"Baron, I have something I want to tell you."
The Baron did not turn around or make the slightest movement. He just looked out his window of The Cat Bureau.
"I- I love-"
The Baron slightly turned his head to Haru, just barley looking at her. His crimson eyes stared at her ever so slightly. Haru was paralyzed by the Baron's gentle stare. Right there, Haru's mind went blank.
Haru's eyes snapped open. It was a dream. Just a dream. Well, not just a dream, there had been many others like it. But this one was different; it seemed too real to be a dream.
"Haru! Come on, you don't want to late for school!" her mother called from downstairs.
Haru sighed and reluctantly dragged herself from her comfortable bed.
School hadn't been very productive. Haru had been hung up on her dream all day. Even when her teacher had called on her, she didn't seem to even acknowledge him.
"Haru!"
The sudden appearance of a voice snapped Haru from her thoughts and she looked up in the direction of the voice. She starred up at her friend, Hiromi, who was leaning over her shoulder.
"Hm?"
"You have been out of it all morning. You aren't still hung up on Machida, are you?"
"Absolutely not!" Haru exclaimed. She had forgotten all about Machida a long time ago. Now she was hung up on a different special someone.
"Then what's bothering you?" Hiromi asked, as she sat in the chair next to Haru. "I have known you a long enough time to know when something is bothering you."
Haru didn't speak, getting lost in her thoughts once again.
"It's a guy isn't it?"
Haru could feel her face color as a great big grin crept across Hiromi's face.
"I'm right aren't I? So who is it? Do I know him? Is he cute?"
"It's no one you would know," Haru said.
"Oh? Then at least tell me his name!" Hiromi demanded.
Haru shook her head. "I can't say."
"Come on Haru, it's not like I'm going to make fun of a name."
Haru refused to speak. For about the next hour, Hiromi had pestered Haru for the name but Haru wouldn't (even if her life depended on in). When it was time to leave school, Hiromi had finally given up (she knew she wasn't getting the name). As the girl went their separate ways home, Haru became lost in thought once again. It was only when a loud car beeped, causing her move out of the street, Haru realized where she was.
"The crossroads," Haru whispered. The same crossroads where she had met Muta. Then Muta had led her to the Cat Bureau and there was where she had met the cat she had been hung up on for the two years since their journey. Baron Humbert von Gikkingen.
Haru sighed in the remembrance of the last words Baron had ever said to her. Remember, whenever you have trouble, you know where to find us. Until then, farewell.
"Until then?" Haru whispered. Then Haru's dull eyes lit up. "Until the next time! That means I can see Baron again!"
Excited, Haru searched around for the familiar off white ball of fur, she had met the first time. This time, she was sure to tell the Baron how she really felt.
Thank goddess it done. This is my first attempt at an anime movie fanfiction so please judge but with positive cristism. I will have the next chapter up soon, I promise. As well as another chapter for "A Frozen Flower is Just as Pretty". Until then, farewell.
