{Sora}

"Ugh..." I shivered a little because this eerie feeling just crept on me as I was eating the food Daddy made for me. He didn't let uncle Kaien make me dinner because he was afraid I might get food poisoning.

Is someone talking about me?

"Hey Sora is everything alright?" Daddy asked worried and I nodded while eating my burger. I was enjoying talking to Daddy and uncle Kaien, until Yuki along with Zero came in. Zero was honestly surprised to see me, I was going to say hi, but all that I could think about was him and that clueless idiot next to him.

He forgot about you...

Before Zero could say anything to me I got up and said bye to Daddy and uncle Kaien and walked pass Zero and Yuki.

He forgot about you...

"Sora wait!" Zero called as he ran after me. I ignored him and kept walking.

He forgot about you... I walked faster, but so did he.

"Sora! Are you really just going to ignore me?!"

He forgot about you... I started to run, but he was catching up easily.

"Sora!"

He forgot about you... I made to the gate and when I opened it he slammed it shut.

"Sor-"

"What?! What the hell do you want Kiryu?!" Zero gave me a hurt expression then hugged me, which startled me enough for me to push away from me. But he just hugged me again. I blushed and return hug, which made him hold me tighter.

"I'm sorry I didn't contact you Sora-I just-I'm just a coward. I couldn't bring myself to contact you after what happened."

"It's-"

"Zero!" Yuki was behind Zero and he released me and told me to wait a moment so he could see what she wanted. Didn't I tell you he forgot about you, your not the main girl in his life...

I opened the gate and ran out of the school and ignored Zero calling my name. I snuck back into my room and put ointment on my arms and legs then went to bed.

Or at least tried.

You can't ignore me darling...

Go away.

Why do you continue to put yourself through this heartache...

Because I love him.

This love is unrequited...

Yo-You don't know he could-

Be hiding his feelings? No love he doesn't have feelings for you...And to be honest you don't need his love or him...

Maybe your right.

No maybe I am right...Sora look at me...

I opened my eyes and saw my inner voice right in front of me. She really didn't change her appearance. She still look like a beautiful woman in her early thirties with long pink curly hair, pink eyes, she was curvy, and had pale skin. My inner voice grabbed my chin so I couldn't move my head.

Tomorrow night I want to you to ask Zero what are his feelings towards you... if he doesn't have feelings for you. I want you to burn every last memory you have of him...destroy it and move on...


(Next Night)

Mom found out I went to see Daddy and she made me do six more hours of practice to burn off the fat I gained from the dinner Daddy made me. The performance is tomorrow and my body can't take it anymore. I feel like I'm going to crash at any moment. I was so sore that Yogi had to carry me to my room, but I asked him if he could carry me to True Cross Academy.

"Sora you really don't look good. I think you should tell your mother you can't preform tomorrow night."

"She won't listen. She'll say that I'm letting Tsukumo steal the spotlight."

"But Sora look at you! You have silk burns all over your body, your exhausted,and your hungry!"

"I'll be fine Yogi. Just take me to Zero and I will get a good night's rest, okay Onii-sama?"

Yogi sighed and took me to True Cross. It didn't take us long to find Zero and what do you know the idiot was with him; I asked him if I could speak to him in private. I made sure to glare at Yuki when I said private, which made her flinch a little bit.

Zero and I went to the fountain and I sat down and took a deep breath. It's now or never.

"Zero what are your feelings towards me?" Zero was taken back by this question and looked a bit uncomfortable.

"What?"

"When you look at me what do you see? A friend, crush, girlfriend, or sister?"

"...I see you as a friend." My eyes widened and my bangs covered my eyes. So I wasted ten years of my life in love with this jerk to only find out he doesn't even love me the same way. I quickly got up was about to leave when Zero grabbed my hand.

"Sora look I-You smell good."

"What are you talking about?"

I gasped when I saw Zero's eyes glowing red and he had fangs. I knew Zero was an ex-human, but Daddy said he was getting better why is acting like this? Zero pinned me down to the ground, which caused pain to flow through my body. I screamed when Zero licked my neck, he was about to bite me until Daddy came out of nowhere and shot Zero with a tranquilize. An unconscious Zero fell on me crushing my frail body. Just looking at him made me sick so I harshly pushed him off me and ran to Yogi. Daddy asked if I was alright and I nodded but my back was turned to him so he couldn't see my appearance I didn't want to him to worry about my health, but I did tell him to come to my performance tomorrow.


"It's about time you let that jerk go!" Kiichi laughed as she threw pictures of Zero in the fire. Tsukumo and Gareki burned trinkets he gave me while Iva and Yogi hugged me telling me there are many guys out there for me. Jiki said he was single and would love to go out with me, but Iva kicked him in his face and called him a pedophile.

I guess it's for the best...


(Performance night)

"Sora get up! Your on in 2 minutes!"

My mother yelled and was pulling me towards the curtains. "Mom I really don't feel good-"

"Suck it up! You can't let that Tsukumo tart steal your spotlight!"

"But I really don't feel good...My body really hurts-" My mother ignored me and pushed me through the curtains. I forced on a smile walked over to the silk.

Your going to get hurt Sora don't do this...

I have no choice.

When the music started I started climb the silk and wrapped it around my torso. I nearly screamed when I had to dangle from it then try to do another trick from that position. I continued my act, but as the song was half way done I couldn't do it anymore. My body wouldn't obey me anymore and all I could remember was hearing Daddy call my name and everything went black.
