Daily Routine (Chiyo/Open)

[Miyazawa Chiyo]

Chiyo groaned at the sound of her alarm clock. She turned towards her night table reaching for it. She hit the offending item sighing in peace. Her peace lasted for five seconds before she heard a scream in her head. Now that would sound strange for anyone else, but it was normal for Chiyo. She sighed falling back into bed. She placed an arm over her eyes, "What's wrong Hikari?"

"You don't know do you?"

Chiyo sighed, "I don't know if you don't tell me. Now what's wrong?"

Hikari glared "You had another damn dream about HIM."

"Who Hikari?"

Hikari growled, "You know damn well who I'm talking about."

"Hikari just tell me please it's early in the morning and I don't feel like thinking yet."

"Who do I hate more than anyone in the world?"

"You hate alot of people. Who are we talking about?"

"Chiyo don't act dumb."

"No one is acting. Will you just-"

"Tomo! You had a dream about Tomo!"

Chiyo swallowed at the mention of her ex lover. She removed her arm placing it at her side. She swallowed again, "What did we do in the dream?"

Hikari glared, "What you normally do with him, her, or whatever it is."

Chiyo blushed lightly turning to her side. "That's private Hikari you know that."

"You're pretty loud Chiyo. I don't think it would stay private for long." Hikari said.

Chiyo's blush deepen as she fiddled with her sheet. "Hikari you know I can't help how I sound."

"No, but you can control your dreams. It was torture watching you two together. I don't understand why you dream about him. I don't get it he killed you. He killed you!" Hikari exclaimed.

"I know, but I understand why he did it. Why do you have to bring up past events Hikari?"

"Maybe you'll stop having these dreams if I do. I don't like that traitor. He should die in the slowest most painful way."

"Hikari you know I'm not going to agree to any idea you have. If he is so evil why did he give me custody of the twins?"

"Because he owed you that much for the hell he put you through. I want-"

"I know what you want. You won't stop telling me your elaborate ways to kill him. You know I'm not going to agree to it. I don't know why you tell me."

"Because I know all it will take is just one look from that thing and you're going to fall over your feet. You know it would happen Chiyo."

Chiyo sighed she knew Hikari was right. She didn't want to admit it, but she was right. She was human now. She shouldn't think about him anymore. She shouldn't have any memories of him, but things didn't work out like she planned. That trend continued into her new life. She traced the patterns on her comforter. She could feel Hikari's conflicting emotions. Hikari didn't like to make her sad, but she loved to be right. It bothered Chiyo every time.

She turned over noticing the red numbers of her clock. Her eyes widened at the time. She sat up rubbing her eyes "Damn it I didn't know it was that late. I have to get the girls ready for school."

"Oh yeah you do well we're going to talk about this later." Hikari said in a tone that left no room for discussion.

Chiyo sighed, "I know Hikari I know." She got out of bed scratching her head on the way to the bathroom. She knew Hikari would talk about it until she was blue in the face. It wasn't her fault she thought about Tomo from time to time. He did have the biggest impact on her life besides Setsuna and Satori. He's the father of her children yet Hikari wondered why she worried about him.

She shook head she didn't have time to think about that now. She had a list of things to do. She didn't have time to argue with Hikari.

Chiyo didn't know why she continued to dream of the past. It didn't make sense to her, but that wasn't unusual. Even as an angel events happened that Chiyo couldn't explain. She wished Hikari would stop screaming though.

I don't even know what you see in him. He's pale, disgusting, and make you do things that surprise me!

Chiyo sighed while she brushed her teeth. Hikari was good background noise for her morning routine.

I can't believe you actually said those things. Do you take yoga? It's the only way you could bend that way.

Chiyo washed her mouth, turning up to the mirror. She saw Hikari glaring back at her. Chiyo didn't know if it was a hallucination or what. She decided not to tell anyone. She knew it wouldn't work in her favor. Chiyo didn't want anything to break apart her family. However, Hikari made it difficult to find a date.

Why would you do that?

Chiyo pulled her hair back to wash her face.

I can't believe the rope tricks you learned was for that!

Chiyo washed her face before turning on the shower. She had to finish quickly or the girls would be late.

The things you said. I'm amazed of the phrases you created and your answers.

Chiyo finished her quick shower walking out the bathroom to dress for the day. She put on a simple white button down with black pants, tying her hair with a dark blue ribbon. Chiyo smiled at the mirror before addressing Hikari.

"Are you done now?"

Not really, but I can take a break for now. We have to get the girls ready for school.

Chiyo sighed softly. At least she would get a break. "You're right I don't want to them to be late." She walked out the room, going to the room across the hall. Chiyo opened the door, smiling at the sleeping figures in the room.

"Girls, it's time to get up."
