I sighed at the ocean , feeling like I was worthless . I always feel tiny under the skies , or by the ocean...And now, I was thinking aout how I wasn't there to save Marhae from the bullies,blamed myself endlessly,and how Marhae's brother told me it wasn't my fault..But boyfriends are supposed to keep close guard on their-Agh , that is...Marhae and I aren't exactly..'There' . Yet . Agh ! It was- no , it wasn't what it sounded like ! I'm not planning on being with her or anything , I mean ,'Yet'?  No ! But because she was wearing a flu mask , a stinkin' flu mask while making breakfast this morning just so I wouldn't see how badly they scarred up and bruised my sweet little Marh- Agh ! There's a fish ! Hold on...

I reeled it in as fast as I could . A bass . What was a bass doing out here in the peir ? I mean , it's salt water and then .. I saw something incredibly beautiful in the distance . It was a blue ,bluish-greenish fin , the fin of a very large fish ... Man , my words aren't making sense anymore ! Everything's beginning to swirl and slur together . I headed home as the sun set .

Well,I got home , fell asleep , and I'll go fishing again some other day .One of these days, after I apoligize to Marhae for not defending her.Ever.But I was honestly hoping to catch that gorgeous fish...it was honestly the most gorgeous thing I've ever seen... Next to the girl sleeping in the room left of me. Let me tell you a small , creepy secret ; At night , when I'm terrified beyond belief of the darkness , I press my forehead against the wall on my left , and it seems...Everything's safe again . It's like I'm keeping a close eye on her , but not really .  And I figure , that since Marhae's in that room left of me, it helps me to relax as long as she's safe...And close to me . And under the same roof as me and her brother . Daniel . I woke up after a pleasant little dream about a warm,perfect day at the beach with Danny . We were fishing. I caught the pretty fish from before. And then Marhae started falling from the sky, into the middle of the ocean.

Alright , you're probably laughing at me , the guy who 'gets his jollies' by knowing there's a certain 'ward' to protect in the same house , but God ,I can't stand my emotions . Everything started changing even more after my 15th birthday. I can't stand this change....There was a knock on the door, and I felt something die in me again for a bit . I immediately pretended to be asleep ,pressing my forehead against the amazing wall . As if I would be able to see her room through it...

"Hazaru ? Are you awake ? I'm coming in , Ururu ! " , Ah , like the sound of ... stop laughing at me , I can't help it ! They took me in since I was 13 ...And now I'm 16 . And hormonal . And perverted . And hearing heaven's most precious angel knocking away at my door . I hid my smile under my sheets , tightly shutting my eyes , and pressing my forehead deeper into that amazing wall . Her muffled footsteps got louder and louder .

...The angel treads lightly .

Shut up , that line made me feel like laughing at how corny it all sounded . "Ururu , get up , breakfast's done ! " ,even when she's nearly yelling, the sound of her voice is just...Augh , not this again . "Come on , you wouldn't want me to do the 'Amazing Marhae Rude Awakening Routine' again , riiight ?" Being completely honest, I love waking up to the strange sensation of a cute little brunette angel jumping on my bed until I wake up . And sometimes jumping on my leg . Painfully on my leg continuously. Augh , that sounded so nasty .

"Alright then , Rude Awakening technique , here we go ! " It was like some sort of jumping Marhae earthquake . And then it stopped . And then she toyed with my hair . Which is even better than her Rude Awakening Technique . "I can't believe it didn't work again . I need a better technique ,eh,little Ururu ?" I don't mind the pet name . Only she gets to call me that . Anyone else who calls me that personally dies by my hands . But Daniel's an exception . He calls and me Hazzey (Hah-Zee) ,never Ururu. "A much better technique. " I think she got up and left . I heard voices in the distance . The door slammed , and I still pretended to be asleep . Just for the fun of it . She can do whatever she wanted and I still wouldn't 'wake up' .

Even if she just layed down really close next to me.  And has her cheek pressed at my neck . And is running her fingers through my hair right now . And just sighed down my neck . And started whispering into my ear . I'm trying to restrain my twitch . I'm trying not to tense up . But I'm tensing up . No , not 'down there', you pervs . Just 'chills down my spine' tensing up . "Aww , Ururu's so adorable when he drools..." ...gulp. My face is already very red , so it doesn't even matter...

"Very ,very adorable..." , GULP . She got closer . And started curling my hair around . "Especially for a guy that.." ,wait for it...waaiiit fooor iiiiit-"...Pretends to be asleep for the Hell of it ! " Owch. I'm in pain. I don't know if it's because the 'adorable' part wasn't true , or that she yelled that into my ear . Loud . I'm still 'asleep' . "Dag nabbit ! You're good at this game , but can you handle this?" She's cute when she's angry. Too bad that my eyes are closed and I can't see her blazing with that rage of hers . Ha . She got closer . Combed my hair with her fingers . No problem , two can play at this game . I groaned . A sleepy groan . I rolled over so I was practically on her. I could play this game forever....Ah, but I was pushed away . Awww.... "Alright then , I'll win this game ! " , she inhaled deeply , which couldn't be a bad thing . Oh , God,  I think I know what she's doing !

"Eyaaaahhhhh!!!!!!!" , Marhae screamed into my ear ,  painfully loud , I think my ear's bleeding . It's still ringing . I had no choice but to wake up , which annoyed me like Hell , I mean I was ENJOYING that 'wake up technique' , I mean it's more like a treatment than a...Wow , I'm becoming more and more like Daniel every day ... "Marhae , I had the most beautiful dream...Someone held me tight , and then some ugly little creep decided to scream my ears out until they freakin' bled . " ,I have to keep a looow profile,you know , play it coool,and not give any hints that I like heeer you knooow...? Daniel dragged us to the dining room . " Adorable when he drools ? Nice one,little kiddo ! " I died a bit again . I wilt everytime Daniel bites down on me like that . He knows I adore-argh, urmm..'Have eyes for' his little sister . Who's about my age . Okay, we're the same age , but ,well...

After breakfast ,I asked Daniel about...A night out with Marhae .If it would be alright with him. And if he could ask her out to the beach with me . And I got his blessings ,I guess. So ,until this whole thing blows over and once Marhae says 'yes' (damn straight I've got confidence , and Hell yes is she going to go with me tonight!) , I'll be at the pier , trying to catch that fish again ..I'll use the enormous scales to make something for Marhae . I'll eventually get used to calling her by endearing titles...
