Gravity
Hey everyone! Welcome to Gravity. This is based on a true story that happened from 2009 to present time. I would like to dedicate this to the girl who went through this ordeal, even though she doesn't go on . Also, this fic will be completely Utau POV, so I won't be announcing any POV at the beginning of the chapters. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own Shugo Chara. But I guess you probably already knew that.
Chapter 1
Slam! My friend Rima was jerked awake by our teacher, Nikaidou-sensei, slamming a heavy textbook on her desk. She looked around, bemused.
"Having a nice nap, Mashiro-san?"
Rima flushed a light pink and mumbled an apology. She had been dozing off all day. It was surprising that Nikaidou-sensei hadn't noticed her sleeping yet, because she snored lightly. I would have woken her up, but whenever I had she'd just fall asleep again.
"Smooth, Reems." I whispered to her.
She glared at me playfully.
"Shut up Utau."
The bell buzzed noisily, signaling the end of the school day. I sighed in relief and gathered up my books. I ignored Nikaidou-sensei's instructions for the homework, I would just ask Kukai about that. The boy followed me like a puppy. I waited for Rima, who was muttering insults at Nikaidou-sensei under her breath.
"Watch the tongue, Rima. Someone might shove a bar of soap in there."
She glared at me and directed her potty mouth at me. I rolled my eyes and together we strolled towards the door. I strode ahead of her because her short legs were not as fast as mine. Suddenly, I heard the sharp slap of books hitting the floor. I turned around to see who had dropped their stuff. My eyes focused on Rima, curled into a ball on the floor with her books scattered around her. She was clutching her ear with a pained expression.
"Rima? What's wrong?"
She drew her hand away from her ear. Scarlet liquid was splattered across her palm.
"What the hell?" We whispered at the same time. Then she looked up at me with a confused expression on her small face.
"Why is it so quiet in here?" She asked.
It wasn't any quieter than it had been before she fell. Actually, it was louder, because people had crowded around us, muttering and staring.
"What are you idiots looking at?" I hissed at the crowd.
Some people scurried away, embarrassed. Others just murmered louder and gave me dirty looks.
"Let's get out of here," I grabbed Rima's hand (the one that wasn't covered in blood) and pulled her through the throng of spectators.
When we were out of the building, I stopped. What the hell was going on? I leaned over and spoke very clearly into the ear that hadn't bled.
"Tell your parents to take you directly to the hospital. Don't stop at home or anything. Understand?"
She nodded to show that she understood. I let go of her wrist and she ran to her mother's car. I saw her speak quickly to her mother and before the car sped off. I went back to collect her books and shoved them into my bag. She would want them when we saw each other next. I started to make my way home, my memory stained with images of her bloodstained hand. I closed my mind and ran the way to my house.
Dun dun dun! What's wrong with Rima? Why is she bleeding from her ear? What will go down at the hospital? I like to make up lots of questions. Sorry that it's so short, the following chapters will be longer. Review if you want to, don't be afraid of hurting my feelings. I wanna hear from you guys!
