Hurt By One, Healed By Another

Chapter 4: Getting Along!

Hao entered the mansion that appeared before him. He checked up on the girl that was sleeping peacefully on the couch. Seeing her could only make him wonder.

'Why had she chosen to come back with me? Of all the people she could have stayed with… why me? Why did she get off the plane anyway?'

FLASH BACK

Anna looked back at Hao; then disappeared onto the plane. He was walking away when he heard a voice call his name and turned to see Anna, her eyes red and watery. He was startled when she gripped his cloak.

"…Please…" she said, her voice in a soft whisper, "Please can I stay- it will be only for a few days, it's just so I can sort myself out. I-I can't face the family, not yet."

Hao's eyes soften, (if ya no what I mean) and he puts his arm round Anna and takes her suitcase off of her. "I said you would didn't I? Besides, it will give you time to decide if this is what you really want."

With Anna under his arm, the two walked through the crowd, and headed for 'home'.

END OF FLASH BACK

Hao looked at the suitcase; then drags it upstairs.

A few hours passed and Anna woke up. As Hao was walking past the couch, he realized her eyes were open. Anna sat up, her hair a bit of a mess, but she didn't care.

"Hey, have a nice-"

"Were are my things?" she demanded, glaring at Hao.

"Oh, I unpacked the-"

Hao winced as Anna left a red mark on his cheek.

"Who gave you permission to touch my things!"

Hao just smirked at her. "You know, you should really watch that temper of yours." Anna just glared at him.

"Funny, I didn't see Yoh in any of the photo's you have."

"…I know…"

Hao felt a stab of guilt as a tear rolled down Anna's cheek. He captured it with his finger and Anna's eyes widen in surprise as he moves forward, inches away from her face. She starts to get confused as her heart beets faster and faster. Then he whispered something in her ear, and she practically growls at him. She clenched her hand into a tight fist and tried to strike him, but he dodged her punch and laughed.

Anna stomped upstairs and Hao shouted after her.

"Second door on the right!"

Hao hears the door slam shut and chuckles to himself, satisfied with his victory.
