Never Enough Time
Some things to know
Baka - idiot
Onee-sama - Sister
Yamiyurikai - The Student Council
The Roses - The Roses are the three third year students that run the
Yamiyurikai. They consist of Rosa Gigantea - Shimako, Rosa Foetida -
Rei, and Rosa Chinesis - Sachiko.
Rosa en Buton - Basically French for Rose Bud. They are the petite
Soeurs to the Roses and normally are the ones to take their place next
year at the Yamiyurikai.
Rosary - A cross that is given by the school to the students. It is an
important item in the Soeur system; the older students place the rosary
around the younger student's neck and make them their petite soeur.
The story takes place at the Lillian School for Girls, it is an all
girls Catholic School and runs on a Soeur system. Soeur is the French
Word for Sister. The older students take in a younger student to be
their Petite Soeur. My Story is a fan-fic based off of the main Soeur
couple from Maria-sama Ga Miteru - Yumi and Sachiko, the anime has some
Shoujo elements to it and most fan-art is under Yuri due to the extreme
tension that they push on the girl's relationships with their Soeurs.
Although it is still debated on what is what, I wanted to post a story
based off of Sachiko and Yumi.
This story is 14 days long and might take some time; I am no good at
writing, sorry.

~DAY 1~
Yumi busted threw the gate quickly breathing heavily, her chest heaving.
Her short hair was pulled up in pony tails like every day, today wearing
red ties. ? Sachiko-sama is going to be so mad.? She thought in peril,
how could she have been so stupid. This was common of the second year
student; often making a silly mistake and arriving late even to the most
important event. However she felt she had to, she needed to look perfect
today and spent allot of her time fixing her hair up, that was very like
her, over analyzing her decisions afraid of what Sachiko might think if
she did anything wrong, always walking on a trapeze wire. To Yumi it
felt so surreal and she tried to ignore the fact that Sachiko would be
graduating in two weeks. They had been at Lillian for 2 years together
and to Yumi it felt so unrealistic to find someone like Sachiko, she was
perfect in everyway so elegant in everything she did and to Yumi she was
an angel sent from heaven. Her steps slowed down as she saw the figure
of a tall girl standing in front of the statue of the Virgin Mary, the
woman's hair was long and blue, her body covered in a dark green
uniform.
"Onee-sama?" She asked as she stood a few feet away looking at her feet
embarrassed for being late, they promised to meet by the statue every
morning until Sachiko had to leave. Sachiko was in her third year and
had the title of Rosa Chinesis; she had come from a wealthy family and
was often very closed up emotionally. She could be so cold and serious
Yumi would feel shivers, yet would be so kind as to even wipe Yumi's
mouth when she had coughed while drinking, times like that were often
some of Yumi's most cherished memories. It was not so often the two had
their differences, like how Sachiko ate everything with a fork and knife
including her sandwiches, or the face that Yumi would use improper
edicate while eating. The older girl turned around with a blank mouth
and cold eyes, but a smile quickly formed on her lips as she took in the
sight of her petite soeur always doing something to draw attention when
she normally wanted to stay quiet, it made her giggle a bit
"Your late Yumi-chan" She said lovingly and Yumi quickly rose her head
hearing Sachiko's tone and scurried quickly to her side. Both put their
hands together and bowed in front of the statue as a quick prayer.
That's when Yumi remembered that the meeting at the Rose Mansion was
cancelled due to the fact that Rei and Yoshino were busy with kendo
club.
"Yumi-chan?" Sachiko said as soon as they finished and the 2nd year
stared at her quizzically. "Yes, Onee-sama?" Sachiko took Yumi's hand
and held it tightly.
"Let me walk you to class" Her cheeks became a deep red as she stared up
at Sachiko and gulped her heart beating faster
"O-Ok...." She said and they walked to toward the Math Hall. Yumi was
trying to keep her breath steady now; Sachiko's hand was so soft yet
held hers so firmly, the 2nd Year couldn't help it as she kept worrying
about all the little things. Was her hand sweating, would Sachiko be
disgusted with her if she was? Or maybe she wasn't holding her hand
right, was there even a way to hold someone's hand right? She kept
pondering all the bad responses.
"We're here" Yumi looked around
"Wha...?" She saw her classroom door and sighed, she spent that whole
time worrying about things instead of enjoying it.
