Kaito and Lucia
Chapter 2
Nanami Garden: Kaito ran down the street back to the place he had been just earlier and climbed over the wall separating him from the angel he met. Keisuke and Gackto, another one of Kaito's cousins, came running up from right behind him.
"Kaito, wait! Come back!" Keisuke called. "Leave him be, we're too late, he's already deep within there by now." Gackto said. "What can we do, we can't just let him stay in there." Keisuke said. "Well, we don't have a choice, unless you want me to call him and tell him it's pointless, love doesn't exist for him, and that he should die alone." Gackto said in a sarcastic tone.
"Hush! He'll hear you, if he does he'll get angry." Keisuke said. "He won't hear us anyway, he's already hidden deep inside the grounds, all we can do is wait for his return. Now let's go before we're seen." Gackto said.
"Fine, it's useless to look for someone who can't be found." Keisuke said.
Lucia's Balcony: Kaito walked throughout the grounds, trying to find which room was hers so he could once again see her. He heard a noise from the balcony above and hid in the darkness that lay just below it. Lucia walked out onto the balcony. Neither of them knew the other was there.
"I can't help but think about that boy i met, Kaito. Ah his very name makes me feel lighter than air, his kind face and gentle smile is what has carried throughout the night. I can't help but admit i might've fallen in love with him." She spoke.
"Should i say something or keep listening?" Kaito asked himself quietly.
"But still, of all families he could be from, why the Domoto family? I bare no grudge against them, but my family does. The very mention or thought of them makes their blood boil, i don't see why they hate each other. If only i could at least see him, maybe that would take my mind off things, but i can't leave the house. Even if i could, i don't know where to find him." She spoke again.
"You don't have to go anywhere to find me, i'm already here." He said appearing out of the darkness. "Kyaa!" She shrieked after he said that, then she blushed a deep red because she realized he heard everything she'd just said.
"That's just mean, eavesdropping on a person's private thoughts." She scolded. "Well, if you wanted them kept secret, you shouldn't say them out loud." He said with a mock look. "Well shame on you for listening when you could've saved me the embarrassment and said something." She scolded again.
He just laughed. "But why are you here? If anyone from my family sees you, they might hurt you." Lucia said with a worried face. "I can be easily hidden by the shadows under the balcony." He said. "But how did you find this place?" She asked.
"I was here earlier don't you remember?" He asked.
"Oh right, but still, i'm not sure if i should see you, as of now i'm forbidden to leave the house." She said with a sad face. "Our families may hate each other but that didn't stop me from coming here tonight, i wanted to see you again." He said with a smile, and she blushed. There was only one thing stopping her from just leaping off the balcony into his arms. Her fear of jumping 20 feet to the ground.
If i could i'd jump, but i'm scared he won't catch me. If only i could jump though, then i could be closer to him. She thought.
"So did you mean everything you said?" He asked. "You mean what i said while you were hiding below me and listening to me?" She asked. He just turned his head to keep her from seeing the red on his face. But she caught it. "Yes. I did mean every word." She answered blushing even redder.
"So, you belong to the Domotos? Who are part of the Panthalassa clan?" She asked. He nodded. "And you belong to the Nanami's who rule the North Pacific?" He asked. "The very same." She answered.
"Lucia!" Nikora called from inside. "Coming! I'll be right back, stay hidden." She said as she ran back inside. "I won't leave until you return." He said getting back into the shadows. Several minutes later she came back outside. "Kaito?" She whispered. He reappeared from under the balcony.
"I'm sorry, i have to go back in for the night. But will i see you again tomorrow?" She asked. "Count on it, how about here at nine o'clock?" He suggested. "In the morning?" She asked and he nodded. "I can hardly wait. Goodnight, Kaito." She said as she walked back in.
"Goodnight, my beloved." He said, and he ran back to the wall and climbed back over it. He ran all the way back to his own family, waiting for the time when he could see his true love once more.
(A.N. Okay, for this next title of the scene, i couldn't think of anyone else so i picked him to be Friar Lawrence, don't kill me or criticize, alright? Just sit back, be quiet and read please. Thank you for your time. End of commentary.)
Mitsuki's Cell: The following morning; Mitsuki was preparing for church when Kaito came in and stood beside him. "Good morning father." Kaito greeted. (Of course you know it's not his real father, it's what people call their reverend in a church.)
