Chapter one
Pilot
Where it All Began Part 1
She smiled into the sun. Happy to feel the natural warmth on her delicate face. She carefully tied her shoes and brushed her hair with her small fingers.
Sitting on the front porch, she waited.
Soon she heard foot steps and saw the top of a head over the fence. She knew from the sandy blonde hair who it was. Hiro leaned against the fence pole, his large brown eyes light up when he saw Kisa running towards him, smiling.
"Hiro-san!" she called. She hugged him deeply around the neck; he gently placed an arm on her back. He could a deep breath, drinking her in.
"Hello." He saw, trying to keep his voice from cracking. She smiled, took his hand into hers and began walking.
He looked at the ground and nodded listening to her stories he already heard a thousand times.
"And he said 'you're stupid'. And I said, just leave me alone." Kisa said, proud to tell him of her strength. They walked some more and then Kisa started on a new story Hiro never heard her tell before.
"Oh did I tell you knew you saved me, please by your name?" Kisa asked. Hiro looked up surprised, shook his head and looked at her willing her to continue.
"Oh, well this boy came up to me and he said, 'you'd be cute, if you changed everything about you. You'll probably die…alone.'" Hiro felt his anger start to grow. "And when he said this I was sad, and mad! And I told him I would never die alone. And he said, 'pets don't count.' And I thought oh if you only knew, but I didn't say that. I told him to shut up and walked away but he followed me and kept taunting me." Hiro looked at the ground, trying to hide his anger.
"Well what happened." He urged.
"He kept making fun of my hair and eyes and kept saying I was ugly and would never find anyone to love me. I said no yelled, 'your wrong!' he looked at him with surprise and doubt. 'Oh yeah? Give me a name. Right now.' He demanded. And I said, 'Hiro Sohma.'" Hiro lost his breath and looked at her.
"You said my name?" he asked. She nodded, smiling.
"Yep and he was like 'oh is he your boyfriend?' and I said 'well…..'" Hiro held his breath. "'maybe he is.'" He couldn't believe he ears.
"You said that." He asked she nodded again, blushing slightly.
"He didn't believe me. And I said, 'maybe I should have him come down here, and ask him to kick you butt. I'll never be alone. He will always be there.' Well the boy got really scared and felt me alone after that."
Hiro stopped walking and pulled Kisa into a hug. She smiled when she heard his heart beat fast.
"Kisa, I'll do more than be with you. I'll protect you, forever. No matter what." He looked at her, holding her gaze. "You'll never be alone, scared or unloved as long as I am in the world, as long as I can hold you." He confessed.
Kisa smiled and began to cry.
"What? What's wrong?" He asked, afraid he said something wrong.
"Nothing, you just make me feel…." Kisa tried explaining. "Safe, and happy."
He smiled, they hugged again. In his arms she never felt safer.
Okay, it's only a pilot. Tell me what you think. It starts out when their kids, really young. Ten-ish. The next chapter is the same age, just to put in perspective. Then well zoom into the high school life between these two, and most likely college depending how much peo0ple like the story. R&R
