Chapter: And so it ends….

Lucia sat by the water's edge with Kyo next to her. He was skipping stones across the ocean's surface. She could tell his mind was preoccupied. She looked at her reflection in the water. She sighed. His gaze suddenly averted to her. She looked up, meeting his gaze. "Hey, what's wrong?" he asked.

She sighed. "I am sorry but I was just thinking about-"

"Kaito-san, correct?" he finished for her.

She nodded. He sighed and said, "That's it! We're going for karaoke." He pulled her up and began dragging her towards the city.

She protested but he didn't stop leading her there. Kyo was being awful nice about the whole ordeal. She smiled slightly. That's just what kind of person he was. Nice. Before she knew it, she was at the karaoke corner. He smiled and pushed her towards the microphone, and that is where she put her foot down. No way was she embarrassing herself by singing in front of a boy again. "No.No! NO!" she shouted.

"Okay, okay, keep your hair on. I'll sing." He said, walking towards the mike. He picked a song and began to sing.

And so it is
Just like you said it would be
Life goes easy on me
Most of the time
And so it is
The shorter story
No love, no glory
No hero in her sky

She was amazed. GREAT! Another person who's better than her at singing. She huffed but froze when she saw Sayo on her own. Sniffling and crying. She felt a stab of guilt. But all the same, she felt like running to Kaito and kissing him. She looked at Kyo whose eyes were closed. She sighed. She couldn't do it, not in the cost of ditching Kyo. She remembered what he said earlier, "Word to the wise, Lucia-sama, if you let Kaito play both hands with mermaid you and human you…he will continue to play with you, and someone will be hurt."

Someone will be hurt…


I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

And so it is
Just like you said it should be
We'll both forget the breeze
Most of the time
And so it is
The colder water
The blower's daughter
The pupil in denial

Suddenly she heard someone call her name. She spun around, and saw Kaito. "There you are!" He said.

"Here I am!" she said.

"Wow," he said stopping, "He's good…"

"Yea…" she agreed.

I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off of you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes off you
I can't take my eyes...

He opened his mouth to speak but then closed it again. "What is it?" she enquired.

"Nothing," he said blushing.

"No, really."

"I like you, Luchia, I like you a lot." He admitted.

She saw Kyo open an eye and then close it smiling. He knew that Kaito would come looking for her. "Will you be my girlfriend?"

Someone will be hurt…


Did I say that I loathe you?
Did I say that I want to
Leave it all behind?

I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off of you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind off you
I can't take my mind...
My mind...my mind...

'Til I find somebody new

"No, Kaito…I've waited long enough for you to realize…and yet…you're still so DENSE!" she said, blinking back tears. Kyo came by her side.

"What are you doing," he hissed.

"And so it ends…" she simply said, walking away.

Kaito stared behind her, awestruck. Then he looked at Kyo. "I need you to help me win her back.

OK, so this fic is over. I'll put in a sequel. Tell me what you think. The song is Blower's daughter by Damien Rice.

I do not own MMppp
