REVIEW count: 0

Let's start! I don't own vocaloid!
…

I'm Rin, and I was staring again.

I was staring through the pond once more.

I was trapped here ever since SHE came here. Yes I was in love. I was punished for that. It was in the cruelest way too. I was trapped in this pond.

Yes, this water had a glass surface, it waved, it ripped, but no one can go through it.

Time never passes here.

I'm alone. So alone.

Yet I'm not lonely. I get to see him every day.

I don't know his name, or what he's like.

I hold to my chest the message in a bottle I received, so many years ago from the boy I loved. Loved.

Remember how I mentioned time never passes here? I would know. I'm still fourteen while it's been over a hundred years.

I still watch him. Ever so quietly I watch him.

He sighs, and walks onto the water.

Yes, he knows of the pond. The pond's glassy surfaces, the way it looks shallow far away, but up close you can see how it never ends. He doesn't notice me though, I choose to stay hidden.

I don't want him to stop coming here.

I looked at my message hidden in my bottle. I yearned to open it, but water did not allow me.

I realized thinking caused me to sink, so I quickly swam up, but this caused me to hit the glassy surface.

He looked down, and I tried to swim away.

He could have seen me… and I was sure he did.

BOY POV

I was finally home from school, to find my sister being beat by my drunk father again.

This happened a lot, since mom died that is. I easily knocked him out using some vase.

"Lenka…" I mumbled as I usually do before I go.

"You're leaving again?" Lenka asked.

"I'm not staying here," I sighed.

"Don't… don't get hurt," my sister requested.

"I won't," I said as I left the house.

I headed toward my pond. My secret pond. MY magic pond. My pond that only my sister knows of.

Yes, this pond never ends, and you could stand right on its glassy surface.

I passed some cherry trees, so close together it acted like a fence around my pond.

I stared at it for a spit second, then sighed, and walk right on it. It rippled suddenly. So I looked down.

There a girl was swimming away.

"what in the world?" I mutter.

I wondered what it was. A nymph? A mermaid? Must be something magical.

After a few moments of it not returning, I walked away, but not before leaving a note on the water.

… RIN POV.

When I was sure he was gone, I swam back up, trying not to get my legs tied up in seaweed.

I pressed my hands to the top of the glassy water. There was a note. Or a letter?

Hey, I'm Len.

I'm nice so don't worry.

I won't tell people about you.

But who are you?

WHAT are you?

I stared at it for a while. I didn't know how to respond.

What could I do?

I can't write anything in water.

He wouldn't be able to hear me through the glass. I sunk a little, feeling depressed. We could finally meet, but I had no means communication.

I remember that… back when I wasn't trapped. There was a crazy man with no tongue. I forget his real name, but I remember since he couldn't he used a body language.

I never had a conversation with him, so I had no idea how to do so.

I went back to the small cave I lived in, and took a nap. Hopefully a deep sleep would clear my head.

… Len Pov

It's been a two day since I saw that girl again, then again I seemed to avoid the lake all together.

I almost let her get found out. I was writing a note in class, but class president caught me. She would have read it if I didn't crumple it up, and throw it in the trash. That whole day at school didn't seem to go well. I got sent to the principal's office for rejecting some girl. What was I supposed to do? Say yes, and live horribly till she dumps me? It's like girls rule this dumb school. Make one cry, and that's it! You're expelled!

Guess that's a bit of topic.

I found myself skipping the house today. My dad was away, and my sister was at Miku's house.

I went right to the lake, but was disappointed to see the girl wasn't in sight. I walked onto the water, and cupped my face to the glassy surface. I could see around the pond much better, but failed to find the girl. Did I imagine her?

I tapped the glass a few times, causing some fish to stir, I threw my backpack onto the glass this time.

That's when I saw her. She swam up quickly, pressing her hands to the glassy water. She banged on it for a second. She seemed to try to say something. As if hoping I could read her lips.

I grabbed a note pad, and a pen.

Sorry, I don't know what you're saying. Tap the glass when you're done reading.

I pressed the note pad to the surface, and she tapped it after a few minutes.

She looked down for a split second, and I wondered what she was thinking.

When she looked up at me, I realized how pretty she was. Her blonde hair swayed in the water, even if it was short. She had pretty sky blue eyes. All together she was pretty cute. She did however, look fairly younger than I. It may just be the fact the water somewhat disordered her face, the way it rippled and waved.

Then I got an idea. Yes, or no questions!

Taking my pen I wrote again.

I'll ask you yes, or no questions.

Answer truthfully. Just shake your head for no. nod for yes.

First question:

Are you immortal? Like a supernatural being?

I pressed the note pad to the water again. After a few more minutes I heard the tap.

The girl shook her head.

…Rin Pov.

This was better than body language! Yes or No! Wonderful idea! Still, I don't think I could say my name by yes or no.

I heard a loud tap, rippling the water. I looked at the writing pad once again.

If you aren't immortal, do you have a strange power to keep people out of the water?

I tapped the glass, and shook my head. The note pad soon returned.

Then… is this something only you can pass through?

I tapped again, and shook my head.

Suddenly Len looked behind him. I wondered what he was staring at.

…Len Pov.

Some woman was walking through the forest, watching me.

She crouched down, without making eye contact, and dropped a note through the trees.

Giving me a small smiled, she ran away.

I looked at the girl in the pond once, and retrieved the note.

Running back, I found the girl trying to glance at where I was looking.

I sat down, and the girl seemed curious of what I held in my hand. I was, too.

I opened the strange note.

Hello, Boy Child.

I see you found my little Rin here.

You should just leave her now, she's no good trapped forever in a pond.

Curious? Of course you are! Foolish mortals are always so curious.

Well, come to the hut on the outskirts of the town. I will give you more details.

Secrets are meant to be told,

Sonika

Sonika? Seriously?

She's an old witch from a fable to get children to stop being so rebellious! What a prank!

Then again, she knows the lake. She knows… Rin I guess? Well her name might be a lie, but she knows enough. I'll go tomorrow.

Taking my notepad, and my pen. I started asking questions.

…
