A/N: This song is Invisible by Clay Aiken. I wish I could have enough money
to buy his CD! This plot is gonna be a little strange okay? Just warning
you guys. Because I usually write this when I'm depressed, angry. Flames
are not welcomed unless they happen to be constructive criticsm. In this
case, it would be greatly appreciated. And I'm so sorry for the late
update, school just started!
Lost.
Her ruby eyes looked lost as the golden gate creaked. After several minutes, she realised she wasn't going to get in. It didn't matter to her anymore. If she was going to be banned from heaven, then so be it. Hikaru sighed; today had brought back many bittersweet memories. Too many memories...
~What are you doing tonight?
I wish I could be a fly on your wall~
She closed her eyes and leaned against the gate for support. She thought she had managed to forget them already! Yet seeing them brought back so many memories.
Memories of her dueling with her brothers.
"Don't give up now Hikaru-chan!" panted Kakeru.
"I won't give up otou-chan!" she replied equally breathless. She planted a swift kick on his side. She missed, as she wasn't fast enough.
"That was close." He answered, tauntingly.
She frowned, then she striked. It was so fast that Kakeru didn't know what hit him. He fell to the ground with a 'thud'. "Ow! You're getting good at this Hikaru."
"Gomen nasai Otou-chan! Are you okay?" She asked concern, blaming herself, why did she have to hit him so hard anyway? She should have lost! Then Kakeru wouldn't get injured! "Hush... It's not your fault Hikaru."
"Otou...." she said, hugging him.
~Are you really alone
Still in your dreams ~
Memories of Umi and Fuu as they celebrated her birthday with her.
"Don't open your eyes yet Miss Hikaru!" Fuu's gentle voice rang out as she led the blindfolded Hikaru into the room.
"Okay, you can open your eyes now!" another familiar voice gabbled excitedly. She tore off her blindfold and was amazed by the spectacular sight that greeted her. Her plain and dull room was filled with streamers, handmade birthday cards, and photos in elegant frames, which she suspected was the work of Fuu-chan.
"Wow! How long did you spend on this?" she asked touched.
"You're worth it." reassured Umi, "And now for the big surprise!"
Satoru, Kakeru and Maseru came in with party hats and big red noses pushing a cart, above it was the most fantastic cake Hikaru has ever seen. She giggled at the appearance of her brothers. "The cake looks so expensive!" She added worriedly...
"I made it." Umi confessed.
"You did? Wow! You're great Umi! And you too Fuu! And my brothers!" The cake was two-tier. The first layer was a winter wonderland, white cream and blue icing formed a beautiful snow scene in which many animals had fun skating in. The second layer was a picture of Hikaru smiling. She was so impressed. And touched. Fuu produced a gorgeous dress, it was a simple white gown, with laced edges, and the cloth was silky. "Wow..." she gasped, stunned.
"Thank you everybody... " She added finally, sniffling.
~Why can't I bring you into my life
What would it take to make you see that I'm alive~
Memories of her and Eagle talking about anything under the sun.
She had always trusted and liked Eagle; sometimes she even wondered what her true feelings for him were. Friends? More than friends... He was the last person that she got to see before she died. She would never forget that moment, the shock on his face...
~Flashback~
She had agreed to meet Eagle outside the school gate that morning; she had something important to talk about. But she was running late from her biology lesson. Seeing him in sight, she made a dash towards him. That familiar grin was plastered his face as he looked on with amusement at the panting Hikaru.
"Slow down! So what do you wanna talk about that's so serious?" he asked, his eyes twinkling.
"Well Eagle... if there's someone you think you like, what should I do?" she asked, desperately wishing that her flaming face would stop blushing.
"I'll..." he sighed. "I'll confess and if it doesn't work out, I'll just watch her from a far, always there for her, even if she doesn't need Me." he finished wistfully. Damn he was such a hypocrite! Why didn't he take his own advice then? She was right next to him for god's sake!
~If I was invisible
Then I could watch you in your room
If I was invisible
I would make you mine tonight~
Then he remembered. If she was asking him... the one she actually likes must be- He sighed again. "Is my answer what you're looking for Hikaru-chan?"
She was actually taken aback by his answer. The usually easy-going Eagle actually likes someone! "Yep! I just didn't know you actually fancied anyone Eagle. So who is it?" She piped, innocently.
He went pale and decided to keep silent. "Okay! I won't ask you! But I bet she's real pretty! I know... Presea!"
He shook his head; it was time to change topics. "Are you ready to go home now?" "Hold on, I'll go make a call. Wait for me okay?"
She ran across the road, but then the car came, it moved so fast! She couldn't run, she couldn't dodge and her mind was filled of no one but Lantis... She felt sharp spasms of pain on her side, as she the world spun out of control, the last thing she saw was Eagle running towards her.
~If hearts were unbreakable
Then I can tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest girl
If I was invisible
Wait... I already am.~
But she was just a ghost now... they can't see her, they can't feel her, they can't even feel her! Of course her most precious memories were of her moments with Lantis....
~I saw your face in a crowd
I called out your name
You don't hear a sound~
He was always there. Just... there. She could picture his features as clear as day. Those amethyst eyes that always managed to take her breath away, those lips, his ears, his nose, even his raven hair... all deeply imprinted in her mind. She would never ever be able to confess what she truly felt... to him...
~I keep tracing your steps
Every move that you make~
She remembered once when she had fallen asleep; he had placed his jacket over her. It was a small gesture, but it meant the world to her. On her birthday although he didn't appear, he had sent her a teddy bear hugging a white tulip, her favorite flower...
~Wish I could be what goes through your mind
Wish you could touch me with the colours of your life.~
All these little things, somehow she managed to get past the cold and emotionless mask he had on. She was his only friend with the exception of Primera... No one else had bothered about him. Primera had done a good job chasing away any potential love interest. Eve if it was just a kendo match, or even if he sent her home, all these little things turned out to be a lot more...
She didn't realise how much she truly loved him. But it was all too late now.
~I reach out
But you don't even see me~
"HIKARU SHIDOU! " A loud voice boomed out shaking her out of her little daydream.
"God?" she questioned, looking puzzled at Mokona.
"Puu! Pu Pu Puu Pu Puuuuuu!" he shot back.
"Heaven forbids distracted Angels. You obviously still wish to linger among the mortals. Very well. I'll give you 2 weeks then I expect you to be totally focused!" And even though Hikaru couldn't see him, she was sure he was smiling.
"Domo Arigatou Gozaimasu!" She replied as she tried to brush off her tears. "Take Mokona with you. And you're welcomed."
"Hai." she turned back and flew straight down, enjoying the night view for once. She hasn't noticed how pretty the sky was from there.
~Even when I'm screaming
Baby, you don't hear me
I am nothing without you
Just a shadow passing through~
`She had two whole weeks... it seemed so far away yet it was such a short time...
~If I was invisible
Then I could watch you in your room
If I was invisible
I would make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I can tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest girl
If I was invisible
Wait... I already am.~
She was going to see... Lantis.
