Stolen

"Kishinuma!"

Ayumi waved from far away, running towards him. Yoshiki smiled and waved back. They've been closer to each other since the nightmarish incident that has happened a month ago. Ayumi had some breakdown, but thankfully Yoshiki was able to calm her down every time. Ayumi was grateful to Yoshiki, and Yoshiki was happy Ayumi was closer to him now.

"Hey, what's up?"

"There's a test coming up in a week and I need to study. Wanna come to the library with me?"

Yoshiki sighed, grin still on his face.

"You never change, do you?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Nothing! Heheh. Nothing..."

"Anyways, are you coming or not?" Ayumi pouted.

It was Saturday, and Yoshiki thought Ayumi called him to hang out or something. Of course, this was half expected, but he didn't really like the quiet and boring library.

"Fine. Let's go."

"I know this small library around here. Only a few people goes there so hopefully it'll be empty today!"

Yoshiki gulped, a little nervous. Alone? In a library with Ayumi? Ayumi grabbed Yoshiki's wrist and dragged him.

"Come on, why are you delaying your steps for?"

"S-sorry."


They opened the door to the entrance. They sat on a table and Ayumi unpacked her studying stuffs. Yoshiki just watch her organize her books.

"You sure do study hard."

"Why don't you?"

"Eh, studying isn't my thing."

Ayumi puffed her cheeks and turned her head to the books. Yoshiki chuckled, seeing Ayumi's cute face.

'Heh, at least I can see her like this...'

There was no one in the library like Ayumi expected, so it was nice and quiet. It was early in the morning so Ayumi felt a bit drowsy since she didn't sleep early last night. Yoshiki looked at the bookshelves looking at some interesting books.

'Getting Out of Friend Zone'

'How to Propose'

'Loving Somebody'

'Getting Married & Making a Family'

Yoshiki realized he was looking at weird kind of subjects so he awkwardly backed away from that section. Instead he went to the music and art section.

'Guitar Practice'

'Guitar Songs for Pros'

'Art Basics'

'Famous Artists'

'Anatomies'

He shuddered at the word 'anatomy'. The anatomical model almost killed Ayumi in the school... He'd never forget about that school. On the other hand, it brought the friends closer together. Maybe the charm did work, only in a unwanted way.


Yoshiki went back to the table Ayumi was studying. He realized she was asleep, her head leaning on the books. He took a seat next to her and glanced at her. He lightly poked her, but she didn't wake up. She seemed to be peaceful.

'She's not having any nightmares anymore... That's good.'

His hand reached to her face to swipe the hair that was slightly covering her eyes. Then he stopped, worried that she might wake up.

He leaned his head on the table too, facing Ayumi. Ayumi was breathing silently. Yoshiki examined her face. Her dark blue hair, big eyes now closed, asleep, her pretty little nose, and her lips... The lips he always dreamt of shutting it up with his own every time she taunted him.

'I don't think I'll have a chance...' He thought, still looking at her.

He slightly poked her cheek, checking if she was fully asleep. Yoshiki moved in a tad bit closer.

'What if she never notices me..? Would I have to wait forever?' He thought. 'Now's a chance...'

'No, what am I thinking? This is wrong.'

The battle Yoshiki was having inside him was almost endless.

'She wouldn't know, right? Even if this is her first... kiss... She won't realize.'

Yoshiki leaned in closer, faces centimeters away. Yoshiki felt a fuzzy feeling filling his chest. He automatically closed his eyes and made his lips meet hers. He held it there, only for a few seconds.

He backed out from her warm and soft lips. His wish was finally granted. Yoshiki knew that his feelings didn't needed to be returned nor he needed to confess, but he at least wanted to remember something. He didn't want to dream over it forever. He just stole Ayumi's first kiss.

'I'm sorry, Shinozaki... But what can I do?'

Yoshiki felt a bit embarrassed by staying there, so he got out of his seat. The air was chilly, so Yoshiki took his jacket off and covered it on Ayumi. Then he went back to the bookshelves.


Ayumi woke up from the warmth she felt. She saw Yoshiki's jacket on her.

"When did I fall asleep?" She asked herself.

What had happened? She was studying and she just laid her head down on the table. She fell asleep and she remembered someone was poking her. Then soft warmth on her lips... Kishinuma?!

Ayumi went to the bookshelves and saw Yoshiki.

"You woke up." He said softly.

"Yea, I just woke up now," she said. "Let's go, I don't think I'm in a condition to study."

