Fire and Ice

13. How it started

"You can be the next big thing."

I don't even know what that means. But I don't even care. I looked at the scars on my arms.  They faded, but they were still there. I didn't want people to think I was hurting myself, or my parents were hurt me. I've got a photo shoot in 20 minuets with Sora, so I just put bandages around my arms, my wrist to below my shoulder. I could say it's a fashion statement or some crap. 

I put my tank on and rode my skateboard to his office. Fanta was at the door waiting. She had on a black dress. There was another girl right next to her. She had purplish hair and black tips. She was wearing a light orange jacket, white shirt, and blue shorts. "You remember Kami, right? Your assistant?" I nodded. Then I remember. "Hey, uh, is it necessary for me to have body guards?" I asked. "Mr. Ricko wants all his clients to be safe, he cares deeply." She lead me into the room. "There's your outfit for the day, we'll be outside. I put on a black leather jacket, light blue shirt, and white shorts. 

We went outside for the pictures. I kept the same outfit on, just in different places. "I'm loving this, alright, keep it up." Hanto said. "Cute." "Shy." "Innocent." "Evil."  "Prefect." People around us started. "Wow." I little girl with blue hair said. "Isn't she pretty?"Kami asked. The little girl nodded and smiled. "Is she famous!?" A teenage boy asked. "She's gonna be." Orimo responded. 

After that was over, I went to the coffee shop. I drank my Hazelnut coffee and read The Hostage's Daughter.  "Thought I'd run into you here." I looked up and saw a pink hair girl. "Hey Mina." I put my book down as she sat in front of me. "You weren't at school yesterday. Did something happen?" She asked. "No, I was with my mom. And I got to see UA. I can see why you wanna go there." She didn't say  anything. I thought she'd be happy, buy she was kind of sad. "Kiri didn't talk to me at all yesterday. He won't respond to my text or calls. Did I...do something wrong?" 

Way to let her have it E. 

She really did care though. How did a girl as sweet as her end up dating a total sum bag like Reo. "It's that awful boyfriend you've got. How did you guys start dating?" She looked even sadder. "Well, he was bullying these kids, like actually hit them. And I told him to stop. He said he would only stop if I dated him. And, here we are." I put a tight grip on my tube. You idiot. If you hadn't gotten sick, you could have stopped that. I let go. "Just brake up with him."

"I tried, but he said he would kill me." I rolled my eyes. "Let someone try to kill you. If he puts one finger on you I'll be the one killing. Tears ran down her face. I've never seen her cry. I put my hand into hers. "I promises, you'll never cry again. Alright?" She nodded. She whipped your tears. "So! What's with the bandages?" I looked at my arms. "Oh! Uh...fashion statement." Her smile returned. "It's so cool! You got to go to UA! Lucky, I'm so jealous!" I laughed. I looked back at my arms. What is happening to me?
