A white light flashed before the female’s eyes, staying completely
calm from entering a room. The curtains were a teal color mixed with green. Ocean
blue eyes looked forward, lips parted just slightly before her long white dress
blew in the wind. The window opened a crack, when her eyes scanned the area
around her. Where was this room? An attic? Confusion was shown from her
expression about where seeing a shadow stand beside the bed. Had it been her
bed?
“Welcome back, Hana.”
The soothing voice came echoing in her ears, whispering the
voice within her mind over and, over again. Raising a hand, fingertips lowered
a bit in wait for the female to come over and hold it. This memory seemed
familiar almost like a calling to her. One foot raised, suddenly her whole body
froze with thinking if going to him. His face partially had shown while the
other had showed his lips. He smiled at her with a kind expression. His hand
still held out when calling for her. “Come.”
The fear brought her body with a numb feeling through her
nerves. Pushing on the carpet, the petite body moved across the room. Each of
her two feet pushed from the carpet, feeling the soft carpet rest underneath
her foot. Inches away from each other; the movement from her dress moved along
with the wind. One slender arm reached out, her fingers lightly traced against
the palm of his hand. When touched his movement from the other arm had wrapped
around her waist. Pulling her close with a gentle movement, he had whispered
into her ear. “Will you be by my side, Hana?”
Hana mind had been filled with questions of where she was
and why she was chosen. His gentle care for her body was almost too careful. Why
did she feel so cautious? Be by someone side…it was something she never thought
he would stay here with her. She already had problems herself and many had
dreamed of being in this place. Lips opened up slowly, her fingers held onto
his hand tightly when seeing his eyes had teal inside of them. Those eyes were
piercing her blue ones completely. The moon’s light touched their skins making
his shine so beautifully.
“Hana, are you afraid to answer? I will not hurt you like
all the others have. I have seen how harmful it was.”
Deep inside her heart she knew he had seen it. He always had
been concerned since she cried for him. He was taken by many of the females who
called him a pimp. Many had dreamed of becoming his soul mate for years. All of
them been deceived. “No, I am not afraid. Being hurt again and, again is
something I do not want to fall into. I heard about you and your womanizing. It
is clear that every woman gets deceived by you.” Her lips quivered; speaking
out like this would get her only liked even more.
“Hana…”
His arm tightened on her back; his lips lowered onto her
neck when she felt something pierce into her right neck. His eyes looked her in
the eyes, seeing the same emotion he seen on females for a long time knowing
the truth. His truth was-----he had a dark secret from within. Something ran
down her neck, falling down onto the ground with her voice echoing in the room.
Only suddenly she felt relaxed if to die within his arms right now. He looked
like someone from fantasy you seen. It couldn’t be real, it couldn’t be true.
Why did he pick me…? Those questions were surrounding her mind when her picture
gone black.
Hair stood up on her forehead; lips opened wide with
something falling down her lips. It was her own saliva. “NOOOOO!” The young
blonde had kicked off her blankets, feet touched the ground when running out of
the room. Arms rose up and down, moving quickly with her golden hair following
behind. “Something must have gone wrong with Miss Hana.” One maid spoke to the
other; their lips showed a smile when knowing this girl had a history with
their family since a child. Always she had been a strange female who came to
the Queen. Or they respect her like a Queen with loving everyone even if not
blood related. Hana Haku had not always been in this family since she was an
infant. The small child had been left alone with no parents around. They had
welcomed her into the family with the same age as their son Hitsugaya Toshiro.
“Sheila, it happened again. I saw a dream about vampires.”
The young girl voice traveled in the room when the white haired female stood
tall. “My dear…you poor thing.” Her two
arms reached out, waving her fingers just a bit in signaling Hana to come
closer. “We shall fix that, my dear.”
Each time the dreams gotten worse from that same person who
told her to come over and she did. Why had it been him? The medicine Sheila had
brought always erased what was seen in her eyes. Anything that happens would be
Sheila magic to remove anything that wasn’t necessary.
“Sweetie, if anything happens more you can excuse yourself
from the class. Your new uniform has come in today!” Sheila two hands clapped
together, making her hands reach in the closet for the new clothing. “You
should try it on.” Both of her eyes
filled with joy; like a small child given a basket of candy over treat-o-treating.
Hana saw Sheila was more excited with her joining the academy today along with
her son. He was the top of the class with full attention during his summer camp
at soccer. Hearing stories from the females who came in to live in the dorms.
