Oh My Chibi Goddess!

"Bell, are you sure you want to do this? He's just a mortal." Skuld was tring to keep her big sister from doing a cake for Keiichi's birthday, this same afternoon.
"Skuld, for the last time, I was hoping you would finally accept him as part of our family. Even Urd cares for him now! Why don't you like him?" Belldandy said as mixing the mass of the cake.
"No... I just... no, nothing." Skuld jumped down the table she was sitting on. "I'm going to my room to think a little."
"Ok, but be here by 5 o' clock. Keiichi will be here and we're all going out to eat sushi." Skuld's face shined. "Yay! Sushi!" Belldandy only smiled.
A little more brightfull, Skuld went up the stairs. She had been thinking that maybe humans were not so bad. She had to stay in Earth for a couple of months more, and decided that she wanted to know how Earth schools were. She found them boring, but at the moment of chatting she was first in the line. Not nearly as pretty as her bigger sister, but they were several boys that wanted to go out with her. After class, she always cleaned her locker out of roses. And she listed them, like "Miyoki's, Asashi's, Asashi's, Nokei's, Takeru's, Nokei's, unknown, unknown, Miyoki's, Fujiko's." Then she sent them to the Heaven, in which they wouldn't die. All of them were red roses.
But one day in which Skuld was feeling very down, she found a white rose with a poem. Everyday that rose would appear, with a song or a poem tied to it. One day, finally, it said that they would meet at a park.

That day was particulary good. A nice boy named Kyo Tahashi, black haired, with black eyes and a mind that flew, had been the one sending the flowers, and he had been in love with her since the first time she had been in the school. That had been three months ago, and they had been going out for a while now. Skuld feared only one thing. She feared falling in love with him. Skuld was not very fond of humans, so she didn't wanted to fall for one.

Tears started to stain the bedsheets. Skuld didn't liked to cry, but she needed to. In part, she wanted to go to the Heaven again. But now she wanted to stay for a human. She was starting to understand why Bell always said that what she had with Keiichi was not just a contract. And added to this, Skuld was just a teenager, all hormonal and without someone to tell her the things she should or not. Goddess or not, this time was hard.

Bell called to the door. "Skuld, Keiichi is here! Time to sushi!" Normally, when she said this, Skuld jumped out of the door at her, but no one answered. "Skuld?" Silence. Bell was a little nervous. Even when sleep, the word "sushi" got Skuld out of Morfeus arms.
"Um, Keiichi, would you..."
"Yes, Bell, I know. Go talk with her." Bell smiled at Keiichi.
"Thanks." He grinned.
"Don't mention it." Bell went into the room. "Skuld?"
Skuld was curled up in a ball in her bed. "Skuld is dead. Long life to Skuld." Bell made a half-face smile. "Skuld..."
"What?"
"You don't want to eat sushi?"
"Yes."
"Then why didn't you came when I talked to you?"
"I don't know."
"What's with you, girl?"
"Nothing."
"You ussually talk to me about your problems. Is the problem at school?"
"Kind of." Skuld turned to see her sister's face.
"Aha!" Bell patted Skuld's arm. "Is the problem a boy?"
"Yes."
"What is his name?"
"Kyo Tahashi. He's very sweet, Bell. But I don't know If I should fall in love with a human. But..."
"I know, he's very sweet." Bell caressed Skuld's hair. "I think you're starting to change your opinion about humans, Skuld. They are a very strange kind, but some of they're worth the while."
"I should go out with Kyo this noon. He invited me. But I was doubtful... if I should tell him about... you know."
"Only if you think he won't tell it to everybody."
Skuld thought for a moment. "Go with Keiichi. I have other things to do." Then she grabbed her coat and ran out of the room. "Bye, Keiichi!" She said as she went pass him.
"Bye, Skuld." Keiichi answered.

Skuld ran far away of the house. The restaurant she had acorded to see Kyo in was not very far, but, then, it was very late for the date.
(NA. OW!! Skuld just hit me a good one! Ok, Ok, Skuld, it's not a date, it's an appointment. Skuld: Better that way. Izzy: Can't I afford to have some luxuries? Skuld: No! Izzy: sweatbead Ok, ok.)
It was very late for the APPOINTMENT. Skuld found Kyo, sitting in a bench in a nearby park.
"'Bout time."
Skuld smiled, out of breath. "I had something to do with my sister. Sorry, Kyo. You still want to eat?"
"No, thanks, Skuld. I lost my apetite."
"I hope that wasn't my fault."
"No, it wasn't."
They stayed in the park until it was very dark, talking about things. School, sisters, brothers, teology, stars and constelations, some jokes, food and countries figured in the conversation. They finished in the grass, looking at the stars.
"Kyo?"
"What?"
"Do you believe in God?"
"Yes, a little. I think it's nice to believe that someone is there, watching over me."
"And you believe in godesses as well?"
"I don't know. How will they be?"
"I dunno."
"You know?" Kyo turned to see her. "I think I'm in love with you."
That phrase struck Skuld like a bucket of frozen water. Struck her because she understood she had the same feelings towards Kyo.
"Kyo? I have to tell you something that you probably won't believe."
"From your mouth, I will believe everything."
"But..."
"Tell it to me, please."
"I..."
Suddenly, Skuld felt the extreme need to kiss Kyo. And she did, like it would be the last time.
"Wow." Kyo was amazed, for to his point, she was a wonderful kisser.
"Yeah, wow." Skuld had never been kissed, and now she felt a mixture of stomach butterflies, and a new feeling.
"What was that you were going to say, Skuld?"
"I'm a... a ... goddess."
Kyo just smiled. "I knew."
"I'm not surprised if you don't like the... What? You knew?"
"I used to have dreams about a beatiful girl. With those same marks you have in your face. I stopped having them the day you entered school, and I fell in love with you. But for some reason, a word didn't stopped to sound in my mind: goddess. And I think we're meant to be."
Skuld throwed herself to him and kissed him, for long time she had wanted this. About ten minutes before she had started loving a human. And she had stopped hating the human race forever.
Over them, the stars glowed in a dark blue sky. Sitting in a tree, Urd was eating some popcorn.
"Way to go, sister."


Finito.

Ok, this is the most corny story I have ever written, but I still hope you like it.
