Chapter 1: Reminiscence
Disclaimer: Hmm... nope, looks like I don't own anybody. Except the...no, I don't own them either!! Damn!
Kotou: Hey! Looks like I'm back again. I quit Tekken Muyo; it's not gunna work! So, this fic is for Xiaoyin and J/H fans!! I hope you all like it!! ^__^ Ok, It wont start out that way, but trust me, It will end up that way! Usually I wouldn't be so nice, but I know there are some J/H fans somewhere out there, so this is for them too! I'm going to explain this really fast! When Julia and Xiaoyu fall asleep, that's when the story actually starts. Before that, it's the prologue, after they wake up, it's the epilogue. Get it? The story is just a dream reminiscence leading up to the outcome.
Julia Chang sat on the bench at the park outside of the hospital. She held a bouquet of flowers in her hand and looked up at the third floor window, the ICU floor. She felt a sharp and sudden pain. She hoped deep in her heart that things would turn out for the best. A young Korean man sat next to her and put his arm around her.
"Don't worry Jules, everything will be alright." He assured her. She felt herself tremble at his words. She hugged him tight and cried on his shoulder. He embraced her and stroked her cheek, brushing a few strands of hair away from her face.
"But Hworang, you know I'm leaving soon. Why are you so calm?" She asked in a choked voice. He took the flowers from her hand and kissed her on the lips. His kisses, though sweet and subtle, always calmed her. He broke the kiss and stared intently into her sweet eyes that were glossy from crying.
"Because I don't believe that we ever have to say goodbye. There will always be a part of you that will stay with me wherever I go." He whispered in her ear. She contently spent her last few minutes crying on his chest. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
At the same time:
Ling Xiaoyu sat at the side of Jin's bed crying her eyes out by his pillow. She could not believe that something like this could have happened. She looked up to him so much; he was like a brother who had always been there for her, even during the roughest times. She called out his name, and there was no response. She had been at the hospital for nearly five hours and there was no sign of consciousness from him. She looked at his still face and cried some more. The doctors passed her by and offered some blankets and a couch so that she could spend the night with her friend. She nodded her head and a soft "Thanks" escaped her lips. She knelt down by him holding his icy hands in hers.
"Jin, you were always there for me, don't leave me now." She chocked on her words, trying her best to make them come out clear and crisp. "I will do anything to see you healthy again, I hate seeing you like this." She whispered." It wasn't fair. Jin had put his life in danger for her, when she hadn't asked. "That's the price we pay for being in love. Like the time that I thought I was in love, for the first time I honestly believed that I had found the right man for me. But things weren't what they seemed. I was shaken up inside and I swore that I could never get back on track. Then you lent me your shoulder to cry on, and I knew that you cared." She wiped a few of her tears away. She looked down at her hand and saw Jin move a few of his fingers caress hers. She looked at him, yet there was still no emotion. She sighed and decided to take matters into her own hands. She slowly let go of his hand and walked over to one of the doctors. "I would like to donate some of my blood to Jin." (Ok, so I know they don't have the same blood type, just pretend they do!!!) The nurse looked at her and smiled.
"Are you sure?" Xiaoyu nodded her head.
"I'm not going to sit here and watch him slip away from me." The nurse smiled again and brought out some paperwork for her to fill out. She filled them out and was positioned on a bed next to Jin's as the needle went into her skin.
"He lost a lot of blood. You may be here for a while." Ling closed her eyes.
"Do whatever you need to get him back to normal." She said. She looked out of the window and saw Julia leave Hworang as she headed towards her house. "Good luck Julia, follow your heart and..." She drifted off into sleep.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Julia went into her apartment and landed on her bed. She took out her photo album and hugged it tightly to her chest. She had to make so many decisions in so little time. She ended up crying herself to sleep. That night, the two of them dreamt of their first meeting with Hworang and Jin.
Ling was with her friend Julia at the mall. Ling was a hyper and bouncy girl who wanted to make the best things out of life. Ling was looking at a clothing store and saw a beautiful dress. She walked in, Dragging Julia along with her to check out the outfit. Julia crossed her arms and smiled.
"Xiaoyu, isn't that a little...oh, I don't know...fancy?" Julia asked. Xiaoyu looked at the dress and ran a few fingers down the fabric. The dress was a pearly white color with an open back and lace going down the center of the back. It measured to about the length of her thighs.
"I think it looks pretty. I really like it. Maybe Hiro might like it too." She said gazing at it passionately. Julia smiled and shook her head.
"What ever you say Xiaoyu. But where are you going to get the money?" She asked. Xiaoyu frowned and backed away from the dress.
"I don't have the money. I don't even have a job." Julia's eyes widened.
