Chapter 1: Life as a Young Adult
Kira was an odd girl since she was young. Long black hair and piercing blue eyes and a pretty average body the, 'just right' kind of body. You'd think her senior year of high school and at the age of eighteen you'd think she'd live a full life so far.
Nope.
Kira has no car, job or top of the class smarts. She was just below the average point. Her parents decided to divorce since one of them couldn't stay away from the same sex. Oh well, Kira thought it was normal and repressed any feelings about the manner.
So far it had a horrible toll; it started on a fine day on May.
Kira was sitting on the ground by her locker waiting for the bell to sound another day of hell. "I start with quantum physics." She sighed out, she was the best at sciences but lately she's been struggling balancing her life out.
Everyday by her locker she quietly announces to herself what she has to do,
Kira
"Okay first I have Physics, free time I have to work on my report on The Phantomhive family, Music theory, British Literature after that Trig, Theater I have to replace the burnt out lights on the ceiling and last but not least Band."
"Hey Kira" I looked up to find my good friend Ashley standing in front of me. I was always jealous of her. Long, flowing red hair, green eyes and a slender body. "Did you eat breakfast today?"
I could tell her the truth, but then she would worry over nothing. I decided to lie, "Yes I did; I'm just going through my plans for the day." I tried my best to smile. Her eyes were deeply concerned with something. "Are you okay? Your eyes have some pretty nasty shadows going on."
I brought my hands up to rub them, 'That's right; I stood up to cram for my Trig test.'
"Yeah I'm fine! Just did a little studying for a test today." She frowned feeling some of the truth behind my words, "Okay, but maybe you should take a nap in your ac lab today?"
I shrugged at her, "If I have nothing to do sure!" She helped me up with her hands and she dusted me off. "Maybe you should go home Kira, your even in your pajamas." I could feel a blush coming to my face.
"My aunt has work though and I can't risk her getting fired." Ashley just gaped at what I just said and pulled me in for a hug and the bell rang. I groaned out before telling her, "The death bell tolls for thee."
She giggled a little before letting me go and running down the hall to her class. I walked to my Physics class and gladly we had a sub for the day. I told the sub I had to work on a project so he allowed me to finish and print out my project on the Phantomhive's.
Ac lab came and I was going to use the time to practice my clarinet. I saw it on the high shelf with a note on the rack that said,
Dear Kira,
You suck! Just quit now while you still have a chance!
Loser!
Signed John
Sigh. John hated me since I became second chair and he's been trying to get me to quit ever since. I got the step stool and reached up for my clarinet. That's when dizziness hit me. 'No not now, not in school.' I begged my body to let me continue but it didn't work. My sight and hearing left me as everything went black.
I could hear the giggles and worried murmurs from all around me. I opened my eyes and the nurse was there helping me into a wheel chair. She leaned down to look at me and she handed me a bottle of water. "Sip this dear." I opened it and took small little sip and I hid my face below my hair as the nurse wheeled me to the resting room.
She helped me to the bed and gave me some ramen noodles. "Your blood sugar is awfully low. You need to make sure you eat." I blushed looking at the side to see how many calories there were in a cup.
I sighed finding the side scraped off. I shrugged and slowly ate the noodles in the presence of the nurse. Once I finished she took the cup and laid me down to rest. I drifted into a nice slumber.
Sometime Later
"Wake up!" I opened my eyes and I froze on the spot. My aunt was in front of me, arms crossed, foot tapping and obviously NOT happy. "What the hell is going on with the nurse telling me to come pick you up?"
"W-What?
No I never said that! She gave me something to drink and eat and then laid me down to rest!" She was so in a bad mood right now. "Do you realize I could've been fired? You can obviously still continue your day!"
I shut my mouth. I'm not about to fight with her about something I didn't do. "Well?" I looked up at her confused, "What?" She huffed grinding her teeth at me, "You know don't even bother coming home tonight! I'm so angry I could strangle you right now!"
She turned before I could say anything and left. I stopped I was in complete shock. Everything around me stopped and I got up and made my way up to the roof of the school and sat there enjoying the sun while proof reading my paper.
I read the section of the Butler, Sebastian Michealis. A handsome man, he looks like he could be my brother. He was kind to everyone and a hard working butler. Loved cats and was loyal to his master Ciel. I laughed hysterically, "A kind person? Yeah right!" I felt so empty so I tore up my paper and let it fly with the wind.
I looked down the four floors of the building a nice little garden was at the bottom of the building. "Maybe I should jump?" The flowers started to glow. It was a beautiful mixture of reds, blues, greens, and yellows.
I looked behind me to make sure no one was there to care about me. There wasn't. Not a soul to even watch. I took a step on to the ledge, held my breath and jumped. As I rocketed towards the ground The flowers released the lights and they flew into me carrying me higher and higher into the sky.
The lights soon dispersed and I fell and fell and fell until…
"Sebastian!" I heard someone call out and soon I was being held in someone's arms. I slowly opened and saw….
"Sebastian? Sebastian Michealis?"
