A/N: Hey! It's me again :P This songfic is based on Ryuzaki Sakuno's character song "Haru no Ao" and is dedicated to my cousin Kai who requested it! Enjoy!

Blue Spring

Day cherry blossoms bloom/ Sending feathers of feelings/ Releasing desire into the sky/ Song, please reach/ Bloom the flower of victory I pray forever

The fiery orange dipped down the horizon, as golden rays and purplish pink hues filled the sky. The patter of dilapidated feet diminished, leaving only a pair of soft taps on the concrete.

Sakuno gazed upon the receding sun, Seigaku tennis bag slung against her shoulder. Walking across the sidewalk, she stopped against a bridge that brought her back memories, ones she promised to keep forever.

At the place where this yearning was born I linger over the fence/ Lining our shoulders/ Ah I want to walk I can't keep fawning on

"Gambatte, Ryoma-kun!" "Ohayo gozaimas!" "M-m-my hair isn't that l-long."

Those days I ran the ball I can't waste them, I want to become stronger

She continued walking, stopping at a vending machine. Placing her bags next to the machinery, she took out some yen. It clicked, and a drink rolled out.

Scattering petals/ Colouring the soul blue/ Releasing this desire into the sky/ Feelings, please reach/ Even future or dreams/ This hand is able to take hold

Picking her things up, Sakuno popped open the can. Cold, fizzy grape liquid ran down her throat as she continued walking toward her destination.

Swaying the plaits/ The spring winds stream through over the fence/ The time we met/ Ah I won't forget/ The sifted sunlight swaying through eyelashes

She stood in front of Ginka, taking a racquet out as she hit the can into the trash bin. Looking ahead, she saw someone at the courts that she undoubtedly knew was the one that asked her to meet him here.

Those days I print into my mind I won't say good bye/ Is it OK?

The day cherry blossoms bloom/ Sending feathers of feelings/ Releasing this desire into the sky/
Song, please reach/ Bloom the flower of victory I pray forever

White cap, stocky build, cocky frame. This stranger reminded her so much of him. Even she cannot tell if her longtime crush has bypassed as heartache began spreading through her body, legs shaking with anxiety.

Scattering petals/ Colouring the soul blue/ Releasing this desire into the sky/
Feelings, please reach/ Even future or dreams/ This has been able to take hold

But Sakuno had matured. Shoulder-length hair, Seigaku Girls' National Champion Tennis Captain, 1st Honors student, and Student Council President were only a few phrases that described the changes made to her in the past five years. Except her love for him. Tears began glittering on her face as she heard a familiar voice, the one she'd been waiting to hear for so long.

The day cherry blossoms bloom/ Sending feathers of feelings/ Releasing this desire into the sky
Feelings, reach/ Wings Spread and take flight/ From here I watch over you

"Mada mada dane."
