That one day Chapter 3: His past, a full moon wo sagashite fanfic

Guy's I am so sorry for taking like two months to update, my computer decided to bust, and I finally was able to put this up! Please forgive me! (bows holding out cookie) Anyways I don't plan on this story being extremely long, maybe only a couple of chapters. Anyways back to the story! Enjoy :D

Chapter 3: His past.

Many weeks have passed and Mitsuki and Takuto were planning for their first concert. The only problem was they didn't have any songs written yet.

"Ok so you two will need to write a song together, does that sound ok with you?" Masami asked. The two looked at each other.

"We can try it, but I don't know how it will go." Takuto said looking at the short teen besides him.

"Why don't you come over to my place tomorrow and we can discuss it." Mitsuki said with a smile. He nodded.

"Absolutely not!" Aoi said loudly. Mitsuki winced.

"But dad! This is for our first concert! If we don't write a song soon, we will have to sing one of the crappy things they call songs that the company wrote!" Mitsuki said. Aoi sighed and looked at the girl.

"Do I have to get on my knees and beg?" She asked. He chuckled.

"No Mitsuki that isn't necessary." He said. Hazuki shook her head.

"Oh come on Aoi! Let the boy come over. I mean you know how it is to be in love." She said. Mitsuki blushed.

"MOM! I do not like him!" She screeched. Aoi put his hands over his ears.

"Geez, by the sounds of your voice, you are in love with him." He said frowning. Mitsuki blushed even harder. Hazuki wrapped her arm around Aoi's shoulder.

"Honey, it looks like our little girl has fallen hard for this man." She said.

"I won't allow it." He said pouting. Hazuki slapped his arm.

"Would you act like an adult! She is eighteen years old, she is allowed to fall in love Aoi, we were together when we were sixteen!" She said and then looked over to see that the teen had run off to her room. She had her face buried in her pillow.

"Why are parents so embarrassing?" She asked out loud. She blushed again, thinking of Takuto. Yes it was true, she did indeed like the man. But she didn't even think about loving him until her mother had started talking about it.

"Mitsuki, Takuto is allowed to come over, just please behave because we are going to be at work." Hazuki said. Mitsuki nodded her head.

"Good, that way you don't have to embarrass me." She mumbled into the pillow.

"Nice place you've got here shorty." He said walking through the door with his guitar strapped to his back. Mitsuki blushed and closed the door behind him.

"Thanks Takuto." She squeaked out. He set his guitar on the ground and turned around to look at the flustered girl.

"Well are we going to write a song?" He asked. She nodded and led him to her room.
"So do you have any ideas?" She asked as they sat down on the floor. He pulled out his guitar.

"Well, I have the music, I just can't think of the lyrics." He said and started to play the music. I hummed along.

"My overflowing tear drops dissolved into the blue midnight,
and without hesitation, I was drawn in and met you in a warm encounter.
Your honest words where as white as now,
I collected my iron feathers and started to move."

Takuto had stopped playing. The girl opened her eyes and looked at him.
"That was deep Mitsuki." He said with wide eyes. I blushed and looked at the ground.

"But the lyrics were so beautiful, yet sad. Did you seriously come up with those on the spot?" He asked. She nodded her head slowly.

"Do you have any more lyrics?" He asked. Mitsuki placed a finger on her lips.

"Start playing again and we will see." She said with a smile. He obeyed her, but kept his eyes on her. She blushed and avoided his gaze.

"My sad memories transcended through time…
The one who will accept them is you…the goddess of light.
What shined that day was the ETERNAL BLAZE of your heart.
I'll break away from my darkness, the door to my freedom
and strong unending future is opening."

"How do you do that?" He asked amazed at her lyrics. She blushed and shrugged.

"It just came to me." She said flipping her hair over her shoulder. Takuto set his guitar against her bed.

"What's the song about?" He asked boring his eyes into her. She shrugged.

"I don't know, they just came to my mind." She answered. He raised his eyebrows.

"Is it about Eichi?" He asked. She blushed and shook her head.

"No way!" She said loudly. He just laughed.

"Ok whatever you say." He said.

The two worked for two more hours on the song. Soon they had completed lyrics.

"Well that was easier than I thought." Mitsuki said lying down on the floor. Takuto chuckled and lie down next to her.

"Takuto," She said quietly turning on her side to look at him. He also turned to look at the girl.

"Are you going to tell me about your past?" She asked. He stared at her before turning onto his back.

"I don't know yet Mitsuki." He said quietly. The young girl nodded. She suddenly sat up.

"What time is it Takuto?" She called out loudly. He also sat up confused.

