Eyes of the Beholder
Chapter 10- Haunt Me
Twelve o'clock the girls left—
One Usagi left—
Alone in the blanket of darkness with contented dreams, nightmares—
It began with a phone call that Rei received. The girls were all fast asleep on there futons, not a care in the world. Finally relieved that nothing was changing, but that was just the beginning of their concerns.
In the darkness her hand flew to the receiver, muttering false words under her breath. Everything that happened that night was certainly a surprise, and everything that didn't happen… pooled guilt into her mind.
"Hello?"
Her voice was soft and quiet, barely above a whisper. For the first time in years she heard a laugh that was long forgotten. A chuckle that was disappearing. Her eyes widen in shock as the phone fell from her hands. A smile appeared on her lips as she dashed for the phone. No longer quiet. No longer caring who was sleeping.
"Where are you?"
Her loud voice woke up the others, but the giddiness in her tone told them that this was important, or it was Mamoru. Ami looked up exasperated as she mumbled something under her breath. Covering the sheets over her head she tried to go back to sleep. Minako on the other hand was just too curious to sleep, she wanted to know what Rei was up to. Her blue eyes peered over Rei's shoulder in confusion as Rei scribbled down a number and an address.
"What's that?" she mouthed, but no one answered.
"Are you coming over here?"
They could hear that soft gentle muffle of a certain person, which gave a them a hint that it wasn't Mamoru. For it was a girl—
"Right now?"
It was a one sided conversation—
"No, be glad! We'll be waiting!"
Rei smiled brightly as she hung up. Everything was perfect—
…
"Who's that?"
…
Usagi stood in front of the mirror just thinking of what she should do. The girls saw her already, and they knew that she was supposedly hitting on there guys. They would be furious with her…she didn't want that. "One step at a Usa" she whispered to herself.
In such a short notice Usagi was able to rent out a small apartment. It was pretty close to everyone else, but then again pretty far too. It was the perfect place, as long as no one knew who or where she was. Who—
A grin formed upon her lips as a certain thought appeared in her mind. Taking a glance at the clock she notice that it was almost four, she had enough time. Time to change—
…
It was Seiya who picked up the phone at a quarter to three, and it was Seiya who found out—
"Usagi's back"
His whispers were silent as he thought of what to do. Memories of there childhood were somewhat of a happy thought. "I wonder how she is…" It was then that Mamoru poked his head into the room. "Who?" he had a coffee mug in his hands. Mamoru's features were so much like Seiya's, just wiser—
"Usagi" he answered simply.
In one quick motion the mug dropped. Spilling the contents over the floor…
"So you remember."
It was like that all night. One guy after the other— Nothing made sense. Sleep took them, but then again that could only make things worse.
A/N- Well one thing is for sure. It's gonna get confusing. So bare yourself! Explanations if needed, just tell me in the review
…
Dreams—
It was nightmare. The tears. The screams. Those eyes. For the first time in his life, he felt bad. Everything happened, happened in a blur. She was crying. He couldn't bare it if she cried, but worst of all he was the one that made her shed those tears. His hands clenched as he looked away. Ashamed. Not knowing what to do. Not knowing what to say.
"I'm sorry…"
He whispered.
She looked up and those eyes stared accusingly. She didn't say a word, but he felt it. He felt her anger.
…
Dreams—
It was a slap across the face, and the burn was imprinted in his mind.
"What did you do that for!"
His yelled caused heads to turn, and that just got him even more furious. "This is not a show!" he roared.
Grumbling slightly he turned his attention back to the small blonde. His eyes soften at her expression. Her eyes cast downwards as her shoulders shook. The tears that fell from her eyes shattered on the floor. His throat tightened just at the sight. A hand flew to the crank of his neck as he considered what to do.
"Listen"
She backed away, silencing him.
…
Dreams—
"I hate you!"
Her eyes burned as she yelled. "I hate you! I hate you! I hate you!"
He stood there in disbelief. Bewilderment filled his mind.
Her eyes were tightly closed. Her hands were balled up into a fist. Her shouts became louder and louder until they were unbearable. He did the only thing he could think off. As she lay there in his arms, tired from all the yelling. Her small whispers were heard. Muffled as they were, he still heard—
"I hate you"
…
Dreams—
It was one thing after another, but after this it was finally the last straw. He knew it was coming. He knew it was going to happen sooner or later. A guy never hits a girl, but here she was giving him one hard one in the stomach. He didn't flinch, he stuttered. He just stood there as she continued to hit him over and over. It hurt, but not at the moment.
"Why?"
…
Back in a certain part of town a soft hum was traveling across the bare grounds. It was a soft melody, gentle in tune, but sad in grace. You could almost picture the notes traveling swiftly through the air. The source came from a small window to the right. Light illumed in the grey skies of morning. When one would peer inside their eyes would land on nymph. Like those in Greek mythology—
Her clear cerulean blue orbs twinkled lightly as the tune grew softer. Her lips pale but somehow pink, golden strands that were mindlessly twirled in the mist of her delicate fingers. The humming soon stopped and was replaced by that dreadful silence. A small grin curved upon her soft duos as she redid her hair.
"How should I do this?" She asked herself.
There was one way…but then again cutting off her hair was certainly out of the question. Her fingers traced the lines that were somewhat invisible among her face. There weren't actually lines, but she somehow just saw them. Reaching out for a piece of paper she began scribbling down ideas—
One—
Contacts—dull blue
Two—
Clothes—T-shirts, and whatnot
Three—
Hair—Tied-up
Four—
Make-up—different
Five—
Jewelry—none
Six—
The pen was now placed between her lips as her shifted. Thinking—she needed more difference, but really she hadn't changed that much. Letting out a sigh she lifted herself from the chair and started to get ready—
That soft melody was now played on a certain station. The voice that sang sounded heavenly—
"Perfect…"
Her voice was wicked in a way. The mirror turned and you could see that there certain was a change—
The girl that once stood there before was no more, for the person that now replaced her was a person that was long forgotten. Her eyes were blue, but somewhat dull. The grey took over that precious blue seas… Her hair tied somewhat messily in a low ponytail. The golden shine had somehow mysteriously vanished. Her skin still smooth and pale, but covered with those itchy cotton fabrics. Make-up was little, just as before, but different.
She wore a sweater that was two sizes too big. A pair of slacks that hung limply by her hips. And across her eyes laid a decent, sophisticated pair of lenses. Dark black framing and somewhat thick in appearance.
"Perfect…absolutely—perfect"
…
Perfection can come in all shapes and sizes, but the moral of everything is beauty is only in the eyes of the beholder…
…
"Perfect…absolutely—perfect"

Summary- …Sorry but no summary this time
Plot- There is plot that I'm using within this story that isn't mine and I certain don't want to take credit for something that I didn't come up with. The story is mine and the plot, but there is a plot within a plot. blinks Any of that make sense? Once this starts to take place I will tell you guys what it is, but the credit goes to Ysienay. Mind you that the writing is mine but the idea is her's. Thank you all, and thank you Ysienay.
