Lol. I'm in a writing spree. (Thanks to those who review) (ADORE DEVIL_URD)
(AND NOIR) I'm writing chapter 8 and 9 at the same time and, for those who
read the fic the first time I posted it, I'll remind you that I'm basically
keeping the same content. I'm totally re-writing the chapters. And the next
ones are new to the story! I'm changing the content after this. Watch me.
;P
The bug ch.7
[Urd's PoV]
I woke up late that morning. I think that confession was what I needed to feel at peace and finally get some sleep. The problem now was: Should I tell her how I feel? And if I do, how is she going to react? There's no way she could love _me_.... not after what I put her through....
I sighed, again wondering where she could be, and got up. I decided that the best for now was to expose my problem to Belldandy, without mentioning Mara, of course. I got to the living room.
She was drinking tea with her boyfriend, the kid and the weirdo. I entered, but didn't bother to sit down. Belldandy's soft eyes examined me. "Still not feeling well?" She asked sadly.
I shook my head no. I had been feeling like shit lately, even if I hadn't had a single drop of alcohol since the Mara episode. I even fainted more than once in the last days.... and it made me more and more worried about *her*. I suddenly realised everyone was staring at me with very concerned eyes and immediately felt _very_ uncomfortable.
I needed an excuse to get out of here, when I remembered why I came in in the first place. "Belldandy, can I talk to you...." I eyed the three others "....in private?"
Peorth, who was now uselessly floating around the room, came upside-down face to face with me, a cat-like smile spreading across her features. "Is there some secret you don't want us to know?" she asked teasingly. I stared at her, not bothering to answer and I must've I looked horribly sick and tiered because her grin immediately erased itself and she was back on her seat by the table.
"Sure Urd, we'll go outside" She answered softly, getting up. As we left I could hear Keiichi whispering.
"What's wrong with her?"
"I wish I knew." Was, surprisingly, Peorth answer.
"I never saw her that depressed." I heard Skuld say before we were too far to hear the rest of their conversation.
****
Outside, Belldandy waited for me to begin. So I did. "... I thought really hard about this one. There is someone... I think...No... I know I'm in love with."
She smiled. "But that's great Urd! Why are you in such a mood?"
I attempted to return her smile, but it was no use. I couldn't even smile to her... "The problem is: I can't love that person..."
"Oh? May I ask why?" She really seemed confused.
"I'm not allowed." I said flatly as I sat on the huge rock by the pond.
"Oh?" She sat beside me.
"It's against the rules." I crossed my arms around my knees, drawing them close to my body.
"The rules?" She frowned. "Since when do you care about the rules?" She attempted to make me smile and she succeeded.
I rested my head on her shoulder. "What should I do?"
"Tell him." She stated firmly. I cringed hearing the _him_... but I know I should've expected that. "Well, what could you loose?"
"Friendship?" I lifted my head to lock my eyes with hers.
"If he really is your friend, and even if he does not feel the same about you, it shouldn't change a thing." She was so confident, I almost believed what she said.
I sighed. Having this partly off my chest was a little relief. "Thanks, Bell."
"You're welcome, Urd." She kept smiling that sweet smile of hers. We heard the phone ring.
"Skuld? Can you get it, please?" Belldandy yelled.
"Sure, big sister!" We heard the rather loud reply coming from the shrine.
My sister turned back to me. "So, can I know who-" She began, but was interrupted: "Belldandyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!! It's Father!!!!!!!!!! He wants to talk to yyyoooouuuuu!" We heard Skuld yell at the top of her lungs.
"Great! What doses HE wants?" I groaned and got up.
"She has quite a voice." Belldandy noted as she stood up too.
With that, we headed back to the shrine.
****
Belldandy took the phone as soon as she was inside.
(Author Note: The "..." is Kami-Sama says on the phone.)
"Hello, father." She said politely.
...
"Yes." She nodded even if she knew he couldn't see her.
...
She frowned. "No, she's OK. The bug died within her." I knew instantly that it was about Mara and was suddenly very interested.
...
Her frown deepened. "No she, left four days ago." I was getting worried... Why would he want to know where she is?
...
Her eyes widened and she clenched the telephone with both hands. "WHAT?!?! But that is IMPOSSIBLE!" Worry isn't the word to describe how I felt. It was way beyond that.
...
She gained back her composure, but the frown didn't disappear. "Yes "
...
"I know." She sighed.
...
"We'll do what we can."
...
"Yes, father."
...
"Goodbye."
"What happened?" I asked as soon as Belldandy hung up.
"Hild called Heaven." Belldandy answered.
"What? Why?" That caught Peorth's attention.
Belldandy played looked at feet, she looked almost afraid to answer. We stood in silence, waiting for her to explain what was going on, when finally, I couldn't take it anymore. "What happened to Mara?" I whispered.
Bell looked up, tears slowly running down her cheeks. "It seems like she.... completely disappeared."
