Baka-moy Glad to hear that my bodyguard is here with me :)

firecaster-hikaru That's true, that is why somewhere in the begining Mai said that some things seems familiar to her too. But still no one was so close to Natsuki as Shizuru, so I think it is normal that only Shizuru is able to see or hear Natsuki ;)

If I'm right then... HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHIZURU!!! Tease Natsuki more often ;)

DISCLAIMER: And as always I don't own HiME/Otome TT But I'm still dreaming about it XD

Chapter 10

Dream world

… She was transparent…

I blinked not believing my eyes. I looked at her with surprise not knowing what to think or do about it, then… Reito started to circle once more and I lost her sigh. When we stopped and started to move in place, my eyes started to ran from one face to another, trying to find these green orbs which made my heart beat faster. But no sign of them was seen. The ghost like form disappeared as suddenly as it appeared 'Was it my imagination? No it can't be…Imagination couldn't make me feel like this…sad and happy at the same time…'

"Shizuru, is something wrong?" asked Reito in a concerned voice.

I raised my head and looked into his deep purple eyes. Eyes full with love and worry looked into mine, searching for answer… My heart skipped a beat…

"I'm fine…" I lied, I had felt so confused. My heart has never beaten so fast before 'What is going on with me?'

"You're lying…" my eyes looked into his once more, my mask crashed and sadness was seen on my face "What happened, Shizuru? Did I do something wrong?"

His gentle and loving voice made me feel even worse "No, it's not you… I just feel not very well… Maybe it's because of all this circling?"

"Do you want us to stop?"

"No, let's finish our dance"

"Are you sure?"

"Yes… "

"If you will feel worse tell me" he whispered into my ear, making me stop breathing.

"I will…"

And so we continued our dance, although I didn't enjoy it so much antmore. It seems that my entire good mood just disappeared 'I need to talk with my angel. Was it her right now? If yes then why was she sad? Didn't she say she is happy for me? What happened? And what is more important… why did I see her?' While I was lost in thoughts, music stopped and loud applauses were heard. I took step back from Reito, releasing him from my grip and with apologetic eyes looked at him.

"Will you excuse me? I don't feel well… I need some fresh air…"

"Do you want me to make you company?"

"No, I'm fine. Don't worry… I'll be back soon" smile appeared on my face and Reito's tensed body relaxed a bit.

"If you will need help, call me"

"Thank you, Reito" I gave him sweet kiss on cheek before going outside the mansion.

Reito had very beautiful garden in front of the house, so I went there and sit down on the bench, underneath one of the cherry trees. I looked around, making sure I was alone. Taking some air in, I spoke.

"Are you here, Natsuki?" but no answer came.

'Where is she? Isn't she supposed to be always by my side? Wait! Here there are no objects that she could move! Think Fujino! How else can I get answer from her?' before I had some ideas I heard how branches of the tree above me started to shake 'Wind? There is no wind… Could it be?'

"Ara, has my angel climbed on the tree?" as an answer branches shook once more "Smart girl" I smiled "But be careful and don't fall or you will break something" 'Ara? Break something? She can't break anything! She doesn't have body!' "Ara, forgive me. I forgot that you don't have body, will you forgive me?" yes, she did forgive me and my smile grew wider, but soon it faded when I remembered why I really called her "Natsuki, I have some questions… Hope you will be able to answer" another shake of branches "Good, ok from where I should start… Natsuki, do you have long hair?" positive answer "And green eyes?" this time it took some time before answer came 'Is she nervous?' "You know, I think I just saw you… While dancing I saw beautiful girl's face with long, blue hair and deep green eyes. And what caught my attention more was that she was transparent… What means it couldn't be a human and if your answers are true then it really was you. Do you know how it happened? Why I was able to see you?" I waited but no answer came "Have you realized that it had happened?" again no answer "Maybe it really was my imagination, after all no one else has seen you… Sorry for bothering you, it really has to be my imagination. I think I should go back, after all Reito is worried. Will you excuse me?" answer didn't come at once, but I didn't have to wait for too long "Thank you, I hope you will come with me too" smiling I stood up and went back to the mansion.

