So this is part two! Whoot! I've got five parts all together, but my cousin deleted part 4! T ^T So I have to re-type it. Until then, enjoy the first three parts. ^^
' Kota, the prince of the demon world, here? And for Moi. What am I supposed to do?' I stood frozen as I stared at the demon prince standing in front of me.
" Kimmie?"' Moi? No! Don't come down here!' I couldn't find my voice to tell him to stay away.' But, he's been looking for this person for some time now. It'd be selfish if I don't let him go.' I heard him come down the stairs." What are you doing? I heard you come down here, but…" He stopped and looked at the person that was in front of me. His face seemed to beam.
" Kota!" He flew into Kota's arms." I thought I'd never see you again!"
" Same here. But I heard that a demon came here to try and find you. He said that you made a contract with a human girl." He nodded towards me." I'll take it you're Kimmie." I slowly nodded.
" I am a demon, but since you helped Moi here, I give you my thanks." He bowed." But, we need to go. Moi," he lifted Moi up." You need to break the contract that you made with this girl."
" I have a name you know." He looked at me.
" My apologizes. You need to break the contract that you made with Miss. Kimmie." Moi looked at me, then back at Kota.
" Well, what are you waiting for?"
" Just do it Moi. He's obviously a very busy demon."
" Okay." Moi moved closer and placed one of his paws on my head, like he did the first time, but I kept my eyes open this time." Contract. Break." I started to get light headed, and the room started to spin.
" Wha?…" I started to sway on my feet.
" Now, you'll have no memory of seeing Moi, or anything to do with him or demons. You'll just go back to normal old Kimmie."' Forget… Moi?' I tried to stay conscious, but that didn't work. I woke up to Kai shaking me like mad.
" Kimmie?! Wake up! Are you okay?!" I slowly opened my eyes and sat up.
" Yea… I'm fine." He sighed and sat back." What… Happened?"
" I don't know. I come down here to get ready for school, and I find you laying face flat on the ground."
" I must've been sleep walking, because I don't recall a thing."
" Maybe you should stay home today."
" Nah. I'll be fine. I was just sleep walking."
" Okay. But you should hurry up and get ready."
"'Kay." I went back upstairs to my room. I opened my dresser and got my clothes for the day. I stood up and looked at the top of my dresser.' Why does it feel like there was something there? Was there something that was important on there?' I shook my head.' I'm probably imagining things.' I went and took a shower and quickly headed out the door.
" Bye Kai! I'm leaving!" Kai waved back. I ran all the way to school. I ended up being right on time. Rai was waiting at the usual place waiting for me. I waved to her. She waved back.
" Hey Rai. Sorry I'm a little late."
" It's no problem. We should hurry and get to class." I nodded. We made it to class with time to spare. Rai walked over to talk to May, leaving me by myself.' May? Oh, yea. Rai's going over to her house Friday.' I sat down and looked out the window. A boy came in and stopped at my desk.
" Kimmie?" I looked up at the boy.
" Yes? May I help you?"
" Are you feeling okay?"
" Yea. Why?"
" You weren't here yesterday. I was just wondering."
" How did you know about that?"
" I'm in your class."
" Really? Well, it's nice to meet you, um, what's your name?" The boy looked at me like I was crazy.
" You forgot my name?"
" I knew it?" I tilted my head confused.
" Do you have a concussion or something?"
" No, I'm fine. Are you sure you're okay?" He was about to say something else when the teacher came in.
" Take your seats everyone." It soon was quite in the room. Mr. Yamaka then started the lesson for the day. I wasn't able to focus, but when do I? I looked back out the window.' What is it that's bothering me? It has something to do with my dresser. There's something important that I forgot. But I need to remember.' I heard Mr. Yamaka clear his throat, so I looked at him. He was staring at me. I was about to apologize for spacing in class, when he started talking.
" Yes, Mr. Tamika? What is it?" I looked behind me, like the rest of the class. The boy was standing up.' What is he doing?'
" Mr. Yamaka. If you would please excuse me." He looked at me." And Kimmie, for just a moment."
" What?" I looked at him like he was the crazy one. He walked towards me and grabbed my arm.
" Let's go."
" Hey! What are you doing?"
" Just come on."
" Mr. Tamika. Where are you going?" Mr. Yamaka laid down his book and stared at Yuki.
" Just outside for a minute to talk to Kimmie. It's very important."
" You'd better hurry."
" I will, thanks." He continued to drag me by my arm.
" Will you please explain why I'm being dragged out of class." He stopped and turned around to face me.
" What's my name?"
" Huh?"
" What's my name?"
" I don't know."
" Yes you do. Now tell me my name."
" Why do I need to tell you your own name?"
" Just tell me."
" I only know that your last name is Tamika. And that's because the teacher said it."
" Then what's my first name?"
" I don't know!"
" Yes you do! Don't you remember the first day we met? When I first came here from Hong Kong? You thought I was a weirdo because I was glaring at you."
" I'm thinking that you're a pretty weird person right now."
" Not now, then. I took you to the park, and I wanted you to give up something that wasn't yours." I scratched my head.
" I… I don't remember that. When was this?"
" Are you serious? You forgot that?… What about a few days ago? When we were attacked by some type of 'monster'? I didn't get a good look at whatever it was, but I know you did."
" You're not making any sense." I turned away." I'm going back to class."' What is it with this guy?' I felt him grab my arm again and try to turn me back around, but I didn't let him. I jerked away and started walking away.
" Kimmie! Are you telling me that you forgot all about Moi?!"' Moi? Why does that name sound familiar?' I stopped.' Moi, familiar. Those two things, what is it?' I turned back around to Tamika.
" Tell me what you know about this 'Moi'."
" You forgot about him?"
" I'm not sure. His name sounds familiar."' There it is again.'
" Then when I say familiar, it's like the two words should go together."
" So your mind is trying to make you remember. It's obvious that someone erased your memory."
" Erased my memory?" He nodded.' This guy's crazy.'" Well, I should get back to class."
" No," he started to walk towards me." Not until you tell me my first name."
" I told you, I don't remember."
" Try to. Think back when I first came here. When I took you to the park to take something that didn't belong to you, and when we were attacked in the park. Just try."
" I guess I can try."' What am I supposed to try and remember though? I can't remember his name, or any of those events.'
" Try to think of Moi."