"It's almost five, why?" He asked. She suddenly stood up and ran over to her closet.

"I'm supposed to meet my parents at a party at six! And I still have to get ready! I don't even know what dress I'm wearing." She said looking through her closet frantically.

"Calm down Mitsuki, why don't you go get ready, and I will pick out a dress." He said pushing her aside lightly.

"You're a guy! You don't know what would look nice!" She said throwing her hands in the air. He chuckled.

"Hikari is a model, I know what looks nice. She gave me a lecture." He said shivering. Mitsuki giggled.

"A lecture?" She asked. He nodded.

"Hurry up! Go get ready! You only have about half an hour." He said. Mitsuki nodded and ran into the bathroom. She blushed heavily and started to put on her make-up and curling her hair. Once she was finished she walked out into her room to see Takuto holding out a dress.
"Hurry go change, I'll go start the car, and come out when you're done." He said. She nodded and waited until he was out of the house to put on the dress. She examined herself in the mirror.

"Wow, he does know what he's doing." She whispered. He had picked out a dark blue strapless dress that came down to her knees, with a slit in on the right leg. A black bow was wrapped around her waist, complementing the dress. She grabbed her black over coat and her purse and ran out the door locking it. She saw Takuto sitting in his car and ran over quickly. She opened the door. He looked over at her and his eyes widened.

"What? Is there something on my face?" She asked frantically. He shook his head and coughed.

"No, you just look really beautiful." He said looking away from her. Mitsuki blushed and got in the car.

"Thank you." She whispered. He nodded slowly and then drove off. The brown haired girl took quick glances at Takuto, still blushing. 'I can't believe he told me I was beautiful! I shouldn't get my hopes up though. He already has a girlfriend, and a model at that. I'm no match for a model. I'm just a plain girl.' She thought sadly. The car was stopped.

"Mitsuki, we are here." Takuto called out. She broke out of her reverie and looked over at him.

"Thank you for helping me out Takuto." She said smiling at him. He smiled back and nodded.

"No problem shorty, now go before you're late!" He said. She nodded and got out of the car. She waved and ran into the building to where her parents were waiting.

"Wow, you actually made it, I thought you were going to forget." Aoi said. Hazuki slapped his arm.

"Be nice." She said. He just laughed.

"You look beautiful honey, I didn't know you had that dress." Hazuki said. Mitsuki nodded blushing.

"Takuto picked it out for me." She said.

"He was still there when you were getting ready!" Aoi asked loudly. Mitsuki nodded.

"I actually did forget about the dinner, so Takuto helped me out and even drove me over here." She said.

"What a gentlemen. Calm down Aoi, he was only trying to help, no harm done." Hazuki said. Aoi shook his head.

"He didn't try to touch you did he?" He asked. Mitsuki blushed.

"DAD!" She said loudly, making people look over at them. She covered her mouth.

"No he didn't! He already has a girlfriend! And anyway, he would never do something like that." She hissed quietly.

"Ok, fine then. How did the song writing go?" He asked.

"We got a song, it's called Eternal Blaze." She said. Everyone was starting to sit down at the many tables.

"That's good, now let's go sit down." Aoi said patting her back.

"Thank you for coming tonight!" The host said loudly. They all clapped for him.

"I hope you enjoy your dinner." The room was then filled with glasses clinking together. Mitsuki's parents talked to the people sitting at their table while the young girl just stared at her food. She sighed and picked up her fork and took a bite. She still hadn't found out about Takuto's past. She knew that it was probably really difficult for him, but she thought he would have at least told her by now. She felt her phone vibrate in her purse.

"Excuse me." She said standing up and rushing to the bathroom.

"Hello?" She answered looking at the stalls to see no one there.

"I just wanted to make sure you got to your parents ok." Takuto said. She blushed heavily.

"Um, yes I did, we are eating dinner. Did you get home ok?" She asked, mentally kicking herself for sounding so stupid. He just chuckled.

"Yes, I'm at my apartment. I'm sorry I interrupted your dinner, but I wanted to ask you if you wanted to come to my place tomorrow." He said. She bit her lip to prevent herself from screaming out of excitement.

"Yeah I would love to." She answered as calmly as she could.

"Ok, just please don't forget the lyrics, because you seem to forget important things." He joked. She looked down at the floor.

"Oh shut up! Of course I'll remember them, well I have to go. See you tomorrow." She hung up quickly and frowned.

"I'm so stupid, of course he wasn't asking me over for a date, it's just to work on our song. I really need to stop getting my hopes up." She mumbled walking out of the bathroom and to her table.