PVC Shizuru ends

I sat on the tree watching Shizuru walked back to the mansion. She asked me to come with her, but I couldn't make myself to do it. Shock was still inside of me making me scared and nervous. Hundred of questions ran through my head, but no answer was found 'She saw me… How did it happen? It wasn't her imagination, it really was me there among the crowd…But why others didn't see me then? What is going on here? Did I…did I go too far? I need help…But whom? Who can help me? Jack…Yes, he is the one who can give me advice. But his advice will be stay away from her…No, I have to find out what is going on here!' Stopping my train of thoughts, I jumped on the ground and looked around. Although no one could see me, but after incident with Shizuru I had to be careful.

"Jack!" I shouted and once more he appeared in front of me, sending bright light in different directions. It still surprised me that every time I called, he was able to come.

"Natsuki! What are you doing?" were his first words which made me confused.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't make fool of yourself! You know what I'm talking about!" I looked at him with raised eyebrows "I'm talking about Shizuru and your communication with her!"

Hearing it, I jumped on him closing his mouth "Quiet you! I don't want God to hear us!"

He pushed my hands away "You should think about it earlier! He already knows!"

"What?" shock was evident on my face when I heard it "But… why doesn't He say anything?"

"You know He is busy, you are not alone in this huge world… But now I have a chance to warn you. Stop it; stop it before it isn't too late!"

"Maybe it is late" I looked to the side.

"What?" now it was his time to be surprised "Did she…did she remember you?"

"No" I looked at him again "But it seems she saw me…"

"Saw you?"

"Yes, some moments ago… she said she saw transparent blue-haired girl, with green eyes among the crowd. What means she saw me, but I can't get it… why? Why no one else could see me?"

"So it's happening… Your powers are increasing, Natsuki… But I don't know why. It has never happened before. Maybe your bond with Shizuru is too big that even God's powers can't control it. I wonder why He still allows you to be her angel after all that happened. You have to stop communication with her now!"

"But I can't just stop talking to her! I mean answering in the way we used to… I need to warn her"

"Hmm… there is a chance. You can enter her dream"

"Dream? But won't it be more dangerous?"

"No, dreams are the safest place for communication. After all we, angels, enter human dreams sometimes when we want to warn or comfort them"

"If it safest way, maybe I could always enter her dreams?"

"I said we enter them when it is necessary, if we will do it all the time, people won't be able to do something by themselves and also we close themselves to another people. All we do have to be done after thinking what kind of consequences can happen. Dreams are safe when you use them when it is necessary. What means you can do it, but only once"

I sighed when my hope to communicate with Shizuru was fully destroyed "How can I do it?"

"Simple. When she falls asleep, come to her side or lie down near her. Then put one hand on her head, close your eyes and concentrate. It isn't hard so you will be able to do it. And don't forget… as soon as you enter her dream world, you are the one who is controlling it. Everything that you want will appear, but be careful with your wishes. And of course she will see and hear you"

"Are you sure it is safe?"

"Yes"

"If you say so…"

"Remember, no communication after that! Do you understand me?"

"Yes…But, if she will see me again?" I answered lowering my head.

"If you will stop communicating with her, your powers have to become weaker. Hope we understand each other? I don't want you to have problems later"

"I understand, thank you for caring about me"

"Well, after all I'm the one who took you to this world…" with those words he disappeared.

'Well, at least she will be safe…I don't want her to remember…' sighing for another time, I went to the Reito's mansion to see what is happening. I didn't bother by going to the door so I just went through the wall. I looked around and saw Shizuru's beautiful, smiling face who was enjoying her evening with Reito and others 'Good that her mood has returned, now I need to hide…Don't want any others incidents to happen tonight' I bent down a little trying to hide among dancing crowd. Soon I reached Shizuru and stood behind her. Every time she turned, I followed her trying all my best not to be in her sight.

The evening past and soon everybody were starting to go home. But before that a lot of things have happened. In the end of the evening a drunk, tied up Midori was found swinging from tree. Haruka started to investigate, looking for one who did it. The first suspected was Nao who only smirked saying she doesn't know how it happened, but my bets were her. After all she is master in tying up.

