With spring around the corner, annoying insects had started to come out of hibernation. Not enough to start swarming people's bodies, but enough to be heard chirping away in the scenery that surrounded the baseball diamond.

"ooof--" Mike sounded, visibly having trouble catching that last pitch. It was not aimed at any normal part of the body you would toss a baseball to. Unless... Unless, unless, unless you really hated the person. And right now Fuu had the look of a woman scorned.
"You always do this, ya...!" The dark skinned villager murmured with her arms crossed and an arch in her brow, "I don't like it when you just invite people to come play with us, ya know?"
"... She knows how to play ball." He knew he shouldn't have said that. He thought it would at least ease Fuu's mind but the look in her eyes told him everything.
"She...?"

Fuu was grinning, all the way up to her eyes as she watched him. She quickly leaned down and touched her toes, holding the stretch for a second before looking back up at her gargantuan friend. "So tell me about she~~" adjusting the flower behind her ear.

Mike crouched down on the spot, resting his elbows on his knees, refusing to answer.

"Pft~ You're always like this~ Mikey Mc Buzzkill~" She said in a playful way, removing her glove and tossing in onto the base and wiping the sweat off her brow. "I need a drink, ya."

He watched Fuu swaying her hips as she moved off and wondered why he had even bothered telling her that Sarah Blueskies might show up to join in. It was most likely out of politeness more than a desire to share what he had achieved in his alone time.

With a single finger, he was tracing a line in the dirt. A straight line, to mimic the way his lips were. And two tiny dots above it.

Sarah smiled excitedly. She was genuinely happy that she was invited to anything but especially to play her favourite game in the world.

She spotted Mike and another girl and waved to them excitedly.

“Thank you for inviting me I cannot wait to show you my skills!” she beamed. She then headed straight to the other girl and held out her hand

“Sarah Blue skies, pleased to meet you!”

"Eh??" Fuu stopped in her tracks as the girl stopped her from walking to the drinking taps to introduce herself. "Oh, okay, hello, I'm Fuu. Ooooookay, so see you around, ya!" She spoke happily, nodding, and without warning she turned on her heel and left the bespectacled girl standing there with no body to talk to.

Crouching a few meters away from where this was taking place, Mike gave the most honest smile he could in an awkward situation like this. His half smile.

"I... don't think she knows ... that you've come to play." He spoke louder to cover the distance. Even though he had heard Sarah thanking him moments ago, he doubted Fuu was paying attention. But seeing that Sarah had actually showed up, even after his less than enthusiastic display near the garden, did a little bit to stroke his small ego. As casually as he could, he gestured towards the equipment bin while scratching the back of his neck with his free hand. "Get a glove, and pick a base."

He stood up to his full height, picking the baseball out from his mitten and rolling his shoulder.

Sarah sighed "I am used to that I think my personality puts a lot of people off me," she sadly smiled and made her way to the equipment. She reached for a glove then began to walk over to the first base.

"I am glad to be invited to something for once," she said getting into position

Mike was afraid of this happening. After listening to what Sarah had to say, it turns out that she had taken Fuu's snub to heart. This made him want to put a palm into his forehead. He didn't though, and only because he understood that not everybody could fathom just how lacking Fuu was in situational awareness.

"Heh. Trust me. It's not you, its her." He tried to comfort, sliding the glasses up his nose and easing into a throwing stance. Sarah would find that sitting on top of the cushion at first base was the glove the Fuu had thrown down earlier before she left for a drink, but Mike did not mention it.
"Yes... Definitely her..." He murmured.

"Tooh!!" He sounded as he threw the ball straight at Sarah's level from the batter's plate. A lot of the throw was in his shoulder, as he followed through he looked up from his finishing stance to see where the ball would land.

"Heh there already is a glove here..." grinned Sarah. She casually puts her foot out and kicks away the glove then prepares for the throw.

Mike threw the ball and Sarah concentrated on its movement. It got closer and closer to her and Sarah just stared at the ball as if she were pinpointing its exact movements.

"Okay this is it..." she muttered to herself as the ball landed right into the glove.

She cheered and did a silly and very embarassing victory dance while still clutching the ball

He was content with giving Sarah her moment. It was almost like this was her first time catching a ball. No... This seemed like her first time, playing with... dare he even think it... a friend?

Those eagle eyes of his noticed that Fuu's glove that had been kicked aside. In fact, watching Sarah do this surprised him a little that it caused him to almost mess up his throw. He gazed solemnly towards the meaningless item, while Sarah pranced around.

Regardless, Mike didn't do anything to bring her back down to earth. She looked happy dancing her silly dance on first base. He stood still, watching her with his typical bland expression, as he waited for the ball to be lobbed back to him.

She stopped dancing and noticed Mike was looking at her. She then began to turn a very bright red.

