Leo's Point of view

The morning and school day was the same as the day before but this day was different. He would not walk home with Yuiko today. He looked out the window and saw Yuiko leave with a guy.

"Who is that Yuiko is walking beside?" he asked his seatmate.

"Ohh, that's Ichigo. Nice fellow. I think he likes Yuiko but I am not sure. They used to be reeeeal close, but"

He didn't hear the rest. He jumped out the window for the second floor and ran after them. The saw the two heading for the train station and just as he got to the platform the train left.

Yuiko's point of view.

They walked in and was greeted by Ichigo's mother. "Hello oba sama" she said and bowed.

"Ohh my, Yuiko long time no see my dear. How wonderful to see you again. Are you two finally dating my dear?" she said and Yuiko blushed as well as Ichigo

"Mom, SHUT UP, she is engaged!" he yelled at her and oba samas eyes got as big as plate. She did not know how to respond to that statement and she asked Ichigo "so where is your new dog? I am dying to see him"

They left for the backyard and was greeted by a big puppy. But as soon as Yuiko tried to pet it she went crazy with affection for the puppy and it ran away from her. They settled down in the grass under a three and looked at the sky.

Ichigo broke the silence. "You don't have to think anything about what my mother said. I don't have those kind of feelings towards you. Actually I have something really important to tell you and you are the only one who will know it besides one other person."

She looked at him and saw how important this statement was to him and she smiled and said "O.K. I'm listening" she laid back in the grass and looked at his face. He blushed and whispered "I got a….. I got… I got myself a boyfriend." He looked at her but she had frozen. She was thinking about his words. He did say boyfriend right? Ohhhhhhhhh.

"THAT'S GREAT! CONGRATULATIONS! IM SO HAPPY FOR YOU" she yelled. Now it was his turn to freeze up. He was tense but eased up when he saw her smiling face. He blushed deeply. "Maybe we could go on a double date?" he asked and smiled at her. "I would love that, I don't think Leo has ever been to the amusement park. How about this Saturday? The weather should be great" she said and he nodded. Then she bid farewell and Ichigo went to the kitchen, to tell his mother and father about his boyfriend.

Leo stood waiting for her at the front door to his house and she ran up to him and gave him a big hug. He was overwhelmed and confused for a minute. But got his head together.

"You didn't tell me your friend was a guy, and a guy who likes you. Did he do anything to you? De he harm you? Are you O.K?" he asked and ran out of breath because if his worry. She smiled up at him and asked "where you jealous, love?" while bending over to look under his bangs. He blushed and looked to his side and sulked only to steal a glance at her. She smiled wider and giggled at his reaction. "Don't be Leo, he didn't do anything. His mother was home and I met his new puppy" she stopped smiling and sulked "it didn't like me" and he smiled at her and took her in to his arms. I can call the birds for us this
Saturday. That would make you happy right?" he asked her. She laughed and nodded. "But we can't this Saturday. We have a date with Ichigo." She said and Leo understood nothing. She blushed as she remembers his confession to her and he started sulking again. "You sure that nothing happened?" he asked her. "Well…" she said and looked at the ground. "So something DID happen" he yelled and she whispered "he confessed, something to me" and she blushed again. "But you will see this Saturday. I promised not to say anything. He would tell you himself" she said while looking up at him. He looked down at her and his expression softened. "O.K. I trust you" he said and they went inside.