" Moi? Moi?…" I repeated his name a few times over.' Come on! It's on the tip of my tongue! Moi? Who are you?! Why can't I remember you? Are you that something that's important that was on my dresser?' I nodded to myself.' Yea, I think that's what's it is. Moi? What are you? That's it! Moi isn't a person! He's a… He's a.. What? What is he? Is he an animal? Something like that, but not an animal. He… He looks like one though.' A picture of a stuffed animal came into my mind.' He was a stuffed animal?' Then another, but of the stuffed animal talking.' A talking stuffed animal? Moi was a talking stuffed animal? I thought this kid was weird. This kid? I know his last name, Tamika, but his first… I can't remember.'
" Are you okay? You look kinda' of pale."
" I'm fine. I can only remember that this Moi person is like a stuffed animal that can talk."
" Well, he's not a stuffed animal."
" Really? He sure looks like one."
" Try to remember more. Did you remember my first name yet?" I shook my head.
" No, not yet."
" Then try again." I nodded.' Okay. Moi looks like a talking stuffed animal, but he isn't. Then what is he?' I scratched my head again.' Come on. Remember! Why can't I remember?! I know that I need to remember, but I can't! Okay, calm down. Think. Moi. He's not a stuffed animal. Moi, familiar. Is Moi familiar with something? Moi sounds so familiar. Familiar, Moi. Is he… Is he familiar? No, that doesn't even make sense.' I sighed.
" I can't remember anything else. And it's going to frustrate me."
" Maybe you should try again later… But, did you remember my first name?"
" No. Your name just doesn't want to come up."
" It will. You just need to try harder is all."
" I doubt I'll remember anything else. I don't even think this is real."
" It is."
" You have no proof."
" And yet I do."
" Then prove it to me."
" You have to remember on your own."
" Then this'll never end. I probably won't even remember anything else."
" Try then."
" I don't wanna."
" Just try. Focus on my name this time. I'm sure if you figure out my name everything else will come to you easier."
" Why?"
" I can't tell you." I glared at him." See? That's exactly what you did the first day we met."
" What? Glare at you?" He nodded." I glare at a lot of people. I don't think that will help."' He's insane.' I rolled my eyes.
" Try again. Just focus on my name. I won't let you leave until you do."
" Why is your name so special?! You're not the all-mighty king!"
" Calm down Kimmie. I didn't mean it like that."
" Sure you didn't. You're such a weirdo." I crossed my arms and turned away from him.
" If you just try hard enough, I'm sure you'll remember."
" Yea right."' I think I'd rather not remember if it had to deal with you.' I heard his footsteps walking around me." What are you doing?"
" I'm re-enacting the first day we met. Now look at the wall at the end of the hall."
" Whatever. This isn't going to work."
" It's worth a try." He walked over to one of the guys bathrooms and walked in.' I met him when he was coming out of the bathroom?' He walked in. He voiced Mr. Yamaka.
" Class, we have a new student. His name is," he blanked out his first name," Tamika. You can sit next to…" He looked like he was actually scanning the hall like it was the room." Kimberly. There's an open seat behind her." Then he walked by me, stared at me.
" Um…"' Why is he looking at me like that?' Then he walked behind me.' That was odd. Is that really how we first met?' He walked back in front of me.
" Did it work?" I shook my head.
" No. You just kinda' freaked me out a little."
" Really? I creped you out? You said the same thing, and had the same face expression as the first time."
" I did?" He nodded.
" But, were you trying to remember me?"
" I was a little busy watching your little creep show."
" Well, now that you know how we met. Maybe you can try and remember what Mr. Yamaka said."
" What did he say?"
" My first name. I blanked it out so you could try and remember it."
" Maybe if I sleep on it I'll get it."
" You should really try and remember today."
" I already tried, but it didn't work."
" Maybe I should just tell you. Maybe then your memories will come back."
" Please do."
" Well, I guess I'll start off with my name. My first name is…" He was about to say it when there was a loud crash.
" That came from the classroom!" I ran back to find everyone on the ground. All except Rai." Rai?! Rai?! Where are you?!" I ran around the room, careful not to step on anyone. I looked out the window to find her laying on the ground." Rai!" I looked at how the jump was.' It doesn't look that far. Plus, there are bushes I can land on.' I got my legs out when Tamika tried to pull me back in.
" What are you doing?! Are you trying to kill yourself?!"
" Rai is down there! She's probably hurt! I can't wait and take the stairs! It'll take too long! Now let go!" I tried to jerk free.
" I'm not going to let you fall to your death! Are you mad?!"
" Let go!" I jerked, but pulled too hard. He let go, but I fell out of the window.' Oh no! That jerk made me fall! Now I might actually die!' I closed my eyes and waited to hit the ground. I waited, but I never hit the ground." What the?" I opened my eyes. I almost screamed at the sight. A man caught her, but a man with gorgeous black shining wings. " W-who are you?"
" You asked the same question last night." I looked down.' He's flying?! Who is this guy?'" All I did was try and prevent that little brat from telling you his name."
" W-why?"
" You'd remember. But now, you probably do know." I shook my head.
" I don't remember. If I was supposed to remember you, I don't."
" Good. Then act like you never saw me here." He lowered us to the ground and let me down." Don't remember. It's for the best. See ya." I watched as he flew away.' Who was that?' Then it hit me.' Rai!' I ran to her. I checked her pulse.' Thank goodness, she's still alive.' Tamika ran outside by me.
" Are you okay?! I didn't mean for that to happen."
" I'm fine. Not a scratch on me. Come here and help me carry Rai to the nurses office." He nodded and came and helped me pick her up.
" No offense, but your friend is pretty heavy."
" No she's not. Quit being a wimp. She can't be heavy, she runs way too much."
" She's pretty heavy to me."' He's such a wimp.' Once we got to the nurses office we laid Rai down on one of the beds. The nurse came over to us.
" What happened to her?"
" Well, all we know is that there was a loud crash, then when we came back into the room, everyone was unconscious. I went and looked for Rai, and I found her outside on the ground."
" You mean this girl fell three stories?!" The nurse yelled at three others to go and check on the other students.
" I guess."
" Are any of her bones broken? Is she hurt? You two should've ran for help. She may need to go to the hospital."
" Well," Tamika said as he pointed to me." She fell three stories, and didn't even get a scratch on her, but you may want to check her out too."
" What are you saying?! I'm fine! She needs to help Rai, not me." He simply shrugged.
" Well, let me have a look at you."
