" The new kid" part 14




Hey y'all! Here's part 14. I hope you all like it.

Disclaimer: I don't own Escaflowne but I do own Jack Roberts

   When we last left Hitomi, she was having a passionate kiss with 
Van, the new kid in school.

   Something didn't seem right about this kiss. Hitomi was smacked 
back to the here and now and slowly pulled away from Van.

   " Hitomi?" Van questioned her.

   Hitomi was looking down at the floor." I'm sorry Van. This just 
doesn't feel right." With that she turned around and went running 
off. She wanted to be as far away from Van as humanly possible.

   " Hitomi!" Van yelled after her. He just didn't understand what 
had gone wrong. He finally had Hitomi in his arms, in the most 
romantic kiss he had ever had. And yet, she ran off, just like that. 
Van was very confused. Perhaps he had gone to fast with confessing 
his true feelings towards her? He didn't know. Van ran after Hitomi 
to ask her what had gone wrong.

   Hitomi on the other hand, kept running. But running from who? 
Running from what? The kiss seemed so perfect one moment, then wrong 
the next. Maybe it was just that everything had been happening so 
fast. She had not expected Van to just tell her that he loved her and 
then kiss her as though they were already going out. Hitomi wiped at 
the angry tears that stinged her eyes.

   " Hitomi!" she heard some yell. Hitomi stopped in her tracks and 
saw Van running after her. She didn't continue to run.

   " Hitomi, what happened?" Van asked as he reached her.

   Hitomi didn't even look at him." I'm sorry Van. Everything was 
just going so fast."

   " That's my fault. I shouldn't have been to quick to tell you how 
I felt about you."

   Hitomi looked up at him and smiled." No, it's okay. I'm actually 
glad that you did. I was really hurt about what happened with Jack 
and you made me forget all about it."

   " That's another thing that made me tell you. I was so jealous to 
see you with him that I had to tell you before you ended up falling 
in love with that Jack Roberts."

   Hitomi walked over to Van and hugged him." Thank you for loving me 
Van. It WAS a shock but I'm actually glad it was you. You're a much 
better guy than that Jack anyway."

   " Hitomi......" Van whispered as he bent down and kissed Hitomi. 
This time, the kiss was only right. Nothing was wrong with it.

   Once they stopped to take a breather, Hitomi found herself saying 
something that shocked even her." I love you Van."

   Van stared wide-eyed at Hitomi, then smiled." I love you too 
Hitomi." 

   They smiled at each other and hand-in-hand, Van walked Hitomi 
home.


There's part 14. Too mushy huh? I'm not sure if I should stop there 
and say " Okay, they're together, that's the end." or if I should 
keep going and have some stuff happen to them to make their love like 
a soap opera. You tell me. I'd love to hear from you. Comment on this 
chapter and tell me if I should continue it. Maybe I should to show 
everyone the shocked faces on Yuakri and Jack. Well, tell me and I'll 
take those comments and decide if I should. Bye!
