This is a prequel for my story turned assassin… it would be better if you read this first.
Disclaimer: I do not own Prince of Tennis…
I was sitting by the seashore, watching the little stars twinkle. I was alone again and things were starting to enter my mind. I… I suddenly remembered the night, the last night I talked to her. A week had passed since she confessed her feelings for me. I still recall how she pulled me closer to her and how she said the words I didn't want to hear.
As I heard her say those words my whole body froze, it seems that I can't move. I didn't know what to say or do that time, I could hardly breathe. I tried to look at her beautiful eyes, but I just can't do it. I wanted to say something, how I feel but I don't know how. I was about to say it, buts he gently pulled me a little bit closer to her and looked into my eyes.
Her eyes told me how she feels, but it gave me the feeling that I was about to melt. I closed my eyes so tight and felt her warm lips brushing against mine.
Suddenly I felt a hand touching my cheek and it brought me back to my rational thoughts. And I looked up and was surprised. It… it was her, it was Setsuna. She was looking straight into my eyes with a smile. I smiled back at her and she sat beside me.
There was a moment of silence and the only sound I can hear was my heart beat.
"How are you?" she finally said.
I kept quiet for a while and then I took a deep breath.
"I'm—I'm okay, how about you?" I said nervously.
She smiled at me and said "I'm okay! It's been a week since the last time I saw you."
Then she went in front of me and gently held my face up. I saw her looking at me longingly, but I immediately looked away from her. I can still feel the weight of her stare; I don't know why I can't stand it. Then I heard her voice:
"I—I love you. Please believe me, I'm telling the truth." She said as she drew closer to me.
"But you don't know me and I don't know you either. I—I mean how can you trust me, when you had known me only a few weeks ago?" I said as I turned away from him.
"I don't care, all I know is that I really love you." she said as she sat beside me again.
"All I want to know is if you love me too. Do you love me?" she asked as she held me closer to her body.
I wanted to encircle my arms around her; I again took a deep breath and turned to her.
"Setsuna I—I think I'm—"
My phone suddenly rang; it was Snow she told me to get ready.
"I'm sorry Setsuna but I have to go. I'll just talk to you next time." I said as I stood up.
I turned around and started to run away from her; I was holding my katana, but my mind was still with her.