" No. You have to help Rai. I'm fine, she's the one who needs to be looked at." The nurse looked at me for a moment.
" Okay. But I want you to go and sit down. Try not to strain your body."
" Fine."' These two are idiots. I did fall, but I was caught before I even hit the ground.' I went and sat at one of the chairs. I put my head in my hands and waited. I could hear the nurse talk to Tamika, but I couldn't hear what they were saying. After a few moments, Tamika came out and sat next to me.
" The nurse says that Rai will be fine. She only has a few scratches and a sprained ankle."
" That's good. At least she's not seriously hurt… Tamika?"
" Yea?"
" I kinda' feel like this is my fault."
" It isn't your fault, if it's anybodies fault, it'd be mine."
" Why would you say that?"
" Because I tried to make you remember. I guess that you and I were just never meant to be friends." He stood up and I looked at him.
" What are you talking about?! Of course we're friends! I don't care if you're a little weird, who isn't? But that has nothing to do with our friendship! It was because of you that I can even remember anything about Moi, and it's because of you that I was able to get Rai to the nurses office quicker."
" That's not it. If we stay friends, you can't call me buy me first name. Plus, you may end up remembering something else."
" I don't care! I can come up with a name for you. Like… Tam-san. That works. For remembering, I don't care if I remember something. I'll keep my mouth shut if I do."
" We can't be friends. I'm sorry." I stood up and walked in front of Tam-san, then grabbed him by the collar of his shirt.
" Now listen here, I said that I don't care. You are not going to not be my friend just because of some stupid demon thing. You got that?"
" What demon thing?"
" You know, that big demon thing that saved my life earlier."
" A demon saved you?"
" Yea, when I fell. Why?" I let go of his collar.
" What did he look like?" I was about to tell him, but he put his hand over my mouth." Follow me." I nodded and he took his hand off of my mouth. He started walking down the hall, and I followed. He led us to the old music room, which was never used anymore." Okay," he said as he shut the door." Tell me what he looked liked."
" Okay. Well, he obviously could fly. He had longish blackish purplish hair, and dark purple eyes."
" That's all you need to tell me. Thanks."
" Wait. Who was that guy?" He looked at me for a moment. Then he sighed.
" I don't think I should tell you, but his name is Kota. He's the prince of the demon world."' Kota? Prince of the demon world? I've heard that before.'
" I've heard of him before. Someone told me, maybe it was him."
" But what I want to know, is why he saved you. Demons don't usually save a human, unless they're under a contract with them."
" A contract?"
" It's complicated to explain."' Contract huh? I wonder what happens.'
" So, he saved me on his own free will? Cool."
" Not cool. He obviously is planning on using you or something."
" Use me?! What for?!"
" I don't know. I can't read minds."
" Probably can," I mumbled to myself.
" What was that?"
" Oh nothing. Just talking to myself."
" You seem to do that a lot."
" So? There's nothing wrong with that."
" I never said there was."
" You were thinking it."
" I was not."
" Yes you were."
" No I wasn't!"
" Yes you were!"
" No I wasn't!
" Yes you were!"
" Agh! Kimmie, you are so stubborn!"
" Like you're one to talk!" We kept arguing until a teacher heard us and made us stop and go back to our class.' Agh! That… That Tam-san is such a jerk!' When we got back, everyone was back to normal and was continuing on with the lesson. Mr. Yamaka looked over at us.
" Nice of you two to finally decide to join us."
" Sorry I'm late Mr. Yamaka. Mr. Jerk-face here wouldn't shut up." I said pointing to Tam-san.
" Who're you calling a jerk-face, you stubborn mule."
" What did you say?!" I turned to him.
" You heard me. Miss. Stubborn mule."
" Oh! That's it!" I leaped at him, and tried to punch him, but he grabbed my arm. I used my other, and was about to hit him, when Mr. Yamaka came over and grabbed my arm. I looked up at the teacher.
" Both of you stop it! I don't want to suspend the two of you. Now sit down at your seats."
" Yes Mr. Yamaka." I jerked my arm free from Tam-san, and Mr. Yamaka let go of my other. I sat down, as did Tam-san. Everyone was glancing at me, but looked away when I looked at them.' It's like they've never seen a girl try to hit a guy before.' Class went by quickly, and before I knew it, the bell rang. I collected my things and headed out the door. No one would walk by me.' They probably think I'll try and hit them if they come near me.' I smiled as I walked into the nurses office. I walked over to the nurse.
" How's Rai?"
" She's doing fine. You may see her if you like."
" Thank you." I walked over to Rai's bed.
" Hey." She looked over at me.
" Kimmie! I was hoping someone would come and see me! I'm dying of boredom!" I laughed.
" Even though you're hurt, you are still as energetic as always."
" Well, they said that my mother is going to come and get me in a bit. I'm fine, just a small sprain. I've had worse." I shook my head.
" Do you even know how far you fell?"
" No. How high?"
" Three stories."
" No way! I survived that high of a fall?! And with only a small sprain! I must be, like, invincible!" I laughed again.
" Well, it's good to see that you're okay. Oh, yea! Did anyone tell you what I almost did in class?"
" No. What did you do?"
" I almost hit that Tamika kid in the face! I would've hit him too, if Mr. Yamaka just let me."
" Oh, you mean Yuki?"
" Yuki? Who's that?"
" You mean you forgot his first name? You really have a bad memory."
" Heh. Yea, I do."' So his first name is Yuki. Yuki Tamika.'" Well, I've got to go. Kai's going to be home late again today, so I've got to make dinner. I swear, he has got to be on a date or something. Because there's no way he's been working late everyday." Rai laughed.
" Well, if he is, good for him."
" You're not kidding. Maybe he'll stop breathing down my neck. Call me when you can, okay?"
" Okay. See you tomorrow." I waved to her as I walked out.
" Bye." I was almost the last person to walk out of the school, except for the school council and them. I stopped by the park and watched the little kids play. I sighed.' Mother, father.'
*** Flashback***
" Come on Kimmie! You can do it!"
" I'm scared mommy. Do you pomise to catch me?"
" Of course sweet heart."
" Otay! Heres I come!" I pushed myself down the slide, and my mother caught me.
" See? I told you I would catch you! Do you want to go again?"
" Again! Again!" She laughed.
" Okay, but we have to go home soon."
" Awwww! I wanna stay here longer." My father came up with Kai at his side." Daddy! Big brodder! Watch!" I climbed up the rest of the stairs and sat down." Ready mommy?"
