Hi there! As I understood the main part of readers is for continuing, so here is the next chapter. I didn't have any good ideas for this one, so I made it more humor than drama. Hope it won't be a problem. You can call it like relaxing one, but I promise to make another more dramatic.
chatterbox-hikaru13 Well at first this link I found month or two ago. I began to write fics not long time ago and as I said my English isn't good and year ago it deffinetly was worse than now. At first this kind of idea I had with other movie, but when I sam Mai hime I decided to write with ShizNat (and Mai Hime I saw only this summer). If you don't believe it's your problem. Don't like don't read. I can't say anything else.
ficeler37 Thank you very much for allowing me to continue my story. I hope to not dissapoint you and other readers and I hope that someday you will continue your own work. Sorry for bad feeling in stomach XD and thank you for fiding a mistake, I'll try to correct it ;)
Chapter 2
Lover
Yes, the night was really long back then and all others days too. Natsuki had to go with Shizuru whenever she went. Even to the bathroom! 'Don't look in her direction you pervert!' Right now Natsuki was in the bathroom with Shizuru who was taking a shower, cold one… The temperature in the bathroom was so hot, that poor brown-haired girl couldn't take it anymore.
"Ara, why is it so hot in here? First of all I thought it was mine imagination, but it lasts for some days now. Maybe it's conditioners fault?
"I really wish that it was a conditioner" wished Natsuki with turned back and closed eyes "That woman can make me blush even when she doesn't see me!"
Natsuki's hall body was red and hot. No wonder that Shizuru was hot too. Soon the water stopped falling and blue-haired ghost froze. 'Great! Now she will be walking half naked before she will find clothes. Stop! How do I know that? Natsuki you pervert! You were still watching her!' While Natsuki was frightening with herself, Shizuru already left. 'Hey! I don't feel her presence! Did she leave?' Natsuki quickly opened her eyes and looked around. Realizing that girl wasn't there, she also went to the room.
The towel which was covering girl's body lay on the floor, whileKyoto beauty was dressing. Natsuki immediately turned around. 'Thanks to the skies that she won't be walking half naked again' thought Natsuki remembering previous days. Shizuru really liked to walk around in the towel after a good bath and shower. During this time she liked to lie on the bed and read a book using different poses. Every time when Natsuki saw her, steam immediately came out from her ears and nose, making her ghost existence to isolate the warmth. The room became very hot and Shizuru didn't have anything else like to lie nude. Remembering it, Natsukis face grew red. 'Aaaa! I'm really a pervert! What kind of thoughts do I have! Especially when I can see a real one…Nooooo! I will kick my ass for sure and throw my perverted head somewhere very far!' During another Natsuki's fight with herself, Shizuru was already ready and was heading towards the door. The ghost noticed it and followed after her.
Soon Natsuki found herself and Shizuru in The Fuka University. Shizuru entered the classroom and greeted everyone with her adorable smile. Everybody smiled back. After some time teacher entered the room and lesson began. Natsuki as always stood near wall observing her lover. Smile always found its place on ghosts face. After some lessons it was launch time and as always a lot of fan girls were around her dear Shizuru. 'Don't worry Shizuru. Soon I will find the way how to get rid of these crazy bitches.'
"Hey Fujino-san" came mans voice.
'Not him again! Well at least I can safe her from him.'
A guy with black, long hair which was tied up in ponytail, was coming in Shizurus direction. He had a tray full with food in his hands and smile crossed his face as he saw Kyoto-beauty. It was the same smile which made a lot of girls fell into his trap.
Natsuki didn't know him very well, but after what she saw during these days made her hate him. She couldn't loose this chance. She was going to hurt his pride. She quickly ran towards him and put her leg in front of him. As she hoped, the guy stumbled and fell. His head landed at the food on his tray. Everyone laughed and Natsuki smiled with wide smile. 'That will teach him a lesson.'
"Ara, are you alright Yusuke-kun? asked Shizuru looking at him.
"Yeh, I'm fine. Hmm… It tastes good!" answered the guy, licking his face.
"Good to know. Oh it seems that I have to go now, goodbye Yusuke-kun" said Shizuru and left café.
"Hey, Shizuru mate! I need to talk to you!' said guy running after her.
