Chapter 3

Authors Note: Blitzkrieg02: thanks for reviewing baby

Caramel: o Your two cents is more like 5. You understood my concept very well; Of course things aren't going to be NORMAL when they go out. The guys going to be a little scared on certain ways she acts but we'll see where it goes from there?

"So" He laughed nervously "I'm not really familiar with this place do you…?" Akugi said softly.

"You're worried" Saki said looking towards him, "Your waves"

He flinched slightly, "Well yea! I don't know this place!" He said defensivly, he was obviously lying.

"No…you're scared of me"

"I- I am"

Saki looked towards him for a few seconds her eyes unmoving showing little emotion, the most movement you would see was her mouth would tighten just a bit. Megumi followed looking towards him his cold eyes glaring towards the back of his head. He had shocked Saki, he could tell. How? Only brother's instincts could be the answer, because by the look on her face no one else could tell with the human eye or so it would seem.

"Then why did you insist to apologize? If you can't even stand to be around me?" Saki looked to the side slightly, as he stared towards her looking down.

"Because…I was just as wrong as you are."

Saki's eyes snapped up, darting towards him and his sandy brown bangs covering his eyes. 'How dare he try and he put me in a spot of being wronged…? I...I've already know that.'

"I just thought that if you face your fears that maybe…we could repent together?"

"Mom always said to face your fears!" Tohru's cheerful voice rang through her ears, her mind, echoing repeatedly through her mind as she stared towards him almost in shock, her face softening almost drastically.

"Kyoko...san…" The name drifted through the wind quietly. Megumi flinched looking from behind the tree his hand gently resting against the bark, slowly moving behind it casting his head downwards as his hand slowly began to slide down.

"Who?"

"No one Akugi…" Her voice was calm as she looked towards him, 'Why do I feel like I'm slowly breaking as if Kyoko-san is here, watching me closely but I know…that Kyoko-san…she….she died.

"Saki…I'm sorry…of being afraid…of being how I am…I…I know I'm I was wrong. I'm wrong to be scared but I just I'm scared to die. But I know I have to be be brave because I pushed that upon myself from forcing you too…."

Saki looked towards him "You really do seem like her…Tohru-kun that is…Trying…Trying so desperately hard…to be optimistic."

He looked towards her a bit cluelessly for a few seconds and then smiling. "I don't suppose that's a bad thing now is it? You should be a little more optimistic"

"…." Saki stared towards him "And what makes you think I'm not…"

"Maybe because your still wearing black after all this time…It's strange I noticed then….I was really scared of being around you even seeing you….But every time I saw you before I ran…you were always wearing black and I began to wonder why… and then I realized maybe that it was my fault."

"I feel most comfortable in this color now, I've grown too it" Saki said looking to the side. "That was my way of repenting…"

Megumi closed his eyes, listening it sounded as if his sister was breaking. Her voice was steady as normal, nothing changed. But he could tell. Megumi could always tell, as far as Megumi could tell she didn't take notice of him and maybe that's how he knew. He knew because she didn't.

"Saki…" He whispered rising to a stand, "There's no more need to repent any longer, I'll…I'll kill him" Megumi whispered slowly disappearing. The little boy's demeanor was completely gone now. It was because he loved his sister, it's because he cared for her. He wouldn't stop.

Akugi stood looking towards Saki, "Would you…like to…talk somewhere?" He asked timidly, Saki's eyes meeting his. "My house…would be fine"

"But your parents?"

"My parent's don't hold grudges"

"They have the right too"

"Yea…but that would mean they'd hold one against ME as well"

There was silence now.

It began to rain.
