Okay so this is a special chapter! ...or if you can even call it that. Since it's still connected to the story, just a different point of view. XD

Ha! I like Jellal Fernandez and Erza Scarlet from Fairy tail and I just can't heeelp but feel that Elesis and Ronan resemble them... or EleNan reminds me of JerZa. Either way is fine ~

I can't believe I'm actually enjoying writing these A/N stuff... Let's go anyway! XD

Three,

Two,

One!

Chronicles of the Black Blood

Elesis' POV

I slept the whole day that Friday. When I woke up, it was sunset and there were voices at the corridors, loud, but not enough to be classified as annoying.

Good thing that stupid fighter or that stupid doggy didn't woke me up today. It's the least thing I wanted to happen after I came home from a stupid mission.

So I got up and took a stupid shower. Then, put on the usual cloth I wear, the red knight overall (I seriously don't know why I wear a basic armor piece at home).

And went out the damn hallways only the stupid doggy bumping against my back that sent me tumbling down.

The culprit continued to run though, "Sorry Elesis!"

I stood up and clenched my fist, that fujjing! I yelled colorful languages at him and growled.

"Get out of the wayy!" I heard from behind. I didn't got the chance to look back. Jin also bumped against me as he was riding a form of vehicle.

"Damn you!" I cried after regaining my composure. "DAMN YOU BOTH! DAMN YOU ALL!" I, again, awesomely went berserk and hunt the two's head down.

Dinner was served when I finished beating the two to pulp.

There, I saw everyone present, (except Ryan and Jin) already eating.

It angered me.

"None of you called me!" I told them, letting out an irritated growl.

"Oh, sorry Elesis, you were 'busy' the last time I checked to I just didn't called you." Lire smiled at me, motioning me to sit down. She was still wearing the school uniform, along with Lass, Arme and R-Ronan. Damn, I even stammer when I say his name in thoughts?

R-Ronan! Ronan! Ronan! Ronan! Ronan! There. Fixed. Ronan.

"I know how you feel! None called me either." to the of the table, the conceited bastard said, faking a pout.

"I wasn't talking to you, dipshit." I told him with a glare.

"Well I wasn't talking to you either, I was talking to Lire, right, Lire?" Seighart asked with a smirk, "And you don't talk to your brother like that."

I turned to Lire, "Really?"

Lire was smiling then forced a nod!

"See?" Seighart snickered.

"I don't care!" I honestly told him and began to dug down the food I placed on my plate.

I ate so much that I didn't knew how many twos or threes I had. Well, finally I was done.

I realized Lire was already taking care of the dishes with Arme trying to help, ending up that she broke two plates. I laughed at her, she glared back.

Ronan came back inside the kitchen with a plate full of chocolate cake.

My eyes narrowed as I started to search for a fork.

Arme was staring in return as we charged towards the cake.

But before we moved an icing, we were glancing at each other...

...and decided to make a truce during cakey time.

xx

After that, I hurriedly ran to my room. Not noticing others who tried to call me or inform me to do my homework.

I panted in front of the door, opened it, then clicked it to lock.

I leaned at the door and tears brimmed my eyes.

All they knew is that Elesis is fierce and strong. She doesn't give up and always fight back.

But like them, Elesis have secrets too.

I walked towards my bed, things scattered around my room for facade. Then I let myself fall down to my comforter and hug my pillows.

Despite the cool attitude Elesis show others, lies a deceitful one.

Being like this isn't enough. I envy Lire.

Lire is always around Ronan. They really get along.

I can do that too. I can also be nice. But I can't because of the fierce attitude I have to plaster.

I wanted to be Amy because she's beautiful and talented. She can also do close combat, like me, only better. She has a beautiful voice and many likes her.

I want Ronan to like me.

I wanted to be Mari because Ronan's interested in her. She has an awesome pair of eyes - Blue and Red.

Ronan & I.

And lastly... I wanted to be Arme.

Because Ronan likes her.

The moment I let out a sob was the moment I jerked up and ran to my Bath room.

I walked on dry red tiles and sat before the toilet bowl.

This was when I opened my mouth and plunged two fingers.

More tears streamed down my face as I felt vomiting...

... and I did.

I wasted my dinner for that night. Like I always do.

Nutrition? Who cares about that damn if you wanted to be perfect?

No one right?

But... what if someone sees me like this?

No one. No one would care.

I broke another sob as I unexpectedly swallowed the soury left over.

I know, one day, I will be perfect and Ronan will notice me.

xx

The next day came and Amy's voice woke me up.

I grumbled then sat, wondering what they were up to in such early in the morning.

I took a bath and wore a similar cloth from yesterday.

Then, without fixing my hair, I walked out of the room.

"What do you mean you don't want to come!" it was a statement not a question.

Arme was standing before her, still wearing uniform.

"Please, Amy." Arme bowed, biting her lower lip in attempts to escape the pink dinosaur's grasp. "Maybe next week, I have to take care of our group project!"

"You can make Lass do it!" Amy shouted in return.

"Pleaaasee..." Arme sighed, tears beginning to form in her eyes.

"That can be... OHH~" I raised a brow at them as Lire approached me.