"So you believe that Hiro is going to support you all your life? What if you two get married?" Julia asked. Xiaoyu walked out of the store and sat on a bench looking at the dress through the glass. Julia put her arm around her trying to comfort her. "Look, I'm sorry-" Xiaoyu lift her head up and shook her finger.
"No, you're right. I should honestly learn how to fend for myself." She said smiling back. "Besides, I love Hiro too much to use him like that." She said with a smile. Julia rested her head on the back of the bench.
"I'm surprised you two have been together for so long. I thought it was just a silly crush at first, but I see how much you care for him."
"Yeah, just like you and Mike! He's all you ever talk about." Ling said laughing. Julia laughed along with her.
Hworang and Jin were at the same mall walking around, with no idea of what to do. Hworang saw Ling and Julia sitting on the bench alone.
"Hey Kazama, look!" He said pointing to the two girls. Jin looked over at them. "I wonder what they are doing here." Hworang said advancing towards them. Jin stood by the pole leaning his back against it.
"Leave them alone." He said. Hworang looked back disappointed.
"Why? What's bugging you?" He asked. Jin just rolled his eyes and didn't say another word. "Don't you wish that they were single? Us two single guys, together with them, that would work out perfectly. Except for the fact that they would be fighting over me!" Hworang said laughing.
"I wouldn't want such a thing. They have boyfriends whom they love, we wouldn't stand a chance." Jin said with a sigh. Hworang smirked tilting his head towards Jin.
"Ah, I see! You just don't want to accept the challenge! Admit it Kazama, you are jealous!" He teased. Jin punched him in the shoulder and smiled. "Can we at least just say hi? Please, just give me that much." He pleaded. Jin nodded.
"Alright, just as long as you don't come on to them." He answered. Hworang smiled and approached the two with Jin following after. Hworang sat next to Julia and Jin sat next to Xiaoyu. The two girls looked at their male friends next to them.
"Hey Hworang, hey Jin. What's up?" Julia asked. Hworang put his arm around Julia.
"Nothing much. Kazama and I were just walking around." He said. Ling tapped Hworang on the shoulder.
"Hanging around? In a mall?" She asked with a chuckle to her voice. Julia looked at the two of them as their faces turned red. "You know, Valentines Day is coming up soon, do you two have a valentines?" She looked at Jin, then back at Hworang. Jin looked at Hworang, not knowing what to say.
"Well, We-" Jin started then was cut off by Hworang.
"Yeah! We sure do, Jin has a very pretty Asian girlfriend who is two years older than he is! And I have a Korean babe from when we were in Junior high. She was always crazy about me." He said boastfully. Xiaoyu frowned a bit and Julia gave him a fake smile.
"Oh, well, good for you guys." Julia said still trying to keep a smile.
"Yeah, I'm glad that you two are happy." Xiaoyu said in response. Jin felt bad for having Hworang lie for him. Julia stood up and stretched her arms. She gave one bag to Xiaoyu and took one for herself.
"Come on Xiaoyu, we'd better get going." Julia said. The two waved goodbye and walked down the mall. Jin and Hworang looked at eachother, as the seat next to them was empty.
"Man, I could use that Korean hottie right about now." Hworang sighed. Jin rested his elbows on his knees looking at the ground.
"Why did we lie to them? They're our friends, and friends shouldn't lie to eachother."
"Jin, did you want them to know we don't have dates? Or any relationship going on at all??" Hworang asked. Jin sat and thought about it for a while. What had become of them now? They were lying just to look good.
"Well, it would have been better than lying to them." Hworang shot his eyes open.
"Get real Kazama! No girl is going to give you a second thought if you told them that you didn't have a girlfriend." Jin didn't answer back. He got up and began to walk away. "Wait! What's wrong? Where are you going?"
"Maybe I don't need a girlfriend right now. Maybe, I don't need anyone right now." He said in a low tone. "I'm going, don't bother waiting up." He said.
"Kazama! Get your ass back over here!" Hworang yelled. He threw his arms to his side and walked the opposite way. Jin stood by a store opposite of Julia and Xiaoyu. They were laughing and sharing a pizza. Then, two guys came over to sit by them. They were tall, handsome, and about three years older than them. One was Japanese, and the other was American. Jin saw the way the two girls reacted. Was he jealous of them? Did he actually NEED someone?
"No. I don't need anyone." He thought. Jin slowly walked out of the building, looking back at the four, and shaking his head repeating over and over, "I don't need anyone."
Kotou: Eh, not as good as I'd hope, but hey! It's something! The second chapter is going to take a while. Mostly because I don't know what to write for the second chapter, and because I'm too busy with my other fic Fatal Destiny 2! Oh well, I will try to keep up as much as I can!!!! Just tell me if this is good or not. And if there are any particular scenes you wanna see, like have one chapter be all Xiaoyin, or one chapter all J/H, something like that!!! Just request it and I'll try to deliver!!!
Jai Ne!
