The kiss lasted no more than five seconds, when Negi pulled back, he let out a sigh "For what its worth...I really like ya....more than I've liked anyone else In my life...but..." He moved away from her.

Chi stared at him. She didn't like where that was going. "But? I-Is this another joke?" She asked.

"Th-then....what?" She asked, her eyes locked on him, holding his gift to her chest.

"I Just...cant stay" He said, it was a lame excuse, but that was all he had to say

"What do you mean you can't stay?" She asked. "I thought you liked your job? Is there someone after you? I'm sure if you talked to Miau she could get her family to help you," Chi insisted. She was really not liking where this was going.

Negi shook his head "Its got nothing to do with someone being after me...its more of the fact that Im a ticking time bomb.." He said

Chi didn't understand what he was talking about now. "Time bomb? Negi you're making no sense," She said softly, her voice dropping as she spoke.

Negi sighed "As you youreself seen a few times already, I got a shitload of magical power..." he said "You know how people say too much is never healthy? Well In my case, too much is poison for everyone around me" He said "When I stay in one place for a long time, the air gets filled with this sort of magical gas, its impossible to see or smell, but once theres enough of it, it'll make you're whole body just stop, no breathing, no heartbeat, no thinking, you'll just become an puppet made of flesh" He said "Haven't you noticed that Even my brother keeps away from me as much as possible?" He asked

"I...just...thought he worked a lot," She said. Stupid! Stupid stupid Chi! She thought to herself. She should've given up the first time. She hadn't realized it, but tears had started streaming down her cheeks. "So...you really....have to?" She asked choking down sobs so she didn't start full out crying.

Negi twitched vissibly, he could feel his own heart wanting to jump out of his chest and smack him when he saw Chi crying "...Yah...Sorry....one year is the most time I can stay in one city...or be around certain people...and its been 9 months...I Have to leave soon." He said

"But...that still...leaves a few months," She said, it getting increasingly hard to keep herself from going into a full out sob. Negi had been the only person she had grown clothes to. Sure Miau and Carmen were her friends, but he was the only one who had ever truly taken an interest for her, done something for her, helped her learn magic, and then with her parents.... "Please..." she choked.

Negi shook his head "I'm sorry...but one year is bordering on killing everyone around me" He said "I've already stayed way too long" He said "I can return...when the gas cleares...but that takes four years..."

Chi took a step closer to him, her body less then an inch away from him. She looked up at him, biting her trembling bottom lip. She took the ribbon out of her hair and tied it around his wrist. "Four years, you have to come back," She said,.

Negi looked at the ribbon around his wrist "...and Im guessing this binds me to it?" he asked, looking at her
