Recap:
"Where's Sato?" she asked, noticing he hadn't come in.
"He just had to stay back for a while" Yuki said, looking around. "I never knew we even had pots and pans. Guess it was buried under all this?" she nodded, as she said dinner was ready. They sat down at the table, as they began eating in silence. "I've only tasted your lunches, but I have to say Meg, you're a good cook" Yuki smiled.
"Th-Thanks" she said, blushing. He smiled as they continued to eat.
Chapter 13: Her Voice
Meghan woke the next morning and got changed; she'd missed school yesterday, although so did Yuki; there were bound to be problems revolving around the fan clubs again. She started down the stairs to make breakfast for them, along with lunch. As she was finishing, Yuki popped into the kitchen, smiling.
"…Thanks" he said, surprised she'd made lunch for him. As he started they joined Sato at the table and began eating, she explained how to heat up the food she'd made him for lunch. He nodded, understanding as they headed out the door.
"Should we tell Bridget?" she asked Yuki as they walked side by side down the hill.
"I don't think we should. Not just yet anyway" he sighed, running a hand through his hair.
Everyone store at them as thy approached the school, whispers fluttering around that perhaps Meghan had moved on. She sighed as she walked to her locker to change her sneakers, explaining to Yuki's fan club she had just met him on the way to school and walked with him. They stormed off, pissed at her, but she didn't mind as she walked towards him, waiting for her.
The day continued just the same, until gym that day, when Meghan disappeared suddenly.
"Bridget!" Yuki called, running after her. She turned around and faced him, smiling. "Have you seen Meg?" he asked.
She shook her head. "I'm afraid I haven't. Sorry Yuki" she said, the smile fading.
"It's okay. I'm sure she just had to do something" he said.
As the gym period went on, half way through, music sounded from the roof, causing everyone to look around, wondering where it was coming from. Suddenly, a voice was heard from the roof top, causing them all to look up.
Why don't I like girl I see? The one who's standing right in front of me. Why don't I think before I speak? I should have listened to that voice inside of me. I must be stupid must be crazy, must be outta my mind. To say the kinda things I said, last night. Mirror Mirror hanging on the wall. You don't have to tell me, who's the biggest fool of all. Mirror Mirror I wish you could lie to me, and bring my babe back, bring my babe back to me.
-Mirror Mirror, lie to me. Show me what I, want to see, to mehehe
Why did I let you walk away? When all I had to do was say I'm sorry? I let my pride get in the way. And you were the heel of the moment, I was to blame I must be stupid, must be crazy, must be outta my mind. Now in the coal light of the dead, I realize. Mirror Mirror hanging on the wall. You don't have to tell me, who's the biggest fool of all. Mirror Mirror I wish you could lie to me, and bring my babe back, bring my babe back, to me.
As they all watched her, she ordered Sai, Sakuya, Eriol, and Yuki to go get that girl down, but she stepped towards the edge of the roof, having stood up, and started shaking her hand. -If only wishes could be dreams, then all my dreams could come true. There would be two of us, standing her in front of you. If you could show me, that someone, that I used to be. Bring back my babe, my babe to meee.
They started in anyway, as she jumped off, knowing they were a good way into the building. As she approached the ground, the students saw she was a tanned girl with red hair; she was wearing the skirt uniform, her skirt having pants attached underneath.
Mirror Mirror hanging on the wall. You don't have to tell me, who's the biggest fool of all. Mirror Mirror I wish you could lie to me. And bring my babe back, bring my babe back. Mirror Mirror hanging on the wall. You don't have to tell me, who's the biggest fool of all. Mirror Mirror I wish you could lie to me, and bring my babe back, bring my babe back. To mee.
-to meheheh. Mirror mirror, lie to me, show me what I want to see. Mirror Mirror, lie, to mehe.
She smiled at them, as she landed on the ground, and started to run into the building. Eriol and Sakuya suddenly appeared on her tail, but they lost her as she crossed through rooms, jumped out windows, did everything, until she passed Yuki on her right and continued down the hall, bursting into Mr. Ayama's secluded office. He waited behind the corner for her to come back out, only to find Meghan emerge, peeking her head out before making her way down the stairs.
He followed her, curiousness seeping through him, until he found her go down the stairs towards the labs. He snuck a peek as she entered the check-up room, where she sat on the chair awaiting her. The plug lowered itself towards her neck, plugging itself in.
"I'm glad you decided on what you did Meghan" Shirogane's voice said from somewhere out of site. "I mean, it was a fair deal. Not blowing your double cover, in exchange for you" he smirked. Yuki's eyes widened at hearing she'd given herself up to Shirogane, for something he called a double cover.
Kirichi flicked a switch as Meghan's eyes went blank, filling itself with waves of chocolate brown and emerald green. "Now let us have your voiced" Shirogane whispered, as she opened her mouth and began singing. Finally, the flicked the switch again, releasing her. "I'm guessing you're only going to do this once a week he said. Meghan nodded her head, her hand to her throat; she'd lost her voice due to the experiment. "Don't worry. It'll be back by later today" Shirogane assured her.
She started towards the door, opening it wide to find Yuki sitting there. She stopped for a few moments, looking at him, before running up the stairs. Yuki followed her, until he'd grabbed her wrists and pinned her against a wall. They store at each other in silence for a few moments, until she broke it.
"Please, don't tell anyone"
"Tell everyone what? I don't even know what's happening" he said, pleading to know.
"I gave myself to Shirogane, my voice, in order to have a double life. My second life, is one where I can just do what I want, mostly sing, to try to get Sakuya back" she said softly, looking away.
His eyes widened, his fists clenching against the wall as he heard this. "Meghan? Why do you bother? He doesn't love you!" Yuki said frustrated.
"Why does it matter to you weightier he does or doesn't Yuki?" she shot back, glaring at him.
"Because I love you too!" he said, looking away. Her eyes widened, as she slowly shook her head. "I've been trying to not show it, to let you know for a while now. I can't stand seeing you like this; especially if you're going to sell yourself as an experiment just to try to get someone back who doesn't care for you Meg" he said, looking at her.
A silence hung about them as he slowly lowered his lips to hers, kissing her gently. She wanted to push him away, but she couldn't, not knowing why. He bent down again and stuck his tongue in her mouth, teasing her to join him.
Meghan tried all she could to resist the feelings erupting inside her, when she finally gave in and hung her arms around his neck joining him.
Yuki, feeling this and her tongue against his, decided to explore her mouth further as he started to kiss her more fiercely and passionately. Suddenly, they heard a pair of feet stop somewhere near them, a gasp emitting from them. They both parted, looking up at the person who had come in; it was Eriol and Sakuya. Meghan's eyes widened as Sakuya ran off, she tried running after him, but Yuki held her back. Eriol just looked down at the two, Meghan looking at the floor and Yuki glaring at Eriol. He followed after Sakuya, frustrated as well.
"Yuki, I can't" She said, her back towards him.
"All you need to do is make him jealous" He reassures her, breathing against her neck.
"I don't know. It'll be offal risky…" she said, looking at him, her eyes pleading.
He sighed. "Fine, I'll just help you then"