" I'm all ready."
" Otay!" I pushed myself down, and she caught me again.
" Good job Kimmie! That was great!"
" Thak you daddy!" I giggled. My mother put me down." Did I do good big brodder?"
" Yea." I smiled. I took hold of my mother's hand.
" We go home now?" She nodded. My father came and picked me up." Whoa!"
" Up you go!"
" Yay! I'm taller dan daddy now!" Kai took hold of my mother's hand, and we started home. We were just crossing the road when a drunk driver came speeding towards us. My parents looked at the vehicle.
" Mommy! Daddy! Wat's wrong?" The next thing I knew my father took me off of his shoulders, then we were running. I felt someone push me, I fell on the sidewalk. I heard the crash, but I didn't understand what was going on. I looked for Kai, I found him sitting up hanging onto a pole." B-big brodder?!" I crawled over to him." Big brodder, are you okay?" He looked at me. Then he grabbed me into a hug." Wat's wrong big brodder? Are you sad?" I heard him cry. I pulled away." Wat's wrong big brodder?" I looked at the car that had crashed no more than ten feet away. I could see my parents under the car.
" Big brodder… Why are mommy and daddy under that car? Are they fixing it?" He cried even more when I said that. I went to stand up, but Kai pulled me back." Big brodder. I want to go and see mommy and daddy." He shook his head.
" K-Kimmie.. Mom and dad…"
" Wat is it?"
" They won't be coming back with us."
" But why big brodder? Are they going on a vacation?" He nodded.
" A very long vacation."
" To where?" He pointed to the sky." To the sky?" He nodded again." But why are they going to the sky?" He grabbed me in another hug.
" Kimmie. They're dead."
*** Present***
I shook myself out of memory lane.' God I hate it when I remember things I don't want to remember. After that day, Kai swore he'd always protect me, from whatever dare try and hurt me.' I sighed.' Yet he's such a jerk.' I stood up.' I'd better get home and start dinner.' I walked out of the park and headed home. Once I got home, I put my stuff away and started dinner. I made what I was best at making, curry for dinner, and shortcake for dessert. Kai always loved it when I made curry and shortcake.' I hope he likes what I'm making. I know he loved it. I just haven't made it in so long.' Just as I was finishing dinner, Kai walked in.
" I'm back Kimmie!"
" I'm in the kitchen!" I walked out to see him." You have perfect timing, I just finished dinner."
" It smells like curry."
" It is."
" With shortcake for dessert?"
" You know it."
" You must've read my mind. I've been craving your curry and shortcake lately."
" Well I'm glad that I made something you were in the mood for. I'll get the table set, you go and wash up." He nodded.' Man, I sound just like mother.' I quickly set the table, then sat down and waited for Kai. He came back out after a few minutes and sat down.
" I'm starving… Kimmie?"
" Yes?"
" Why did you put out three plates and silverware?" I looked at the table.
" Oops. Sorry, I must just be out of it a little bit." I stood up and grabbed the extra plate and silverware.' Why did I set the table for three? Maybe I was hoping that Ten-san would come back with Kai. That's got to be it.' My face lightly reddened when I thought of him. I put the plate and silverware away, then went back to the kitchen and sat back down. I got myself a plate, since Kai had already started eating.
" Is it good?"
" No, that's why I'm eating it. Of course it's good! Your food tastes like what mom used to make."' Mom…' I smiled.
" Thanks."
" It's nothing." After we ate dinner, I cleared the table and gave him his dessert. He ate the whole thing before I got half way down with mine.
" Are you in a hurry or something?"
" No. It's just that I haven't had shortcake for a while, none the less yours."
" There's more in the kitchen if you want more. I made extra, just incase." He stood up.
" I think I will have another."' He is such a pig. He eats two, maybe three servings of curry, and now he's having two shortcakes. He's gonna get fat.' Kai soon returned with another shortcake on his plate. As soon as he sat down, he started to eat. I was able to finish my first one just before he finished his second. I stood up, then went over and took Kai's plate for him as well.
" I can do the dishes, since you made dinner."
" It's okay, I can do it." I was just about to start washing the dishes when the phone rang." I got it!" I yelled, knowing who it would be who was calling. I picked up the phone." Hello?"
" Is Kimmie there?"
" This is her. May I ask who this is."
" It's me, Rai. Didn't you recognize me?"
" Oh! Rai. Sorry. I'm a little out of it today."
" Are you feeling okay?"
" Yea. I've been spacing out a lot. And I set the dinner table for three."
" Why? Did Tenshu say he was coming over?"
" No. I just must've been thinking about him coming over and having dinner with us again."
" You are such a dork. You should just tell him how you feel."
" You know I can't do that."
" You should tell him. He's a boy, you know that you need to tell them things, or they won't get it."
" I know." I sighed." But what if he doesn't like me back, and he doesn't want to stay friends anymore?"
" You know that he's not like that. He'll tell you how he feels, and if he doesn't like you like that, then he's bound to stay friends with you. It's not like him to say you can't be friends after telling him that."
" I know. I just don't know how to tell him. I mean, I only see him when he comes over here to help Kai study. Then he's always with Kai."
" Write him a note, or tell Kai to ask Tenshu to come over when he has a long day. Then you could tell him."
" Thanks Rai. I might just do that. You're the best."
" I'm glad I could help. Oh! Kimmie?"
" Yea?"
" There's a strange man who's looking for you. He came into the school earlier. I've never seen him before. He asked me when you'd be back to school. I told him that you'd be back tomorrow, but that he could find you at your house. But he said he knew where you lived, but he wanted to see you at school. Do you know him?"
My breathing caught.' Could it be Kota?'
" What did he look like?"
" Well, he had kinda' long black hair, and purple-gray eyes. Also, he was very tall, and quite handsome. But Kimmie! You better not go off with an older man! You still have to tell Tenshu how you feel!"
" Don't worry, I don't think that will ever happen."
" Good. But, I've got to go. My mother needs to use the phone. I'll see you tomorrow. Bye."
" Bye." I hung up the phone.' So it is Kota. But why does he want to see me? And why at school?' I washed the dishes in a daze. Once I was done I went and did my homework, I was able to get my homework done with no problem.' Why is this stuff so easy? I rarely even pay attention in class.' After I got done with my homework it was already late, so I took a shower and went to bed. I woke up earlier than usual, but I got ready anyway. Kai looked at me when I went downstairs, then the clock.