"Where were you dear?" Hazuki asked. She plastered on a fake smile.

"I just had to go to the bathroom." She answered sitting down in her chair. Aoi brought his attention to her.

"They don't have a band, they canceled on them, because someone got sick, Mitsuki, could you please sing?" He asked. The girl blushed and nodded. She stood up walking onto the small stage. She turned to the pianist.

"Do you know the song Love the way you lie?" She asked. He nodded. Mitsuki walked over to the microphone and took it off the stand.

"Hello, so I'm sure you've heard that the band wasn't able to make it. I am Koga Mitsuki and I shall be singing for you tonight." She said with a smile. I nodded at the pianist.

"On the first page of our story, the future seems so bright.
And this thing turned out so evil, I don't know why I'm still surprised.
Even angels have their wicked schemes and you take death to new extremes.
But you'll always be my hero, even though you lost your mind.

Just gonna stand there and watch me burn,
But that's alright because I like the way it hurts.
Just gonna stand there and hear me cry,
But that's alright because I love the way you lie, I love the way you lie.
I love the way you lie.

Now this gravel in our voices, glass is shattered from the fight.
In this tug of war, you'll always win, even when I'm right.
Cause you feed me fables from your hand,
With violet words and empty threats and it's sick that all these battles are what keeps me satisfied.

So maybe I'm a masochist
I try to run but I don't wanna ever leave.
Til the walls are goin' up in smoke with all our memories

The piano faded out and everyone started to clap loudly. She smiled.

"Thank you very much!" Mitsuki said loudly looking over at her parents, who were clapping and smiling at her proudly.

"Now, I know that song was a little depressing, so now I will sing on a happier note." She said.

"Miracles happen!" Everyone started to clap.

"You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, miracles happen

She started to dance with the guitarist smiling as she sang.

I can't imagine living my life without you now
Not ever having you around
We found our way out
(on you I can depend)
Don't have to look back to realize how far we've come
There are a million reasons
I'm looking up
I don't want this to end

Nothing
Nothing should ever bring you down
Knowing what goes around will come around

You showed me faith is not blind
I don't need wings to help me fly
Miracles happen, once in a while
When you believe
(miracles happen)
You showed me dreams come to life
That taking a chance on us was right
All things will come with a little time
When You believe

There is no question we found the missing pieces
Our picture is completed
It's fallen into place
(it's fallen into place)
This is our moment, you and I are looking up
Someone is watching over us
Keeping me close
Closer to you everyday

Nowhere
Nowhere on earth I'd rather be
No one can take this away from you and me

When you believe
The soul is a shining light
When you believe
The heart has the will to fight
You can do anything, don't be afraid
We're gonna find our way

There was an uproar of applauding. Mitsuki bowed and waved to everyone.

"Thank you for letting me sing." She said. She handed the microphone to Mr. Kaneko. He was the actual host of the party.

"Thank you Miss Koga for singing so wonderfully." Everyone clapped again. She bowed and then walked off the stage back to her parents.

"That was amazing honey! I can't wait to hear you sing your new song with Takuto. And don't forget that we still have to meet him." Hazuki said. Mitsuki blushed and looked down at her cold food.

"It's not like he's my boyfriend or something." She mumbled.

"What was that dear?" Hazuki called out. Mitsuki shook her head violently.

"Nothing, mom." She said started to eat the cold food so she wouldn't have to talk. She just wanted this night to be over so the next day could come more quickly. The rest of the night was uneventful, well except for all the boys that asked to dance with her.

"Excuse me miss, may I dance with you?" She turned around and put on her best smile.

"Sure of course." They started to dance away from all the adults.

"I've seen you getting mobbed by all these, gentlemen, how are you surviving?" He asked. She smiled.

"I'm fine I guess, but a lot of these guys are real perverts and were just trying to seduce me." She growled. He chuckled.

"Well I promise I won't even try to do that." He said. She smiled and looked up at him.

"I think you are the nicest person I've met tonight." She said. He smiled kindly down at her.

"Thank you, Mitsuki is it?" He asked. She nodded. He twirled her around and then back into his arms.

"You know you really do have pretty eyes." He said. She blushed.

"Thank you." She whispered. He chuckled. It was quiet between the two dancers before he spoke up.

"So, let's say you are stranded on an island, would you rather eat your arm, or your leg?" He asked. She giggled.

"What kind of question is that?" She asked still laughing quietly. He chuckled along with her.

"Just answer it silly." He said.

"I would have to say, neither because it's gross." She said. He lightly tapped her arm.

"That's not the right answer." He said with a smirk.

