Adrian and his sister ran across the pack lands towards the glen. They stayed neck and neck the entire way. Adrian could hear both of their hearts pumping fast as the twins pushed themselves to go faster. Adrian had a big smile on his face the entire time. He even laughed one time but stopped because it came out labored. Before too long Adrian could see the glen and glanced over at his sister. He was sure he was going to win, being just a few centimeters ahead of her. But then his foot his something under the snow and he stumbled, his weight going forward as he turned the could be fall into a roll. He saw his sister touch a boulder to his right as he managed to roll on his shoulder and land in a soft pile of snow. Adrian ended up on his back in the snow, panting.
Adrian looked up at his sister's face, laughing though it hurt his already stretching sides. Her face held a grin just like his own. Her tongue was hanging out just like his and her sides were heaving. It wouldn't have been funny except it was Hotaru. The two had a special connection. They were like to pieces of bark that fit together perfectly. When they were together, nothing could stop them. And they were very rarely not together. He saw a side of his sister that she never showed anyone else. When it was just the two of them, Adrian could see the real Hotaru, and he realized how much it meant that she only let him see that side of her. That thought made Adrian's grin spread ever farther across his face as he stood up, covered in snow. He shook himself, throwing some snow onto Hotaru in the process. He just grinned at her and look surprised as she held something out to him. Knowing Hotaru, it could by any number of amazing things. He reached out and took it with barely contained curiosity and excitement.
Adrian unwrapped the leather from the small wooden instrument and inhaled sharply. The wood was beautifully carved and Adrian loved the color. He ran his hand over the carved design, trying to think of something to say. It was very rare that Adrian found himself at a lose of words. The male always had something to say. But he couldn't think of anything that could describe the emotions of awe and wonderment rising up inside of him. He looked from Hotaru to the recorder then grabber Hotaru up in a big hug, lifting her off her fit and spinning her. "I love it. Thank you so much Hotaru. You are the best sister in the world." He said, as he set her down at last, grinning like a big buffoon. He let go of her and experimentally blew on the recorder. The sound was rough but clear. He played a few different notes, experimenting with the note system and where to place his fingers. After he thought he had it down for the most part, he grinned at her. "Want me to play you something? You pick." He said, with an excited look dancing in his eyes. Music was his passion and he was always willing to play. Especially for Hotaru.
