"Oh, wow. Here I was thinking you would need my help!" I exclaimed when I walked into Haruhi's room. She had hair extensions used to give her curled pigtails and wore a blue, white, and pink dress with pink heels. She even had earrings. "I think the twins' maids came in and attacked me this morning," Haruhi grumbled as she looked in the mirror and ran her hand through one of the pigtails. I sat on the bed. After sighing, she wondered, "Are you feeling better?" "I guess," I shrugged. I wasn't really, but at least I wasn't tired anymore. Plus, my color had returned. "That's good. You know, I wish he had asked you instead," she revealed. I cocked my head to the side, "Why?" She explained, "Kaoru is nice, and I really appreciate what he's trying to do, but I guess I don't really like him that way. I think you two would be cuter together." She smiled at me through the mirror. "What?! No! Even if I did like him, I have a promise to keep," I blushed and looked away. "You've never opened up to him like I've seen you do to anyone else before. I've seen the way you look at him. I know you think I'm the oblivious one, but when it comes to love, you're the worst at realizing it. Especially when you're the one in it," she stated. I frowned, "I knew I was once." I felt her sit down next to me, "Is that why you made the promise?" "No! I mean, yes, but… There were a lot of reasons, Haruhi. Even if I did want to be with him, I couldn't. Just being friends with him has made my studying go down, even if my grades aren't suffering. They could, though," I reasoned. Haruhi told me, "Some promises have to be broken, you know. I've gotta go. I'll see you when I get back." I nodded as she stood up. I heard her heels clack out ... ... middle of paper ... ...r things. I don't know if I'm even going to see you at all next year because of that. If you were in my year, you, Hikaru, Haruhi, and I could all be like a happy family. We'd see each other almost every day. I'd get to be with you a lot longer," he explained. How could I possibly tell him there was a chance I wouldn't see him the following year at all? Even before he said that, it was going to be hard. It was impossible then. I couldn't crush him. "What did you want to tell me?" Kaoru asked. I snapped out of my thoughts and racked my brain for some kind of idea of what to say. I smiled, "Just that I'm glad you came to Karuizawa. We've had a lot of fun. I hope it doesn't end after the summer." He laughed, "If I can pry the textbooks out of your hands, then it won't!" I laughed with him, but it was all fake. What have you gotten yourself into now, Azami?
“You felt like you don't even want to try to do anything” “It makes you feel like taking our best friends away from
“I think that he doesn’t deserve you”. He stared back at me with those eyes that will stick with you way after the conversation is over. “Well I wish I just became a movie star with all the money, and the fame,
“Even alone I can’t say I loved Tom,” She admitted in a pitiful voice. “It wouldn’t be true.”
"Ha Ha Ha, you're funny. Do you think I will just go away and not take with me that sword of yours?"
“I love you now- Isn't that enough? I can't help the past.” She began to sob helplessly. “I did love him once- But i loved you too.”
“Well I can’t talk too much right now I have to go to work. Bye son have a goodnight. Lili I’m leaving alright.” He said and left for the mill.
Amy rolled her eyes. ‘I know you don’t understand, Amy. Things have just been hard since for me.’ ‘I know it’s hard but you can’t keep hold your life up for him.
“No, I 'm more excited than anything but its going to be different not being home every night!” I answered.
The first few weeks of that Fall semester were some of the best of my life as we saw each four or five times a week between classes and church, we discovered innumerable commonalities that ranged from being previously home schooled to having the same political views and favorite color. His face showed pure delight when I uttered the words, his eyes lit up and he flashed me one of those incredible smiles, complete with dimples that he used to always give me in the past. But although his face said yes, his mouth said no. He made a dozen excuses that conflicted with each other, ranging from not wanting to date in college to having another girlfriend.
“She asked me if I loved her. I told her it didn’t mean anything but that I didn’t think so. “
“I’m interested in spending more time with you and there are some things I want you to know about me before we go much further.”
He reached into his leather jacket and withdrew his rusty scalpel, stroking it with his finger lovingly. "You see this? If you don't do as I say, you can kiss your little friends goodbye."
"'Never again.' That's what I said to myself. 'I never want to feel your kind of pain again.' Just when I think it's over, just when I think it's through... I find myself back in love with you."
"Hell no!" He recoiled. "i mean, no, thank you. In fact, Brother, i don't think we ought to have such things around!"