"Ok then I would choose my arm." She said. He nodded.

"Good answer, why not your leg?" He asked.

"Because I wouldn't be able to walk very well if I didn't have a leg, and I would be able to do much more with both of my legs attached to my body." She said. He laughed.

"You've got a good point." He said.

"Mr. Koga, I haven't seen my son smile and laugh like that in months. Your daughter truly is amazing." Mr. Tanaka said.

"Thank you Sir, they do look quite well together, do you think they should get engaged?" He asked.

"That's a good idea. Let's talk about it over dinner next Wednesday. And bring your family along." They shook hands.

"So what's your name?" Mitsuki asked and they continued to dance to another song without realizing.

"Matthew Tanaka." He said. She raised her eyebrows.

"Matthew, isn't that an America name?" She asked. He nodded blushing slightly.

"My mom is American, while my father is Japanese." He explained. She nodded.

"That's really cool, I wish I was half American." She said with a pout. He chuckled at her.

"Well you always get mobbed by a lot of people for being one." He said. The song ended and they pulled apart.

"Thank you for that lovely dance Matthew." Mitsuki said bowing. He bowed also.

"Will I see you again Mitsuki?" He asked. She smiled.

"Probably. I at least hope so, because you are my new best friend." She said with a huge smile. He blushed and nodded. Mitsuki walked back over to her parents.

"Did you have a nice time Mitsuki?" Hazuki asked. She nodded. They began to walk out of the building until someone almost ran into Mitsuki.

"Oh Mitsuki! Thank god!" She frowned.

"I'm sorry do I know you?" She asked. The beautiful woman placed her hands on her knees and panted.

"I'm Hikari, Takuto's girlfriend! Please, you have to come with me, something is wrong with him, I don't know what to do." She said.

"Dad! Please you have to help him." Mitsuki said. He nodded and they all got in the car and rushed back to Takuto's apartment. Hikari led us to the right room and opened the door. There was Takuto lying on the couch crying out in agony. Mitsuki's eyes widened and she ran over to him.

"Dad! Hurry!" She yelled taking Takuto's hand in hers. His eyes were closed shut tightly and he was panting quite heavily. Aoi rushed over and started to examine the boy. It was quiet except for Takuto crying out in pain.

"I think he is dreaming right now, but whatever is happening to him in the dream, his body seems to think it's actually being harmed. So he is in actual pain right now, and is running a fever, we just need to wake him up." Aoi said standing up. Mitsuki looked down at Takuto's face.

"Takuto wake up! Please!" She yelled loudly. He didn't budge. She slapped his face lightly. Still nothing. Hikari sat down next to Mitsuki and placed her lips on his. Mitsuki felt a twist in her heart but ignored it. Still nothing.

"Dad! What do we do?" Mitsuki asked frantically.

"He won't be able to wake up as long as he's experiencing the actual pain! You need to calm him down, distract him from the dream." He said. Hazuki placed a cold cloth on Takuto's forehead. Mitsuki felt tears in her eyes.

Everybody grew quiet as she sang the song they had written only hours ago. Takuto's breathing slowed and his face relaxed. She continued to sing to try and calm him down and he finally relaxed completely. She sighed quietly. Hikari then suddenly hugged her.

"Thank you so much Mitsuki. You don't have any idea how much Takuto means to me." She whispered. Mitsuki felt heartbroken, she knew that he already had a girlfriend, but she couldn't even think about trying to rip this couple apart. Mitsuki held back her tears and patted her back.

"You're welcome." She whispered. There was a groan next to them and they turned to Takuto.

"What happened?" He asked quietly. He turned to look at everyone in the room.

"Why are you here?" He asked confused. Hikari tackled him in a hug. He looked at Mitsuki for answers. She blushed lightly.

"Well Mr. Kira, it seems that you were dreaming about something, and your body was reacting to that. But I have a question, where did you get all those scars on your body?" Aoi asked. Takuto froze and let go of Hikari. Everyone's eyes were on him.

"I'm sorry sir, but I don't want to answer that question." He said quietly.

"I know it may be hard Mr. Kira, but please, I'm a doctor, and I need to know." Aoi said. Takuto took a deep breath.

"I can only tell Mitsuki, I'm sorry, so if you give us some time please, I will tell her everything. You too Hikari." He said looking at his girlfriend. She nodded, already knowing that Takuto never talked about his past and if he was willing to tell Mitsuki, she was willing to step aside and be left out of the conversation.

"Ok come on Hikari, let's go get some coffee." Hazuki said. Everyone exited the door. Mitsuki looked back at Takuto.