Only problem was her secret be out if she announces she lives in the house of
the Hitsugaya’s. It could cause a riot so they planned for Toshiro to be her
guide and guardian.
Sheila…these human
girls and males are vicious of her own kind. They would do anything to be in
this house and be near him and the family.
Taking Sheila’s advice she left the room quickly down the
long corridor hall. Both of her feet hit the ground, each step became soft when
she spotted something. Up ahead her eyes looked shocked; blue orbs noticed the
male who stopped with his eyes piercing hers. Why did he stop? Did she do
something to upset him or…?
“G-Good morning…” Hana spoke first with her lips forming a
smile, the girl small head leaned forward when feeling both of her shoulders
grabbed. He looked taller more than the average height of any male. He was at
least 6’9 perhaps taller when he looked her in the eyes. A strict tone came
down the hall when Sheila was there with a white ruler out, a smacking sound
left her palm with pain in Hana’s eyes. “Let her go…NOW!” Her voice echoed down
the hall with a younger male who immediately came down the hall with his body
moving towards them both, hands reached out grabbing the other male who didn’t
want to let go. “Let her go, Sora!” Their voices sounded anger within them.
Sora did not speak much; his only sound had been a growl when he finally did
let go of Hana.
“Hana, go see Toshio. He will help you with the wounds and
ah, Toshiro can you take her there? The uniform will have to wait till you’re
feeling better.” Part of her tone sounded disappointed by her oldest son
actions. Confusion over why he took such actions towards her. Why did it go so
far? Did she do something wrong…? No. She barely spoke to him since childhood
from memories he always was gone and now…he seems like he wants something.
Loud stomping came from the tall man who cussed in Japanese
over his childish outrage. “Sora, what were you thinking?!” Sheila tone got
louder with him coming towards her room only to slam the door behind him. Both
of her hands touched the chest area, her head shifted down with trying to hold
back tears. This is the first time she ever been in this situation. What could
she do?
“Hana, do not worry about him…I am sure Father and Mother
will solve it. Come…”
That same tone echoed inside of her heart over the dream she
had. It couldn’t have been his… NO! He wouldn’t even be possible. They both
walked down the hall only this time Toshiro had taken his steps cautious over
any other family member. Most of them mind their own business. They looked him
in the eye; nodded their heads up and down to notify someone was in trouble.
Just by a glance, a look in the eyes they knew.
“My wonderful son and Hana! So good to see you both here
along with…” His tone paused when he spotted marks on Hana’s shoulders. Right
away again with the eye glance they knew what had happened even if she was
hiding it. They could tell without another glance. “Sit down on the bed, Hana.”
In his most gentle, yet cautious tone he was looking furious. Toshio had a
short temper never used at Hana only if his children done something to her.
Just like Sora had done. Now he be punished she was sure Sheila be terrifying
to face. “Hana, it is alright…my Father is a great doctor with lots of medical
to help the pain. I am sure she won’t be going to school…?”
Both of them spoke with a fast motion; Hana did not notice a
thing only the room looked clean with his office. He had a next room where the
medical machine that you see in the Hospital would be seen. On the wall; there
had been a few posters of their artwork. Mostly Toshiro’s which he had done
excellent at drawing what his life is when she saw her and him playing in the
sand box outside their courtyard. The short blonde had used a bucket with his
clothing being very formal. He had on a long white shirt, a black vest shaped
at the bottom which ended at his waist, black short pants that ended at his
knees level. His white spiky hair had covered part of his eyes, those two
greenish-teal eyes that brought out the image in itself. The blonde haired girl
had two round puff circles on her shoulders; the dress had been blue with sky
blue ruffles underneath. She had worn two white leg stockings which no shoes be
found in the picture.
“Hana?”
Two blue eyes looked away from the painting, lips opened
partly when she saw Toshiro had turned away to leave. One hand reached out with
her grabbing his navy blue shirt, fingers dug into the fabric with a look of
worry. “…Hana. I told you that Father will not let anyone harm you or will I.
