Merp. I don't have anything to say right here. I DO NOT OWN MTNN. That is all.
Chapter 14: Return
I let Sai lead since I didn't remember how we got in. When we reached the outside, it was still early morning; the streets were empty. I walked leisurely through the city with Sai trailing behind.
We chatted freely about the weather and how we thought it would be like in Bermuda. Sai forgets alot of things, it just disappears into the depths of his brain he said.
I frowned in confusion, wondering what in the world cause this. Cancer maybe? But how would that explain the shape-shifting and such? I put it out of my head.
Soon, we came to my plain,quaint house, looking lonely as if it knew I was leaving. I removed the key from under the mat and unlocked the front door.
I flicked on the light, illuminating the room.
I swept my finger on the umbrella stand, frowning at the dust just as I heard Sai complain, "You're room is too clean, Faye-chan. Ooh, is this a duo slingshot?"
I blushed and ran into my room, sliding on the wood floors.
"Give that back!" I squealed, snatching the bra out of his hands.
He titled his head to the side. "Wow Faye-chan, your abilities must be growing. I haven't ever turned that red. Are you okay?"
"Sit." I instructed, pointing to the floor directly outside of my door and trembling with irritation."Or I'm not going to Bermuda with you." He obediently did as asked, thankfully.
"Well, it's not like you have a choice." He pointed out when I turned around to locate my suitcase. His voice sent chills down my spine. It was hard to believe he didn't know what a bra was when he was as cruel as this sometimes.
"That's beside the point. Just because I turned my back did not give you permission to explore. It's my house and my rules. You have to follow them." I sighed. "You can do what ever the hell you want later. But seeing as this is probably the only time that you'll be in my house, be a good-" I turned around to face him but there was nothing but an imprint in the dust.
I blinked.
My mini sermon had been falling on the ears of dust mites.(1)
I sighed aloud. What the hell made me think this boy would listen to me?
"Here, Faye-chan." Sai appeared around the corner and handed me a glass of water, wearing a wicked grin. "I figured you'd want something to drink after talking so much."
"Sai, you are so weird."
"I've been called worse."
I considered this. "Yeah, so have I."
We were silent as I continued putting some things into my small backpack.
"Faye-chan, where are your parents?"
"Hell, if it exists."
"Why?"
"They were assassins. With no motive except for money, that's where they belong."
"Should I go to hell?" He wondered, seemingly absentmindedly.
Silence and confusion snatched my voice away for a bit. "Let's cross that bridge when we get there, Sai..."
(1) Do dust mites even have ears?
Aww! sad ending to this one i guess. I imagined Sai as a puppy when I wrote his last line there. :3 I need to draw SOOO much for this fic!
