A bundle of bright silver hair stomped down the hallways of Fortuna high school. This bundle of silver was accompanied by a small body in a white tee shirt, with a loose tan tie around its neck, peach colored slacks and black shoes. His hands deep in his pocket as his silver eyes wandered from room to room looking for a girl. Nero Sparda had been looking for Hristina Hiha Matic since the beginning of school.
'Damn it! where is she?' Nero had yet to hide or hair of Hristina for a three days, it was Wednesday only three days since he last saw her. He hadn't even seen her walking to school or back, she was never home, nor was she in her classes, nor was she even in their apple tree! and even if he would never admit it to himself he was worried.
Thousands of possible thoughts ran through the teens head as he pictured Dante taking Anise away from him. Automatically Nero shook his head, trying to throw those thoughts away before he really started to believe them.
'What have I done?' a sigh escaped his lips, 'I shouldn't have screamed at her like that, maybe Ion really is a good guy...maybe...' once again he shook his head in frustration.
'Hristina! where the hell are you?' suddenly a bundle of chocolate brown locks came into his view, it was Hristina! however she wasn't running towards him, she wasn't even looking at him, his name wasn't the one she was chirping, it was Dante.
Hristina ran towards Dante as he came out of his class and pounced on him like a lion on her cub.
"Dante! where were you? I missed you!" she pouted using her big brown eyes to her greatest ability, by making Dante blush like there was no tomorrow.
"I'm sorry Hristina" the boy sweetly apologized as he wrapped his right arm around the girls waist and kissed her left cheek, making her blush as well. Both could feel the eyes of their peers staring intently at them in shock, after all The half breed Dante was dating the brunette! who couldn't be shocked.
"Are you two dating now Hristina?" a feminine voice came from behind the girl as she turned to see her good friend Trish and her close friend Meta Knight. (In human form)
"Oh Trish! yeah, we are dating!" Hristina beamed brightly as she blushed and held Ion's waist as he held her equally tight.
"Congratulations!" the sky blue eyed blonde smiled and clamped her hands in excitement as her close friend lightly punched Dante's left shoulder,
"Congrats! it's about time you got yourself a girl!" Meta Knight smiled at the two
"Meta Knight! don't be mean to Dante, please!" Hristina pouted once more, only she didn't mean it to be cute. The couple in front of Dante and Hristina were seniors around eighteen and nineteen, yet even though they were they weren't mean like the others, especially like Lady. She was the most popular girl in Fortuna high. Rumor had it was that she wanted Meta Knight to be her close friend, but he turned the girl down because he only wanted one friend.
Of course that didn't set well for the blue eyed light blond. From then on she has always tried to split the two up, but it never worked. Trish and Meta Knight had been together as close friends since their young elementary years.
"Hah it's okay Hristina, he's not being mean to me" Dante smiled affectionately at his girlfriend, with deep love clear in his eyes. Everyone saw.
"Awww!" Trish squealed as she hugged Hristina tightly,
"You were so right to have a crush on him Hristina!"
"Tha...thanks Trish! but I...NEED AIR!" the brunette gasped as her life was being squeezed out of her. The older girl saw this and quickly let go,
"I'm sorry!"
"Hahahhah" both the guys laughed at their girlfriends earning deep glares and embarrassed eyes.
Nero couldn't believe it! it just couldn't be true! there was no way! Hristina, HIS Hristina was dating Dante?
'Wait! what? Hristina...mine? no way!' Nero once again violently shook his head throwing the previous thoughts of the girl away. She was just a friend! a friend from long ago and that was it! yes they understood each other better than anyone else, sure they had shared EVERYTHING with each other, but she WASN'T his, nor was he hers. So why does he feel this way? Why does his heart wrench at the sight of Hristina kissing Dante? why does he want to kill Dante for touching Hristina? why?
'I...need some air fast!' and in a flash he turned away and out the school, towards the apple tree, when he sat on the top branch only then did Nero let his mind truly wander.
'Why didn't she tell me? we...we tell each other everything!' Heh big laugh there, if they told each other everything, then she would have easily told him she was going out with Dante Sparda. But she didn't, she didn't even try to find him! or call him! nothing! she had left him in the dark for him to find out by himself.
'That might have been my fault though' as he remembered their fight on that Saturday. He remembered every word he threw at her, every insult, every hurt he inflicted on her already weak mind at the time,
'I deserve this' he gave himself a humorless smile as he looked up into the bright blue sky, with uncharacteristically sad eyes.
'Hristina...I' suddenly he hear a whimper from the ground, he turned his head down to see who the person who was crying was, only to his shock it was songstress Kyrie.
