Her childhood friend, Red!

    by: Unknown
"Red?!" Leaf exclaimed, grabbing her hat. "What are you doing here?"

"Oh, hey, Leaf." Red said, rubbing the back of his head. Leaf frowned and helped him to his feet. She and Red had been friends for almost as long as she could remember. Hanging around town, climbing trees (Red was a real outdoorsy type) and going to school together. Recently, that had extended to their shared past time of lazing around, doing next to nothing. People often joked that they might as well have been brother and sister, both even being of roughly the same height and, to Leaf's chagrin, the same skinny body type.

"Ack! Red! Slow down!" Leaf complained. Her stomach was still tight, and sore from the fall, so the jostling was not appreciated. "I had a heavy breakfast."

Red let go of her and grinned sheepishly. "Sorry. Oh man, I can't believe I forgot breakfast. I'm starved."
