Soichiro tapped his fingers on the council table, waiting for his council meeting to begin. An old man stepped forward and cleared his throat, "Today we'll be announcing the new cherry picking laws and how it'll affect our economy. In section 2 a…." Soichiro felt his gaze become blurry as he daydreamed about Yukino.
"I thought she liked me. I mean, I know everything about her, and she probably knows everything about me. Where did I go wrong?" He thought, blindly ignoring the old man, "I thought I had everything a girl could want! Looks, brain, riches! Did I come on to strong or something?" He pounded his hand into the table and yelled, "That must be it!" and ran out the door.
Soichiro burst out the front gates of the castle on his white stallion….and right into Tsubasa Shibahime.
"Ow! That's my body you know! Really, men can be soooo inconsiderate to the childish one? Gosh, you're such a rude one! Why don't you care about MY feelings?" Tsubasa yelled before realizing Soichiro had accidentally run into her. She gasped as she turned a bright red and stood up.
"I'm sorry little girl, I didn't mean to hurt you," Soichiro said getting off to help Tsubasa up. Tsubasa's eyes grew wide and angry as she heard the words "little girl" She slapped his hand away and shrieked, "Little girl? I'm anything BUT a little girl! I'm a mature adult with many mature interests like alcohol and men!" She went on like this for another five minutes until Soichiro touched her shoulder and she calmed down.
"Really, I apologize. How about I take you for some ice cream?" Soichiro offered, helping Tsubasa on to the horse. She blushed as she held on to his broad shoulders and sighed in a romantic way.
"Thank you very much, Your Highness," Tsubasa said flirtatiously as they slowly rode through town. Soichiro nodded before he heard a familiar laugh and stopped the horse. His head snapped as he looked for the girl's laugh and found her, conversing with the townspeople.
"Yukino…" Soichiro whispered as she laughed again before he got off and walked into the ice cream store with Tsubasa. Tsubasa gave Yukino the evil eye behind her back as she followed Soichiro. Soichiro sighed as the two chocolate bowls were being prepared.
"What's wrong, Prince Soichiro?" Tsubasa asked in a caring tone as she licked her lips at the ice cream being placed in front of her. He sighed and said, "This girl I'm in love with turned me down flat." He took a bite as Tsubasa ate hers like a wild dog. Tsubasa grunted, her gesture for saying that she had heard. She swallowed and had a brilliant idea.
"Why don't you play hard to get? You know….get a girlfriend to make her jealous! Make her realize what she's missing!" Tsubasa said stabbing her spoon into the table. Soichiro looked a little shocked and said, "What? What girl can be as cool as Yukino Miyazawa?" Tsubasa sighed and said, "Men….Why don't I be your girlfriend? It'll definitely make her jealous!"
Soichiro sat there a few minutes and contemplated. He did love Yukino, but would making her jealous be the right thing? He looked at Tsubasa and held his hand out.
"I'll try it. I want to make her mine, so I'll be your boyfriend." Tsubasa jumped across the table and tackled Soichiro before dragging him out of the store.
"As my boyfriend, we'll have to hold hands a lot, and hug, and all other things!" Tsubasa said pulling him close. They began walking when Yukino passed by. She stopped, looked back at the two for a while and thought, "But…I thought he was in love with me. And I was just going to ask him to be mine…I'll get him back from that girl. I will…"
