Yet he won’t take notice of it, and frankly, Anna was getting a little irritated that Nat won’t compliment her. ~~~~~ “Anna, you have your hair down today?” When Anna got asked that, she turned around, a bit surprised anyone noticed at all. “Yes, I thought it’d be a nice change,” Anna replied to Gilda. Gilda nodded. “I just thought it was unusual,” Gilda told her. “You usually do your hair. Ponytails, braids, buns… What’s with the sudden change?” “No reason,” Anna replied, marching on. She stared up ahead of her. She saw how he walked, how he smiled and laughed. Anna looked down, a shade of pink coming onto her face. It wasn’t that hard to guess. Anna has grown her hair out once more. Back when she cut it all off to escape the house, she secretly mourned the loss of her hair. After years of growing it out, it’s gone back to its original length, if not longer. And now that they were heading towards the Jaw of the Lion, of course one would wonder why she won’t put her hair up with all this heat. Frankly, it was because of the boy in front of her. Nat has never complimented her hair before. Even the people at Goldy Pond noticed when her hair got considerably longer. They would be surprised. People would say that she looks pretty with long hair. But Nat, the boy who was her age, the boy who grew up with her, never said anything before. And honestly, she was surprised that he hasn’t. After all, Nat was a kind boy. A bit odd, but he has a good heart. That’s what made Anna take interest in him in the first place. For a while now, she’s been trying to get him to compliment her hair. She’s been doing her hair all the time. She’s had others help her do her hair. But no matter what, he just won’t seem to notice it. That’s why Anna started letting her hair down. She’s been doing nothing to it for the past few days, ever since they left on their journey. If he won’t notice that her hair is up, would he notice when she doesn’t do anything to it? So far he hasn’t but she wanted to have hope. But after days of it, she started to not expect anything. After all, no matter how much she’s watched him or hinted it to him, he never took notice. That’s why, when Anna woke up one morning, she didn’t expect Nat to be there. He was just there, sitting right next to her. His eyes were watching her, and she could only stare back at him. An awkward silence remained for a minute. Nat was the first one to realize what was happening and got flustered. He jerked away from Anna, a visible blush on his face. “S-Sorry!” Nat whispered to her, “I didn’t mean to wake you!” Anna slowly sat up and looked around. Everyone was still asleep. It looked like Nat was the first to wake up. However, there were more pressing matters to take care of. Because when Nat pulled away from her, Anna felt a tug. And then she realized he was playing with her hair. A blush immediately rose on her face. She felt self-conscious as she tucked her hair behind her ear. “N-Nat, what were you doing?” Anna asked him. “S-Sorry,” Nat said, looking away. His voice was quiet, and he only got softer. “I just thought…” “You just thought…” Anna repeated back to him. “…That your hair was messy…” Nat finished. Anna’s eyes immediately widened. Messy? No one’s ever told her that before. Rather, wasn’t this the opposite of what she wanted to hear from him? Anna started pouting. “Well sorry it’s a mess…” Anna mumbled, looking away from him. Nat gasped. He started shaking his head and waving his hands around. “No, that’s not what I meant!” Nat exclaimed. “I just thought you should… you should put it up!” “Why should I?” Anna asked him. Because it looks prettier when her hair up? Because he likes it when it’s up? “So that it would be less messy,” Nat answered. Somehow, that irked Anna. Definitely not the answer she was expecting, that’s for sure. “Well if it bothers you so much, why don’t you do my hair?” Anna asked him, “I don’t exactly feel like it.” “Oh, can I?” Nat asked. Anna was surprised. The shock slowly registered on her face. “I mean, I’ve always wanted to try it,” Nat said, scratching the back of his head, “If it’s okay with you…” “Y-yeah…” Anna simply answered. She turned around to let Nat play her hair, yet still flinched at the first touch. After all, she didn’t expect this kind of development at all. Anna waited there patiently as she felt Nat play