Calm Before the Storm.
It had been almost two years since Shuichi had left Japan.
When he left he swore he would never go back. He didn't want to be reminded of the life he left behind.
He wanted to rid his mind of the memories of the gorgeous blonde. He didn't want to think about his all knowing blue eyes, his soft, sensual lips. He didn't want to remember the love they had for eachother. He didn't want to remember how wonderful it was when they made love.
He didn't want to remember how long it took him to get Yuki to say that he loved him. And he certainly didn't want to remember how it made him feel when he finally did.
It was all just too much.
He swore he would never come back to Japan.
"Yet here I am, two hours away .." He sighned sadly, turning to look out the tiny window to his left. How could he have not come though? His father had died a few years ago, and his sister was getting married. Was he supposed to say no when she asked him to give her away? "I have a bad feeling .."
"About?" He snapped out of his daze, turning his attention to the girl beside him.
"Eh .. nevermind. It's nothing."
"It's Yuki isn't it." He ignored her question completely.
"How are you?" He placed a hand over her round belly. "I should be the one worrying about you, Rage." A soft blush tinted her cheeks, and she looked away from him.
"I'm alright." She placed a small hand overtop of his. "I'm just worried about us. What if Yuki comes into the picture and-"
"Don't be stupid! I am done with that asshole. He means nothing to me anymore!" He crossed his arms over his chest in a very childish manner.
"Okay .. sorry .." She looked away from him, running her hands gently over her swollen stomach. "What are we going to say to your family?"
"About?"
"About me. About the baby."
"I don't really know. I'm sure my mom will be happy to know I went straight." He laughed nervously, scratching the back of his head.
"Yeah .." Rages lips turned up in a fake smile. She knew the truth. She knew he was still in love with the novelist. When he wrote love songs, they weren't for her. They were for him. Eiri Yuki. She knew there was no helping it, and wanting to be with him made her able to push the thoughts out of her head. She was never going to be Shuichis number one.
They were silent for the rest of the trip.
Well? Worth continuing or not? I know I may have spelled some words wrong, but I hope it doesn't take away the quality of the story. I love reviews, so if you could .. you know! D
