Ch.2: Mixed emotions *It's 2 weeks after graduation........
Ring! Ring! *Ugh, It's 8 a.m. Who would be calling at 8 a.m.?!* Hitomi sleepily reached for the phone at her bedside. *This better be important .* "Hello?" Hitomi said sleepily.
"Hey, Hitomi! Are you awake?" said Miaka
"No, but I am now."
"Great ! Can I come in? I'm standing on your front porch."
"What? Sure, I'll be right down."
Miaka was standing on the porch with her cellphone in her hand. She smiled at Hitomi, and waved. She was wearing a light blue tank top, blue tinted sunglasses, blue flip-flops, and capris with light blue and white flowers. "Good morning, Sunshine! Have a good night's sleep? " She began to giggle because Hitomi's hair was sticking up, her eyes were droopy, and her strawberry pajamas were rumpled. She grabbed Hitomi's hand, and dragged her inside to clean her up.
When she was all cleaned up, she was wearing the same ensamble as Miaka except her outfit was orange. Even her nails were orange. "So, what do you want me to do with you today Miaka? I should stay here, and take care of some college stuff."
"A group of us are going to the movies, so I was wondering If you would come. I'd hate to go anywhere fun without my best friend."
"Sure I'll come along. But what about Tamahome? Is he coming?" she asked Miaka as they walked to her car.
"No, he had to work. But we'll be doing alot of things today, so he said he'll join us later if he can."
As Miaka pulled into the theater parking lot , Hitomi saw a group of kids standing off to the side. Hitomi and Miaka climbed out of the car, and headed toward the group of kids. "Hey guys! For those of you who don't know her, this is my best friend Hitomi Kanzaki." Hitomi looked at Miaka's friends, and they were mostly guys. "Miaka, why are there so many guys here?"
"Well," she said sheepishly,"a lot of them are my ex-boyfriends. I'll introduce you." She dragged Hitomi over to a small group of five guys. "Hitomi, this is Hotohori, Nuriko, Taisuki, Amiboshi, and Chichiri. But you already know who Hotohori is." Chichiri was wearing a bucket hat over his long (blue?!) hair, a t-shirt, and blue Hawaiian shorts. He grasped her hand, and said: "Nice to meet you, no da!" Then the other guys came over to shake her hand.
"It's very nice to meet all of you." Hotohori walked over to Hitomi, and threw his long brown hair over one shoulder. Hitomi thought he looked really cute in his brown jacket , black v-neck shirt , and jeans with black flip-flops. He was Miaka's boyfriend before she met Tamahome. "It's nice to see you again, Hitomi. You're still a very pretty girl. I can't believe you're single."
Hitomi blushed, and Miaka walked oer and rolled her eyes. "Oh, quit flirting with my best friend."
"What's wrong, Miaka?" He came behind her, and rested his chin on her shoulder. "Are you jealous?" he said teasingly. Miaka blushed and pushed him away. "You wish," she said with a laugh, then led Hitomi into the theater. They all went to go see "Bringing Down the House." At a funny part , Taisuki laughed out loud, and someone in the audience told him to shut up. "Wha? Who do ya think yer talkin' to, you @!*&%$#@!?-(string of curses. I don't put cursing in my fanfics. Taisuki curses too much!^_^)
Of course Taisuki fought with the guy, and they were kicked out of the theater. So they decided to cruise the mall. "I can't believe he got us kicked out," Hitomi grumbled. "Well that's just the way he is. He has a bad temper," Miaka said. "I don't know what you guys are talkin'about . That guy was totally askin' for it , so I kicked his @$$." " Ignore that idiot . Let's head to the food court , I'm starving."
"Hey!" said the idiot .
"What? But you just had movie theater snacks. I don't understand how you eat so much, yet don't get fat ."
"I'm just that amazing,"she said with a wink. She and the other girls decide to stop by the bathroom first . Hitomi went to order everyone's food when she heard someone screech,"Hitomi!!!" Hitomi turned around just as Millerna Aston enveloped Hitomi in a hug. "It's so good to see you, Hitomi!"
"Same here, Millerna." *Yeah, right ! Because of her, I could'nt be with Allen. But that's over with.*
"Allen, look who's here! It's Hitomi!" *Allen? Here? With her?* Hitomi's eyes widened as she saw Allen stand and stare at her. Millerna led Hitomi over to Allen, smiling broadly. "I did'nt expect to see my old high school friend here. I wish I could chat, but I'm late for an appointment . Here's my number so you can call me, Hitomi." She kissed Allen on the cheek, then waved goodbye as she walked away. Allen blushed a little, and looked kind of guilty.
"Wow. I can't believe you guys are still together. I guess you're pretty serious about her. That's great ,Allen. I'm glad you found that special person." She pulled her sunglasses down over her eyes, and smiled.
"Hitomi........."
"Really, Allen. You are lucky. I have'nt found that special person yet , but I hope someday I will. I'll try to call you tonight . See ya later, okay?" She tried to walk away, but he grabbed her arm. "Hitomi, why are you trying to leave? I barely get to see you at all. What's happening to our relationship? What happened to us?"
A sad look came over her face. She smiled at him."Nothing happened, Allen. You nor our relationship changed. But I've changed, so things will be different . But I'll always be your friend. Okay?" Allen wanted to say more, but Miaka called to Hitomi. Allen hugged her, and whispered in her ear, "Feelings can change too." Her eyes widened, and she stared into Allen's eyes. *Is he trying to tell me something?* "Something to think about , huh?" Allen asked her with a smile. He kissed her forehead, then let her go.
She started to walk away, then looked back at Allen. He was still watching her, and he waved. She smiled and waved back. "Hey, Hitomi. Was'nt that Allen?"
"Yeah. He was just saying hi."
"Well, I'm not hungry anymore. I got my own food since you were talking. Let's go."
"Okay," she said detachedly. She touched the spot on her forehead where Allen kissed her and blushed, though she was'nt aware of it...........
This is the end folks. If you like this chapter, you know what to do. Again, no flames please. ****Note:I know there's no Van in this chapter, but there will be more about him in the next chapter. Auswiedersehen!
