Chapter One: Losing You

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Himeno was floating through the air, her hands clinging to Takako's, while a large grin spread on both of their faces. Himeno had just saved the world and the man she loved, along with reviving Sasame. She had also saved Takako, and Himeno couldn't have been happier. She let go of Takako's hands, giving her a soft smile it was safe to let go. Himeno's eyes rolled back as she gently floated to a bed of flowers. She slowly lost conscienceness, a smile still on her face. She could rest assured, everyone she loved would definitely stay safe.

She heard some cries. She wanted to tell everyone not to cry, everything was alright now. She wanted to. But she couldn't drag herself back again. She gave herself for them. Then she felt something warm coming towards her. Someone. She could see them... Her eyes were closed, but she could see Hayate, hovering above her. Was he crying? Yes. He was crying. She could see his tears... She could hear him. His mouth wasn't moving, but she could hear him crying out. Hayate's face approached hers.

Himeno opened her eyes to a blinding light. Where was she? WHO was she? Himeno looked around the room.

"I'm in a hospital." She said as she came to realization. Most of her memories flooded back. All of them... All of them until the day when she was walking to school, and saw red snow... It stops there.

"Amnesia?" Himeno grabbed her throbbing head. She had injuries all over her body, too. Various cuts, scrapes, and bruises.

"Miss Awayuki! You're awake!" A short nurse said in a squeaky voice.

"We... We tried to get him to leave, but he stayed here, for all three days that you were knocked out." The nurse looked over with a blush on her face, at a man sitting in a seat, his head against the wall. He was... sleeping.

"Who... is he?" Himeno twitched a little as she asked the nurse. The man's appearance made her feel strange... He made her feel sad. He made her long for something.

"Ah... I'm not sure. Your father let him stay here, though, so..." The nurse said as she stared at the man. The very handsome man, with long, blue-tinted hair. His incredibly long right leg was stretched out in front of him, the other tucked under the chair. His arms were folded in, resting on his lap. He looked tired.

"Can you please... Get him out? He makes me feel strange." Himeno grinned weakly and nervously at the nurse.

"Yes, Miss Awayuki." The nurse bowed her head slightly before making her way towards the handsome man.

"Excuse me, sir..." The nurse said as she blushed nervously. The man stirred awake, opening his drousy eyes. The nurse shreiked in excitement, you could almost see hearts in her eyes. His eyes darted towards Himeno, then widened.

"Himeno!" He yelled as he scattered to make his way towards her. He grabbed her hand. His hands were rough and large... They felt so familiar, and they made her heart throb.

"Pl-Please let go of me..." Himeno closed her eyes and tried to tug away from his hand.

"I'm so glad you're alive!" He said in a slightly hoarse voice. He attempted to hug Himeno, but stopped when she shreiked.

"Sir! Please, exit the room..." The small nurse panicked, trying to get everything under control.

"Hime...no? It's me! Hayate!" He said desperately. His eyes were panicking. He looked like someone had just now died.

"Please, Mr. Hayate!" The nurse said much louder than before. Hayate slowly stepped away, looking at Himeno sadly right before he left the room.

"Miss Awayuki, we've contacted your family... They should be here any minute." The nurse said in a still frantic voice. Himeno nodded, the rolled over.

"...Hayate?" She whispered to herself. His name rolled pleasingly off her tongue. The nurse bowed her head again, and began to leave the room.

"Excuse me!" Himeno sat up, and the short, squeaky nurse turned around to face Himeno, with a smile now on her face.

"Yes, ma'am?" She walked back to Himeno's bedside.

"Do I have... Amnesia?" Himeno asked the nurse with a gulp, already knowing the answer.

"Ah... Yes, Miss Awayuki." The nurse's face became much more nervous looking. Himeno felt scared. What all had she forgotten?

"...Thank you. And... could I please get some food in here?" Himeno's face became much more serious. Her stomach was empty. She needed at LEAST ten servings...

"Yes... Yes, Miss Awayuki." The nurse grinned, before leaving the room. Himeno lied there, trying to remember. Trying so hard... Was Hayate a friend? He acted like it, but this feeling he made Himeno feel... Was so different.

Could Himeno actually...

Hate this man?

Okay! That's the end of this chapter. HOW SUSPENSFULNESSNESS!

It will be a pretty short story. Probably only about five chapters long. The next chapters will probably be longer, though.

Anyways, look forward to me updating! I'll probably update weekly, unless my internet goes down or I get writer's block.
