This was liable to come out late :) Oh well!here goes all that I've got for
a day from 1:57 til who knows when!
~~~~
Lyric and Pan walked back to Lys' room,where Neo was still taking a shower,or so sounds of pounding water implied.
Lyric smiled at Pan mysteriously and walked over to the door to the bathroom.
Knocking on the door,she yelled,"Neo hurry up!"
Her yell was followed by an immediate shutting off of the tap,a scurrying sound,and a small click,where by Lyric immediately opened the door but was met by the sound of the tap running again.
She went in with her head held high,but stood awhile as though in thought. Slowly,she turned back to Pan and said,"Bathrooms open," as though nothing bad had happened. Pan frowned at this but needed to use the restroom anyways,so she ventured forth into unknown territory.
Lyric calmly but quickly opened the door to her room,then closed it behind her.She smiled and tried very hard not to laugh when she heard a scream and a shriek,but it was in vain.Pan opened the door immediately (saiyans can do that,ya know :) ).
"What the hell is wrong with you!??AND your brother?!The guy was naked leaning over the knobs when I came in!" "He was adjusting the water temperature,I think," laughed Lyric. "AAHHH That's not what I meant and you know it!" Pan growled. Lyric kept laughing at her,but that laugh became one of competition when Pan hit her with a pillow.A half hour or so later,while feathers were still floating in the air,and Pan and Lyric were lying on the same bed in an unusual position.Their heads lay next to eachother,but when looked at from above,Pan seemed to be upside down .
(AN:think 'Yin Yang'.I'm gonna call this the 'Yin yang' position.)
Pan looked to her left,where Lyrics face was,and spoke.
"Your brother screams like a girl," she said simply,only a light critical note laced her words.
The girls looked into eachothers faces and burst out laughing. "I know,I heard the shrieks," laughed Lyric.
"We should probably go to sleep now," mused Pan,as she looked at the clock.
12:37
"Yea,you're right.I just wanted to stay up,though!"
"I actually know what you mean," said Pan aloud in thought. "Lemme guess," said Lyric as she rolled over and hld herself up slightly on one elbow, "You're something of a tomboy,right?I think you DO want to do SOME 'girly' things,but it seems so stupid that you wouldn't dare,right?"
Pan looked at her new green haired friend in shock and nodded.She had hit the nail right on the head.
Lyric smiled contagiously.
"We can do something about that! I bet you hate make overs,but I can do your hair and give you a ew 'tips'! Like...Instead of putting lipstick on,if you bite your lips or keep them pressed in some way for a while,they'll come out redder or rosier,depending! And your cheeks!Same thing,only rub them!As for eyelashes?Well,you don't have to do a thing!You can wet them and then kind of 'direct' them upwards,if you want that 'curly' look,haha!"Or maybe-" "ENough already!Too much information!" cried Pan.
"Alright already,yeesh!Let's go to sleep!We have a day to kill tomorrow!I need to get my 'reservations' ready with the hotel and everything!I have that Luau,the tours,the snuba thing last and then the Sugar Train...Geez,I'm turning into my father!"
"Or my brother!" laughed Lyric."I think he has the next thirty years of his life planned out or something!" "You're not serious,are you?" asked Pan with a hint of sadness in her voice. "Ah,well not quite,but I swear his planning can get on my nerves sometimes.It's nice to have things organized and planned out,but you know it's going a little too far when you start alphabetizing the food in your sisters fridge!" "You mean he actually does that!?" Lyric nodded."He did,not does.He is such a neat freak!" she laughed.
"So what do you think of him?" 'I think you asked this of me already.I told you before,I think he's okay as a friend,but I've only known him for like half a day,so I can't say.You,however,had better be my room mate at college or else!"Pan laughed.
"Hey Pan?" "Yea?" "You're Japanese,right?" "Yea.Why do you ask?" "Well."
Lyric fidgeted as though embarrassed,but finally spoke up. "Would you teach me a few japanese words?Like yes and no,or even some bad words would be helpful!"
Pan laughed until she cried.Whatever she had expected of her,Lyrics' asking for Japanese lessons was NOT one of the actions she had expected!
~~~N POV~~~~
'Crap she saw me naked,crap she saw me naked,crap she saw me naked!
Oh KUSO! damn it all to Hell!!'
Neo muttered while showering.
'Well,at least there's nothing she can be surprised about anymore,' he thought.He banged his head on the wall.'Yea,like that's helpful,' he muttered sarcastically.
~~~~~~~~P POV~~~~~~~
Neo screams like a girl...hehhe!Aye,better not think about it before I start laughing front of Lyric 'for no reason' again.Lyric wants Japanese lessons/I wonder when this happened...
I wonder now if she always wanted to learn Japanese or if this is a very recent thing with her.
I guess I should ask.In the short time I've known her,she's been very upfront with me.
Funny,even Bra wasn't like that.She always seemed to beat around the bush,she was never direct.... Now ponder why....
~~~~~~~~~Dreams are real....all you have to do is just believe...~~~~`
Going to sleep that night,Pan would have had a peaceful night if it hadn't been for a very unusual dream she had dreamt......
