Alrighty, I don't own Magic Knight Rayearth, any of the characters and or likenesses. I also do not own NBC's Passions. So don't think I have any money, I promise you, I spent my last $10 on a Steps CD. Fuu and Ferio belong to CLAMP and not me, though I sure have writen enough about them! Now on to the story....
If Tomorrow Never Comes
Chapter One
Fuu lay curled up in her bed. Her white comforter was wrapped
tightly around her. Her golden locks were puddles against the
white pillow case. Underneath the sheets she clutched a fat
stuffed orange cat that before she had only held when she was
little. She looked so young and childlike as if the clock had
been set back 10 years.
The phone rung for the fifth time before Fuu's mother answered it
quietly. After finding out who it was she went to her daughters
room and woke her.
Fuu's eyes fluttered open, they were still fogged with sleep as
she took the phone from her mom's hand. She sat up and let the
covers slip off.
"Thanks," she whispered to her mother. Then into the
phone she said, "hello?"
"Hey, just callin' to check on ya." The person on the
other end replied.
"Hm? I'm doing better." Fuu replied slowly.
"Oh by the way, this is Ferio, I noticed you weren't in
school again and wanted call and make sure you were ok."
"Oh, alright. Thank you Ferio, I didn't know you
cared." She replied softly, sounding harsher then she meant
to.
"Um yup sorry if I bothered you." Ferio said sounding a
bit let down.
"Sorry, my head's still fuzzy, I just woke up." Fuu
said trying to make it up to him.
"It's fine. I'm sorry I really didn't mean to bother
you." Ferio said and was getting ready to hang up the phone.
"Ferio, would you like to walk me to school tomorrow?"
Fuu asked suddenly.
Ferio blinked in surprise and was glad Fuu couldn't see him.
"Sure, that would be great."
"Good, then I will see you tomorrow right?"
"Right." Ferio replied as he grinned. "Bye
Fuu."
"Bye Ferio." She hung up and handed the phone to her
mother.
Her mom smiled. "He seems like such a nice boy."
Fuu nodded. "He's walked me home a few times, and we often
eat lunch together."
"Your boyfriend huh?" Her mom said with a wink.
Fuu blushed and laughed. "Hardly mother, I don't even know
where he lives. Or his phone number."
Her mom laughed, "girls always say that."
Fuu shook her head. "So, is Kuu home yet?" She asked,
trying desperately to change the subject.
"No, her class isn't over until five. Would you like any
lunch?"
Fuu nodded. "Yes that would be good..."
Her mom patted her on the head. "Don't worry, you'll be
ok."
Fuu nodded but still hated getting sick, especially when it came
and went so often. She had headaches in the morning and was
throwing up then too. And no, she wasn't pregnant, so it wasn't
morning sickness.
She was feeling better as the day went on she decided to get out
of bed. She climbed out of bed and stretched her stiff body and
yawned. She had on a pair of green satin pajama's, a pair of
pants and a tank top.
Fuu went down stairs, passing pictures of her and her family on
the walls along the way. She smiled, she always loved how her mom
hung the framed family photos along the wall of the stair way. It
was like walking from the past into the future, and always
arriving at the latest photo.
When she got down stairs her mother and father were talking
quietly in the kitchen, but stopped suddenly as Fuu came into the
room.
"How are you feeling dear?" Her father asked with a
faked smile.
"Fine, just fine, my headache is gone and I've been able to
keep down my lunch from about one o'clock." Fuu replied as
she took a seat at he kitchen table.
Her dad leaned up against the green fake marble top counter. His
expression was one of concern. He folded his arms and studied
Fuu.
"Please father, don't look at me like that. It was just the
flu or something." Fuu said as she shook her head.
Kuu came in the door just then, breaking the tension in the room.
"Good evening everyone. Class ended early so I hurried
home."
"Was it a nice session?" Her mom asked.
Kuu nodded. "Yes, it really was. So, what's everyone up
to?"
Fuu shrugged. "Me, I am eating."
Kuu laughed, "I could have guessed that myself."
"Fuu is feeling better, and even has a date." Her mom
replied with a smile.
The 16 year old Fuu blushed. "Mooooommmmmm," Fuu wined.
"It only asked him to walk me to school so we could
talk."
Kuu slid into the seat next to Fuu and looked her in the eye.
"So, so, who is he??!" Kuu asked excitedly.
Fuu shook her head and almost laid it down on the table, but then
remember she had a bowl of tomato soup and it would be best not
to put her face in it.
"Ferio, you wouldn't know him." Fuu replied softly.
"Aww my little sister Fuu-channies is growing up on
me!" Kuu said as she smiled.
"Please Kuu, I am eating." Fuu grumbled.
Kuu laughed and patted Fuu on the head. Fuu sighed.
Fuu did admit to herself that she was looking forward to seeing
Ferio in the morning. And she hoped that some day she and Ferio
could be a couple, Ferio was such a sweet and funny guy. But
there was no way she was going to tell her mother or her sister
that.
Fuu swallowed another spoonful of soup. Slowly images of Ferio
crept into her thoughts once more. The idea of Ferio's arms
rapping around her, how his arms would feel. What it would be
like if he would kiss her. How it would feel to hear him say
'Fuu-chan'. She smiled dreamily and let out a sweet sigh.
Kuu began laughing. "Fuu, *what* are you thinking
about?!"
Fuu quickly took another spoonful of her tomato soap and filled
her mouth. She then stared down at the bowl and hoped her sister
would leave her alone.
"So, did you have fun staying home from school?" Kuu
asked with a smirk. "What happened on Passions today?"
Fuu's face fell and she set the spoon down. "I didn't wake
up in time to watch any soap opera's. After my head ache subsided
I was really tired."
"Darn, I was hoping I'd be able to squeeze all the details
out of you before dinner. That way I wouldn't have to wait until
I'm done my home work to watch the tape." Kuu said as she
pouted.
"I'll watch with you then," Fuu replied.
"I'm interested in seeing if they really blow up Sheridan
and Luis' boat. There's no way they would... Not after that whole
buried alive thing." Kuu said as she shuddered slightly.
Fuu laughed. "Did those scenes truly bother you?"
"More than you will ever know... I don't want to be buried
when I die, god forbid I'll wake up six feet under..." Kuu
said as her eyes widened.
Fuu laughed and shook her head. The best part of that story was
when Sheridan was rescued. Then of course you find out she has
brain damage. And her boyfriend Luis prays for her at the church
on Christmas eve. And she had already woken up and was fine, but
he didn't know. And just as he finished the prayer she says his
name. Fuu grinned. She loved the feeling of seeing those two
embrace after that. She longed for someone to look at her like
that, even just once would make her happy.
"There you go again," Kuu grumbled.
"I was just thinking about Luis and Sheridan..." Fuu
replied.
"Suuuuure," Kuu replied as she gave her sister a side
ways glance.
A shiver suddenly ran up Fuu's spine, and she was surprised.
Thinking of Ferio had never done that before. 'It must be
love...' She whispered to herself.
oooo This is only the beginning to a story that will be at least 5 chapters.
