The thin trail of smoke emitted by a lighted cigarette was concealed beneath a huge cherry blossom tree. Its vapor couldn't be detected from a few meters away and one would need to go near the tree itself to smell it. The smoker was having a peaceful time, contemplating, thinking of his next agenda, wondering what to eat for lunch. The cigarette was his breakfast.
Jun Seido lay down on the grass underneath the cherry blossom tree, his hand going towards his mouth once in a while to inhale the nicotine ang relieve his stress. His story was not going as well as he planned, it was as if his muse left him for good. Jun sighed, another trail of smoke coming out of his mouth as he did so.
Tough day. he thought. He closed his eyes, imagining the heroine of his story, but the images of the past characters he had written about kept on pestering him. He gave up, wondering how on earth he ran out of imagination.
Jun instead began humming a tune that came up suddenly, and it was quite a moment before he realized it was from one of L'arc en ciel's, Driver's High. Jun began to sing the chorus and he got so caught up with it that he sang out loud. His voice could be heard within orchard, and he didn't care.

Kayoko saw the small layer of smoke and quickly rushed over with a bucket of water. "Fire!!" Kayoko screamed as she threw the water over a person smoking a cigerette.. ...Oops... ~sweatdrop~

Wooh, oh, oh, oh! Clash! into the rolling morning Flash!---
"What the hell?!" Jun yelled as cold water was poured down all over his front and extinguished his cigarette. His shock didn't wear off immediately and he sat up, staring at his surroundings, wondering how on earth he got wet.
The culprit stood on near him, holding a bucket. Jun's eyes narrowed at the girl and with a lot of effort, he said in a would-be controlled voice, "What the hell did you do that for?"

"Er- Well, I saw some smoke and I thought it was a small fire..I'm sorry.." Kayoko mumbled. Kayoko was wearing a sweater, and she took it off. "Here, I'm really sorry for getting you wet.."

Fire? How ridiculous. Jun thought to himself, preventing a snicker. He threw the wet stick and accepted the sweater, but as he was about to wipe his face with it, he changed his mind.
"No, thanks. I'll manage," he said. "Just don't pour a bucketful of water on people next time."
Jun stood up, his clothes dripping wet and stickied with mud at the back. He was starting to get cold, but he didn't mind.
"Who are you, by the way?" he asked, trying to take his mind off the fact that he was wet.

Kayoko said, "Are you sure? It's quite cold out today..." She said while holding her sweater out. "It's alright, I have another one!" *Wait, I don't...I gave my other sweater to Akemi..* Kayoko thought still holding out her sweater.

It was early in the day and many of the students were still in bed asleep. Camilla had always been an early riser and she found herself alone in the orchard this morning. Dressed in her normal light colored attire, Camilla meandered languidly throughout the trees and flowers. Never in her whole life had she seen trees such as these with light pink blossoms that were extremely delicate. She was hypnotized by the way they flowed in the air around her and this moment was the first time since she arrived at Tama that she actually felt like she was in a foreign country.
Camilla's dark-blonde hair was uncovered today, for she wore no hat and she wore a white tennis sweater and shoes. Her lips were pinched at the ends with a small smile caused by the beautiful scene going on around her, and in her thin hands she clasped a little black notebook. As she rounded a bend, misty voices caught her attention and she changed her route to see what was going on. With the breeze playing with her short hair, Camilla approached a boy and a girl, one of which looked drenched and the other remorseful. "Pardon me, but I could not help but overhear and come over. Is everything alright?" She asked looking to the boy, her clear grey eyes inquisitive.

Kayoko sighed sadly. "Everything's alright, I think.." Kayoko still held her sweater. "It's fine if you take it! I'm really very sorry!" Kayoko apologized for the millionth time.

Jun squeezed out some water from the hem of his shirt.
"No, really, you can keep it, I'll just--" he began saying, but was cut short when another student approached them and began inquiring. Such a pretty girl, but Jun couldn't remember where he'd seen her. He was rather embarrassed at being seen like this, so he mumbled a simple, "No, everything's alright, I'm just wet."
The girl who poured water over him again apologized and offered her sweater for another time, and Jun was still inclined to refuse.
"Look, I forgive you for having the notion that there was a fire here even if it definitely is ridiculous. I forgive you for pouring water all over me even if I had already taken a bath. But I really can't take your sweater. Like you said, it's cold this morning. You can keep yourself warm, while I dry myself up back in my dorm room, alright?" Jun said, sincerely thinking that she's more susceptible to catching a cold than him.

Camilla raised her right eyebrow in a jovial manner. This boy seemed nice enough, modest and almost gentlemanly. "Well that's good. But I must ask, how did you get soaked to the skin like that?" Her eyes traveled to the other girl, Kayoko, and did a brief sweep of her clothes and then returned them to the boy. "I know it hasn't been raining." With those words, Camilla finally walked toward the two students. Tucking a strand of her dark-blonde hair behind her ear, Camilla paused and seemed to assess the boy. "I'm sorry to seem like I am 'ganging up' on you, but I fear I must agree with Kayoko. It is not the weather for running around sopping wet."
((sorry it is short and crappy...I had to post and this was the only free minute I've had...))
