Naru made his way to gate eleven. His suitcase rolling on it's wheels behind him. Naru knew what he had done. He knew that he had turned down probably the love of his life. But he refused to accept this. 'I'm the great Oliver Davis. I don't need love.' he told himself.

He swiftly passed through all the travelers on the narrow passageways of the plane. He sat on his assigned seat and meditated about what had just occurred for a while. 'What just happened?' the poor confused narcissist asked himself. 'I must be going insane.' he concluded lamely. Still, for the young lad, it was enough to calm his nerves.

As the flight proceeded, Naru kept replaying Mai's final words in his head: "I love you" zzt "I love you" zzt "I love you" zzt "I love you". 'Did she actually mean that? Did I mean what I said?' the idiot scientist asked him self.

He placed his finger tips on the cool glass window, looking at the birds and clouds pass by. He let out a weary sigh and pressed his forehead upon the window. He clenched his eyes shut, trying to find some piece of mind. Images of Mai in some of her cutest outfits and best moments flashing before his eyes. 'Oh, Mai. What have you done to me?'

~*~ MEANWHILE ~*~

Mai sat in a filthy cab. The driver was most likely drunk and kept sneeking glances at her through the rearview mirror. Mai sighed. She missed him already and it's only been a matter of fifteen minutes. The blush still hadn't left her face. She knew right away she wouldn't be able to pull it off. By 'IT' she meant the rest of her life without Naru. She looked at the buildings flashing by the window. She sighed continuously until her ride came to a stop. Unwillingly, she dragged her feet out of the cab. The ten mile run barely taking affect on her body. The adrenaline was flowing in her veins at the moment, that she hadn't expirienced the searing and throbbing pain in her legs.

She unlocked the door to her flat and headed straight to her room. She slumped down on her bed and layed flat on her belly. Grabbing a near by pillow and stuffing her face into it, she let out an ear splitting scream she had been holding in for half an hour now.

Satisfied and relieved, she slipped away to a dreamless slumber.

(A/N: Short chappie, I know. But I didn't know what else to write. In upcoming chapters Naru will definetly return, but for know, they have to suffer because of their love. If you guys keep reviewing, you will be rewarded greatly with the chappie in which Naru makes up his mind to return. Don't wanna be a spoiler, so I'll just shut-up. ^-^)
