Disclaimers: That day I went to the store counter in wherever Santa shops and asked for the GW boys. But when the clerk came back after searching their stocks, she told me that the GW boys had already been bought up. So, sadly, I do not own any of the GW boys or the anime. I do, however, own Vespera.

"Why the surprised face? Don't wanna see me?"

The boy's eyes widened in shock and his jaws went slack. Suddenly, he felt that things were a little too much to bear that he took a few involuntary steps backwards.

A gust of cold wind blew into the room from the opened window, and the curtains to fluttered lightly in the air. Through amused eyes, she continued to gaze intently at him. As she waited for some response, she twisted a soft curl of her chestnut hair around a finger absently.
