-------------

Nagi has been infatuated with her since the moment Schwartz had stolen her from her bed. Her comatose state angered him, and made him hate Takatori even more. Ever since Aya had woken up he had taken to watching her at the flower store. He knew almost everything she liked, chocolates, flowers, candy, everything.

He had gotten hell from his other teammates, especially Schuldig. Schuldig would read his mind at every possible chance, teasing him about his little 'crush'. When Crawford has first found out, he lectured Nagi for hours, about not fraternizing with the enemies sister, and if he wouldn't desist from pursuing after his infatuation, then he'd better not put the team in jeopardy. Nagi, of course, would never do that; his team would always come first!

Nagi was around the corner watching Aya and her friend Sakura talk about various things. Luckily, he was in hearing range, so he was also listening to their conversation. "Oh Sakura, I wish that they sold Chrysanthemums here. I hate it when Oniisan has to special order them for me. They always take so long to get here, and by the time they do; their lifespan are almost done."

"Yeah, I know what you mean. I wish they had Tiger lily's' here. They're mum's favorite flowers, and her birthday is coming up, and I'd really like to get her some. Oh, wait, isn't your birthday coming up too?"

"Yeah, in about two weeks," she smiled.

"Are you going to have a party?" Sakura asked.

"Hm, I might, but I don't think I'll invite too many people. Just my Oniisan and his friends, and you of course!"

"That sounds great! I'll get you something great!" Sakura answered cheerily.

"Okay, it's going to be on the 14 of May. I'll call you with the details later. Okay?"

"Yeah, well, I've gotta hit the books, see you tomorrow Aya!" Sakura strolled off passing Nagi, who had quickly ducked behind a trash can. When she was far enough away, and Aya was inside, he stood up; the little wheels in his head turning. And thus his attempts to woo her started.

Aya's party was almost over; the cake had been eaten, the presents opened, and of course she had been embarrassed by the guys the whole time. The boys were cleaning up the mess as she escorted Sakura to the door. They said their goodbyes quickly, and Sakura rushed home.

Aya said goodnight to the boys and headed up to her room. When she opened the door, she found a bunch of Chrysanthemums lying on her bed in the nicest arrangement she had ever seen. She looked them over and found nothing asides from a card with her name on it, written in an elegant script. She looked around her room quickly, looking for a trace of who could have left her favorite flowers on her bed. Then she noticed the window open, scrunching her nose, she knew she hadn't opened it, so she rushed over to it. She stuck the upper part of her body, attempting to look for the person who might have left these for her; but there was no one there. So she shut the window and closed the curtains.

Nagi was hidden deep in the shadows, almost becoming one. He had seen her reactions of joy and of fear, and felt mildly confident. The sooner he had her, the sooner he would get rid of these feelings.
