Chapter 2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
End of chapter one (aka: recap)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She sighed sadly as she recalled how she watched them walk together one night on a bridge. They were so close. Touko looked
happy. Amon looked like himself, but she was certain that he must be happy inside too.

She wished she could make him that happy. She wished she could make him feel as though he actually WANTED to stay here.
With her...

// This is all my fault. He shouldn't have come. He shouldn't have to still be here.//

A tear escaped her eye.

Then she heard a knock on the door.

" Hey! You in there?"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
chapter 2, (for real this time)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Her head shot up at the sound of someone at her door. She didn't hear what they said, so she kept quiet.

" Hey! I said, ' You in there?'"

She sighed with relief...

Just Nagira. She would be sure to give him hell for scaring her like that. He was supposed to call before he got here to
give her a heads up that he was coming.

She walked to door in a haste so his yelling wouldn't wake up anyone else in the building.

She looked at him as he walked in, a grin on his face.

// Just like always...I swear his face must be stuck like that or something...//

" You were SUPPOSED to call..."

Nagira nervously scratched his head. Pissing a witch off was NOT wise. Pissing the witch off that his brother watched
after...

He had signed a death wish when he didn't call...

" Aww...c'mon, Robin. I forgot. You don't expect me to remember everything, do you?"

" No not, everything. I just expect you to remember a small task that Amon has asked you to do everytime you come."

Nagira sighed. He muttered, " Oh, well...Can't do nothin' now..."

Robin shook her head, taking his bag with her as she walked towards the living room. Nagira raised his head in suprise. She
wasn't mad.// I can deal with that...//

He followed to the couch, where he always slept. He wouldn't tkae Robin's bed because his gentlemanly (is that a word?) side
wouldn't let him. He woudn't take Amon's bed because Amon was grumpy when he didn't get a good night's sleep. Not that
Nagira, himself, wasn't but...a pissy Amon was NOT something he wanted to deal with...ever...even if he was the big brother,
Amon was still scary.

Even he had to admit that his little brother was not someone to fool with. Mind you they had actually had a few brotherly
spats before, but that was different. That was to entertain Robin. She said it was " amusing to watch the boys play."

" Are you hungry, Nagira?"

" Huh? Oh yeah...plane food sucks."

He heard a giggle come from the kitchen. Yep. Amon would be having a field day right about now. If he were here...

He walked into the kitchen, and looked around. It looked about the same as before. There was a small calendar posted on the
fridge. When he took a closer look, he noticed that it was Amon's schedule. It said that he was off tomorrow for Christmas.
( Do they have Christmas in England? oh well, they do now...)

He began to wonder if either had taken notice of the date. It was Christmas Eve. It didn't seem as though Robin had taken
notice. And if she hadn't noticed, he was positive Amon hadn't.

You see, whenever he came, and there was some holday coming up soon, he would always hear Robin telling Amon that he needed
to remember the day was coming up. It was as though she were a talking calendar. She could tell you everything. Really.

The sound of a door opening gained both person's attention. Nagira placed a hand on Robin's back, signaling for her to stay
put. She nodded slightly, walking further into the kitchen.

As Nagira walked out of the kitchen, he saw something moving to his left, near the entrance of the apartment. He sighed in
relief.

" It's okay, Robin. Just the idiot."

He saw Amon shoot him glare. Nagira shrugged.

Amon leaned back a little to see Robin grinning and shaking her head while making something to eat. He leaned forward again,
then bent over to untie his muddy boots.

" Are you hungry, Amon?"

" Yes. What are you making?" he replied in his cool voice. ( his voice rocks...its sexy...::nods:: yeah...)

" Nothing much, really. Just something small to go with coffee."

She heard a grunt from the entrance that pretty much told her that Amon approved. She continued making small cake-like foods
for them all.

~~~~~
after breakfast
~~~~~

" Amon?"

" Yes?"

" Why are you back so early?"

Robin didn't have it in her to ask why he was HOME so early. As was explained earlier...this isn't home. Home was... well,
you know what home was.

// Makes me want doughnuts.// She laughed at herself.

Nagira and Amon both watched as she continued to laugh at something that they had yet to find. Nagira finally spoke up.

" Are you okay?" he asked suspiciously.

Amon nodded in agreement. (for once...tch...its about damn time...)

Robin stopped immediately, and began to turn red.

Nagira chuckled at her exspense.

" Awwe! Lookie here! She's red! She's blushing. How cute! Now mind to tell us just what was so damn amusing."

She looked to Amon, face still red.

" Humor me," he said.

" Nothing really...I just thought of something from home that was completely random. It made me want...doughnuts...for some
reason..."

Nagira laughed at her until he felt his ribs being jabbed by a certain brother's elbow. He turned his gaze to Amon, and sent
him a glare.

" Who says you could hit me?"

" Hmph. I didn't hit you. I merely gave you a hard tap. That's all. And no one said anything about me having to listen to
anyone if I wanted to beat you up." he stated, but not before quietly adding, " so there." (cant anyone else imagine a chibi
Amon, arms crossed, and his tongue sticking out to Nagira? I mean, seriously people...it would make me happy...)

Robin laughed again while gathering the dirty dishes, then carrying them into the kitchen.

Nagira looked over to Amon skeptically.

" You're doing this for her, aren't you?"

Amon looked over to his brother in confusion.

" What are you talking about?"

" I mean acting like this. You're making funnies for her. You're trying to get her to like you, aren't you?"

" I am doing no such thing. Why would I want her to 'like' me if I don't 'like' her? It would be pointless."

Unknown to them, the said girl was standing right in the kitchen doorway, listening to them talk. And obviously, that was
all she needed to hear. She walked back into the kitchen, clutching a towel.

She had been right. Only Touko could get close to him. He had 'liked' Touko, but never Robin. She never felt the tears
fill her eyes, nor did she hear the heavy steps of someone coming closer. She felt a hand on her back, gently rubbing in
small circles.

" Hey, what's wrong?" she heard Nagira ask.

She shook her head, tears falling silently on the counter.

" Nothing."

" Hmph. Can't lie to me. I may not have known you my whole life, but that doesn't mean that I can't tell when you're
upset."

" Then I can't tell you."

" And why not? Do you not trust me or something?"

Robin's eyes shot open in denial.

" Oh no, no. I do trust you. It's just that...well...hmmm..."

Nagira just semi-laughed at her.

" Don't worry. I get it," he said, but after some thought, added," but I think I know a way to fix your problem."