" Well, you're up early."
" I couldn't go back to sleep."
" Do you want me to give you a ride to school? I've got the time."
" No, but thanks. I'm going. See ya later." I waved and left.' I hope Kai doesn't get suspicious since I'm leaving this early. I never go to school this early, none the less even wake up this early.' I was the first to get to school, besides the teachers. I sat down at one of the benches as always and waited.' Maybe it's not Kota. I mean, Rai did say that he black hair, while Kota's hair looks like it's a very dark purple, almost black. Plus, his eyes are a dark purple, not purple-gray.' I sighed.' I need to calm down. It's probably not even him. Then who would it be? I didn't do anything illegal without me knowing did I?' I heard footsteps coming closer to me, so I looked up. There was a tall man, he fit the description that Rai gave me. I sighed.' It's not Kota.'
" Kimmie. I knew you'd be here." My breathing almost stopped.' That's Kota's voice. But he doesn't look like him, well, not like he did yesterday.' I stood up.
" W-who are you?"
" You really like to ask that question a lot, don't you?"
" You can't be Kota, you look different than him."
" So, the brat told you my name did he? Oh, well. The reason why I don't look like I did yesterday is because I'm in my human form."
" Human… form?"
" Yes. Just like Moi can turn into a different form, so can I. Speaking of Moi, he's just been dying to see you again, so." He pulled something off of his back.' That's Moi?' He flicked Moi's sleeping head." Hey! Wake up."
" Why'd you have to flick me?" He nodded towards me.
" Kimmie?!" He flew over to me, and right into my arms.
" Kimmie! It's been so long!" I laughed a little awkward. He looked up at me." Don't you remember me?"
" I only can really remember your name. I don't remember anything else really." His eyes got big and watery." Oh! Don't cry! I'm sure I'll remember the rest sometime!" He flew back over to Kota.' Oh! Don't leave, come back!… He's just so cute! I guess we must've had some good times together.'
" Kota! Please! Give her her memory back! Please!"
" You know that I can't do that."
" Yes you can! You're the prince of the demon world! You can do anything!" He turned back to me." It's not fair that she can't remember me! She needs to remember me!" He turned back to Kota. Kota sighed. I couldn't see Moi's face, but it seemed that he had a grin of triumph on his face.
" You're so… so… I don't think that there's a word to describe you."
" Will you do it?!"
" I can only do so much."
" But are you going to return her memories?"
" I told you I can't," Moi was about to say something, but Kota interrupted him." But, she can. We just have to help her remember." Moi looked confused.
" How are we going to do that?"
" We're going to make a contract with Miss. Kimmie over there."' What?! A contract with me! This can't be good…'
" But, Kota! You know that will drain her life span way quicker with both of us doing that! She can't support the both of us!"
" She can if I don't turn back into my demon form, or you into your true familiar form."
" But, Kota. Your family…"
" They'll be fine. We'll only make the contract last for a little while." He looked over at me." So Kimmie, what do you say? We can't force you to make the contract, you must agree to it." I backed up a little.
" I-I don't know what this contract is, but you said it will drain my life span. I don't think I'm up for that."
" But Kimmie!" Moi flew back over to me." You did before! With me. It's just this time, you'll have Kota as well. Which, you should feel special, since the prince of the demon world as even considered this. So please!" His eyes got all big and watery again.' Agh! He obviously knows that I can't say no to things that look like that!'
" I guess, since you want to so bad."
" Yay!" He threw his little arms around my neck." This'll be great!" He stopped and went back to Kota." You ready Kota?" He nodded.
" But the real question is, are you ready Kimmie?"' Am I? Am I really going to give up some of my life span? I don't even really know these two. Yet, I just can't seem to say no to Moi.' I nodded." Okay. You're going to probably feel a little queasy after this, but you should be fine."
" Should be fine? That doesn't sound too great."
" Well, to tell you the truth, this is the first time a demon has ever made a contract with a human."
" What?!" They walked closer to me, until they were within reaching distance. They said some strange words that didn't sound like your normal language.
" Contracts. Seal." They put their arms out, but didn't touch my head. I closed my eyes. As soon as they started it it was done. I opened my eyes.
" There. All done. How do you feel?" Everything started to spin very fast.
" W-will you two stop moving?" I started to sway on my feet, then fell. Kota caught me before I hit the ground.
" Whoa there."
" I-I said… Stop m-moving." The moving didn't stop, it just got faster. Then, there was nothing.
" Kimmie? Are you okay?" My eyes fluttered open." H-huh? What happened? Where am I?" I looked at the one person standing by me.' Rai?'" Rai, when did you get here?"
" About a half-an-hour ago. I found you lying on the ground out cold."
" What?"' Oh yea. Wait. Where's Moi and Kota?' I sat up and help my head so the room would stay still.
" Yea. You must've not gotten enough sleep."
" I did wake up really early today."
" So you probably just needed some sleep."
" I guess you're right."
" Oh, by the way, did you ask Kai to have Tenshu come over to your house tonight?" I shook my head.
" Ten-san is going on a trip tomorrow with his class."
" Wait. Doesn't that mean that Kai's going too?" I nodded.
" Yea. I convinced him that I'll be okay. He thinks I'll probably sleep all weekend anyways."
" Do you want me to stop by?"
" Nah. I don't want to take up your weekend. I'll be fine."
" When you say that, I worry the most."
" Don't. I can take care of myself. I am sixteen, and I'm going to be seventeen soon."
" I don't see how you were held back. You're so smart."
" I got sick a lot when I was young, so I had to repeat a year."
" That's right, you told me about that."
" Yea, but that was a long time ago."
" Well, we should get to class. You up for it?"
" You bet I am." I stretched and got out of the bed. The nurse gave us passes and we went to class. When we got there, we gave Mr. Yamaka our passes and went to our seats.
" Hi, Yuki." I said before I sat down.
" So, you remembered me?"
" Nope. Rai told me your name on the phone last night." I heard him sigh behind me. The day went by very quickly. First thing I knew I was sitting in class staring out the window, then it was time for lunch, then time to leave. Rai was walking next to me while talking to May about what they were going to do over their weekend.
" Are you sure you don't want me to stop by?"
" I'm sure Rai. You and May have fun. I'll find something to do." I waved good-bye to them as they headed towards Rai's house, and I headed towards mine. Once I got home I could hear Kai running around trying to get everything ready for his trip.