"Morning Kaito, you've changed somehow, you're not depressed. Is it Hanon?" Mitsuki asked. "Hanon? Oh no. Those feelings are long gone." He said. "Is it another girl?" Mitsuki asked. "You could say that." Kaito answered. "Well, come on, tell me who she is." Mitsuki pushed. "Her name is Lucia, Lucia Nanami." Kaito finally said.
"A Nanami?" He asked, Kaito nodded. "How could you meet and fall in love with a Nanami? Your family's old enemy?" Mitsuki asked. "I don't know, i couldn't help it, she was just so different from other girls. She's beautiful, and has a voice that sounds like angels." He said. "You really love her don't you?" Mitsuki asked.
"Yes, yes i do." Kaito answered. "I plan on meeting her later this morning, i want to be with her, away from our family's ridiculous feud." Kaito said. "You mean you plan on running away with her?" Mitsuki asked. "If you wanna call it that." Kaito said.
"Fine, i won't stop you, but a word to the wise: choose your paths carefully, one wrong turn and you'll suffer it's consequences." Mitsuki said and he left the room to ring the church bell to signal that it was now 8:00 in the morning.
A Street: Keisuke and Gackto were in the street just outside the Domoto family house. "Where the heck is Kaito?" Keisuke asked. "I don't know, just be patient, he'll be here, he might've gone to church to see Reverend Mitsuki." Gackto said.
Kaito came down the street and called to the two to get their attention. "Kaito! There you are! We've waited all night for you, you didn't come home at all last night. Why? Were you off with a certain girl who happens to be of the Nanami family?" Keisuke asked, wanting answers, and lots of them.
"What are you talking about?" Kaito asked. "Don't play dumb, we saw you climb over their wall, what did you do? Did you see her? Did you tell the girl you love her? Details details!" Keisuke urged. He wasn't making this easy for Kaito to lie his way out.
"I-I wasn't in their property." He lied, but Keisuke nor Gackto was buying it. "Liar.We. Saw. You. Yup, we saw you go into their yard, now tell us what was going on!" Keisuke ushered. "I just wanted to see her, it wasn't anything worth telling you about." Kaito said. "Oh, come on." Keisuke begged. "No." Kaito said. Just then Nikora walked down the street. "Good morning gentlemen." She greeted.
"Good Morning kind maid." Kaito said. "Morning." Keisuke and Gackto said. "Well, if you won't talk, we're going inside, see you later Kaito." Keisuke said as he and Gackto went inside the house. "Kaito? As in Kaito Domoto?" Nikora asked.
"Yes?" He responded. "Oh, your the one. My lady is eagerly awaiting you." Nikora said, but she wasn't too happy to say it. "She is? Lucia?" Kaito asked. Nikora nodded. "She requested i find you so that i could give you this." She said as she handed him a bag. "What's in it?" He asked.
"Inside is a rope that is easy to climb with, just use it to climb up her balcony. It might be safer if you go later on tonight though, to keep your self hidden easier. Doing it in the daytime is a big risk of getting caught by our family. That was all i was instructed to do, i must be on my way. Farewell good sir." Nikora said as she scurried off back to Nanami house.
Kaito looked in the bag and grinned. "Lucia." He said quietly.
Lucia's Bedroom: "It's already nine, where could Nikora be? Did she find Kaito? Oh, where is she?" Lucia said pacing her room. "Milady." Nikora said as she entered the room.
"Nikora, did you find him?" Lucia asked. "Yes and i gave him the bag, but it's best if he comes later on tonight, it's better because the risk of him being seen is not as large as it is during the day." Nikora said. "So he will come tonight?" She asked. Nikora nodded. "Well, i only have to wait at least 12 hours before i can see him again. Thank you Nikora for doing that for me." Lucia said.
"It is my duty to serve you and make sure you're happy. But i must confess, i don't feel comfortable with this." Nikora admitted.
"You're saying you don't approve of me being in love with a member of a family mine despises? That i can't love just because their bloodline is that of the Panthalassa?" Lucia asked. "No, it's not that, i just feel scared that your mother and father will be furious, plus the fact that your supposed to marry Lord Johnny. You met him at the party, that's what the party was for, you two to meet and become engaged." Nikora admitted.
"That party was for me to choose him as my husband?" Lucia asked. "I'm sorry, i shouldn't have said that. "No, no. I'm glad you did, otherwise, i would've found out the hard way. but i refuse to marry such a vile person who has only one thing on his mind." Lucia said as she stormed out of the room.
"Oh, what have i done? Aqua Regina, please forgive me, and Milady." Nikora prayed.
