K, now you shall read.

Chapter 11

Lucia sat outside her room like an obedient puppy. The door was locked and she hadn't slept in her bed for the past couple of days. Masamune walked out of his room about to leave for work and he noticed the girl sitting on the ground.

"Uh, why are you sitting on the floor?" Takano asked.

Lucia looked at him with watery eyes and said "Anne's mad at me."

"What happened?" Masamune asked.

Lucia stood up and said "She is mad that I didn't tell her about this friend I had that Melissa said was my boyfriend, but he wasn't."

Takano hugged the girl and said "Just let her cool off, she won't stay mad at you forever."

"It feels like it." Lucia said.

Takano kissed her head and said "I'm sure that everything will turn out fine. Now, I need to go to work, Ritsu already left. Be good."

"Okay." Lucia said as Masamune left.

The teen sat back down on the ground, grabbed her crotched Tinkle doll, and hugged it.

"Anne? Are you still mad?" Lucia asked.

"I'M FUCKING PISSED! CAN YOU LEAVE ME ALONE!" Anne screamed.

"But, I love you." Lucia said.

"JUST GO TO YOUR "BOYFRIEND" AND BE WITH HIM!" Anne yelled. "I DON'T CARE WHERE HE IS, JUST GO FIND HIM OR WHATEVER!"

"He is dead." Lucia said.

Anne slowly opened the door and asked "Whaddya mean he is dead?"

"I mean that he died about a year ago." Lucia said. "Can I just explain everything?"

Anne thought about it and said "Fine, but make it quick."

Lucia walked into her room and sat on the bed. Anne sat next to her.

"Okay, so who was this guy?" Anne asked.

Lucia then started to explain. "I met him when I was 12."

Flashback

A 12 year old girl looked through bookshelves in the school library. She was trying to find just the right book to read.

"I'm like the only one in this library." She said to herself. "Why can't I at least find a friend that is into books."

She kept searching through the books and then someone caught her eye. There was a 12 year old boy sitting at a table and reading a book. He had blondish-brown hair in a bowl haircut style, he had brown eyes, and white skin.

"What the-" She thought. "Is there an alien in the library, because I have never seen a guy that reads books that long?"

She walked over and sat next to him and started reading a book. She kept looking over to him. When he noticed he blushed a bright red.

"Um, sorry to ask this, but are you an alien?" She asked.

"No, I am just a guy from London." He said with a British accent.

"Oh, okay." She said. "By the way, I like your accent."

"Thank you." He said while he blushed. "What is your name?"

"My name is Lucia." She answered. "What's yours?"

"I am Tommy." He said.

From that day on, Lucia and Tommy did everything together and became best friends.

One day, Tommy noticed a picture frame that Lucia had on her dresser. 2 little girls were reading a book, one had black hair, brown eyes, and tan skin. The other had brown hair, hazel eyes, and white skin with freckles.

He asked "Lucia, who are those girls in the picture?"

"Oh, the one with the black hair is me." Lucia said. "And the other one is my..." She paused for a moment. "First love."

"You were in love with a girl?" Tommy asked.

"Yeah, are you disgusted?" Lucia asked.

"No, it's just that, I wanted to say th-that..." Tommy paused. "I'm i-in l-love with y-you."

Lucia looked at him and said "I'm flattered, but I'm sorry. I'm still in love with Anne."

"I understand." Tommy said sadly.

Lucia hugged him and said "I still care about you a lot, though."

Tommy hugged her back.

End of Flashback

Anne sat there in shock and asked "Y-you r-rejected him b-because of m-me?"

"Yeah." Lucia said.

"Okay, I understand now how you were just friends and what happened, but how did he die?" Anne asked.

Lucia stared down at the floor sadly.

"I-if you d-don't want to talk about it, then you don't have to." Anne said.

"No, you deserve to know." Lucia said and then started explaining.

Flashback

Lucia was sitting with Tommy in his apartment.

"So, where is your aunt?" Lucia asked.

"Oh, she went to run some errands." Tommy said.

Suddenly, a small flame was starting.

"Uh oh, fire." Tommy said and then threw water at it. "I think I got it."

Then, another small flame appeared, but it spread throughout the whole apartment and soon everything was covered in flames.

Lucia started coughing and so did Tommy. They heard a fire truck outside the window and the firemen were screaming "JUMP! WE'LL CATCH YOU!"

"It's unsafe for both of us to jump, the life net is too small." Tommy said. "You should jump."

"No! I won't leave you!" Lucia screamed.

"You still have to find that girl you're in love with." Tommy said. "Me, I just want to see the girl I love live."

"Tommy..." Lucia couldn't finish her sentence. Then, Tommy managed to get her out through the window and she fell a long fall onto the life net.

Then, there was a big explosion and the building erupted into more flames.

An hour later, the firemen had said that they had gotten out all of the survivors, but Lucia did not see Tommy. She walked up to a fireman and asked "Are you sure that there is no one else?"

"Yeah, we got out all the survivors." He said.

Lucia walked away sadly from the scene. She started crying and said to herself "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have let you die."

End of Flashback

"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry. I didn't know." Anne said.

"It's fine. At least I did what he wanted me to do." Lucia said.

"What?" Anne asked.

"I found you." Lucia said.

Anne blushed and said "I'm sorry. I overreacted and I shouldn't have kicked you out of the room."

"It's okay." Lucia said. "Plus, all that gave me a reason to do this." Lucia stood up and grabbed a small box from her drawer and hid it behind her back. Then, she sat next to Anne again.

"Anne, I never stopped loving you for all of the years you were gone." Lucia started. "And I never ever want to lose you again. So..." Lucia took the box from behind her and opened it, which revealed a golden ring with an emerald on it. "Will you be with me forever?"

"U-uh, I-I" Anne was at a loss for words.

"Look, I don't know if this would count as a proposal because we are to young to get married at the moment, which sucks." Lucia started. "But, I just want to make sure that you would at least consider staying with me."

"Lucia..." Anne started. "I will stay with you forever."

Lucia slid the ring onto her finger and said "I promised myself that I would give this to you when I found you again. I bought it about 8 years ago."

"I'm sorry I made you wait." Anne said hugging the older girl.

"It's okay." Lucia said. "And if you ever want me to do anything to reassure you, don't hesitate to ask."

"Well, there is one thing." Anne said.

"What is it?" Lucia asked.

Cliffhanger! You guys probably hate me. But, I promise that the wait will be worth it.
