SailorStar9: Anyway, Chapter 15 goes up. This is Chapter 16. To all my non-reviewing readers, I love you all! Will love you more if you review! *hugs all round!*
Disclaimers: I own nothing, except for the plot bunny and the pairing.
Chapter 16: Start!
"So, it's the Winter Cup preliminaries tomorrow." Ami noted, the couple were now cuddling on a hillslope, Izuki having taken her out to a clear spot to see the meteor shower.
"Yeah." Izuki nodded, looking down at the girl lying on his chest as his fingers twirled a stray strand of her hair.
"Shun, stop distracting me." Ami whined. "The meteor shower is starting."
"You're no fun." Izuki pouted, turning his head back to the night sky.
"Shun..." Ami shot a look at her partner.
"I was just teasing." Izuki grinned, feeding Ami a piece of chocolate to silence off any protestations. "It's starting." He pulled her closer and the couple watched the shooting stars flash across the night sky. "You're being a little forward tonight." He smirked, Ami pulling him back after the meteor shower ended.
"Shut up." Ami blushed, pulling out an object from her tote bag. "Here. I couldn't watch all of your matches, so… I'm putting all of my prayers into this."
Izuki blinked when he saw the origami crane. "Sprite…" he leaned in and kissed her. "Thanks."
During the Josei match and before stepping onto the court, Izuki gave the origami crane which he had converted into a key chain which was now dangling on his sports bag one last look and entered the court.
SailorStar9: Now that's done, read and review.
