When The Cherry Blossoms Fall [ YAOI ]

Their Meeting

The Cherry Blossom Child

He walked around the forest gazing at all the cherry blossoms which swayed without wind as if they were waving to him, he smiled in utter peace and happiness because the humans hadn't visited again, last time his family suffered and he did not like it as they had come for the Crystale however the price with the Crystale was dire because it changed the law of life and the punishment would lay upon him for not protecting the Crystale if it was used, the sun had fallen and the moon had risen as he stood there two small boys ran over to him making his eyes widen "excuse me sir.. but where are we?" one of the boys questioned, he had green eyes and dark red hair while the other one had brown eyes and black hair "We are in the Sakura Forest, I am the Guardian Leonard and what is your business here?" He asked the two boys who looked at him in utter shock "We.. we were ambushed by a group so soldiers and got told to run.. my names Aidan and my friend here is Solace" the boy with dark red hair who was now known to be Aidan questioned and he stared at them "well for now just sleep" Leonard spoke in a calm tone as he sat against a tree and the boys obeyed for they knew not of what Leonard was capable of and the thought that he could possibly hurt them terrified the small boys as they were only around age 9 "I promise that when morning comes you will back your palace." Leonard said before closing his eyes.

The very next morning the boys woke up and looked around the room for Leonard only to find they were back at Aidan's castle "The Young Lord is awake, we found you two in the carriage.. what happened? all the soldiers were killed? how did you survive?" a maid questioned "Pure strength" Aidan said cockily as Solace looked at Aidan "A boy.. Leonard.. saved us" he said and Aidan did not seem to like this as he glared at Solace that day he returned to his own kingdom and alerted his father whom was angry at Aidan and his father for letting such an accident happen but Solace asked him not to do anything so that he didn't cause any drama and make a needless war though Solace returned to the forest with a sword in hand and trained everyday waiting for a specific boy named Leonard, for 3 years he waited.

And sure enough he appeared, while Solace was training he sensed a presence "You're back?" he heard and he turned around "I-" "I carried you two back to your carriage while you slept" Leonard interrupted him before he could ask and he approached Leonard "Why? you had no idea who we were.. we could've been thieves" Solace questioned before he saw Leonard shake his head "I would have sensed that.." Leonard spoke with a tone that held honesty and reassurance "Would you like to come live at the castle..?" Solace questioned and Leonard chuckled "I'm the guardian.. I can't leave" Leonard said with amusement upon his face and Solace smiled "Then I'll be back tomorrow!" he said running away "No!- ugh.. silly child" Leonard gave up as he saw Solace's figure fade into the distance.

That night Leonard walked around the forest when he found himself back at the spot that he and Solace last interacted he light reflecting upon something and he approached it and saw the sword , he picked it up with his delicate hands "Solace.." he mumbled as he held the sword close to him, although the metal was cold he felt a faint warmth.
