Chapter One: Amnesia Hurts


June 18th

You open your eyes and hear your alarm clock yelling its ass off. It's 7:30 and schools starts at 8:20. Should be enough to get ready and not arrive late.

You get out of bed and take out your Kaijou uniform. The school is mostly famous for its basketball team and Kise Ryouta. The model is actually one of your remember the day he spoke to you. He started blabbering about all his different hobbies, it was hard not to get up and leave or tell him to shut up. On top of that the Sluts-for-Kise (his fan group) always follow him around whenever they get the chance. So not only do you have to deal with a blonde idiot ranting about his hobbies (which is probably equal to the number of girlfriends he's had), but you also have to suffer through the screaming and yelling conjured by his fan girls. You ended up telling the Sluts-for-Kise to go fuck them selves (like they do every night) and leave you guys alone. Just like badass! You can say that's where things started off between the two of you.

You started talking more and more and then BAM! Just like that you were with...Kimoto Ryohei (Even though he never asked me out). Ryohei is truly amazing. He's average looking but he's smart. He's also a basketball god tied to Kagami (but then again you don't really know much about basketball so…). However every time you try to recall how you met you find that you're unable to. One day it was just Kise and you in your own little world (trying not to embarrass yourself). It was almost like you were lovers and then it was just Ryohei. He is a gorgeous creature like no other on this planet. Ok he's not that beautiful. It was around that time that Kise became…well "off". That aside today Ryohei and you are going on a date after school. I guess this is the part where he's my boyfriend right? When you're all ready to go and you take out your phone to text Ryohei. On the screen you see that Ryohei has already sent you something. You press your finger on the text preview and hold it there until it opens. It says:

Dear Sugar,

I wish you a wonderful morning. I can't wait to see your (eye color) honey eyes and smell your (favorite scent) scent as I hold you tight against my beating heart. I'll lover you for an eternity. I'll love you until you break and even then I won't stop loving you for you are the sole reason of my existence. (Sorry if I sound dramatic my lady.)

"Sheesh, can you ever not be a drama queen?" You ask myself unimpressed by his words "from the heart". Ding-dong.

"Huh? Who is it?" You walk to the door and peek through the door hole. There standing in all his glory was your friend Kise. Wait, why is he here? The only person who ever showed up at your door in the morning was Ryohei. You open the door and welcome him.

"Domo* _! Today's our last day of exams are you ready?"

"I take it you are too huh Kise?" You make your way to the train station. Kise and you reach the train station in laughter because of his model fail stories. Today is the usual Kise. You swipe your cards and wait for the train to arrive. Kise looks at the beach poster ad and his eyes lighten up.

"What's wrong Kise? Have you been there before?" He snaps out of his gaze and looks at you.

"Ah yes… I have been there before. It was a great experience." Kise slowly starts to drift back to his time at the beach and you can see the dreamy yet loving look settle down on his face. "I'd never felt so much joy and happiness in my life before." His radiant smile gives off positive wave of energy. You love the look on Kise's face. His golden silk hair shown in the sunlight, bewitching you.

"Wow. I can tell by that smile that you really enjoyed yourself. Who exactly was this special person?" You ask in a teasing manner. You can see him stiffen up and he looks at the poster with sad puppy eyes.

"She…she was someone I can never forget. She made my heart pound like no other girl I could have ever fantasized about. She was perfect— No more than perfect. She was everything that was too pure, to good to exist on this planet. She was mine, and I was hers. We were one perfect copy of paradise." He looks on remembering everything like it was yesterday.

"Er...Kise what happened to her?" You are a little too curious for your own good. Kise has never told you about this girl and you have never seen her either. On top of that she seems to be quiet recent. Kise looks at you, eyes full of pity and sorrow. This isn't normal. Kise never gets this upset.

"She was taken from me without even her even knowing. Everyday I wait for the day the stars will align themselves and will vanquish the akuma* that dared separate us. On that day everything will be clear. She who left me will finally come back on her own." He smiled a tearful smile. One that breaks you inside. He quickly recovered as he enters the train. You trail behind looking at the beach poster in utter bewilderment. It's the same as that time. You remember the argument Kise and Ryohei had over who was best fit to walk you to school. Ryohei had won since he was your "boyfriend" but you could tell Kise wasn't going to let it slide. Following the argument Kise had said:

"A year from that day she'll know and won't forgive you. A year from then she'll get everything back. This nightmare will finally be over… and so will you." Then he had left.

That was the first time Kise became weird It's almost as if he'd been possessed. What exactly had happened to Kise?
