Chapter 2
*whumpf*
"Ow......." Van groaned. He had landed, not so nicely, without anything to break his fall. His body, already weak from being sick, was weakened even more by the trip. So, Van decided to rest awhile on the floor of god knows where because he didn't even have the strength to look around.
'At least I am closer to Hitomi....' Van thought and drifted into unconciousness.
When Mrs. Kanzaki walked into her dying daughter's room she didn't know if she should scream or cry. Just an hour ago, before Hitomi had gone to sleep, Hitomi had told her mother of her fantastic journey to another land, and of her love that awaited her. This unconcious young gentleman seemed to fit the profile that Hitomi had discribed with such vigor.
~Flashback~
"...And there was a prince named Van, well actually he's a king now. He was the one who took me with him to Gaea. He's lean, and tall, well taller than me, and he always wears his brown pants and red shirt." Hitomi continued, eyes ablaze with excitement, "And his guymelf transforms into a dragon, and he has wings like an angel, and he can fly, and ...." Hitomi drifted off into sleep, almost passing into unconciousness because she had exerted too much energy into the telling of her story.
~End Flashback~
Mrs. Kanzaki's eyes focused in on the young man laying on the floor of Hitomi's room. She immediately decided to get a matress or something else for him to lie on. She ran around the house gathering objects that would perhaps make him as comfortable as Hitomi, after all, he was a king. After her quick errand run she dumped an array of things onto the floor, trying to decide if she wanted to wake him up, or just move him over a little and then put him on the matress.
The thump of the blankets and whatnot had awakened Van.
"Oooooooooooooo...." Van streched a little, still tired, but wide awake because of the thump. Glancing upwards he saw a middle aged lady with brown hair and a figure like Hitomi's. "Excuse me, excuse me..." Van mumbled almost incoherently. Van tried to get up, but was still too weak from his journey. He had decided almost immediately to at least make a courteous entrance and make his point across quickly. "I am Van Fanel, I would like to court your daughter. Excuse me for not getting up, I'm a little tired." He winced, a little too quickly.
Mrs. Kanzaki just giggled in reply.
Van, of course, confused looked around in a daze.
"I'm sorry dear, but nobody has used the phrase, "to court" since the feudal days."
"Oh, ummm... May I see Hitomi?" Van asked eager to accomplish his journey's goal.
"She's right there." Mrs. Kanzaki just pointed to the bed next to Van.
Hitomi stirred. Mumbling about a stupid boy who didn't feel like combing his hair or getting a different wardrobe other than some red shirts and khaki pants.
Van got up, a little shaky on his knees, and stumbled over to the bed.
"Well, Hitomi, if you didn't like my clothes that much you could have just told me."
Hitomi's eyes popped open.
"Van?" she whispered.
"Yup, in the flesh." he said softly into her ear, his dark bangs brushing her cheek.
"I wished and waited for you to come. Your mother came to me to say that you'd have a wish fufilled." Hitomi closed her eyes, tears rolling down her cheeks.
"I wished to be with you." Van replied kissing her now tear stained cheek.
Mrs. Kanzaki left the room as quietly as possible, but could still hear what was going on in the quiet-as-a-mouse, house. Suddenly the doorbell rang, something quite uncommon these days. Mrs. Kanzaki ran to answer the door.
"Hello?" she opened the door quickly.
"Hi, can Hitomi come for dinner with us?"
Mrs. Kanzaki turned cold at the thought.
"Nice of you to come by Yukari and Amano." she said chips of ice falling from her lips. "She's sick since the last time you came to visit, last spring." cruelly she was going to rub it in.
"Gomen Nasai, we were bad." Yukari said quietly.
"No, you may not take Hitomi out to dinner. She needs her rest and has a visitor that she probably wouldn't want you to meet. You could ruin his happiness too." she said attacking all that they had done wrong to her daughter.
"You may leave now." Van had walked out into the foyer with the noise. "you upset me. When she was with me she told me how wonderful you are. In the past 10 seconds all I have heard has disproven those stories. Leave." he commanded.
Nearly to the state of tears Yukari ran out the door. Amano bowed once and ran after his girlfriend.
"That wasn't nice." Hitomi remarked from her room.
"I know dear, but they shouldn't treat you that way." Mrs. Kanzaki replied softly.
"I know."
Van walked back to Hitomi's room to collapse onto Hitomi's bed. He was still tired and a bit sick.
Mrs. Kanzaki followed Van's path back into the room and saw both of them lying on the bed. Hitomi was curled into Van like she belonged there. Van's chin was in her hair and his hands were placed protectively around her waist. Mrs. Kanzaki sighed and gathered the blankets off the floor. She tucked Van into the covers with her daughter and set about making a cot on the floor.
