The sun shone through the window, casting a rose glow over the figure on the bed.

She stares blankly at the ceiling, not bothering to get up. The door of her room slightly opens, as midnight blue eyes takes a peek in. outlining the curves of her body, the gentle color of her skin, and her golden shoulder length hair, small waves taking form mid-way.

The midnight blue eyes blink, as it follows down the curve of her body to her slender legs. He smirks behind the door, and slowly opens it more, stepping in slowly, creeping up behind her.

He prepares to surprise her, and when he takes the final the step, he accidentally steps on her small squeeling toy moogle.

She quickly is snapped out of her long gaze and turns to face him with a smile.

"Oh..Hey..." Mika softly speaks towards him "Hm..What's wrong?"

She notices the akward position he was, just frozen with his hands up. He quickly stretches out his arms, and gives a nervous smile.

"Oh nothing, just stretching...Sorry to barge in Mika" He chuckles scratching the back of his head nervously.

Mika shaked her head, giving him an 'It's okay' look.

Her grey eyes, showed the hint of joy in seeing him. She took a careful look on him, she always admired Damien's dark raven hair, and enjoyed the way it felt whenever she had the chance to stroke her delicate fingers through it. His complextion was of a god's to her.


"So what you've been up to?" He spoke out, as he sat himself down beside her.

"huh?..Oh..Yeah..Um not so much.." She looked over across her room, and stood up as she decided to turn on her radion and adjust it to the CD player.

"How about you Damien...anything new? Job?....Girls?" She grinned at the last question.

"Hm..lets see..Im still doing the usual at the hotel, and..on girls?.." He layed back on her bed, and chuckled. "Well there is this one girl..."

A soft melody is being played, starting of simple, setting the flow in the room a bit.

"Oh?" That's all Mika managed to say as she wanted to hear more.

Mika and Damien has been friends since Junior High, Mika was considered the quiet type who really didn't have any friends. Damien in the other hand was cool among his friends, and was smart aswell, he was a member of the baseball team of the "Junior High Tora" (Tora = Tiger) Damien noticed Mika in his Chemistry class, working by herself on a difficult project, He moved up to her, away from his friends, and lended a hand without asking or anything. All that was needed to reassure her was his smile, and she simply smiled back.

Now they are both in High school, almost finishing ,and still friends.

Mika climbed onto her bed, and seeing Damien comfortably on his back, she rested her head on his chest, both smiling, bringing in each other's warmth.

"So who is the lucky girl..hm?"

"Oh..just someone I knew for a while now"

"Who is she? Do I know her? Where is she from?" How did you meet her?" She threw so many questions at him, as if she was a jelous girlfriend in a way. Damien just chuckled, and told her to slow down.

"Look, yes you know her, and she's from around here" He lifted up a bit, and looked at her smiling.

"You forgot to answer me something"

"Hm?..What?"

"I first asked who is she..So who is he?"

"Oh.." He stood quickly, just removing her completely off of him

"Huh? Whats wrong?"

"Oh nothing really" He laughed out loud

She giggled and dropped the question instead. The song that was playing slowly faded away into a different track.
