Yuki no Tenshi

Part 3 : Heiji and Kazuha

by Aqua Bluewater



I still have your gift, my little snow angel...

So don't worry, I will be all right...



"Look, look, Heiji! Snow!!" Kazuha tugged Heiji's sleeve breathlessly. "I haven't seen snow for ages!!"

"You saw tons of snow last year," grumbled Heiji, and Kazuha pouted.

"You just don't have the right mood, do you? Now, as it is the first snow of the year..." Then she pulled out what she had in her bag. "Ta da!"

On her hand were small figures of angels, one girl-angel in pink, the other boy-angel in blue.

Heiji blinked.



Good luck, you whispered...

To me, to my future...

I tried to shrug you off, but...

You still follow me around, hugging me with warmth...



"What is THAT?" Heiji said, looking at the two figures. Kazuha smiled happily.

"I got that from the new Good Luck Charm shop over there. When the first snow of the year falls, and then a couple shares these figures-," then she put the girl-angel on Heiji's hand, using the thread to tie it around the wrist. "And then they will be protected and happy forever. I'm having this boy-angel."

Heiji blinked once again.



I can't get you off my mind...

My real good luck charm...

Is you, always have been you...

My little snow angel...



"That's why you are my snow angel..." Heiji said softly as he gazed at the dangling girl-angel around his wrist.

"Hm?" Kazuha looked around. "Heiji? What did you say?"

"Nothing," Heiji grumbled once again. "I just said you are so superstitious, I'm betting you will be having me dressed in good luck charm clothes."

Kazuha glared at Heiji, then thought better of it, and grinned. "How did you know? You know, at that Jinjya we visited last month, they were selling demon-killing clothes..."

"...*groan*..."

With Kazuha chatting away, Heiji glanced again at the girl-angel, and said in a soft voice.



"My little snow angel..."