"Sorry...just not used to playing this game with anyone other than my adopted dad...wow am I burning up...." she puts her hand on her head and rubbed it.

After a few seconds of unconfortable embarassment she held out the ball and got ready to throw it towards Mike

In the time that it had taken for Sarah to settle down Mike had readied himself to catch whatever she could throw at him. But suddenly he had relaxed out of the stance and straightened up. He misinterpreted Sarah's comments about 'burning up,' to be a sign of exhaustion as a apposed to embarrassment.

"Go and get a drink if you need one."

Sarah smiled and got into a throwing stance "I am fine...but thank you anyway your kindness is much appreciated,"

She then began to wave her throwing hand back and forth to provide the power of her throw then tossed it towards Mike. She smiled at herself for her pretty awesome throw and hoped that Mike could catch it.

He bashfully threw a glance the other way and couldn't help keep the corners of his lips from curling upwards at her eagerness to play on. And what was all this talk about kindness? It was almost enough to make Mike fumble his catch.

Cupping his hand over his leather mitt, he paused and stared down at the ball for exactly a second. Then he scooped it out and tossed it back at her. Sarah and Mike carried on like this in beautiful silence for a good ten minutes .... before he spotted a certain orange-haired beach bunny returning from her break.

He don't know what possessed him to do it, but upon seeing the first sign of Fuu just passed the tennis courts, Mike tossed the ball with a lot more force. The ball would definitely soar right over Sarah's head and far behind her. She would have to work those legs if she wanted to retrieve the ball in a timely fashion, because not only did he throw too far but also just about 40 degrees off course.

Mike straightened up without changing the seriously bland expression on his face. He said nothing to Sarah but was determined to get the message across. He simply raised his hand over his eyes as though trying to spot something in the distance.

Sarah did indeed reach for the ball however it went higher than even she could jump and all she could do was stupidly stare into the distance as the ball disappeared completely....

She sat down on the base and sighed Aw and I was enjoying myself as well. Do we have a spare ball or several if you keep throwing like that? There was almost a tinge of sarcasm in her usual joyful tone of voice

Mike shook his head as an answer to Sarah's quip. "Just one. And we worked really hard to get that ball." He gave her a look that said he would very much appreciate it if she went and fetched the ball -- but for different reasons entirely.

Fuu was getting closer as she strolled across the footpath that diverged into different sections of the athletic field. At this rate she was going to see Mike playing with another girl... Not good. He failed to understand why this was such an important thing to him, and was deeply confused by his own actions.

Could it be that he actually... had feelings for..?
......
...
.

He suddenly seemed a little pale in the face. That outcome was clearly not desirable. Instead he looked up to first base, checking Sarah's status. Would she continue to stand her ground, or would she go and bring back the ball?

"I'll be right back...I said I would never use song magic while on the grounds but a short burst should not hurt I think...."

She placed her hands on her Necklace and all four song stones began to glow a blinding white. She was singing a lovely little melody as the power charged up. Then with a grin she began to run very,very fast....

"bebackinaflash!" She said as the magic speeded up her voice as well as her limbs

She ended up where the ball landed but annoyingly the magic wore off. it would take some time to resing it. So she decided to walk back normally.

Mike held in a sigh of relief as Sarah disappeared in a flash, (and was thankful it wasn't the literal kind.) Honestly, what was the big deal? They were just playing catch, it wasn't like they were... playing something else... At this thought Mike tried not too appear flustered. He tried occupying his thoughts by removing his glove and taking off his glasses in order to clean them with the end of his shirt. Then he noticed a blurry outline of Fuu who was now standing right beside him. He quickly put his glasses back on, and..... gulped.

wearing:school uniform

"Sorry I took so long. Were ya boOOoored~?" Fuu said in a sing song kind of way. "Sakura-chan was running down at the track. She told me to say hi. So I SAID hi. Then she called me a fool and squirted tap water at me! What was I supposed to do? That's right! I had to show her who was the queen-hoser, yaaa." She said, putting a hand on her hip with a playful smirk. "And I would have got her good if she wasn't so much faster than me. Huff. Turns out she didn't want me to say hi to her. She wanted me to say hi to you. So hi. Eheh."
"Hi." He responded while being mesmerized by her water soaked top, tied up at the front in a way that revealed..... everything.. Did she walk all the way here like this...? The weather is still too mild for this... At this rate she was going to get sick. He felt a desire to grab his jacket on the wooden seat and wrap it around her for decency.

Meanwhile Fuu's attention moved onto someone walking over towards them from center field.

She stayed quiet for a moment, while Mike craned his neck to see what she was looking at. He swallowed something in his throat again. Why did he think throwing the ball away would improve his situation... what a stupid idea. "... Sarah."
