Before long, the two were laughing as they tumbled, splitting apart. What was once a tense escape was now childish fun, Easy, carefree, childish fun.

When they came to a stop at the bottom of the hill, however, only one teen's laughing was heard for a few moments more. When Kaoru noticed the silence, he sat up and glanced around for the girl.

"Sakura? Sakura, you alright?" he called out not too loudly.

After another string of silence, a soft moan of pain came from under a cherry tree.

"Sakura! Geeze, are you alright?" He crawled next to her, shaking her slightly. He wasn't so sure why he was so worried, but he thought it was because of his hostly ways… Or maybe…

Maybe she could be a new friend.

"I-I'm fine, Kaoru," she sighed softly, gripping the back of her head as she sat up. A light hiss left her lips as she did so.

The twin moved behind Sakura, resting a hand on her shoulder. "Let me see." He gently moved her hand away, feeling a thick, warm liquid on it. Once he moved the hand, a bloody wound could be seen. "Sakura! Y-You're bleeding!"

The bronze-haired girl looked at her hand. "So I am." She sighed as she began to sway a little.

"We better get you to the nurse. You're losing a lot of blood." He caught her arms and helped her up, wrapping her arm around his shoulders.

The girl stuttered as they slowly made their way back to the main building. "I-I-I'll be f-fine. Just a-a little blood." Opposing her statement, a sigh blew past her lips as she began to fall forward.

Kaoru brought her into a hug to stop her from falling, blushing ever so slightly. "You're not fine. I'm taking you to the nurse."

She nodded, moving slowly with the Hitachiin. She couldn't argue now.

By the time the two got to the nurse's office, Sakura could barely sit up, let alone stand from being so lightheaded. The nurse gave her pain killers as she began to clean the wound. It didn't take long, since it wasn't so big, but it took a good few minutes.

"Try not to make any sudden movements with your head for a while, okay?" she explained as she finished wrapping the bandages around her head.

Once she was finished, the patient nodded carefully and left.

As she passed the doorway, she noticed the Hitachiin twins outside the door. "Are you okay?" they questioned in unison, leaning forward with their hands behind their backs.

"Yes, thank you." She turned to Kaoru and nodded politely. "And thank you, Kaoru, for helping me earlier." A slight blush snuck onto her cheeks as she spoke towards him.

He smiled back at her, nodding. "You better hurry. The rose display is going to open soon."

"Thank you," she giggled before running off to the display.

Hikaru chuckled a little as he crossed his arms, looking to his younger brother. "So… She's the one girl who refused?"

"Yeah." He couldn't but watch her run off. Something about her.

It was special. Not like brother special or fellow host special, though…

Could this be friend special?
