D.D.: Alright then, sorry I took so long to update, but I've been suffocated by schoolwork and projects for the better part of May.
*Note. This fic is set AFTER GS: TLA, so a few spoilers may pop up here and there. Nothing too serious though.*
taidigimon: ^^; Thanks for the compliments, even if you were bashing yourself.
Dragon Empress: Thanks. I knew I was being mean to him, but hey, the fics centered around him, so you gotta make it more than sunshine and daisies.
Midiot: Great work? I wouldn't consider my work great, maybe mediocre. Thanks anyway!
Triad Orion: Thanks! And about the page layout.I can't get the paragraphs to indent on fanfiction, or double spaced. But they are when I type this.
KJ: Thanks. I wrote this story based off my own experiences. Of course, things didn't work out for me.
Mad Squirrel: I'm a sucker too, don't worry. I enjoy reading pure sap, and I'm a big Isaac/Mia fan I wouldn't have it any other way. Besides G/J and I/S
Red Blaze: Yay! Thanks, a Good Stamp! I know it's short. I like to keep things spread out.
Lord Cynic: Thanks for the great review! I feel so accomplished.
Fox and Tiger: Sorry I updated kind of late. Refer under disclaimer. And thanks for saying it's cute. It's what I'm aiming for.
The night was fairly uneventful and quiet, save for Ivan's loud snoring. Isaac could not sleep though. He kept thinking of the close moment he had with Mia, and then how Garet ruined it, and then how he would kill him. Fishing under his bed, he pulled out a small, leather-bound book with a small bottle of ink and a quill. Slowly opening the bottle of ink, he cracked open his book and flipped past a few pages of chicken scratch. Apparently it was his journal, and he wrote in it often. He dipped the point of the quill into the ink and pressed it to the white paper.
Dear Journal,
Today was an OK day; nothing amazing, yet nothing bad. Garet collapsed my roof again, surprise surprise. It took me a while to fix it, considering he did it twice. I tried to spend more time with Mia today, but was always interrupted by something, be it my mother or someone else. Later on in the evening, Garet caught on to my obsession and decided he wanted to take things into his own hands by forcing us closer. Literally. And then.he messed it up with his lack of common-
"Hey Isaac!" The loud Mars Adept tapped him on the shoulder, giving Isaac a mild heart-attack, which left the Earth Adept gasping for breath, his hand over his heart.
"Don't DO that Garet! I still don't understand why you're sleeping over my house in the first place, yours being about thirty seconds away and all, if that." Hand still over chest, Isaac was still getting over the element of surprise from Garet.
"Aww.Isaac, I'm hurt. You really don't want me over here? And besides, I like sleeping over your house, gives us time for some of that male bonding." In the process of telling him that, Garet slipped on the floor beside where Isaac was sitting and snatched the journal out of his hands. "Ooooh Isaac, you keep a diary? I didn't know that. See? These are the kinds of things we can learn about on our little sleep-overs."
Grabbing the journal back from Garet's grasp, Isaac looked at him annoyed. "First of all, it's a _journal_, not a diary. Secondly, I've known you for about my whole life, and thirdly, this journal has been kept hidden" Closing the book, Isaac slipped it under his bed and closed the bottle of ink.
"What do you write about in those things anyway? Stuff about me? C'mon Isaac, tell me!" Trying to get the journal out from under Isaac's bed, he whined when he couldn't find it. "Where is it?"
Isaac shook his head and chuckled. "Nope, that's MY secret that I'm not willing to share with you for a bit. I know how well you keep secrets and I want to be the one to tell Mia I'm madly in love with her." Glancing around the room slightly, he just wanted to be sure that she wasn't standing right there listening to every word coming out of his mouth. Climbing back up onto his bed, Isaac yawned and pulled up his covers. "Go back to bed Garet, it's late."
Happily complying with his friend's demand, Garet went to his bed and closed his eyes, though not before saying something. "Y'know Isaac, it's actually early, so." He never got to finish his last statement, because a pillow was abruptly thrown at him.
~*~At the same time, in Mia and Jenna's room.~*~
Mia and Jenna were sitting up and talking idly with each other, about their lives, dreams, plans for the future. You know, the stuff most girls talk about on sleep-overs. Can't say the same about Isaac and Garet though.
".And after I marry Garet, we're going to have lots of babies and live on a big farm in Contigo." Jenna smiled proudly at Mia, after proclaiming her plans for the future. She cocked her head at Mia who seemed to be in her own little world. "Hey Mia, you OK?"
Snapping out of her trance, she smiled and nodded at the female Mars Adept. "Yea, I'm fine. That sounds great Jenna; already have your future planned out for you. I hope it works with you and Garet." Drifting back into silence, she sighed lightly and looked out the window into the star- dotted blue.
"So, what are your plans for the future Mia? Anyone special you want to share it with?" Smiling slyly at the Mercury Adept, Jenna knew she was going to have trouble answering this. Sitting cross-legged on her bed, she leaned back casually against the wall and waited for Mia's good answer.
"Well.I.um.you see, the thing is." Struggling to find a good way to answer this question, Mia scratched her head and scrunched her face in thought. "I know! I'll share my life with my Djinn!"
Jenna then burst out into fits of giggles, unable to suppress them. "Y-y-your D-Djinn? Hahaha! Mi, that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard in my life! Mostly, Djinn are so annoying, that people -want- to get away from them, not be with them forever."
Mia then took a defensive look, knowing what she said was stupid herself. "Yea, well, I happen to enjoy the company of my Djinn! So I don't mind spending time with them." She crossed her arms stubbornly, and looked at the floor.
Jenna smiled slyly, having a solution to Mia's companionship problem. "Hey Mia, if you ever get tired living alone with your Djinn, I think I know someone who might want to be a part of your life." When Mia gave her a questioning gaze, she continued with her speech. "Maybe a certain blonde, blue-eyed, handsome, Earth Adept could be of some assistance toy you."
The Mercury Adept's eyes widened at the though of someone so much better than her being in love with her. "Isaac and -me-? Yea right Jenna! He could do WAY better than me. Especially with all those girls who were drooling all over him during Colloso." Her face burned with color at the fact that Jenna even mentioned the possibility of her and Isaac being a couple. It was simply impossible.
Jenna continued to flash a sly smile in Mia's general direction, shaking her head no. "I feel differently than you do, but you can think whatever you want to think. But the next time Isaac is by you, just watch how long his gaze lingers on you, and you'll see what I mean." The fiery Adept yawned widely and lay down in her bed, closing her eyes.
The other mimicked her actions and covered the blanket all the way up to her nose and closed her eyes. "Night Jenna."
"Night Mia."
D.D.: I hope this was better than the last chapter. Please review so I can take your thoughts into consideration. Tune in next time for chapter three of Destined Souls!
