CHAPTER FOUR: Missed The Train.

Ichigo's POV:

Just keep running.... I thought. Get away from him....

Roll over baby,

The time has come,

"Ichigo!" Came that voice. "Ichigo, come back! Please!"

No, keep running....

Masaya had betrayed me. He cheated on me. It wasn't fair. I never even thought of cheating on him. Not even with Kish! Even though Kish is kind and sweet and short-tempered, I never thought of him THAT way.

"Stay away from me!" I shouted back to him.

To make a little bit more room....

I've hung around you.

I've never done anything to my Masaya. Ever. I've walked with him, talking about the world, talking about anything.

I won't cry though. He doesn't deserve my tears. I can't believe I've spent so many years thinking he was the one. So I won't cry. At least, not now. Not in front of him.

It's getting tough,

I think I'm gonna break down soon.

I needed to go somewhere he couldn't go. I couldn't go home. It was locked. My parents were supposed to go to a movie, so I went to the park to talk with Masaya. That's when it happened.....

I'd been crying earlier that day in the park because seconds before I got to the park, I got a phone call from the Dean of the school saying that I was going to fail high school if I didn't get my grades up. Great.

I was crying on a bench when Masaya saw me and sat down to talk to me.

'Cause I remember

Crying in the park

It was getting dark

Suddenly I look up

You were my sky

I was feeling better after he talked to me saying he'd help me with them when SHE walked up. That stupid girl with bright red hair and a preppy disposition like she was the queen of the world. I got up and ran away. And here I am, running.

So go on,

And sleep darlin'

Why don't you pretend we were just a dream?

Masaya and I weren't meant to be together. I decided that the second I saw the hag. He almost had me fooled too.

Just keep running. Go to the Café. Ryou and my other friends will make sure Masaya leaves me alone.

I seemed to forget that over the past year Masaya took track and cross-country. He caught up with me in no time.

"Ichigo," He said. "You don't understand, please let me explain."

"No." I said. I tried to walk away from him. He grabbed my hand and wouldn't let go.

It's cool baby,

It doesn't matter anyway.

Well I'm so sorry,

We got to the station a little late.

"Listen to me!" He shouted.

"No!" I shouted louder. I could feel claws coming out of my hand as I slapped him. Hard. His face started bleeding. I looked at my hand. It wasn't a hand anymore. It was a paw. My claws had retracted when I slapped Masaya.

That's right! I can out-run him as a cat!

Through the previous years of my life I had worked on the cat thing and could change into one at will. So I easily changed into one and ran away.

Such a shame,

We just missed the train,

We just missed the train.

Something hit me in the head. It was cold and wet. I stopped running and looked up. It was raining. Great. Even when I'm not a cat I hate rain.

Run faster, MUST RUN FASTER!

It was pouring even harder as I was a block away from the Café.

I was at the café door. I changed into a human again and ran inside.

Be quiet angel,

Don't make a sound,

Save it for a rainy day.

"Ichigo?" Everyone asked me when I got in. "This isn't your shift. What's wrong?"

No one else was in the café of course. It was past closing time. The Mew Mews, Ryou and Keiichiro stayed after to clean up. I ignored them for a second and ran to Ryou. I took the keys away from him (he happened to be swinging them from his finger) and locked the door. Then I sat down on a seat.

"It's wet outside." I said, smiling. "I hate wet."

"So you.... locked the door?" Minto asked.

"Yeah Ichigo. Something else is wrong." Ryou said.

"How would YOU know!?" I snapped. Ryou pointed to my head. I felt up there. Cat ears.

"Spill." Zakuro said. She put down her broom and pulled up a seat next to me.

I started crying. Finally, I could.

"Masaya's been cheating on me." I cried. A whole hush of gasps ran through the empty café.

"No way!" Rettasu said.

Can't you see me?

I'm such a mess

Trying hard to find my way.

"He did!?" Minto screeched. "That's not right."

"And now he's trying to tell me otherwise." I cried again. I would've thought I was hyperventilating or something. "But I'm through with him. I'll find someone else."

Do you remember wasting all the time?

We were feeling fine,

Though we couldn't walk a line

We were alright.

The telephone started ringing. Everyone looked at everyone else. Zakuro took her time walking over to the phone. She pressed the speaker phone on.

"Fdosih! Ggreuglh gdft gkvoetoj gkh?" She said into the phone. She was speaking in a totally different language.

"Is Ichigo there?" Came Masaya's cold voice.

"Hwofod Ichigo?" Zakuro questioned, grinning from ear to ear. Everyone was confused.

"What!?" Masaya shouted.

So go on

And sleep darlin'

Why don't you pretend we were just a dream?

It's cool baby,

It doesn't matter anyway.

Well I'm so sorry,

We got to the station just a little too late.

Such a shame,

We just missed the train.

"Jyat thou sdf kdjfef cDgs!" Zakuro said again. Now she had to cover her mouth and grip the table to keep from laughing.

"Sorry, I probably have the wrong number." Masaya's voice said. He hung up. Zakuro did the same and busted out laughing.

"What did you just do?" Purin asked.

"I clicked the phone on and said, 'Hi! How can I help you?' He answered. Then I said, 'Who's Ichigo?' He answered. Then finally I said, 'She's not here!' So he hung up." Zakuro told us. She was still laughing. Why was that so funny?

The phone rang again. I ran over to it and turned it on speaker. Ryou had followed me up to the phone. He put on a fake girls' voice.

"Hi!" He said in the funky girls' voice.

"Hello? Is Ichigo there?" Came Masaya's voice again.

"WHO WANTS TO KNOW!?" Purin screeched. From that Masaya knew that he had the right place.

"Ichigo?" He asked. I rolled my eyes.

"What do you want?" I asked dully.

"Look, I'm sorry. Please except that." He told me. I grinned.

"Let me think about that. No." I said. I hung the phone back up, then I pulled the chord phone and unhooked it so it would stay busy.

Oh why'd that train just pass us by?

Didn't anyone see we were stuck at the line?

And we would've made it on time.

Yeah

Yeah

Yeah!

I shunned Masaya after that. I was a lot happier and I passed High School because of it, so I guess it's a good thing.

So sleep darlin

Why don't you pretend we were just a dream

It's cool baby

It doesn't matter anyway

Well I'm so sorry

We got to the station a little too late

And sleep darlin

Why don't you pretend we were just a dream

It's cool baby

It doesn't matter anyway

Well I'm so sorry

We got to the station a little too late

Such a shame

We just missed the train.
