Hello again! This is the second one-shot I'm doing. I was so happy with the results for the first one! I got a couple reviews, and they were enough to motivate me to write on and update as soon as possible.

They're still in kindergarten in this one. Maybe I'll do a different grade next time...

Anyways, let's get started!

Beautiful Hair

Kindergarten

May (5), Drew (5), Gary (5), Paul (5)

May loved the colour purple. It wasn't her favourite colour (red was), but she still loved it. Her mother's eyes were blue, but they had a slight purple tinge to them, which was why she wore amethyst jewelry. May thought her Mommy's jewelry was the most beautiful she had ever seen.

This was also why May liked her friend Paul's hair. She thought his violet hair was the prettiest in the world from the moment she saw it. It made her want to have special hair too.

She was delighted on the day her mother sewed her a red bandana. Caroline had been doing some sewing, and had a small piece of red cloth left. It was too small to make clothes, but perfect for some head-wear for her little daughter.

May wore her new bandana on her head the next day to kindergarten. She held her head up high, hoping everyone would notice.

"My, what a beautiful bandana you are wearing!" Ms. Kelly, her teacher, complimented her.

"Thank you." said May proudly, not forgetting her manners.

She sat at the table she usually sat at, with her friends Gary, Drew, and Paul.

"That's a nice hat." Drew noted.

"It's a band-na. Mommy made it for me!" May explained. She look over at Paul. "See, Paul? Now I have pretty hair, too!"

"You don't have pretty hair. It's just a hat!" Gary pointed out, causing May to pout.

"It's a band-na! And it's like hair!" May was not going to let Gary ruin her mood today. She turned back to Paul, hoping to get a reaction.

Paul noticed her gaze. "What?"

"Do you like my new hair?"

"...I don't see anything different." Honestly speaking, Paul thought it was a very nice bandana, but he didn't like giving compliments.

When May looked downhearted, Drew spoke up. "I think your new hair is gorgeous!" He used the big word his nannies used to describe his hair. He wasn't sure what it exactly meant, but it always sounded like a good thing.

May looked a little better.

When recess time came, everybody went to the playground outside. Gary immediately went to the top of the biggest slide and began yelling that he was the king of the playground. Paul sat alone on the bench as usual. He never wanted to play. May went up to him.

"Do you notice anything different?" she asked hopefully. This time, she had made sure her bandana was visible by checking the mirror in the washroom.

"Nope." Leading to a crushed May.

Drew watched the scene. He didn't get it! There was nothing special about Paul's hair; his green hair was just as nice. He boldly walked over to his two friends.

"Hi, May!" He flipped his hair to get her to notice it.

"Hi Drew." She acknowledged his presence, but not his hair. She turned back to her other friend. "Paul, are you sure?"

Drew flipped his hair another time, but once again, failed to get May's attention.

Suddenly, he felt frustrated. Without thinking, he snatched her bandana off her head and took off. May was startled. It took her a second before she realized what happened, and she started to chase after him.

"Drew, give it back!" But Drew didn't listen. He ran as fast as he could until he was out of breath. He stopped beside a rosebush that was a short distance away from the playground.

"Drew!" May had caught up, huffing and puffing, and with a very angry look on her face. "Give it back!" She tried to take back her possession.

Drew, being too tired to run anymore, held it out of her reach. In an attempt to grab it, May stumbled and fell on the ground.

"Owww..." she whimpered as a tiny speck of red appeared on her knee. Drew immediately felt ashamed, and handed back her bandana. But it was too late.

Drew panicked when he saw tears welling up in May's eyes. He hadn't meant for her to get hurt, and he was really sorry. Now she was going to cry, and he would get in trouble. Would Ms. Kelly put him in the time out corner?

Something caught his eye. The bush beside him was covered in bright, red roses! He knew what to do.

He plucked the most beautiful rose he could see. It was covered in thorns, which scratched his hands, and he knew that they would probably hurt May too. He got to work removing the thorns from the stem the best he could before handing the flower to May.

May squealed as she took it, the small cut on her knee forgotten. Drew felt a sense of accomplishment. Even though his hands hurt now, he had managed to prevent May from crying. It was the most heroic thing he ever did.

"May? Drew? What are you two doing all the way here?" Ms. Kelly had noticed their absence and had come searching for them. When she saw the state they were in, she gasped. "Oh dear! May, what happened to your knee? And Drew, your hands!"

May giggled. "Drew gave me a flower!"

"That was sweet of you, Drew, but next time, try getting a flower without thorns!" She quickly took both of her students indoors to clean up their "injuries".

The four friends sat at their table, waiting for their parents to come pick them up. May's bandana had been re-placed on her head with the help of Ms. Kelly. She now also had a band-aid on her knee, while Drew had multiple on his hands.

May twirled the red rose that Drew had given her. She had made sure to take good care of the pretty little gift.

"Drew?" Drew looked up at her. "Can you put this flower in my band-na?" Drew happily complied, tucking the stem into the side of the red cloth. May smiled widely when he was done.

She had, no doubt, the most beautiful hair in the world.

Second one complete!

So like I said before, I might do a different grade next time. Oh, and if you have any ideas on future one-shots, feel free to share them.

Bye bye for now! Have a smiling day! :)
