I am the Fire

Chapter 5

ShadowMoon POV:

My mind was racing with its thoughts. Should I tell him? Why would I tell him? Och my sweet Satan, why he is so close? Come on, pull back your ass together. Nothing good happened to me here, so why don't get the fuck out of here? Pretend it's a fresh start. Och good, he's pulling back. Well, fuck it, I've got nothing to loose. Nothing keeps me here after all.

"I still want to go with you." I said and like something heavy was taken from my chest at that moment. I looked at Sodo and he looked...different. Hard to say what's changed but even air in the room seemes to be more breathable. I shook my head and looked around. "Now I understand why three days." I said completly regaining my clear mind. "Still, there's not much to pack anyway. If you help me, we'll finish in no time." There wasn't much more to pack. Rest of the books, some jewelery. I don't have much things I'm attached to.

3rd POV:

They worked in silence mostly. Organized few boxes, packed them. ShadowMoon looked around and left with last box without regret. Sodo put all her things into a car and they left to meet the band.

In hotel everyone waited to finally greet her officially. They were less loud than yesterday. Probably Copia told them to be. They all waited in line to introduce themselves and all sat down. Copia was talking to Sodo in the corner of the room and for a moment he looked troubled when Sodo was talking to him with a lot of concern at his face. Copia placed his hand at Sodo's shoulder and noded. With that he approched ShadowMoon.

"My little ghoul told me that you were suprised with the news that you'll be staying with us in the Church, are you sure you're fine with that? I can assure you that you gonna love it and we will do everything we can to make it easy for you. Yes, we should tell you from the beginning about it, but it slipped my mind so forgive me that inconvinence."  Copia looked at ShadowMoon with curiousity.

"No, it's fine. I was suprised but after further consideration I find it a good thing. I'll be more than happy to move and stay there with you. I'm ready to that journey." ShadowMoon said without hesitation.

Sodo's POV:

We arrived at the hotel and first thing I had to do was to talk with Copia. Not just about that she was completley unaware about moving to Sweden with us. I wanted to ask him to let me take care of her. I wanted to be there for her whatever she needed. Maybe, just maybe she'll open up to me. I didn't tell him 'bout my guess that something was going on. That was my part to find out. I just told him that we spent time together and probably she'll be more comfortable with me. He agreed without second thought and that was the easier part of the plan. He walked up to her to make sure she's fine and I zoned out to think. I shooked off from analayzing everything she said when I heard my name.

"Sodo! For the last time! We're leaving in a moment. Have you packed you things already?" Swiss yelled at me.

"For fucks sake, stop yelling, I'm right here, I hear you. Yes, I did pack. We can leave." I said slowly. Damn, why he's always the loudest one.

3rd POV:

Within next 20 min everyone was ready to leave at the airport. ShadowMoon was mostly quiet and she just answered when someone had a question. She looked troubled and that didn't skipped Sodo's attention. While waiting to enter an aircraft he approched her.

"Are you afraid of flying?" He asked leaning on the wall just beside her.

"No, it's not that. I've never been on a plane before but it's not that." She said turning her head to him.

"So what is it? I'm quite good listener." Sodo looked at her focusing on her face.

"Do you think I shouldn't take that job? You said earlier that you shouldn't offer me that job." She said quietly. Sodo automaticlly stiffed. He turned to her and gently touched her arms.

"Forget what I said back at your house. I didn't mean it. I was little annoyed. I'm a fire ghoul, it's easy to make me annoyed and sometimes I get annoyed just because something's not going according to the plan. It wasn't your fault and you'll do wonderful job." He replied with concern in his eyes. If only ShadowMoon could see that...

A/N:

I'm trying to write something every day, but it not always works, sorry for that. I guess it will be longer story than I planned to be, according to my urge to write every detail of the scene that comes up in my imagination so again, sorry for that. It lives it's own life in my head.
