Shaman King Fan Fiction ❯ The Masquerade ❯ Anna's decision ( Chapter 4 )

Hello people!!!!!! Here's the next chapter! I was going to make this with some other

people like Pirika or Tamao or HoroHoro but you guys wanted the next chapter so I didn't have time to make changes to this chapter. I'll see if I can make something else in the next little while. I thank all of the readers and especially the reviewers. You guys make me feel so special. Anyway, I'll cut my ramblings so you guys can read the chapter. Enjoy!

"Well…..what does it say?" Yoh asked timidly, afraid of triggering Anna's anger. Anna

secretly smiled to herself at her fiancé's kawaiiness (AN: Sorry for the An but is this

even a word? ^_^;;;;;) but she hid it well. "Well it seems our dear Ren is celebrating his

16th birthday. We're invited for a little vacation in China in the Tao mansion. I don't

know how long though. It didn't say. The Tao family sent their private jet to pick us up

tomorrow. So I suggest you start packing. I'll do the same thing" Anna said. "Alright! We

get to go to China!!!!" Yoh stopped celebrating when he saw the look on Anna's face. He

knew that look. "Yes Anna. I'll go start packing" he said quietly. Anna smiled. She tried

to keep it back, but still, a ghost of a smile appeared on her face. Yoh could tell she was

really excited even if she hid it very well.

ANNA'S POV

*sigh* Why do I even bother?! I know that he can see right through my façade. But I

have been like this for as long as I can remember. Should I continue being like this?

Or…..or maybe I should stop and change? Heh…I can just see their reactions

when…no…IF I change. I'll think about it…Maybe…maybe I should….ask Yoh?

Yeah….it's not what I would normally do and Yoh might be surprised…or maybe he

won't? Whatever. I'll ask him later after I finish packing.

~~~~~end of Anna's POV

So after she finished packing, Anna stood up and knocked on Yoh's door. She heard a

muffled `Come in!' from Yoh. She hesitated for a second, then bit her lip in

determination and opened the door. She saw Yoh bent over his bag, his lips tight and his

tongue sticking from the side, obviously intent on finishing is packing so as not to anger

her. Anna smiled slightly, and for a second, she faltered and wondered, for about the

millionth time that day, if she really should go through with this. But the same icy

determination shone in her eyes as she walked to Yoh's bed. Yoh, surprised, yet relieved

at the same time that Anna came in quietly and didn't yell at him, looked up at her,

confusion, relief, and surprise dancing in his eyes. Anna smiled. Nothing held back. Her

first visible genuine smile. Yoh's jaw dropped. His elbows, which he was using to prop

himself up so that he could look at Anna faltered and he dropped to the floor. This

shook him out of his stupor. He stood up, brushed off his clothes, and looked back up

at Anna slowly, his eyes as wide as saucers. He couldn't believe that Anna actually

wanted him to see her smile!
