SweetGlade: Oops... Well... Sorry? April 25th, 1712. Spoilers: Diary, again.

Chapter 24: Thoughts of Kimiko.

Kimiko's Diary.

Raimundo told me I was meant to be a Princess! I'm not that charming. Although I would be able to marry him if I was. Oh.
I don't know how to express that fluttering feeling I always get in my heart when I see him. It's an instant reaction, and I've never felt it before. Could it be love? I don't know. No one has ever... Never mind. Someone has, but I never liked them... I'm not writing about that though. There's Raimundo, and he's the only thing I care about know.
I don't know how I survived without him, and how I utterly despised him. Now he's like air. I need him, and if he goes I'm afraid I'll wither away and die.
This is my mental diary. While Raimundo doses off next to me, I sit here; on the balcony, thinking of what is going to happen, and what already did. So many things... I can't name them all! But I remember my first kiss with him.
But unfortunately, that wasn't my first kiss ever.
I think that was Raimundo's though. He never even talks or looks at Sophia. She's such a faggot. I didn't mention this, but when I first met her I felt like I was in competition with her or something.
Now I am, but of course Raimundo would choose me over her, definitely.
Sometimes I do think about what Raimundo would say, or act like if he had competition. That person that I used to know, they won't come over here, and he won't have anything to worry about. I don't think he'd worry anyways, even if he knew.
He's that care free type of person, and I wonder what goes on inside his head. Does he ever think of me? I think of him all the time. If he does, what does he think about? How pretty I am?
The thought makes me blush. And I haven't done that in so long.
He blushes when he sees me too.
I know so. It's so cute. He has a serious side, and he used to be like that. Arrogant, and ignorant.
Then I softened him from the inside, and I did something no other person did.
I touched his heart, and he did mine. It's a warm feeling you only get when you're in love.
It makes me weak in the knees just thinking about it.
What else has he done? Well... I don't know. I just want to do something right now. How about describing? He's so good looking. Raimundo isn't the type of Prince that looks down on people... Anymore. I changed him.
And he's as reckless as usual, but when it comes to me; he's careful and cautious. As if I were a fragile piece of glass that could break any second. I don't want to be separated from him. That's my weakness now. Dark forces can not find that out.
--------------------------------------------

Is there anything I don't like about him? Maybe. There's some things that I can't solve in this little amount of time. I want him to see the beauty, I want him to be happy, and live with me! But I guess that won't happen for a while. He's too speedy now.
I can imagine him now. "I'm not like that," He's so nice...

The one thing that made my heart skip was that he took off his crown. It's a surprise to me that no one knows who he is if he doesn't wear royal clothes, or his crown. Raimundo's simple red shirt, medallion, and silk pants are just fine. There's some minor issues between us, but it's going to be alright, and it always will be.We will have our terrible days.
But I am not leaving him. Unless he does. I promise to myself, and I don't think he'll go either. He loves me, and he's there for me. Nothing will come for us; evil will not tear us apart like it used to do.
Ugh... I'm tired of talking about him. There's some more important stuff to write about. Since this is in my mind, Raimundo will never know, and no one will.
So... I've been with someone before. I'm going to tell you part of the name. Let's see... I forgot the person's name! It was something like... How come I can't remember?
Fine, I'll tell you how different he is from Raimundo. He was abrasive, and rude. Let's call him...
Bob for now. So Bob always jerked me around, and when I didn't do what he wanted me to do, he forced me to do whatever is was that he wanted me to do. Then I broke away and hid. He went with some other girl, and he didn't ask where I was. That girl was prettier than me.
No one looked for me; it was the beginning of my life in Xiaolin.
I think he moved or something. His clothes... I don't know what he did, or anything. My mind refuses to tell me anything about him. If he ever comes along, Raimundo will be there to hold me. Protect me.
I'll never see that prat ever again.
Living happily ever after with Raimundo will be just fine. Raimundo will not hear of this. But if he did, what would happen? He's not going to break up with me, or have a fit.
He's more mature. The problem will fade away by itself. Bob will never be forgiven, if that's his name, which it isn't. I'll know...

Oh, Raimundo just said something.
It's: "Kimiko, where is that potion, you said you weren't going to cut yourself..."

He cares. That's just so pleasant! Another thing I wanted to talk about. The future. I wonder what's going to happen. In Xiaolin, nothing happens. The big thing going on is the Princess and Prince getting married, which is going to get canceled because Raimundo is not marrying that bitch! Now... I don't know what's going to happen.
Something bad will always happen, but I shall over come it. But how many things can I dodge and not get worn out? Many, I hope.
-----------------------------------------------------------

What is happening to the Temple when I'm gone? Is Master Fung still there, and taking care? Keiko should be there, waiting for me still. I should have told her that I ran away with the Prince. She would have been so jealous!
How about all my patients? And my potions? And my room?
I bet there's still some truth potion left... Oh, did Raimundo ever get it away?

While I was gone... I don't think I was done reading my book. Guess what genre? Romance. I love those. They're so fluffy! In the end it always touches my heart. Raimundo doesn't know that, does he? I'm going to comment now. Whenever something ends so abruptly, my heart gets heavy. There was a girl, and she jumped into her lover's arms, and then it ended. But it was so... She even screamed 'I LOVE YOU!' I wish that would happen. Except... They were younger than me. Still learning things.
Love at first sight is the best love though. I don't think that happened to me, but I had tough love.
Nothing really happened.
I need to go soon, Raimundo's beginning to stir. It's so cute how he snores. How he mumbles in his slumber.

That's how I feel right now. Emotions are floating everywhere, and fate is around the corner. I don't know what will take place; but it's going to be perfect for Raimundo and I.
This will be in my head. When Raimundo needs to know, he will. But not know. We have just recovered from not seeing each other. He won't be surprised. I told him there was someone in the past, but does he remember?
If I can't, then he can't. It's the way everything is now.
I feel tired now. I could have been sleeping next to him, if I wasn't busy writing down things in my head. Oh well, life is good; and there's plenty of it left. So I better life every day like it's my last one. No other day will ever be April 25th, 1712 ever again. I think I'm the only one who thinks like that, but it's true. And people are taking this for granted.

Raimundo's snoring has lessened. Is he going to awaken? I might as well lay down too. Staring out into the valley of trees and standing up isn't that comfortable. I'll just lay down for a second.
Fine, I admit that I scooted toward Raimundo, while he wrapped his arms around me and held me close. I feel my eye lids drooping already. I might found out what the name of that person was while I sleep. Was it Bob? Ugh... Can't remember. Something light was pressed onto my forehead. His lips... Raimundo's warmth again spread through my body, and I felt peace. We didn't have to go. We could stay here forever, together forever.
Love forever. I just hope that's true. Now the first entry of my mental diary has ended. Raimundo...
