"Talking"

'Thinking'

~ 4 months old ~

I stared at the door to Byakuran's room quietly. How Melody had even managed to drag me with her was the biggest question to everyone who knew me. I mean, I always was either sleeping, or attempting to ignore everyone and sleep.

Melody made a knocking motion with her hand and pointed at the door. I rolled my eyes and crawled closer so that I actually could reach the door. Then, I placed my knuckles against said door and knocked a few times.

We both crawled back and waited. It didn't take long for Byakuran to open the door and look down at us. To tell the truth, it made me feel powerless when Byakuran looked down at us. It didn't exactly sit well with me either since I used to be the older sister and controlled my brother to do practically whatever I wanted.

"Aura? Melody? Why aren't you with papa and mama?" Byakuran asked, picking us both up at the same times. I had recently found out that he was 6 years old, making him a very strong child if he could carry us both at once.

Melody hugged Byakuran tightly. I simply watched the action before leaning against Byakuran in an attempt to sleep. Crawling through an entire mansion just to find someone was not as easy as you think, especially if the mansion was a 1000x bigger than you.

"Aura, you need to stop sleeping all the time," Byakuran sighed as he laid me down on his bed. "Melody, you need to stop dragging your sister around." I could imagine the pout on Melody's face at that moment.

"Bambine?" a male voice questioned. I didn't even bother looking to know who it was.

Jason, age 8, and had golden brown hair along with brown eyes. He was slightly taller than Byakuran and was a really loyal friend. Though, he wasn't so loyal that he stocked Byakuran or anything (thank god for that).

"Oh, I didn't tell you. They were born over the summer. This is Melody," I heard the gurgling sound of a certain sister of mine, "and this is Aura." I gave a annoyed cry when Byakuran picked me up off his comfortable bed. "She really likes sleeping for some reason."

'I'm lazy, now put me down,' I thought, pushing away from Byakuran.

"Wow! They're so cute!" a female voice said. I assumed it was Byakuran's other friend, what's her name? I didn't exactly remember. All I knew about her was that she was also 6 years old and had blonde hair along with blue eyes. "Can I hold one?"

'No. I swear to god Byakuran if you don't lay me down in that fluffy bed of yours I will murder you!' I thought, innerly crying as I blinked up at the female that was now holding me. 'Someone is going to lose their bag of marshmallows from their closet.'

"Wow! She's so adorable! I wish I had a sorella! You're so lucky!" the female said, handing me back to Byakuran. I glared at him and pointed to the bed.

"So you came all the way here to sleep?" Byakuran asked me. I answered his question by poking his eye and pointing to the bed again. "Okay! Okay! I'll let you sleep!"

I gave a satisfied smile as I snuggled into Byakuran's pillows.

~ 8 months old ~

I snorted as I watched my sister attempt to stand up for what must've been the 1000th time that day. She turned and glared before pointing at me, which translated to "bitch, why don't you try and stand up"?

I groaned and stood up before walking over to her. The surprised look on her face made a smug smirk appear on her face.

That must've really annoyed my sister 'cause she grabbed my hand and forced me to pull her up so that she was standing beside me. I was about to push her down for using me as a cane when a maid saw us and squealed.

"Oh my gosh! That's so utterly adorable! Melody and Aura are standing a walking together!" she yelled and ran off. I assumed immediately that she was going to find our parents. That also meant we needed to leave if we didn't want to be bombarded with cameras snapping.

Of course, running away wasn't the best option for the both of us since our legs were still undeveloped. It also seemed to make our parents grin and take more pictures as we attempted to waddle awkwardly away.

"Papa, mama, I think you should leave them alone," Byakuran said from off to the side. I walked up to him and leaned against his back.

'You didn't help us, but I'll forgive you since you're being my pillow right now.'

~ 1 years old ~

"Happy birthday!"

I blinked at the group of people in front of me before crawling onto the couch and laying down on it. I could practically feel the weird looks that were on me. Well, it didn't matter as long as I got my sleep anyways.

"Aura, sweetie, it's your birthday! Come celebrate with us!" my mother said, picking me up. I pouted and looked away from her face. "Don't make that look."

'I don't like sweets. Now put me down on the couch and allow me to recharge my batteries even though I've been sleeping this entire time.'

