SURPRISES!!
The teenage Shaman, Asakura Yoh, was preparing for Christmas Party. He already send all the card for all of his friends. He just hope all of his friends can come and celebrate together. He is hoping that this year will have a better Christmas. What he wishes is come true…
And it's happen when it's Christmas Eve…
"hmmm…haaah…", Yoh sit at the couch, sighing.
"What are u sighing at?", Anna come toward him, with her arm at her waist. Yoh turn his head to face her. He smile.
"Nothing, just about the party. I think no one can come, they already have another plan to do…"
"So? What are you going to do now?" she sit beside him and look at his face. Yoh start thinking. Suddenly a bulb appears above his head. Yoh quickly turn around but his forehead crushes Anna's.
"Aww!! Itai!!", Yoh rub his forehead.
"SO do I!!" she rub it and glare at Yoh. Yoh look at her, he smile sheepishly.
"I got an idea!" He said. "And what is it?" Anna ask him. "Lets celebrate the Christmas party!"
"With who?" Anna ask him, curiously. "Just both of us!" Yoh said cheerfully.
"Just both of us? Then, we didn't have to prepare for anything. Cook for dinner Yoh", Anna stand up and start to walk away, but Yoh take her hand and pull her. She lose her balance and fall on Yoh's lap.
"Hey! What are you doing?" Anna asked him angry. Yoh place her arm around her and smile. "I didn't want to cook Anna. Lets go somewhere…"
Anna look up at him, she raise her eyebrow. "GO? But it's freezing outside" She said, still sit at Yoh's lap. "Daijyoubu yo…because it's winter…beside, you can wear your jacket Anna…" he smile at her. Anna look at him. "Okay…if that what you want. If I catch a cold, you are the one to blame", she look down, still sit at his lap.
"Aww Anna, you're not that weak aren't you?" Yoh smile at her. He touches her nose with his index finger. Anna slap his hand and she stand up.
"Okay, if you finish, wait for me outside Yoh…" she walk upstairs and close her bedroom door. "Okay Anna…"
Yoh wait for her outside. He get impatient, so when he is about to entered Anna's room, Anna open the door and slam him. Yoh fall down and Anna look at him. "What are you doing, sit in front of my room?" Yoh sit up, his hand at his nose. He look up to her and smile "Nothing, I just impatient to wait for you…"
"Oh…I thought you want to spy me, when I change my cloth", she look at him without expression as she start to walk downstairs.
'Well…If I can, I'll be happy, Anna…" he smile at her. Anna stop and turn around. She slap him hard.
"Aww..Anna…I'm just joking…" he rub his cheek.
They are now outside….
Anna didn't say anything, until they reach the lake near their house. "Now, where do you want to go?"
"Oh…hmmm…Why don't we go to the bazaar? I heard there is a lot's of things there…" he said.
So they go to the bazaar, which is at the hotel. Yoh and Anna entered the lobby and they go inside the elevator. After they are at the front door, Yoh opened it and both of them saw so many little shop and it's very crowded.
"Waaa…there is a lot of things in here…", Yoh says with cheerful. "Let's go at that place, he takes Anna hand and pull her. "Hey, don't pull me, beside, I didn't give you any permission to take my hand"
"Oh…sorry..I just afraid if we get separate, Anna, because this place is so full. So..can I?" He held his hand. "That what you must do.." she smile at him and take his hand. They walk over to many place. It's almost 9 o'clock when they walk to the last shop.
When Yoh look at so many bracelets, he look at Anna. Then he saw Anna's eyes' sparkling 'looks like she want one of them…' he think. Yoh come closer to her, he sees the one Anna wants then he smile. When he about to say something, Anna walk away and take his hand.
"Hey, don't you want to buy it?"
"What? I don't want to…" she look away and walk to another place. Yoh know Anna want that bracelet so much. When they about to walk out from the bazaar, Yoh let go Anna's hand.
"Where do you want to go?" Anna ask him. "Just wait here okay, I forgot something" Anna nod as Yoh start walk in to the bazaar again. She always believe Yoh, that's why she didn't spy on him, anywhere he go.
In a few minutes he come back and take Anna's hand again. "Sorry to make you wait. Where do you want to eat Anna?", he ask her, his hand inside the pocket. "Just anywhere. As long as it's delicious" she say, she hold Yoh's hand tight. "I know where it is..." and then, they start to walk outside the hotel.
Yoh take Anna to a small café near the hotel. "Do you want to sit outside or inside?" he ask her. "Of course inside. But if we sit outside we can see the lake over there, but it's freezing Yoh…"
Yoh smile at her "Okay then, let's search the place inside where we can see the lake" Yoh said while he take Anna hand and go inside. They search for the place (he let Anna choose the best place) and they order for the meal.
"Looks like this place already prepared for tomorrow nee…" Anna said while she was looking over the lake.
"You're right. Tomorrow is Christmas day" Yoh look at the lake too, but he wasn't really looked at the lake, he look at Anna's reflection on the window.
"And…" Anna turn to look at him. Yoh look at her, like he didn't see anything before "Can you stop looking at me all the time?" Anna smiles at him. Yoh blush when he heard what Anna said. "Umm…well...Umm…I...I'm sorry…U hehehehe…." He smiles sheepishly at her and run his finger to his cheek. He can feel his cheek was hot.