I'm sure Reito's cooks had the best day ever. Don't know how she did it, but Mikoto ate almost everything that could be found on tables. I hope she won't be sick or Mai will have long night or better say morning today, because it was four o'clock when everybody started to go home.

In one word everybody had a lot of fun today and what was even more pleasant that Shizuru wasn't sad anymore. It seems that she really had one of the best days today. Whole evening she spent dancing and just enjoying Reito's company. Of course they were interrupted several times, by some businessman/woman talking about economy stuff or some other stupid things. And of course by fan girls who didn't shut up even for a minute asking them random questions as 'Are you happy together?' 'Where are you gonna go on your honeymoon?' 'Where are you gonna live after marriage?' 'How many children would you like to have?' and so on till no end. I thought I would punch them all but for my great pleasure big minds always find the way out. Don't know how but Shizuru and Reito managed to get rid of them and they were as happy as before leaving. But… there always were found some people who just didn't let go. All different kind of businesspeople attacked with hundred of questions but before giving any answers, Reito spoke to Shizuru why no one listened.

"Better go home, dear. I will deal with them"

"But I want to be here with you"

"You need a rest. Don't want you to get tired because of these non shutting mouths. So go home. My driver will take you and I promise to visit you in the morning"

"Promise?"

"Yes"

"Then I'll be waiting"

Sharing last kiss for the night, Shizuru went to the limousine while Reito back to businesspeople. All Shizuru's expression told that she wasn't happy with events like these. She sat in the limousine, staring through window at night city. I sat there with not better expression. The things and words which were made and said today once more appeared in my memory. Remembering what I had to do, made me shake a little 'I have to…It's better for us…for her…'

After trip which took some minutes, but looked like ages, we were finally near Shizuru's mansion. Saying goodbye to driver, she entered the house. No one greeted us, because of the late hour but it didn't disappoint us. We went to her bedroom, where she got changed and took a shower. I didn't blush this time. Thoughts about what has to be done made it impossible to think about anything else. After nice shower, Shizuru exited the bathroom and sat on her bed. Small smile found its place on her beautiful, porcelain face.

"Natsuki, are you here?" As an answer I moved alarm clock on her night stand 'It is my last communication with you, Shizuru' "Good, you know it was one of my best days today. Sad that I couldn't spend rest of it with Reito. I will have to punish all these people for ruining my evening" she laughed gaining weak smile from me "I'm happy that you were with me today. It was really important for me. Hope you will be by my side during the wedding too" 'Shizuru, you make things worse now…How can I say that I can't communicate with you anymore?' "Well it is time to go to bed, but first of all…"

With those words she stood up and took her hairdryer. I sat on her bed appreciating her beautiful body and hair. The wet hair looked very nice on her, making her look like mermaid which just jumped out from the water, blessing world with her appearance and beauty. When Shizuru finished, she changed into pyjama and saying "Good night, my angel" in sweet voice passed to the dream world.

I sat there waiting for some time while she will fully fell asleep. Making sure that she was sleeping I stood from the edge of the bed and went closer to her. My green orbs ran along her body, admiring every part of it. Then my gaze stooped upon her face which peacefully slept, shining in the moonlight.

"Shizuru…" I breathed placing my hand upon her cheek.

With smile I carefully caressed it and Shizuru's lips formed a warm smile making me freeze and feel even worse 'It has to be done…' with those words, I closed my eyes and concentrated on the contact which I made. Some time passed before I started to drift asleep too.

PVC Shizuru

'Dark…why is it dark here? Where am I? What's going on?' hundred of questions ran through my head, when I found myself surrounded by blackness. Nothing could be seen in this dark place, I couldn't even see my own hands. Panic started to form inside of me, making me nervous. Suddenly a light appeared and not waiting too long I moved towards it, hoping to find better and brighter place. A place which wouldn't make me nervous, but then I saw her… The light started to fade and young woman came out of it, smiling at me. Although the light had disappeared, I still could see her. It wasn't dark anymore, but blackness still surrounded us.

