Remember Me pt7 She walked for a considerable amount of time, her thoughts racing in anger. The nerve of that guy. How DARE he talk about Treize like that! I should have slapped him as hard as I could! She was interrupted out of her thoughts when she felt herself plow into a someone. �Oh! Pardon me.� She said contritely and started to smile when she froze. Dark piercing eyes stared down at her. Eyes that were puffy from crying. Crying? The chestnut lock of hair that fell forward above the left eye was unmistakable, Treize Khushrenada..... NO! Troy Kasdone. Anne sighed and took a deep breath, then hurriedly began to walk away when she felt a firm pressure on her wrist. �No, Lady.� A quiet voice whispered. A hauntingly familiar voice. She sighed again and suddenly collapsed against him. He looked down at her and smiled slightly, relishing in the tender closeness of her. Suddenly, he pushed her away. She looked up at him in surprise. �No Lady.� He whispered. �You are with another.� �What?� She looked at him, a puzzled expression in her eyes. �I-nothing.� Troy said and he walked away. Dont let him go!� A sudden voice nagged her and she flinched in surprise. �Wait!� She called and hurriedly ran to catch up with his rapidly repeating form. He turned towards her and her heart melted. So like Treize..... Catching up to him she said: �You heard what Andrew and I said didn�t you.� It was more of a statement than a question. He looked at her. Then he looked to the sky as if asking for guidance and slowly nodded his head yes. �Troy, I-I was really stunned and I did not know what I was saying. Please. Please understand and I am sorry and I would like to take you out and show you the neighborhood if you dont mind.� She knew she sounded desperate but that nagging voice would not let her let him out of her sight. �I owe you one.� She said and smiled gently at him in apology. One look at that smile and Treize (he had started thinking of himself as Treize in that moment) knew he could not be angry with her. A smile broke across his face and he nodded slowly. �That sounds good....Lady.� He smiled wider, loving how she blushed at the remark, but his heart broke at the pained look in her eyes. I really should tell her.....he thought, but he did not think that now was the right time. She beamed at him and said: �Where do you want to start?� He started. �You want to show me now?� He was surprised. �Yes. I do not have anything planned.� �Andrew?� He asked, almost fearing the answer. �We had an argument. That was why I ran into you. I was preoccupied...� She blushed. Treize frowned. He really did not like the thought of Andrew within ten feet of Une. �Well Lady, there is no use for our evening out to be a sad one so show me this beautiful neighbourhood and tell me a little more about yourself, and if you don�t mind my asking of this very lucky man Treize Khushrenada?� He looked hopefully at her. Coming from this man, and the gentle almost fond way he brought up Treize made her smile. She laughed then, genuinely laughed for the first time in what seemed like forever, much to the astonishment of the man standing beside her. |
