Chapter 6

Yamato's eyes widened when Mimi was about to fall. He caught her with his hands, embracing her with his movements. She was wearing a sweet- smelling perfume, like flowers and the sea. It was like time froze for just a second for both Yamato and Mimi. He just stared into her bellflower eyes as he was holding her. But, time moved on and Yamato knew he had to bring her someplace where they could check up on Mimi.

She was so beautiful. He still remembered her after all these lonely years. His family knew of his little puppy love between him, but they frowned on it. He was destined for great things his family had quoted. He grew bitter of his family day after day. What did adults knew anyways? They had just threw off his teeny love affair like a fly off a neck. He had fumed and fumed for days but he knew that there was nothing he could say or do to change it. So, he decided to close up his heart and act coldly towards other people. It didn't matter to him anyhow, nothing did anymore.

Yes, he still went out with girls, but it was pointless to him. His dreams were haunted of a little girl staring goggle-eyed at him as he kissed her. He seemed cold to the world, yet, in reality, he was a boy lost alone in the great, big, cold world. Yamato felt like he had to put up a brave front or else, the world would just scoop him up and destroy him.

As he slowly laid her on his seat of his car, Mimi came to consciousness. Mimi rubbed her eyes and took in her surroundings. She said groggily, "Where are we? I thought we were at the bar."

"Yea, and you almost fell to the ground.luckily, you had me to catch you."

Was that a hint of a blush she had catch there? Mimi shook her head for a bit. She must be still groggy from the blackout. She couldn't get that horrible sight of that.that image.She couldn't believe them! Leave them for a while and see what they could do to your heart. Yamato arched his eyebrows and asked, "Are you alright? You seem mad or something."

There it was again. He sounded concerned for her? She needed to rest down for a while. "Nothing's wrong with me, Yama-chan."

Her words drifted off as she fell asleep. Yamato mused over her words that she called him the nickname that she had called him as a little girl. Looking at her as he drove over the highway, he brushed a tendril escaping from her hair. She looked like an angel when she slept. It was a cliché to say that, but she truly did. Her pale skin glowed under the dim lights of the tunnel that they were going under. Her eyes fluttered sometimes, but for the rest, she slept soundly. Yamato stretched his arm to open the radio. The radio man said in a very smooth, almost jazzy voice, "Hey, what's up all ya'll in Japan. We'll have J-Pop all day tomorrow. But, right now, it's the ever-lovely J. Lo.Ain't it funny"

It seemed to be like the perfect thing for you and me

It's so ironic you're what I had pictured you to be

But there are facts in our lives

We can never change

Just tell me that you understand and you feel the same

This perfect romance that I've created in my mind

I'd live a thousand lives

Each one with you right by my side

But yet we find ourselves in a less than perfect circumstance

And so it seems like we'll never have the chance

They arrived at his lofty apartment building. It was expensive, one could tell by the fancy cars in the parking lot. The apartment building was a white stucco brick building and had a black-gray roof. Yamato occasionally grunted as he made his way up to his apartment. His apartment was ten stories up.

Someone was riding in the elevator with him as he walked in and pushed the button for the tenth story. The man looked puzzling at Yamato and Mimi. Yamato nervously chuckled and made a rather weird explanation for his holding Mimi. "Oh, you know, the typical wedding tradition. We got married today."

The man nodded as if he knew what Yamato was talking about. The lack of the wedding bands had left much to imagination of the man as he concluded his own thoughts on the mysterious lady in the hands of a stranger. Yamato breathed a breath of relief as his floor came out. Juggling between Mimi and his keys, Yamato struggled to open his door. Mimi stirred in her sleep, putting her head against Yama's chest.

Yamato felt immensely powerful at that moment, as if he could take the hole world on at that moment. He placed the sleeping angel on his bed and pondered for a few seconds. He never could forget about that girl in his dreams at the beach. She was named Mimi, too. Could she be the little girl from his dreams?

So many times he had been afraid to open himself up because he believed that love always ended in heartache. He was tired of love, it hurt him as if someone took a dagger and stabbed him. He was shy, kind, introverted in a way, yet.he had never shown those feelings to anyone. He couldn't, he already shut himself so much. But, could this girl change him?

I just believe that somehow love wasn't meant for me

Life can be cruel in a way that I can't explain

And I don't think that I could face it all again

I barely know you but somehow I know what you're about

A deeper love I've found in you

And I no longer doubt

You've touched my heart and it altered every plan I've made

And now I feel that I don't have to be afraid

Mimi woke up and found herself in a strange room, a strange bed. Where was she? So many times she had blacked out today that she found that she wasn't surprised. Somehow.this room.made her feel safe. Cloaked in darkness, there was something that struck Mimi as a secure room. She got up and looked at her surroundings. The bedroom was monochromatic with its dark hues. Even the walls were covered in a blood-red tone.

There was a picture on a mantle next to the fireplace. It was gilded at the edges with a touch of silver and gold. Mimi approached it and lifted it off the mantle.

I locked away my heart

But you just set it free

Emotions I felt

Held me back from what my life should be

I pushed you far away

And yet you stayed with me

I guess this means

That you and me were meant to be

It was a picture of a young blond boy and her as a child. Her brain screamed, "Nani!?"