But before he could leave café, door shut down just in front of him hitting his nose. The guy fell back, screaming in pain. 'Oops, I think I broke his nose.'
Shizuru stopped at the sound and turned around looking at closed door. 'Maybe it's my imagination, but for some time I feel that somebody is looking over me.'
Finally came graduations day. Shizuru as always got up early in the morning to take cold shower. During all these days, Natsuki still didn't use to see naked Shizuru 'It's not right! I can't observe her when she can't see me. Its definitely will turn me into a pervert' After a shower the brunette girl lay down on the bed and began to read a book. After some time she got up and dressed. 'I really need to call a mechanic' thought Shizuru while dialing number on the cell phone.
"Hello, can I speak to Souta-san?... Hello Souta-san! How are you?... Great!... Oh you see it's very hot in my room and I thought that maybe it is because of conditioner. So I would like to ask you to come over and check it… Great, at what time will you come?... It seems that I won't be home at that time, but my maids will let you in… It was nice to speak to you again, bye." The girl closed her cell phone and moved towards the door. 'I wonder who is this Souta? Oh well… Shizuru always had a lot of friends' Natsuki sighed and followed after her lovely girlfriend.
During the day Shizuru was walking around the city waiting for the right time. If to be correct she spend all her free time in the park appreciating fine weather and beautiful sigh. Natsuki as always was by her side 'I never thought that walking in the park could be so interesting. It would be even better if I was alive' Thought Natsuki sitting with Shizuru on the bench. The weather was hot and the sun was pleasantly warming brown-haired woman's body. The feeling was so good that Shizuru lift her head back, showing her smooth neck to the sun stars. 'Beautiful as always…'
Soon the time came and Shizuru went to the flower shop. The shop was very big and different kinds of flowers were seen there. Shizuru passed them by and than stopped. In front of her eyes was beautiful bouquet with a lot of flowers. Not thinking too much she bought it and went to the Fuka School. After some walking she was there. A lot of people came to see the graduation ceremony and in the crowd of people she met familiar faces. It was her old fan club.
"Kaichou-san!"
"How are you?"
"We are so glad to see you again!"
'What?! Again these crazy bitches! When will she have a brake?! I promise Shizuru, I'll save you from them as soon as possible! Oh! I have an idea! I'll be back!' thought Natsuki and quickly disappeared in the crowd.
"Ara, I'm not Kaichou anymore" smiled Shizuru.
"Gome, but we are still very glad to see you again!"
"How nice of you"
During this time Natsuki was walking through the crowd. I mean it! She was walking through peoples bodies and for her surprise no one of them felt cold. But she didn't have time to think about it. Her only mission was to save Shizuru from that crazy crowd.
"Kuga, when will you stop using these shameful words?" came the voice from nowhere.
"Aaaa!" screamed Natsuki jumping in the air "Don't scare me like that!"
"Sorry, but why did you leave Shizuru alone? Are you already bored from her?"
"What?! NEVER!!! I just want to save her from these crazy…"
"Ahem…"
"…crowd" finished Natsuki and looked around "There she is!"
"Who?"
"It's not you business. Better go and look after someone else."
"Ok, ok… Don't be so angry or I will cut your wings"
"What? But I don't have wings!"
"You know what I mean"
"Ok, I'll try my best."
"Fine" it was His last word.
'He left, finally! Ok where is Mai now? Oh, there she is!'
There somewhere in the middle of the crowd stood Mai with her boyfriend Tate and best friend Mikoto. They were smiling and obviously chatting about something interesting. 'Mai is so lucky to have them both by her side… It's bad that I can't be by Shizurus side like this anymore… But I will be with her no matter what and at the moment she needs my help. Ok, now I have to find something to get their attention. Oh, isn't that Mais favorite handkerchief!' In one of the Mai pockets was seen blue handkerchief with red roses on it. Natsuki quickly ran towards Mai and took handkerchief out of her pocket. From the distance it looked like wind pulled it out. Mikoto was the first one who saw flying shawl.
"Mai your hankerchief!"
"What? Where? Oi! Come back here!" shouted the red-haired girl.
'Geez Mai! You didn't change a bit, how on earth will it come back to you? Of course if I won't help it.'