We are here to protect you and even if I wasn’t…Mother always kept her eyes on
you even at school which after this injury you are to rest. School will not be
for you today. Take it easy…” His head turned to the right, one eye gazed into
her eyes, which had tears down both of her cheeks. He felt bad that she was
blaming herself from those sobbing eyes. He knew how she thought or from
experience of woman only Hana was the sweetest cake you could find. One thing
she can’t be harmed. He knew why and never wished to keep it from her but, she
always questioned their parents’ rules. “Will I see you tonight?” Those words
made Toshiro turn around quickly from her eyes it looked too quick.
Two slender arms reached, both of the hands reached around
her waist, his fingers rubbed her back softly when he had his chin on her
shoulder with his height taller than her. The smallest human he ever met had
been her with being only 4’1. “Why do you ask such stupid questions?” His lips
whispered right at her ear with his tone being soft. “I will be at dinner
tonight along with everyone so it would be a treat to sit by you.” He pulled
away with leaving the room having his feet clicking against the ground leaving
her that silence.
The adult male looked identical to his two sons whom
inherited his good looks along with Sheila’s two daughters who also were sweet
to her. They never would make her be scared or harm her. At first they were
cautious however, slowly they grew closer which did surprise her. Both of the
male hands touched the desk, his eyes were on Hana who stood there with her
cheeks shading a crimson color. He loved how sweet his son had become to her.
At first he was surprised at the accident. “Hana, do I need to check your
temperature too? Or will you be good to sit down?” That one word made her open
her mouth wide; moving her legs quickly toward the bed, she sat on top of it
with letting Toshio check her shoulders to see markings of nails into her skin.
Blood had shed a little, nothing to be worried about.
“I-I am sorry I just, my own mind feels bad for what trouble
I caused. Sora, he just…he came out of nowhere and stare so seriously. I was
afraid…” Her words made a quiet sound from the sobbing leaving the petite lips.
“Oh, Hana…” One hand would lightly touch her leg; the other had been used to
stop the bandaging when she saw he already had put the medicine on. It always
was so quick that he didn't waste any time even when she stopped him to speak.
He such a kind man…
“Do not let what Sora did to you frighten whatever he done,
he will be punished severely.” His fingers rose with a sound coming from them.
Two quick snaps; he had his most trusted butler come in with wasting no time.
“Take Hana to her room and stand by till she gets enough rest. Ah, oh first let
her go eat with Toshiro before he leaves.” His eyes gaze into the butler with
speaking no further. The eye thing was really making her be curious. When
Toshio said an order it was followed without any second doubt. “Yes, Mr.
Hitsugaya it will be done.” The butler purple eyes gaze at Hana when he raised
a hand towards her. “Please follow me, Hana-sama.”
The map in the estate was too large for Hana’s brain to
comprehend. Therefore they assigned a butler each day for her. Now with this
attack it would be constant watch over what their children do around her. What
was such a big deal about her? Those questions wouldn’t be answered directly.
They say she is family. They found her, raised her as their own, now what kind
of secrets are they hiding? “Master Toshiro, your Father had approved of her to
eat with you. I shall start ordering once you two are ready.” Spotting movement
from both of her eyes; she noticed his body jumped once or a little flinch. “Is
that so…?” He had a reason for causing Hana to be eating with him. Did he enjoy
watching them? Or was he planning to punish his brother for such rude behavior.
Usually he lets him do whatever with humans when he had that urge. It didn’t
make sense!
“Toshiro…? Would I be alright to sit next to you I wo---“Without
her speaking even further; the chair would be brought out next to Toshiro for
her to sit. The petite bottom touched the chair softly, with her butt against
the cushion on the seat, her hands folded neatly on top of her legs. “I
recommend you sit by him always even at dinner time. The school will be arranging
for that as well.” Suddenly the spoon from his tea would be dropped against the
table. “Why the hell are you deciding things for her? She has her own life and
you sick bastards are doing it for her…!” The color in his skin looked white of
the color snow when he squeezed them. Two hands covered his, with a gentle
motion the blonde haired tried to calm him down. He released a breath when his
head shifted to Hana slightly. “I am sorry, Hana…It pisses me off is all. Don’t
you care what they are doing to you?”
Do I care…? Without
them I have nowhere to go and even if I did care, nothing would be answered as
I can see it they wish to plan something. I did feel worried and constantly
thinking it a plan to get my life to end. However, wouldn’t they have let Sora
finish me off if that was the case…?
“Toshiro, do not worry fo---“Hands removed from hers, both
of his fingers quickly grabbed each side of her arms with pulling her forward.
