Coffee and Cigarettes
"I got to know
I got to know why
whenever you're near
I'm on a natural high
you got to show
you got to show why
whenever we meet
I never can say goodbye"
Hitomi Kanzaki was all alone.
But it hadn't always been that way. Just the other day she had had a job, a boyfriend and a place to live. Sure, the job hadn't been the best paying and maybe her boyfriend did cheat on her and then kick her out of the apartment that they had shared for 3 months. But, it had at least been something....
"Now what am I going to do?"
She surveyed the empty street with its soaked pavement, resigned and dreary. She shivered as fresh rain drops started to drop from the gray sky and rapidly soaked through her thin blouse.
"This has just not been my day."
The sun filtered slowly through the filmy drapes of Van Fanel's high rise apartment. The gray morning caused iridescent splashes of light to play over the walls and on his face slowly forcing him to wake. His thick lashed ruby eyes opened slowly, narrowing at the invasion of light from the window. He turned over to his side, burying his face in the goose down pillow.
"It's too damn early."
He wasn't surprised to hear quiet tinkling laughter from the other side of the bed. Celena had always been a morning person. Even on rainy days like today. Van used to like her laugh, her clear cerulean blue eyes. But...things changed. And the certain red eyed Adonis that he had noticed hanging around Celena was only one of those changing things.
'What I wouldn't give to be anyone else right now. Anyone...'
[Author's Notes: I guess I'm trying my hand at this again. And YES, before anyone asks I WILL also be working on "I'll Protect You" but I just needed my inspiration back and the time to use the inspiration in. So..yeah. We'll see how this goes.]
