Yoh stood in front of her door way, not sure what to do. His brother had been right, there was a Reflection Spell on the door. His hand still stung from when he tried opening it.

"Anna?" he called. No answer.

"Anna, I know your awake, and I know you can hear me. Please, just let me in…" he said softly. No answer. "Anna-"

"Go away, I don't want to talk." he heard her voice. It sounded like she was leaning against the door.

"Then I'll talk, just let me in," Yoh said, his voice sad.

She didn't let him in, but she did take the spell off the door.

'Well, that's a start,' he thought. He sat down and leaned against it.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked getting straight to the point. As usual, it was sometime before she answered.

"I don't know…I thought I could control it…" he heard her say. This reminded him of when he met her and how he could really talk to her through the door. In fact, they still did that sometimes like now.

"You know, everyone's worried about you. They also noticed that you were acting strange, they care about you, too, you know." Yoh smiled a little.

"No, their worried, but they don't really care." Yoh started, a bit taken back. "They also think that I'm cold hearted, that I don't really care."

Silence came between the two of them. Yoh tried his best to keep his mind blank. Finally after what seemed forever he asked again, "May I come in Anna? Please?"

There was a pause before the door opened a little. He smiled, stood, and went in. but when he got in he felt a pain in his heart.

Anna was sitting on her Futon, hugging her knees to her chest. Tears were still silently falling down her face and she looked like she was in pain.

"Anna…" he went over to her but when he went to hug her she slapped his hand away.

"Don't touch me…" she said. "I only let you in because you wouldn't stop bugging me."

"Anna,-"

"Don't worry," she interrupted. "I can't really read your thoughts. Only when they have a strong feeling to them I can."

He looked at her, a bit shocked, but also hurt. She wouldn't tell him she was in this much pain because she thought he would feel guilty. But now he felt both guilty and upset.

He grabbed her by her shoulders and pulled her against him, hugging her from behind, ignoring her shouts and hits.

"Let me go! I don't want to be touched!" she yelled, hitting him. But he still wouldn't let go. "Let go!"

"I won't," He whispered. "Anna, I need you to open up to me so I can help."

"I don't want any damn help! Your brother already told you that!" she yelled. Her struggles were slowing down but she still tried to get him to let go. But he just held her.

"Anna, stop this. I understand how this hurts you and-"

"Understand?" she said. Her struggles suddenly stopped. "How could you? These thoughts I hear, are worse. Not only are they horrible to hear but they also burn." Tears fell down her face, landing on Yoh's arms that were around her. "How can you understand that pain?"

Yoh felt his heart break. She still doesn't understand. Now that she stopped hitting him and struggling he buried his face in her hair and whispered, "I do understand. Seeing you like this hurts more then getting killed and I know how that feels. I love you Anna, so please, just let me help you."

Anna's eyes widened. She didn't want his help. Something bad will happen if he try's and it would be her fault.

As if he knew something like this was going through her mind he said, "Don't worry, it'll work out somehow. Nii-Chan is finding a way to fix this."

Anna didn't reply. She knew he was trying something but she didn't know nor want to know what it was.

"What Melin said…" Yoh started. She frowned. "It really bothered you, huh?"

Anna sighed and relaxed unconsciously. "Not really. One thing she said was true though."

This time Yoh frowned. "What?"

"You didn't hear it since she thought it. Her thoughts were, 'I bet that's why her parents hated her. That and she's a mind reading freak.'"

Yoh looked down at her but she was looking at the wall. Though she sounded like she didn't care the sadness in her eyes gave her away.

Yoh couldn't help but think that Anna was being to hard on herself. That she shouldn't care what people or her parents thought about her, because in the end she was herself, just Anna being Anna, the person he loved.

"You really believe that, don't you?" she said quietly.

"Huh? I thought you said you couldn't hear my thoughts?" Yoh exclaimed in embarrassment.

"I said I can only hear them if they have a strong feeling to them. Which means you feel strongly about me and what people think about me." A noticeable blush appeared on her cheeks.

Yoh grinned sheepishly. "I do, and I always will. And yes, I do think strongly about that."

She didn't say anything. She just let him hold her, listening to his heartbeat, enjoying the silence that she hasn't had in months.

Soon she feel asleep. Yoh smiled and continued to hold her, also enjoying the silence.

"So she's finally asleep, ne?" Yoh looked up and saw Hao sitting standing by the window.

"Nii-Chan," Yoh said, blushing when he realised he was holding Anna in front of him. He knew that if she woke up or found out about this they would both be dead. "Wha-what are you doing in here?"

"Just checking to make sure she's healing right." he smirked. "And by the looks of it she's doing just fine."

Yoh blushed even more. "It-It took awhile to con-convince her to break the-the spell." he said, showing his hand that was still red.

"Well, at least it's not as strong as her Curse Reflection," Hao took his glove of his left hand, showing heavy burns around it. Yoh's eyes widened as he glanced down at his sleeping Fiancée. "Anyway," his brother went on. "I'm going, I don't feel like getting slapped when she wakes up." He jumped out the window, landing easily on his feet.

'I was right,' he thought. 'He really is the only one who can help her.'

"Hello Ren," Hao turned, smiling at the Chinese boy.

"Where did you go? If your wearing that I assume it was far," Ren said frowning, clearly not in the mood.

"Wouldn't you like to know," Hao smirked. He turned, walking away. "Tell Yoh that I'll be back the day after tomorrow."

Ren frowned, watching him go. He was up to something, he knew that for sure, but he didn't know how it would effect everything that was going on around them.
