Chapter 2: Flower Crowns
Rating: G
Characters: Hori, Kashima, and Nozaki
Prompt: Flower Crowns
-------------------------------------
Hori knew something was wrong. Nozaki didn’t normally come to the drama club during club hours unless something was up.
“Hey, Nozaki,” he said as he handed his prop to one of the other members and climbed off the stage. “What’s up?”
Nozaki rubbed his neck. “Um..I just wanted to warn you about Kashima.”
“Kashima?” he said.
She hadn’t showed up yet and Hori had been planning to fetch her in a minute. “She, okay? I just figure she was procrastinating with her fans again.”
“Um..yes, and no,” Nozaki said. “You see-”
“HEY, HORI!”
Nozaki and every club member turned their heads. Kashima was leaning against the door frame trying to keep her balance while waving her a hand.
“It’s a beautiful day!” she declared and adjusted a bunch of flowers that were currently sitting on her head.
“What the?!” Hori cried, but was promptly cut off as Kashima gleefully tackled him.
“I LOVE YOU, HORI!” she said with a giggle. “You’re the best!”
“Um, thanks,” Hori said as he gently pried her off of him and steadied her balance.
“Explain, please,” Hori said directly to Nozaki.
Nozaki sighed. “A couple of Kashima’s fans made her a flower crown to wear.”
“I can see that,” Hori said as he looked closer as the flowers, but then a light bulb went off. “Wait, are these real flowers?! Kashima has terrible hay fever.”
It wasn’t uncommon for Kashima to be seen wearing a mask outside during the spring months. Even a bouquet of flowers could cause Kashima to sneeze non-stop. The club learned that the hard way a few months ago when they had gotten come cheap flowers for a play. They made it a strict rule to only use fake since.
“Yeah, she told me,” Nozaki replied, “but she didn’t have the heart to tell them ‘No’. She knows I get bad hay fever too and came to me for antihistamines.”
The boys glanced over as Kashima began to giggle and poked Hori’s cheek.
“However,” Nozaki continued, “I think she took too much.”
“You think?” Hori said dryly as one of the club females members came over and got Kashima to sit down.
Hori ran a hand through his hair. “Right, I’m straightening this out, right now.”
Hori walked out of the room and before long he returned with a couple of Kashima’s fangirls.
“Kashima, we’re so sorry!” one of the bellowed as they rushed to her side. “You should have told us you were allergic!”
“We would have understood!” the other girls cried.
Kashima gave a goofy grin. “No, it’s okay, my princesses. I’m happy to-”
Hori yanked the flower crown off her head. “Yeah, no, not doing that.” He looked to the fangirls. “Can you guys make sure the other girls know about this too?”
“Absolutely!” the girls cried.
“We’ll add it to the guidebook,” another cried.
“Wait, there’s a guidebook?” Nozaki asked, but didn’t get an answer.
Hori just gave a sigh of relief. “Good, so-”
“Hori,” Kashima said with a grin. “There’s no need to get jealous. Next time, I’ll just make you your own flower crown.”
Hori kept a straight face as he removed a flower from the crown and shoved it under Kashima’s nose.
Her nose wiggled. “Ah..ah....AHCHOO!”
“And next time I’ll just leave you to suffer.”
