Oh yeah this is going to be i guess a sort of HaoxAnnaxYoh fic, but I'm leaning more towards a Hao x Anna Ficcy. Also my nickname is Mimi so thanks Mimi for reviewing with my nickname, hahah just kidding, hopefully I'll get more as I continue will my story! Hehe anyways here we go!
Disclaimer: I don't own Shaman King nor do I owe the 1080 beads, sorry I can't control those spirits.
" That's a present from Yoh….give it back." Anna took a step forward.
" Tch, tch, I thought you knew better Anna…now don't tell me you are actually considering this worthless piece of silver as a present fit for you."
" Yes I do….It's beautiful…" Hao jumped off of the sealing of the window and walked up to her still clutching the tiny necklace in his hands with such loathing you would think he wanted to break it.
" You are worth more than this Anna…he is trying to buy you, trying to buy your love that quite honestly you and I both know doesn't exist." Hao brought his hand up and caressed her cheek. Anna slapped it away.
" Stop acting as if Yoh is as cynical as you are Hao…Yoh is a loving and gentle person, he is not trying to but my love, he is just trying to make me happy-" " With all the wrong actions I may add, he's going about it in the wrong way, only I know you Anna, and you know that is the real truth."
Anna turned around, getting ready to give him a BIG slap.
" If you are going to slap me, you know that I'm going to counter it and then you'll be right where I want you."
Anna hissed and with great speed swung her body and hand around aiming for his face. As he had boasted he caught her hand and pulled her in so close to his body it looked as though they were hanging onto one another for dear life. Anna struggled at little, but eventually gave up.
" Anna…just promise me, you won't let this necklace kill you…that you won't let it kill….us." Anna looked up at Hao in shock, he wasn't looking back down, instead he was looking straight avoiding her gaze purposely.
Anna just gave a weak nod against his chest before slipping away from his grasp, she looked down at the hand bearing her gift from Yoh, she did not need to use words, he opened it, unwillingly at first, but sub coming to her intensive glare, he chuckled a little, muttering something incoherent but sounding like " evil median."
Anna looked at him and he got the note, she turned around and he clipped the necklace for her, Yoh, the one who bought her the gift didn't even get to put it on her. She turned around letting him kiss her before heading back down the stairs. On her way out of the door she bumped into Yoh, who was overly concerned.
" Ah!-Anna I was worried you were taking so long…did something happen?" Yoh looked at her body for any signs of confrontation.
" No Yoh, I just misplaced the necklace…I found it though, as you can see….let's go I'm starving." Yoh after getting over the fact that she had misplaced his present to her in the same day she had received it, became cheerful again and left with her by his side.
At the restaurant Anna did not get that much to eat, she already felt bad about him buying a seemingly expensive piece of jewelry, that she did not want to bill to be too high.
" Anna are you okay? You're not eating your food."
" I'm fine Yoh, I'm just not that hungry."
"Oh…."
A few awkward seconds passed by before Yoh spoke up.
" So I see you got Morty working the house again."
" Yes, Shorty is very handy to have around for being my cleaning slave."
Yoh let out a chuckle. He looked at Anna and every time he really looked at Anna he was stunned by her beauty.
" Yoh, just because I'm not eating doesn't mean you don't have to…"
" Oh, ah right, hehe sorry, actually I was just admiring your-" " I have to go to the bathroom…." Anna stood up abruptly and left in the direction of the bathroom, leaving a bewildered Yoh behind.
Anna was away from Yoh's sight, leaned against a near-by wall and let out a sigh. A waiter passing by, looking concerned seemed as if he was about to come up to Anna and ask what was wrong but Anna beat him to it.
" Beat it, I don't need your help." The waiter frightened of her cold glare and hard voice left in a scurry. Anna turned around and saw Yoh from a far, he obviously worried but he still put on that cheerful smile. Nothing about it was malicious at all.
" Why do I choose him?" She looked down at the necklace, she wanted to take it off, but she loved it, and in some way loved Yoh…yet that is not where her true loyalties lie.
Anna walked back to the table and kept up with the diminutive talks every now and then, when they got back to the house they found Morty lying on the floor asleep, which a basket full of Laundry spread out on the floor right next to him.
Yoh rushed over to check on Morty thinking he was under attack, but Anna ignored the whole situation and walked up the stairs.
" Shorty is just fine, he's just passed out from all the work I gave him." Yoh turned to look at Anna then back at Morty realizing that what she said was in fact true, he let out a laugh and picked him up.
" I'm going to take him to the guest room…" Yoh started to walk but then stopped. He turned around and looked at Anna with Sincere eyes. " Goodnight Anna…and Happy-Birthday." He then walked away.
Anna stared at his retreating form for awhile before heading upstairs to change.
After cleaning up and putting on her night clothes, she went over to her window and looked out, he told her to wait for him, and she wanted to, but she had this string urge to do something else.
She left her window and walked down the hall, knocking softy on Yoh's door, he told her to come in and sounded really shocked.
She entered quietly not looking at him, not even when he got up and pulled her face to look at him. He looked down and brought her hands up to see, in her right hand there was the same necklace she was clutching it aggressively.
" Anna…do you not like my gift?" Anna did not respond. Yoh backed away a few inches and looked down. " I'm sorry…I thought you would have liked it, I can get you something else if you--" Yoh was cut short because Anna had kissed him on the cheek.
A faint blush appeared on Yoh's face, but everything was hidden on Anna's, she turned around and left the room, one again leaving Yoh shocked and confused, yet this time he smiled a really really big smile as he layed down to go to sleep.
Anna entered her room swiftly, not wanting to be seen, she tried to get under her covers and hide herself….too late.
"……I'm confused….really."
Anna kept her mouth shut.
" I guess, Haha you let him trick you…I must say it was sweet Anna, you actually kissed him first….although I must say I am relieved you didn't kiss him on the lips, least I know you haven't betrayed me….yet."
Anna flipped the covers off of herself.
" Don't you dare take that tone with me Asakura Hao, I can do whatever I want I am not in alliance with you, or anyone for that matter, you have no right to say I will betray you, if I am not with you."
Hao looked at her examining the way she talked, how her heart raced with anger and confusion, worst of all with fear, something Anna never showed.
" You're afraid…"
Anna started at him bemused. " What?" " You heard me. You are scared….what are you scared of?"
" You are a complete idiot…leave my room now."
" Alright I'll leave, I can never deny my Queen to be…" Anna covered herself with the covers once more, she heard footsteps heading towards her and felt something plot on her futon then the window opened and shut, she closed her eyes, trying not to care about what had just happened, for Anna Kinoyama never showed fear.
" He's such an Idiot….I'm not afraid of anything." She looked back down at the necklace she still had in her hand, and held it tighter. " Yoh…."
She pulled back on the covers and saw a box, she opened it and saw something that had amazed her, within it was Hao's oracle bell, and there was a note along with it.
The one thing I need to become Shaman King is not this oracle bell,
The one thing I need is you…
H. A.
Anna folded the paper and held on tight, she looked at both hands, one held Yoh's necklace while the other held Hao's Oracle bell, she stared at both for awhile before tossing one hand to the side.
