Chappie 9: Reunited at Last

Their faces slowly inched towards each other and met in a passionate, longing and desperate kiss. Finally breaking off from each other for air. they started again and rolled down the hill in each other's embrace. His body on top of hers, he broke away from the kiss. Putting his weight on his arms he looked into his lovers eyes. (Or former lover.etc.) Pain, love, and warmth he saw and Clef spoke.

"I want to forget what happened that night, pretend it never happened. I'm so sorry Umi! I never meant to hurt you. But I still want an explanation." Stopping he got up and looked at her. "Why? Why did you leave?"

Umi looked down at the grass suddenly finding it very interesting. Clef took her face in his hand and brought her up to look at him in the face.

"Why Umi?" he whispered in a pained voice.

Umi looking at the sunset sighed and began.

"You know the beginning, it all started with me, Fuu and Hikaru becoming Magic Knights. Then during my stay in Cephiro, I fell in love with you. Then it was the time when we first kissed at the fountain and became lovers (Literally) Well. I found out that I got pregnant with Yuki. And I didn't wan to burden you."

Clef kissed her softly on the ear and whispered. "When did I ever think of you as a burden? I've always loved you Umi and I would have accepted her and helped you to raise her."

Looking away, Umi realized everything. Wasted time. 'All your fault.' That dumb praise just kept repeating itself in her head. She got up. It was her fault that she had hurt everyone caused them pain and made the worry.

"Leave me alone!" Umi cried.

Taking her up in his arms, Clef whispered, "I can't do that Umi. I would be letting you go again. You mean too much to me."

"How could you say that?! I've left you alone for 7 years(In Cephiro) never showed you your daughter, and made everyone worry about me! I'm just a stupid selfish self-centered person (Um. not gonna use b***h) Umi ran, breaking free from Clef's grasp. 'I deserve to live alone. after all I've done.' running away, Clef looked at her.

"I'm not going to lose you again. Not with one hell of a fight. (Should I make them fight? Naw.) So if you want to play the game of cat and mouse, I'll play. But I'm the cat." Starting after her in a chase, the couple disappeared over the hills.

Umi ran into the stables and randomly picked out a horse. Not knowing where to go, she headed in the direction of the first place that came into her head. The Forest Of Silence (Noo I'm not gonna write a lemon! I'm only 12! (Gives an angelic look) If ya do want a lemon, you can e-mail it to me and I'll post it up and give all the credit to ya (I'll make sure of that too!)

'Darn it.' Clef thought. I can't sense her anymore! Damn. the Forest of Silence. Oh well, if that's how she wants it.' Drawing out his sword he held it out in front of him and transported himself to the entrance of the forest. Walking in, he focused all his energy on tracking her life force.

Umi ran in and left the horse tied to a tree. When it whined at being left behind, Umi mummer some soothing words and it calmed down. Running in, she looked around. 'Guess I'll go south.'Heading in that direction, she walked for several minutes before reaching a beautiful waterfall (A/N: I really do like waterfalls huh? ^o^) Sighing and looking at her dusty body, she decided to take a bath.

Clef had tracked Umi for a ½ hour already but every time when he thought he found her; he would run into a dead end..

"Dammit!" For the hundredth time, Clef had run into a dead end. Then turning in the opposite direction, he heard something. Splashing.

Umi waded through the cold and warm water feeling relaxation and rest flow into her. She leaned against a big rock and began to run through her long, blue hair with her fingers.

Clef came through the clearing and saw Umi bathing. Blushing slightly at his immodesty, he turned away from her and climbed onto a tree slowly and quietly. He would wait until she was done.

Umi came out of the water and dried herself (I dunno how? Let's just say that she has a towel right now! Yeah! That's it!!) Turning around, she dressed and heard a voice say impatiently,

Are you done yet??? I've been waiting for like an hour!"

A/N: I've noticed my chappies getting short lately and I apologize about it. But currently, I've been getting more and more homework from my teachers. More homework+fanfiction writing+ less time for thinking of ideas = shorter chapters and slower updating. Anyway , I do apologize and that I just LOVE to end my chappies as a cliffhanger. (A/N: It keeps the readers wanting to know more and stay with the story) So, does anyone know any cheats for Diablo?? (Audience: cough THAT has nothing to do with the story!!! ) Er. hehe. Back to the rants. I hate science. I nearly flunked. Tune in next time for chappie 10: Cat and Mouse!-

Yume-damo-shirinai X_x O_o O_O ?_? !_! o_o ^O^ ^o^ (Don't ya just love facez?)
