Hello! I decided to start the ball on my new project. I ended up doing another Chie x Aoi, simply for the fact that there really isn't enough of them around. To be honest, they deserve a little more love than what they're getting. The two characters are amazing together and I really enjoy the freedom for their personalities because the two weren't completely developed in the actual series.

The inspiration for this story actually comes from a relationship I had (of course some of it's going to be exaggerated for fun story purposes, but you get the point). I decided to place this story after High School, mainly because I wanted to take the two in a more older perspective rather than my last fic that had them placed in the angsty teen perspective. I guess the whole moral will be that even after high school you're still stuck with trying to find yourself and you're still fighting through that journey of knowing who you are and who you love.

As always I hope my writing progressively gets better, please give this chapter a read and review it for me because I'm always open to advice. Sooo enough babbling and let's get the show on the road. I think I'm going to just post a short prologue to see how the concept of this story will work with the readers, and if I get positive comments for it, then I'll know this plot will be worth it.

This fic is rated PG-13 or Teen for sexual themes and probably a bit of language and sex humor thrown in.



Prologue

It was sudden, kind of like someone randomly jumped up and slapped me in the face. Maybe it didn't have the initial sting as if someone really did, but it was just as confusing and almost as...painful.

Her lips were pressed tightly against mine. She was determined to get her answer. My eyes were wide with shock. First, because a strange woman who I had said two sentences to, grabbed the sides of my head and pulled me into a hard kiss. Secondly, the real shock was that I really enjoyed it. I didn't want her to pull away.

So I complied. I allowed my lips to relax and mold against hers. I closed my eyes and focused on the heat between us or the pounding in my chest. I didn't want it to end, but of course I knew it had to.

She pulled away. Her cheeks were flushed, either out of embarrassment or excitement I wasn't too sure. Her eyes were locked into mine, and at that moment I felt like I knew this person my entire life. I didn't even know her name.

Her long brown hair shaped her face, contrasting the color of her skin and eyes. I looked through those eyes and into her soul.

"Why did that... feel so right?" She asked me. Her voice was a melody that whistled in my ears. It was the chorus of angels that weighed onto my heart.

I cupped her chin with my two fingers and pulled her face into mine again. This time it was assured. There was confidence in me as I pulled her against me.

She broke my kiss by pulling away and facing her head to the ground.

Now the good feelings dispersed, dragging my heart to the depths with them.

"I'm sorry," she whispered. I shook my head.

How in the world could anyone be sorry for something that beautiful?

She stood up and gave a deep bow.

"I'm sorry," she repeated. "I have to go."

I felt a rain drop hit my head. I tilted my head up towards the sky.

"What's your name?" I asked her quietly, probably almost inaudible.

She hesitated, probably because she was unsure. After all, I was a complete stranger to her, so I understood the pause before her answer.

"Aoi." I smiled as rain began to pour down onto me.

"My name is Chie; it's very nice to meet you," I said. I wondered if my smile looked as empty as I felt. I heard her take her leave.

I didn't move from that bench, even though the rain poured heavily onto my face.

My heart was complete and in the same four minutes, utterly destroyed. I would probably never see that girl again, and knowing that made my chest feel so incredibly heavy.

Of course I wanted to know why the hell she did that so abruptly, but I wanted to know even more who she was, and why she chose me.

I heard the cackling of thunder and I smirked.

"Damn foreshadowing," I chuckled.


Fuck. I just made out with an absolute stranger, and a GIRL no less. I was scrambling to get my keys for my car, but my hands were shaking so bad that I couldn't get the damn thing to get into the hole. I tried to replay what had happened in my head.

She was.. very cute. I kissed her. She kissed back. I'm pretty sure sparks flew.

It was the most bizarre sensation I think I've ever felt. I knew that it was so damn wrong yet it felt so God damn right. I don't think my heard could have punched against my chest any harder than it did. She must have felt the same way, because even after my kiss she pulled me in for round two. And I let her.

Fuck.

I banged my head against my steering wheel.

"Chie," I whispered. I liked her name, it felt so warm when it was released from my lips.

I'll probably never see you again, Chie.

But damn, I really hoped I would.


End Prologue

Yeaaah sorry it's just a tiny tease to see if it catches the interest. If the project continues I already have next chapter's outline thought up, and it'll give an explanation on what the hell happened.

Oh and for those who noticed, yeah I tinkered with Aoi's personality on this one. She's a little more extroverted than how I made her personality in my last fic. I figured that I wanted Chie to be the intellectual introvert, and make Aoi the fun twenty year old. We'll see how it goes.

Thanks for reading like always and give me some feedback.
