Chap11- funny ol' world, what gives and not-so-great surprises.

"so she's shezar's little sis, eh?' hitomi asked. She, van, and dilandau were outside, skipping their afternoon classes.

"Yup…" dilandau replied.

"Freaky…, I thought she died or something…" van murmured.

"Wait. You know her?" hitomi said.

"Yeah, I knew her. We were in the same class in school at Astoria. She's only three months younger than Allen. " Van said, gazing off into the distance.

"Were you two friends?" hitomi asked, feeling a pang of jealousy at the thought that van and she knew each other.

"No. we were arch rivals... god I wish she had croaked back there!!!" van complained.

"What did you mean that you thought she died?" dillandau asked.

"Oh! Simple. She was hit by a car. Barely made it out alive…wish she hadn't though." Van replied. He looked at hitomi and said "funny ol' world, ain it?"

"Yeah…funny." Hitomi murmured.

"So, van, 'tomi…what gives?" dillandau asked. The three were still outside.

"With what?" they both said.

"That. Tomi is he the new co-leader, or somethin?" dillandau asked, eyeing van.

"Yes, he is dilly…and yes, we are dating." Hitomi answered dilly's unasked question.

"I really hate it when you read my mind without asking." Dillandau said.

"I know!" hitomi chirped.

"Well van...all I can say is...good luck…and…thanks." Dillandau said.

"Good luck for what?" van asked.

"You don't know hitomi when she's angry, do ya?" dillandau asked.

"HEY!!! WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN DILLANDAU ALBATOU?!?!?" hitomi screamed.

"Shit." Murmured dillandau as he soon began running for his life. "WHAT DID YOU SAY?? HUH? I SAID WHAT DID YOU SAY?!!!!!!!" hitomi screamed. Dillandau started to scream

"HELP!!!!! MAD WOMAN ON THE LOOSE!!!!! HEEEELLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPP!!!!! AHHHHHHH OOF!!" he grunted as hitomi tackled him to the ground.

"Stupid head..." she murmured as she punched him in the face.

"OW! THAT HURT!!! SHEESHH CAN'T TAKE A JOKE THESE DAYS, NO SIRIE, NOPE NOT ONE MEASLY LITTLE PUNY JOKE!!!" dillandau screamed rubbing his injured face.

"Well, you have no one to blame, except yourself." Hitomi said.

"Do you see what I mean van?" dillandau asked.

"Uhh…yeah, I guess I do." Van said unsure of what he said was the right thing to say. Dillandau grinned. Van was going to get it now…. He waited for the tackle, but instead, hitomi just shrugged and said

"Well, if you are kind, then you won't have to see this side of me." Dillandau mouth dropped.

"Dilly, close your mouth. You look like a codfish." Hitomi snapped.

"B-BUT, 'TOMI!!!! AREN'T YA GONNA LIKE SNAP AT HIM OR SOMETHIN'?!?!?" dillandau wailed. Hitomi glared.

"Um hitomi?" van asked softly. Her face instantly turned gentle.

"Yes van?" she smiled.

"Before you chop dill here to pieces, do you think I could ask him something?" van asked. "

Sure, but make it quick."

"Thanks….uh dill?" van addressed dillandau who was still gaping at hitomi. "Dill? Why did you say thanks before?" van asked.

"Huh? Oh that, uh…well do you mind if I tell you some other time buddy, heh…you know- man to man." He said rubbing his neck nervously.

"Well sure…uh hitomi do you mind-"hitomi silenced van.

"Of course I'll leave you two alone for a bit…I'll just be around the corner." She said as she walked around the corner.

"Well, where do I start? Umm... I guess what I meant was that… thanks for, sigh how do I put this…for showing her true love again." Dillandau said.

"Showing her?" van asked confused.

"yeah…ever since that the incident with Midnight- hated that guy from the beginning-, hitomi has been rather cold to almost every guy- well except me. I'm sure you were told why, cuz you know how I was there for her and all that crap, so that's why I'm saying thanks. You and I are the only two guys she trusts, and for a girl like 'tomi to actually love again…you must be really special in her eyes…I only have one request. Promise me that you will be her guardian…promise me that you will never let any harm come to her. And if you don't protect her or if you harm her in ANY WAY…I swear van I'll kill you." Dillandau said seriously, flicking his lighter to prove his point.

"I promise." Van said.

"So what did dilly want van?" hitomi asked van as she and him walked down the street, heading to van's house.

"Oh…uh… nothin'. You know, guy stuff…" van lied.

"I didn't know that asking to protect a girl was a GUY'S thing." hitomi said, eyeing van.

