Chapter 4--


Zoe smiled at the brunette playing with the doves. Running a slim hand through her long, blond hair she walked nearer to the trees, seeking shade on this hot day. Placing her sunglasses on top of her head, she watched Takuya carefully, like a mother watching their child. She couldn't believe that by the end of the week, she wouldn't be able to see Takuya anymore. "Zoe, come and play with Takuya!" he called out to her, arms moving up and down trying to get her attention. She giggled as Takuya chased a small dove around in circles, making the boy dizzy. She walked over, brushing her blond hair out of her jade eyes. "Takuya grabbed hold of her right hand dragging her into the white birds. She laughed at Takuya, as the brunette tried to catch another one of the birds. Takuya stopped suddenly, spotting two elderly ladies pointing and whispering. "Zoe, can we go somewhere else now?" he asked fidgeting nervously, under the gaze of the two ladies. Zoe looked over her shoulder at the women and frowned, "Yeah, we'll go to another side of the park." Takuya forced a smile and grabbed her small, peach hand in his larger one.

Zoe's emerald eyes scanned the area for something to take Takuya's mind off those ladies. She spotted an ice cream cart and pulled Takuya over to it. "What kind, Takuya?" She asked the brunette, searching for her favorite ice cream, Moo! "An ice cream sandwich…" Takuya said silently. After paying Takuya followed his blond friend to a deserted playground. Chocolate brown eyes gazed at the slides and monkey bars. His mom and dad took him here everyday when he was little. "Takuya," he looked into her nervous green eyes, "you never told me about your parents. Why don't they visit more often?" Zoe watched her companion's burnt sienna eyes darken as he whispered, almost inaudible, "They don't have much time to drop by at the institute since Shinya has soccer practice, and when he doesn't have practice my parent's work." Takuya rested his head on his tanned arms and sighed. It was quiet, the only sounds coming from the wrapper paper of Takuya's ice cream. "Well, I'm sure they're trying their best!" Her words seemed to cheer him up a bit. "You wanna come swing with Takuya?" he asked childishly, jumping up and down excitedly. "I would be more than happy."


Blond hair tossed in the gentle breeze as the sun set in the horizon. Zoe stared admirably up at the violets and oranges in the cloudless sky. A few stars were scattered about the sky and twinkled like never before. Beside her sat the equally amazed Takuya, laying on the grass spread-eagle style. Zoe turned to her friend and spoke silently, "Out of all the artists in the world, this particular artist whose canvas is the sky, has to be my favorite." Takuya nodded solemnly to the teen beside him, "At the institute, it's kind of rare to see stuff like this." The light haired girl checked her watch and groaned, "It's time to go, Takuya." She grabbed her black purse and smiled slightly. Takuya finally caught a bird, and was now whispering things to the small, blue feathered friend. Gentle hands cradled the chaffinch, brown eyes admiring the bluish color of its hood and the white wing bars. Reluctantly at first, the brunette let the bird fly into the horizon. He got up, brushing off his khaki pants and walked up to where his friend was. He gave her a wide smile and took her hand in his, pulling her alongside him.


Mimi ran through the playground yelling, "Henry! I said that I give up! You can come out now!" People in the park area looked at the light haired brunette as she ran around, searching in trees, slides, and other play equipment. "Where is he?" she asked herself and plopped down on a nearby swing. "There YOU are!" Mimi looked up and met a pair of jade eyes and a blue hair. Mimi glared as the boy said, "Girls get lost too easily." Henry smiled at her making her cool off for a second. Finally, Mimi sighed and grabbed hold of his right arm dragging him away from the park. Henry heard the girl mumble a few things and he questioned, "Did Henwy make Mimi sad?" Mim looked over at the boy with midnight blue hair. Sighing, she said, "No, Henwy- I mean Henry didn't make Mimi sad." Henry perked up immediately and pulled her to an ice cream truck. Mimi slapped her hand against her forehead and grumbled, "I'm gonna grow broke all thanks to the blue haired pig."

Henry sat down on the small, brown park bench beside Mimi. Mimi looked at the small, pink watch on her wrist and groaned. She still had ten minutes with her 'friend' and there was nothing to do. The brunette heard a few drops hitting the ground and turned to an embarrassed Henry. Confused, Mimi looked at her brand new white tennis shoes to see a big drop of chocolate ice cream running along the side of the shoe. "Sorry," Henry said, rubbing the back of his head sheepishly. Mimi's peach face flushed with anger and she muttered, "It's fine." The blue haired boy's face brightened as he jumped off the park bench, dumping the rest of his ice cream in Mimi's hair, "Great!" The light haired brunette's left eyebrow twitched in annoyance. This was going to be a long ten minutes…


A/N: This chapter is short but it's a start and hopefully I can write longer chapters later. But anyways, I added a little insert for Mimi and Henry. Well, next time they got to a fair and the chapter will be better and longer… maybe. Please review! Love ya!
