A short Suusashi. LOVE THIS PAIRING~~~~

The tailor unwrapped the wind of measuring tape and placed it against the red silk, quickly memorizing the length she needed. She turned her head up as she heard someone open the door. She smiled; it was her most favorite customer. Even though she wasn't supposed to have one, she couldn't help it anyway.

"Hello there! How was your day?" The blonde haired tailor reached back and undid her bandana, letting her curls fall past her shoulders. She exchanged a hug with her friend.

The blue haired customer had worn a dark violet kimono today, with a lavender sash and tiny flower patterns over it. She'd let her hair out today, not something she did often, and it was straight and reached her shoulders. She'd even worn it in a side part.

"My days just getting started actually! I only woke up a few hours ago." She scratched the back of her head sheepishly. The blonde waved her finger and smacked the hand away from her friend's hair, before smoothening it out and pouting. "You really shouldn't mess up your hair!"

The customer giggled, "You're not my mother! Anyways, how is the kimono going?"
The blonde haired tailor hesitated. "I just started…" Her customer pouted, "Am I really that unimportant?"
"No, no! That's not it all!"
"He, he, I'm just messing with you. Tell me when you're done okay? I have to go now so bye~"
The blue haired customer gave a small wave as she exited the shop, and the tailor sighed in content. She went back to drawing on and cutting the silk, till she had the pieces she needed for the kimono.

Several hours passed by, and she was almost done with kimono. She sighed quietly to herself and put down the cloth and needle, finally taking a break. Clearly her friend had gone to meet a boy, and the tailor giggled at the thought. A cold silence filled the shop and she stopped. There were no people except her; what was she laughing for?

She clenched her fists in her lap. She liked everything to be precise and perfect. When things didn't turn out how she had wanted, she always put on a brave face and told herself it was okay. She wanted her life to be like unfinished kimono beside her: measured and perfect. A few tears came into her eyes as she tried to push back sad memories of her childhood. She let out a strangled sob and covered her face with her hands.

The door clicked open again, and she lifted her head up to see a young man with green hair come in. It was styled in a ponytail, and his bangs framed his face cutely, but also gave it an edgy look. He wore traditional green samurai clothing and had a kendo sword strapped to his waist. His eyes widened as he saw her wet face, and immediately rushed over.
"Why are you crying?"
She quickly wiped away her tears on the back of her hand and looked down, "It is nothing that you should be concerned about. Y-your order is on the rack near the door."

He grabbed her hand and forced her to look him in the eyes. His spectacles were slipping down his nose, but that only made his eyes even more visible. Her lip trembled and she embraced him in a hug, crying into his shoulder. He stiffened, but wrapped one arm around her small waist and patted her head gently. "There, there, it'll be alright."

She nodded once and trembled, clenching her fists in his shirt. He blushed, but tightened his grip on her. Her meek voice whispered quietly. "Promise you won't leave."

"I promise."

Shugo Chara! characters.

Tailor - Suu
Samurai - Musashi

I think not including their names helped with the feeling of the story. I know, its a little OOC, but its fanfiction. Deal with it. Suu x Musashi FTW.
