Her breath came out in short pants as she jogged through the forest, easily jumping over logs and other obstactles. She was in her domain, her area of true power. Agri wasn't with her for a change, simply because he had come down with a chest cold. She had gone to pick up some medicine, but decided to take the forest way back. It'd get her better in shape, and besides...she'd always liked the forest air.
"Nani?" she gasped when a figure stepped out of the dark, full bushes...right in her way, "OW!" Her and the figure both went to the ground, their heads knocking together forcfully.
"Sorry..." the figure mumbled his aplogie, rising and brushing himself off before offering his hand to hers.
"Hyde..." she sighed, rolling her eyes but accepting his hand, "what're you doing here?"
"Agri raising all kinds of cane about how you're not back yet," he replied, not looking at her. She wondered why as she face palmed.
"Onnichan..." she mumbled before taking off at faster speed...definatley faster than Hyde could sprint.
"Wait up!" he demanded, struggling to keep up with her. But she didn't like seeing Agri mad...besides, her headache was killer thanks to him.
Hyde sighed and kept going as fast as his legs would take him. Why wasn't she waiting up for him like Eri would?
"Thank you," the redhead gulped down his serving of the medicine before being flunge right back into a hard coughing fit. She patted his back soothingly, sitting beside him to give him a one armed hug.
"My poor onnichan..." she stuck out her lower lip in a pout, and he ran his fingers down her lower back.
"I don't your pity..." she giggled at the light tickling, as he'd expected her to, "go on, I'm tired. You kept me up waiting." Now slightly cheered up, she pecked his cheek and headed to the table where Eri was sitting.
Gosei Pink was surronded in a pile of construction paper, markers, glue, glitter, crayons, and ribbons, and her friend raised an eyebrow. Sliding beside her, she peered at the card. It was very girly and sparkly, and a figure that was probably Agri was at the base of it. In the glitter and glue, it read at the top Get well soon!
"Making a card for onnichan, eh?" Gosei Yellow smiled wider, knowing he'd hate all the girly stuff, "I guess I will too."
Hyde was watching from the doorway silently, knowing her intentions of making a card. Why was she trying to make her own big brother angry when he'd cheered her up despite being sick as a dog?
"It's not exactly nice to read people's minds," Alata looked up in alarm at Moune's voice in his ear. He smiled a little, shaking his head with a light pink blush tinting his cheeks.
"Demo...yeah, I know," he lowered his gaze, "I guess it's habit."
"Well, y' know," she shrugged to let him know she was just teasing, sitting beside him on the roof, letting her legs dangle off the edge, "why do you spend so much time up here alone?"
"Hm...I guess just to think," he rested his elbow on his knee, gazing at the skyline, "why do you spend so much time in the forest?"
"That's my domain..." she thought about it a moment, "and...well, to think, like you said."
Both sat side-by-side, thinking in sync as they watched the sun change postions in the sky until he slowly spoke, tentivley, "Y' know...it's actually not bad to have some company with me. You're...actually pretty good at...uh...thinking."
Laughing a little, she punched her leader in the arm lightly, "What was your first hint?"
Hyde paused from coming up to tell them supper was ready. How could she have been meditating with Alata when she normally couldn't sit still?
