Chapter One

A/N: FLUFF! Usui's perverted POV! You have been warned *spooky music for ten seconds before turning into Cuppy Cake Song* DAMN YOU, STUPID MP3! Ahem. Sorry. Author is high on ice cubes (it's possible). Okay *serious face* I think some of you have read my 'My Sister's Keeper' fanfic… Yes, it's still on-going but I am NOT updating until I get more reviews : oh lord. This is a loonnggg A/N… Oh yea! This excruciatingly OOC…

Disclaimer: I live in Singapore and I'm a citizen here. Does that count?

"U-Usui! Manager, what's he doing here?" Misaki's so cute when she gets flustered…

"I'm working, Pres."

She stares at me adorably and I can't help but put my arms around her, "Is Misa-chan scared of working with me?" I blow in her ear for good effect.

The next second she's struggling, her face turning several shades of red.

"YOU PEVERTED ALIEN!" She screams, aiming a few punches my way.

"But I'm your perverted alien…" I whisper, feigning confusion. Out of the corner of my eye, I see a heap load of moe flowers.

She stops struggling for a few seconds to look at me, her eyes are drowning me in their golden depts. Misaki's face turns an even deeper red when I smile at her. If she stays in that position any longer, I will lose my self-control. I let her out of my arms and laugh.

"Kaichou's too cute~"

And as expected, she storms out of the changing room into the Maid Latte Café.

She walks back into the room when it's closing time.

"Need help?" I ask, hooking my fingers in the waist of her lace apron (A/N: I wanted to make him more perverted but it's only rated T, after all…).

"O-Of course on!" She unhooks it herself before hiding behind a changing screen to change.

"Don't hide, Misa-chan! I'll soon see you out of your clothes."

She throws her apron at me before screaming at me, asking me what I meant by that.

I chuckle, "I'll leave if Ayuzawa allows me to walk her home."

Black fumes fly from her before she agrees through gritted teeth. I stride out, grinning but it barely conveys how happy I am.

She makes me catch my breath, regardless of what she wears; I always feel my heart pumping faster.

"It's supposed to be a full moon tonight…" I say softly as she walks to my side.

"And?" I love how to-the-point she is.

"And I was thinking Pres and I could go to the lake and star-gaze." I continue, moving closer to her.

She looks at me with an immensely cute annoyed expression.

"We're in college now, baka." As if that could stop me from being with you.

"And I shouldn't be going out so late."

I look at her now, my eyes peeking out from my fringe.

"Then I guess it's time… To make a rebel out of a carless man's careful daughter."

Her hand in mine, I pull her before running towards the direction of the lake.

Misaki protests but I can hear the smile in her voice.

"Usuii…"

"Hmm?"

"Why do we bother with love if it never lasts?" She sounds so fragile as she leans against me.

"Love, huh? Are you confessing your love for me?" I laugh, secretly hoping it's true on the inside.

"I'm serious."

So am I.

"Because people just want to be happy… Even if it's just for a period of time." I answer, turning to face her.

"Then… Why didn't my parent's love last? I don't believe in love anymore…" One tear drop escapes from her eyes and on impulse, I move closer to put my arm around her.

Misaki moves in closer, I can feel the shuddering of her body as she cries.

It's the first time I've seen her so vunerable, so fragile…

So exposed.

"Will you believe now, pres? Because I love you."

She tilts her head up and I don't need words to know that she's starting to believe.

"Usuii... Takumi… I'm holding you to that… Because you're the best thing that's ever been mine."

I have to strain to catch her words but it was worth the effort.

"And you're the best thing that's ever been mine… Ayuzawa Misaki…"

Our heartbeats merge and I can barely tell where I end and where she begins.

It's everything I've ever wanted.

A/N: Nope, it's not over yet! It's a two-shot :D but I need reviews… Remember: Flames are for lighting aroma therapy candles, which I don't have but will need when I see that there are no reviews! Wow. They are really OOC… *tuts*
