Well some people said I should make my dream and story so I thought "What the heck!" and decided to. Here it is!

Gemstone Eyes
Chapter 1
If I had know that he would have met that much to me I would have never given him a room. But I did, and our story unravelled shortly after.
"Hello. Welcome to the Kimicho Inn. For one night it costs one thousand two hundred yen. Would you like a room?" I gave the usual spiel. "Yes please." The group said. "Alright, how many nights and how many people?" I asked. "Seven nights and five people." They answered. "Okay! I'll show you to your rooms." I said. We walked up the stairs and I tried hard not to fall on my kimono, even though I had been wearing one for as long as I could remember.
"These two rooms will be yours to share. If you need anything just call for me. My names Sayuri." I smiled. I finally got a look at the group. A man and woman with tight expressions stood together. "Okaasan and Outosan." I thought. Three boys stood in front of them. The smallest one had black hair and brown eyes and looked fairly tired. The middle one also had black hair, but hazel eyes. It was the oldest looking one that caught me off surprise. He had shaggy brown hair but his eyes were a emerald green. That's all I could look at were those gemstone eyes. "Oh! Alright have a nice stay." I quickly said after a few minutes and ran off.

After several days I learned his name, which was Ren. It was getting close to the tea ceremony so I prepared for it. My parents had enrolled me in tea ceremony since I was twelve and I had almost perfected it. Being an innkeepers daughter required things like that. Tonight I would perform a traditional dance. The clock hit the time and all the guests who wanted tea came down. Ren was one of them.
It went by like a breeze. I served it to each and every one of them and they all had a sparkle in their eyes. They always did after a tea ceremony. Ren muttered a thank you and looked away after I smiled. A little disheartened I went back to my room.

Before dinner my Father told me something interesting. "We will invite the Sakimoto's to dinner with us. Be on your best behaviour you hear?" He instructed. "Why Father?" I asked. "They are a very wealthy family. We might make something of it." He said I nodded. We set the table and waited for the Sakimoto's.
To my surprise Ren and his family walked into our room. I looked down when serving the food and tried not to make eye contact. The night slowly warmed up, and I knew a lot more about him. This boy with brown hair and emerald eyes seemed to be very interesting.
