Fixing broken hearts

Chapter one

"Tadase please wake up!" I slowly opened my red eyes to see Kiseki floating above me. I don't know why he is so.. so pushy to get me to wake up. He normally is still asleep or barely awake when I leave for school.

"Kiseki? What's wrong? It is not really normal for you to be this active so early in the morning." I uttered still not fully awake. It is not that abnormal for me to have a hard time getting out of bed. That mostly happens when there are breaks or sometimes just during the weekend.

"You're going to be late for school if you don't get out of your bed right now. And I as their king will not allow it that I will be late. It would ruin the respect they have for me. " Kiseki proudly proclaims as he floats up to his egg. He sits down on the edge of the nightstand it was on.

I got out of bed and walk up to my closet and grabbed the clothes I needed for that day. Which was mainly my school uniform that I had forgotten to put aside the night before. Then again I was pretty tired and wanted to get to bed as quick as was humanly possible.

Since my grandmother is still sick and I have to take care of her while trying to get all my school work done and even a little job to get some extra pocket money. Well it does really dream a lot of your energy very fast. That in combination with the fact that I haven't had a good night rest in quite a while adds to the fact I just sometimes forget things just because of exhaustion.

I am also remembered of the fights between Ikuto and me. I don't know why I feel guilty when I get those memories again but I really do and it is that biting feeling that won't leave me. It doesn't matter what I do because it keeps being there eating my soul out basically.

I didn't know what was going on back then so I couldn't have reacted in the assumption that those things were going on back then. And well my age when these events took place are a lot to blame as well. I was a toddler back then. I didn't have a big understanding of the things in the big world and well I think that is what I blame myself for.

"Tadase!" I nearly jumped as I heard Kiseki shouting in my ear. I had just finished dressing, which was quite impressive since it seemed like I was spacing out pretty badly. Kiseki almost never shouts directly into my ear but when he does it is most of the time because I either spaced out or ignored him.

"It's fine but we really need to leave now. Like you said I would be late to class." I picked up my back that was next to my desk. When I was about to leave the room I walked past my nightstand and grabbed Kiseki's egg. I left my room while putting the egg in my bag.

I then slowly made my way out of my house and started walking towards my school. It isn't that much of a walk but it sure does take some time if you don't keep up a semi fast pace. I most of the time leave the house very early just so I have time enough to walk to school in a somewhat normal pace that would not leave me to the point of dying by the time I reached the school building.

I wouldn't be helping me in any way so trying that way of getting to school out was the most efficient way for me to survive school and the after school things I need to do. Or at least that was before I had the extra job and my grandmother's condition getting worse.

I sighed lightly as I made my way down the long street. I am not lying about that or anything because the street I have to follow is extremely long and it doesn't help you with a grasp on where you are on your way to your destination. The only thing you can do is walk and hope you can see things that can help you figure out how far it is still left.

But l slowly started to see the school coming into view. I looked at the time and saw that I just had enough time to get there without having to run.

"Hey isn't that Amu over there?" I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a small yet loud voice next to me. Even if they were just asking questions they were able to just be loud without even trying to be. Which made it more painful to my ears when Kiseki really tried to shout.

I looked up to see the previously mentioned chara pointing at a girl now that far away from us. Just a little further down the long street. And to Kiseki's credit it was indeed Amu. From that distance I was just able to guess it because the four floating objects around the person. Amu has four charas so she would have fit that description.

Kiseki didn't really notice that I had already seen Amu in the distance and started tapping my shoulder. He most likely didn't notice that I did because I had given no reaction to what he had said at all.

I picked up the pace of my walk up just a little more so that I could reach her a little faster. I thought it would be nice to talk while we walked toward the school building. It is much better than just walking all the way there alone. Well not really alone but Kiseki is not really the best person to start conversations with. Most of the time he starts talking about his plans for world domination anyway and early in the morning I am really not up to those kind of stories.

It didn't take me long before I was able to catch up with Amu, which isn't really a surprise since she doesn't really walk that fast. Well she doesn't want to most of the time. Only when she is late she tends to pick up the pace but otherwise a snail could keep up with it.

"Good morning, Amu-chan I really hope that you had a good night rest." I said politely as I tapped her shoulder just in case she hadn't really heard me. It was a way to make sure that I would be able to get her attention.

Amu froze for a few seconds when she felt me tapping her shoulder but it seemed like she relaxed when she recognized my voice. I didn't mean to scare her or something like that. I rather do not want to be seen as a creep.

"Oh, good morning Tadase-kun." Amu said as she turned to me. Like I guessed she had recognized my voice. She smiled at me. "I am sorry if I happened to scare you. I don't want to seem like a stalker or anything." I apologized. Even if she didn't think that it wouldn't hurt to at least apologize for making her feel uncomfortable. Amu really didn't seem to mind but apologizing made me feel a little better.

"Good morning, my loyal subjects." Was the first thing that broke the silence that was created between them. The voice came from behind Tadase's shoulder and Amu's charas didn't have to think twice to know who was talking to them.

Hearing Kiseki meant for them that a long day of listening to his crazy plans and maybe trying to make some of them work as well.

Nothing out of the ordinary that morning.
