Beautiful Blossoms

8th grade

Osamu was walking through the summer camp grounds and couldn't help the sigh that escaped his lips. He kicked a rock on the ground and looked up when he saw two feet facing away from him.

What he saw made his eyes go wide and his heart skipped a beat. There was a pretty brunet boy, with such bright hazel eyes and cute square shaped glasses. He was looking at the roses in the garden when a butterfly landed on his nose.

Osamu thought he was the most beautiful boy he's ever seen. He walked closer until he felt as if he could just reach out and touch him.

The brunet looked up and Osamu swore that every cell in his body went haywire. The brunet smiled shyly and waved hello. When Osamu didn't wave back or do anything else but stare the brunet giggled and walked closer.

"Hello" He bowed slightly and his eyes sparkled as he looked at Osamu. Osamu snapped out of his thoughts and his cheeks tinted a light pink as he looked into the brunets eyes. "H-hey..." He cursed himself in his head as he stuttered. "What's your name?" The boy asked with a genuine smile and Osamu just realized the rose in his hair that made him look so much more like a prince. "Osamu, Osamu Miya" He said, remembering how to talk again, "And you are?" He held out his hand. The brunet took it gently and looked up at Osamu with a smile before answering, "Oikawa Tooru."

"Nice to meet you, Osamu~" He said cheerfully with a blush. Osamu smiled brightly at him and felt excited. "So uh...what are you doing here?" He asked quietly while still holding Oikawa's hand. "Oh well..I thought it would be fun to come to summer camp and then I heard my parents talking about how they wanted to get rid of me for a while...so" Oikawa let go of Osamu's hand and turned away. Osamu's heart clenched at the sadness in Oikawa's voice. A tear rolled down his cheek and he wiped it quickly.

"I'm sorry-"

"No no it's fine!" Oikawa interrupted suddenly with a grin. He grabbed Osamu's arm and started pulling him around the camp grounds. "We'll have so much fun here together!" Oikawa's smile widened, two dimples appearing on his cheeks.

Osamu found himself smiling at that cute grin. It was infectious. Osamu gulped. The way his heart seemed to skip beats whenever Oikawa looked at him made him want to stare at the smaller male forever.

Oikawa kept grinning as he led them past the cabins and tents. Finally, he stopped in front of a big pavilion with a large oak tree in the center of it. "Come here," he motioned to the bench next to the tree. Osamu sat next to him and Oikawa leaned on the wooden table. The silver haired looked at Oikawa with curious eyes. The brunet grinned wider.

"It looks really cool doesn't it?" Osamu nodded and Oikawa continued, "But there's something I want to show you instead." Osamu raised an eyebrow at this, but Oikawa just continued. "Close your eyes!" He insisted with an adorable giggle. Osamu did as he was told and closed his eyes. He heard shuffling and then he felt something press against his hair.

"There" Oikawa spoke softly and Osamu felt himself lean even more against Oikawa. "You can open your eyes now." Osamu opened his eyes and saw a small pink flower resting against the top of his head, He couldn't help smiling.

"It's called a hibiscus" Oikawa said proudly. "It symbolizes a feeling of affection and happiness from both sides of a relationship, and also represents innocence. My grandmother gave it to me because she said it means trust." Oikawa said as he brushed his hand against the flower.

"This is beautiful" Osamu breathed out. The brunet chuckled and laid his head on Osamu's shoulder. Osamu's heart rate sped up and his face began to heat up, he was glad Oikawa didn't seem to notice. "Is it okay if we sit here for awhile? I want to enjoy the sunset..." Osamu nodded and Oikawa smiled brighter than the sun itself. Osamu's heart swelled at the sight. He wondered what it'd be like to see that every day.
