It had been 3 years since that day; since Seiji had confessed his love to Shizuku while they watched the sun rise over the foggy city. That day with the early morning bike ride to a romantic destination. Now they were both attending separate college's to pursue their careers. They had promised to reach their goals to show how hard they were willing to try.
Shizuku now in her late teens and still the wallflower (who still didn't know how cute she really was) had become even more of a nerd that in her youth. She was taking an English literature class for her writing career and a music course to coach her voice.
Many boys in her class and other students had complimented her looks; but she had turned each one down as she only had eyes for her middle school cutie. Before he knew it she had become a heartbreaker to all men.
Seiji was attending a separate college that was a moderate distance between hers; luckily he could take his Motorbike to meet her. His grandpa had pointed out that he had become a looker since his childhood. Many girls had shown interest and he even had his own fan club; but his heart and eyes always roamed towards Shizuku...she was his cute little nerd
Under influence from her and his grandpa he had taken up woodwork to make Violins and other items for when he married Shizuku. By learning this trade they could save money on making furniture. He was also taking music so he could improve his already talented skill on playing the violin.
Her sister was now living alone in her own apartment and had a roommate named Marin who she was in a relationship with. The two were very happy and had adorable arguments that ended in cuddles or sex.
Her mother had been quite shocked when her eldest daughter came out as a lesbian but she had supported her and simply asked her if she was happy. From there it had been good and she brought them cake or stopped by for tea sometimes.
Her father however had said nothing but disappointment was all over him that day. He hadn't spoken to her for a while now but she had said that it was her life not his. But it still hurt knowing he was only rejecting her due to her sexuality.
Now
Shizuku was sat at a table quietly watching the clouds roll by; she was in the library researching horror for her next assignment. The teacher had told them to write a ghost story based on raw emotion.
Other students would probably write a horror but she wanted to do a sad ghost story based on the sad story of a person. They were rare yes but all the more real and emotional; and she felt confident in what she could do.
Her classes were over for the day but she wanted to get a head start in her work so she could get it done faster. If she left it too late or got distracted she would have to crash cram it and make a mess of it.
Suddenly she felt her phone buzz in her pocket; she already knew who it was without guessing. It had become instinct now so she never had to guess who it was.
I thought you wanted to see me today; or was I mistaken?-Seiji x
Shizuku smiled to herself in amusement; despite being used to her nerdiness by now he still teased her a little. But because he had patience he was pretty much used to her running late sometimes. She quickly typed him a message before getting up and clearing her things away.
On my way now sorry xx
Your worth waiting for-Seiji x
Shizuku blushed fondly and her heart filled with love; no matter how long she made him wait, no matter how far apart they were, No matter what came their way; they would always want each other.
She packed away her books and writing materials and stuck them in her satchel. She then walked towards the exit quickly not wanting to make him wait any longer. As she reached the stairs she ran to make up for lost time.
As she reached the doorway to outside she tidied herself up a bit and checked her hair. The last thing she wanted was to look like a scruff when seeing her boyfriend. People would state and she would feel humiliated.
"Seiji?!" she called out quickly as she reached outside. He was nowhere to be seen; had he gotten tired of waiting and gone inside to look for her?
Suddenly she felt an arm place itself on her head "You got some explaining to do Shizuku" Seiji said firmly his tone teasing.
Shizuku sighed crossly "I know; but I wanted to get a head start on my work" she explained firmly. Getting good grades and passing her class was just as important to her as her studies; even if it was a pain in the ass.
Seiji frowned crossly "You could ask me on a study date so we could spend time together" he scolded.
Shizuku blushed; she had never really thought about doing that as it seemed more practical to do it while at college. How would she be able to study at his house? Wouldn't he just flirt and annoy her?
"Is that a no then?" Seiji sighed crossly. He really loved Shizuku but he wanted to spend more time with her in any way possible. It was hard enough studying at separate college's and living apart.
"I didn't say that!" Shizuku snapped crossly. She then blushed and covered her face shyly feeling like an idiot.
Seiji went quiet and smiled fondly; she really was adorable when she was mad and embarrassed. It made him all the more glad he had confessed when he did.
He then lowered his arm off her head and onto her shoulder. He then pulled her close and tightened his grip. She smelled like fresh air and shampoo; it was really nice.
"I'm glad to see you; I was thinking about you all day" he said quietly in her ear. Even while working in the woodwork room his mind had been on that day when she sang for him.
Shizuku smiled and gently gripped his arm fondly; he was a tease but she was happy to see him. If he wasn't in her life she would be so unhappy that she wouldn't be able to bare it any more. "I missed you too Seiji" she said tenderly her eyes gentle and filled with love.
Seiji then tilted her chin with his hand turning her face towards his; without hesitating he kissed her tenderly. She tasted just as sweet as ever; like honey and sugar mixed together.
Shizuku blushed wildly her eyes widening; she hadn't expected him to be this bold today. I mean she was used to him being affectionate but he wasn't usually this driven.
Eventually he pulled away slowly and smiled in amusement "You still taste delicious" he said fondly his eyes twinkling with mischief.
Shizuku went silent her mind blown by his seduction methods; he was the dream guy who teased you like hell but was secretly a charmer. God she was a lucky woman and she would never forget it.
"Can we get ice cream now?" she asked quietly her eyes twinkling cutely. She had gotten warm in the library and needed some relief.
Seiji smiled and lead her along gently his arm still around her shoulder "Only if I get to eat yours" he teased fondly.
