Chapter 1: Realization

Pushing a strand of strawberry red hair out of her eyes, Tira Misu trudged along with the other members of her small outfit. She looked up at the fading sun. She loved sunsets. She stared as the sky's blue faded to turquoise, to pink, to purple. She looked a head of her as she saw her sister clinging to the boy she loved. Chocolate Misu could always show people her true feelings, and herself could not. Though it broke her heart to see her sister all over her love, Carrot Glace, she said not a word. "Ah, what a beautiful sunset," Tira sighed quietly. "Yes it was beautiful," She heard a light voice beside her. She turned and saw the raven haired brother of Carrot, Marron. Marron squatted to smell a lovely flower, but didn't pick it. He's all ways so thoughtful even to plants. He was the only one she could relate to in matters such as beauty of the sky and the majestic ness of nature. Tira looked ahead as the saw a village. Since it was getting late they found an abandoned house. Tira took off her coat and lung it in a corner of the room. She yawned deeply and noticed there was a fire place in it. "Does anyone want to go with me to go get fire wood?" She asked kinda hoping Carrot would volunteer. ""I will, "Marron volunteered. Tira picked up her coat and walked out the door with Marron by her side. They walked out over to the woods and started gathering fire wood. Tira looked at the darkening, purple sky. She breathed a light breath and sighed. " I love the twighlight aky, especially on a summer night," She said looking at Marron. "Yes, I've never really had anyone to watch them with though. No one who understands the beauty of them at least. AS you can tell, Carrot isn't really into that kinda stuff.," He said. "Same here Chocolate never understood it like I did," Tira told him. Marron smiled. " Well.now we can watch it together," he said thoughtfully. Tira blushed. 'He's so sweet and.cute' She thought to herself. Caught up it the moment Tira kissed him on his cheek and went to pick up more fire wood. Marron touched the place where Tira kissed him. He smiled and walked on after her. When they got back Marron threw a ward on it and the fire was set ablaze. Marron kept close t Tira that night, talking to her about stuff like his past, nature, and other stuff like that. Tira didn't pay attention to Chocolate flirting and chasing Carrot. She was beginning to think over her feelings for him. She also found that she developed a fondness for the younger Glace brother. Marron looked out the window noticing the stars. "Hey do you wanna go outside and watch the stars?" He asked. "Sure," She said. No either really noticing, Marron took Tira's hand and held it as they walk outside. They laid on the grass. Tira shivered as the night's air hit her. "Are you cold?" He asked. "A little." She told him. He laid her head on his chest and wrapped his arms around her. She snuggled against his chest. Marron ran his fingers through her hair. Tira smiled. " Do you like anybody?" Tira asked him. He chuckled. " Yea.but.she don't know it" He trailed off " Why not?" She asked. His face saddened a little bit. " She's in love with someone else." Marron trailed off again. " Oh.sorry" She said. " It's ok.So.why do u like Carrot?" He asked. " Uh.Well.I'm starting to re think my feelings for him." She said. "Why?" he asked, she locked her eyes with his. " I'm falling for someone else," She said. She could tell him that she was falling in love with him because he's in love with someone else. He looked kinda surprised when she told him that. Tira closed her eyes and rested her head back on his chest. He breathed in a deep breath. They just laid there in silence for about 30 minutes. Tira drifted off to sleep. Before marron went to sleep he kissed her forehead and thought about how close he was telling he that he loved her. ***next day*** Chocolate woke up first that morning. She rubbed her eyes and looked around the room. She saw Gateau, the blonde muscle man. Miraculously he wasn't near Marron. She saw 'her darling', Carrot. But she couldn't see Marron or Tira. Chocolate jumped up, in a panic and looked outside. She saw Tira and Marron in the front yard. Tira was in Marron's arms sound asleep. Puzzled, she thought 'I didn't know they had something going on.'