Chapter 1: Milk and Honey
Hiro flopped on his couch and let out a big sigh. He was a little depressed since his date was supposed to meet him at the park, but she stood him up. He ran a hand through his long maroon-red hair that stopped at his mid-back. Hiro didn't want to stay home for the rest of a good day (even though it was technically evening now) but at the same time he felt too lazy to get up and do anything.
Pulling his motorcycle up, he had decided to go to a small cafe' that had just opened up earlier this year. Walking in, he examined the place: some tables, a bar, a small stage, and an average amount of customers for a fresh place. He sat at a random table and after awhile a girl with extremely long silver hair stepped onto the stage. He had noticed her when he came in but she had on different clothes now. A few other people came onto the stage with equipment. After getting setting up, the silver-haired girl, who now had a guitar in her hands, came up to mic, but instead he heard a male voice which belonged to the keyboardist. "Alright everyone, two more and then we're closing up. Here at the Kekoo cafe'." When he was finished, he signaled everybody ready and with a steady sigh, the intro started. Soft notes filled the air of the cafe'. First keyboard, then the rest followed. He was starting to get anxious to even hear a word come out. Then she began to sing...
heart beat/time elapsing music
Love, love is so fair from easy doom worded feel like somebody prayed
gentle impulsion shakes and leaks in there feel like somebody prayed teardrop on the fire feel like somebody prayed
He listened to her singing long and hard. Her voice was like milk and honey. As part of a rock band, he had heard many types of music from a different variety of people, both men and women, but he absolutely never felt so much of a connection with the mood her music created. He also couldn't help but think that she reminded him of something, no, someone.
night, night, if you dare black flowers blossom feel like someone prayed black flowers blossomed feel like someone prayed teardrop on the fire feel like someone...
heart beat/time stopping music
The song ended
Perfect...It was the only word he could think of. Sung with passion and such beauty that he could not imagine. She let out a deep breath she didn't know she was holding and opened her eyes for the first time since the music started and looked around as people started to pile in to see the young girl sing. She looked a little worried since they only had one song left. 'This might get ugly' she thought to herself. Then golden eyes met teal ones, and she froze. The boy, wasn't really a boy more like a man, he-he was smirking at her. At first scared, she quickly gained back her confidence and continued to play the last song of the night. She sang harder than ever, every moment or two, sneaking a look at the red haired person who never looked away.
Nervous was the woman on stage in front of him. Hiro felt how she tensed at looking at all the people who were coming when the band was almost done. She kept looking until she met gazes with him, and Hiro tried hard to hide his coming blush and succeeded, smiling up at her. The petite girl looked like she was about to jump as she cheered right up and did the last song. She put her heart and soul into what she sang and would try to look at Hiro without being noticed, he caught every time. When the song finished, the manager tried politely to throw everyone out. At that moment, Hiro asked for the restroom, not feeling like running the speed limit just in case.
When he came back out he noticed the whole place was dark except for one light on a table with someone at it who looked to be just going home. He looked around the cafe', there was no one in the back either. 'How long did I spend in there?' he asked himself as he walked over to whoever was at the table. "Excuse me?" The person turned around to show golden eyes that sparkled in the dim light but still shined. "Yes, sir...um we are closed I'm sorry," she paused giving a questioning look, "Um, How did you get in here? The door is locked," "I was in the bathroom," he answered like it was the most natural thing in the world to say. "oh..." she said unable to find words. She walked him over to the door, unlocked it, and let him out along with herself, locking it again. Hiro jumped on his bike and started to ride off when she stopped him just as he got to the end the of the street. He took off his helmet. "What?" "You forgot your jacket!" she had to yell it, since he was almost out of sight. Hiroshi was about to back up, but the girl was already making her way to him in split-seconds. "Here, you almost left without it," she said handing it to him, "Thanks, hey, you sing nice, have I ever met you before?" "Thank you, well I gotta go, bye!" before Hiro could say anything else, she had made a mad dash down the other end of the street and turned. "Hmmm, I thought the only thing over there was the park...oh well," with that he sped down the street and made it to his apartment. Opening the door and jumping into bed, he began to relax and then drift into sleep.
