FLCL: The Story Continues

Part 6 "And I Love Her"

A Couple of days after Haruko left, Naota was alone at home. His father had been gone all week, something about a convention. Naota wondered amongst the rubble in his home; no one was killed during Haruko's rampage, but the house was a mess. The fact was Naota didn't care all he cared about was Haruko; he walked downstairs and found Haruko's blue bass on the floor. Looking down it was like before, all he had of Haruko was her guitar and a broken heart. He was too miserable to do anything about the mess and couldn't get Haruko off his mind. All he could do now was play the bass. It didn't seem like much at first, but it comforted him. Soon he started to play a familiar song and started to sing "Yesterday" by the Beatles. Yesterday – McCartney and Lennon

Yesterday all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh I believe in yesterday.

Suddenly, I'm not half the man I used to be. There's a shadow hanging over me. Oh yesterday came suddenly

Why she had to go I don't know; she wouldn't say. I said something wrong Now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday Love was such an easy game to play. Now I need a place to hide away. Oh I believe in yesterday.

Why she had to go I don't know; she wouldn't say. I said something wrong now I long for yesterday.

Yesterday love was such an easy game to play. Now I need a place to hide away. Oh I believe in yesterday.

A tear rolled down Naota's cheek with the last chord. A voice came from the dark doorway and said openly "Yesterday; written by Paul McCartney and John Lennon; originally released in 1965 by the Beatles. It's a good song but I prefer their song She Loves Ya". The voice came out of the shadows and it was none other then Haruko, she sat beside Naota on his bed. "I'm sorry for leaving like that, I just wanted to make sure you really love me." Naota threw himself on to her and sobbed; through his tears he asked her "you won't leave me, will you?" Haruko didn't answer instead she hugged him and remained silent.

Look out for Part 7: "Star Crossed Lovers"

Hey there, Lupin here! Man, I have been working over time for all my fans. Don't think you don't deserve it; you love of my story encouraged me to stay up past midnight for two nights in a row; on school nights no less. Oh well I have a study hall to sleep in if worse comes of it. Thanks again for your support and keep on writing your "Shiny" comments and spread the word. Till next time Lupin.
