--- 

I looked at the house. "I guess this is the place..." I said under my breath as I opened the door. I've been friends with Claire since the 6th grade, and I've never really seen how her house looked like. I only knew that she looked really and acted nice to everyone she met. She was practically the Tamaki Suoh of my school....Minus the rich part anyway. 

The house was really pretty and vintage-causal like theme to it. Not really what I expected, I expected a bit more of a fancy thing, considering how her parents were, but I like it a lot. 

"Hello? Claire, are you here?" I shouted out in the house. No response. Maybe nobody was home?

"Hey, Claire...! Where are you?!" I shouted even louder. Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming from one of the halls. "Sorry! Sorry, I'm here Saph." Claire said walking towards me in her casual outfit.  

"Saph?" I said confused. "You have a pet name for me, huh?" I said with a soft laugh at the name she gave me. She giggled cutely and smiled.

"Wanna see my room?" Claire said happily. I gave a small smile and nodded. She took my hand and ran up the stairs, almost as fast as Sonic the Hedgehog. She opened the room to a that was full of life and color. 

"It's...Beautiful in here...It's almost like a inside garden of some sort." I said twirling around in the room and sat on the bed. I swung my legs around a Claire sat by me. She hugged her legs, looking around as well. 

"My mom decorated this room just to my liking." She said looking around and then pointed at the balcony at the top of her room and looked at me. 

"What is it?" I asked curiously. 

"Can you keep a secret?" She said looking at me dead in the eye. She seemed very serious about it. Although, secrets are usually pretty serious now a days. 

"Uhh... Sure...but was is I--" before I could finish, she took my hand and dragged me to her closet. 

"Wait, we're not going to do what I think we're going to do in here, are we?!" I asked turning red, but I continued. "Firstly, I have no idea if I'm even ready for this, I haven't even gotten rabies shots or anything...!!" I said stammering on a few words, turning even redder.

It's not that I like her or anything, shut up.

Claire gave me a blank look and pulled her clothes back, showing a mini flight of stairs to the top of the room. "Are you finished?" She said looking at me blankly. 

"Oh, if I wanted to kiss you, I would do it now." 

"W-Wha..." I said going speechless and turning even redder. 

Claire giggled. "Sapphire you're so silly." She said going up the stairs. "Come on!"  

I shrugged and started following her up the stairs. It was actually pretty cramped up there, only enough room for the two of us, but it was really nice up there, loads of books and stuffed animals.  

"Heh, it's pretty nice up here. This is where you keep your books and such, right?" I asked. She nodded at me, sitting criss-cross on the floor in front of me. 

"Hey remember what I said to you down the stairs?" 

"....You said it about 1 minute ago, I'm pretty sure I would remember..." I said with a blank expression. "But, what was the secret?" I asked. I was pretty curious about what she wanted to tell me. 

"Nah... I don't think I should say anything." 

"Come on, please? Hesitating to tell just makes me want to know more....!" I whined. 

"Fine. Come close." She said trying to lure me close. I leaned in close.  

Claire giggled. "Closer, silly!" She said smiling. I came a bit more closer, pretty much unaware of what was going to happen. She snuck a quick kiss from me then pulled away. 

"What was that....?" I said with blush appearing on my face. 

"What, you said you wanted a kiss, so why not now, Sapphie?" Claire said with a smile. "Can we do it again, though? Your lips are so soft..." She said blushing as well. 

I kind of hesitated a bit from her. "A-Are you sure...?" I said looking at her. 

"Sure it is. I mean, we're alone, right?" Claire said blinking. "If you don't want to, it's fine." 

I leaned in and softly kissed her. Claire turned a bright pink and pulled me closer, causing us to fall back on the floor. 

Pink really suits her, at least I think it does. 

Claire softly pulled away from my lips, pushing my hair out of my face. "Sheesh, your hair is always in your face, isn't it?" She chuckled and kissed my cheek. 

"Very funny, Claire." I said with a smile, laying on top of her. 

She looked up at me and smiled at me.

"You really are amazing."
