Chapter 11
Just as Meryl spoke, her gun fell out her hands and he whole body lost control, that she fell forward into Vash. Vash caught her. She was still conscious. "Vash…" Meryl began to say now back with her voice, "Vash I didn't mean to.." she stopped. She felt Vash's body trembling against her chest. Gathering her strength she looked up. His eyes were wide and his mouth was slightly opened. He was shocked beyond belief. His hands were shaking and his breath was inconsistent. Meryl felt lost. She didn't no what to say. She stared at Vash wanting his smile to come back. How could she had just let Legato control her body? She felt that she could gain control of herself but she was tied back for some reason. Vash lost his gaze and looked down at the teary Meryl. She was crying silently to herself. All at once he made a decision. He didn't want her to be involved with anything he was to go through. Staring at her his eyes began to lose focus. He was looking at Ren. He gasped and blinked out of the illusion. Meryl was embracing him.
"Don't leave me.." she said as if she read his mind, "Please don't make me worry again..".
Vash pulled away from her. He stared at her as she stared back. He could see how hurt she was. Just pulling away from her he saw her heart tare. His hands were now hanged lose at his sides. His body became weak. He knew why. He was going to leave her after all. He didn't want to but what would happen if she was to get in control of Legato again?! He was powerless to help her just now, how could he help her if it was to happen again?.
"I cant…" Vash found himself saying, "I cant make you come.."
"No! Your not making me come! I want to! Please Vash.. Please don't make me go through this twice! I.. I don't want to see you die all over again.." Meryl said trying to reach for him.
Vash abruptly turned so that she couldn't touch her. He didn't understand what she meant at first. Then he thought of the times he saw her crying like this after his battle with his brother. She'd cry in her sleep. Dreaming about Vash never coming back to her, Dieing, lost or broken. Even after he came back to her those dreams still taunted her at night.
Vash watched her as she slowly took her hand up at her chest gripping her bowtie. Quickly he took her hand and pulled it away from her chest. "Don't worry… I will come back.. I promise" he said in a low tone. His face was expressionless lost still in his thoughts, trying to focus on her now. He didn't want to do this. Of course he didn't! He would never want to see Meryl crying like she did before and he'd never want to see her look like how she does now. Why didn't he just kill the bastard in the first place?!
( I like Knives, not for his butt-hole-ness but because if he were to change I think he'd be awesome!)
It would be all over if he just pulled the trigger. Just watch him die under his already stained hands. Just.. Let his heart tare into millions of pieces. It would have been over. DAMN IT! Why couldn't he just have a normal brother then a psychopath?!.. Why could he… Have saved him.. And Ren?.
Letting go of her he turned and walked out the bar. Meryl watched him slip through the western doors out into the sun. Her feet lost strength and she fell to her knee's. She lifted her hands to her ears, covering them as she hunched over, staring at the floor. She tried to whisper her plea's hoping Vash would come back into the bar and carry her away, but she couldn't speak. Tears swept down her face falling onto the wooden floor boards under her. Her hands slid down onto her face and she began to cry uncontrollably. He was gone.. He left her again..
There was no one in the streets as Vash made his way out to where Meryl, Millie and Vash first entered the darn town. Once everybody knew Vash the Stampede was here they all fled to their house's or maybe even left the town. He kept thinking what he was right. If her took Meryl she'd be in danger. Killed even. Of course he didn't want that! But.. He-. He was cut off from his thoughts when he saw Jake standing in front of the entrance. He was hunched over on his cane smiling weakly as Vash approached.
"Leaving again, eh boy?" Jake said with a soft chuckle. Vash couldn't smile. He couldn't even look up at the old man.
"Yeah.." Vash said walking past him.
( like that sexy way he answers when he serious? OH YESH, that 'Yeah' ^_~ )
He heard the old man laugh softly. Just before the man turned away back to his hotel he noticed something. He turned to Vash, "Hey boy! Where's Meryl?! Isn't she coming with you?!". Jake stared after Vash. He didn't answer. He blinked as the sun was catching his eyes and shaded them with his hand. Vash was already too far away. Maybe he didn't hear him..
Yeah.. He did hear him and he wished he didn't. He could have taken her if it didn't involve his past. He didn't want anyone to get infatuated with his past. Especially Meryl. The sun beamed down on him as if it was punishment. The wind caught up in the sand and rose up, hitting Vash. Vash slipped his hand into his pocket and pulled out his sunglasses, slipping them onto his face. He was full or regret and anguish. But it was for the best….
Right?….
As the bus traveled across the sand, Millie couldn't take her eyes off the town until it sunk into the sand. She still her hand on the window. When she turned around relaxing in her seat she breathed in catching her tears with her palm. She was full of regret. She felt like she was missing something. She knew what it was. Meryl. Vash and most importantly… Wolfwood.
She put a smile on her lips like she'd always do. If she was smiling people would smile back. If she was sad people would be sad too. It was just like her older sister would say. 'Always smile. If you do you'll get smiles back! If you lose that radiant smile then you'll get a mirror looking back at you'. At first it took her a while to get it. But the answer is how you feel. If your feeling one way, it can help the person beside you feel the same. And that's what she had to do. Even though the person she was sharing the seat with her was a little kid who kept moving around and laughing for no damn reason.
She found herself smiling.
'Now's your chance to tell Vash, Meryl' she thought not knowing about Meryl's relationship with Vash.
"Better keep your promise…Vash…" Millie said quietly.