"I will see you at lunch" She said and let go of her hand patting her
shoulder then walking off. Yumi blushed and waved slightly
"Yes Onee-sama" she replied nodding then walked inside to see the girls
staring at her.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The group seems to stare at her like she was an alien, until a girl with
two long French braids and slightly pale skin pushed through. She was
Yoshino another member of the Yamiyurikai and the Rosa en buton to Rosa
Foetida. Ever since last year Yoshino was much more active after her
surgery, she was one of the feistiest girls at the school and if you
told her it was impossible, she would do it anyways even at the cost of
her own limbs. Yoshino pushed threw and grabbed Yumi's wrist pulling her
to the corner of the class
"Yoshino-san, what's going on?" She asked seeing some of the others
still staring
"Well Tsutako...." she pointed at Tsutako who was showing her camera to
a group of girls and telling them a story that was obviously attracting
alot of attention. 'Tsutako.....' Yumi whined inside, she was always
doing this. Taking a picture of something than exploiting it like a
parasite, if it weren't for them being friends Yumi might....... no she
wouldn't even if they were worst enemies Yumi was way to passive to do
anything and Tsutako would just end up making a story out of it in the
end, she sighed.
"Like I was saying Tsutako was up in the English dorm taking pictures of
the cherry blossoms and some students when she.... well saw you and Rosa
Chinesis together and focused in for a picture, she saw you blushing and
then she claims Rosa Chinesis was holding your hand. Ever since she has
been at class telling everyone about it." Yumi blushed, her eyes widened
as she thought of the newspaper club giving headlines for it in their
next issue. Touko was going to find her and yell at her, Mami-san and
Minako would try and get an interview. And when Sachiko is to find
out..... She buried her face into the desk. She heard someone laugh and
pat her back.
"What's wrong Yumi-chan?" Yumi jumped and turned
"Most girls would be glad to get so close to Rosa Chinesis" Yoshino
interrupted by dropping her book on the table.
"Tsutako-san, why are you here?" The girl fixed her glasses and grinned
"First off Yumi is a good friend of mine." This was true, they had known
each other since Middle School "Secondly, because I need Yumi's
permission for the newspaper club to use this..." She pulled out a photo
of Sachiko holding Yumi's hand by the statue of Mary. Immediately she
tried to grab it only so the photographer would hold it above her head.
"You know the rules, if you want it you have to give me yours, and
Sachiko's permission"
She smiled "Well just tell me when you do" She grinned and walked off
"But..." Yumi called only to be silenced by the bell and sat down in her
seat the rest of the class doing nothing, but worry about her situation.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
"Oh... ok see you Yoshino-san" Yumi said and waved as Yoshino walked
off. She had to help Rei train at the Kendo Club again, however she did
promise this time that her and Rei would be able to go to the meeting,
which was good news for her and Sachiko since the Yamiyurikai was
already slightly short-handed.
"Ah!" She said and finally remembered hurrying off, Sachiko was probably
in the greenhouse waiting for her, 'Oh please don't be mad Onee-sama'
she thought pleading with herself to get the image of her Onee-sama's
angered face out of her head. She made it outside and turned the corner
and stopped dead in her tracks 'Shimako-chan!' Shimako was another
second year, only since a former third year of the Yamiyurikai made her
a petite soeur last year, she was left to take the title of Rosa
Gigantea, so proper and deep, beautiful with wavy golden brown hair
looked near heavenly as the petals of the Cherry Blossom trees fell on
her. The site was one that most students would find awe-inspiring in
itself as she stood with her flowing in the wind, however there was more
to this site. A young girl was being held tenderly in her arms, and what
Yumi saw made her blush. Noriko, Shimako's petite Soeur short black
hair, and very temperamental. She was only at Lillian on an accident,
and has the desire to become a Buddhist, but was never once rejected for
this fact despite the school being a catholic one. The two were near
exact opposites, but that is not what was being shown here. Holding each
other in a tight embrace as the wind passed through there their hairs
and a tornado of pink petals swirling around them.
Yumi blushed watching, but not them, at least not after awhile. Two new
faces seemed to form on Shimako and Noriko... in fact even their bodies
seemed different, her eyes widened as she saw herself behind held by
Sachiko. Sachiko's lips saying inaudible words that made her illusion
blush and lean upward, so close... why was she thinking about this?
