Happy Valentine's Day, Anyu. I hope you like. That and your candy you don't get till tomorrow. So enjoy, or die.

Homecoming Queen

Anyu Kay Maylira and Renji Abari

It's been five years since I've seen her face

Anyu walks down the steps, smiling so sweetly. Her sky blue eyes shine radiantly from within the soft dim lighting that casts a shadow on her face. Her arms are crossed over her chest, and she lets them down to wave at me. I feel my face heat up in a blush, only Anyu.

She's the holy ghost lost without a trace
And now were left with the what ifs

"Silly Anyu." Said girl laughs curling her arms around my waist. She squeezes surprisingly strongly for a girl, and she knows it. Seems lugging around her keyboard because she refuses to let anyone else carry it has paid off. Keta and Ichigo give knowing grins, and the boy snuggles closer to his alpha. Keta's good for him, I just hope I'm that kind of good for Anyu. My Anyu.

It's been five years since she left for LA

Keta pats her head and walks off, leaving the silently fuming Anyu. I surprised she didn't threaten to cut off Keta's nose again. It works wonders. Makes said girl run and hide, so she doesn't lose said nose. "Hey Keta! I'm coming for your nose!"

"NO! I'll be nice! Not my nose! Leave my nose alone!" Clever Anyu.

She's an angel with a dirty face

She smirks and turns back to her brother. Darin grins and lifts up the magic marker. After learning the hard way, that Keta will kick you through a wall if you touch her in her sleep, they've desided to draw on Ulquiorra instead. The prince of hell whimpers but doesn't wake even as they drag the green markers down his cheeks.

When the siblings finish, Anyu comes over to hug me. I run a thumb over her cheek to clean it of dust from Keta's earlier wall kick. "I love you, Renji."

And it seems to me
She's a casualty of all the pressure
That we put on her
And now we've lost her for good

She looks out upon the town, eyes half mast and tears prickling at them. I wrap my arms around her waist and bury my nose in her hair. She sighs. "Renji, I don't wanna be here."

"I know, but for the time being, we must. I'll take you away, soon."

"How soon?"

"Soon."

It's such a shame ,shame, shame
That our homecoming queen
Was a lot like you and a lot like me

Anyu leans back in her chair, closing her eyes and attempting to sleep. But it's for naught.

"Anna-chan! Come be Toushiro's twin for Twin Day!" Keta calls down the steps.

"No don't it's a trap! Rangiku help me! Keta's rampaging! Don't let her dye my hair blue!"

The blue head's eyes open wide and she runs out the front door. You never wanna be around Keta during twin day.

And she never walked on water
Guess no one really saw her

The crystal clear lake shimmers in the cold winter light. Her sky blue eyes shine in dark, wide and fearful. If there was one thing that could scare her, it would be what hides in the dark: hollows, snakes and of course…

"Anna-chan!" and a scream.

Keta.

She was so adored by everyone
When it came to looks she was next to none

Ulquiorra bites his thumb, on Renji's side for once. As he said, "the pathetic monkey-human is right for once in his pathetic lifetime."

Toushiro on the other hand has taken Rukia's side, "Anyu's too good for him."

I thought it was funny.

But loved partying and having too much fun
Then she hooked up with the wrong someone
And he promised everything under the sun

"Hey, Anna-chan."

I turn around, my eyes widening, and I take a hesitant step backwards. "J-jack…" He smiles and steps closer. "S-stay aw-way fr-from m-me."

"Why, Anna-chan?"

"Because, I want you away from my girlfriend."

And it seems to me
She's a casualty of all the pressure
That he put on her
And now we've lost her for good

"Anna, what is wrong?" I look up at the vampire, whose face is schooled and expression-less.

"Nothing, Ulquiorra."

He rolls his eyes, wow, that's rare for him. "I do not believe that for a single second. Now, I shall ask you again. What is wrong?"

"I'm just worried."

"About what?"

"Whether or not my parents will be okay with me being a shinigami."

"They will never be okay. You have died, Anna and that is why."

It's such a shame, shame, shame
That our homecoming queen
Was a lot like you and a lot like me
And she never walked on water
Cause no one really saw her

Garra glares down at me, Zarra beside him. "Hey, Aunty Anyu, keep your boyfriend on a tighter leash!"

She peaks around the corner a smile painted upon her lips. "Why?"

"Because, if you don't I might kill him."

She laughs and turns back around, looking more lively then she has in a long while.

It's such a shame, shame, shame
That our homecoming queen
Had a lot to prove and so many to please
She's just somebody's daughter
Just looking for somebody to love her

Red irises gleam from his tattoo marked skin, and he pulls me into his chest, mindful of the fact my family's in the room. "Anyu, oh, Anyu where for art thou, Anyu?"

I look up at him again and cling to him. "Because if I wasn't then I couldn't love you."

"Then it's a good thing you are Anyu."

Well I never knew you
Wish I could've saved you
From losers that drained you
Before you got strung out

With so much potential
How could you let us down

"Ggio, is that Myra?" She points at a girl with bandages covering her chest and half her head.

'Who's Myra?' I think.

"Yeah, that's Myra."

"What happened to her? Why does she still look like she did when she died?"

"Because, the members of Jigoku no kodomo-tachi (the children of hell) always look at least somewhat like they did when they died."

"What about Keta and the others."

"That's why they change. Because they are little demons. And they would kill you in a heartbeat."

"That's comforting."

"Yup."

It's such a shame, shame, shame
That our homecoming queen
Was a lot like you and a lot like me
And she never walked on water
Cause no one really saw her

Anyu glares very Keta-like at her mother. I can almost imagine the fangs peeking out from her lips. Keta smirks in approval before pushing the blue head behind her. The vampiress growls at the cops surrounding us. "You cannot keep Anyu. She belongs with us!"

"And why is that?"

"Because I'm dead! How can you not see that?"

Shame, shame, shame
That our homecoming queen
Had a lot to prove and so many to please
She's just somebody's daughter
Just looking for somebody to love her
She's just somebody's daughter
Just looking for somebody to love her

"Hey Anyu!"

"Yes, Renji?"

He wraps me in his arms, strong and defined. "I love you."

"You better."

"I do."

"Then prove it."

"I will."

It's such a shame, shame, shame...