" I'm home!"
" Kimmie?" He stopped and looked at me." Are you sure you don't want me to stay here?"
" I'm sure. You go and have fun on your trip."
" Okay. Well, I've got to go, or I'll miss the bus." He walked by and rubbed my head." You be good."
" I will. And tell Ten-san I said hi, and have fun."
"' Kay, I will. Later sport." Then I was alone. I sighed.' This is going to be a long and boring weekend.' I went and sat on the couch and turned on the T.V.
" Hey." I jumped and screamed. I turned and hit the person square in the face. I opened my eyes to find Kota rubbing his nose." What was that for?"
" Oh! I'm sorry! You shouldn't sneak up on me. My brother learned that the hard way as well." I got up and stood in front of him." Let me see."
" It's fine. It's nothing."
" I said let me see. It's my fault, now let me see." He sighed, then took his hand off of his nose." Ouch! Didn't that hurt?"
" Kinda'. If I was in my demon form, I wouldn't have even felt it."
" It's swelling. I'll go and get you some ice."
" I don't need it." I walked towards the kitchen.
" Yes you do." I disappeared into the kitchen for a moment, then reappeared with an ice pack in hand. I walked over to Kota and handed him the ice pack." Here."
" I told you I didn't need it." He took the pack anyways.' He needs to learn to lighten up and express himself more.' I sighed, then went and sat back down on the couch. Kota walked to the couch, waited a minute, then sat down. He stared at me. I looked at him.
" What?"
" Is this all you do?"
" When I'm home alone, yes."
" You're a boring human."
" I'm sorry that I'm not exciting enough for you, your highness."
" You're also very immature." I looked over at him.
" I am not!"
" You are too." He turned to me. I glared at him. He smirked at me, I pulled away and I could feel my face redden slightly.
" What?"
" You're actually kinda' cute when you glare like that." My face reddened more.
" What are you talking about?" I turned around and crossed my arms.
" Oh, did I find your weakness? Compliments? What, do you like them or not?"
" That's none of your business." He laughed.
" I'll say you like them."
" Shut up." He leaned over to try and look at my face.
" You're blushing."
" I am not." I turned away further.
" Yes you are!" He moved closer to me. I was about to say something when he moved and I fell off of the edge of the couch. Moi looked over the couch when he heard the crash.
" Ow." I rubbed my head, then looked up at Kota, who was laying on top of me. My face reddened even more.
" Wow. I never you two liked each other that much after only a day of knowing each other."
" I don't!" We both yelled.
" Get off of me Kota!" I pushed at him, but I wouldn't have been able to push him off unless he helped. We both sat there, me blushing like mad, and him only lightly blushing.' What's with this guy?! I just meet him, and now this!'
" Sorry." Kota stood up and sat back down on the couch. I sat up.
" It wasn't your fault." He looked down at me.
" What if I did it on purpose?" He grinned and my mouth opened in surprise.
" You wouldn't of."
" But what if I did?" I glared at him, but then stopped when I remembered what he said. He smirked yet again. I crossed my arms and turned away from him. He started to laugh. I turned back around.
" What's so funny?"
" I can't believe you fell for that! I was just kidding about all of that!" He clutched his stomach from laughing.
" So, you think that's funny?!" He nodded while trying to breathe. I stood up and hit him over the head. He stopped and grabbed onto his head.
" What was that for?"
" Hmpf!" I turned and started for my room." I'll be in my room. Nobody bother me." I heard Moi tell Kota that he kinda' had that coming. I opened and slammed my door. I went and laid on my bed.' He is the biggest jerk in the world! He's even worse than the kid that sits in front of me in class! I shouldn't have made that stupid contract with him!' There was a knock on my door." I said don't bother me!"
" Oh come on Kimmie. I was just messing."
" I don't care! Go away!"
" I'm sorry. Can I come in?"
" No!" I heard my door open, then close. I sat up." I said no."
" I said I'm sorry. I can't help that you're so easy to trick." I looked away.
" At least I'm not the biggest jerk in the world."
" Come on. I was bored. You're not that fun, and you should be. Either that, or you could at least go somewhere."
" I don't have any plans. Plus I told Kai that I'd stay home."
" Kai?"
" My older brother."
" What he doesn't know won't hurt him."
" I'm not going anywhere." I heard him walk closer, then he sat down on the bed." Will you just leave me alone. I'm trying to be mad at you." He laughed.
" You have to try and be mad at someone?"
" Yes, actually, she does." It was Moi." She may not seem like it, but she's one of the nicest people around. She doesn't hate anyone. She may act mean, but she's actually very nice." I turned to Moi.
" Moi! Don't say things like that!"
" It's true," he shrugged.
" They are not, and you know it!"
" They are so!" I turned away again.
" What? Are they really true? Are you really a nice girl, not the mean girl you come off as?" I ignored him.' I'm mean, well, sometimes.'" So you are a nice girl. Then why don't you act like it?"
" I don't have to."
" You'd make more friends if you did."
" I don't need anymore friends. Rai is the only friend that I need." I heard Moi whine.
" I'm not your friend Kimmie?!"
" Well, of course you are. I'm sorry," I stood up and Moi flew into my arms." I didn't mean to forget you."
" You better not forget again. We're trying to have you remember, not forget."
" I'll try my best."
" See," Kota said as he stood up." You are a nice girl."
" So what if I am?"
" I still say you should act like it too." He walked by me and gave Moi a pat on the head, then went out of my room. I looked at my door.
" What do you think bit him in the butt?"
" Maybe because you didn't say that he was one of your friends."
" He knows that I still have to get to know him better, but I'll say he's one of my buddies, or close to being one of my friends. He just needs to act nicer to me."
" He's a demon. You can't expect that much kindness from him. Nothing against him or anything, it's just that all demons are that way."
" I know. It's just that he needs to try and at least act human." Moi and I sighed at the same time. After an hour of laying on my bed and looking at the ceiling, my stomach growled. I sat up.
" You hungry Moi?"
" You bet I am." I stood up.
" You know, Kota's been very quiet."
" He likes the quiet, and being by himself." I rolled my eyes. I opened my door and headed downstairs. Once I was downstairs, I could smell food, well, burning food to be exact. I ran into the kitchen to find Kota trying to cook.' He's cooking?!' I ran next to him.
" What are you doing?!"
" I was making something to eat, but this infernal contraption wouldn't work!"
