It is almost time for your life to change, Natsuki.

Natsuki woke up startled. She looked over to her alarm clock, and noticed that she had woke up earlier than she usually does.

"Why was I so startled?" She whispered as she had gotten out of bed. Her eyes gave a tired glance over to her darkened window. Usually when this happened, she would close her eyes and drift off to sleep, but today was a bit special.

Today was the day for her life to change. For her to ask Yuri out, and hope for the best.

Natsuki went over to her closet, and looked for her neatest school uniform. She then, proceeded to put on the uniform, and hoped that her dad wouldn't come home. When she realized that today was one of the days were he didn't come home, she began to organize her school supplies that were scattered in a messy pile. 

After she was done with that, she glanced at her window to see some light coming in through the curtains. Natsuki grabbed her backpack, and went to her windowsill. She set her backpack down into a familiar person's arms. She then pulled herself up from the windowsill, and managed to get out of her bedroom.

"Good morning, Natsuki! My mom has your dress and my dress for tonight. Maybe, I can take you to my house, so you can avoid your dad from seeing you." Yuri suggested, looking at Natsuki with a joyous smile.

"That would be a great idea, Yuri. Thank you for everything. Although, I have a question." Natsuki was kinda worried how this question was going to play out. She really had no one who would go to great lengths to help her.

"What is your question?" Yuri asked, looking a Natsuki with a nervous look.

"Why are you doing all of this for me, Yuri? I'm really curious and confused when it comes to these types of sympathies." Natsuki sighed for a bit, thinking that she might have hurt Yuri's feelings when saying that. 

"I'm doing this because I care a lot about you, Natsuki. It sucks that you have to go through this kind of crap with your father. I mean, they should care for you by helping you when you need it, and not discard you like you are some piece of worthless trash.  I have been doing these things for you to show you that you are loved no matter who your parents are." Yuri smiled, and hugged Natsuki.

Natsuki tried to smile so that she couldn't reveal how much she had blushed during Yuri's warm embrace. 

"Thank you so much." She had said, her heart racing vigorously, and her voice trembled from being really nervous.  

A minute later, the bell had started to ring, signaling that the two love birds needed to go to class. Natsuki smiled as she walked, and looked away from most of the people in her class.

************************************************

School had finally ended, and Yuri smiled as Natsuki was by her side. The two were walking to Yuri's house, so they could get ready for the ball that night.