"Mama, can I hold Aura?" Byakuran asked. My mother nodded and passed me down to Byakuran who was smiling at me. "Happy birthday Aura. We should celebrate with Melody and the family. You can only turn 1 once in a lifetime."

'Yeah? Well, I've done it twice,' I thought, giving in to Byakuran. I didn't know why, I just always let Byakuran win. I swore that one day it would affect our relationship in the future, but I didn't care for now.

~ 1 year 3 months ~

"Erghaga. Pamerga. Apapamana."

I rolled my eyes as I watched Melody tried to speak with our parents cooing. Byakuran was watching off to the side with an excited look on his face. If I wasn't his younger sister or a baby, I would've thought it was cute.

"Come on Melody! Say mama! Say mama," my mother cheering, holding a couple bills in her hand. My father was also holding bills, so I assumed they were betting.

'Wow, they really are carefree parents. I mean, betting in front of children and a baby? Might as well bring them to a casino,' I thought, laying my head on my pillow again.

"Byakuran!" I whined, stretching my arms out to my brother. All of their mouths dropped (except for Byakuran because he was really happy and picked me up).

From the corner of my eye, I saw Melody puff her cheeks. She loved attention, which was strange 'cause in our old lives, she hated having any attention at all.

"Fratello!" Melody yelled and also stretched her arms to Byakuran, whom gladly picked her up into his strangely strong arms as well.

"Well, now we know who Melody and Aura love more," my mother laughed cheerfully. My father on the other hand was the exact opposite, and had a pout on his face that could match Melody's.

"Byakuran," he said lowly, "why don't you pass papa Melody and Aura so I can make them- *ahem* teach them how to say papa next?"

'That was the worst cover up I've seen in my life… Which was only 1 year and a few months now that I think about it.'

"No way! You can't be trusted with my sorellina right now!" Byakuran exclaimed, running out of the room with us in his arms.

Once again, I was amazed at the supernatural strength Byakuran had as he managed to run away with us in his arms for the rest of the day. Though, I had to give my father some credit too since he also ran for practically the entire day.

'I made a huge mistake when I said "Byakuran" didn't I?'

~ 1 year 7 months ~

"Why do I bother?" I sighed as Melody and I ran away from Byakuran.

It turned out that Melody wasn't really Selena, and that it was all my imagination. Melody simply acted like Selena for the most part, but when I asked about KHR, she gave me a look like I was the stupidest person on the planet. That was also when I discovered that Melody was a genius, and that was how she was so smart.

"You bother because I make you," Melody replied, smiling at me. Though she wasn't my best friend, I still cared for her. She was now my only connection to my previous life, after all but it's also because she's now my sister.

'Sometimes, you have to let go of the past in order to move on to the future. Just like how Byakuran should forget that I stole his marshmallows and leave us alone so I can go back to sleeping.'

"Melody! Aura! Come back here!" Byakuran yelled, his voice sounding closer than before. Of course, that was to be expected since he was older, taller, and had more physically built muscles than we did.

"No!" Melody yelled back childishly and leaped over the chair that was conveniently holding open a door that we did not purposely leave open.

When we reached outside, Melody looked around in what I assumed was to find a way for us to get away. I supposed that my sister didn't think that we would get that far ahead, and had no idea what to do next.

"Come on," I said, pulling her along with me into the garden hedge maze. The tall hedges made it feel like I was in a slender game. The feeling of Melody gripping my hand tightly actually made me try to get us to the middle of the maze.

"I think we lost him," Melody said, looking behind us. "Teehee, I didn't think you would actually go into his room to steal his bag of marshmallows Aura," she giggled.

"It's revenge," I replied, yawning and sitting down on the floor. (Please refer to when they were both 4 months old if you do not understand.)

"Still, I can't believe how fit you are when all you do is sleep," Melody said, opening the bag of marshmallows we obtained. "Want one?" she asked, showing the opening of the bag to me. I shook my head and shoved the bag away.

"I hate sweets, and you know it," I muttered, turning my head away. "Ugh, even the smell of it makes me sick. If you're going to eat it, eat it away from me."

"MELODY! AURA!"

We both stood up, only to be caught in Byakuran's arms.

The first thing I did was lean my head and fall asleep on Byakuran's shoulders. Actually, that was technically the last thing I did too, so… oh well.
