2. chapter The morning after

Although Anna was awake, she didn't move. She wanted to enjoy this feeling as long as she could. She felt warm, save and loved. This were some of the things the Itako ever wanted to feel. Not alone, not cold, not unloved.

But she knew they couldn't stay like this forever. It was Yoh's birthday today, an sooner or later his grandparents would search him. She slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was the smiling face of Yoh.

Anna looked at him confused:

"What? What's so funny?"

"Ohayo", he said, ignoring her question. "Did you sleep well?"

"Yes, I did. Now, would you be so polite to give me some privacy to change my clothes?" The brown haired boy was sure he saw a small blush on Anna's checks.

"Sure!" Yoh grinned at her, stood up and left the room. Outside he leaned against the door and smiled again. 'His' Anna was back.

The smile left his face as he remembered what his grandparents said about Anna. He ever thought they liked her. Yoh didn't want to see them now, but he had no choice. It was his birthday and they want to see him, perhaps to give him a present. That was the reason why he is here now.

"But", he thought, "the best present I've ever got (or get????) was the last night and this morning..."

----------------------

After he changed his clothes he decided to have a look how Anna is now. He knocked and opened her door.

"Hey Anna, how are you?"

"Fine", was the short answer. Yoh could tell she didn't want to see his grandparents either. "Wanna stay here?" Yoh asked. "I just go downstairs, say good morning and tell them we've to take the first train back to Tokyo, OK?"

Anna was relieved. Seeing 'them' was the last thing she wanted now.

"Okay", she said. "But hurry, the next train leaves in an hour. Don't forget to get your bag ready. I'll talk to Tamao and tell her we'll have to leave soon. I already packed my bag."

"Hai!" And Yoh left her room. "I was right", he thought. "She doesn't wan to see them. Perhaps we can celebrate my b-day at home- just the two of us. Everyone else is gone: Ren, Jun, Horohoro and Pilica are at home, Manta and his parents are on holiday, Faust and Ryu train in the mountains and the ghosts have a barbecue party this weekend. Perfect."

He entered the living room. Yohmei and Kino were already there. They smiled as everything was Okay. For a moment Yoh wanted to tell them that Anna heard what they said an how angry he is about it, but then he remembered that Anna wouldn't be happy about it. Not at all. She doesn't share her problems which other persons. Perhaps, the young Shaman thought, just with me.

"Good morning Yoh" Yohmei greeted. "Did you have a good night?".

Yoh couldn't avoid a smile. "Yes, thanks!"

"So", Kino added, "are you ready to unpack your present?" The presents! Yoh nearly forgot them. He nodded and took a step towards them.

Here it is. I think you will like it!"

With this words Yohmei gave him an envelope. Yoh took it and looked at it from all directions. What could it be?

"Open it!" Kino said.

"OK", Yoh said and opened the envelope. Inside was a piece of paper. Just one, with something handwritten on it. Yoh took the page and started to read:

'Dear Yoh,

It's your 14 birthday (In the Manga he is 13, isn't he? Does anybody now Anna's b-day?) now, so we, your grandparents, decided to give you more 'space' in your life.

This is a 'coupon', a coupon to marry every girl you want to. She just have to be an Shaman. This coupon also release you from the engagement with Anna.

But please don't tell her now. Wait until you are the Shaman King, because she have to train you until then.

Happy B-day!

KinoYohmei'

Yoh couldn't believe what he just had read. He had never thought that he once could be that angry at someone. He glared at Yohmei and Kino, took the paper and tear it into two pieces.

"No!" he said with anger in his voice. "I won't. For me, Anna isn't a doll you can play with. I'll stay with her. So you should chance your attitude towards her. We'll leave now. Good bye!" Yoh turned around, opened the door and closet it behind him. He could hear a 'but' of his grandfather, but he didn't want to listen. He ran upstairs, towards Anna's room. But she already waited for him in front of her room.

"Hi. How was it? Did you get anything interesting?"

"No", he smiled. "Nothing interesting. Let's go, we've to catch our train!"

"But Yoh, did you already get your bag ready?"

"Me? I didn't even unpacked it!"

"Typical..." Anna muttered. "Like a child", she thought, "if you see him you wouldn't believe he is already 14."

"Come on, let's go!" To Anna's surprise, he took her hand and lead her through the big house to the front door (They already have their bags!).There he turned around to face Anna.

"Ehmmm..." He said an looked uncertain at her and her hand he was still holding. But he didn't had to say anything else. Anna understood. Sh eoften knew what Yoh wanted to say. It was like if there is an invisible band between them.

"You can leave your hand there, if you want to." She didn't look at him, but Yoh could tell she blushed a little. And Anna was sure he was smiling now. Like this they continued their way to the station.

Got it!! It's just a small one, because I haven't that much time at the moment. I've got holidays, but somehow everyone thinks I have time and wants me to do something for him or to visit him or go somewhere with him... And I have to do all my homework... Is anybody good at French??? I'm not very good at it... TT

I've got an idea for another chapter. So if you want another one, please REVIEW!!! If you've got an idea, please tell me!! Thanks! m( )m
