Don't own Gundam Wing, or Milliardo Peacecraft, or Silent Hill, don't sue.
Author's note: I kinda changed the ages of the characters in this chapter, in the last they were supposed to be about 10, but teenagers are much more fun to use! Anyway, hope you enjoy this one, I think it's better that the last chapter. But it will get better, I promise.
Chapter 2
Rowen was called to the office next day. "Jesus, what now?" she though. her first day had been enough to make her hate the place, and she already hated the small town environment. She went inside the office, and a young secretary led her to the principal's room.
The old lady was there, Miriam.
"Sit down" she said. Rowen did so without a question. The lady kept her standing position. Miriam was looking at her. Intimidating her. Well, at least she was trying. Rowen wasn't easily intimidated. The lady was freaky without a question but it took more to intimidate her.
"Do you believe in God?" The question took her by surprise. 'Great she's one of those religious freaks' though Rowen. Rowen believed in God, however she was not particularly devoted to the Church. "Yes I believe in God, Madame". It was better to keep the church thing out of it.
"And do you pray for his goodness?"
"Yes I do" she said without having to lie.
"I understand you are new in this town. But if you want to avoid troubles you must learn the proper conducts. What is right, and what is wrong."
Rowen was a bit scared now. She was beginning to understand Miriam was more influential in the town than what she though. And she knew nothing could go wrong in front of Miriam. But most of all she was afraid and even angry at having to deprive herself of the liberties she once had in her previous home. Rowen was scared at what Miriam would deprive her from doing...
"You know that boy you helped?" The lady started to walk slowly to one side of the room.
"That was a good act. An act of compassion" she said these last words slowly, but gently. "However,", this was the part Rowen feared.
"I must warn you that boy is...well...rather odd" she said, her tone was more serious now, more angry and darker. "Believe me child, I know what I'm saying, I am his aunt after all."
'His aunt? A very mean and crazy aunt' she though.
"But I think you shouldn't be with him." she said as she finally stopped just a few feet in front of her. "That boy is an omen, a bad influence. He is against the Church and anyone against the church is against God!" she said, in a rather angrier and darker tone.
'FREAK!!!!' Rowen was tense now, she was scared at the lady, that was a given. 'All this because he's against the church? wow, this woman's insane!' she thought.
"You must promise me that you will not be with him. he's not good. And imagine what being seen with him would do to you family's reputation. It would tare them apart wouldn't it?"
'True enough.' she thought. The reason Rowen had moved was because her parents thought it would be good to move in with her mother's family. Rowen's grandmother was friends with Miriam. They were the kind of people who must know everyone, except if it affects their image. This small town was all about ' reputation' and 'good image'. If any of those were affected, you were burned in the stake, literally.
So Rowen decided that even though she hated lying, this was an opportunity to increase her creativity skills.
" Yes miss Miriam, I want to do what is right" she said with a well worked smile in her face.
"And doing what's right is staying away from him" those last words were marked.
"Yes madam" Rowen replied thinking 'I'm such a good hypocrite'
"Well I am glad that you have chosen this. I knew you would understand" she said, with a smile. Rowen smiled back.
"well now, I wont keep you from your classes any longer" Rowen stood up.
"Now if that boy bothers you, be sure to tell me. You must not be seen with him, remember that" she said this as she led Rowen to the door.
"Yes madam" she said as she stood outside of the room.
" Well have a nice day miss Rhivenoldo" Miriam said as she closed the doors.
School had ended, and all the kids had ran to their houses, something Rowen wasn't used to happening back in her home, were everyone was picked up by their parents in a CAR. And that's what she was waiting for. Being picked up.
Rowen waited for about twenty minutes, and she figured her parents wouldn't arrive yet. So she figured she could wonder the school grounds, at least for a while.
The school was empty, and freaky. she didn't want to wonder alone, so she decided to go back outside. As she ran outside a hand came out of one of the rooms, caught her and pulled her towards it. Rowen instinctively hit the person when she realized it was Milliardo.
"What?" she said startled, and trying to catch her breath. "What are you doing here? aren't you supposed to be in the hospital?"
The boy smirked. "Do you think they care that much about me?"
Rowen looked away, she was scared now, she could be caught with him, and she looked around to make sure no one was near.
"I heard her talking shit about me" said Milliardo, who had noticed her preoccupation.
"You what?" she asked, a bit startled. "How did you hear?"
"I snuck up in the ceiling" he answered back, very casually.
"Oh really?" she said. "Well no offence but your aunt's nuts".
Milliardo laughed. "Thank God, finally someone who notices"
"How old are you?" she snapped back. "Fourteen"
"Oh, you're older than me"
"yeah, you're thirteen right?"
"Yeah...have you been stocking me?"
Milliardo smiled a bit. "No, I'm not. You're not that hot"
"Jajaja! very funny" she said, but Milliardo was really laughing.
"Hey I saved you, big boy. Remember? Oh wait, you don't. You fainted."
Milliardo stoped laughing slowly. Rowen smiled a bit. 'SCORE!' she though
"Anyway, why did you drag me here?" she asked.
"I think we might be friends" he said back.
"Friends?" she said back.
"yeah, I have a couple, you brother included"
"Trowa?" she asked.
"Yeah Trowa, surprised?"
"A bit"
"You guys are outta town, you don't believe all this crap Miriam feeds to these people. That's why I think we could be friends"
"O-kay. But I'll get into trouble."
"Most likely" he said smiling. Rowen frowned.
"I'm joking. Jesus, no I wouldn't let you and your brother get into trouble."
"Right, so how do we hang out, and talk and all that?"
"Well, we hide."
"Okay"
"Give me your cell phone number, that way we could text message each other"
"So that's how this thing's gonna work?"
"Look, if you don't want to be my friend that's okay" he said, in serious tone.
"No way!" she said. Milliardo smiled back.
"I saved you, I need you around"
"Why?"
"Because, one day you will save my ass"
