Amicizia

[Ryuu Arai]

This was the final rose for Ryuu Arai, and spreading smiles kind of made him happy. But, ending such a thing, it brought a hint of sadness to him. He found himself at the Hufflepuff house table, looking at the final rose. It was yellow, and the name was not familiar. He called up the table, "Nixon! Is there a Nixon here?" Ryuu kept his eyes peeled for someone that would recognize his name being called out, so that Ryuu would go over to the boy and give him a friendship rose. Whoever sent it must have been close to the boy.

[Nixon Mercury]

Receiving one rose had been enough of a surprise for Nixon, but receiving two roses was almost completely unbelievable. Unbelievable to the point where Nixon thought he imagined someone calling his name, until he looked up and heard his name again. He walked over to the person calling for him and said. "I'm Nixon!" With a bright smile on his face. He had seen the person delivering roses to other people that day but found it difficult to believe he was being given another rose despite all signs telling him so.​

 

[Ryuu Arai]

Oh! It was a little firstie! Ryuu waved toward the boy before he held out the rose with a note with it. He smiled toward the younger boy and said, "Happy Valentine's day! I hope you have a great day!" The note had to be a good one, since it came with the note. Ryuu figured that the boy would have a quiet one at the very least. Firsties were a bit young for affections and feelings of love.

Spoiler: Note

Dear Nixon Mercury,

I hope everything is going well for you my Hufflepuff Friend! Have you used Piggy yet this semester to mail home? I bet he is looking for an excuse to stretch his wings and get out of the castle before Winter sets in!
