Chapter 2~ The day You Slipped Away

Somewhere In New York…

Somewhere in the streets of New York, a girl covered in ashes was lying on the floor. She looked dirty and hurt with cuts all over her body. Most of her clothing was in shreds. The girl was unconscious. Suddenly, a man in a black car pulled over right across the street after seeing the girl. He quickly got off his car and went to check her pulse. He noticed the faint thumping that seemed to make its through her wrist. He didn't mind much because at least she was alive. Without any hesitation, he lifted the girl up and carried her all the way to his car. He needed to take her to the hospital and fast. He drove to the nearest one in the area they were in. When he arrived at his desired destination, a group of doctors and nurses came to assist him. A short while after the girl had been whisked away; a nurse came up to him with a form and asked him about what relationship he had with the teen.

"I'm her father's best friend, she's been missing for days and when I found her she was… like this" He lied. The nurse nodded and went away.

The man in the dark suit sighed. He knew this pesky girl was not Lucia Henry. No, she was not as she looked nothing like her. The only thing similar between those two would be there hair color, age and eye color. Nothing more.

He suspected she was one of the survivors of the recent plane crash but he decided to keep quite. If he said that this girl was in fact Lucia then he was sure they would stop searching for the real one. Yes, that was what he was going to say. He couldn't risk his "best friend" finding out his plans. No, he just couldn't. He knew if they ever found out that real Lucia was on a "little trip to hell" caused by him then he would be in trouble... And if they ever found her she would not hesitate on telling her father about his evil schemes.

"James...I 've found your daughter...Yes.. .Alright I'll wait for you." He smirked as he finished talking to his "best friend."

As he finished talking a nurse came up to him and orderd him to follow her, he did. It had been quite some time since the girl had been rushed into the care unit and most of her fatal wounds had been treated. The man followed the nurse into the room the girl was staying. He approached her bed slowly and silently as if even the slightest of noise would wake her from her slumber. The nurse took this as the perfect moment to leave the two alone. She quickly made her way out of the room but not before checking if everything on the girl was in good condition.

"You'll be great use to me girl." The suited man said as he touched the girl's cheek.

He couldn't help but smile evilly to himself.

Ooo. Moments Later. ooO

"Richard! Where is she? Tell me!" Pleaded a man. He looked like he was in his early 30's but he had not one wrinkle or any sign of ageing. No, he was handsome and very well built.

"She's in there but she's still asleep." The man in the black suite replied as he pointed to a room. The man ran to the room and opened the door. He gasped when he spotted his "daughter" in the bed. Tears formed in his eyes and in a matter of seconds he was by her side. He couldn't let this happen. No, not again. He already went through his wife' s death and he couldn't imagine his daughter going through the same thing. He smiled as he brushed a strand of her hair with his fingers. While doing that, he happened to spot a rose. He smiled and fixed it on her light blue hair.

"Please be okay Lucy. My darling princess." He whispered. Just then, she started fluttering her eyes open.

[Runo 's P.O. V.]

I opened my eyes. I had to adjust my sight at first but then Everything became visible. I looked at everything around me...Where am I? Am I in a hospital? I looked around some more and found a man I never seen before. He looked in like he was in his late 30's. He had blue green eyes and had a caring smile. He was muscular. I'm sure many women wouldn't mind going on a date with him. Even with all those good looks, he looked like someone who had suffered a lot of pain. Surprisingly, he looked happy to see me awake. Who is he? Do I know him? Is he my father? More importantly who am I? I was lost in my own train of thoughts until I heard the man speak.

"Lucy, are you okay? Who hurt you?" The man asked me. Lucy? Was that my name?

"Who. ..Who am I?" I asked softly. His eyes widened as realization dawned on him.

"You... You don't remember anything sweety?" He asked in a fatherly voice.

"No.. .Are you my dad?" I asked, he smiled and nodded.

"Yes, and I'll take better care of you so don't worry. You'll get back your memory." He said gently. I nodded.

"Yeah." I answered shyly. For some reason everything feels. ...wrong.

[End of P.O .V.]

{2 Months Later}

"C'mon Lucy it was just a kiss… It's normal we are dating after all." A jet black haired boy with dark brown eyes said to the blue haired beauty who was now boiling with anger.

"Yes! But I told you I did not want to! I know everybody says that we kissed a lot when I had my memories but I'm just not so sure." The girl known as Lucy reported.

"I'm sorry honey here let me make it up to you " The boy told her.

"No it's alright besides I have to get home Luke" Lucy stated before letting out a sigh.

"Alright, but… are you mad?" He asked.

"No.. .I'm not. Bye!" She said waving good bye as she managed a smile. Once "Lucia" left, the man who found her on the streets came out of the shadows. He approached his son and asked,

"Luke is everything alright?"

'"No! This pesky girl just keeps being stubborn! Why do I have to

this?"

"Because, if you want to live in luxury everyday you must insure your future and that means staying with Lucia." The adult stated.

"But she's not even Lucia. ...Lucia used to be much easier to manipulate then this pesky girl!" Luke shouted crossing his hands.

"But James doesn't know that! Now shut it and let' s go eat." The man ordered instantly Luke fallowed. He was getting impatient and Luke knew that. Since he didn't want to anger his father any more he did as he was told with no comment or question.

+~°In the Henry Household°~+

"Princess, how was your date?" James asked "his daughter".