"Who are you? And where am I?" I asked.

"Don't you recognize me?" she answered, still going closer to me.

"Have we met?"

"Didn't you say that you have seen a ghost form somewhere in the crowd while dancing with Reito?"

"But it wasn't real…"

"It was… I'm your angel Shizuru, I'm Natsuki"

I looked at the girl in front of me and then I saw it. The same deep green eyes, which made me freeze and dark blue hair, which made her look paler then she really was. But she wasn't transparent…

"Natsuki… but how is it possible?"

"I have entered your dream, because I need to tell you something…"

"So it is a dream?"

"Yes…"

Then it hit me… she was talking!

"Wait?! You can talk?!"

"Just now…"

Her voice was deep and full with emotions which I couldn't figure out at the moment "You have very beautiful voice. Maybe you could enter my dreams more often, so I could enjoy it frequently and of course I would like to see your stunning face too" I smiled and then I saw a blush forming on girls face 'Cute…'

"I'm not cute"

"Huh?"

"I'm in your dream… so I can read your mind"

"Ara, not fair! I want to know what my angel is thinking too!"

"I'm thinking that you are beautiful… sad I can't say it all the time to you" the most beautiful smile I have ever seen appeared on her face.

Don't know why, but her comment and that smile…It made my heart to beatt faster. Suddenly I felt my cheeks becoming warm… a light blush appeared on my face making me even more confused 'What is going on? Why am I blushing? What is this feeling inside of me?' It seems she heard my thoughts again and it made her somehow nervous…

"So what was it that you wanted to tell me?" I asked trying to keep my normal voice, although it was almost impossible. It just wanted to start to shake!

"Not now… At the moment…" suddenly a music started to play from nowhere and what surprised me even more was that it was the same that I used to sing to myself sometimes "Is it possible for me to have my last dance with you?" asked innocent voice and pleading green orbs stared straight intp mine ruby ones. My heart froze and my voice finally betrayed my nervousness.

"S-sure, but why the last? I-isn't it o-our first dance?"

But she didn't answer me; her smile just grew wider making me hold my breath. She came nearer and took my hands into hers. They were cold, but not freezing. Holding my hands she backed a little and in the next moment spotlight was shining upon us. She put my hand on her shoulder and then moved her one to my waist, making me shiver but not because of disgust or coldness… Because of the feelings which passed through me. Joy, sadness, happiness… Almost every feeling that is possible went through me, making me even more confused. Some of the feelings weren't even familiar to me, but they felt so right…

Slowly our bodies started to move in a slow dance. We circled, looking straight into each others eyes not able to break eye contact. Something in these eyes just made me feel different, more alife maybe… Soon our speed increased making our bodies move faster, but not taking eyes away from each other even for second. We danced like this for some a time, before music started to fade to the end and so our pace slowed down. Suddenly she pushed me closer to her, hugging and holding me tight like if I she would let me go, I would disappear. A cold breath reached my ear when she whispered into it in her nice, husky voice.

"Shizuru, I'm sorry…"

"For what?" her words didn't make any scenes and it made me worried.

"I'm very sorry, but… we won't be able to communicate anymore…"

"Why?"

"It's for your sake… but I won't leave you… I will always be by your side…"

"For my sake? But what is wrong for you to communicate with me?"

"Can't answer you, but please don't try to make me answer you or communicate with you. I won't… The only reason why I entered your dream today, was to warn you. Now it's time for me to say goodbye…"

Her grip loosened and her body started to move away from me. I instantly missed the contact… I reached my arms to catch her, to hold her, to make her stay. I started to run, but couldn't catch my angel. I shouted her name hoping that she will stop and stay, but still nothing 'Why is it so important for me to communicate with her? Why do I miss our body contact? What kind of feelings were these? I never felt like these before, even Reito never made me feel so… warm… Who are you Natsuki? Are you only my angel or something more? I don't care! I want you to stay, to talk to me, to comfort me, to help me... I…'

"NATSUKI!" I shouted jumping out from my bed.