Finally the girl began to run after it and so did others. Running some distance, Natsuki stopped not far from Shizuru who was still surrounded by her fan club. Before putting shawl on the ground, raven-haired ghost checked if Mai was still running after her. For her great pleasure she was.
"Got you!" screamed Mai catching her handkerchief.
"Mai?" asked surprised Shizuru.
"Oh, Shizuru! It is nice to see you again."
"Well didn't I promise that I'll come?"
"Of course you did! I'm sorry"
"You don't have to"
"It seems that you have a company"
"I was just going to leave"
"Goodbye then Fujino-san, it was nice to see you again" said leaving fan girls.
"YES!" shouted Natsuki clenching her fist in front of her.
"Ara, it seems that graduation ceremony is going to begin in ten minutes" said Shizuru looking at her watch.
"Then we should to hurry, oh Mikoto. Please take Shizuru with you."
"Ok" said smiling Mikoto and took Shizuru by her hand "Come"
Shizuru just smiled and followed after her little friend. Also smiling, Natsuki followed after them. Soon they entered the school. The graduation room was already full and everybody were sitting on their places and waiting for the ceremonies beginning. Mikoto quickly passed some people and found two chairs which were still free.
"I found two chairs! Come Shizuru!" shouted Mikoto pulling Shizuru after her.
"I'm coming" said Shizuru and sat down by Mikoto.
Smiling wider Natsuki looked around. It seems that nothing has changed during these 3 months. Yes, three. Natsuki spend one month in hospital before she died. Then she looked at the stage where students already sat. In the first line she could see Mai and behind her Tate, whose hand was on girls shoulder. There not far from them sat Yukino who was shy as always. Looking through all sits she found that one wasn't occupied. 'I wonder who is missing?' thought Natsuki and began to count all students. She froze 'No way! Is this… for me?' Yes, the free chair was left for the student who passed two month ago. Something ached in Natsukis ghost body. She didn't know what to think or do. Her whole body was filling with happiness. 'I never thought that thing like this could make me so happy…' Thinking for a while she mowed towards her sit. One of her hands touched the soft chair 'It's a pity that I don't feel it'. Smiling she sat down. The warm and pleasant feeling ran though her existence. 'It seems that I still will be able to graduate' she could swear that if she wasn't a ghost she would cry.
"Dear ladies and gentlemen" was heard Fumis voice "Today as you see our students are going to graduate. A lot of years have past and a lot of students have already left the doors of our school. Now it is your turn" she said facing students "We wish you success in your future lives and hope that you won't forget us. But before I start ceremony let remember one of our student who passed two months ago. It was a big tragedy for everyone, lets pray for our dear Urashimo Sango…"
'I almost forgot about my new name' Natsuki smiled and looked around. Silence, that was everything that she heard. Everyone at the ceremony were keeping silence to show their respect to gone student. Even Mikoto was quiet, what made Natsuki smile wider.
"And now…" Fumi continued" let our ceremony begin!"
After some speech, students were called one by one. Everyone of them got their diplomas and applauses were heard. When ceremony ended, everybody went outside to talk to each other and say 'goodbye' for the last time. Natsuki, standing in the middle of the crowd, was turning around to see everybody's faces. Somewhere not far from her she saw Yukino with a big bouquet of roses which Haruka gave to her. In the other end she saw her smiling friend Mai who was surrounded by many people. Some of them were Mikoto, Tate, Chie, Aoi and other former HiME. Soon to their group joined Yukino with Haruka and Shizuru.
"My congratulations Mai" said Shizuru and gave her bouquet to Mai.
"Origato, Shizuru" answered Mai and hugged her friendly.
"My congratulations to you too, Yukino" facing shyly girl continued Kyoto-beauty.
"Thank you, Kaichou-san"
"Ara, how many times do I have to repeat. I'm not Kaichou anymore, so it will be Shizuru."
"Gome, Shizuru" answered Yukino and also smiled.
"Hello dear, Shizuru" came the male's voice from the crowd "and my congratulations to you too Mai, Yukino…"
"Dear?" asked Natsuki looking for voice owner "It can't be her…"
So, what do you think?
P.S. I uploaded new fic lately, so while you are waiting for next chapter you can check it. But I have to warn you, Shizuru isn't very nice person there...
