Anime High School

Anna continued to stare at the ceiling.

 

"are you okay? do you want me to heal your injuries so you don't have to stay in this bed. are you--" orihime stopped as she saw ichigo, "i am sorry, should i leave?"

 

"No...It's fine... I'll wait..."

 

"are you sure were you talking to her?" orihime asked cautiously. she didn't wait for a reply she felt guilty for anna's current state, "Anna, please let me heal you, i need you to tell me i can, if you don't i'll heal you anyway, i just think it is nicer to ask for permission"

 

"I don't need to be healed..." Anna said. "I'm fine..." she continued to stare up at the ceiling.

 

"Oriheme if you don't mind, I'd like to talk with Anna for a minute. I'll tell you when I'm through so you can heal her okay?"

 

"okay, i'll uh just go," orihime said awkwardly walking out the door

 

Nami yawned looking around, "I should have had that jewel in my hand and ran off when I could. What the heck was that thing anyway?"

 

Anna closed her eyes and sighed. "What do you want?" she asked him.

 

"Anna...I can't stand to have you mad at me...I'm sorry. Please forgive me..."

 

Anna opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling again. "Why? Is it just to save yourself from being destroyed? Or is it because you really want forgiveness from me?"

 

"Anna I could care less about being killed. I care more about you than anything...I just want your forgiveness..."

 

Anna looked up at him with wide eyes, and then shook it off and looked at the ceiling. "I am sorry, but I can't do that... if I create a bond with the humans... I will only have that much more trouble in destroying them..."

 

"But..Anna..." Ichigo started to cry. "I love you...."

 

Anna closed her eyes as a tear silently fell down her face. "Please, stop crying..." she pleaded as more tears ran down her face. "I... hate to see you like this... but I am sorry... this is how it must be..."

 

"Anna...I...I.." Ichigo left the room abruptly, crying.

 

Oh god... Anna thought as Ichigo started to leave. "Wait!" she shouted as she jumped out of bed and tried to run after him, but fell to the floor as she shouted out in pain... she forgot that she was injured.

 

Ichigo heard a scream when he left the room and returned to see Anna lying on the floor. Ichigo silently helped her up and layed her gently back in her bed.

 

"Ichigo I...I'm sorry!" she said. "I forgive you! I do!" she shouted as tears ran down her cheeks.

 

Ichigo looked up from the floor and stared at Anna. Finally he smiled. "Thanks Anna I forgive you too, for everything..."
