Question

"You like my sister, don't you?" queried Miyuki, with no expectation of an answer. She didn't need one, in any case. She was sure it was written all over his face.

"I—what?" spluttered Chiaki, the chair beneath him rocking back slightly from the force of his astonishment.

Miyuki continued to handwrite her essay, her unerring concentration and impeccable form making a mockery of her sister's. "Are you going to ask her to date you?" piped the miniature Konno, abruptly meeting his eyes.

"What makes you think I—" began Chiaki, turning an unattractive shade of pink.

Miyuki's eyes widened; her mouth dropped open a fraction. "Sorry—were you trying to be discreet?"


A/N: Two hilarious characters. One manic writer. Naturally, only chaos like this would ensue. Apologies for the brevity of this piece.

NOTE: From here on out, I'll be taking on the 50scenes challenge (from LJ) for ChiakixMakoto, so don't be expecting updates in Stitches. Rather, I will be making new posts into a new story, 50 Impressions in Time. They have the same effect; they are all brief pieces, more or less, but I just want to keep it organized, so they'll be there rather than here. When that is complete, I will return to working on Stitches.

I would also love it if you would be so kind as to take a gander at 50 Ways to Love a Time Traveler, on your way out. It was the 50 themes 1sentence challenge I took up from LJ one whimsical evening that inspired me to move onto the 50scenes challenge. (I hate to say, I'm rather fond of it.) If you happen to have some time, let me know what you think of these new projects of mine!

Finally, thanks for reading. I really do appreciate and adore all of you for sticking with me this long. Here's to much more fun? Have a bold day!
