Clueless Chapter 10, a hamtaro fanfic

Hey! I told you I'd make up for it. Thanks to Bamy-Kazuma , Airi257 Crystalgurl101 and AyameKira15 for reviewing.

Note: There are two songs in this chapter, you can skip them as I bolded and underlined both. Anyway I hope you like it.

"How could this be happening? I don't know what came over me, but at the same time... it feels like the right thing to do. It must be a way of apologizing, that's it .It's just an apology, nothing more. But as I lead her onto the dance floor why does my heart ache? As I turn around to stare into her eyes, why can't I speak? And when she gently placed her paws around my shoulders why was my fur burning? Can I really... love her? No, I made a promise, to her and myself, and I never break my promises." Cy stared into Pashmina's beautiful eyes and he felt his heart melt.

"There's always a first time for everything." A soft voice echoed in the back of Cy's head

The best thing about tonight's that we're not fighting
Could it be that we have been this way before?
I know you don't think that I am trying
I know you're wearing thin down to the core

But hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you over again
Don't make me change my mind

Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you's impossible to find
You're impossible to find

The words of the song left an imprint on Pashmina's mind, that would last her for the rest of her life. Her first real crush was holding her close, as they slow dance their first dance together. She felt electricity run up her spine from where his arms were wrapped around her waist, and she wished the moment would last forever.

This is not what I intended
I always swore to you I'd never fall apart
You always thought that I was stronger
I may have failed, but I have loved you from the start

Ohh, but hold your breath
Because tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you over again
Don't make me change my mind

Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you's impossible to find
It's impossible

The song started to pick up in pace and the other couples started dancing at a slightly quicker rate, but Pashmina continued her dance, lost in Cy's eyes. His eyes were fixed on her intently, an emotion clearly visible in them, but Pashmina couldn't tell which emotion it was... could it be love?

So breathe in so deep
Breathe me in, I'm yours to keep
And hold on to your words 'cause talk is cheap
And remember me tonight when you're asleep

Because tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you over again
Don't make me change my mind

Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you's impossible to find

Pashmina took a deep breath, and raised her paws to the edge of Cy's bandana, moving it from his mouth to his neck. He stared at her, slightly confused.

Tonight will be the night
That I will fall for you over again
Don't make me change my mind

Or I won't live to see another day
I swear it's true
Because a girl like you's impossible to find
You're impossible to find

Pashmina raised her head and gently pressed her lips to his. In that contact Pashmina felt as if she said more then she could tell him in a million years. Her first kiss... when she was a little girl she had run multiple scenarios over in her head of how it would happen, but this... never came up as a possibility. And Pashmina wouldn't have it any other way.

Just as the song ended, so did their kiss. Pashmina open her eyes in slight disappointment to see Cy standing a few hamsteps away. His paw was over his mouth in surprise, and his face was bright red.

"I-I-I... um I have to... u-um g-get ready... bye!" He squeaked and ran off.

Pashmina stood shock still as he disappeared from her line of sight, then she mentally went over what just happened. A small smile appeared on her face as she realized he hadn't rejected her kiss. She twirled in delight and made her way back to Patch and Bubbles.

This place must be growing on her; she never would've been brave enough to do that back at the clubhouse.

*15 minutes later*

Cy was alone in the center of the stage, his only company a stool (which he was seated on), a microphone and his guitar. His eyes roamed over the audience. They were hard to make out thanks to the bright spotlight shining in his eyes, but he manages to catch a glimpse of Pashmina waving at him. He took a deep breath and started strumming, after a few chords he launched into his song.

Bright, cold silver moon.
Tonight alone in my room.
You were here just yesterday.
Slight turn of the head,
eyes down when you said, I guess I need my life to change.
Seems like something's just not the same.
What could I say?

Pashmina's mouth hung open as she stared at Cy onstage. She had never heard him sing before, and he was fantastic. Out of the corner of her eye Pashmina saw Patch and Bubbles stand up and walk towards the dance floor.

