This is the first chapter for my ficcie! Yay! Hope you like it. Got nothing else to say. So have fun reading! This title is still subject to change, cause I don't like it a lot. Cause Kotori's name means 'little bird', and the rest I'll tell you all later, or else it'll give the story away.
A servant walked up to the shouji, and bowed. Right behind the door, you could just make out the shape of a young child, around the age of five.
"Akito-sama. She's here."
A voice spoke, "Fine, bring her in."
The servant rose, bowing again, and walked to get the girl.
Akito watched quietly, as the shouji slid open, and the silent figure of a girl was ushered in. She seemed to be around his age. She had soft-looking shoulder length black hair, and a pair of pale blue eyes. She was watching him intently, and those eyes of hers were staring at his own.
That hair is probably from her mother, those eyes are from the father, whoever he is
"Akito-sama, this is Kotori de Leon."
Akito glared at the insignificant servant. "Fine, you can go."
"Very well, Akito-sama."
The servant rose, bowed again and left, closing the shouji after him.
Akito walked slowly around the girl, "So, you're the daughter of Maemi Souma, and..."
"Fredrick De Leon, my father is Frederick De Leon."
Akito smirked, "That's where you got those eyes."
The girl turned to look at him with her light blue eyes, "You're Souma Akito, and I think I'm supposed to be your companion."
Akito smirked yet again, "What were those adults thinking? A little girl like you being my companion? Shouldn't they have picked someone smarter and with better experience?"
She looked up at him from her kneeling position on the floor, "You know, your attitude sure doesn't suit your age, Akito-sama."
Akito stopped pacing, and glared at her. She glared right back. They stayed like that for a while. Pale blue eyes, meeting dark depths. However, they were interrupted by a servant outside of the shouji.
"Akito-sama, dinner is ready."
"I'm coming. Come on, companion, time for something to eat."
At dinner, Akito and Kotori's glaring match still wasn't over, and they continued to glare at each other over their dinners.
After dinner, they continued to have their staring match, while they were getting ready for bed, they glared at each other. One of the servants noticed.
"Umm...Akito-sama, Kotori-san, what are you two doing?"
No answer.
"Akito-sama. Kotori-san!"
Both of them turned to the poor guy, and simultaneously shouted, "Stupid! You're going to make me lose! What?! Hey, why are you copying me? Me?! I'm not copying you! What?! Grr..."
The servant looked from Akito to Kotori, and quietly decided to leave.
It was morning, birds twittered outside in the beautiful garden. The sun reflected off the tiny drops of dew on the leaves. The servant opened the shouji to Akito's room, and found Akito and Kotori asleep. Kotori had her head rested on Akito's shoulder, and Akito had his head rested ontop of her head. It seems that they had fallen asleep during their staring matches.
Yay! First chapter! Hope you like it so far. Even though I think I should finish Two Halves into A Whole first but...*shrug*. I'm not good at writing multi-chapters.
