Chapter One: Watched
He never knew that she loved him…
He never saw the side of her that wanted to be closer to him,
Because in her eyes,
He was her whole world…
And it tore at her heart…
Because nothing hurts quite as much as unrequited love…
Until the day that he opened his eyes,
And realized that she had been waiting for him…
All this time…
love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love
"Rimi Takaya! Pay attention! This is class, not lunch. You can save your daydreaming for later. Do you understand?" the math sensei's shrilling voice tore through Rimi's pleasant thoughts, jerking her back to the reality at hand, a reality where her beloved did not know that she was always there, always watching him.
"Yes sensei," she replied, after all, what else was she going to say? She couldn't exactly tell the sensei what she really thought of the class because she would be expelled. She heaved a little sigh, and turned her attention to the teacher, determined not to let the incident repeat.
Unbeknownst to her, the keen eyes of a classmate watched her, and noted that her notebook was filled with chibi drawings of an orange head of hair and a pair of flaming red eyes.
With a little shock, the spying eyes registered that those were pictures of him, that the girl who was the center of his thoughts had drawings of him scrawled throughout her notebook.
'What the heck! Sh-she has fe-feelings for m-me too? And all this time I thought that she didn't notice me? How could I have been so blind? I have to make this up to her,' the red-head thought, 'But how do I do this…'
love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love…love
The next day, Rimi was awoken by the sound of the doorbell insistently ringing, jarring her out of dreams of the handsome hot-tempered boy who held her affections.
Groggily, she answered the door, "Y-y-y-yes?" she asked, trying to cover up the yawn that she couldn't hold back.
"Excuse me, but is this the residence of one Rimi Takaya?" a young man with beautiful brown eyes in a mailman's uniform stood holding a clipboard and a huge bouquet of red roses.
"Um, yes. Is there anything you need?" the shocked Rimi blurted out a rather harried answer.
"This bouquet is for you, Miss Takaya. Please sign here."
"May I ask who sent this to me?" Rimi desperately wanted to know who had gone through the trouble to send her such beautiful flowers.
"I'm very sorry, Miss, but I am not authorized to tell you the name of the person who sent the roses, nor the shop it was sent from."
"Oh. That's okay. Arigatou!" Rimi was practically overflowing with excitement. She had a secret admirer! The only thing that could possibly make this any better would be if it had been Kyo-kun who had sent them to her.
And with that, he left the giddy high-school student standing in the doorway, holding the bouquet of roses that must have been very expensive indeed.
As the young mailman walked away, he thought to himself. 'That look on her face was priceless! I can't wait to tell her my true feelings.'
The young man lifted his hands to his eye as though wiping something out of them. Instead, when he took his hands away, his eyes had changed colors. Instead of the beautiful brown that Rimi had seen, they were a flaming red, a perfect match to his silky orange hair that had been disguised by the little hat that was part of his "uniform." Running his free hand through his vibrant locks, he let out a relieved sigh, then smiled a smile that would have brightened anyone's day. And so, he continued on his way home, eager to start the real day.