Almost touching, breathing on each other... Sachiko's soft hands holding
her cheeks
"Onee-sama...... I...." A hand touched her shoulder suddenly and Yumi
went flying
"Ah!!!" She screamed and fell into the open on her butt, Shimako and
Noriko letting each other go and rushing to her side.
"Sorry Yumi-chan....." it was a familiar voice from above "Onee-sama!"
Yumi said and hopped to her feet.
"Did I scare you?" Sachiko asked looking concerned
"No.... I was just surprised..." Her head darted to her feet.
"Yumi-san" Noriko was tapping Yumi's shoulder until Yumi finally turned
to look "What were you doing?" Noriko gave a cold stare
"Sorry... I was going to the green house...and..." She was trying to
think up an excuse
"And what!?" Noriko said quickly getting annoyed, Yumi was trying to get
out words, but she couldn't how could she say what she was doing....
"I was...." Sachiko moved in front of Yumi
"I'm sorry Rosa Gigantea and Noriko" She said referring to Shimako and
her petite Soeur,
"Me and Yumi were going to the greenhouse and we didn't want to disturb
you two, isn't that right?" Yumi looked up at Sachiko, she was so calm
and cool, coming to her rescue like a knight right when she needed her.
Finally shaken from her dreamy state, the young girl responded.
"Y-Yes..." She said and bowed "Sorry Noriko-san and Shimako-chan"
Sachiko held Yumi's wrist
"Please don't let this incident bother you." Sachiko said and began to
drag Yumi along, however Yumi didn't mind it one bit; in fact she
enjoyed being led along by Sachiko.
"Umm..... Sachiko-sama..." Shimako interjected with a soft kind voice "I
have a favor to ask of you and Yumi." She smiled sweetly and they both
turned
"Yes?" The both said in unison and Yumi looked down blushing a bit.
Shimako smiled at this
"Me and Noriko have a date planned on Saturday, but.... we have both
never actually been on a real one, since you and Yumi are so close, I
was hoping you would accompany us." Noriko seemed to have something to
say, but Shimako waved her off.
"We accept, think of it as an apology for disturbing you" Sachiko
responded immediately, Yumi blushed, but smiled a bit the way she was so
smart and assertive made Yumi happy, but she quickly regained composure
and stood trying not to look stupid in front of Sachiko.
"It's getting late and me and Yumi-chan have to eat lunch. See you
tomorrow Shimako-san and Noriko-san" She said and walked off
"Ah... See you soon" Yumi said quickly as Sachiko led her down the brick
path to the green house.
Noriko sighed once they were gone "We don't have a date planned
Shimako-chan..." She said slightly confused. Shimako smiled
"I've only known them for a bit, but Sachiko isn't as comfortable with
her feelings and will never do anything romantic without a push, and
Yumi-san is so disingenuous and keeps things bottled up, so it would be
impossible for her to reveal how she feels." Noriko looked at Shimako,
smiling a bit. "Your very considerate Shimako-chan." She said and put
her arms around Shimako again
"They are our friends so we should do what we need to assure them
happiness, so on Saturday we have to do everything to nudge them closer
together." She pressed against Noriko.
"Don't worry, leave it all to me!" She smiled and cuddled into Shimako.
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Sachiko smiled and opened the door, the sent of the roses was filling
the air and both Yumi and Sachiko took in the aromatic fragrance.
"Ah, Onee-sama it smells so great in here, even better then the last
time we were in here" She said and giggled to herself. Sachiko sat down
"The gardening club planted new flowers awhile back and they are coming
into bloom, I wanted us to see them together." Yumi turned to see
Sachiko, she held her hands behind her back, Yumi's cheeks becoming red
as she watched, such a beauty surrounded by the red roses the light of
the sun glimmered around her. Yumi looked at the floor trying to hide
her face, but she soon after felt her chin being lifted.
"Yumi-chan, I have something special for you" She said and leaned
forward, 'Onee-sama! Are you really going to-Oh! So sudden, but I....'
she leaned upward puckering her lips, she felt something in her hair
fiddling, her pigtails-'Even if it is a bug, it's Onee-sama and she is
so much more important!'
"Done!" Yumi opened her eyes and her whole body went red like a steamed
lobster as she backed up "Is something wrong Yumi-chan? Don't you like
it?" She blushed
"What is it Onee-sama?" Yumi felt her hair and felt a flower.
