Disclaimer: Matantei Loki Ragnarok doesn't belong to me. It means that I'm just having some fun without many efforts, actually, just as Loki does.

First, I do have to explain to all of you something: this fic is the old PIECE OF HEARTS, that I didn't finish.

I was cleaning up my profile, looking some fics that I never finished and choosing which ones I was going to rewrite or to delete.

I was going to delete this fic, when I saw '50 commentaries' and I thought 'ow. I can't just delete it, people liked it. I would be a jerk!'. And I don't like the word jerk, you know? Plus, I really liked this one. I don't see MLR for a time, but I'll do my best.

I don't know why I decided to remanage all my old and unfinished fics. Maybe I really want to finish them all, and let them published because they're my greatest hobby, and I wanted to see it again before I graduate from college. I see how scared I am of becoming someone so distant from my childish things, that I want to keep them all the best way I can.

Anyway, here it goes. I hope they're still ok when I come back to read, with my 60's. XD kidding!

PS.: Thanks to Ling-hunny-bunny, who helped me with my grammar mistakes and my poor English. Thanks a lot.


PAPERS

1. what you can't say

She stammered again. That was the fourth time just that day.

What the heck was going on with her? Those dreams... Yes, it's their entire fault!

She was fine before them. She had forgotten about those strange facts around him. She had forgotten about the secrets around him, yes, she did! Of course she did…

But suddenly, pieces of scenes crossed her mind while she was asleep, scenes that she couldn't remember when or where, but inside, she had that deep feeling that she already lived each one of those scenes. Armors walking on a corridor. Feats falling in a big bird cage. Nets. Woods. And water... water... so much water...

"Mayura? Are you still here?"

"Oh, gomen ne, Loki-kun!"

"So, what did you want to talk to me about?"

The green eyes were staring at her, serious but gentle. And she could almost see the red color impregnated on them.

"Hun... ano... well... I... ah... do you wanna go to the games with me tomorrow afternoon, Loki-kun?"

Loki sighed.

Again, she couldn't do that. He knew she was trying to ask him something, and his curiosity was torturing his mind - and frightening his heart. Why? What could that human girl ask to the trickiest god to scare him?

He just didn't know.

But he felt his heart beating very fast when she stopped stammering.

"Tomorrow is Sunday, Mayura." - He answered quickly.

"Really! How forgetful I am!"

He watched the girl laughing and blushing pretty hard, with his usual eyes in deep thoughts. His heart just silenced then.

She won't ask anything.

But somehow, he felt himself desperately empty inside.

"Mayura, have you finished sweeping the temple?"

"Yes, Papa!" - Mayura yelled, closing her bedroom's door.

She sat on her desk, looking at her window. How foolish she was! He's her best friend and she couldn't make a simple question!

"How could I ask him about my dreams? They're just dreams!"

She asked herself out loud, and sighed. She couldn't do that. Every time she tried to, she started to blush and stammer, her heart seemed like it would jump from her mouth, and she would just loose all her words.

Mayura opened her diary. She read all the last week. Every each dream... so such real dreams. But... still, she tried to remember, they're just dreams.

(They are not just dreams. You know that.)

"Yes, maybe I do. But..."

(Just remember.)

The girl's head fell over the opened pages of the diary.

"I remember but I can't understand!"

(Ask him.)

"I can't! I... I just can't!"

(He won't go away. He just wants you to trust him.)

Mayura sighed again, the pencil rolling on the paper. She wrote about her full day and that uncomfortable feeling against her chest. She needed to know! She needed to find out what that Fushigi Mystery meant!

"But, how?"

(Why don't you write him?)

Mayura raised her eyes to the window, then to the whole room, and finally got back to her diary.

"Well, at least, I wouldn't stammer here!"

She took a notebook from the left drawer, pulled out a piece of paper and began to write on it.

The girl's shadow behind the detective's assistant just disappeared.

Loki

I don't know how this idea came out but... you know, I know you know because you always know everything before I could know it...

So, well, I've been having some dreams... weird dreams. I had dreams with you. And armors, bird cages, woods, water, red eyes... I'm confused but I know that you already knew it.

Isn't it a Fushigi Mystery?

Answer me!

Hugs and kisses

Mayura

Loki read the piece of paper for the third time. She was crazy. She spent all the day along with him without a word about, just smiling, mumbling, slumbering at the sofa, well, all the same things of every day. And so, when she was going home, she gave him those written words and ran out through the gates.

She was definitely and wonderfully crazy.

Of course he already had noticed her uneasiness lately. He knew she tried talking to him about "something" a lot of times. And, yes, he knew that this "something" could be "that".

But she never went ahead, and he never answered anything.

Well, he had a piece of paper now. It wasn't a letter, at all, but he needed to answer it anyway.

And he did, hearing his heart beating with the sound of the pen over the paper.

Mayura

Yes, it is.

So, have you been dreaming with me, Mayura-chan?

Kisu

Loki

He left the piece of paper on his desk, waiting for the next day.