In his tight embrace; each hand would rub against her back gently only to take
in her scent. It was sweet just like the cake he will be having later. The
cheese cake he had wished to try hearing it was Hana’s favorite. He couldn’t
wait! “Hana…do not speak of your life as nothing. You are something…even in
this house. I consider you as….” What did he think of her like? A sister? A
friend? Something more? He couldn’t pinpoint what that would be. “I just hate
to see you put yourself down. After you eat with me it is to sleep,
understand?” His right index finger raised, he moved it against her cheek in a
soft poke towards her.
Hana was released when the food was brought in on trays with
Toshiro sitting in his chair. He seemed mad about his Father’s decision. He was
looking out for me…wasn’t he? He wish me well, had me eat, but then again…he
said something important will happen in two days. Or at the end of this week.
Siblings were to come and that scared Hana. She never had been at a big family reunion.
“For the food I have brought pancakes with syrup on top, the eggs are fluffy with
some shredded cheese on spread on the eggs. For lastly; we will have bacon that
is crunchy with delighting taste.” Each plate had looked delicious to Hana with
Toshiro staring at her pale skin. She looked so fragile like a doll. His eyes
were making her heart dance with love. Each time he looked; the more she wanted
to look into his eyes even further.
“Thank you, Ryo. Please do tell Father I will send her off
to bed.” One hand rested under his right chin, the frozen gaze moved away with
having Hana look down embarrassed. “Understood, Young Master. Do that intended
or you will be punished if he finds out she is not resting…” After he spoke;
the tall male had his long black hair to the middle of his back, at the bottom
the hair was split in different directions. Those purple eyes look down at Hana with his
warm smile making her feel even more embarrassed. “Now leave! You’re making her
breathe funny…” After that last order; his lips still remained in a smile with
leaving the diner room where they sat quietly. His fork will be placed down; he
moved a finger underneath her chin, feeling the girl forehead was warm but
nothing to be worried about. “T-T-T-Toshiro?! I am fine…I really am so you can
leave for school after the food. Okay, okay?” Honestly…what kind of brain did
they give her? She is stupid. Leave her alone after being attacked by his
brother even that is stupid.
“You are a baaaka! Why would I leave you alone? My brother
just attacked you and now you’re saying to leave? Honestly…I may just carry you
down the hall if you do not obey a simple order. Now eat!” Rubbing from his
finger had left her chin, he moved in his chair backwards so his eyes remain on
her as well. “Y-Yes, I am sorry I just hate making you do stuff that is not in
your schedule. Sorry…”
He was joking about the carrying part. He is concerned for
her skin is not healthy and even her heart is concerning… Even he worried when
she sleeps at night after screaming of those nightmares. He tried to give her pleasant
dreams. The ten minutes went by with Hana last food swallowed down slowly.
“Come, Hana.” The same white hand from her dream appeared right in front of her
eyes. That same hand told her to ‘come’
each time. His gentle voice; where the smile on his lips showed nothing to
fear. He meant it. Each word came out for her to come towards him. He will
protect her if he can.
That same hand of hers reached for his, fingers lightly
traced on his palm where she grabbed in a tight grip. His smile remained when
she stood and he brought her close like before. The pounding in her chest was
going crazy. How…can he be the same?! The dream couldn’t be him from the mirror
if she saw one there. There was none. “Do not leave, Hana. Stay in the room
till my Father lets you leave. Read a book, draw your weird drawings whether
stick o---“Two fingers pinch each side of his cheeks, pulling on his skin the
female had her cheeks puff out. “They are perfect!”
“Ow! Okay, okay I got it.” Using his strength; trying to
pull away from her fingers that pinched roughly. “Hana, promise me you will
stay put. Can you promise me that?” He lowered his eyes a bit; both of them
look down into her blue hues that seem to have little energy. Could she do
that…? There were mysterious secrets she wishes to find out. If she promises
and breaks that. He will be punished for not following the order. It has
happened before from a distant memory of red. “I-I…” “Hana!” “Okay, okay I
promise!” He pulled away from Hana with using all his strength to lift her up
into his arms. “Then I will take you away, Princess!” One eye had closed off;
his one hand rested underneath her legs, the other was against her back when he
started to move out of the room.
How wildly the heart
beats for you…beating hardly I tried to catch my breath only to be pushed
behind with such force from you. Wildly, I wish I could stay along your side
and hold on.
