The gangsta of love - I guess. I personally want to see him squirm, but I can't think of too good a way to write that so...

I saw Cattleya today-I was starting to worry she was dead. She wouldn't say anything about what had happened and grilled me about Demon Card. She looked really tense. I admitted to being a member, but I didn't give her my position. I said I was in intelligence, so I gathered info but I didn't have a lot of influence. She got all flushed and stuttered a little before asking if I'd agreed to go with her to try and get information on the Rave Master, so I pointed out that I hadn't asked her about Haru since finding out they were related. She said I must have been listening to see if she let anything slip, and I had no way to prove I wasn't doing that. I asked her if she was coming back to the hotel but she said she had to get back to work. I asked if she had a place to stay and she said yes-but she wasn't paying for it so she was continuing to pay for my room. I thanked her since I didn't know what else to do.
She kept glancing over her shoulder. I looked, but couldn't see anything. I didn't follow her. She seemed safe, and she was clearly not happy with me.
So Cattleya's made at me again…but at least she's safe, right?

I got Haru to wait in an ice cream shop when I saw Lucia walking past it (I had to agree to treat him when he found out I'd been saving up). I figured if I screamed from there Haru would have enough time to go out and get me. Haru'd managed to beat that man made of metal, and his stories since sounded even more impressive, so I wasn't to scared so long as he was around.
Lucia didn't seem the slightest bit suspicious that I knew. Well, not until I started questioning him and he admitted to being in Demon Card, at which point if he was only suspicious than that fall had to have damaged his head. He answer my questions with a varying degree of honesty. He said that he was in Demon Card, and no he hadn't just been recruited as a foot soldier. He lied and told me his job was to gather information. I went along with it and pretended to think he'd only gotten close to me because of Haru-really I think it's because I was the person who kept him from being too bored while he was recovering and he had nothing better to do than tag along.
I was a little touched when Lucia asked me if I was going to go back to the hotel. I told him I wasn't but I was paying for his room. I thought he looked guilty, but since this is Lucia I'm talking about I must have just imagined it. In between my questions about his involvement in Demon Card and how horrible a person he was (I asked him if he'd killed, he said yes) Lucia would ask me if I wasn't overworked or say he could pay the fee for the room himself so I wouldn't have to work extra hard. God, how can you casually talk about having taken lives while trying to help a girl as if you have a crush on her? Lucia must be some sort of psychopath. A psychopath who was offering to work a part time job rather than run Demon Card so I wouldn't have to work quite as much.
I really need to tell Haru about him, but an increasingly large part of me doesn't want to.
I also asked Lucia just a tiny bit about what he'd been up to, so I didn't sound like a total bitch. He said he's mostly been taking short walks to see if it would help his leg. He can't try and kill Haru with a bad leg, can he? Oh, but I suppose anyone would want both their likes to work just fine. I'd hate having to walk with a cane too.
Maybe I can find some time between work and being dragged around by Haru to meet up with him. I have a pretty good I idea of where he'd be walking.
While I'm at it, maybe I could stick my hand in a garbage disposal.

Haru's getting really glum. He was cheerful for the past few days since his sister came back, but all of a sudden she got really into hanging out alone at this one park and gets really uptight if offers to go with her. Musica suggested that she had a boyfriend she was secretly meeting, and Shuda got all up in arms about that. He and Haru are planning to spy on her today. I want to warn her, but I'm also really curious about who she's dating.
Musica's coming over now. He wants to know what I'm doing. I'll tell him I

Musica is such a jerk! He totally stole my diary! That has all my deepest darkest feelings from around when I first came to with amnesia! Musica, you idiot! I'd go whine about it but no one will notice with the fit Cattleya's throwing. She caught Haru sneaking around in some bush behind her and scolded him for a really long time, then completely blew up on Shuda about how he was such a ***** and how he told everyone that they ******. He's off sulking right now, and everyone's afraid to talk to her.
I'd be mad too if… ah… Haru and I got… that far, and then he left for a little while and everyone else knew when he came back.
They're still going to stalk her again. She left right after screaming at them, so they didn't get to see who she was meeting. I want to know too.

Haru and Shuda were following me! It's a good thing I hadn't actually run into Lucia yet, who knows how long they were at it. I have to be more careful now. I went into mother mode and scolded Haru about how it was wrong to watch people without them knowing and blah blah blah. I've never had a real chance to mother Shuda, so instead I told him off for telling everyone I gave him my virginity. He told everyone. He was giving me this "You don't understand, I didn't tell" thing, but how else would they know? That jerk.
I'm gonna go. I have today off, so I'll be spending a lot of time at the park today. I hope I'll run into Lucia this time. I have some things I want to tell him.
OXXXXXO
Rune Caster: I have no idea where I'm going with this.
