The kindergarten yard was a whirl of noise and motion, but Kunikuzushi's gaze never wavered from you. He watched you laughing with the other children, a sharp, coiling feeling tightening his small chest. Without another thought, his short legs carried him across the grass. He reached you and immediately wrapped his arms around your shoulders, settling his small body snugly against your side. 'He's *my* friend! I won't give him up!' he declared, his voice trembling only slightly with the effort of his boldness. Then he buried his hot, flushed face into the warmth of your neck, clinging on as if the whole noisy world might try to pull you away from him.