"It was fine ...I'm going to bed early dad." The teenage girl responded as she headed up the stairs.

Once she was inside she stood for a minute and sighed. Why does everything here feel wrong. She asked herself. She felt as if someone was missing like...like Luke was'nt the one who was supposed to kiss her...Everything felt as if she belonged to someone else...Like no one could touch her, hug her, and more importanly no one could kiss her but...Him...But who was he?

Ugh Lucia your just imagining things this is your life...No it's not...Ugh stop it. Lucia kept battaling inside her head. She felt as if her heart said something and her logic told her otherwise. Just go to sleep Lucia. She put on her pj's and went under her covers. She waited intill slumber over took her and when it did. She dreamt.

¤Runo / Lucia's Dream¤

[Runo 's P.O. V.]

"Dan! Let's go play outside" I said excitedly.

"Come on Runo. It's raining... why don't we go see movie." A chocolate brown hair said to me. I assumed he was Dan.

"Come on Dan I love the rain! I think it great...Please ." I pleaded. He sighed.

"Fine." He said as he gave in.

"Great let' s go!" I said while grabbing on to his hand. All of a sudden I felt warm and protected. I couldn't fight the blush that made its way into my cheeks. The next few hours we spent playing, laughing and just fooling around…in the rain.

"Are you happy... Now we're all wet!" Dan said in between laughs.

"Very!" I said giggling. I smiled…and then my dream changed to a different setting. I believed it was an airport.

"Promise not to forget me okay. " I said while tears were falling down my cheeks .

"Runo, you know I wouldn't forget you even if I wanted to. Plus, we will always keep in contact, right?" I forced a smile as he told me this .

"Right." I said.

"One last thing." He looked in my eyes. Before I knew it, he leaned in and my eyes widened as his lips pressed against mine. It felt so good and I instantly kissed back. He took my breath away with that kiss. It was a great one to say the least.

"I love you" He whispered when we pulled back.

"I Love you too" I replied.

We hugged one more time and he left just like that. I cried once again and raced after him but he was...gone.

¤End of Runo/ Lucia's Dream¤

"Dan!" I woke up in cold sweat.

"Don't go. .." I continued .

[End of Runo' s P.O.V .]

[Dan's P.O. V]

I looked out the window in my bedroom. It was raining, I remembered when I loved the rain... I loved it because Runo did. When it rained we use to spend all day outside playing, laughing, and just having fun. Now I despise it because the rain brings back painful memories that I so desperately wanted to forget.

I remembered the day ... the painful day in which I found out that I could no longer see my Runo. The day I found out I could never feel her lips pressed against mine. The day I found out I could never feel her body pressed against mine in a warm filled hug. The day I found out I could not see her beautiful green- blue eyes. I clutched my fists and forced my eyes closed but still tears started rolling down my cheeks. I looked back at my night stand photo of Runo and me on our first date. I hated the fact that the only way I could see her was through a lifeless picture. I remembered the day so perfectly. All the pain I felt. I sat down on my bed looking at our picture. I smiled bitterly as I remembered arriving late...as usual and falling out of my bike as I saw her appearance. I laughed bitterly as I remembered her face when I commented only on her French hat.

All those happy memories faded when I remembered the cold hard truth. The fact that the plane Runo was in had just crashed and the fact that I' ll never be with her ever again. I also remembered how all my friends came over when they found out what happened.

~~F~~ L~~A ~~S~~H~~ B~~ A~~ C~~ K~~

"Daniel why are you up at this hour?" My mom asked as she headed down the stairs.

"Plane crash!"

My mom looked at me, confused by my answer.

"Daniel what are you talking about?" My mom asked me worriedly.

"Are you alright dear?" She asked after noticing my silence.

"Runo..." I closed my eyes tightly as I tried to stop the tears that wanted to come out.

"Sweety, I know you miss Runo bu-" I stopped her before she could say more.

"NO...You don't understand...Her plane... Crashed!" I snapped she covered her mouth with her hands and sat beside me.

"Oh Daniel!" She started. I covered my face with my hands.

"Mom...She... She...She can't be gone...She just...Just Can't?" I told her tears flowing all over my face.

"Sweety there is nothing we could do...Just ..." She stopped.

"JUST WHAT! FORGET HER? NO! I WON'T EVER FORGET HER... SHE WAS MY GIRLFRIEND! HOW COULD I JUST FORGET HER?" I yelled at her. She looked taken aback but sighed.

"Dan I never said that...I also cared for Runo everybody that knew her did but sometimes they have to go but a part of them stays with you… always." She told me.

"But that's just it I don't want a part of her I want her! Only her! With me by my side she is everything to me... Everything." I said as I tried to stop the tears from flowing. But every time I did more would just come out.

She was about to say something but I ran up stairs and started crying repeating Runo's name over and over again. Hours later I fell asleep to a dark nightmare.

Weeks went by and I never went outside my room except for normal things like eating and going to the bathroom and school. I hardly ever talked.

"Dan are you sure you're okay?" Julie asked one day as they walkd home from school. She was affected to just like all there friends but they knew crying was'nt going to resolve things.

"I SAID YES!" I snapped. I then realized what I did so I apologized and ran off .

~~E~~ N~~D ~~~~O~~F~~~~ F~~L~~ A~~ S~~H~~B ~~A ~~C~~ K~~

I've been such a jerk to my friends and family ever since the day you slipped away. I need you Runo…Please come back..
