Heya! Sorry this one took longer to update and is shorter in words. I have been busy lately. I love the summer! -. Well, thank you for sticking to my story and thank you for the reviews. (I put the poem in the beginning and endfor enjoyment, I hope you like it!)

ENJOY!


Troubled Mind and Shinning Moon

There was door 204.

And there were someone's thirsty eyes

That wanted to know more,

Where dark figures loomed.

There was Chihiro outside the room.

And there was her best friend's face.

So was the teachers grip.

And in her friend's embrace.

There was Chihiro's confused stare.

And their forbidden glare.

And their words were soft and sweet.

As the distance between became smaller

And for the first time, they meet.

"I have learned more from you in just a few months than from years and years of other science classes. You are an excellent teacher."

Raicho's elbows rested in his large hands, and his fingers comfortably cradled them. His head and eyes hung low, and his hair was a shadow over them. His smile was sweet in a relieved matter.

"It makes me very happy to hear you say that Raicho-Chan. I what you to approve of me… More than anyone else."

Raicho locked eyes with his as her elbows smoothly slid out of his palms and placed her fingertips on his waist. He flinched in an unexpected way, as the sensation of her touch seemed too much to handle.

"You are an excellent person too. You have taught me about life, I understand you, and I think you understand me?"

His upturned palms, having nowhere to go, were placed loosely around her too.

"I understand you clearly. The more and more I understand you, the more I want you to approve of me."

She rested her head on his available chest and he rested his chin upon her head.

"I approve of your teaching, I approve of your personality and I approve of your whole being. I approve of you Kinzo Sonoda. I do." Raicho looked down quickly. And then continued in a lower tone,

"I approve of you so very much so that it hurts to be around you because you aren't allowed to approve of me."

He looked down with her stare and their foreheads leaned on one another.

"My mind and my body are not allowed to approve of you. But my heart does, and it hurts me too."

Raicho looked up, as Kinzo looked down. There was pain in both of their eyes as they clung to each other. A message of longing was pasted between them and they closed the distance thatseparated them even more. Their lips brushed together in a gentle touch as they breathed in the sensation. And as they felted the passion of contact, they went in for more.

Chihiro's gasped and quickly pressed up against the wall outside the class.

Did I just see that? My best friend and the teacher… kissing? How could they? What should I do? Should I stop them? Should I tell someone? What would Raicho want me to do?

Chihiro's head was spinning as the image of her teacher and her friend kissing, played over in her head. She needed to get out of the school… and fast.

Chihiro stumbled down the hallway. She needed to distance herself from people. People were disgusting. She was almost raped and her friend was making out with their science teacher.

How could you Raicho? You weren't worried about me; all you cared about was Sonoda. And he already calls you by your first name? When did that happen? For how long? I thought we told each other everything! I thought we were friends!

I don't want to talk to anyone. I hate everyone! I hate stupid Umeka! He's a pig! I hate Raicho and Sonoda! I hate my parents for working all the time and never helping with Seiki! I hate that my dad can't even come off of work when I'm sick! I hate it all…well, maybe not everyone. Who is that boy…what is he? He seems to care for me. But have I met him?

Chihiro was getting a headache and all she wanted to do was take a shower and sleep. Her whole body felt achy and violated. She could feel Umeka's sweaty hands all over her body as a chill coursed through her spine. She could feel his weight on top on hers and his hand…

NO! I hate him! I hate him so much! I wish he would die! Please help me spirit guardian! You have been there for me when no one else was! I feel so alone!

That afternoon Chihiro went in the shower as thoughts and images of Umeka pined on top of her terrified her body, and confusion of Sonoda and Raicho haunted her mind. She grabbed the scrub brush and violently tugged at her skin until it bled. She was trying to wash away the touches of unwanted hands and the knots on unwanted thoughts. But it didn't help. It only gave her sore skin.

She later pulled on pajamas and pink slippers and collapsed on her bed. More thoughts buzzed in her head as she wondered whether she should tell someone about Umeka. Or should she tell someone about Raicho and Sonoda? No one had ever dared to tell an adultabout Umeka. Was it out of fear? How many girls had he done that with? Then the phone rang and her thoughts crashed in her head like a traffic jam. She let the machine pick up.

"Hey Chihiro! Where are you? I thought we were going to wait for each other. Sorry I was a little late coming out. I thought we could get a bite to eat…maybe shop…you know, the regular thing. Oh well, I guess another day?

I just got home from detention with Sonoda. I feel kinda bad after it. I need to talk to you. I hope you are okay? I hope Umeka didn't do anything he shouldn't, or I will give him a piece of my mind! Haha! Well…Gimme a call okay. Bye!"

Click…silence.

Chihiro turned around and faced the wall. She didn't want to see or talk to anyone. She wanted to disappear. And as she wished… she faded into sleep.


There was steam all around her. It was clogging her senses as the thickness consumed her. There was something warm pouring on her back and something cold at her feet. She looked above her. There was a metal nozzle with water tickling through small spout holes. She was in the shower. But why…? Her feet were standing on the drain, as water spun in a race to empty. It was a black hole that she could stick her toe into, now she could stick her foot into. The hole stretched and stretched, pulling at the sides of the tub. The darkness inside was getting blacker and blacker as it pulled the girl into the void like a magnet. Her feet were being torn out from under her and she was drowning in agony. The hole swallowed her in one gulp as she fell down a cold and dark tunnel, never stopping until…

She felt her arms grip on to something solid and her legs firmly wrapped around a warm and rough exterior. The being pulsed under her as it vibrated with aliveness. It was falling like a diving plane. It's body jerked and twisted in the back of the girl as she sat perfectly situated on the beings' neck; like it was holding still just for. Plummeting in the thick darkness, she could feel the air pressing on her face as it rushed by her. She held onto the solid horns that protruded from its bright white skin. Its' skin was likethe texture and color of a full moon hanging in the blanketed, night sky. The soothing skin flowed like silk and like a river, it flowed through her. Something that she had felt before.

In a moments' time, they went crashing to the floor. Its' body was thrown in very direction, like a tangled slinky. It was in so much torment and pain. It had felt this pain before. The girls' heart raced in fear, as blood appeared everywhere she turned. It was smothering…so smothering.

She must help him…she must set him free again!


There's nothing so fine as a full moon on a dark night

Like a pearly white shell on the oceans' floor

And you know when you're in love when it's full and bright

And you're still hungry for more
