Chapter Two – I just don't trust her
Kira stared at Mia, a shocked look on her face. "You live here?" (I don't exactly care for my grammer, ok? This is just how I do it, not like I'm handing in a paper or anything ^_^) Kira couldn't help but gawk at the large house which Mia had just driven them in front of. "Yep. I inherited it from my grandfather" Mia replied proudly, a grin on her face. "All alone?" Kira questioned, staring at the house, an awed look on her face. "Most of the time, yeah. But some friends of mine stay with me when they have don't have shool for long periods of time. Like, spring break, which is coming up soon. The end of the week, I think." Kira stopped paying attention, and looked around the large property. "Well, are you coming in?" Kira snapped out of her daydream, and followed Mia inside.

(next day, at hana'o high *is that right? * after school) "So, Cye, are you going to Mia's over spring break??" Ryo asked, a tiny grin on his face. Cye nobbed, and replied "Of course I am. We hardly ever see her anymore." Ryo nobbed in agreement, and the two began walking towards the exit, where Kento stood waiting for them. "Sage and Rowen went on ahead. 'Said you guys were talking too long." Kento told them. The three began walked towards the school parking lot, where Kento's jeep was. His pride and joy was, of course, a total mess. "Kento, you're gonna clean it before we go to Mia's, right?" Cye asked, as he opened the door. Various things fell out, making Kento laugh nervously. "Yeah...." Cye rolled his eyes. Ryo jumped into the back seat, and said "Well, let's get moving. We've got training to do."

