" The new kid" part 15




Hi!Here's part 15 out by popular demand. Thanx to all those people who 
literally begged me to post it up. Enjoy!

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

   After Hitomi's heart was broken when she caught Jack kissing 
another girl, Van was there to confort her (well, not really).

   Van had taken Hitomi home where they kissed and said their good 
nights.

   " Thank you for being there for me Van. I really apprecaitae it."

   Van smiled." No problem. Do you actually think that I would leave 
you in that state?"

   Now it was Hitomi's turn to smile. She reached up and gave Van a 
kiss." Good night." 

  " Good night, my princess."

   Hitomi lightly giggled and walked inside her house, closing the 
door behind her.

**************************************

   The next day, Yukari went to Hitomi's house to check on her. Yuakri 
was really worried about Hitomi because of what happened yesterday 
with Jack.

   Once Hitomi came out, Yukari saw the huge smile on Hitomi's face.

   " Why are you so cheery this morning? I would have thought that 
after what happened with Jack you would have come to school all 
moody."

   " Guess what?"

   " What?"

   Hitomi slightly giggled and waited a while before answering." After 
I ran away from the mall I literally bumped into Van. You'll never 
guess what happened between us."

   Yukari went wide-eyed." What happened?"

   Again Hitomi waited." Van told me he loved me and then he kissed 
me."

   Yukari gasped. She couldn't believe that the hunk she dreamt would 
tell her he loved her, actually turned out to be in love with her best 
friend.

   " I can't believe this!" Yukari yelled in a loud tone. She hadn't 
meant to be so loud. She wanted to respond by telling Hitomi that she 
was glad and that she hoped she would be happy with Van. But that's 
not the way it came out.

   " What's up with you?" Hitomi asked. She could tell something was 
bothering Yukari. She didn't usually scream stuff out like that.

   ' No use in trying to hide it out now' Yukari thought. She stopped 
walking and just stood there. Hitomi stopped as well." You want to 
know what's bothering me Hitomi?! Well I'll tell you."

   Hitomi saw the tears in Yukari's eyes.

   " My problem is that you're with the guy I've dreamt of being 
with!"

   Hitomi gasped. She hadn't expected this. She expected something a 
little less shocking." Y-you like Van?"

   " No, I don't like Van, I love Van!"

   Hitomi gasped again, only louder. Yuakri ran off crying.

There it is. I'll have part 16 out later. Please review. Bye!
