“  excuse me!  i think you dropped this!  “  she sounded a little out of breath,  happy to finally have caught up to the girl.  vivi held a wallet in her hand,  a small smile on her face.  “ phew,  i thought you’d just keep walking forever…  is this yours? “  // @pureheartz·

      “  huh  .  .  .  ?  ”      the  sound  of  another  calling  out  stops  tohru  dead  in  her  tracks  .  head  turns  to  find  the  source  of  the  noise  ,  umber  locks  swaying  from  motion  as  she  spots  another  girl  jogging  towards  her  .  in  the  stranger’s  hands  is  a  rose  colored  wallet  with  cat  whiskers  decorating  the  front  ,  and  her  eyes  widen  as  she  begins  to  feel  around  the  pocket  of  her  pants.    “  oh,  yes  !    thank  you  so  much  !  ”    the  day  surely  would’ve  soured  if  the  realization  it  was  gone  occurred  long  after  she  got  home  .

          STUDYING IS PROMPTLY shoved to the backburner in favor of this new distraction, the girls’ cheerful demeanor lifting his own mood and he’s turning to engage a bit more actively, hands busying themselves with tugging his jacket further around himself for warmth.  “ Well, I suppose I do. There’s just not much to do in colder months, and everything seems to move so slowly. “ A shrug as he places his book to the side. “ I guess this time of year is just boring for me. No outdoor sports, school is slow, no one wants to do anything… I’d say my favorite season is probably spring. “

          With newfound curiosity he’s observing her, head tilting in agreement.  “ I like your sentiment though. As much as I don’t like the weather, colder months can’t be beat when it comes to natural beauty. The leaves changing are always my favorite. Plus, snowmen when the snow falls. My little sister LOVES making snowmen. “

      catching  tohru  in  a  bad  mood  is    certainly    a  rarity  ,  but  her  demeanor  perks  up  ever  so  slightly  when  the  boy  on  the  bench  offers  a  meaningful  response  .  it's  not  often  that  you  make  a  worthwhile  ,  instant  connection  with  a  total  stranger  ,  so  the  opportunity  to  reply  with  authenticity  of  her  own  is  promptly  taken  .    "  spring  is  wonderful  !    i  just  wish  the  cherry  blossoms  weren't  so  fleeting  ,  but  they  probably  wouldn't  be  as  special  to  me  if  i  saw  them  year  round  .  "  tohru  tends  to  find  the  beauty  in  everything  though  ,  and  knowing  her  ,  the  cherry  blossoms  would  most  likely  still  be  appreciated  no  matter  how  common  they  were  .    "  i've  never  been  that  good  at  outdoor  activities  ,    so  it's  always  interesting  to  hear  from  people  who  are.  what  sports  do  you  play  ?  "  curiosity  seeps  through  every  word  ,  because  despite  only  knowing  him  for  a  minute  or  so  ,  she's  already  well  invested  in  the  conversation.

          THE SMELL OF COFFEE LINGERS thick in the air where Yori sits with his eyes locked on the pages of a textbook ( he’s not even reading it, just staring ) and his long body curled deep within his jacket to protect himself from the chilly breeze he’s been cursing all morning. Surely it’ll warm up soon. Right? It hasn’t even started snowing yet, so there’s no reason for it to be cold. His logic is flawless…. no it’s not. Grumbling to himself, he presses his face further into the pages, only looking up when he senses a presence near him.

           “ I can’t wait for it to be summer again. Autumn sucks… “

      slim  digits  wrapped  around  a  warm  cup  of  hot  chocolate,  tohru  takes  the  liberty  of  occupying  the  empty  space  of  a  park  bench.  the  other,  seemingly  engrossed  in  a  book,  is  silent  until  he  takes  note  of  her  presence.  once  the  words  were  uttered  though,  full  attention  is  promptly  given,  a  polite  smile  spreading  across  pale  pink  lips.
