Mixed and Misunderstood
Disclaimer: Mika Kawamura owns D3! not me.
It was a sunny afternoon, during lunch. On the rooftop are two teens, a guy and a girl. The girl had waist length blonde hair that glistened in the sunlight. She had shimmering emerald green eyes and a warm smile. The boy had short, brunette locks and matching chocolate brown eyes. His face was pretty straight, but whenever he caught the blonde's eyes, his face would soften, just a bit. They were sitting next to each other with a small blanket between them, facing the sun with the breeze coming now and again. The picture perfect couple??? Well, let's see.
"Ne, Kanata, don't you just love looking up at the sky?" Miyu said.
"Hm?" Kanata replied.
"It's so natural and beautiful. But you know, sometimes it looks like a painting to me." Miyu said.
"How so?" Kanata asked his girlfriend.
"Well, I feel like these fairies or something come and draw the sky everyday. They splash some blue paint on the canvas. Draw in the puffy clouds. And finally sprinkle in some sunshine, if it's a good day." Miyu said smiling.
Kanata smiled at Miyu who was looking up at the sky. She was childish at times, but sometimes she could be so...incredibly smart, or something like that. Miyu turned around to see Kanata staring at her and blushed.
"What? Is there something on my face?" she asked.
"No." Kanata said slightly chuckling.
"Then, is what I said weird?" Miyu asked.
Kanata replied with a sweet kiss on his girlfriend's cheek causing her to blush harder. He started laughing at her expression and was only returned several glares.
Miyu stared at the laughing Kanata. She loved the moments like this, when they weren't fighting and he was sweet to her, like she really was his girlfriend. I mean, of course she is, she's not pretending. It's just...sometimes he acts so cold, it feels like he's just a friend who loves to tease her. Like before, back when Ruu and Wanya were on Earth and they didn't have feeling for each other. She had always hoped that if they started going out, he would be nicer to her. But so far, it's mostly the same except for the occasional sweet moments.
Miyu went up to her boyfriend and hugged him.
"W-what?" a now blushing Kanata said.
Miyu just closed her eyes and before long, Kanata put his arms around her in a hug too. She could hear his heart beat, matching with hers. She let Kanata lift up her chin. Her own emerald green eyes met his chocolate brown ones. Kanata's eyes closed and Miyu's followed a they leaned closer towards each other. Unfortunately for the sweet couple, the bell rang signaling that lunch was over. Miyu's shoulders dropped a bit disappointed, but not for long. Before heading off, Kanata whispered into her ear making her blush. After saying what he said, he grabbed his stuff and dashed out. Miyu stood there for a while before packing up her things and heading off to class.
"We'll continue this later." Kanata had whispered.
Miyu smiled and said quietly and lovingly "Idiot."
So, as you should know, I am Miyu Kouzuki. You should already know what I look like and stuff. My boyfriend is Kanata Saionji. I've been with him for three years, since I've been twelve. Because my mother and father work for NASA in America, they left me here in Japan in the care of the Saionjis. But, Kanata's father soon left to go training in India and who knows where else. We were going to be all alone and I was so nervous, but one little accident and I decided to leave. But then all of a sudden, two aliens showed up at the temple. A blonde alien baby named Ruu and his baby sitter pet, Wanya. We were a family until they were able to return to Planet Otto. Soon after they left, Kanata and I confessed our feelings for each other and we've been going out ever since. My parents still work for NASA, so I am currently living in the Saionji residence with my ever so popular boyfriend, Kanata.
~~~o-o-o~~~
"Tadaima!" the brunette boy exclaimed taking off his shoes.
"Okaeri" I called back.
"What's for dinner today Miyu?" he asked.
Okay, so you should know, but here it is. I am and always have been a bad cook, but I am getting better. I took a couple of lessons and had help from Kanata over the years. Now you can tell apart my dishes and they're actually edible. Still burnt at times, but still getting better. At least he trusts me in the kitchen now.
"I'm making miso soup, fried chicken and pumpkin. Is that okay?" I answered.
"Yup." he said as he entered the kitchen.
There was a slight silence, so I decided to break it by saying "I'm not going to burn the food this time."
