[May 6] [Sket Dance] and I would have met you
Title: and I would have met you (6/31)
Day/Theme: May 6 / my moment is a flower
Series: Sket Dance
Character/Pairing: Haru/Akane
Rating: PG-13
Akane leaves her purse on the kitchen counter as she passes it; her keys, she tosses to the small ceramic bowl Ryosuke got her as a housewarming gift. She is on her way to the bathroom, intent on cooling her head with a particularly freezing shower, when she hears the noise from her room. She stops, and peers inside.
"You're still here?" Akane asks, honestly surprised. Amidst a stack of unused sketchpads, Haru glances upwards.
"Still here," says Haru, and she grins. Or, at least, comes close to it; she shows too little teeth, and there is a shyness, a natural reticence Akane has long since given up on weaning off of her. Years and years of half-eager smiles that still come off as more honest and prized than Ryosuke's own.
"I'm sorry," says Akane. "I had no idea I had so much stuff..."
"That only means Akane-chan isn't boring," says Haru, lightly.
Akane's brow wrinkles. "You really didn't have to do this. I mean, I know you're busy with your new home and stuff--"
"Akane," says Haru. She stands up and places her palm over Akane's clenched fingers. "It's okay. I was glad to have something to do."
Akane looks at her, askance. "But still..."
"You're never a bother," says Haru, with a firmness that still shocks Akane. She will never get used to it: Haru, pretty as a bud in spring, but fervent with her passions at equal turns.
Something in Akane tightens. It blossoms, and it stutters to a stop. She thinks it is love, but it is so strange.
"You're a good friend," says Akane, tightly. Haru's hand presses closer to her knuckles; it rubs against the back of her hand. A moment. Just a moment. That's all she needs.
"Yes," Haru echoes. "Always."
