Miator Hallway:
Tamao walked down the hallway with the book of exam notes. She had spent a good chunk of the year compressing all her notes into one book. She was on her way back from the administration office. It was there that she had discovered her failure in all her exams. She had not passed one test due to a lack of studying. And she knew the source of her problems; Nagisa.
Nagisa's cute smile and bright hair always placed Tamao in a state of bliss. When she focused too much on it she was unable to do anything for hours. When she was super distracted she had a habit of reading over her work without actually in taking any content.
As she walked down the hall her head was hung low. All the other students around her seemed so happy that the exams were over. Tamao was just depressed and unable to see past her own relationship problems. Even now she kept wondering what she would do when she finally saw Nagisa. Summer break was over as of the other day but yet the red head was no where in sight.
As she walked she spotted Chikaru talking with some girls from Lulim. They seemed totally distracted by the way Tamao looked. Chikaru smiled and openly welcomed Tamao. "How did exams go for you, not that great?"
Tamao tired to turn her frown into a smile. "I did alright because I studied. So how is are the preparations for the play?" Tamao obviously tried to switch the topic so that she could stop wallowing in misery.
Chikaru smiled and made a neko pose. That moment seemed to evoke a deep reaction inside Tamao because she actually smiled. "Everything is going great with the play. I even asked Remon and Kizuna to help out." The older girl leaned against the hall's wall and crossed her legs to give Tamao a nice view of her cute pink plaid skirt.
Just as Tamao was about to say something serious she spotted Nagisa walking down the hall with books in hand. Nagisa was wearing a pink ribbon in her hair that was no doubt a gift from Shizuma. With a sigh she gathered up the black folds of her skirt and walked away in the opposite direction.
Nagisa seemed to walk faster in order to catch up with her best friend. By time she reached the spot where Chikaru stood Tamao was no where in sight. Nagisa panted for a while bending over and then looked up at the dark haired girl. "Shouldn't you be at Lulim?"
Chikaru smiled, "Normally I would be but I'm becoming self conscious about Tamao. It's just like when you and Shizuma broke up. I don't wish to see lovers be so lonely." Chikaru seemed to be looking Nagisa up and down skeptically.
"So what's up with you?' she asked in a diligent tone. Nagisa smiled at the way Chikaru was treating her. "I'm fine but what about Tamao?" Chikaru's evident frown marked it all out for her.
Chikaru smiled and munched on a cookie hidden in her skirt pocket. "But I have a plan to fix all Tamao's problems. Only the head of the Cosplay detectives club could be so brilliant." Chikaru's small laugh and smile was almost reassuring. Nagisa sighed and looked out the stained glass windows.
Miator lunch room:
"So you have been at this school for a while?" Chikaru's question made the younger girl squirm. "I've never seen you before" she said while looking the blue haired girl up and down.
"I've been at this school since year three. Most people don't notice I exist though." At that she dipped her head down and made a cute sound. Chikaru nearly jumped out of her chair with excitement.
"You're perfect; young, unknown, cute, cat like, small, brilliant hair, and angelic like." Chikaru's many words began to make the other girl very self conscious. "What did you say your name was?" Chikaru blurted this at the girl with joy.
"Uh, I'm Miyuka, Miyuka Kayo." Chikaru smiled and put a finger against her cherry blossom hair pins. "Wonderful name" then without shame Chikaru asked, "Are you single?" The younger girl coughed over her tea and nearly had a wheezing fit. She slowly nodded. "Perfect" Chikaru said with a gleam in her eyes.
Astraea Hill Library:
Miyuka was pushed into the room by a very overconfident Chikaru. She tried not to make any noise because it was a library. Silently she whispered, "But I'm really shy." Chikaru pushed on her fluffy skirt. "Nonsense you'll do just fine. Tamao is really nice." Chikaru pushed the shy girl up against the poetry section and then dashed away to watch in the privacy of disguise.
Miyuka shook all over in nervousness as she waited. Many girls passed by, most of them Miyuka recognized for their ability at avoiding her. Slowly she was loosing confidence and getting fidgety when a blue haired beauty came up from behind a bookcase. The poor girl was overcome by lusty feelings and she couldn't hold them back. For so many years now she had strongly admired this blue haired girl from the poetry club. Suddenly she was right in front of her.
Tamao reached the poetry section frowning and on the verge of frustration. Oddly a small blue haired girl was crying with a smile on her face. This odd sight made Tamao focus in on the younger girl. When their eyes met the Miator student began to walk away slowly. Tamao caught up with her and grabbed her elbow. A stack of books feel and everyone called attention to them.
Miyuka in all her shyness freaked out when she noticed everyone looking at her. Without really thinking about it she dived into the other girl's arms. Tamao seemed to instinctively shield the girl. Together they stood ignoring the large crowd of anxious girls.
From far away Chikaru smiled to herself as she flipped through a book on kites. She seemed to be very good at match making. Closing the book she left the room leaving the books she had purposely knocked over. The scene of this day burned into her memory.
