Oh! Thank so much for the reviews guys! Thanks thanks thanks. Here is therefore the next chapter of this. :) Also I want to keep Garu solemn swear to keep silent for a while, but he is going to talk pretty soon.

Enjoy!

Chapter 2. His name is Garu

" Pucca, shouldn't we wait until tomorrow?" Ching asked, nervously looking around the police office a.k.a Abyo's home. I shake my head. Wait until tomorrow. That's impossible. Not now. I need to know who he is and not just his name. Though in my mind I kept repeating his name, over, over, and over again. Am I being too impulsive? Too straight forward? Is it normal? I've never felt exactly like this.

" But, Pucca," Ching glanced at me. "What if he's dangerous?" she asked.

I frowned.

He definitely is not dangerous.

" So Tobe is at it again," I hear a Abyo ask.

I peer through and I saw him again. My heart skipped a beat.
Garu!

Garu nodded fatigued. Even now I had an impulse to run and stand close to him. To see him straight to face.

Garu (heart) sigh.

" Nothing new there. What are you doing in Sooga though? I thought you were in a giant expedition to become world class ninja,'' Abyo placed a bowl down for him. Garu shrugged and pointed to the bed on the side. It was obvious he was really tired. I wanted to knock this window apart just to at least see him closer.

" Pucca! Pucca!" Ching warned " You're breaking the spring!"

Alertly Ching pulled me back. I then noticed, letting go immediately.

The lights inside started to dim.

" All right then, Goodnight Garu," Abyo walked to his room.

" I really think we should come back tomorrow, we can come early," Ching suggested.

The chicken in her head, Won, nodding in agreement. I sighed. She's right. No matter how much I wanted to see him it was late and he was probably sleeping now. I should let him sleep-urgh! But I do wish to see him again.

" Come on Pucca! Save your energy for tomorrow," Ching suggested.

I stood up and nodded.

Tomorrow seemed like forever! I was only 17 and waiting made me feel old. No! Resist! Tomorrow. I waved Ching goodbye and start running before I turn back.

" He'll be here tomorrow," I reminded myself. Tomorrow-

I rushed and knocked at the door. " Pucca? What are- it's 3:00 A.M in the morning," Ching yawned. I smiled sheepishly.

" I want to see him I-I couldn't sleep, and when I did sleep I dreamt of him and then I would wake up only to wish to see him, sorry" I never spoke so much in my life! Ever!

Ching stared wide eyed then started laughing.

" You really like him? That fast?" Ching hustled into her coat. Won squabbled so much I knew it was mad at being waken up so early. I only nodded, not trusting myself to speak. Have I really fallen in love so fast? Impossible, but maybe just maybe I do feel like a deep crush is starting. Just thinking about how I met him. How simply adorable he looked. How...ARGH! I gripped my dress and black leggings. Control yourself. Breath.

" Okay okay, we'll go but first a little breakfast," Not until Ching mentioned it did I feel a grumble in my stomach. All right. Food first then Garu. I slurped most of the soup in haste.

" You know Pucca I've never seen you like this before," Ching murmured amused.

I just replied with a friendly shrug. I'm not sure what's going on either. I finished and with hope eagerly glanced at Ching.

" Let's go," she nodded.

Finally! We raced towards Abyo. I rang the bell..no answer...again...no answer..I narrowed my eyes. If they don't open this door I'm going to break in and- Someone opens the door. It was Bruce.

" Pucca, Ching what brings you here. Over" surprise displayed in his face.

" Abyo?" Ching asks and I impatiently wait.

Calm...steady...I try to relax.

" He's here, sleeping. Is something wrong? Over" he questioned.

I shake my head.

" We just wanted to talk to him and-"

" Garu," I spoke out, his name sounding so right when I said it.

" Garu? Oh are you wondering about him? He used to live here before," Bruce speaks " But he's a ninja and constantly moving. Over."

I noted it all down.

" What else?" I asked.

Bruce sat down.

" There's been a lot of Ninja attacks around lately and I believe Garu is trying to stop whoever is out there," Bruch informed ,"Yup it's very dangerous indeed, but he's trained since he was kid. Over"

I remember the blue ninja from before. Hmm.

" Does he live alone?" I asked.

Bruce nodded.

