Hey everyone! Well, I've finally got chapter two done. I was kinda hoping it would be a bit longer, but I liked the ending I gave it too much to continue and I didn't want needless filler.
Chapter Two
Things changed; that was the inevitable. This was one change she never thought she'd need to face. They were friends, best friends. She couldn't ignore it; it would never work, because no matter what she did, it would never go away.
She couldn't fault Kuga. She couldn't take her anger out on her. They were both in the same boat after all; their best friends were in love with them.
Only…
Only she was sure that Kuga was capable of loving Fujino, if she wasn't already in love with her.
But…
She'd never thought about it. She'd never felt as though there were any need to do so. But now…
She honestly didn't know if she could have those kinds of feelings. She…she wished she could. It would make things better, simpler.
She thought of her as a friend, a sister, a confidante. Never as a lover.
Haruka cried.
They were afraid of her. Angry at her. She could see it. They wouldn't forgive her, never completely.
She hadn't been the only one who had…gone mad…yet everyone else seemed instantly forgiven.
Fujino most of all. That woman was ten times worse than her. She hadn't killed anyone, hadn't slaughtered anyone, Fujino had. And yet…yet she was the one they were nervous around, the one they avoided. Not Fujino.
Damn them.
They'd never wanted her to begin with.
Damn them.
She grinned. It was about time she went back to normal. It had been so…boring before.
"I see that you are adjusting well."
She smiled at the smaller girl. "Now, now Hotaru."
"You always did like to tease me."
"Of course," she laughed. "I missed you, you know."
"You've been here the whole time."
"But not like this."
"You're not supposed to call me Hotaru. I told you that already."
"Yeah, yeah." She grew quiet, then "one thing."
"Yes?"
"I'm never making tea again."
Something was definitely up. The dreams hadn't stopped; if anything, they'd grown stronger. Soon…soon she'd be able to remember them. She was sure of it.
She'd questioned Mikoto, asking her if she'd experienced any unusual dreams lately. The girl had gone on about some type new food and then told her that she was hungry and that she wanted ramen.
Mai sighed. Something was up; she could feel it.
She woke up, once again dazed. Her dreams…She wasn't too sure about them. But…
Natsuki laid her head on her hand.
Her dreams…
There were the strange…odd dreams, the ones she couldn't remember.
And then…
Then there were the other dreams.
And in those dreams…In those dreams she kissed Shizuru.