with her hair. He tugged it here and there, trying to make things work. Yet, he was more gently than Anna had anticipated. He was doing his best not to hurt her. When he finished, it took roughly 30 minutes, much longer than Anna had anticipated. After all, it was just braided. When she looked at her hair, she couldn’t help the confusion leaking into her voice. “Braids…?” She mumbled, touching the braids in her hair. They were two small simple braids on each side of her head. She was quite amazed as to how he took so long to make just some braids. “Ah, don’t say it,” Nat cried out. “I know it took me a long time. I just wanted them to look good! Frankly, I would have done the two giant braids that you usually did when we were younger, but I’d probably rip all your hair off in the process.” Anna looked down at her hair, holding one of the braids in her palm and hiding her smile. He said he wanted it to look good, but frankly, it was still a mess. Loose ends were sticking out everywhere. It made her want to laugh, though instead, it was just a huge bubbly feeling in her chest. “So, are you really not going to do your hair anymore?” Nat asked her. Anna turned around and looked at him, smiling. “Who knows?” she teased. After all, if he were to do this when she had her hair down, why would she start putting it back up again? “What a waste,” Nat mumbled. Anna turned around to face him, a puzzled expression on her face. “What do you mean?’ Anna asked him. Nat looked her straight in the eye, causing her to stiffen up. Slowly, she saw his hand reach out and touch one of the braids, gently holding it in the palm of his hand. He handled her hair so gently, it caused her heart to skip a beat. "I just thought that you look the most lovely in braids,” Nat said slowly. He saw Anna staring at him, so Nat smiled at her before getting on his feet and stretching. “Anyways, it’s your choice,” he told her, “I’ll leave you to it. I’m gonna go wake up the others now.” And Nat walked off to do just as he said, leaving Anna sitting there, her heart thumping faster than ever. And later that day, people definitely took notice of Anna’s new hairstyle. As they made their way, Anna felt a poke on her shoulder. She turned around to be met with Gilda. “Anna, you did your hair today!” Gilda said happily, “But don’t you think it looks a little bad? Want me to fix it?” Anna only smiled at Gilda and shook her head. She gently reached up to touch the braid at the side of her head. “No, I’ll keep it this way,” Anna told her, “After all, this might just be my new favorite hairstyle.”

NatAnna oneshot for day 1! Pretty short so I’ll post the full thing here! 
Title: The Ways of Love 
Word Count: 1781 (~8 minute read) 
Summary: “Teach me how to flirt!“ Nat begged his siblings.Nat wants to learn how to flirt from his older siblings. He wants to be closer to Anna. But what could his siblings possibly help him?
~~~~~
"Wait, what did you say?” Ray asked, staring at Nat with a dumbfounded expression on his face. 
“I said you should teach me how to flirt!” Nat demanded, crossing his arms and looking at his siblings. “I want to be closer to Anna!” 
This news certainly caught Ray and Emma by surprise. The pair was just sitting at a table, researching about The Seven Walls through thousands of books in the archives room when Nat suddenly burst through the door with this news. All of a sudden, he came to the pair asking them to teach him about flirting. It certainly caught them off guard. 
“I- I don’t think I’m hearing you right…” Emma said, putting a hand on her face as she felt an unbearable blush rise to her cheeks. “You want us… to teach you… how to flirt… with Anna…” 
“Then you did hear me right!” Nat screamed. He grabbed onto Ray’s shoulders and started shaking the poor boy. “Please, I’m begging you! You two are the smartest here! The others aren’t nearly as smart! Surely you must have read something on flirting! Dating! Anything!” 
Nat then turned to Emma, making her flinch. He did to her what he did to Ray: He grabbed her by the shoulders and started shaking her. Ray leaned against his chair, dizzy from being shaken around. “Don’t you see how cute she is?!” Nat yelled at Emma as her head swung back and forth, “Her kind smile! Her unwavering determination! How could anybody not fall in love with her! She’s an angel in disguise!” 
