Chapter 4

" Vash what are you doing here!?" responded a very stunned and surprised Meryl.

" Well now I think that I will leave the two of you alone. I'll see the two of you later." said a running Natalie.

"Well what is it that you wanted to tell me Meryl?" She can't possible want to tell me that she loves me now can she? I mean I know that she feels something for me but love is is...

" Meryl come here please I need to talk to you it's really important!"

"Yes of course Julius!" and off went Meryl towards the direction of the voice as if the devil himself was be hind her leaving a very disappointed Vash.

...is what I'm starting to feel for her I think...no who am I kidding I just care for her right? But there's something wrong I just know it especially since Julius came, but what?

" What is it Julius?" asked Meryl as she neared Julius who was leaning his back on the side of the wall.

" Meryl do you feel something for Vash?"

" That's none of your business Julius!" screamed Meryl as she hit him on the head.

"Fine Meryl you don't have to answer that question but when was the last time you ate?" he asked with a serious and concerned face.

"Well I ate this afternoon you were there with me you idiot!" she stated with a shaky smile on her lips.

"Meryl you know perfectly well that's not what I meant, I mean look at you you're suppose to be taller!"

"Fine if you want to know the truth the last time I ate was a month before I met Vash!"

" Meryl you know better than that! What have you done to yourself the lack of blood has made you shorter and weaker!"
"God damn it Julius I am not a little girl anymore and I can take care of myself!"

"You're right Meryl you're not a little girl but you are starving and please don't try to lie to me since I can practically feel the need in your body."

"No you're wrong Julius!" were the words that came out of her trembling voice as she backed away from him. Running inside before he could say anything else she left him staring at the empty space where she had been.

That girl I've seen her in my dreams I am sure about it. But I feel as if I know her as if I've felt something for her but what?

Hearing the sound of the door close Knives snapped out of his thoughts and looked up to see who had come in. Walking silently towards him Natalie stopped in front of him and offered him a bowl of soup.

" Tell me spider were have I seen you?"

"I am not a spider as you so gracefully put it."

"Yes I suspected that since I met you and your sister, but you still haven't answered my question."

"You have seen me in your dreams."

"How did you know that?!"

" If you really want to know than read my mind but I can't promise you that you'll like everything that you will see."

Reaching out slowly he placed his hands on the side of her face and began his journey for answers.

The witching hour has just been announced as the clock rings cross the empty halls were two figures are lighted by the moonlight.

"Meryl Knives knows everything."

"I take it that you told him?"

"No I let him read me mind."

"What did he say?"

" I don't know I walked out."

"But enough of that Meryl what do you we go out and eat now?"

" ...Yes I am very hunger and I have deprived myself for such a long time."

Anyway Vash will never love me so why deprive my self of something that I need for a guy that will never love me?
