A/N:
Well, here's my first Cathy/Yuma story. I do love Kotori/Yuma, don't get me wrong, but I have loved the chemistry between them lately. They're really making quite a good love triangle lately. So without futher ado, on with the story!


~Cathy/Yuma: Gomenasai~

She was fed up of this four year one-sided love.

Cathy stood on the edge of the house, her silver (many people called it gray) hair flowing in the breeze. Her green, pale eyes glistened with the sadness of an unattainable and unreachable love. The night was young, many people were chatting away with the content happiness of their lives. They were unaware of the cat girl standing on the house.

Everyone had always ignored her.

But then she had met Yuma. She adored his confident antics, she longed to be a part of his life. And eventually, she did. He allowed her to make more friends than she had lives (she believed herself to be part cat) and to that she was truly grateful. Kotori was the only other female she was particularly close with, and even that had a strained relationship as well.

Because she loved Yuma to. She got him first.

Her friends were now acting distant as they began to realize their dreams in the world. And she was loosing the only family she had ever known, ever had. She didn't want to loose them. But she had all ready, they were slipping from her clutching claws. Her green irises longed for someone to hold her like Yuma held Kotori. She even wished Kotori gone, but had always felt bad about it afterwards.

She began to write a note.

She then climbed into Yuma's bedroom, and admired his collection of treasury and antiquity. And she chuckled mentally- there was even a golden-egyptian cat statue on the chest of drawers as well. He had a lot of taste, or maybe it was his parents that had gathered all of these artifacts. She was always on the last end to know things, so she didn't know.

She placed the note on the bedside, and quietly slipped out, into the night. But not before whispering a few things to the Spirit-like form that she knew resided by Yuma's side always.

"Astral, tell Yuma, gomenasai from me, neh?" She smiled, and as quick as an ally cat, she was gone.

When Yuma woke up in the morning, the first thing he saw was Astral with a content, maybe even confused look on his face. And Yuma soon found out why- the note was in Astral's hand.

'Yuma,

Gomenasai. Good luck, to Kotori, you and everyone else for the future. Which I will not be joining you for.

Cat-chan.'

With an almost pitiful look, Yuma placed the note onto the drawer by his hammock near what Cathy was admiring that very same night , glanced at the cat statue and walked out of the door.


A/N: If anyone didn't know, Cathy ran away. This is kind of AU, but it could happen in the series.
