At the Taisho resisdence...
Aerith was in her room finished with her homework.She was bored.Her room was the same way it was since she was a baby except with a white window seat,a balcony,a queen side bed with blue covers and white sheets,and posters of rappers and Aaliyah,Chingy,Bowow,TreySongz,and Chris Brown.Aerith was a Hip-Hop,Soul,and Rap kinda person while Kasumi was into punk rock music.Aerith liked some of it though.Aerith was in her room listening to Justin TimberLake singing "My Love"featuring T.i.but Aerith always had a secret...she had a boyfriend named Bankotsu...he was a gangsta.even though he was rough in public he was soft and kind to her.she never told anyone because she kept her private life to herself do to the fact her and her family always has the Press always asking questions.She had turned the radio up a little higher...The she heard a loud tap come from her window.a shocked expression came across her face.She ran to her window and opened it.She saw a guy with long black hair that was put into a braid with a red star mark on his forehead.
"Bankotsu..."
She said as he jumped to her balcony and ran to her holding her tight.
"Aerith I've missed you."
He said as her water lily and jasmine scent flooded his nose.
"I've missed you too bankotsu...why have you kept me waiting?"
She asked.
"Because I wanted the moment to be right."
He said kissing her lips softly.for a second she imaged him slapping her.she had let go of him.
"What's wrong?"
Bankotsu asked.
"Nothing...I just really missed you and its awkward kissing you."
She said.
"Your with some...else aren't you?"
He said disappointed.
"No...I'm not I could never."
She said.
"There's something strange happening to you."
He said walking up to her as his touch scared her for some reason.He pulled his hand away.
"Are you afraid of me...are you scared from last time..."
The last time he touched her he smaked her real hard.
"Bankotsu...what have you been doing while I waited?"
She asked sitting on her bed as a cool breeze blew her hair and silky night gown that dragged on the floor.
"I've tried to get better to never did what I did last time."
He looking at his hand in shame.
"Bankotsu...I just need sometime to adjust what I'm feeling at this moment."
She said as he left through the balcony and she had locked it and turned her back towards it and slid down to the ground.her bangs covered her eyes as silent tears fell.she was scared to see him again she had thought she'd be happy.
"Why is everything going wrong?"
She said hugging her knee's falling asleep.
The next day...
It was saturday and Aerith hadn't eaten.Inuyasha looked at her daughter her green eyes showed sadness and hurt.he had put his fork down.Kasumi and Kagome looked at the two.
"Aerith what's wrong?"
Inuyasha asked as Aerith had her head down.
"Aerith...do you hear me answer the question!"
Inuyasha said getting annoyed because he was worried.
"I don't know..."
She whispered.
"Aerith did something happen?"
Kagome said walking to her daughter holding her.
"I'm afraid."
Aerith said breaking down to tears.
"Afraid of what?"
Kagome said softly.
"Bankotsu..."
She said.
"Inuyasha blood boiled.
"Who is he and what did he do to you!"
He said ready to slice this Bankotsu guy to shreds.
"He had slpaaed me a week ago...we were dating and I got him angry because I had embarrasses him infront of his friends...and I feel hurt."
She said breaking to a fit of tears.Kagome had tried to soothe her daughter.
At night...
Aerith had went to the playground and swung on the swings looking at the moon.the someone sat on the swings next to her.she turned around and saw...
"Ryou..."
She said shocked.
"So you come here when your afraid too."
He said as she smiled and nodded.
"So what are you afraid of?"
He asked her.
"My boyfriend had slapped me once because I embarassed him infront of his friends."
She said.
"He should be killed for hitting a woman...such as you."
He said.Aerith looked up at him shocked he said that.
"Thanks...so what are you afraid of?"
She asked.
"Getting hurt."
He said.
"From what?"
She said as her curosity got the best of her.
"from someone I grown to like...I never knew she could get easily hurt I thought she was tough and strong but I want to be those things for her."
He said.She looked at him kinda jealous of this girl he spoke of.
"Who is she do I know her."
She said smiling for the first time today.
"Yup...you know her inside as well as out."
He said.Aerith frowned.
"Kasumi already has a boyfriend."
She said.
"Nope not her."
He said teasingly.
"Is it Ran,Aya,or Miyu?"
She guessed.
No,no,and no."
He said.
"Tell me I'm anxious to hear who it is."
She said.
"Its someone who stood up for me at my first day at school."
He said looking at her as a smile spread across her lips.
"So its me."
She said as her hair blew with the breeze and the moon shined on it also her hazel eyes they showed compassion.he blushed at how she looked at that moment.
"Bingo."
He said as she giggled.She hugged him she needed him at this moment.He hugged her back.
"Thanks for easing my pain."
She said kissing his cheek and going back home.he blushed as her softly lips had brushed against his cheek.
"Maybe I'm just a friend."
He said but she had came running back and hugged him once again as he kissed her lips fully.she was supsrised but this was what she wanted..."A real person who loved her."...almost as "True love"
