Chapter 3: How To Get Your Way
------------------------------------------
"ABSOLUTELY NOT!" Sasha screamed at the top of her lungs.
Misha winced and immediately regretted asking that question.
"No! No! No!" Sasha continued. "You JUST took a vacation! You can't just take a second one when you please! The PTB would never have it!"
"B-but, Sashy-chan! Just one daysie-waysie! Just one! Su!"
"Why part of 'NO' don't you seem to get!"
"Pleeease! Su! I'd do Anythin'… ANYTHIN' to just see hims againy-wen…" Misha's frown was so far down that it almost went down her chin, along with her tears. Her lower lip trembled, and she found herself gripping at the bottom of her dress. "please…su…."
Sasha sighed and placed her hands on her hips, giving Misha an evil glare. "Listen, babe, I have news for you."
"y-yes, su…?"
"YOU had already used your powers so he could NEVER see angels again! That means, you, the angel, cannot be seen by him! Do you understand yet!"
"B-but Sashy-chan… theres GOT to be a waysie! Su! Theres just gotta be!"
"What do you propose, Misha? That you can just un-do the whole thing for one day?"
Misha sniffled and loosened her tight grip. "is… that possy-wossible….?"
Sasha frowned. "No Misha… you can't just undo something like that…"
"…su….." Misha sulked as if her heart had just sunk into her stomach. I guess… I did what I did…I just… wishies I could undo it… su…, Her eyes began to blur and sting. I don't want to wishies anymore…
Sasha let out a frustrating sigh of relief. She turned her heel and marched down the cloudy hall with anger in each step. A large vein popped out of her forehead and began to pulse rapidly. The nerve she has! Trying to get herself another vacation! That girlie is asking WAY to much from--
Sasha felt two warm arms wrap around her abdomen and she instantly stopped in her place. "..."
"Sashy-chan…" Misha said with gentleness in her voice. "I want to be human… for just one day…"
Sasha's heartbeat began to increase in speed. She felt herself wanting to scream at such a suggestion, but as Misha hugged her tighter, she couldn't find the strength of heart.
"Please Sashy-chan… I've done so good so far… I know I've been a goody-good angel, su… I knows it… and I only am because of you…" She rested her head on Sasha's back and let the stinging tears release from her sockets. "I knows I ask a lotty-wots… I know I whinies too muchers… b-but… I'm begging you with all the love in my hearty-wart… please, Sasha-chan… make me human… and let me hold the one I loves so muchies…"
Sasha bit her lip. She stood up straight and kept her position, hoping Misha couldn't feel herself grow weak. She didn't WANT to do it. Not at all. She didn't WANT to grant Misha her wish and let her go so low to even be human. She didn't WANT to say 'Yes' and she didn't want to give in… But it just slipped out.
"Alright… alright, Misha…" She sighed, feeling anger for herself at the moment. "I'll let you be a human, but only if--"
"REALLY-WEALLY, SU!" Misha shouted into her ear, causing Sasha to tense up and twitch a bit. "DO YOU TRULY-OOLY MEANS IT!"
"UGH! Yes, Misha! Don't Push it!" Sasha jerked herself out of the hug and crossed her arms in annoyance. "But there is a condition…"
"I Don't care Sashy-chan, I'll do it! I'll do anythingy-wingy for Kotarou-kun! Suuuuuu!"
"ughhh, calm down!" Sasha yelled as Misha clutched onto her legs. "Now stop that, before I change my mind!"
Misha loosened her grip enough for Sasha to shake her off. "Okey-dokey-smokey! Tee hee hee!"
Sasha groaned. I SOOOO should of NOT gave into her…
"But, su… what's da condition?"
"oh!" Sasha remembered. "The condition is…"

In Café Tricot, the three sat at a small booth, with three small drinks. Koboshi and Ten, sitting together across from Kotarou, had already finished them. But Kotarou himself had not even touched his drink.
Kotarou was always pondering. He always lost grip of reality and slipped into his thoughts. It seemed to happen a lot… but not as much as this.
Stirring his soda with his straw, memories started to come back to him. He remember in this very place where him, Misha, Shia, and the others were trying to figure out that order Dai had put in for them. He remember how helpless Shia looked when the clouds of smoke filled the room, and he remembered how kind she was to everyone.
But then… other, more darker memories, started to find their way into his mind. When Shia seemed to turn pure evil and struck at him with a kiss. He felt so weak, as if he was dying. He didn't understand how Shia, who was so sweet and innocent, could put him through so much pain.
"…….."
Koboshi and Ten gave worried glances at each other.
"um… Kotarou-kun…?" Koboshi questioned, smiling sheepishly. "Why so out of it today, huh?"
"oh…" Kotarou looked up at her, a little shocked from this pull into reality. "uh… I don't know…"
Koboshi frowned. "Are you feeling ok…?"
Kotarou grinned and nodded, nervously jugging down his drink. "ahh!" he breathed out. "of course Koboshi-chan! Good as new!"
Koboshi let out a shaky chuckle and nudged Ten in the arm.
"oh!" Ten gasped, getting the hint. "Are you sure man? Cuz we can walk you home if you seriously think you're not feeling too great…"
Kotarou looked down, the smile gone completely from his face. "…Heh… Ten-chan… thanks… but you don't have to walk me home… I'm sorry but… I think I just need to be alone for awhile…"
Ten nodded, signaling Kotarou that he could go.
And with that, Kotarou packed up his bag and headed out. His bangs shadowed over his eyes and it hid the tears forming in them. The bell rang as he opened the door, and he walked out, letting out a small sniff.
"I wonder what's up with him…" Ten sighed, supporting his head with his arms. "He's been so odd the past week… maybe this whole thing with Misha and Shia is really getting' to him, you think?"
"oh…um… yeah…" Koboshi mumbled out of her thoughts. Poor Kotarou-kun… I hope he's alright…
Ten frowned at Koboshi, suddenly feeling a pain in his heart. Do you think she'd fall for Kotarou again…? He asked himself. And after a moment's pause, he shook those thoughts out of his head. Nah, man… she couldn't do that…
---
Kotarou, In his pjs, heard a loud crash and came out of the bathroom with a toothbrush hanging out of his mouth. "whas 'at?" he mumbled out from the foam.
Hard rain and winds pounded at the building and butchered against it's exterior. A Flash of lightning filled the room, and loud crashes of thunder rang in Kotarou's ears. It was obviously a pretty hard-core storm and he couldn't help but wonder if Koboshi and Ten had already gotten home safely.
Aw man… I should of walked home with them, He thought feeling a pinch guilty. What if… What if something bad happened to them! Would it be my fault!
He wanted the courage to run out that door and make sure that they arrived home in good condition. He'd do it still in his pj's and barefoot if he could (with his toothbrush still hanging out his mouth of course :O) But when he really thought about it… He'd just get himself into trouble.
Ugh… maybe I worry too much…, he shrugged, heading back to the sink. I always think the worst is going to happen…maybe that's what's wrong with me… maybe I need to stop over-reacting about these sort of things…

END CHAPTER 3
------------------------------------------
wow, I'm happy I finished that chapter. It was actually pretty boring, but it just gets you ready for the next one. D
In chapter 4, you get to see what happened to Koboshi and Ten in the storm (oh lala), which will be rather difficult to write. (xx); I've been using the same phrases over and over again… ;; I need a thesaurus.
So anyway, thanks SO MUCH for reading all this through (if you have (xx) ) It means allot to me. ;
I can't wait to have Misha and Kotarou kiss… :looks through book 8: every time I see it in the manga, It always gives me little chills… ;;
