--------------------
He stared into her half lidded eyes, as they stood on the porch together. Silence. Oh, so deadly silence. It was the one thing that scared Asakura Yoh, if anything did, it was his fiancée's deadly silence in the morning served with a side dish of emotionless stares. What happened to the cheery, nearly-screwed-him Anna? He missed her. Deeply. Nonetheless, she was gone, and would be for awhile.. at least during school. At the very least.
"We best get going to the bus stop. Manta can catch up. If you really need to, though, wait for him." Yoh only slightly nodded as she turned and walked across the field to reach the bus stop. Yoh ran behind her, that broad smile stretched across his face. "Uhm, Anna, are you-" "You best not talk about anything that happened last night to your idiotic friends." She said coldly, her gaze still ahead. "I may have said and done some things with you last night, but I still have a reputation to keep." Her golden hair flowed in the wind, as the snow crunched beneath her feet from the night before's snowfall. She lowered her head, hiding her slight pleasured smile as she thought about it. Naïve fool! You are Anna, Kyouyama Anna! You don't have pleasure in such idiotic things.
She sighed softly, as Yoh blinked when she lowered head. "Er- something I said, Anna-chan?" He said lightly, his eyes upon her as they walked together through the white puffage. "No, Yoh." She lifted her head, the light blush of embarrassment in herself was noticeably there. He smiled, knowing EXCACTLY what she was thinking about. "Oh, Anna-chan... you don't need to hide that from me." He put his arm behind her, grabbing her shoulder. She immediately blushed, though its not anything compared to what she did last night she was still now in public. She didn't move away, but was forced to press her side against his own as they walked.
"Yoh, once we get to school we can't act this way, you know..." He plasted a fake, disappointed frown. "Aw, your embarrassed of me?" "No! It's not that!" She didn't understand it was sarcasm. He chuckled. "Anna-chan, I was joking, don't be so worried!" He looked over to her with that genuine smile once more, she blinked softly but couldn't help but slightly curve her lips at that. Wait.. w-what am I doing?! She turned her head away; her shining hair that had been tucked behind her ear fell down so her face was now hidden.
They approached the bus stop. Yoh immediately took his hands away from Anna's slim body, as they walked together on the platform. Apparently, Manta was still on his way over there... Anna only hoped he wasn't still eating. But, soon enough, about 5 minutes later Manta ran into the scene. "Ah, Yoh! I didn't know you'd leave for the bus stop." He looked over to Anna for a moment, but immediately turned back to Yoh. Anna blinked, but no time was given to respond as the bus turned the street and sped for the stop. Here's to another 'great' day at school. Hurray.
She sat by herself, as usual, Yoh sat by Manta and they could easily be heard. Personally, she thought they looked like a bunch of babbling fools. But, she kept her mouth shut, as they approached the dull building. She sighed, not regarding the people who are supposed to get off first and stepped off the bus. She wasn't the type to care. Walking down the sidewalk, she entered the building as she got a few glances.
She walked down the hallway slowly. Each step was almost as if it was slow motion; for no reason at all, she started zoning out. Anna... I told you, that Gabrielle girl means nothing to me. She felt herself pause in the middle of the hallway, but she was slowly fading into her mind... there was nothing she could do. "Eh--?!" She escaped from her lips, as she all the sudden fell to the ground. Her books flew as well as her papers, crashing onto her knees she let out a soft cry.
She immediately turned around to see who pushed her, when there she was- Gabrielle. "Oh, did I knock you over again?" She said in her obnoxious voice, looking down to Anna who was now on the floor in her homework assignments. "You REALLY need to stop daydreaming about Hideki and get to class..." She said, her voice faded down the hallway as she walked down the hall. Hideki was the short geek with big glasses, who smelled like cottage cheese and was a jerk to everyone. Everyone's worst nightmare.
She shuddered softly, for the first time not everyone was staring; had this suddenly becoming a daily episode? She was going to put a stop to it, nonetheless, sometime during one of the classes with her or lunchtime. She was getting really sick of this girl... first she just laughed everything off. But this was just getting annoying and stupid.
Later that day.
Study hall, last period of the day. She walked through the hall, looking around for Yoh or Gabrielle. Either one. She could care less which one she found first.
But, she was unhappy with what she found.
There Yoh was, chuckling with Gabrielle in his arms, as he smiled widely. She stopped dead in her tracks, her eyes wide as she kept looking at the scene. She wiped her hair away from her face, as she blew a bubble gum bubble. With his finger, he popped it, and she giggled and he chuckled once more, she clenched her fists, and at that moment, Yoh realized Anna was there. And knew EXCACTLY what was going on.
She lowered her head; her golden hair falling down once more. "Anna-chan... I..." He ran towards her, attempting to embrace her but she pushed him away. "Damn you, Yoh!" She exclaimed, not too loud but loud enough. She tore herself away from him, then running down the hall she decided that she might as well skip this period. It was pointless anyways. She could feel his prescence behind her, the intensity of the moment was insane. Forcing the heavy doors open of the school, she ran towards the street to walk home. "Anna, stop making such a big deal!" She turned to him, holding back her tears, but rather showed it with the most pissed off look ever imagined. "How about you take something SERIOUS once?! HUH?" She exclaimed harshly, not even bothering to look she turned and headed for the street.
Yoh turned his head; a car was coming. "Anna-chan, watch-" His eyes widened as he choked on his words, the moment completely froze as the car hit her. Dramatically she flew onto the windshield of the car, her scream catching his breath. His pulse felt like a hammer smashing into his heart, as she hit the hood of the car and then she fell behind onto the pavement. He got his legs to move, breaking into a run as fast as he could possibly run. "Anna-chan!!" He screamed, then running up to her he kneeled beside her.
She slightly opened her eyes. "Yoh... I'm so sorry..." She said softly, a weak smile appeared across her damaged face. He let a tear fall down his face as her cuddled her, digging his face into her stomach.
All things that come up, must come down. Let's run forever, away from this town. Your beautiful essence, yet you forever frown. I love you, don't you understand?