He chuckled and unexpectedly wrapped his arms around me, resting his chin on my shoulder. I blushed and I could feel my heart beating wildly in my chest. "W-what?" I said although I already knew the reason.
"I know you know 'what'." he said breathing into my ear.
My blush and heartbeat increased at the contact. His warm breath sending chills down my spine. I took a deep breath and summoned my courage. I turned around and wrapped my arms around him, as I did earlier. He mumbled something into my hair, which I could not understand at all. I looked up and started to ask him what he was saying when the space between us instantly closed. I could feel his soft, warm lips on my own. I closed my eyes and kissed him back. After a couple minutes, we came back up for air. Still holding each other, we were both blushing extremely hard. After a few breaths, I turned back to face him. My eyes met his and I drowned in his chocolate orbs. He leaned closer for another kiss and it started all over again. This time, his hands travelled up to my head and was stroking my hair. I wrapped my arms around his waist harder as he leaned back into the table. We came up for air again, but this time our foreheads were still touching. The blush was still clearly evident on our faces. We were about to kiss again, when I smelled something burning. I turned around to see that the pot on the stove was smoking.
"Crap!" I shouted as I quickly ran to turn the stove off.
Kanata went to open the windows and let the steam out. By the time the smoke was gone, the whole pot was burnt and the food wasn't even there anymore. I sighed and thought of another failure.
"Hey. It's okay." Kanata said coming up behind me "You can just remake the dish and we can let the pot sit in water for a couple of days and it'll be alright."
I knew he was right, but I felt so bad. I had to use all my courage not to burst into tears right now. I turned around and smiled at him "You're right, I guess."
Kanata reached out his hand and gently caressed my face. I know that he knows what I'm thinking and I'm glad he didn't say anything. I just hugged him and put the burnt pot in a tub of water.
"I'll get started on the dish then." I told him.
"I'll help you this time okay?" he asked, even though it was more of a statement.
"Sure." I said.
He kissed me on the forehead before opening the refrigerator to grab the ingredients. I really love him and all the sweet moments we have.
~~~angel~~~
Finally after about an hour or so, we had a delicious looking dinner on the table.
"Wow. It looks so good." Miyu said happily.
"Hmm... I think we made too much." Kanata said.
"Whatever. Hurry! Let's eat before the food gets cold." Miyu said tugging on him.
"Hai. Hai." Kanata said taking his apron off.
The two of them sat down, said 'Ittedakimasu' and picked up their chopsticks. Kanata started with the pumpkin dish while Miyu started with the croquettes.
"It's so good." they said at the same time.
"Here try it." Miyu said lifting up the croquette to her boyfriend's mouth. Kanata opened his mouth and took a bit of the croquette.
"It is good." he said.
Miyu smiled. Then Kanata lifted up the pumpkin to Miyu. "Here." Miyu smiled and took a bite of the pumpkin.
"It's so good!" she said with sparkling eyes.
It was long before the sweet couple went back to normal. Kanata started teasing Miyu again for being childish and she retorted by calling him 'mean, stupid, ignorant, etc'.
"This is just like three years ago, when Kanata and I spent our first day alone. We kept arguing, but in the end it turned out pretty nice. I finally found out his favorite dish that day. We cooked together too just like today and he kept teasing me too. I guess we haven't really changed that much."
"Oi, Miyu." Kanata said.
"Hm?" Miyu replied snapping out of her flashback.
"Are you daydreaming again?" Kanata asked.
"W-what?! No, of course not." Miyu said blushing.
Kanata laughed at Miyu's reaction "As I was saying, you should eat before the food really gets cold."
"Okay." Miyu said starting to eat again.
Kanata looked at his girlfriend eating and smiled. He had the same soft look he had in the beginning. Soon, he began to eat himself.
~~~o-o-o~~~
After they had eaten all the food and washed the dishes, Kanata went to his room to do homework while Miyu went to take a bath. She came out and told Kanata that the bath was free. She went to her room and began her homework. Fortunately, there wasn't much homework and it was pretty easy. When she finished, she went onto the porch to look up at the night sky.
