꧁ LIFE and DEATH ꧂

LISTEN

This was inspired by @Doughnutboi's 'Gifts For A Ghost'. :) An amazing writer and an amazing story!

"Ne~ ne~ chan!"

Nene looked up. "Yes, Aoi-chan?"

"Who's your crush?"

The question took Nene by surprise.

"M-Minamoto-senpai, w-who else?"

Aoi raised one perfect eyebrow at the girl. "I'm not sure . . . you haven't been talking about him recently."

"Well . . ." Nene blushed and looked away. "There's this . . . n-nevermind!"

"Nene-chan! Who is it?" Aoi giggled. Nene blushed harder.

"W-well . . ."

"Nene-chan! Tell me!"

Nene sighed. She couldn't say no to Aoi.

"I . . . I don't think you know him. H-he's . . . well, he has this dark-chocolate-y-brown hair. He a-always wears this black hat, but his hair i-is really soft."

"And?"

"A-and?" Nene blinked in surprise. But she quickly regained her composure. "H-he has these really pretty amber eyes. Sometimes they look like more of a dark honey. They're so big, and his eyes always seem to glow."

"Aww, Nene-chan, keep going!"

Nene hugged herself, her blush fading. If there was one thing she could do, it was talk about Hanako.

"He wears all black, but not in a goth way. He's always super flirty, and can't seem to not touch me. He likes to hug me a lot.

"When we first met, he was kind of a perv . . . but then he ended up saving me from some Mok-- I mean . . . bullies."

"That's so sweet!" Aoi chorused, smiling.

"One time he took me to a Tanabata festival, a-and he helped me try to get all of the wishing slips--"

"Do you really believe in those?" Aoi asked, cutting Nene off. Nene's blushed slowly returned.

"Well . . . it w-was kind of childish, but it was fun. I really enjoyed it--"

The school bell quickly rang.

"Oh, Nene-chan, school's over! I have to go. See you later?"

"I'll talk to you later, Aoi-chan." Nene smiled.

Aoi bounced off, and Nene turned towards the route that would take her to the bathroom.

But before she could take a step, Nene spotted a white and red orb floating at eye level with her.

Her eyes widened.

"Aww, does my daikon really think all of that?"

Arms wrapped around her from behind.

Nene was suddenly very thankful that all her classmates had left.

The pair of arms quickly spun her around so that she was inches away from the pair of amber eyes she had described only a few minutes ago.

"Hey there, Yashiro."

"H-Hanako-kun!"

Nene tried to laugh it off, smiling, even if she was so red it looked like she was on fire.

"You think my eyes are pretty?" Hanako asked, floating parallel to the ground. He was basically laying in the air. "And that my hair is soft? And that I'm flirty? Well, I probably could have guessed that one." Hanako laughed and leaned away from

"H-Hanako-kun, I-I--"

"What?" Hanako smirked. "You wanna bring up the whole 'calling me a perv' thing--"

Nene leaned forward and gently kissed the ghost.

It surprised Nene when he kissed her back.

"H-Hanako-kun . . ." she breathed after pulling back. "I-I think I l-like you . . ."

"Ha," he smirked. "I think I guessed that. After you told your friend all that, I--"

He was rewarded with a good smack.
