Hey everyone :D This is like a fanfic I've been thinking long and hard about, so please review. I don't own Shugo Chara and please enjoy :3
It has been 5 years since my parents passed away, and I am stuck in an orphanage. Many of the other children, or orphans, have already been adopted. They seemed so happy to be gone from this place. I don't understand why. I would rather live here, than to live with some strangers. What is this "trust" people talk about? There is no one to trust in this world.
"WAKE UP CHILDREN!" the big lady who takes care of us said. I tried to ignore her, but Rima kept poking me until I woke up. "What do you want Rima?" I said sleepily. "Amu-chan, you have to wake up before we get in trouble." She said sounding kind of scared. "Fine." I said and got up. I know I said there's no one to trust in this world, but Rima is different. She actually understands me; she was left here the same day as me. Ever since then, we promised not to leave each other, or trust anyone else. I got ready and went to eat breakfast. Rima and I got our food and went to the table we always sit at. It was a table for only 2 people, and it was away from others. Rima and I would go everywhere together (except the bathroom). "Alright it's time to play outside!" the big lady said.
"Come on Rima-chan!" I said and grabbed Rima's hand. We both walked out together, after everyone else of course. We went to the lonely swing. Rima and I took turns pushing each other on the swing. This is how we usually spent our day, together and away from everyone else. Of course, pushing me on the swing was harder for Rima because she's so small, even though she is 9 years old, just like me. I wonder how my family was. Were they nice? Mean? Funny? Boring? I wondered. "Amu-chan." Rima said interrupting my thoughts.
"Yes?" I asked.
"It's your turn on the swing." She said. Oh yeah I totally forgot that I was pushing Rima. I nodded and helped Rima off of the swing. I got on, and pushed myself a little so it wouldn't be so hard for Rima. After a while, it was time for us to go inside. "CHILDREN COME INSIDE!" the large lady yelled once again. Rima and I took each other's hands and walked into the building. We ate lunch where we usually sat. Then, dinner came, next it was time to sleep. "Time to sleep!" the large woman said. Rima and I had our own room, which we shared. We went into our room and got ready for bed.
I lay there trying to fall asleep, I started drifting off until I heard someone, "Amu-chan." They said. I opened my eyes to see Rima standing right in front of me.
"What Rima-chan?" I asked half-asleep.
"I-I had a nightmare." She said.
I sighed, "Do you want to sleep with me?"
"Y-yes please." She said and I moved over so there would be enough room for us. "A-Amu-chan?"
"Yes?"
"You're never going to leave me right?"
"Of course not." I sat up and looked at Rima. "If someone ever wants to adopt me, I will tell them to adopt you too."
"R-Really?"
"Yeah." Rima hugged me.
"Thank you Amu-chan."
"You're welcome, now let's go to sleep." I laid back down and fell sleep. I started dreaming about someday being adopted, but not taking Rima with me. She was crying, sad, and hurt. "I thought you said you would never leave me Amu-chan!"
"Rima-chan wait!" I said trying to get her. At that part, my dream (or should I say nightmare) ended. I woke up almost instantly. I looked to my right, which was where Rima was sleeping, and she was sound asleep. I smiled, but I couldn't go back to sleep.
It was nine o'clock in the morning and the large lady came in. "Wake up children and get dressed! We have new arrivals today!" she said and left. I woke Rima up and we got dressed, then we went downstairs and lined up along with about 40 other kids. "Everyone is here correct?" she asked and glared at us.
"Yes ma'am." We said and stood up straight.
"I want you children to set a good impression, so the new children won't be scared."
"Yes ma'am." We said again.
"Good, now when the new arrivals come, you will all introduce yourselves one by one."
"Yes ma'am." We said once again.
"Amu-chan I'm scared." Rima whispered to me.
"Don't worry, it'll be alright." I whispered back and gave her a reassuring smile. We stood there as if we were in an army or something. We stood up straight and tall. We couldn't move around or talk with our 'friends' or anything like that.
The new arrivals finally came. They looked like they were older than us. One of them, had lavender eyes and long blonde hair that was tied up into two ponytails. She seemed as if she was about 2 years older than us. Another one had long indigo hair, and brown eyes. He seemed about the same age as us, and he also looked kind of like a girl. There was another one with short brown hair, and has green eyes. He looked like he was about 1 year older than us. The last was the tallest out of the four of them. He had blue hair, and blue eyes. He seemed about 2 or 3 years older than us.
All the other children introduced themselves, to the new arrivals. Now it was mine and Rima's turn.
"Hi I'm Mashiro Rima." Rima said and tried not to make eye contact with any of them.
"I'm Hinamori Amu." I said, without a care.
"Hi I'm Hoshina Utau." The girl with blonde hair said.
"Hello I'm Fujisaki Nagihiko It's nice to meet you." The boy with indigo hair said and smiled.
"Hey! I'm Souma Kukai!" the one with brown hair said.
"Tsukiyomi Ikuto." The boy with blue hair said.
"Ok time to go eat breakfast!" the large lady said. I took Rima's hand and quickly went to the kitchen. We both got our food and went to the table we always sat at. Rima and I were just sitting there minding our own business and then Utau, Kukai, and Nagihiko came up to us.
Thanks for reading :DD Hope you liked it! I will still try to update as soon as I can.
