[ P - Pre-Teen ]

003 - Yellow
His hair's not really blond, it's more…yellow.
Takeru sighed, twisting the shaggy strands of sunny hair in between his pale fingers. He really doesn't like his hair, it makes him stand out too much.
He's not dumb after all, he knows when people first meet him their first impressions are always the same. Blond hair, blue eyes, no way in hell is that boy Japanese.
Damn French roots.
Takeru still remembers the looks he got on his first day at school. The stares that somehow managed to strip him of his confidence and hopeful chatter. The stares that successfully left Takeru throwing up his guts in the nurse's office all day.
Damn low self-esteem.
The boy grabs another chunk of hair, contemplating how much it would hurt if he yanked it out.
But…then again, Daisuke always liked his hair. Takeru sighed, and chewed the inside of his cheek.
Daisuke never made snide comments about it, he never said how `un-Japanese' it made him…on the contrary actually, Daisuke liked it.
Said it reminded him of the sun, of summer, of buttercups and Daffodils.
He told him to never change.
Takeru lets out another resigned sigh, releasing his hair from the strained hold, before shaking his head and grinning.
Well, if Daisuke likes it, it can't be all that bad, can it?