"Sure."

They were walking on a street, heading back home.

"Hey, since we didn't really do anything.., should we get something to eat?" Yoshiki suggested.

"Sounds nice. What do you want to eat?"

"I dunno... Let's just get something to drink."

Ayumi nodded. They went into a cafe and ordered the drinks. They sat on a table, waiting for their drinks.

"Jeez, Shinozaki, how much have you been studying? You looked pretty tired."

Ayumi couldn't snap out of the daze. Yoshiki had kissed her when she was asleep. He stole her first kiss! She never expected him to... be interested in her... She didn't get it. Since when?

"Shinozaki? Are you okay?"

"Kishinuma."

"Hmm?"

"Why did you kiss me?"

Yoshiki felt like his head got hit by a heavy stone. He stared at her blankly. He opened his mouth slightly, but no words came out.

"S-sorry," he said with a cracked voice. That was the only word he could say right now. The buzzer rang, signaling their drinks are ready to be served.

"I'll- I'll go get it."

Ayumi was sitting alone, watching Yoshiki bring the tray with two mugs. He kissed her... She tried to remember it, but she really couldn't recall much because she was sleeping then. The only thing she remembered was warmth... The two sat on the table, silently drinking tea.

"S-shinozaki..," he managed to speak out. "I'm sorry."

Ayumi didn't answer. She was still in confusion.

"I thought you were asleep and... I'm... Sorry..."

"Why are you keep saying sorry..?" She asked, looking at her reflection on the tea.

"I... I know you don't like me and... I just took away your first kiss! You probably were expecting it to be more romantic or something..."

"Was it your first too?"

Yoshiki was a bit confused by her silent attitude, but he nodded anyways.

"How did it feel like?"

"W-wha?" Yoshiki said sheepishly. "Uh... It was nice... I guess..."

He scratched his head awkwardly.

"Shinozaki, I know you're probably shocked from my sudden act, and I'm sorry I made you confused."

"Kishinuma... You still didn't answer me. Exactly why did you kiss me?"

Yoshiki looked down, worried that he might lose his friendship.

"I really like you... I liked you for long time..."

Ayumi knew the answer, but she still felt flustered when he said it. To be honest, Yoshiki wasn't too bad either. He was 'smoking hot' as her other friends told her, which she didn't agree nor disagree on. He was really nice and kind to her. She realized his kindness after they got of the cursed school.

'I guess it makes sense...' Ayumi thought, looking at Yoshiki who was looking down.

"Since... when?"

Yoshiki looked up again.

"Since I met you," he let out a short, pathetic laugh. "The day you saved me from getting expelled."

Ayumi looked at her empty mug.

"Why didn't I realize..?"

"You barely even noticed me since you were always looking for Satoshi's attention." He said, chuckling.


They went out of the cafe and headed back home.

"Uhh, Shinozaki. I hope we don't lose our friendship over this."

Ayumi looked at him and smiled.

"We won't." She said. "But I'm still keeping my distance. I don't want you to steal a kiss from me again."

"Distance? Aww, come on!"

Yoshiki stared sideways, refusing to make eye contact. He looked a bit sulky.

Ayumi giggled. She put her hands up and cupped Yoshiki's cheeks. Surprised, Yoshiki stared wide-eyed. Ayumi pulled him down and kissed him. It didn't last long since Ayumi pulled away.

"So that's how it feels like..."

"Shinozaki..."

Yoshiki slowly put his hand up and stroked her cheek.

"Call me Ayumi from now on." She smiled.

Yoshiki closed his eyes and kissed Ayumi. She kissed back, enjoying the feeling. They kissed passionately, Yoshiki's arms wrapping Ayumi's waist, making her closer to him. Ayumi loved the way Yoshiki's body contacted hers. She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply. They backed out, breathless.

"I love you, Ayumi."

"Me too, Yoshiki..."

"I never thought these dreams would come true," he chuckled.

Ayumi hugged him, leaning her head on his chest. Yoshiki hugged back, resting his head on Ayumi's shoulder.

"I'm sorry," she said. "I should've known.

"Why are you saying sorry?" Yoshiki mimicked her, chuckling. "It's not your fault anyways."

Ayumi laughed, kissing Yoshiki. They parted their ways home, but they promised to call each other as soon as he's at his apartment.

Yoshiki finally managed to steal Ayumi's heart, and it wouldn't be a exaggeration to say he would only have fortunate days from now on, and for a long time.
