Love Letter

~1

It was seven in the morning when my alarm went off, the beeping jolting me out of dreamland. I hit the off switch, and stretched, piecing together the fragments of a dream that was almost gone.

Fire. Snow. Him. Naturally the dream had Soubi in it, we'd been bonded as Loveless for a year, so it was normal my dreams centered around my fighter. The question was, why'd I dream of both snow and fire? I wasn't sure.

I got out of bed to get dressed. I put on the blue sweater, and black jeans Soubi had grown fond of, because, like everyday after school, he'd be there, waiting for me.

It was winter, so I was thankful for the warmth of the sweater, plus my coat. I grabbed my bag, and things, opening my door and heading to the front door. Mother was watching T.V. So I said a quiet, 'See you.' to her, and left.

School was always the same, day after day, though today it was a little different. "Alright everyone, get out a piece of paper and a pencil." Sensei was saying. I wasn't listening, I was daydreaming. As sensei finished talking, I looked up.

Yuiko was bouncing up and down in her seat as she turned to me. "Hey, Ritsuka-kun! Who ya gonna write to? Huh?" She made a big smile and started to scribble on her paper. I looked at her, perplexed. "I'm writing to my mom!"

She glanced at me, then pointed at the board. I looked up front. On the board, sensei had written, 'Write a letter to a loved one, telling them how you feel. Two paragraphs.' I took one last look then stared down at the piece of paper Yuiko had gladly given me, thinking of what to write. I picked up my pencil and started to write, the person I was writing to fresh in my mind....
