Love of an Angel - Ah My Goddess Fanfic

Part Two of One Wish By Arie Tarou

Chapter Two - New Paths


Everything seemed normal as she sat down for dinner. Well, if you counted the blast bits from Skuld latest going high hire, Urd badgering her about it, and Belldandy grinning while serving Keiichi some tea to go with dinner. Yup, all was normal. But then, why did it feel so different to her. Finishing up her dinner, she brought her plate to the kitchen and then headed to her favorite tree, bringing a book on oracle cards with her. Belldandy was always good at Rune readings that Tea leaf readings. But Arie, herself, always felt drawn to the card divinations, like oracle and Tarot cards. She flipped through the book on Faerie cards as she heard an argument floating from Keiichi's work room. Looking out of the tree, Arie could see Megami, Keiichi's younger sister, trying to bring out an idea for the Motor club. From what she could tell, Megami was trying to get Keiichi to help out that coming fall, even though he was not returning to school because that previous year he had graduated. Megami looked out the door and waved to her, motioning her to come say hi. Arie waved back and sighed inwardly. What was that girl up to? She met Megami when She had returned from the depths of hell only a year ago, and dispite the girls obsession with mechanical devices (cars, motorcycles and the like), they got along famously. Tucking her book into her 'hyperspace storage pocket' she soon arrived at the workshop.

"Hi Megami, what's up?" The girl grinned and they exchanged hugs. Keiichi just went back to his work and pretended not to notice they were there. Either Megami had something up her sleeve or he just wanted to get back to his work. Arie voted for Megami.

"Hey Arie-Chan, how's your summer been? haven't seen you in a month or so. Things going well?" Arie smiled.

"Not a whole lot. Mara had a little fun earlier, but Skuld's newest Bampei took care of her. What a wonderful invention." She smiled, Megami chuckled.

"Ah.. I'm still not use to this whole 'Goddess' and 'Demon' thing." Arie smiled sympathetically. "Give it time, Megami." She nodded.

"Anything else?" Arie shock her head, "Other then another hit CD, not a whole lot." Arie blushed a little about her quick success. Although she never really went public personally, her music was original and of a large variety and was quickly picked up by some of the larger record companies. With a little help from Belldandy, she convinced them that she did not wish to go on tour, only that she wished to write and sing songs, and leave it at that. And a month after the fist record she didn't even get so much as a call for a concert, which Arie found a great releif.
"Well that's wonderful! What songs did you put on this one?"

"Um, Sympathy, To my Heart, Crossover, and about 5 other songs that you haven't heard yet." Megami sighed with an 'awe' in her voice. "I love Sympathy. That's such an awesome song. Dark, but i love the little trinket sounds in the background. Almost sounds like a mechanics workshop!" The girls cheeks went a little pink as her mind had wandered over to her mechanical fetish. Arie only giggled. "I'm glad you like it. So, what brought you here anyways? Did you sell that bike you built?" She asked back and the girl returned to the real world. She saw a little glint in the girls eyes, and Arie knew that the girl was hiding something.

"I sold the bike for a little more then i was expecting. That was a surprise and i was happy about that." She paused and looked thoughtful. "Arie, can i ask you a question?"

"Fire Away"

"Have you ever thought of going back to school?" Arie stopped and Megami turned to face her.

"What do you mean? Are you trying to get me into the motor club again?" Megami's look went a little sheepish.

"Well, we are looking for more members. But think about it. You could take a few random classes and learn some new things, Maybe learn to speak English, and we could even be in the same class!" The girl almost looked as excited like a child at Christmas. Arie didn't bother to comment that she already could speak English fluently, among many other languages. One of the perks about being a goddess. Megami blushed a little, and Arie got the clue.

"You met a guy!" Megami's cheeks went aflame and Arie knew she guessed right. "Who is it?! What's his name?"

"He's new. He joined the motor club last your, acting as a teachers sponsor. He's an intern that taught English last year, and probably will again. A gaigin, but he's so cute!" She giggled, and Arie smiled at her. "Interesting. You still haven't told me his name."

"Shawn Senpai."

"A Gaigin!? Where's he from?" Megami stopped for a second and thought, "I think somewhere in Canada. He mentions something about the Great North, and all this funny talk about snow. but I can't remember the city's name." She shrugged. "But no matter. It's just nice to have a talk, sexy man that can over power Tamiya and Ootaki senpai." Arie raised her eye-brow at her mention of 'sexy' but kept it to herself. She was happy for the girls good fortune. Decent guys, much like back at home, were fairly rare, and even she did not have much luck with them.

"So, have you asked him out yet?" Arie asked lightly, trying her best to poke at her without prying too much. Megami furiously shook her head. "No I haven't. We always seem to busy with a project, and i always forget." Arie and Megami giggled a little. "Come to NIT with me, please?" Arie looked at the girl and started to protest, "But I'm not one for technology.." Megami pulled at her arm a little, "Common. You help Skuld with that awesome computer of yours, and well.. there are other classes then just technical stuff. Like astrology, and English, and well... lots of other classes!" She smiled, and Arie caught the Shawn reference.

Arie smiled and patted the girls hand. "I'll think about it. You never know what the future might hold." Arie winked and then bid good bye, heading back to her tree for the afternoon.
