It was 10:30 pm on a cold Thursday evening in Toronto. Kathy and her older friend Jackie could be found in a very busy airport, waiting for their flight. They were excited to say the least. It was their first time traveling alone. Jackie was of age, but her best friend was only sixteen, so Jackie was the one to lead this group. In reality Jackie herself has never been outside of Canada, while Kathy has; thus, she was the real boss.  Jackie didn't mind, Kathy and she were very close, best friends that shared same interests and obsessions; It was no surprise to their parents when they announced that they will be traveling to Japan for the holidays, a bit longer than the holidays, but who cares, they wanted to witness the Japan Nationals as well as travel Japan. Two of them, along with their missing third friend Beth were obsessed with figure skating, anime, and everything else Japan related; Beth even started to study Japanese. Unfortunately, she wasn't able to join them on their adventure due to her school work; never the less, if she could of, she would of been there with them. For now, it was only Jackie and Kathy that were wiggling and giggling in excitement at the Toronto airport waiting to head to Japan.

 -Do you think he'll compete?- Asked Kathy her friend in the white Napapijri jacket.

-I don't know... I hope so....But he injured himself pretty bad, there was no statement afterwords, but he was on crutches and everything.....- Answered Jackie with concern written on her face.

-Poor Yuzu.....- Kathy said with sorrow in her voice.

-But we'll see Shoma!- Exclaimed Jackie, lightening the situation.

-Yes!!!- Said Kathy happily, looking at the bright side.-Still, I hope we'll see the king himself in action.- She expressed positively.

-I hope so too. But let's not forget all the fun we're going to have in Tokyo before that!- Squealed Jackie.

-I'm so excited!!! I can't wait!!!- Kathy was jumping just at the thought of all the fun they're going to have, once they land in the holy land of Japan.

After that they calmed down a bit, Jackie was on her phone, and Kathy was looking around the airport, observing all the travelers heading to Japan. 

"So many Asians" She thought "Non of them are particularly cute" She sadly realized.

"Why couldn't there be a Yuzuru Hanyu just for me?" just as she cooked that thought up, she noticed a very familiar figure. Very familiar indeed, almost like she knew him, but what Asian guy could she have known that well, that she would be able to recognize him just from behind. Kathy was very intrigued, she wished he would turn around, she was sure she knew that hair from somewhere.

Soon her wish was granted and the mysterious figure reviled it's identity. As soon as Kathy was able to catch a glimpse of his face, her heart found itself in her mouth. She couldn't believe her own eyes.

-Oh! My! God!- Kathy breathed out, grabbing Jackie's arm and clawing her immediately.

-Oww!- Cried Jackie turning her attention from the phone to her companion,-What is wrong with you?!?!- She tried to shake Kathy's hand away, but this one wasn't budging. Kathy was completely frozen, her gaze fixed on something, her eyes wide and almost watery.

-I don't think we need to go to Japan anymore...- Kathy whispered, still staring at something.

-What are you talking about? What did you see?- Jackie was now following Kathy's gaze in order to see what was causing such a reaction. 

-Can't you see?!- Kathy asked absently.

-What?- Jackie was searching the crowd.

-11 o'clock. Look for the most beautiful creature there is!- Kathy whispered with magic in her voice.
