Flowers For Shiine...

" Catch, Shiine!" Chacha called out as she tossed a bright red ball towards him.

" Alright, Chacha!" Just as he was about to catch it, white blur leaped up in front of him and knocked the ball away.
" Hey!" Shiine glared at the little white wolf, now balancing on the ball and rolling it away. " That wasn't fair!"

In a puff of smoke, the wolf transformed into the familiar shape of Riiya. "That's because you're so slow, Shiine" he said smugly and stuck his tongue out at him.

"Hmph! I'm not slow!" Shiine retaliated, "You silly do.."

"Riiya! Shiine!" Chacha called. "Let's play!"

Their bickering was momentarily forgotten as they ran to play with Chacha, unaware that someone was watching them in a tree at the far end of the field.

Tsutzu sighed and smiled as she watched Shiine play happily with his friends. She wished that she could join in the game and be able to toss the ball back and forth with Shiine. Her face turned bright red at that thought and she sighed again.
She sat amongst her camoflouge of leaves, reassured that they would not be able to spot her. After all, she was a ninja and it would be pretty embarassing if they caught her spying on them. "Oh, Shiine, if you only knew how I felt.."
An image of them dancing momentarily filled Tsutzu's thoughts. Another picture of them running, holding hands through the forrest, also crossed her mind.

She looked down at the flowers on her lap that she had picked earlier this afternoon for Shiine. She picked up a white daisy, and plucked out a petal.

"He loves me...he loves me not.."
A little pile of white petals grew beside her. Tsutzu hesitated at the last petal before she pulled it out. " He loves me.."

Gathering the small pile, she cupped her hands to her face and blew gently, watching the white petals as the flew with the soft breeze to where Shiine was.

Shiine felt the cool wind ruffle his hair and he felt something brush against his cheek. He quickly brushed his hand across his face and caught something soft in his hand. It was a white petal torn off a daisy.

He stared at in and looked in the direction from which it came from. There was only a small group of trees on the other side of the field. Shiine thought he saw something move in the branches of the tallest one, but even with his sharp eyesight, he couldn't make out what it was.

Tsutzu froze when she saw that Shiine was looking in her direction. She went pale and hoped prayed that he wouldn't see her.

After a few seconds, Shiine smiled and shook his head. " Shiine, you are being so paranoid," he scolded himself and went back to playing with Chacha.

Tsutzu nearly fainted wth joy upon seeing that smile. She gathered the small bouquet she picked for Shiine and left it at the foot of the tree, before stealing off quietly.
If she had looked back a second later, she would have seen Shiine, flying on his magic broom, picking up the bouquet and sniff it, with a growing smile on his face.