"Morning." I greeted.

"Good morning, Elesis." the elf replied.

"What's with that two?" I asked.

"Well, you know, Amy wanted to costumized Arme's room."

I stared at the blonde, "And what about Arme's room?"

"I dunno, it has mixed colours?" Lire smiled sheepishly, "Well, you know what I mean, like what she did to everyone's room."

Oh. Costumized color patterns.

Lass... and R-Ronan entered the room, both rubbing their heads.

"What the hell is up this early in the morning!" Lass scowled.

"Well, well!" Amy began to fake a sob. Go actress. "Nah!" she stopped the mood and smiled, "Arme wants to spend a quality time making project with you! I guess that'll slip for today! We're going to the mall next week no one should decline." the girl skipped out of the room. I saw Arme and Lass avoid each other's glance with tints of pink beginning to form in their faces.

I laughed. Hard.

"You're over doing it." Lass told me before turning around to go to the kitchen.

"Yeah," Arme sighed then headed to another room.

I followed Lass and figured breakfast was ready!

xx

A week passed and school projects were given.

I partnered up with Ronan. It makes me feel tingly inside every time I think of the thought. I didn't even cared which partnered up with Lire or Jin,

All that mattered that we made project together in the library, alone, but... well not really since every second someone passes by to get a book, or a picture, or something...

I don't care about that though!

Right now, I was on my way back to my room doing the... usual.

I let out a sigh as a sad face plastered up my face,

And not rarely enough, I felt vomiting at the stairs so in order to not-the-bloody-vomit-first-time-we-met-Arme happen again, (it's a long name for a situation, really) I had to ran really fast..

"Elesis!"

Not caring about anything, I slammed the door shut and opened the door to my bathroom. I leaned before the toilet bowl and triggered myself to puke everything I had that very night. I cried during the process...

...and every negative feeling came back to me.

I sobbed but managed to say, "...I wish... I was perfect."

"Elesis..."

That voice. I cringed.

It's so funny how deep in misery I am and he still finds his way into my thoughts.

"But you are perfect!"

My eyes widened.

But... how?

"When did you..."

"I'm sorry I trespassed into your room but you are perfect Elesis."

I twisted and saw him there, by the bathroom door, staring at me with pitiful eyes.

I shook my head and gulped. I, again tasted the sour flavor. Letting few tears trickle down my face I told him,

"You're lying."

He knelt before me, and stared at me at my eye level. "I'm not."

"You are." I bit my lower lip, "You're saying that because you pity me. How does it feel to know another weakness of mine!"

Instead of scowling at me, he pulled me into a warm hug.

This just made me feel worst.

"Don't pretend, please!" I told him. It hurts so much how your first love tells you you're perfect only because he pities you.

But he remained stubborn and continued to lie.

"I told you, I am not. I don't lie."

What...?

"You're beautiful, you're awesome, fierce, straight forward-"

"That's not me." I told him, "It's a facade."

"Facade is a part of you either. Facade is something you keep in order for you not to get hurt. I don't know the reason, nor you have to tell me if you want to but I accept you, whoever you think you are."

Such beautiful lies...

His grip around me tightens as I broke into another sob.

"It's you. You're the reason of everything." I told him.

But he seemed to ignore me, "Don't care of what others think of you, Elesis. Because if they think you're stupid, arrogant and an ignorant, they are all wrong. Because you are perfect."

I trembled at the sound.

I wanted to tell him, that if he continue to tell these things to me, I might tell him that-

"In my eyes you are perfect. I like so much, red knight."

He... what?

"I wanted to tell you that a long time ago."

This is surely a lie.

"I fell in love with you ever since I saw you back at Kanavan Castle, ten years ago. You were practicing swordsmanship together with Seighart trained by your father. I watched you every time you practice by the river. I didn't know your name back then so I had to be very careful. Knowing swordsman has good senses."

Count me out at that part.

"Remember the time in irritation you threw your sword in the bushes? I got hit." he let out a chuckle, "And then one day I heard your father disappeared. The next day your brother also. So you set on a journey by yourself. I saw you walk away but never had the chance to speak. You didn't know me and during that time I had my own business to mind. Being the next Royal Guard Master."

These things had shaken my belief.

So he saw me grow up? And we never had a chance to talk before?

"When I saw you again, I quickly remembered falling in love for the first time. And every time we meet."

I let out another sob and hugged him back, "I also like you. So much more than you can ever imagine."

Ronan chuckled. "So you won't do that again and you'll go back to the sweet and cuddly girl you used to be?"

We broke the hug and I smacked his head for that. "Well, only if you kiss me." I smiled sheepishly.

"Deal." He smiled at me and leaned closer.

I pushed him and stood up, "In your damn dreams!" I cried with a smile, wiping the tears away.

So you see, girls, I just figured out. You don't have to change for the person you love to like you. Someone will come along and appreciate you just the way you are.

On that certain day, we got together.

I hope I didn't made Elesis too OOC. T^T

Since, well, you know... All girls are actually fluffy too even if some tend to act strong... they also need comfort! =D

Now on to the next chapter!
