Kaori's Lie In April

Author Notes: Honestly guys i don't even know if i'd really call this a fanfic. It's more like a dream of mine written down into words. Every time I sat down to watch Shigatsu Wa Kimi No Uso i couldn't help but see myself in it. I would go to sleep and instantly dream of any episodes i saw but of course with the addition of me in it. I guess you could say this "Fic" is really my perspective. If you came here to read a Fic where you see our beloved characters doing things you haven't seen on screen yet well this one probably isn't for you considering it follows the events of the anime (To an extent)

Though there are many original scenes/chapters! But if you don't mind re-watching the anime in terms of text but with a new friend added to the group you just may enjoy it. You ever just have a really good dream and you wanted to share it with friends? Well this is one of those times. I've spent time with them, i ate with them, i laughed and cried with them and i just want to share my experience. Depending how all of this goes i plan on doing a second Shigatsu Wa Kimi No Uso story but it will be completely original. It'll probably involve our characters making it through high school. (Maybe Kaori will be there... ?) If you can sit down and read this with a clear and open mind i think you just might enjoy it.

I'd like to apologize in advance for my writing style though. I've read some fanfics on here and skimmed over some to get a peek of how people write on here and i noticed lots of first person styles. I've been role playing since i was 12 *cough* and the people I've met have always done it in the third person. So it's really the only way that i know how to write. Another thing though, if you're also expecting this to follow the events of the anime 100% you may also be disappointed... But that may not be such a bad thing if some things were to change right? If you're going to dislike it obviously you're going to dislike it. But again if you can sit down with a clear and open mind and notice every detail and aspect especially with "Ryoma" you're probably going to be glad that he was around. Personally (and not because i'm him and or i wrote this) but i think he fit perfectly into the story. It didn't look or feel choppy in my dreams. The characters actually interacted and liked each other.

You may just see how and why most of these events could have really happened the way that they did. Anyway please enjoy! Or don't either way thank you so much for at least clicking on my dream it means a lot.

Chapter 1: A new start?

February 1st

(Ryoma) -he sat in his plane seat looking out the window an emotionless expression on his face, blocking out all manner of sounds around him from the happy couples talking, to the children laughing even the sounds of a grumpy and hungry baby that was crying rather loudly- {... why is it that people lie? why do people do things with complete disregard for the thoughts and feelings of others? and worst of all... why?. . .why do people die?!} -his eyes became filled with tears as he closed them tightly clenching his fists and gritting his teeth- "Mom... Dad... you guys said that you'd only be gone a week, even though i cried and begged you not to go. you guys just really wanted to "recreate that spark" in your lives even if it meant leaving me alone all that time with the maid that saw us as nothing more than money. maybe, just maybe i would have forgiven you if you simply came back the next week. But, that week quickly became two, then three and it wasn't until a month later that the news had reached my ears... the cruise ship the two of you have set sail on was found, well what was left of it. As the maid was telling me about the accident i waited for the "luckily your parents survived and are coming here now" but as the conversation dragged on i just knew it in my heart i had lost the two of you.

One day before

(Maid) "No- no one survived i'm sorry"

(Ryoma) -his eyes widened for several moments before they shifted back to his usual emotionless gaze- "we'll be back in a week they said, just another lie. -The maid gasped in shock at his words-

(Maid) "i don't think they meant to die Ryoma... these things just sort of happen"

(Ryoma) -he turned his back to the maid as he began to walk away, he took several steps before turning his head to his right looking back at her- "so, what will become of me? i don't have any other family left in this world and i won't be able to pay you".

(Maid) "well, your parents Kasumi and Ryu left behind a will, it turns out that Kasumi's sister is still alive and well and-"

(Ryoma) -he turned around quickly to face the maid- "aunt Ayane? i was told long ago that she died of an illness! another lie?!" -he stomped his right foot-

(Maid) -she staggered back slightly as he stomped his foot- "it would seem that way. apparently your mother and Ayane weren't on good terms but in the will it says that if should anything have happened to your parents you are to be sent to live with her along with a small sum of money, because even though they did not see eye to eye ayane loved you".

(Ryoma) -he once again turned his back to the maid, his lips parted slowly as he prepared to speak- "When do i leave?"

(Maid) "Ayane has been notified, you leave for Tokyo tomorrow"

The plane arrived safely to it's destination as all the passengers grabbed their luggage and items before heading off of the plane, all except Ryoma who was too deep in thought to even notice the plane land. He's suddenly tapped on the shoulder by a flight attendant

(Woman) "hey, we've landed you may get off now" -she smiled politely-

(Ryoma) -he nodded his head and got up from his seat grabbing his luggage as he exited the plane. he made his way to the exit looking down at the floor as he continued to think before he heard his name being yelled in a happy yet excited tone "RYOMA!?"

(Ryoma) -he looked up as he saw her standing there, the aunt he hasn't seen in over 7 years.