"y-you know?!" van asked surprised.

"Of course, honestly, you really didn't expect me to just walk away and not read your thoughts…sheesh, you guys have no self control what so ever." She answered, rolling her eyes.

"Self control?" van asked, still confused. "

Easy. You could block me, so I couldn't read your thoughts." She whispered.

"Huh?"

"Oh never mind van, c'mon, I feel like baking." She said as he dragged van into the house.

Hitomi was walking down the street. Suddenly she was grabbed by two arms.

"hush.don't even breathe or else you die sweetheart..." a deep voice said as he held hitomi by the throat. Hitomi recognized the voice, but she couldn't put her finger on it. Even though the man's face was right in front of her, she couldn't recognize it. Suddenly, the man's grip loosened and he fell back. Hitomi gasped and looked up to see- BRRRRRRRIIIINNNNNGGG!!!!

"UGH! STUPID ALARM CLOCK!!!" hitomi bellowed as she slammed her hand on the annoying device, silencing it immediately.

"Weird….that man….his voice…the dream….all so strange…" hitomi glanced up at the clock, her eyes became saucers.

"HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!1 I'M GONNA BE LATE!!!!!!!" Hitomi quickly got changed, ran down the stairs and halted at the sight in front of her. There was her mom, snogging a man who hitomi believed was her mother's boyfriend, on the couch.

"OH GOD!!!! MOTHER, HAVE YOU NO SENCE OF PRIDE?!!?!? NOW I CAN NEVER SIT ON THAT COUCH EVER AGAIN!!! GAAAAAAHH… AND THAT ONE WAS MY FAV!!!!" Hitomi screamed at her mother. Her mother quickly got off of the man, her face beet red. "o-oh hitomi sweetie!!! T-this is c-carl… Carl, this is hitomi…my daughter…hitomi this is c-Carl-"

"I know the name ma' you just said it." Hitomi said rolling her eyes.

"Oh! Well I guess I can tell you thatcarlandiareingagged." Her mother finished in one breath. Hitomi stared. Silence. Crickets chirp. Bird flutter.

"YOU WHAT???????????????!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed. Fog horn.

"Now, now hitomi-"

"OH SHUT UP!!! WHAT YOU THINK THAT AFTER ONLY TWO YEARS I AM WILLING GOING TO ACCEPT ANOTHER AS MY FATHER??? WELL FORGET IT!!! GET MARRIED FOR ALL I CARE!! HECK GET MARRIED TOMMORROW!! THEN YOU CAN MOVE TO MIAMII!!! I DON'T CARE, AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED… THIS CARL- BOYFRIEND, FIANCE OF YOURS, WILL NEVER BE APART OF MY FAMILY!!! GOODBYE!" hitomi hollored as she slammed the door when she left.

Hitomi huffed as she entered the school building. Everyone backed off at her steaming form, but alas, some poor soul got in her away… that poor soul was Allen.

"Yo 'tomi!! How about we go out tonight? I mean, you are always hangin' out with that loser van…wouldn't you rather hang out with me? I mean, van is just a- OOOMPH!!!" Allen groaned as he slumped onto the floor. Bad move Allen, bad move... bad enough to annoy hitomi when you can see steam coming out of her ears, but to also insult her boyfriend…ouch… "Just a what allen? Van just a what? An awesome, caring, lovable, hot boyfriend, everything you couldn't be?" hitomi said glaring at him from above. Allen gasped.

"B-boyfriend?"

"no shit Sherlock…yes allen…incase you haven't heard, van and I are dating…now as for you, you just insulted him and if you knew what was good for you, I suggest you run, now. Before I get dilly to burn that blob you call hair…well…whatever is left of it from dilly's last incident with you." hitomi said evily, her eyes an unusual shade of green. Allen quickly moved to get up, but not quick enough. Hitomi grabbed him by the collar and dragged him out of the school and dumped him in a garbage can. She came back and everyone cheered. She just merely glared, and that silenced them.

"YO HITOMI!!!" a voice screamed. A voice that brought a true, rare smile onto her lips.

"Hey van…" she said as he came running up to her.

"I saw what you did…you seem pissed…everythin' alright?" van asked concern written all over his face. Just then Allen came slumping up the steps, covered in trash. Hitomi quickly pulled van into a kiss, making everyone gasp. Hitomi wasn't the one who usually expressed her feelings. Let alone in public. Allen's mouth dropped. Van and hitomi pulled away. "Oh hey Allen…great getup." Van teased as he and hitomi walked off, his hand around her waist.
