I had an idea that kind of goes along with an anime show called Tsubasa Resivoir Chronicle. It's where a child about 7 years old (Oliver) is found in the pouring rain, and has been there for about a week. No one would take him in because he is missing his eye and is covered with bandages and dried blood. The boy sat there so long that he gave up on the world. Then, a nice, generous man finds him sleeping in the alley he was always in, and takes him in. The man teaches him everything he needed to know, and the boy learns the meaning of trust and friendship. But half of his heart was still frozen in ice. The man he later calls father is an archiological digger, and is in very good terms with the lands king. The king has a daughter (Yuki) that is about a year younger than the boy, and smiles to the boy when they see each other for the first time. The king asks the girl if she would like to be friends with the boy, and she quickly shakes her head no. The boy sees this and looses hope of being friends with her. The king says "Now listen. This boy has gone through so much hard times, he doesn't really understand how hard it was. His good father has melted half of his frozen heart, but the other half needs more. Something like a warm ray of sunshine in the spring." in a gentle voice. The girl understands and nods her head yes. The king and the boy's father have to talk about the dig, so they let the two go on they're own. "Hello, I'm Yuki! What is your name?" The girl asks, smiling warmly to the boy. "H-hello. I'm O-Oliver. It's a p-pleasure t-to m-meet y-you." The boy replies in a quiet, shy tone. He is very nervous and is stuttering over his words. "You don't have to be nervous! Here! Let's go to a place i really like!" She says, taking his hand and walking outside. "O-okay." The boy blushes and follows her to a place he's never been to before.

The place is a tower high above the castle, and you could see the whole land from it. It was a really beautiful sight, and the boy was flattered. "Do you like it? It's my favorite place! Escpecially at sundown! You should come back later and watch it with me!" The girl offers generously. "R-really?" The boy asks back. "Yeah! Can you?" She asks. "S-sure." He replies. The boy feels his heart open up like a rose, and the ice was gone.

The boy returns later, and they watch the sun fall and the moon rise. "Y-yuki?" The boy asks. "Yes, Oliver?" she replies, looking at him. "I-I just want t-to tell y-you... tell you..." He trails off. "Tell me what?" She asks, getting closer. "I-i want to t-tell you th-thank you..." He says, trailing off again. And for the first time in a long time, the boy smiles to her. "Oliver... You smiled! You finally smiled!" The girl cheers into the night.

(I know this is pretty long, but if you could use it, go ahead!)