“I- I see angels…” Emma cried out, almost gagging from being shaken so much. 
“Stop! Stop!” Ray yelled at Nat, wanting him to stop shaking Emma. “We get it! We’ll help you with your… ugh… flirting.” 
Nat turned his face back to Ray, and Ray was disturbed to see a stream of tears flooding Nat’s eyes. “Oh, thank you!” Nat shouted, running up to Ray and hugging him, making Ray groan. “I’ll never forget this! You’re the best siblings I could ever ask for!” 
Eventually, once Nat stopped being so emotional, Nat sat down at the table with Ray and Emma. Together, all three of them pondered on what Nat could do to win Anna’s heart. 
“I really don’t know what you expect of us,” Emma mumbled, “We don’t exactly have any romantic experience…” 
“Well according to the books I’ve read, one thing you could do is appeal yourself to her,” Ray mentioned, “You know, like your personality or your personal traits.” 
Emma turned to Ray, confusion plastered onto her face. “Huh? You read books on how to flirt? What good is that?” Emma asked him. 
Ray realized what he said. He turned his head away from Emma, making sure she didn’t see the blush coming onto his face. “No reason…” Ray mumbled out, confusing Emma even more. 
“So my personality and personal traits, huh…” Nat said, grinning to himself. “I can do that!” 
Without so much as a warning, Nat raced out of the room, leaving behind a dumbfounded Ray and Emma. He raced through the halls and found Anna in her room, sitting on her bed and reading her own book. When he entered the room, she looked up at him, her eyes widening slightly upon his arrival. “Nat? What are you doing here?” she asked him. 
Nat felt his heart beat faster. Still, he marched on, entering her room. Once he was a few feet away, he posed dramatically, sweeping back his hair. “So, Anna!” he started out, “Have you seen my magnificent nose line?!” 
Anna stared at him, confused. But they didn’t move. He stood there in awkward silence. Nat started sweating profusely by the minute. “Yes, your nose line is nice,” Anna responded at last, “But did you… need anything else?” 
“It wasn’t working…!” Nat thought to himself. She didn’t look as flustered as he was. Shouldn’t she be blushing and swooning over him by now?! 
“I- I’ll be right back!” Nat yelled out as he raced out of the room. He proceeded to go straight back to the archives room, where Ray and Emma were once again shocked by his sudden arrival. Nat slammed his hands on the table, glaring at the pair. “You guys, it didn’t work!” Nat complained, “She isn’t swooning over me!” 
Ray and Emma stared at Nat with blank expressions before Ray let out a groan. “This is ridiculous…” Ray muttered in annoyance. 
Emma let out a light, nervous chuckle. “Um, you could try complimenting her?” Emma suggested, earning a stare from both Ray and Nat. “I think most girls like compliments!” 
Ray continued to stare at her, pondering. “Hey, Emma,” Ray called out. 
“Yes?” came her reply. 
“I like how brave you are.” 
Emma tilted her head in bewilderment, staring at Ray with a confused expression. “I don’t think a compliment requires you to be that brave…” Emma told him, then, turning to Nat, she missed the displeasure forming on Ray’s face. “Anyways, Nat, you should give him a compliment!” 
“I see! A compliment!” Nat said, a bright smile on his face as he considered that. “I can do that!” It was an easy thing to do! There were so many things he could compliment her for, after all! 
So once again, Nat zoomed down the halls and into Anna’s room. She was sitting on her bed, right where he left her. “Anna!” Nat called out. 
“Nat?” Anna replied, looking at him once more. 
Nat entered the room, standing a few feet away from the bed. “Anna, I…” 
“Really like your cuteness?” Nat thought in his head. “How she’s studying medicine for her family? Her bright smile? How she does her hair? What about how she loves everyone? How calm and collected she is?” 
Thoughts swirled around in his head. He found himself opening and closing his mouth, unable to form words as Anna stared at him. She stared with those mystical blue eyes of hers. Those eyes only made him even more nervous. 