" You're going to burn down the house! Move!" I shoved Kota out of the way and turned the stove off. I opened the oven, but he didn't put anything in there. I closed it and went to deal with the 'food' that was on the stove top. I opened the lid and had to plug my nose." Agh! What is that?!"
" I was trying to make my favorite dish, but you don't have the ingredients I needed. I just threw in what smelt like the stuff I originally would've used."
" You could've asked me to help you know."
" I didn't want to bother."
" Well, you obviously need a lesson in cooking."
" I can cook just fine, thank you."
" I mean human food cooking. I can't have you burning down the house trying to make something." He crossed his arms, then I heard his stomach growl. I stifled a giggle.
" What?!" His face darkened a little." I'm hungry, I can't help it!"
" Don't worry, I'm hungry too. I'll make us something to eat."
" I don't think I trust your food." I stopped and stood still, glaring icily at him. Kota and Moi flinched back.
" You. Don't. What?" He turned to Moi.
" What did I say?"
" You insulted her cooking, which is awesome by the way."
" Girls." He looked back at me, then sighed." Okay, I'll eat your cooking." I stopped glaring at him.
" Good. Now go and wait out in the living room." I pushed Kota and Moi out of the kitchen. Then I turned back around and looked at the mess Kota left behind.' This is going to take forever.' By the time I was done, it was an hour-an-a half later. I set the table and told them to come and eat. Kota rushed over to the table and sat down in a chair.
" I'm starving! What are we having?"
" It's spaghetti. This is the second or third time I've made it. I like it, but Kai doesn't care for it that much." Kota looked at it for a moment. I looked at him." Well. Dig. In."
" Heh!" He took the fork and grabbed a plate full of it.
" You didn't have to take that much. I just wanted you to eat something."
" I said I was hungry and I meant it." Moi began digging right on in.
" This is great Kimmie! All of your cooking is great!"
" Thanks Moi." I took a bite of mine while watching Kota poke and probe at his." Are you going to just poke at it all day, or are you going to eat?"
" I guess I'll try it. But that doesn't mean I'll like it."
" Just try it." He gulped, then lifted the fork to his mouth. Then he took a bite. His face seemed to light up.
" You really made this?"
" Yes. Why?"
" It's… It's delicious."
" I'm glad you like it." After I said that, he started to eat like a pig. He finished his first plate, then went for seconds. I watched in amazement as he engulfed another whole plate of food. Once he was done he looked at me.
" What?"
" How can you eat that much?"
" My sister used to ask the same thing."
" You have a sister?"
" I had a sister. She died from a virus."
" I'm sorry."
" It's okay. We knew she wasn't going to make it very long."
" What virus was it?"
" You wouldn't know what it is. It doesn't exist in your world."
" So, tell me."
" It's what we call the 'Demon killer' virus."
" Why's it called that?"
" Because anyone who catches it will die."
" Isn't there a cure?"
" No. It becomes immune to anything over time. Nothing can stop it from spreading."' Oh… That's so sad.'
" I'm really sorry."
" I said that you don't need to worry. She's died a long time ago."
" But still, she's your sister, no matter what."
" I know. She was a very kind girl. She liked everyone. She didn't have a care in the world. She always wanted to go to the human world. Since she couldn't, I promised her to go and see for her." I stared at Kota with a new look of admiration.
" That's so sweet of you to do."
" It's nothing. She wanted me to come, so I did."
" Then why are you still here, if you don't mind me asking."
" I can't go back until our contract is over."
" I know that, but you came back. You're a demon, I thought you didn't care about humans."
" I don't really, but Moi wouldn't quit asking until I came back."
" I still don't understand why you made a contract with me. You had no reason, but you still did it." He turned away.
" I wanted to know what it's like here, okay? That's all." I smiled.
" Okay." I stood up." I'm going to do the dishes and head to bed." I grabbed the dishes and walked into the kitchen. I heard someone come walking into the kitchen." Yes? What is it?"' Kota, I'm not stupid, I know that it's you.' I felt Kota wrap his arms around my waist. I dropped the dish I was doing and my face went red." W-what do you think you're doing?"
" Thank you."
" Huh?"
" Thank you for listening. You're the only one who I've ever told about my sister. Heh, not even Moi knew all of that."
" Really?" I felt him nod." Well, I'm flattered and all, but you can let go of me now."
" I don't wanna."
" Let me go." I tried walking around, but he kept his grip." Moi! Come and get him off of me!"
" What's he doing now?" Right as Moi flew in, he flew into my head. I rubbed my head, while Moi fell down. I looked down at him.
" Are you okay?" Kota put his head on my shoulder to see what happened.
" Moi? What are you doing on the floor?" Moi sat up.
" I flew right into Kimmie's head! That's why I'm on the floor." Kota burst out laughing. I was able to get him off while he was laughing.
" What's so funny?"
" You must have a big head if Moi flew into it!" I glared at him. Before he knew what hit him, he was rubbing his head." Why do you always hit me on my head?!"
" You always deserve it." I finished the dishes and went to take a shower. After taking a shower, I felt much better. I sighed as I walked out of the bathroom.
" What were you doing in there?" I looked up at Kota.
" Ah!" I slapped him as my face grew red.
" PERVERT!!!" He rubbed his face where I slapped him.
" Now what'd I do?!"
" What are you doing waiting outside the bathroom door?!"
" I was wondering what you were doing in there."
" Well, you don't need to know." He looked at me.
" Where are your clothes? And, what is this you're wearing now?" He tugged at the towel.
" Perv!!" I hit him again, making him fall down.
" Will you stop that!" I ignored him and walked into my room. I slammed the door and walked over to my dresser.
" Jerk. Perv. What next?" I grabbed my favorite p.j's and got dressed. After I got dressed, I crawled under the blankets. I was able to fall asleep rather quickly. I woke up to Moi yelling in my ear.
" Wake up! You lazy bum!" I opened my eyes and glared at the floating familiar.
" You better run."
" Why?" I swatted at him, but missed." Hey!"
" Next time I won't miss." His eyes grew wide with fear.
" Okay, now be rational here Kimmie." He started to back away.
" You need to learn to let me sleep. And on a Saturday at that."
" But it's already noon."
" So? I like to sleep in. It's Saturday, no school. Which means I sleep in." I pulled the blankets over my head and rolled over.
" Come on Kimmie! I'm bored!"
" Then go bug Kota."
" He's asleep too!"
" Then you go back to sleep."
