I haven't forgotten about this story I promise. Thanks for the reviews everyone. ON WITH THE STORY:
I watched Jiro pace for I don't know how long but I knew it was slowly wearing on my nerves.
"Jiro" stop pacing and talk to me already
"Mimiko, I don't think you understand my feelings right now." Jiro said calmly
"You were almost killed today Mimiko and… and I wasn't there to prevent it."
Jiro walked up to me and placed his hands on my shoulders
"Please Mimiko, don't go anywhere without me again I can't…"
"Can't what Jiro?"
"Live on without me… Can't bear to lose me? In case you have forgotten Jiro you told me the one you live for is Katarou so that you may return the sages blood to him. Don't tell me these things Jiro they only give me hope. You are always protecting me from danger but I noticed it's only when Katarou is also in the line of danger as well."
"Mimiko…"
"NO, I don't want to hear it Jiro"
I couldn't take being here with him anymore I put on my shoes and ran out the door. I continued to run until I reach the canal and sat on the bank staring out into the water.
"Excuse me" a voice said from behind me
I turned my head to find a little girl with snow white hair behind me. She walked up and sat next to me.
"What has you so upset?"
"Oh it's nothing I just had a fight with a friend"
The girl stared at me with her chocolate brown eyes. "My name is El, you"
"Oh, I am Mimiko, where are you parents El?"
"I don't have any; I haven't had parents for as long as I can remember."
"But you must stay with someone!" I was shocked this litter girl looked no older than seven and she already had to face such a hardship. My parents died when I was fifteen but by then the company practically took care of me.
El nodded her head "Yes, Lolita, Lana, and E; all take care of me"
"Well that's good, are they your sisters?"
El shook her head "No, only Lolita and Lana are sisters, but they are all like family too me"
I smiled at that "How old are you El"
El started to giggle "El, lost count"
"You lost count?" I was confused
El nodded her head "Well I have to go Mimi. Hopefully I'll see you again"
El jumped up and ran over to a woman in the distance. The woman patted her head and then took her hand and they both walked away but not before El turned and waved to me. I waved back with a smile, but that smile disappeared when El was no longer in sight.
Once El was gone there was nothing to distract me any longer. I pulled my knees up to my chest and began crying. "Jiro…" I whispered
"Jiro, he isn't someone to cry over"
My head shot up and in front of me was Nina
"Nina…"
"Hi" she said
"Come on Mimiko I have something that will cheer you up." She said while holding her hand out towards me.
I took her hand and stood up. "Where are we going?"
"You'll see"
Nina started pulling me in the direction she wanted to go. I didn't have to wait long before we stopped in front of an ice cream parlor. I smiled and continued to let Nina drag me inside. Once at the counter Nina started her order.
"Ok, I'll have chocolate chip cookie dough and my friend here will have cookies and cream"
"Wait, how did you know what my favorite ice cream was?"
Nina just smirked and took her ice cream cone while I took mine and we both walked over to sit at a table.
"Now are you going to tell me why were crying" Nina asked
I liked my ice cream and moaned a little in pleasure before I answered her. I don't know why but I knew I could tell her anything and she wouldn't lie to me or tell others my personal life.
"Jiro, was upset about what happened today. He told me I should take him with me wherever I go. Because he…."
"Because, he doesn't want to lose you or see you hurt" Nina said while leaning back in her chair while licking her own ice cream
"But you didn't like that because Jiro can't have a relationship with you because he is going to give his blood to Katarou when the time comes."
"How…"
"I have lived for a long time Mimiko. I knew Alice Eve when she was alive. I know the curse of her blood line. The blood line that transcends death, yes I know it all. Jiro was the only vampire she ever created and it will be the last."
I stared at Nina in awe.
"Mimi, I won't tell you to forgive Jiro and too go back and try to work things out with him. Jiro must come to you instead because ultimately this is all his decision if he wishes to pursue a relationship with you despite the fact that you both can't be together forever." Nina said
I took a bite out of my cone not realizing that I had almost finished my ice cream while we were talking. Nina had finished hers and was just waiting on me now.
"Mimi, I have a proposition for you." Nina said
"Go on"
"What if, I told you I know a certain vampire that needs some special assistance on his upcoming job. You could say."
"What kind of Job?"
"There is an underground crime ring going around the city, Sei told me about it while I was meeting him today. The company wants to deal with the matter the problem is that its full of vampires and the suppression team can't just waltz in because there are other humans involved as well. They need someone to take it down from the inside. So, I suggested that there is only one person with the capabilities to charm and woe is way in without being suspicious."
"Who?" I asked
"Well Zelman Clock of course!" she said with a smile
I started laughing because I knew she was right. Zelman is probably the only vampire who could get in without any problems. They would probably be happy to have him there for the extra power.
"what does that have to do with me though?" I asked
"You would be his favorite human who provides him with the blood he needs and is his spy in the company" Nina answered
I looked at Nina to see if she was just joking but she clearly wasn't. I thought this job over in my mind and thought maybe it would be a good idea to get away from Jiro for awhile.
"I'll do it!"
HEHE, Mimi and Zelman! On a job again honestly Mimi just can't escape Zelman. Will Zelman be happy about this arrangement? Will the company approve? Who knows… well I do but you don't so review and tell me what you think. Your author ~Alex~