"So? What's wrong with you? You are acting strange all the time" Anna ask him. Their meal already set and they start eating. Yoh look up at her and look down again. He stare at the food, suddenly his face looks serious. Yoh take something in his pocket and called her name.
"Nee Anna…" Anna look up at him "What is it?"
"I…. I want to give you…this…well, it's just a little present, but I will happy if you like it…", he give the present to Anna and she take it.
"Wow, thank you Yoh. Is this a Christmas present? Well I do have one for you too…" she says as she take it from her jacket. She give him and Yoh eyes sparkling. He takes it cheerfully and hold it tight. Anna look at the present that Yoh give, it's a box and it's very thin. Yoh's present, like a cube and it wrap so tidy.
'I wonder what is inside it?' both of them thinking the same.
Both of them look at each other and say "Can I open it?" surprised about what they say in the same time, they laugh. Yoh look at Anna, Anna look at him, both of them look each other again, but this time with smile.
"Yes you can...Anna...Yoh" They said it at the same time again. So both of them start to open their present. When Yoh know what's the present is he say it with cheerful.
"Waaa….Anna, you give me a watch! And it's very cool!! I like it, Anna. San-kyuu.." Yoh said to her. He open the box and start to wear it. "Hey is it match with me?" Anna look at him and smile, she blush a little.
"Of course Yoh. I buy it for you. I know which one that is match for you… Glad you like it. Beside, now you can go home in time after your run training" Anna look down and start to unpack the thin box that he give her. Yoh just laugh after Anna said that. When Anna open the box, her eyes widen. She look up at Yoh, he smile at her.
"Do you like it? I know you want it Anna.." he take the box from her hand and he pull it out. It's the bracelet that they see at the bazaar. He knows Anna want it, but when she sees the price, she refuse to buy it. But know, Yoh buy it for her, of course she's happy. Yoh held his hand
"Give me your hand" he said. Anna gives him her right hand and Yoh put the bracelet on. The carved look very nice and sparkling. Yoh know what Anna like is the carved.
Anna look at the bracelet. She held the bracelet and takes it close to her chest. Yoh smile when he sees Anna, 'she must be love it very much' he said.
"Thank you Yoh. I'll always wear it" she said.
"No problem. Now let's eat, then we can walk around again" he say. Anna nod and they finish the meal.
Yoh and Anna, already reach the lake near their mansion. As they pass the lake, Anna suddenly run toward the bench, Yoh follow her. They sit side by side.
"Want some drink?" Yoh ask her. Anna nod and he take the hot drink from the machine box. He give the drink to her. "Arigatou…"she said.
'It's been long time nee…" Yoh said. "You mean when you go to America before?" Anna ask. Yoh nod. "I give you the hot drink too that time" he laugh. Anna look up at the sky. It's winter, but you can still see the star glowing.
"it's almost Christmas" she said. Yoh look at her. He smile. "Nee…I have another present for you, Anna. Maybe it's to fast, but I know you will like it" Anna look at him weird.
"What present? You already give me a present Yoh" she ask him. Yoh look at her, smile again. "Close your eyes, Anna" he commands her. Anna do what he said. He take her hand, Anna feel something that Yoh give and she open her eyes. When she open her eyes, Yoh kiss her. Anna blush and she push Yoh away. Yoh look at her, smile again. "Surprise" he said. Still, she didn't understand what's the meaning, but when she look at her hand, it's really…really surprise for her. Yoh give her a ring.
"Yoh…this is…" Anna look at the ring and look at Yoh then look at the ring again. Yoh smile at him, he blush a little. "Well…hehehe…I want to give you that ring, after I have enough money from the part time job that I have, but it's the cheap one Anna. I just hope you want to receive it" he look at her eyes. Anna look at him, she still didn't believe that Yoh just give her a ring.
"Yoh…oh Yoh….How many surprises that you give to me? First the bracelet, and now the ring….what's the other one? Oh…the..the kiss…." Her face is red as a tomato when she said the last one. Yoh look at her, he blush too, but not like Anna.
"So, do you like it?" Yoh said. Anna look at him, her eyes sparkling and she still blush. When Yoh was about to say anything, Anna hug him. He was surprise, but he hug her back. "You know what?" Anna say. Yoh look down at her, he is taller than her now. "A ring is what a girls want from his boyfriend. But you're not my boyfriend Yoh" Yoh hear what she say, he look at her, confuse. "What do you mean Anna?" Anna look up at him, she still huge him, Yoh can see his reflection at her eyes. Anna smile at him, she blush a little.
"No…you're not my boyfriend Yoh, you're my fiancé" she said, clearly. Yoh smiles at her. "Yes I'm Anna" he lean down and kiss her. Anna kiss him back.
'It was a very beautiful memory, that Yoh give to me, in Christmas Eve'
Both of them start to walk to their mansion.
"2 years nee…Yoh" Anna says as they reach the gate. Yoh look at her, "What do you mean?" Anna look at the gate. She tried to hide her blush, but Yoh can see it.
"I mean… 2 years later this ring will become the weeding ring…" she said. Yoh look at her, surprise about what she just said. His eyes is sparkling and he smile. He hug her from behind and say "So, you want to get married when we are 18?" he ask. Anna turn around and say "Yes…" she smile at him and Yoh smile back at her. Anna stand on her toe and they kiss each other again.
