Creeping Up On You Chapter 3- Remember Me
All notes, warnings, and disclaimers still apply.
I feel you so close to me
I hope you still think of me
even I know you found another love
you took away my chance to
be with you forever
to be your love and stay together
you gave away the precious love
that we had to somebody else
oh baby I wanna tell you
remember me
remember everything we used to be
can you feel my heart pounding, pounding
will be forever, will you
remember you, remember me
I remember everything we used to be
\'cause my blood is still pumping, pumping
will be forever, will you remember me

Creeping Up On Me Chapter 3- Remember Me
~!@#$%^&*()_++_))(*&^%$#@!~KAY
I bolted upright, a scream so close to the surface. Tears had begun to stream down my face and I was too terrified to even think. I didn’t see what was in front of me, namely the counter, Meg and Mia. I could still feel bands of steel around my chest, constricting, stealing my breathe. It was so hard to breathe. I was gasping as I tried to slow down everything, my head, my heart, my breathing.
Slowly everything began to come into the correct focus. Meg’s face swam into view, the concern I have seen on her face so many times seem etched there permanently. I wanted to cry for her. I turned to find Mia next to me on the right, her face grim, her hands bloody. I lunged, startling both of them, forward to grab them both into a hug. I cried as if I haven’t cried at all for the last four years.
They held me, all three of us in awkward positions. They just let me hold them and cry, cry until there was nothing left. Meg was the first to interrupt the silence that had over taken us. “Honey, Sano is here, he can take over your shift both here and at Kenshin’s.”
I don’t know why either of them have put up with me and my irrational fears for the last four years, five if you count the one I just can’t remember. I shook my head. I was tired of leaving everything up to them! I shakily stood up, wiping my face and eyes. The room was the same, it held the same ambience of a small café full of friends, family and warmth. It was almost as if nothing had happened, except for the underlying current of tenseness that circulated around the room like air conditioning. It cooled the cozy atmosphere.
I found Sano, he was waiting tables, (getting a surprisingly conscious Shishio and unconscious Yumi out the door) I couldn’t let them do this any more! I wanted my friends to have a life, not to be with me 24/7. It wasn’t fair to them!
~!@#$%^&*()_++_)(*&^%$$##@!~HIM
I could see the fire ignite in her beautiful eyes. The blaze of purpose and anger made them glitter with a passion I hadn’t seen in them for quite some time. It was only a matter of time before my amei broke from her shell.
~!@#$%^&*()_+_)(*&^%$#@!~ KAY
I was tired of letting my friends live for me. They had to have dreams and goals that had nothing to do with me. “Sano?”
He turned to face me. His eyebrow shot up. “yeah, Kay?”
“Will you stay and finish my shift here tonight? I just need a little time alone before I go to the club. I can also help you study, if you come to the club tonight, its one of the slow nights. Please?” I gave him the big round eyes that most people fall for, he was a softy but every once in a while that look just wouldn’t work. Here’s hoping it will today.
“Sure, Kay. I’ll hold you to that promise to help me study,” I suddenly found myself approaching him.
I stopped just short of him, I couldn’t make myself move anymore. I was so close and yet so far away. I wanted so bad to hug him like I used to, to feel safe in the arms of my best friend. I backed away, apparently it wasn’t going to happen tonight. Damn it.
Mia and Meg both asked if I needed some one to walk home with me, as I headed to the crew room to gather my stuff. I shook my head. “Not tonight, besides there is much to do and I need to think. I’ll be fine, no worries,” that was something we used to say to each other, it had been 5 years since the last time any one had said it, that I can remember.
I headed out the back door. I didn’t want to face any one in the café right now. Thankfully my walk was only a few blocks. I needed to think. I needed to figure out how to free my friends from the demon leech that is me, the life sucking thing that I need to figure out how to over come.
I wasn’t paying attention to anything except my thoughts, and given the day I have had, I should have been alert. Not tonight. I blindly walked into my apartment. I got through the living room/foyer area, almost to my bedroom door, before I looked up. My neck tingled as I scanned the relative dark of my apartment. Something wasn’t right. I let the thought go, nothing here to fear, not in my one sanctuary.
I walked in my room, flipping the light on, to find something on my bed. A Calla Lily. Just one, with a blood red bow tied to it. I freeze in my room. I
can see myself running, I feel the terror that has welled up in me, spilling over me. I can’t stop, something is behind me. I can hear it, it is always getting closer, so close it can almost touch me. I’m in a forest. The trees I had once thought so beautiful are almost like a cage. Running, must keep moving, never stopping. I stumble over some roots. I fall. NO! I cant stop. I have to keep going! Please some one Help me! I cant move anymore, NO! its right behind me now. I can see nothing…
I come to myself again, but this time I am tied down. I can barely move. My arms are stretched over my head but my legs are free. I am in the dark, but I can feel, and I am terrified, I don’t think the feeling will ever leave me. The only thing I can see is a Calla Lily. A Death Lily, hanging over me.
I shake my head to help clear it. I can feel my breath being dragged in to my body in great gulps as if I had just run for ever. As if I was still trapped.
