You know, the sad thing is, I've kissed her. Numerous times in fact. But it was only to turn her back into a human from her cat form. And yet…
And yet, every time I do kiss her, even though I've done it more than once, things happen when I do. My heart still races, and there's nothing more that I want to do but continue kissing her, but I know I can't.
Besides, she's in love with that Aoyama kid, the one she saved the first time I met the girl.
She's so cute, with her in red hair in pigtails and her big brown eyes and her cute uniform with the short skirt and her naivety that is always seen in a child. Adorable girl really.
But the saddest part is not that I like kissing her. The saddest part actually is that…
I'm in love with the chick.
I know, I know, I shouldn't be in love with a little girl like her. I mean, I'm seventeen, and she's thirteen, not even in high school yet!
But I still love her.
Really, it was all an accident. I didn't mean to fall in love with her, I just… did.
I guess it all started from when I hosted that party with the pianist and I taught her to dance the waltz and fixed her bangs. And then when she caught that cold, and when she found out I was Alto. And all those times I kissed her helped too, I guess.
Although, I know my feelings shall never be returned. Like I said, she loves Aoyama. Hate to say it, but I'm jealous of him. He didn't do much except distract her and make her late for work, more than once I might add. I wish I could say I just want her to be happy and that I'm happy for her, but I can't, and I'm not.
Seeing them walk together hand and hand, her with that faint blush dusting her fair skin and him smiling dumbly at her, tears my heart to pieces. I wish she would look at me like that, and link fingers with mine.
But she can't, and she won't. She thinks I'm the devil, always making her work and work overtime and not do anything with the other girls. The truth is, I make her work overtime a lot because then it's just her by herself. I don't care if she hates it; at least I get her to myself for an hour or two every night.
I guess my fairy tale can never have a happy ending. She was the beautiful princess and I was the handsome prince, but she fell in love with the stable boy (fits Aoyama since he loves animals so damn much) and I got kicked to the curb. I have more in common with her than that boy; after all, we are both felines. But I could never change her mind.
I've always been surrounded by pretty girls whose hearts I had stolen and wanted me to be theirs. However, I have never met a girl like Ichigo Momomiya, and I probably never will.
She's so close to me, all the time, and yet she's so far away. I reach out, but my fingertips don't even brush her arm. She's so oblivious; she doesn't even see me reaching for her. Instead, she turns around and walks off, arm in arm with her boyfriend. And then I'm left alone.
My heart breaks everyday. Everyday I see her, my heart aches, and shatters when her boyfriend shows up to walk her home.
If I could be granted one wish, it would be that we could share just one more kiss. Maybe then, I could move on with my life. Though I highly doubt it.
