To See You

Rei opened his eyes. His whole body ached. He shivered as the cold air hit his body but winced as pin shot up his back. A few hours ago he was a human punching bag. His head felt like it was about to explode. He closed his eyes and tried to relax, but found it difficult because his arms were in the most uncomfortable. A sigh escaped his lips. Then his ears picked up footsteps heading his way. He picked his head up and looked at his visitor.

A hooded figure stood in front of the door. In a hushed whisper the figure told the guard to open the doors. The guard obeyed. Rei shivered as a cool breeze hit him. The figure walked towards him and bent on one knee and lifted his face.

"Mariah?!" He asked in a hushed whisper.

"Shhh… It's okay. Don't talk." Tears sprung in her eyes. She softly gasped at the sight of him. He had a black eye a few bruises on his arms and collar bone, his bandana was ripped and his hair was somewhat caked in blood. She shook as she took out a key and undid Reis' bindings. She caught him as he fell. She took her robe off and laid it on his shivering body. Tears fell down her face.

"I am so sorry. This is my entire fault. You wouldn't be here if…"

"Shhh. don't talk like that. This isn't your fault. I don't blame you."

"Yes…but…"

"Shhh I don't want to here it. It isn't your fault. Why if I hadn't come here I may never have met you."

"It would have been better. You wouldn't be hurt like you are now." Tears sprang down her face. Than a hand wiped away the water crystal from her cheek. She opened and looked at him. His golden eyes looking up at her and she saw something that she hasn't seen on his eyes before. Love. He smiled,

"I never knew angels cried." She softly laughed and smiled.

"There that's better. I love to see the way your face lights up when you smile." She softly looked at him. She loved him so much, and wanted to help him any way possible. She wondered how he could be smiling, He was just beat, and he is in a cold cell and is probably going to die soon. How could he be so happy?

She took a rag out and put a something on it and softly whispered,

"Now this may sting a little." She placed it at the gash on his head. He flinched as it touched it, but relaxed as he got used to it. She softly patted it until the gash was clear of blood. Then she took out a bandage and placed it on his head. Where it stayed in place. She then took care of the rest of his wounds and let his head rest on her lap.

He gazed at her. She was the most beautiful he had ever seen. He never actually knew she cared this much until now. His eyes became glassy as he watched her. Ever since his mother, no one ever showed that they loved him this much. She noticed a tear fall down his cheek from his golden eyes.

"Why are you crying, my love?"

"It's just that no one has ever loved me this much since my mother. I have never felt like this about anyone…except you. Of course." She caressed his face and ran her fingers through his raven black hair. She hated her father for this. Doing this to a human being, it shouldn't be legal. That's the first thing she'll change not to do this to prisoners. She never liked pain. She never liked to hurt anyone. She closed her eyes.

"I am sorry for having such a terrible father, I didn't mean for him to be so mean and cruel."

"Don't apologize. It's not your fault that your father turned out this way." Tears sprang in her eyes again and fell down her face again. Even though he said it wasn't, somehow she felt guilty. She had to do something. But what? She opened her eyes and looked upon Rei. His eyes closed. She knew he was resting. She continued to run her fingers through his hair.

Rei had closed his eyes to try to rest. The pain had subsided a little so he could try and rest. He let out a sigh. He was so content right now; he had Mariah, and her love. He loved her to. He didn't care what happened as long as she was with him, he didn't care. A smile crossed his features. Mariah leaned against the wall and closed her eyes. She slowly fell asleep.

Rei looked up at Mariah to see her sleeping. He smiled to see how peaceful she looked when she slept. He slowly picked him self up and looked at her again. And softly kissed her on he lips. He looked at her with loving eyes. He softly caressed her face. Her face as soft as velvet and he moved his hand over and ran his hands through her fuchsia colored hair. He loved the way it felt. He smiled as a smile crossed her face. His golden eyes shimmered with love for her. He lay back down on her lap and closed his eyes. He too soon drifted to sleep.

~ Mariahs Dream ~

She made her way down the hall. She couldn't figure out way but the palace seemed a little empty. She looked around. She sighs as she made her way to that garden.

She then heard commotion.

"What is going on?" she walked out the door. And gasped as horror took over her eyes.

"REI! NO!" She flew across the garden and onto the lawn.

"Father Don't! Please." But her cries went unheard. She watched in horror as the dropped the bottom of the gallows and watched her love slowly die. Tears sprang in her eyes. As he quite flailing and was still.

"NO!"

~ End of Dream ~

Mariah eyes shot open and she sat up. He eyes darted around and looked down and relaxed as she saw Rei sleeping peacefully on her lap. She was still slightly shaken. She took a deep breath and sighed. She slowly lifted his head and rested it on an extra blanket that she had brought.

"I'll be back my love. I promise." She blew a kiss at his sleeping form. And slipped out of the cell and shut it. She made her way out of the dungeons. She had no idea how long she was down there, but she was sure that he father would be looking for her.

She carefully made her way to her room. She slipped in and shut the door with out a sound. She sighed and leaned against the door. She closed her eyes and exhaled. She then heard a sound out side her window. She walked over to the window and opened it.

"Hello?" she shrugged and was about to close the window when…

' Hey! Wait!" she looked around and spotted a green haired boy with violet eyes.

'Yes. How may I help you?"

" I was wondering where Rei was?" she looked down at him curiously and arched an eyebrow.

"How do you know Rei?"

" He is my friend. I want to see him. Please." She looked around, then nodded. He smiled and jumped up to her sill and jumped inside.

"Follow me please. And be quite." She hissed as she walked over to her door and peered out. No one. She opened it more and looked down the other way. No one. She waved her hand for him to follow. He quickly followed her. He followed her down to the dungeons. She took him to a cell.

"By the way I never got your name."

"Kevin." She nodded and opened the doors with the keys she had swiped from the door. Kevin rushed in.

Rei opened his eyes to someone calling his name. He slowly opened eyes to see the face of his long time friend.

"Kevin!" He sat up. "What are you doing here?"

"Duh. What else, to see you. What is up, how come you're in here?"

"It's a long story but to make it short…"

"He kissed and fell in love with me." Mariah finished. Kevin looked at Rei and then Mariah, then back at his friend. Rei laughed at the shocked expression.

Kevin shook his head and smiled.

"There is nothing wrong with that."

"To my father there is." Mariah added glumly. She looked down. "It is dishonoring to love a servant." She leaned against the wall. "But I don't care. I love him anyway! And nothing cane take that away." She smiled at Rei and he smiled back.

Kevin looked at his friend and then down at the floor.

"Hey Kevin! What 's up?" Rei asked his friend. Then Kevin jumped up scaring Rei.

"I have an idea."

"Uh-oh." Kevin glared at Rei who laughed.

"Your ideas usually get us in trouble." Mariah giggled and Kevin looked at her like ' your not helping.' She giggled again. He sighed and dropped his head.

"Lets' hear it Kevin" Rei said.

"Okay here's what I think…"