But he couldn’t do it… 
It… was too embarrassing…! 
“I- I’ll be right back!” Nat bailed out of the room. He just couldn’t do it. There was no way he could say all that mushy stuff to her face! So he ran back to the archives room, and it seemed like Ray and Emma were already anticipating his arrival. They looked up from their books as Nat approached. 
“Another method!” Nat cried out, slamming his hands on the table once more. “I can’t do that one!” 
“Got too scared, huh…” Ray said, “Told you so, Emma. I win.” 
Emma pouted at Ray, pointing a finger at him. “Okay then, Ray, you tell him what to do!” 
Ray gave a sigh. He put his book down and crossed his arms. “Okay, look,” he said, pointing a finger at Nat. “You go and stand in that room for 5 minutes. You can stand in a corner or even hide under her bed. I don’t care. But I just ask for 5 minutes.” 
“I- I guess I could do that…” Nat muttered. “But Ray… what good would that do?” 
“Just trust me on this one,” Ray told the boy, waving him off. “Now be on your way, and remember: 5 minutes.” 
And so Nat once more walked off and out of the archives room. He made his way over to Anna’s room, and it seemed like she was expecting his appearance. “You’re back,” Anna said as he entered the room. 
“Yeah, I am…” Nat said nervously as he closed the door behind him. 
“Are you staying in here this time?” Anna asked. 
Nat nodded. 
“I see…” Anna said with a hum. “Well, I don’t mind. Why don’t you take a seat?” 
She gestured over to her desk. Nat gulped and did an awkward walk across the room, sitting at the desk just by her bed. 
5 minutes… He really thought he could do it, but now he was itching to run out of the room like the coward he was. Has it been 5 minutes yet? It felt like it’s been forever. Nat wasn’t good at making conversation in awkward moments like this. How do you talk to a girl when her attention is focused on a book? Should he crawl under the bed like Ray suggested? 
But suddenly, Anna started to slowly close her book. Her head gradually tilted towards Nat, smiling at him. Nat felt shivers down his spine. She was staring at him with those bright blue eyes again… 
“Hey Nat…” Anna started out, her voice slow and steady. 
“Do you like me?” 
Suddenly, Nat’s heart started doing a marathon. The words that came out of her mouth made Nat fall out of his seat. A blush immediately rose to his face after being found out like that. “Wha-? How-” Nat said as he got up. He couldn’t get a sentence out. He was just dumbfounded by the turn of events. He didn’t expect her to take that approach in the slightest. 
Anna started giggling. Her smile made Nat’s chest leap. “It was obvious. You’ve been staring at me for quite some time. Did you think I wouldn’t notice? I tried giving you a chance to confess too, and when I thought you would, you just run away.” 
Anna got up off the bed. She did a twirl in her skirt that made her look beautiful. Frankly, Nat couldn’t stop staring at her. “So if you aren’t going to do it, then I will,” Anna said, as calm and collected as she always has been. Nat could have sworn the pink on her cheeks was a lie. But seeing her like this… he wasn’t so sure anymore. Was he sure this wasn’t all just a dream? 
Nat watched Anna with wide eyes as Anna stood there, smiling at him. Her mouth started opening and words he couldn’t say come spilling out of her mouth… 
Meanwhile, Emma noticed that Nat didn’t come back. She looked at the door, confused as to why Nat hasn’t returned when he’s been barging in so much. 
“He’s been gone for a while…” Emma muttered. 
“I win the bet, obviously,” Ray said, not looking up as he turned the page. Even without looking up, he could sense the pout on Emma’s face. 
“How’d you know?!” Emma yelled at him, complaining, “What magic did you use?!” 
Ray finally looked up and gave her a smirk. “I didn’t do anything,” Ray replied, resting his chin on his hand as he grinned at her. “I just made a bet that Anna could figure that boy out…” 
“And it seems like I wasn’t wrong…”

Hehehehe