(Next day, again, at Mia's house) Mia was busy making brekfeast. After inviting Kira over for dinner, she had discovered that the girl had just arrived in Tokyo, and hadn't even found a place to stay yet. Mia, of course, being courteous and all, insisted she stay with her. Kira had argued a bit, but finally agreed, and took one of the extra guest rooms. Though, not one of the guys' rooms. Mia's large house still had a few extra rooms besides those three. Kira was currently outside, practising some sort of Martial arts. Mia shook her head and sighed "Why is it, that everytime I meet someone new, they're always some sort of fighter?" Shaking her head again, Mia flipped the pancakes, and took two plates from the cupboard, and set them down on the counter. Breakfeast was almost ready.
Kira stepped into the room, and grinned at the sight of the pancakes. "I knew I smelt something..." She said, crossing the room to sit at the table. Mia shook her head and said "You almost as bad as Kento." Kira raised an eyebrow "Oh? Who's he?" Mia chuckled and responded "A friend of mine. He's the human garbage disposal." Kira grinned wickedly and said "Now that I wouldn't mind seeing." "Trust me, the first time you see it, you almost wanna vomit." Kira smirked but didn't respond. Mia divided the pancakes up onto the two plates set out, and walked towards the table "Here." She said, setting a plate in front of Kira. "Thanks." Kira responded, reaching for the maple syrup that had already been put in the middle of the table. Mia reached for the butter, and they began their brekfeast in silence.
"Are you sure you don't mind me staying here while I'm in town?" Kira asked, while bringing her dishes to the sink "Of course not. I've told you that already. Besides, where would you go?" Kira shrugged, and replied "I dunno, somewhere, I suppose." "Then consider 'somewhere', here." Kira grinned, and glanced over at her "Even when these guy friends of yours come over?" Mia had the grace to actually blush, causing Kira's grin to widen. "I knew it, you like one of 'em." Mia looked at her and rolled her eyes "If I did, I don't think I'd tell you." Kira shrugged "Fair enough." Mia came over with her dishes, and placed them in the sink. She turned around to clear off the table, and said "I noticed you don't have anything with you. Did you bring anything to Tokyo?" Kira frowned for a moment, and then replied "I sorta left home without telling anyone. I was in such a hurry, I just took some money and left." Mia put everything away, and asked "How long ago was that?" "Uh..." Kira looked a little embarassed "Well?" Mia questioned "A month ago." Kira finally replied. Mia's jaw dropped. "And you've been wearing that the whole time?" Kira's embarassment seemed to increase, and she nobbed. Mia suddenly grinned, and said "That's it then, I'm taking you shopping." Kira's jaw dropped.
At the mall, which Kira had practically faught against going to, Mia practically threw everything at her. Kira said no to almost everything. "Look, I'm paying for it all, so just choose somethings, alright?" Mia asked, slightly annoyed. Kira sighed, and nobbed after noticing a different store across the one they were in. "I think I'm gonna check out stuff over there." Kira said, and took off in that direction. Mia nobbed her head, before grabbing a few things, and putting them on the counter. She took out one of her credit cards, and paid for it.
Kira looked around the new store she was in. It was way different to the one Mia had dragged her to. Hardly anything was tight, and there were only few skirts. Kira grabbed a few pairs of baggy jeans, and headed towards the change room. Well, at least she tried to get to the change rooms, some blonde sort of bumped into her. "Oh, sorry." He said. Kira couldn't help but do a double take. A guy? On first glance, she had thought it was a girl. Well, guys were aloud to shop too, right? "No problem." She muttered in response "Sage, hurry up." A girl whined near the front desk. So, he was here with a girl then? Made sense. "Coming." Sage replied. The blonde headed towards the front with a quick glance at her. Kira wasn't even paying attention anymore, and had already entered a stall to try on some pants.
After Mia had finished paying for her things, she crossed to where Kira had gone. "Mia?" She heard a familiar voice ask, sounding slightly shocked. She turned to see Sage standing behind her "Sage! How are you?" Sage grinned, and replied "I'm doing good. How about yourself?" "Same here. On another date?" Sage sighed, and shook his head "No, I'm just assisting a girl from school." "So you're on a date." Mia stated. Sage sighed again. "Hey, Mia, I'm done." Mia turned around, again, to see Kira standing there, a few pairs of jeans in her arms. "Glad to see you finally chose something." Mia handed her credit card to Kira, who wordlessly walked towards the front counter. "A friend of yours?" Sage questioned, glancing at the young woman's retreating form "Yeah. I met her a few days ago, actually. She's staying with me, at the moment." Sage gave her a questioning look "How did that happen?" Mia began telling Sage how she had met Kira.
Kira stepped up to the counter, to purchase her items. The girl that was here with that Sage guy was in front of her. She seemed annoyed, and jealous, as she kept looked at Mia who was talking casually with him. She muttered something under her breath, and continued to glare. "Miss, here's your card." The woman at the counter said. The girl turned and accepted it, as her things were then put into bags. "Have a nice day." The woman said, as the girl walked away without a word. The woman looked at Kira and smiled "Is that all for you?" Kira nobbed her head and placed the jeans on the counter "Here." Kira handed Mia's card to the woman. Looking back to where Mia and Sage were talking, Kira wanted to start laughing. The girl was now holding onto Sage's arm, like her life depended on it. He, in turn, sighed, and said something to Mia, before looking straight at her. Kira held his gaze, and smirked. He's trying to read my aura, she thought with a grin, she shook her head 'No' and turned back around, to take Mia's card back, and the bag full of her new pants. "Thanks." She said with a smile. The woman nobbed, and turned to the next customer. As she walked towards Mia, Sage, and that other girl, Sage was looking at her causiously. "I'm done, Mia." Kira handed the credit card back to Mia "Well, we're not done here yet." Kira's sighed in resignation. She never did like shopping. Sage said his farewell, before him and the girl left. Mia dragged Kira off for more shopping.

Sage sat on his bed, a frown on his face. Mia had said that her new friend, 'Kira', had just recently come to Tokyo. What does she want here? Sage asked himself, a puzzled look on his face. Even more puzzling to him, though, was why he couldn't sense anything from her. Good or bad, no aura what-so-ever. It was as if she had somehow blocked that from him. Why would she be doing that? Whatever her reason was, it couldn't be good. Whether or not Mia trusted her as a friend. Sage sighed, and flopped down onto his back, on his bed, and mumbled. "I just don't trust her."