" I'm not tired though."
" Well, I am, so leave me alone."
" You're mean!" After a minute of silence I sighed.' He's gone. Now I can sleep.' I was just about to fall asleep when there was a blow horn sounding in my ear. I jumped up and looked around.
" What?! What is it?!"
" I knew this would wake you up." I glared at Moi." Uh…"" Moi. I wanted to sleep."
" I'm sorry! But Kota said to try and use this to wake you up. He didn't want me to wake him."
" Kota." I grabbed the blow horn and walked downstairs. I found Kota snoring lightly on the couch. I put the horn right next to his ear and pushed the button. He jolted up.
" What?!!" He looked at me." Kimmie? What is it?"
" You made Moi wake me up."
" Yea. He was bored. I told him you wouldn't mind." I glared at him.
" You have no idea how wrong you are." I pushed down the button. He put his hands on his ears, as did Moi.
" Stop that! Do you want us to go deaf?!" I kept the button down for a moment longer, then stopped. I walked towards the stairs, throwing the blow horn away.
" I'm going back to bed."
" That's not fair! Why can't I sleep too?" I turned my head around slowly and looked at him.
" You have to watch Moi, right?"
" Y-yes."
" Good. Now I'll be sleeping. Don't disturb me." I turned back around and headed for my room.
" I wonder what's got her in such a bad mood."
" I heard that Kota!" I slammed my door and went back under the covers. I was able to fall back asleep as soon as I was under the blankets. I was able to wake up on my own too.' That's new.' I sat up and rubbed my eyes.' They didn't try and wake me.' I got out of bed and walked downstairs.
" Hey guys. Thanks for not waking…" I looked up to find Kai and Ten-san standing in the living room.
" Kai? Ten-san?" They looked at me.
" Hello Kimmie. Did you just wake up?" I nodded at Ten-san's question.
" When did you two get back? I thought you weren't coming home until tomorrow."
" We weren't," Kai said as he sat down." But one of the teachers got sick and they didn't want anyone else to get sick. So they sent us home early. Why? Didn't you miss me?"
" Of course I did." I walked over and sat next to my brother." It was so boring without you here. I didn't even leave the house, like promised."
" That's a good little sis." Kai rubbed my already messed up hair.
" Stop that! It's embarrassing!" Ten-san simply smiled.
" Hey Tenshu."
" Yes Kai?"
" Did you get that work assignment that we were given done?"
" Yes. Why?"
" Do you think I could borrow it? I didn't get mine done." I looked up at my brother.
" Kai! That's cheating!"
" No it's not. He's just helping, that's all."
" It's okay Kimmie, really. I don't mind."' Oh, Ten-san is so sweet. Even when Kai's a big bully!'
" Thanks. You can just stay here tonight, it saves you a trip home."
" Oh, no. I couldn't."
" Nah. It's okay. Right, Kimmie?" He looked down at me.' He always does this! He knows that I can't say no to Ten-san!' I nodded.
" Yea, it's okay."' I mean, I don't mind.' I smiled.
" Well, that settles it! You're staying."
" Uh… Okay."
" Come on," Kai stood up." I need to go and get that work assignment done. I don't want the teach to flip if it's not done."
" Alright." They both went into Kai's room and shut the door.
" Kai's no fair. I wanna spend time with Ten-san too." I crossed my arms.' Wait. Where'd Kota and Moi go?' I stood up and went on a search. I was careful to whisper and tip-toe around so Kai wouldn't hear.
" Kota? Moi? Where are you?" I opened the hall closet, but it was empty." Kota? Moi?!"' Agh! Where are they?… The attic?' I walked upstairs and went to my closet. I found the door to the attic and grabbed onto the string. I paused.' It's been a long time since I've been up there. Last time Kai scared me, and mother and father came and calmed me down. Well, here goes.' I pulled down on the string and the stairs came down. I walked up them and quickly searched for the light switch." Found ya!" I flicked on the switch, but the attic only had boxes." They're not here?" I climbed the rest of the way up, then stood up. The attic wasn't too small, and the ceiling wasn't very low, just low enough for me to stand up. Otherwise it was very spacious. There were many boxes of old photos and most of Kai's and my old toys. I walked around and accidentally knocked over a box." Crap." I picked up the box and found a picture of everyone. There was our mother, father, and Kai and I, all of us. I traced my finger over the old photo." Mother… Father…" I heard another box fall and someone say," Shoot." I put the picture in my pocket and put the box down." Kota? I-is that you?" I walked over to where the sound came from. All I found was the box that fell. I picked it up and put it back.
" C-come on, this isn't funny. Come out." I heard another box fall, but there wasn't anyone's voice this time." Moi?" I walked towards the sound. I peeked around the corner of boxes.
" Boo!"
" Ah!!" I screamed and fell back on my butt." No! Go away!" I heard laughing, so I opened my eyes.' Kota! And Moi!' They were both laughing like hyenas. I stood up." Oh, you two are so dead."
" Come on Kimmie! That was hilarious! You should've seen your face!"
" Do you really think that's funny?!!" He stopped and saw that I was on the verge of crying.
" Oh. Come on, it was just a joke." He reached for my shoulder, but I jerked away.
" You think everything's a joke! You never give anything a rest!"
" Look," I put my hand up and interrupted him.
" No. I'm done. You've only been here, what, three days? And you've already become a bully. All you've done is played around, scaring me, messing with my head! I bet you even purposely almost set this house on fire just as a joke!"
" No."
" You can't stay here anymore."
" What?" Moi and Kota both looked at me.
" You heard me. Right now, I couldn't careless if my memory comes back or not. I hope it doesn't. So, do what you have to do to break the contract."
" Kimmie. You can't mean that. All the fun times we had."
" Moi, you, you of all people. I'm very disappointed." Moi hung his head, and I turned to Kota." And you, I don't see how you're a prince. All you do is trick people for your own fun. You're the most selfish person, demon, whatever, that I've ever met. You're not fit to be any type of prince. Even the meanest princes wouldn't do what you do to people." Finally the tears ran down my cheeks." I actually trusted that you'd try and help me remember, but I guess I was wrong." I turned away and headed for the stairs." I'm sorry I even bothered. I shouldn't have ever trusted a demon to help. All demons care about is themselves."
" Kimmie, wait!"
" No. I'm done waiting." I stepped down on the first stair and looked back at them." I'm not waiting anymore." Then I shut off the lights.
