The deadly date
Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters except for Tina
The next day was February 1 and when I woke up, I saw that it was snowing. Sebastian was gone but I saw that there were rose petals leading from the bedroom down the hall. I didn't know where they led so I decided to put my red dress back on (seeing it was the only other scrap of clothing beside my wedding dress I owned. Akito had burned everything else.) I followed the petals down the hall and into the breakfast lounge area. There he was sitting at one of the tables waiting for me.
He was still in his pajamas, which was just pajama bottoms with kittens wearing Santa hats and playing with balls of yarn. It was the wrong month to be wearing that but it was cute I sat across him there was a stack of pancakes in between each of us. "Did you sleep better?" he asked me his voice so silky. I was surprised I thought he was going to just forget about the marriage afterwards and go back to treating me the same way he used to. I nodded in the early morning light. I had never seen him in anything else than suits but still he was still very sexy.
"I had a good sleep but why are you up so early?" I asked thinking that I shouldn't question him. "I made you breakfast I hope you don't mind?" He told me I smiled this was a side of him before it was cute. I wanted it to last even though I knew that by the time we got back to London he would be back to the same Sebastian.
I took a plate and took three pancakes and noticed that they were chocolate filled and were in the shape of a heart. Aww ,that was sweet he just makes me want to love him more. "I'm sorry for almost shooting you last night." I said almost mumbling the words. Sebastian looked at me worriedly he never looked at me like that. "I don't mind you weren't the first to aim a gun at my head and you certainly won't be the last. You better though?" He asked me I wasn't sure whether or not I would be ok I was mentally scarred for the rest of my life and would remain that way until my death.
I ate my pancakes and he took some as well. Other than last night at the wedding reception when we fed each other food, I had never seen him food before. I don't know why I found this very interesting to watch but I paused and watched for a moment, then when he saw me looking I looked down at my plate and cut up some more of the pancakes. I dumped a lot of syrup or it came out fast all over my pancakes. I didn't speak until I was finished with my food, I wanted to be polite to my new husband. "so um….." I started almost forgetting the question I was going to ask him. He looked up at me and of course I blushed. "I've never seen you eat before do….do demons even get hungry." He wiped his mouth.
"Not necessarily, we think of food and sleep as a luxury. But since I'm your husband I can act a little more human." I shook my head and put my hands up "don't you ever change Sebastian you're perfect just the way you are. I love you but you don't really care do you?" this time he came over to me and hugged me. He then started to kiss my neck and then worked his way up my body. This gave me goose bumps but I don't want it to stop. Just as I thought this he stopped. I looked at him confused.
"why don't you finish eating and then I want to take you out ok meet me at the lobby door in ten minutes." He said leaving me alone as he went back up to our room. I finished my stack of pancakes and followed him up to our room to brush my teeth when I realized I didn't have any toiletries to brush my teeth with.
"can we go shopping this morning I'm quite short on supplies since you rescued me from that place…." I asked as I heard Sebastian pause dressing. He knew I was thinking of the dark room at the main Sohma house and I could feel his concern.
"whatever you want my dear, I will follow you till the end you know that." He came into the bathroom his rock hard abs exposed. I felt a nosebleed coming on. He kissed me on the cheek and then went back to put his shirt and coat on. He put one of his coats on me to cover up my shoulders.
We went down to the lobby door as the others were waking up. Sebastian took me by the wrist and lead me out the door, before the other servants could discern who we were. We went out into the cold weather, but I felt nice and warm next to his tall warm body. He took me into town and we went shopping for some things that I was missing, we dropped the things I had bought back at the lobby and went out on a real date.
We walked around town all day and I asked him many questions about him, because he knew a lot about me but I didn't know a lot about him, which was surprising since we lived at the same manor for two years now. He took me to a restaurant at the top of a tall building. We went into the elevator with the crowd and pushed the button to go up.
The elevator went up very fast and then suddenly it just stopped. The elevator shook and I bumped up against Sebastian who held me up. "What was that why did we stop?" I asked questioningly some of the others that were in the elevator were looking around wonderingly for an exit. Some of them had become quite scared as was I. Then the elevator jerked again and I felt we were going down extremely fast. Sebastian grabbed me by the arms and pulled me up the emergency exit.
"Going up." He said jokingly and then I looked up and saw that he had his black wings opened. I looked at him dumfounded at the magnificent black wings, he had saved me. I looked down shocked that all those people in the elevator would soon be dead when they hit the bottom. Sebastian flew us up until he got to the door that was the opening to the restaurant. He kicked it open and let me down. Then on his way down to hide his wings from human sight, not that he needed to they already saw, he slipped and this time I caught him by the wrist. I helped him up but I almost fell myself, someone had caught me around the middle and together we both helped Sebastian helped.
I turned around to see that it was Hatsuharu that had helped me, I hadn't seen any of the Sohmas since last night and then I saw that Haru was with his girlfriend Izumi (that's Rin by the way). "Oh, Haru h-How are you doing this afternoon? What are you d-d-doing here?" I asked somewhat shocked that he was here. The place was crowded and everyone was staring at us.
Sebastian stood up and brushed himself off, and then looked around, "alright we're fine, but the elevator fell down so if there's stairs around here I suggest taking them on your way back. There's nothing to see here go back to your business." Unfortunately everyone in the restaurant didn't understand English except for the two Sohmas. This time Sebastian said it in Japanese and everyone tried to go back to what they doing. Finally Haru told me that he was here with Izumi on a date, this was her favorite restaurant.
We, I mean I decided that we should join them on a double date. "So Meyrin how is married life going so far?" Asked Haru who didn't look particularly interested in the question. "It's going fine so far, is Akito still upset that I married Sebastian and not Hatori?" I asked a little afraid that the man of my new fears would come after me. I felt Sebastian squeeze my hand lovingly mentally telling me that he would protect me from my fears. "Yah I guess, I don't pay attention to Akito's fits too much he doesn't like girls or cats, and since you're both he just doesn't like you. But he got sick after the wedding and hasn't come out of his room. We all felt bad for you when he beat you but we can't do anything when he gets mad, we're all abused by him, you're lucky in a way Meyrin, you get to get out of this place." Our food came and we fell silent for a while, I looked over at Sebastian who looked upset as well about what Haru said. It's sad to hear the way Akito treats his family even though he looks younger than I am.
He didn't even touch his food but looked into his tea cup the entire meal. "I'm glad that you're happy with him Meyrin, you too look cute together." Rin said smiling, she's usually not a nice person but she seemed to become attached to me somehow, ever since the wedding. She's a really good girl but no one sees it but Hatsuharu the perfect boy for her. After we were done eating Hatsuharu and Rin left down the stairs, after saying goodbye. Sebastian wanted to show me a platform outside that over looked the city before we left. I followed him outside. He pointed out some unique looking buildings and we made fun of them. I loved this, this was a good date despite the elevator following down.
Then the ground from under out feet were rumbling and violently shaking. Without warning the rail I was hanging onto snapped and I fell forward falling off the building.
