Chapter Two
My heart leaped when he said that last sentence, 'I'm chaos.' That voice, it left sort of a ringing sound in my heart. I shook my head to clear of the feeling. He looked at me, confused.
"Is there something the matter?" he asked, his calm voice stirring my soul even more. My heart was beating fast; I never remembered feeling this way before. I liked it a bit.
"I-it's nothing. Just a bit shocked," I replied smiling.
He seemed to wait a moment before he replied. "Did I scare you?"
I shook my head, signaling no. "No, you didn't. I just never knew Ta knew people like you. You're so different from how she's like. Oh, come in!"
I moved to the side as he walked into our, now clean, apartment room. He sat down on the couch. "You wouldn't believe how we met," chaos replied.
"I'm all ears," Sumina replied. "Would you like anything to drink?"
chaos shook his head. "No, thank you."
I sat down across from him on a comfy chair. We sat quietly until chaos started talking again. "We met at the park. I was a big mess and I'm in one too. These… people, they're after me."
"I understand," I replied, my heart not beating as fast as it did before. "Don't worry, Ta told me everything."
His face showed obvious shock. "Everything?"
"No, no," I replied, shaking my hands in protest. "Don't take it the wrong way. Everyone has their own secrets, I understand. But I know you'll be able protect yourself if you get into any trouble with me."
"And what about you…?" he asked. Oh, his voice is so cool. I love his calm voice. Wait… I shouldn't be thinking like this. He's just a guy, who's in deep trouble. And I'm just here to help, nothing more. He's only staying for two days.
"I'll be able to protect myself too," I replied instantly. "You don't have to worry about me."
"Are you sure? Even against things larger than boulders?" His worry for me made me worry also. Maybe, his trouble just wasn't with some bully or company. Maybe… it was more, but either way, I can always count on my magic.
"I can. Trust me," I said, smiling again. I love to smile, but it seemed that he was in a trance for a moment. I was amazed, his face showed little emotion unless he's not careful like he was before. We both went off, lost in our own thoughts, although I could hear his. Once I realized I was eavesdropping I cast myself off of his thought and went off on my own.
Soon, I heard his stomach growl. I knew he was blushing. "I'll go make something to eat," I said getting up. I heard him say a quiet 'thank you.'
End of Chapter 2
Author's Note: Well, nothing interesting has happened yet. Just wait, the next chapter has a little more action... which appeals to me more and some others too. Just wait, Albedo will come and there'll be action EVERYWHERE.