The luminous moon was full tonight. It gleamed in the darkness along with a trail of glittering stars. There was a slight breeze and it was very peaceful. There wasn't much noise aside from the trees blowing in the distance from time to time.
"Hey." Kanata called.
"Oh, hey." I said.
He sat down next to me. I turned around to face him. His hair was still wet from taking a bath and he was in his pajamas, a red t-shirt and blue pants. His brunette locks were swaying in the breeze, like the tree. His eyes were fixed on the sky, although his mind seemed to be somewhere else. Perhaps, farther in the universe.
I smiled and turned back to look up at the sky.
"So, what does the night sky make you feel of?" he asked.
"What?" I questioned.
"You know, this morning you said that the afternoon sky made you feel like a picture." he said.
"Oh." I replied. I took a minute to think before answering.
"Well, the sky is still the same, it's not a different sky no matter where or when. So, it shouldn't remind me of something else and it should also be a picture. But, it's not. It looks like...a science project. With the moon and the stars hanging on strings, just dangling in the sky." I said.
"Hm...interesting." he said.
"Really? You understand?" I said turning around.
"Not at all." he stated.
My shoulders dropped at his response. "But, I think you're very...imaginative."
"What's that suppose to mean?" I asked.
"Don't take it the wrong way. I mean, it's a compliment. But like your explanation, it's kind of hard to explain." he said.
I sighed and turned back to gaze at the sky. Before long I could feel his arms around me. "I'm sorry. Are you mad?"
"No." I said leaning on him.
He kissed the top of my head making me blush. "You're very bold today." I told him.
"Hmm... is that a bad thing?" he asked.
"Well, no. But, I think if you make me blush one more time, I might explode."
"Well, we can't have that can we." he said playfully.
I turned around and hugged him "Nope. So what are you going to do about it?"
"This." he said before kissing me lightly on the lips.
After we parted I said "How does that help?"
"Well, if you blush every time I touch you and you're going to explode, that means I'm not allowed to touch you. But I can't live with that. So I will keep kissing you until you explode and then after you die, I'll follow you. And we can kiss all the time without worrying that you're going to explode." he stated.
I laughed at his explanation before giving him a kiss. "I love you so much, you know that?" I said.
"Yea." he blushed and turned away as I looked at him quizzically.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing, just...iloveyoutoo." he quickly said.
Before I could reply, I felt his lips come crashing down on mines once more. And that night, we kissed each other over and over again on the porch.
~~~the next morning~~~
"Morning Miyu!" Aya and Nanami called to their friend.
"Morning you guys." Miyu replied with a small wave.
Miyu headed towards her desk and began to take her books out. "You look really happy today, Miyu." Nanami said.
"Yeah, did something happen between you and Saionji-kun last night?" Aya said in Mikan mode.
"W-what?" Miyu said blushing.
"Ah! So something did happen!" Aya exclaimed.
"No, nothing happened!" Miyu denied.
"Hm...but your face tells us something different." Nanami mentioned.
"Nothing happened, alright." Miyu said.
The two friends continued to teased Miyu until the teacher came in.
"Alright, class. Today we have a new student joining us." the teacher said.
Miyu turned to look at Kanata, he was three seats away from her, he was listening to the teacher as usual. His chin resting on his hand. He had a mysterious, yet warm and soothing look. He looked intelligent and handsome as always.
"Ms. Kijyou, please come in." the teacher said.
In came a beautiful girl. She had long black hair and dark purple eyes. She had curves in all the right places. She had dressed pretty sporty like with a touch of girliness. She looked extremely intelligent and mature. It was hard to believe that she was 15 like the rest of them, instead of 19 or even 20.
"Hello, my name is Akira Kijyou. I've been with my father overseas in America for about seven years and now I have returned to Japan with my mother. Please take care of me." she said bowing.
There were several 'gasps' and whispers of "how pretty" and "she's hot" etc.
"Alright, , the student council president will show you around the school during lunch," the teacher said "Saionji-kun, please stand up."
Kanata stood up and bowed respectively. She gave him a sweet smile.
I could feel it. Deep in my heart, I felt a sharp pain. Something about the look she gave him told me that everything was about to be changed.
