Gomen Nasai!

"Finished." I said, wiping my forehead. I have completely finished the Valentine's Ball Gown. I was quite satisfied with my work. I placed the gown on a hanger, opened the closet, hung it from the pole, placed the shoes under the gown, and closed the closet. I then did a neko-like stretch and smiled to myself.

"Now I simply can't wait till the Ball" I said to myself with a smile. I headed out the door and bumped into someone in the process, causing them to fall down. Man! Why I getting so clumsy lately??

"Ah! Summimasen! Pardon me!" I apologized slightly bowing with my eyes closed.

"Ouch..." said the person in a male voice. I opened my eyes and it was Reo-kun!

"Oh! Reo-kun! Gomen nasai! I'm sorry. I didn't see you there" I apologized some more, holding out a hand. He took my hand and I pulled him up.

"It's okay really. I'm not hurt." he smiled.

"I'm glad that you're not hurt, but I should really look where I'm going.." I told him. That's true. I couldn't focus lately. While making the dress, I went to a process of constant dozing off into deep thought. I didn't know why.

"It was an accident that caught me by surprise. That's all. Its okay, Estelle. Really." he insured me with another smile. I blushed a little.

"Well okay, then Reo-kun." I semi-smiled back. "Did you need something?" I added. I mean he must have have something to say since he was in front of my door. He looked down and nodded. He then hesitantly pulled something out his pocket, opened it open and showed it to me.

"Hmm? What's this? ... The Valentine's Ball paper?" I asked while looking at it.

"Un..." he nodded. "So you have h-heard about it?"

"Yes. I just finished making my gown for it." I responded.

"Oh.. I see. S-So... um.." he started.

"Huh? Yes Reo-kun?" I tilted my head.

"Uh... um... H-hey um... Would you like to go to the ball dance thing with me?" He asked turning his head to the side. His face then gotten slightly read. My eyes widen and my face became completely red. D-Did he just asked me to be his.. Date?

"S-sure." I responded. I then put on a great smile on my face. "Yes. Of course! I will, I will! Thank you for asking me Reo ...Kun." I said to him. He looked at me and his face lit up.

"G-Great! Um.. Well then... See you later, Estelle-Chan" he said running off.

"Ch...Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-CHAN?!" I squealed. My body was completely red now, as if that was even possible. I have a date! I have a date! Reo-kun is my date! Reo-kun called me Estelle-Chan!! I skipped down the hall with my eyes closed humming the same tune again but happier. Then I began to sing it.

"I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
But I don't know how to start
I wanna tell you, but now
I'm afraid that you might break my heart
Oh why should anything so easy ever
Be so hard to do
I wanna tell you what I'm feeling,
And to say that, I love y-"

As soon as I was going to sing the last part of that word, I bump into another person, but this time I was the one who fell back. Geesh! Estelle you're officially a klutz!, I thought.

"Ouch-ies... I fell on my tail" I whined, looking at my soar tail.

"Estelle?" said the deep voice before me. It was Lux. Oh no... Lux. I couldn't face him now! My heart pounded to that sad rhythm again. My whole happy aura distant itself from me and in came a sad presence.

"Oh.. I'm sorry. I didn't see you there." he said holding out an arm. I held my head down and got up on my own, rejecting his help.

"Is you're tail okay?" he asked. I didn't respond. I kept my head down. I couldn't respond to him even if I wanted to; no words would come out.

"Well, is it?" he asked. I still didn't respond.

"Estelle, why won't you speak to me?" he asked with me aggression. I couldn't tell you if I wanted to...

"Ah... I see. You saw us, didn't you?" Lux asked once again. I clenched my fist. No... I don't wish to remember. I'll hurt again...

"Estelle, I smelt you're sent earlier. So don't tell me you didn't" he said. I wasn't going to, Lux.

"Estelle!" he yelled out. I flinched and walked around him. I then began to run.

"Wait!" Lux yelled at grabbed onto my wrist. No... Don't touch me... I suddenly felt a strange spark within me. Wow... That was strange.. I wonder if he felt it too.., I thought. I kept looking down because I couldn’t look at him.

"Estelle if you think-"

"I'm going to the ball..." I interrupted with a low tone. "I'm going.. With Reo-kun... as a date." A dead silence filled the air.

"... Ah. I see... Well you two have fun." he said to me. I felt his grip loosen,. A chance!

"Gomen nasai!" I said then snatching my hand away then running away. Once I was gone from his sight, I stopped and panted. I felt my chest and my heart was racing like before. I slowly inhaled then exhaled. My heart slowly came to a peacefully beat. Letting out a big sigh, I thought to myself: Why did I apologize?

Continue?