. Choclate walked back inside and woke Carrot and Gateau up. " Look outside," Chocolate instructed. Gateau and Carrot sleepily looked out the window. Both got bug eyed at the sight of Tira and Marron. "Finally! My brother made a move on a chick! I wonder what they did last night." Carrot said. Gateau kind of looked saddened because he liked Marron. Marron woke up. He found Tira lying on him and saw that they fell asleep outside. Marron carefully picked Tira up and begun to carry he inside. Tira woke up when he picked her up. She slowly opened her eyes. "Good morning Marron," Tira said. He smiled at her and saw everyone staring at them. "Good morning Tira," he responded. They walked inside and saw everyone stare at them " Good morning guys," Tira said. Carrot smirked. ""Good morning , yall probably had a good night too," Carrot said moving his eyebrows up and down. Marron and Tira looked confused at him. "What are you insinuating?" She asked him. "You know. I mean yall did look pretty comfortable in each others arms over there," Carrot said. "Nothing happened happened, we just spent all night talking that's all," Tira told him. "Uh-huh, Sure, you just keep thinking that," Carrot said as he walked out the door. Marron sighed. Chocolate pulled her sister aside. "What really happened?" she asked . Tira sighed exasperatedly. "Nothing all we did was talk. I swear!" Tira exclaimed. "Okie," Chocolate said. Marron walked outside to where his brother was. "Yall might not have did anything, but do you like her?" he asked "No only as a friend," Marron said. " You're not a good liar Marron," His brother looked at him. Marron sighed. " I never was." He said barely over a whisper. Carrot smiled. " I knew you did.so.are yall a couple yet?" He asked. " Sadly no." Marron said. " Go in there and ask her out," Carrot said. Marron blushed. " I couldn't.I would be to nervous," Marron told his brother. Carrot rolled his eyes. Marron walked back inside. Chocolate and Tira were making breakfast. Sushi and eggs. Marron walked into the kistchen. " Hello Tira, Chocolate," He greeted them. " Hey Marron," they both responded. Tira looked back and smiled at him. He smiled back. " Marron can u go get the boys and tell them breakfast is ready?" Chocolate said it more as a demand instead of a question. Marron got Gateau and Carrot and they all sat and ate. *~*~*~ After breakfast~*~*~*

" Do u want to go walking around town later?" Marron asked Tira after breakfast. "Sure," She answered. " I have a funny feeling about this town," Marron said. He was good at sensing if there was trouble lurking about. That afternoon Tira and Marron walked around the small village. They walked in an awkward silence. " Umm.Tira.you know how you said that you were falling in love with someone else.who is it? I mean.do I know him?" Marron asked shyly. Tira looked at the ground. She was too nervous to tell him that she liked him. " Uh.yea.you know him pretty well." She trailed off. Marron smiled looking to the ground, then back at her, locking his eyes with hers. " Can I ask you a question?" He asked her. 'Oh my god! Maybe he's gonna ask me out' she thought. Marron looked deep into he eyes. " Do you." was as far as he got before they both were sucked into a vortex type hole. When the landed, they were in awkward positions. Both blushed and quickly got up. Everyone else was there. " Why did you call us here Big Momma?" Marron asked quickly before anybody could make any funny remarks. "I called yall here because there's a." Big Momma started but Carrot interrupted. " There's a ball with pretty girls there, that I could meet!" Carrot said and started drooling. Chocolate hit him really hard. " Well your half right. There is a ball but you're there,because the sorcerer is going to be there." Big Momma said. Tira and Chocolate began to jump up and down and squeal with delight that they were going to go to the ball. "Darling! You're going to be my date!" Chocolate squealed, squeezing Carrot to her. "Can't.breathe." Carrot said. "Umm.I think you're suffocating Carrot, Chocolate" Tira told her sister. Chocolate let go of Carrot and he fell to the floor. " Darling, are you okie?" Chocolate questioned passionately. A comical anime sweat drop appeared on Carrots face. ***~~~**~~*~Later that day~*~~**~~~*** Tira Misu looked around anxiously for the right dress at the department store, She wanted one that would make Marron notice her. " Ah ha!" She exclaimed. A red silk dress with black tie- ups. The top looked like a corset and it showed her figure very well. The bottom was silky red and flowed over her tiny feet. It was lined at the bottom with black see through lace. 'Perfect!' she thought. She paid for it and ran off to find the others.
