(sorry for the delay, life gets busy. like is said i try to write this one while watching the anime and that's not always possible. enjoy))
I'm so tired. The past few hours have taken a huge toll on me. I lost my temper with Mai. Doesn't she know it could have been her! What were those two fighting over anyway.
I lean back and watch the night sky. It'll be morning soon and then I'm getting everyone the hell out of here. Just a few more minutes to rest..I want to burn the memory of that room away. The smell of blood and just the feeling of pain. It settled on my skin like a slimey oil. I want to shower, but it's more important to get out of this place. Urado was only stunned.
I had searched their room for something that would give me the strongest picture of where Miss Hara was..the comb..that damn comb. I take it out of my pocket. It's served it's purpose. My fingers brush the small, white button I'm keeping. When I had been searching I found Mai's pajama button. Right over the area of her heart. It'd held a lot of her energy. That one I'll be keeping. It will allow me to keep a psychic eye on her for some time.
God, I'm so tired, but she's ok. When she ran off I don't think I've ever been so angry..at least not since Gene died. If she'd have died too I don't think I could have gone out. Urado might as well of slit my throat. What the hell was so strong that Lin's shiki couldn't destroy it. That's one hell of a demon. No pun intended.
When we found her my heart almost stopped. She was ok, but not for long. I've seen a lot of things in my eighteen years but the sight of absolute fear on the face of the one you love, it's the worst feeling ever. I might not be able to tell her, but I'll do anything to keep her safe.
That includes carrying my secret. It would put her in too much danger. What if the person who killed Gene went after her to silence me..No I can't risk her.
"That's so cool Lin!" She gasps. Of course, Lin's cool. I feel the smirk rising on my face. I wonder what she'd think of me slamming a 110lb block into the wall. 'Stupid Gene'. I'm here because of him. Then again, I'd have never met her. Maybe it's the one good thing that will come of this. I should fire her, to keep her safe, but I'm too selfsih.
She'd have never been put into danger if I wasn't here undercover to find that fool's body. At least the sun is rising. I'll just leave the comb here and no one will be the wiser. We'll leave and take some time to recover.
"Naru you dropped something." My spine stiffens. Thank you very much master of the obvious. Didn't anyone ever hear of discretion. Here it comes..yup Miss Hara has claimed it. Yup, now she'll try and pursue me even more. Just bloody lovely.
"Why on earth would you be carrying her comb?" the object of my affection grounds out. I try to look her in the eyes but she won't meet mine. She's hurt. She beyond hurt. I make a silent vow that I'll tell her the truth one day. Until then..I'll just do my best to protect her.
