Disclaimer:
You should know by now I don't and I can't own Inazuma Eleven or their characters.
Sakurako Shin is mine though c:
Valentine's was nearing, much to the delight of the girls at Raimon. You would be too, if your School had a Soccer Club with Talented and good-looking players. After all, Raimon was famous for Soccer.
Currently, Shin was at the Store, staring intently at something as if it was a life-changing decision.
Which probably was for her.
Hey, If you were Shin, choosing which chocolate brand was better just by looks was a hard decision, especially if you were to give it to someone special.
Her brows knit together in concentration, eyes gazing from one cover to another, as if it would give her the answer to her unvoiced question. Beside her, the three managers had animated sweatdrops running down the top of their heads.
"Um…" Shin started as she reached for the yellow pack. Midori, Aoi, and Akane anticipated eagerly but just as her fingers were to graze against the plastic cover…
She quickly pulled back.
"Sakura-chan, just choose already!" was Aoi's frustrated statement. Shin laughed nervously and rubbed the back of her head, a sheepish grin on her lips.
"I-I just don't know what to choose…" Ducking her head, she played with her fingers in an embarrassed manner. "Besides, this is my first time confessing to anyone, let alone on V-Valentines."
"Ha? But didn't you tell us that you gave chocolates to Kirino-kun last Valentines?" Midori quirked a brow, bemused at the smaller girl's sentence. That was a true fact. Shin really did give chocolate to Kirino Ranmaru last Valentines. She gave it during break period, when she barged into his classroom and practically tackled the feminine male and handing over the chocolates accompanied by a 'Happy Valentine's, Ran-chan~!'. It caught him off-guard, not to mention caused a stir of rumors that they were going out in secret. (Author's note: Shin is in the same grade as Captain and Kirino, which means she's a 2nd year.)
Shin's face quickly took the color of a tomato, the blush only becoming more visible from the paleness of her skin,
"T-That's because Ran-chan is my soulmate, my eternal friend! The chocolates were just… just… And I know what Ran-chan likes cause he tells me, T-Tsurugi-kun isn't Ran-chan so I don't know what he likes!"
The three girls blinked before turning to look at each other.
"I-In any case, l-let's just get both!" With a flustered face, she grabbed both the yellow and white packs from the shelf and stumbled over to the cashier to pay.
"If she ended up getting both..."
"Why'd she have to choose?" Sighing in defeat, the three trudged over the red-head.
At the very end, Shin had made a mess of her House's entire kitchen. The floor dirtied with flour and eggs, the kitchen tables covered with spilled chocolate and milk, and the walls splattered with an unknown substance that Shin didn't and wouldn't like to know.
But with an accomplished smile, she stared down at the chocolates she had made herself (of course, with the help of the three managers, but they left half-way since they would be making chocolates themselves.) "It's perfect!" She squealed and jumped up and down in her place, before walking happily towards one of the Kitchen's drawer and opening it, pulling a bag of clear plastic bags with an array of colors before jogging back to the table.
"I'll definitely give it to him." Shin said in determination once she had finished placing chocolates of different sizes in the clear bags. For an extra touch she had sealed it with a pink ribbon. But out of the many bags, one seemed to stand out.
It was a light purple clear bag, bigger than the others, with bigger chocolates inside. There was a single white chocolate in the bunch, shaped like a rabbit, with the kanji 'ai' written sloppily on it's tummy. This was the chocolate she had made solely for Tsurugi Kyousuke, and she was intent on giving it to him tomorrow.
Where did the courage she had yesterday go? It all seemed to go down the drain the next day.
Earlier in the day she had successfully given most of the Raimon Team their share of chocolates from her, even the Second Team and the Managers, along with the Coach and Counselor when she had passed them by or encountered any of them at the Hallways.
She had no chance to give him the chocolates she had so worked on during practice. It wasn't like she was shy to give it to him, in front of their teammates, no. She had even given one to their captain, Shindou Takuto along with a hug and to Ranmaru, with a playful wink. The thing was when she was about to give it to him, he just looked at his watch and excused himself then left.
It seemed like she'll never have the chance to give it to him.
With a dejected sigh, she slung her bag on her shoulder and waited for Ichino to get out of the restroom so they would walk together.
'It can't be that bad.' Shin thought to herself as she waved good-bye to Ichino, who had a sudden call from his Mother to run some errands. Although she couldn't help but notice the bright letters on Ichino's phone that says 'Kirino Ranmaru' instead of 'Mom' but shrugged it off.
'At least, Ranmaru got me… candies…'
"Sakura-san?"
"Hm?" ears perking up at the mention of her name, Shin looked up with bright curious eyes, only for them to widen at the person who had called her.
It was none other than Tsurugi Kyousuke.
In front of her House.
It took a few minutes for her mind to process everything that was currently going on, but all she could think of was,
'Tsurugi Kyousuke is in front of my House.'
Her face burned as Tsurugi gave a small wave, feeling all the blood rush to her face, making her knees shake. "T-Tsurugi-kun, w-what are you doing here?"
Walking towards the tall boy, she mustered up a shy grin, watching as he shrugged leaned nonchalantly against the Wall. 'Kyaaa! So cool~!'
"Kirino said you had something to give me."
Shin's eyes were wide as saucers as she stared at Kyousuke, mouth agape. Realization dawned upon her as her mind reeled thoughts and put two and two together.
'That… That sneak!' She mentally screamed, hoping that Kirino was eating something and was choking right now.
"Sakura-chan?" Kyousuke lightly tapped her shoulder, making the smaller one jump.
"O-Oh, u-um, y-yeah… Let me just…" Shin fumbled with the zipper of her School bag before pulling out the purple bag and handing it over to the bluenette.
Kyousuke blinked in surprise as a bag was shoved in his face, the sweet scent of chocolate hitting his nose as he stared down at the flushed face of the red-head. After a decent amount of seconds, the initial shock on his face drained was replaced by a growing pink shade on his cheeks.
Plucking the chocolate from her hands, he inspected before opening it, sensing the girl's eyes eyeing him causing an even more evident blush on his cheeks. Popping a small chocolate in his mouth, he chewed shyly, the flavor of the chocolate soothing his taste buds, "It's… It's good."
The way Shin's eyes had light up made the male want to just…
But he was Tsurugi Kyousuke, and he would never do something like that at such an early age. (Hey, they're like, 13 years old!)
Instead, he just leaned down and placed a soft kiss on Shin's forehead.
Well, there you have it.
He kissed her.
Kissed her.
It's just on the forehead, but hey, it's still a kiss.
As he walked past a blushing and dazed Shin behind, he couldn't help but smirk (because Tsurugi Kyousuke never grins – 3-) and wave a hand, not caring if she saw it or not,
"I'll be waiting for Next Valentine's."
