Crazy Little Alien
Makoto walked into the dim litted, purple colored room. He looked down and saw a futon rolled up on the floor with legs sticking out of it. He smirked and walked delicately to it, as if not to disturb a young, sleeping child.
It's been 3 years since he came to live with Meme-san and her beautiful daughter Erio. He had to admit, living with them was no picnic. But, he loved them anyway. Well, one of them the most. The first time he saw her, he really thought she was an alien. Her beautiful long, blue locks, to her soft glowing skin, to her deep sea, sparkling eyes. He had done everything to make here happy. To taking her on bike rides, to watch and studying the stars her, to just spending time with her. He remembered the day he asked her to be his girlfriend. They were looking at the stars on the back porch and it was a perfect time to ask her. She actually looked happy. Not to mention a little scared. He asked her if she ever had a boyfriend, or a similar experience, and she said that she had always been scared of getting hurt like all of her other friends. He remembered that he held her small, soft, fragile hands into his, looked her straight in the eyes, and said to her.
"I will never hurt you. If I ever were to hurt you I wouldn't be able to live with myself. You are the best thing that ever happened to me. I promise that I won't force into anything. If you don't want to do something, I will understand. Take my word for it, because Erio, you are my true love. My one and only love. So please, be my girlfriend." He waited, looking at in her eyes to find the answer.
"Cousin loves me. I love him too. Yes Makoto-kun, I'll be your girlfriend. MAKOTO-KUN!" She lunged over and hugged him and kissed his forehead.
"I knew you'd love it." and he leaned in to kiss her pink lips. The were soft, supple, and perfect. Then he was surprised that she kissed him back. When they separated Erio was crying tears of happiness. She came for hugged and that's how they spent the last minutes of their freedom.
He smiled at the memory. Today was their anniversary and he wanted to do something special. He was 18 and Erio was going to be 18 in a few months. This special gift was going to last forever. He had the ring ready. He made and agreement with Meme-san and she agreed to let them live there like they where siblings and her children. He had a really great job as a prestigious businessman and chief executive officer in his father's corporation. He was a very bright child in his early years so that is why he had a job so early in his life.
"Erio, are you awake?" He asked. He watched how she gracefully got up and pulled the futon off. He smiled warmly at her.
"Cousin, do you know what day it is?"Erio asked.
"Of course, my darling. And I have a surprise for you. But before that how would you like a bike ride over to the restaurant?" He asked.
"Mmmhh hhmmm. Let me just get ready. Okay?"
"Alright, I'll be waiting for you in the living room." Then he left the room.
Erio hurried to get ready. She fixed her hair into a two braids and arranged them into a style that looks like a crown around her head. He put on some makeup and got dressed into a pink shirt and a blue frilly skirt. She walked to the living room feel a little nervous, but later felt comfortable after he gave her a reassuring smile. They walked out hand in hand and Made their way to their restaurant.
