chapter 3

" Julien" whispered Meryl `s pale lips as she tired to backup but couldn't because her body was trapped in his strong arms.

Leaning closer to her so that their cheeks touched each others his mouth slightly moved touching her ear whispering silently and with charm " what's wrong Meryl, why are you so afraid to see me?"

Leaning her body closer to his she enclosed her arms around him and whispered

back to him "nothing, nothings wrong I just didn't think that I would see you again this soon that's all."

"You know Meryl I really missed you."

"I missed you too Julien."

"MERYL HELP!!!"

Snapping back to reality both of them turned their heads quickly to see where the yelling came from. To Meryl's unsurprised the yelling came from Vash who at the moment was getting climbed on by a bunch of children.

"MERYL HELP!!!"

"You broomhead I'm coming!"

Running she got to Vash and helped him take the children off and than she took both Vash and the children to get ice cream.

Stupid Vash I know he could have taken those children off of him if he really wanted to. Maybe he did it because he wanted my help. Who the hell am I kidding he probably doesn't even know that I'm a girl!

Once everyone had their ice creams Vash turned around to face Meryl " Thanks Meryl for the ice cream!"

" I did it for the children Vash not for you!"

" Huh Meryl you're still mad at me." Vash said while covering his face with one arm.

Turning his head around quickly Vash looked around his surroundings and than with a panicked face he turned to Meryl "Meryl where's Knives?"

The reply came in the form of a charming and yet icy voice "He went after Natalie ."

Slightly turning his head Vash came eye to eye with Julien.

" Who's Natalie and who are you?" Vash asked with a serious face.

" My name is Julien and I am a childhood friend of Meryl's and Natalie is Meryl's sister."

" Meryl you have a sister!"

"No I have two."

"Why didn't you ever tell me?"

"You never asked."

" What else haven't you told me about yourself?"

" Sorry Vash but right now isn't the time to ask that and anyway shouldn't we go find Knives and Natalie?"

Grabbing Julien's arm Meryl started heading towards their new estate not noticing that she was leaving a very stunned and hurt Vash behide.

Later that night Meryl and Natalie were sitting outside on the new wide and large garden that they decided to magically grow with their angelic powers.

" Natalie tell me the truth how is it that you know Knives and yet it seems that he somewhat remembers you?"

"The truth is that we met a long time ago and fell in love but something happened that I thought that I was going to die so I made any memory he had about me seem like a dream."

"Do you still love him?"

"Yes, you see I never stopped loving him and I hope to somehow regain his love."

" And you Meryl, are you going to tell Vash the truth soon?"

"Tell me what?" came a voice from be hide them.
