Forgotten (Dreamy days in West Tokyo fanfic) [ON HOLD]

Prologue (the guys' pov)

Every ~~** means a change of a person's POV, since it's way easier this way.

In the flower shop, I was arranging flowers, as usual.

"Haruki, I'll take two pink roses!" some girl yelled from outside. A lot of girls are always here, girls sure do love flowers. (Yup, our Haru is always clueless of how popular he is with girls)

Turning around, I spot two girls outside on the sidewalk passing by, and I made eye contact with one of them before she looked away. She looks familiar. I think as I want to walk up to them, but I was swarmed with orders.

"Haru-chan, can I have a pack of daisies?" another girl asked, and when I looked up again those two girls were gone.

~~**

Ichigo here. I was watching a TV show at the back kitchen when I heard the bell chime.

Groaning, I walk out and see two girls around my age leaning at the cakes, speaking English. Are they foreigners? But they look Japanese. 

The sight of one of them drooling at the sweets felt disturbingly reminding, losing my patience, I called out to them.

The one with the white, pink and turquoise hair froze and just stared at me with her glowing electric crimson eyes.

The other one, her hair dyed into gradiant shades of blue. from zaffre, to azure, to deep sky blue to a light shade of pink at the top. Their hairs are crazy! She ordered eight types of sweets, her glittering amber-colored eyes darting around the shop. 

~~**

Ryuzo here. Just got off school, I was walking back to Hatta Produce, when I hear Annan yelling. 

This guy's always been a troublemaker, but I know he's a good person. I arrive just in time to see him tackle a teenage girl down and shouting 'pay for your food' in her face. Even though it's wrong to dine-and-dash, he's taking things too far.

When I look closer, I saw another girl standing beside her, grinning. Just when I thought that girl was the cause of why this one got pushed down, Annan yelled into the poor girl's face.

I was just about to throw him off of her, but the other girl yanked him by the neck and send him flying into a phone pole. What incredible strength for a girl. I thought first. 

Stepping out, I ask the girl if she was alright, but she froze up at the sight of me. 

~~**

...I just got off school and am in the corner of Black Ship reading the new Shonen Hop, when I looked up, it was to Haruki's greeting, I spot two girls behind him and Ryuzo.

"...who's that?" I asked, then it hit me. The shy little duck who's always with the gang since we're...i dunno...four? three, even? 

"Takeshi Yuno, do you remember him?" Haru introduces me.

But she looks like a...a gangster, even more than Ryu does. I remember from when we were kids, Mitsuko was little and decent and naive. What happened to her?

~~**

Carrying some cakes while walking into Black Ship, I was greeted by a shout, "Whoa, it's the jerk from that bakery!"

"Ichigo..?" one fo those girls repeated my name questionally.

"Mitsuko Takahashi?" I wonder out loud, that little girl who always followed me around, even though I was really mean to her at that time. She loved cakes, I figured that's why she liked to come to the shop and find me, I'd make a few cookies for her sometimes.

She looked distant as she waved to me cluelessly. Does she not remember me? 

~~**

I sat quietly by the counter the entire time the two girls met everybody, when Miyuki-chan started talking about a 'girl' named 'Richy', I knew she was talking about me. Nobody ever made it clear to the girls that I AM A BOY. 

She had a really cute look on her face as she stuttered, I felt like teasing her, under natural habits, I gave her a peck on the cheek. What i didn't expect is for her to suddenly turn bold and do that. Right after she does, she collapsed in my arms. I quickly lay her over to the sofa.

"Hey, where's that cake gobbler?" Ichigo said, "she might know what's going on with this one, I'll go find her." he rushed upstairs, I sat down beside Miyuki's resting head. 

~~**

Rushing upstairs to find Mitsuko, I don't know what to call her by, and am too embarassed to shout her name. 

"Yo," I say when I saw her in a bedroom with a bunkbed in it, this'll probably be hers and Miyuki's room. She turned around and looked alarmed.

She looked really tense as I walk up to her, "relax." I say in a bored tone and explained to her what happened down there.

"Oh...." she murmured, "we were both in different accidents, and now we both have conditions."

"So...you can't remember anything under 15...?" after she briefly introduced her problem to me, I ask, and she slowly nods, still making eye contact.

Then what about our promises? She forgot all of them? Before I let a depressed expression show, I said to her: "let's go back down, she's probably woke up by now."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

888 words (lucky numbers! ha!)

I think I already gave too many hints... °/^/°

and yes this is the last prologue the next update will be the first chapter.

I've read all of their routes except Ryuzo and Johji, so I'm not sure what Ryu would think.

Thanks for reading
