Chapter 11: Jealously"Tohru is really nice. I see where Tarta and Tatra get their beauty." Hikaru thought, but then her thoughts transformed into more depressing ones when she remembered a beautiful woman with golden yellow eyes and turquoise hair.
Hikaru sighed, berating herself. "Why must I have been so naïve before? I ruined it, I missed my chance… and he couldn't wait anymore for me…."
-Flashback-
"Hikaru--in your country, what do u say to confess your love?"
---------------------
It's just I love both of you… you and eagle. As well as Umi, Fuu, Clef, Presea, Ferio, Ascot, Gardina, Lafarga… I Love ALL of you! I want to be with you ALL forever!
-End-
Hikaru absently rubbed her cheek where Lantis had before when he was going to confess his love for her.
"Oh goodness… I have been such a fool. Well, I still am." Hikaru thought, tears threatening to fall.
Just then she saw Lantis and the women with turquoise hair. She wasn't close enough to hear what they were saying, but she didn't care. It hurt enough just to see them two together.
Unfortunately for Hikaru though, she was so focused on just seeing them together that she completely missed on how Lantis was staring at her indifferently.
Primera noticed Hikaru watching them from the distance and smirked. "I need to make sure she knows that Lantis is mine! He loves me, but that wench is making him believe that he loves her!"
Primera lunged at Lantis, roughly smashing her lips to his. Lantis was caught off guard and fell backwards which resulted with the two on the laying on the floor, Primera on top of him, kissing him passionately.
Hikaru ran. "I will not cry. I will not cry. I will not cry."
But her heart disobeyed her mind's commands and tears fell from her eyes.
And they wouldn't stop.
Luck just wasn't on Hikaru's side today. If she had stayed, she would had seem how Lantis harshly pushed Primera off of him, and the cruel words he said to Primera and how he stormed away.
But then, who could blame her for running away?
-------------------------------
"I'm sorry sis… I'm sorry…" Tarta sobbed to no one.
"But it just isn't fair… it never was…" she thought to herself.
Tarta sensed that she wasn't alone and looked up to see her sister and mother.
Tarta looked back down, guilt running free throughout her body. She couldn't stand to look at her mother's eyes, nor her sister's.
"My daughter… how could you do such a thing?" Tohru asked, gently but firmly.
Tarta burst into tears. Her emotions raw and overwhelming her.
Tatra couldn't bear seeing her sister cry and went over to comfort her.
Tarta fell into Tatra's arms, needing the console, wherever it came from.
"Whenever you are ready." Tohru said patiently, who was looking admirably at her two beautiful daughters hugging.
Tarta didn't want to admit it, but she knew she had to. She couldn't keep these emotions locked inside forever. It has already caused enough harm.
Tarta took a deep breath, while gently pushing off Tatra's hug.
"… I'm sorry. I went crazy… from jealously. Eagle… I also love him too." Tarta finally admitted.
Tatra's eyes went wide, she didn't realize that. She was so busy being happy with Eagle she was totally clueless to Tarta's feelings towards Eagle and suddenly felt like she let her sister down.
"But… I have always been jealous. It has never been fair," Tarta quietly complained, "Tatra has always been the better one. Always smarter, stronger…., always been the better ruler. And when Eagle favored her, not me, it drew me over the edge. Once again, like always, she is the better person."
Tatra eyes started to water. She was about to say something but Tarta interrupt.
"No, don't say anything. I know, I know. You have always been the better person. Even when I almost killed you, you have already forgiven me. I see it in your eyes."
Tarta felt even guiltier, and once again tears fell.
Mother and daughters were crying all together now.
"Tarta, you are perfect the way you are. Never forget that." Tohru warmly reassured Tarta, hugging both of her precious daughters to her.
"Never."
-----------------------------------------
Umi, Hikaru and Fuu all sat together, just chatting. Hikaru pushing her depressing thoughts aside.
"I wonder when Gardina and Lafarga are going to get back from their honeymoon?" Umi pondered out loud.
"They are going to be gone for a while. That is all Gardina told me." Hikaru replied.
Fuu smiled at that.
Just then, the three girls noticed Lantis walking closer. Pain and nervousness flashed onto Hikaru face.
"Ahh.. I got to go." Hikaru quickly spat out before running away.
They saw Lantis sigh and then run after her.
"Just what is going on?" Umi asked.
"I have no idea… but I have a feeling that Primera has something to do with all of this." Fuu replied, eyes slightly glaring.
"Same here. She is obviously jealous, and she also lied about that family thing. Where that is damn fairy?" Umi said, her anger building.
"We need to let Hikaru handle this on her own though…" Fuu sighed, closing her eyes with impatience.
Umi glanced at Fuu. "Yea, you are right." Umi agreed, though her anger still lingering.
"Like always." Fuu giggled.
Umi rolled her eyes, but a smile was on her face. "WHATEVER!"
"Hm…so, are you still not talking to Ascot?" Fuu asked.
The smile disappeared from Umi's face.
"I see." Fuu replied.
Umi decided that it was finally time to let her friends know her true feelings.
"It is just so hard. I don't want to hurt Ascot." Umi tried to explained.
"Wait, do you mean that you KNOW that Ascot loves you?" Fuu asked astonished.
"Yeah… I feel so guilty though. I pretend that I didn't know, but I think that it hurt him more." Umi replied.
Fuu was in shock. "Omg…"
Umi smiled. "Finally, something you didn't know."
Fuu giggled, while lightly punching Umi.
"Why did you pretend though?" Fuu wondered.
Umi sighed. "Remember last year, when we first arrived in Cephiro without a pillar?"
Fuu gave a look to Umi saying "How could I not?"
"Well, the first night we were there. I got up in the night to go apologize to Clef, but he then told that he should be the one who was apologizing and stuff like that. He said that he was glad we came back so that he could thank us, and then he held my hand in his. That was when I fell in love with Clef."
"Umi…" Fuu replied worriedly, her brow knotted in concern.
"Yeah. But then I realized that Clef was in love with Presea. He doesn't admit it, but I see it when he looks at her."
Umi took a deep breath before continuing.
"But the thing is…… I'm still in love with Clef. I didn't want to hurt Ascot, so I pretended not to realize what he felt, and said things like best friends to hopefully make he stop liking me more than a friend. I thought he would then stop liking me but I just didn't realize that it just hurt him more. Now look what I have done. I caused him so much pain." Umi sobbed.
Fuu hugged Umi. "Umi, I think you the telling the wrong person this."
Umi hugged Fuu back, sighing. "I'm not ready yet, but I will. I promise."
Umi felt like part of the weight on her chest has been lifted off. "You have always been here for me. I don't know what I would do without you Fuu."
"Ditto." Fuu smiled.
"Just remember, Umi. Listen to your heart."
-----------------------------------------
"I am getting tired of this." Lantis sighed, irritated.
"Why is she always running away from me? Primera isn't helping the situation either." Lantis growled.
"Next time Hikaru runs away, she isn't getting away."
A/N: Yea I know, short. but leave a reveiw anyways? But an update is an update…. Right?