I need a little more luck, than a little bit,
cause every time I get stuck, the words won't fit.
And every time that I try to get tongue tied, I need a little good luck to get me by.
I need a little more help, than a little bit.
Like the perfect one word no one's heard yet.
Cause every time that I try I get tongue tied, I need a little good luck to me by this time.

I stare up at the stars,
I wonder just where you are,
you feel a million miles away.
Was it something I said, or something I never did.
Or was I always in the way.
Can someone tell me what to say, to just make you stay.

Pashmina was still mesmerized by the song when she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned to see a young ham with a sly grin. A green bandana was tied around his head.

"Hey babe, I made a bet with my friends. If I could get a kiss from you they'd pay for my drinks for a week. So how about it?"

Pashmina felt like puking, but instead smiled sweetly and replied.

"No thank you, I'm here with my boy-ham." She waved her hand indicating Cy. The youth looked where she was pointing and laughed.

"Cy's your boy-ham? Why are you lying? There's no way he would go out with you."

Pashmina was indignant and asked. "Why couldn't I be his girl-ham?"

The youth scratched the back of his head. "Well… ever since his first girl-ham was killed he hasn't even looked at another ham-girl."

I know it feels like the end,
Don't want to be here again.
And we could help each other off the ground, so we never fall down again. And what it takes I don't care,
we're gonna make it I swear.
And we could help each other off the ground, so we never fall down again, again.

Pashmina stared at the youth, shock plastered on her face as he continued. "He was really broken up about it. Some punk with a knife tried to jump on his back, but Grace pushed Cy out of the way. Took the knife to the back of her skull." The ham tapped the back of his head as he said this.

"There's only one ham Cy will ever love, and that's Rosie. And she's not even his real sister." The youth continued, causing Pashmina's mouth to sag open slightly.

"If you're really his girl-ham... you two have a lot you need to discuss." The youth said, causing Pashmina to stare at the ground. When she looked up again the youth was gone, and Patch and Bubbles had returned to the table.

Cy had finished his song amidst polite applause, and was now making his way back to the table. As he sat, Patch clapped him heartily on the back.

"Wow, you've gotten better since the last time we saw you." Bubbles complemented him, causing Cy to rub the back of his neck in embarrassment.

Pashmina saw Cy differently now, as an empty husk. No heart, no soul. She suddenly recognized what had been in his eyes earlier. Not love, but regret and pain.

"Pashmina, we have to get up early tomorrow. I'm going to take you home now." Cy snapped her out of her trance and helped her to her feet.

Patch and Bubbles opted to stay, so the two made the walk back in uncomfortable silence. Pashmina was trying desperately to figure out how to ask him, but nothing came to mind.

But when they reached the door to Cy's home it slipped out.

"Who are you?" She blurted, and as Cy turned to face her she continued. "What are you hiding from me?"

Cy stared, confused. "What do you mean?"

"Is Rosie really your sister?"

Cy turned his head so he was looking at the door. "Who told you otherwise?"

"Is she really your sister?"

"Pash---"

"ANSWER THE QUESTION!" Pashmina had no idea why she was yelling at him, but it had the desired effect.

"No... she's not."

"Who is she?"

"I-I-I found her."

Pashmina felt the urge to dig deeper. "And what about Grace, did you just find her too?"

With blinding speed Cy grabbed Pashmina by the shoulders and slammed her hard against the metal door. Tears sprang from her eyes as her head exploded with pain.

"Don't you EVER speak about her like that! I found Rosie abandoned on our doorstep and took her in. I don't know what the hell you think you're doing, but if you think you can exploit me... your sorely mistaken."

Then Cy did the last thing she would've expected him to do.

Ohh.... what's going to happen? Wait and see!

P.S. I've been tipped off that someone is copying my story and just to warn everyone else... this guy has no humility. Watch your stories.
