Chapter 1: Hair

Mornings were a struggle. Azusa spent a majority of each morning trying to tame her irritatingly long hair, and today was no exception. She had been up for at least an hour and had spent almost all that time trying to brush through her dark locks.

It was a nightmare. The brush got stuck and no matter how hard Azusa tugged she knew she wouldn't be able to get it out without ripping a large chunk of her hair and scalp with it. She tried just a bit more to wiggle it free from the clutches of her hair. After several more minutes of irritated twisting and turning, the young girl managed to pull the brush free without ripping a chunk of hair from her head.

She turned to look at herself in the mirror and sighed. Instead of getting better, her hair just transformed into a more tangled mess. Admitting defeat, Azusa stepped out of the bathroom and into the kitchen to prepare breakfast.

Attracted by the smell of food cooking, Yui groggily stepped into the kitchen with Azusa, rubbing her eyes and sniffing at the air. She smiled when she saw the plates of food that the younger girl had prepared, and sat herself down at the table, ready to eat.

"Good morning Yui." Azusa happily greeted while she handed the brunette her plate.

"Good morning Azunyan." Yui replied. She wasted no time in digging into the meal, and finished her plate before Azusa even managed to eat half.

"That was delicious!" She exclaimed, rubbing her stomach. Azusa giggled and continued to pick at her food.

"I'm glad you think that. Now put your plate in the sink please." Yui pouted but did as she was told. After she rinsed her dish she crept up behind Azusa and draped her arms over her shoulders.

"I like what you did with your hair Azunyan." The girl in question looked back at the older girl with a puzzled look.

"Yui my hair is awful today. This is the best I could even do." Yui smiled innocently.

"I think you look absolutely wonderful, no matter how messy your hair is." Azusa blushed at the compliment and turned away. "Besides," Yui continued, now whispering into the flustered girl's ear. "Now I can do whatever I want to you and I don't have to worry about messing your hair up."