(In italics is the dream.If it doesn't show up,someone tell me how to make it so the italics and bold will show up in the writing,please!)
Pan was standing alone in a deep forest,or so she felt.
She was standing...on water?!
On a pond,a clear one,and slowly but surely she started to walk across the top of the water.She wasn't floating either,that was what made it so eerie.Her hair was long,reaching to her waist,and she was wearing a dark blue kimono with a pink petal print on the sleeve that flowed out behind her.
She heard a strangely calming tune that sounded like music,but it was unlike anything she had heard except for one song.It was like a melody made by a gentle beating of light rainfall.She couldn't express it in words,for none were made that could express how she felt as she listened to this song.All she knew was that she felt...almost...sad...........
If she listened carefully,she could hear a song being sung by a relatively pleasant and strong,but sorrowful voice.
She didn't realize it then,but she was the one singing....
~~~ (drumroll) (rainfall bells)
Koi wo shite
Owari wo tsuge
chikau koto wa kara ga saigo no Heartbreak
Sakura sae kaze no naka de Yurete
yagate hana wo sakasu yo....
~~ she didn't realize she was the one singing that same line until much later,when she woke up and thought about it enough to write it down and remember it.
She continued to sing that same line,pausing only wen it was necessary to hear the song,then she let the melody fall naturally from her lips once more.
She remembered that when the ending of the beginning of that song came once again,Trunks came out of nowhere and kissed her passionately.A burst of color came and surrounded them,like the petals of some pink,orange,yellow,and red flowers.
She remembered pulling away from him quickly,and letting fall one blue tear as she slowly faded away from him along with the beautifully sorrowful melody.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~end of dream~~~~
Pan woke up in a cold sweat.She slowly put a hand up to her cheek,where here index finger gently made contact with one tear coming out of her right eye.
Gasping,she pulled the covers off and headed for the kitchen after she had retrieved her little green notebook.
She sat down at the kitchen table and hurriedly tried to write down every emotion she felt and detail about that dream as best as she could.She tried to slow down,but she feared that the more she did,the more she would forget of the dream.She had to remember it,she just HAD to! Why was she crying?And more importantly WHY did Trunks kiss her?!
Pan thought,but eventually knew that it was hopeless to try and make sense of a dream. She didn't want to tell anyone,especially not Lyric,about this dream. Dreams were given to you for a reason,so she felt,you dream about them,YOU and no one else.That means they were meant for YOU and YOU ALONE to know!
She gasped when she heard what sounded like Neos' voice,but deeper.
"Pan?Is that you?" came the bemused tone in Neos' voice as he slowly made his way over to Pan.Looking her in the face,he nodded slowly.
"Yup,it's you," he said jokingly."My eye sight may be blurry,but there is no way in hell my sister has short black hair instead of long green!"
He walked over to the bar,where he started to brew himself some coffee.
"Want some?" he asked politely but sleepily.Pan shook her head. "No,"
Neo smiled."You know,I make this coffee for my sister.I don't touch the stuff.Nasty," he replied,making a face.Pan giggled and turned back to her writing.
"Have a bad dream?" he said sympathetically.
Pan nodded."Mmmm,not so much bad as it was puzzling."
Neo shook his head in response."You want to talk about it,or keep it to yourself?I usually keep mine a secret.I don't even dare to write about them sometimes,because Lyric gets into my stuff," he joked.Pan smiled.
"Well,I didn't,but..."
She immediately told him about everything she could remember of the dream, the kimono,the deep,green forest,the walking on water,the song,and even Trunks!
"Wow.That's one short but interesting dream," Neo complimented."It's very complex,though.My sister is the one who usually understands dreams,not me,but if I had to say anything about it...well,do you like this 'Trunks' guy in actual life?"
"Um,I used to,but not anymore!"
"I see," "What do you see!??" "Are you sure you're really over this guy?" "What do you mean,am I sure?!Of course I am!" "Okay okay,don't get so touchy,yeesh!All I'm saying is that this dream is expressing some very deep feelings...
I'm going back tp bed now,okay?You,in the meanwhile,should either go back to bed or stay up for as long as you dare.If I were you,though,I'd think on that dream fo a while in bed,"
Neo smiled.
He left her side and went to his room,leaving behind a deeply confused Pan.
'Think about my dream?In bed?That might...actually be a good idea...Where'd he...?!How'd he get so..sympathetic all of a sudden?Was he actually always like that and I never saw it?Wow...this guy has layers...'
Pan went back to sleep once she had made sure to write down as many of the lyrics as she could remember .
(AN: which was the beginning:The only part that was ever heard,since it repeated,remember?)
Pan remembered that her last thought before she fell asleep was,
'I can translate it later.For Neo...since he..*snore* asked....'
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I don't own 'Sakura Drops' by Utada Hikaru either!Review,won't ya?This is the second chap since this vacation started! I know it's short,but it was requested!!
Review aplenty!It may be short,but I worked hard on it,honest!