I suddenly felt sad for him. A ninja and all alone.

" He doesn't talk much, sort of like you Pucca. He usually keeps to himself. In fact he's just about 2 years older than you. He just turned 20,..Over,"

Two years older. He's close to my age then.

" And..?" I prompted.

Bruce tilted his head confuse.

" Don't copy that. Over"

" What's with all the noise dad?-Ching? Pucca? What are you guys doing here?" Abyo asked rubbing his sleepy eyes. I rushed towards him.

" Tell me all about him!" I urged.

Abyo gasped in surprised." You're talking Pucca? Wait...who?"

Ching walked over, giggling " Garu," there I go again , his name on the tip of my tongue.

" Garu? What about him, he's my best friend...-uhm..,"

"And a ninja," Ching added.

"No!" I protest, " Something I don't know,"

" Huh?" Abyo frowns.

" What Pucca means Abyo is straight forward...does he have a girlfriend? Is he constantly around girls? What kind of girls does he like? Where does he live,what kind of girls does he like in particular…so on," Ching nailed it.

That's why she's my best friend.

I gave Ching a grateful smile, nodding eagerly.

" Um..what?" Abyo confused as ever stare back at both of us.

Why this guy...-

" Garu! INFO! START TALKING!" I glared, impatiently.

" Oh! Ah..well..uh...he's not dating anyone, that I know of anyway." Relief washed inside of me." he's not interested in girls,"

I gasped.

Chind did too.

" He's gay!" we both gasped.

A laugh spread through Abyo.

" No. At least I don't think so."

" Then what did you mean?" Ching asked.

" He really doesn't date, he's just too busy being a ninja. He's never dated before that I know of either," Abyo's still was laughing.

I smiled. If he's never dated before then I would be his first. A swift movement was heard. Huh? I turned around and my heart jumped. Could it be? Yes. He rubbed his eyes tired.

" Garu," Abyo called.

He glanced up. An annoyed glance. He eyes then found mine and they went wide.

" Garu,"I spoke out.

He drew back. Alarm crossed his face. He had remembered me. I took a step forward. He took a step back. Too slow. I thought just as I grabbed both his arms and hold him tightly. In the dark it was hard to see him, but here. I saw him better. I take a moment to take him in. Gorgeous! I reach and touch his hair. Black like velvet, smooth like silk. In fact he had like a black costume and a heart in the middle. How cute! His face seemed serious and though they mentioned him as dangerous-pfft- I refused to believe it. He steps back again, worry crossing his face. I smiled. He's even better up close. He was only a couple inches taller than me. His eyes match my own. Beautiful black eyes. I take another step towards him. My mouth just inches from him.

Inches... A gap. A snitch. I leaned in and what I taste is the most amazing wonderful extravagant, unique taste ever! It melts me to the core of my bones and down to my heart. I was in heaven when...-BAM! I fell again. He had moved so abruptly I hadn't had time to catch myself. I glanced up surprised to see Garu all the way across the room. My mouth made a little O, shocked. Garu looked at me as if I were the most dangerous thing in the world. That look is sort of cute on him as well. It's almost wary. Abyo laughs first, then Ching, followed by Bruce. Garu and I looked at them.

Abyo walked over to Garu.

" So you met Garu, Pucca," he says laughing. '' Garu this is Pucca? A.k.a she'll kick your ass if you upset her and she's the nicest/ meanest thing ever!"

I glare momentarily at Abyo, but when I saw Garu eyes come back to me. I smiled and stand up. First impression must count.

" And this is Ching,"

" Hello! So you're the wonderful Garu?,"

Garu curiously stared at the chicken in her head, probably wondering like all of us at first if that thing was real. Yet his eyes came back to me, terrified. Really? Am I that scary?

" I am sorry to interrupt, but Pucca the chefs want to know where you been and want you over there, Over." Bruce mentions coming from the phone.

Oh right! I looked at Garu one more time and nodded in consent as I rush towards my home.

His name is Garu and I think for the first time ever it's definitely love.

~~~~ Writing Pucca Pov is fun. I imagine Pucca being so bright on everything! So vivid and alive. I adore Pucca as you can see. haha. Well what do you guys think? Of course this is only the beginning, I say that for every story I write.