"I bought it earlier; guess what sort of flower it is." Yumi thought
then shrugged her shoulders "It's a Rosa Chinesis, you will be taking
over the title in a bit and I wanted to-" Yumi immediately cut her off
"I..... Don't want to talk about that, just not right now..." Yumi said
looking down 'Onee-sama, your not going to be here long... can't we just
be happy and pretend that it isn't going to happen? I don't want to say
your going, so why should we speak about it? I just, want to be with you
right now. Stop talking about it please, it hurts to much. It hurts to
much.' She thought what she wanted to say, but no words came out. 'I
want to tell you, why can't I. I'm being such an idiot, why can't I
talk... Am I afraid of what you will think, will you call me selfish?'
Yumi looked up at Sachiko with big eyes, tearing up as she stared at
her. Sachiko quickly pulled Yumi close and stood strong
"I understand, don't worry Yumi-chan." She rubbed her back and smiled
lightly holding the fragile girl close. 'Onee-sama..... Your so warm,
don't let me go.' Sachiko laughed a bit trying to cheer Yumi up, "For
now we are here together so don't worry." It took awhile, before Yumi
finally pulled back smiling she saw Sachiko reach into her pocket and
pulled out a handkerchief.
"Hold still" She was assertive in tone as she then began to wipe Yumi's
eyes, watching as the En Bouton blushed deeply, Sachiko couldn't help,
but giggle lightly at this.
"What's so funny?" Yumi said looking up at her, but Sachiko just smiled
it off.
"Let's have lunch." The two girls sat down in the garden of Red Roses
and smiled peacefully as they ate their lunch in a quiet bliss as if the
world would stand still like that, however like a knife threw butter the
bell rang and their paradise shattered for now. Yumi sighed and got up,
Sachiko's hand rested on her shoulder
"Yumi-chan, don't bring lunch tomorrow. I have another surprise" She
said and smiled
"Yes Onee-sama, we should hurry back to class." The Blue-haired Red Rose
nodded and took Yumi's hand lightly again leading her to the music hall.
'I can't even concentrate!' She thought and stared at the music book
intensely trying to pay attention, but all the thoughts ran through her
head again and again. 'What's her surprise, what will I do about the
date, how many times will I think these things!? It's not solving
anything!' she finally shut her eyes and sighed resting her head on the
desk 'I give up.....' The young girl thought, after three classes of
these endless questions she couldn't stand it and just wanted to fall
down and give in, but she couldn't just do that! She sat up at once and
was about to hit her fists against the table when the bell rang.
"Class is already over?" She mumbled to herself and got up; she was
still in some sort of dazed state thinking to herself with a
dumb-founded stare on her.
"Yumi-san your supposed to help clean up!" A girl with long red hair
said, but Yumi was off in another world inside her head and was soon out
into the hall way. All she could think about was Sachiko and everything
they had gone threw together, all of it rushing in exact order. Until
finally she saw Sachiko's form in front of her smiling happily at her.
"I love you Yumi-chan" she heard Sachiko's voice say and a flash of her
appeared.
"I love you Yumi-chan. I love you Yumi-chan....." Again and again and
again.
"Don't you love me Yumi-chan?"
"Onee-sama, you don't understand.... I love you too, but..... It's
different" She said to the illusion of Sachiko she saw in her mind.
"Can't you understand Onee-sama? Can't you tell....?" She said tearing
up a bit
"Don't cry Yumi-chan... I'm right here; just tell me what you want. What
do you want Yumi-chan..... what do you want?" The pigtailed girl stared
out as the images of Sachiko surrounded her asking again and again....
"I don't know!" She screamed out and heard voices, inaudible to her, but
they seemed surprised. Most of them were crowding around her and staring
like she was a ranting lunatic and from their point of view she was.
Head to head, they were all shadows staring right into her, into her
mind and soul... she felt herself backing away it seemed like she was
about to fall of a cliff. She couldn't do anything, her legs couldn't
even move, she was ready to break down and start crying and she didn't
know why.
"Yumi-chan...I see you waited for me." She felt a hand on her shoulder
and Sachiko stood over her.
"Is this another illusion?" She asked quietly and all the blue haired
woman did was smiled and shake her head.
"Now, I assume everyone else has somewhere to go as do me and Yumi-chan,
please excuse us" She said and held her arm pulling her along and past
the crowd of girls.
"Thank you... Onee-sama" She said quietly to Sachiko. 'I think I know
what I want....' A slight smile formed on her lips, 'I want... to be
with you, Onee-sama'.