"Are you feeling ok?" She asked. He sat up, but she pushed him back down. He looked up at her in surprise.

"You need to stay lying down, or you won't feel better." She said. She grabbed the cloth and ran into the kitchen to wet it down and then ran back to Takuto and wiped down his face.

"You didn't answer my question." She said smiling at him.

"Oh, um I'm ok I guess, just exhausted." He said. She nodded and set the cloth to the side.

"Mitsuki, before I tell you anything, just understand that this isn't going to be easy for me to say, or for you to hear." He said quietly. It was quiet except for a ticking of a clock.

"Ok." She answered. He looked at the ground and then back at her.

"I was five years old when my mother died. I don't remember her much, but I know that she was an amazing woman. I was told that I have her eyes, and talent. Anyway, once she had passed away, my father, he had started to drink a lot. He only drank a little each night for about two years, until it was constant. That was when he started to hurt me mentally. He cursed at me about being the ugliest thing ever and that I didn't deserve to exist. He just cussed me out randomly sometimes. Then when I turned nine, that's when the abuse started. It was only a slap per day, but soon he started to punch and kick me whenever he thought I was out of place. I was so scared to do anything, I cried myself to sleep sometimes. I had to nurse my own wounds and clean up after him, and if I didn't he would beat me again. Then I turned ten. I stood up to him. I yelled at him for everything he had done, and that mom would hate to see him like this. And once I had mentioned that one word, that one name, he went on a rampage. He threw plates and glasses at me, and tossed the tables, and threw furniture at me. I tried to fight back, but he pulled a knife out on me and sliced my stomach, arms, and legs. He was holding me by the throat and whispering into my ear, the worst thing that I had ever heard. "I can kill you, just like I did your mother." I tried to pry away from him and he just threw me against the walls. I thought I was going to die from so much blood loss. But I somehow found enough strength and ran out of the house and ran as far as I could until I had collapsed and fell unconscious. Hikari had saved me, she brought me into her parents house and nursed my wounds, but never once asked me what had happened. After that, I left her family once I was healthy, and went on my own." He finally finished telling his long and painful story for the first time in over ten years. He looked over at Mitsuki to see her crying. He smiled softly at her and took her in his arms.

"It's ok Mitsuki, I'm here aren't I?" He asked. She nodded her head.

"It's just so sad, nobody deserves to go through that pain." She whimpered. Takuto held onto her tightly. It was quiet for awhile before Mitsuki pulled out of his grasp and wiped her eyes.

"Thank you Mitsuki." He said suddenly. She looked at him confused.

"You saved me from my own dream. The song, it was so soothing." He said quietly. She blushed.

"You're welcome." She said with a big smile.

"What time is it?" She asked looking around for a clock. He looked over that the clock on the wall.

"It's 1:30. Mitsuki, you must be exhausted." He said looking down at the girl in his arms. She had fallen asleep, cuddling up against him. The door opened behind him and turned around to shush them. They froze and nodded walking over to him.
"She fell asleep huh?" Aoi said. Takuto nodded.

"She did have a long day, and it is pretty late. I hate that we have to wake her up." Hazuki whispered. Takuto looked up at Mitsuki's parents.

"She can stay here for the night, I don't mind." He said. Aoi looked at Hazuki.

"I don't know, we barely know you." He answered.

"Maybe so, but Mitsuki trusts me." Takuto said. The adults sighed and nodded their heads.

"Fine, but we won't be able to pick her up, we have work." Hazuki said. Takuto shrugged.

"I can drive her." He said. It was quiet until they finally agreed.

"What about me Takuto?" Hikari asked. Takuto looked up at her.

"Don't you have work in the morning?" He asked. She nodded sadly.

"Ok I guess I'll see you tomorrow then." She said kissing his head. All three of them walked out the door. He sighed and looked down at the sleeping girl. He hated that she had to sleep in a dress, but it would be very rude and inappropriate to change her himself. He sighed and then thought of something. He picked her up in his arms gently and walked to his room. He lied her down on the bed and picked out one of his old shirts, and some basket ball short he never wore. He sat her up with one arm and place the shirt over the dress. He then pulled the shorts up her legs. He tried not to laugh at how ridiculous she had looked. He then reach behind her and unzipped the dress and slipped it off over the shorts.

"There, hopefully she won't freak out in the morning." He whispered picking her back up and carrying her to the guest bedroom and placing her under the covers.

"Good night Mitsuki." He whispered exiting the room.

Wow, that was a long chapter... I'm sorry if some parts were boring, I tried to make it as interesting as possible. I don't own the song Eternal Blaze by Mizuki Nana. Well please review!
