Ann had gone to visit Shiho at the hospital everyday since her suicide attempt. When she walked into her room she noticed someone sitting next to Shiho's bed. "Um, hey?"Ann said in a nervous tone. You turned towards the voice and smiled seeing that it was Ann. "Hello." You said getting up to offer your seat to Ann. "Are you here to visit Shiho too?"
Ann stayed by the door with a shocked expression on her face. She was the only one, besides Shiho's parents that came to visit Shiho. "Yea, I come here everyday for her." She finally answered and walked in, gladly taking the seat.
"Wow everyday?! Your such a good friend." Ann looked down at Shiho and mumbled to herself "Not really..." not hearing her you continued talking. "My name is (F/N) (L/N) from class 2-C. It's nice to meet you." You extend your hand waiting for Ann to take it. "I'm Ann Takamaki. It's nice to meet you." Ann had taken your hand and given it a firm shake.
After greeting each other the room fell silent. Ann stared at you curiously, you knew what she wanted to ask. Scratching the back of your head you let out a nervous laugh. "Your probably wondering what I'm doing here right?" Ann threw her hands up in defense at your question. "Well yea, but I mean I don't wanna be rude about it! Its just weird seeing someone else here, do you know Shiho?"
"No. I didn't know her, but I heard about what she did. Today I had to come to the hospital to check out my sprained ankle, that's when I heard that a girl from my school was hospitalized here. I know how lonely it is in a hospital so I decided to stop by and see how she was doing."
Ann's heart jump at your words. "Wow that's so nice of you. Thanks for visiting today, I really appreciate it and I bet Shiho does as well!." Ann's bright smile made your heart jump. Blushing slightly you cover your mouth and laugh nervously. "It's no big deal."
Ever since that day you would meet up with Ann whenever she would go visit Shiho. The two of you grew closer to each other everyday. You were someone Ann could confide in, she told you all about her problems and worries and you would be there all the time to help her through them. You loved how honest and strong she was and how she always laughed at your corny jokes. Eventually the two of you fell in love with each other, but both of you were to scared to confess.
Two months had passed and Shiho had finally woke up. Shiho noticed the feeling you both shared and would often make fun of the two of you.
The day Shiho had to leave you decide to take Ann to a buffet to cheer her up. Ann talked about her dream to become a model that Shiho will be proud of. You listened to her all day, encouraging her to follow her dreams.
After a week had passed Ann seemed to be doing better. Ann had invited you to Meiji Shrine for the day. After praying you decided to go to a nearby park. You sat at a bench that had a beautiful view of the lake. "This place sure is beautiful isn't it?" Ann asked, staring at the lake. "Not as beautiful as you Ann." It took all your courage to say it, but you had decided that today was going to be the day you confessed to Ann.
Ann was taken back by your words and blushed lightly. "Ha ha stop joking around (F/N)!" Ann let out a dry laugh and turned her head back to the lake. Both of you sat there in silence for awhile until Ann spoke. "You know, I wanted to go to the shrine today because I wanted to pray for Shiho. I know it's been a week and she wouldn't want me to drag this on but...I just can't you know. I miss her so much! She was my best friend..." Ann was fighting back tears as she spoke.
Ann felt like a part of her world was being ripped away. She felt lost, depressed, angry and alone. suddenly she felt two arms wrap around her. "Your best friend just left, of course you would feel like that, anyone would." you said, pulling Ann into your chest.
Putting a hand on your arm Ann nuzzled against you. "Do you remember what you told me when we first met?" Ann asks. "Hello?" You snicker. "No. You told me I was a good friend to Shiho. I think about that everyday." You feel Ann's tears land on your arm as she speaks. "I wasn't a good friend, I wasn't there for her when she needed me! If only I was, then none of this would have happened to her...and I wouldn't be alone."
Thinking carefully about what to next you release your hold on Ann. Grabbing her hand you stare into her blue eyes. "Wanna know who I prayed for?" Ann nods her head in response. "You. I Knew you would prey for Shiho. The past is something you can't change, you might think you were a bad friend before, but you changed. Since the day we meet I could see how much you've cared for Shiho. You've been working so hard for yourself and for Shiho and that makes you a great friend in my book. That's why today I prayed for you. While you think about Shiho, I'll think about you, the girl that I love."
Ann's eyes widen at your words. "l-love?" "Yea Ann. I love you, I have for a while now. You'll never be alone, because you have me."
Ann's sad tears turn to tears of joy by you words. "I love you too!" Ann jumps into your arms. "Your right I wont be alone. As long as I have you by my side I'll never feel lonely again! Thank you for always being with me (F/N)!" Ann suddenly smashes her lips against yours. You were surprised by her action but quickly wrap your arms around her waist and deepen the kiss.
Needing air you both break the kiss, a trail of saliva still connecting you two. The two of you wiped your moths and look at each other. Faces flushed red, you smile at her and she smiles back. Leaning against your arm, looking at the lake, she tells you she loves you once more.
The walk to Ann's house was quiet, you held her hand the whole way. Finally reaching her doorstep she turns to face you before you leave. "Um...You know, you never told me how you sprained your ankle the day we meet." You let out a loud laugh and tell her "I slipped on a banana and fell down the stairs." Ann yells out "What?" in shock of your response, but before she can say anymore you give her a quick peck on the lips and spin on your heel, waving goodnight to her.
