Chapter four: The Festival

Kaito stood on the beach staring at the come and go of the waves. He sighed as the memory of a certain blue-eyed princess came to mind. He was ready for the festival. He wore a open white shirt and black jeans, and a red tee. He sat down. "I wonder if this festival would turn out for the best." He said.

He heard sudden giggles and turned around abruptly. In the distance, he saw three figures. He recognized them instantly. There was Hanon, Lucia, and Rina. He got up and waited for them to come within earshot. "Lucia!" he said, waving them over.

He heard a sudden splash and then from behind a boulder came Kyo, he was dressed in something similar to Kaito. They stared at each other for a while and then Kyo began to laugh. Lucia ran up to them. "Kaito! Kyo!" She said.

Kaito smirked in satisfaction, 'She said my name first. The battle may be won, Kyo, but the war is not over.'

"Kaito-kun!"

He turned around to see Sayo smiling at him. She looked beautiful, she took Kaito's arm and shot a look of warning at Lucia. Lucia couldn't help but gulp when she saw that. The festival was beautiful, just as Lucia imagined. She felt at the pit of her stomach, that Kaito would never fall for the human her. She sighed and then Kyo said, "You really love him, don't you?"

He took her by surprise but she nodded all the same. "Well, tonight, let's hang out as friends, and tomorrow, he'll be pining for you." He winked.

She nodded with a smile.

Kaito walked through the festival with Sayo on his arm while she was rambling on about this kid who was hitting on her. He was annoyed. Wasn't this supposed to be a double date? "Look, mommy, fireworks!" he heard a kid exclaim.

He looked up. This was great. Near the beach, fireworks, summer breeze. It was almost perfect. Almost. If only…if only….he sighed and thought, 'If only it were Lucia.'

'Lucia! That's it! I know it! She and Kyo are just friends! (A/N For a moment there…I wanted to make him know she's a mermaid but….he's too friggen dense to figure that out on his own.)'

"Kaito-kun! Kaito-kun! Are you even listening to me?" He heard Sayo say.

"No, I wasn't." He said, "Could you repeat that?"

"Argh! I'm out of here! Why don't you go find your Lucia?!"

"Thanks, I will."

And then he ran off.

A/N well that's it for chappie four.
