Chapter 2: Rain

Bahh bahh bahh! The alarm clock whined as it woke Akito from his sleep. Sana lay beside him peacefully not even alerted by the noise, but that was so like Sana she never woke up off the alarm. Akito shut it off and kissed Sana on her cheek. She was in a deep sleep and he thought how beautiful she looked just lying there under the cover. He bent over and kissed her again on the forehead.

Noise from the heavy rain thudded against the patio door. He stepped outside slipping his training gloves on repeatedly punching and kicking simultaneously with the rain droplets. He made grunts with each punch adding more power as he progressed. The cold rain fell upon his face bouncing off his skin but he continued. This was his morning routine; he exercised and trained faithfully each day at five in the morning.

Sana arose from her slumber to find Akito missing by her side. She usually did not notice his absence because of her heavy sleeping, but she was curious about her lover's whereabouts. She got up and stirred around the house in search of Akito.

"Akito?" she said still half sleep while rubbing her eyes. He had no idea that she had awoke, he continued his training increasing his speed with each blow. Sana was just around the corner, she spotted him.

"Aki?" Sana was amazed because she never saw him do his morning training just his usual jog around the park. She was drawn to Akito he looked so good like candy to her eyes. She walked closer with each step her heart was racing; she had never experienced a feeling like this. She wanted to be near him.

Akito in his own world didn't sense Sana's presence he was so into his training only focusing on his movements and technique. Sana looked at his movements which seemed so graceful to her with every punch and kick; she admired him in the rain. She walked with an absent mind onto the patio like a fly drawn to a light.

"Aaah!" Sana screamed and fell onto the ground. The rain pouring down harder on her body. Akito looked down at her. His hands were bloody. Sana?

She walked right into his punch. He had hit her in the face. Her nose was bleeding rapidly and her lip was swelling hard. He knocked her unconscious. Akito stared at her bloody face as she lay on the ground in her night gown. Damn. I'm sorry Sana. I hope you will forgive me.

He lifted her like a ragdoll and carried her into the house. He laid her back on the bed and rushed to the bathroom pulling everything out of the medicine cabinet. It was a good thing he was trained at treating wounds otherwise he would have rushed her to the hospital something he hated and always tried to avoid.

"Sana how dimwitted can you be sometimes? Sometimes you act as though you have no common sense at all", Akito spoke aloud almost getting angry. He placed peroxide on her nose cleaning her wounds bandaging it up and then placed an ice pack on her mouth. Sana I wish I could stay with you but I have to be at the office at nine and you have rehearsal at twelve. I guess I will call your mom and Ray. He grabbed the phone and dialed the Kurata residence. He waited patiently for someone to answer but to no avail. He kept calling but still no one answered. He sat beside his unconscious angel and contemplated as the rain fell on the patio door. He tried others, he called most of her friends but no one answered. It was like no one seemed to care even though he failed to acknowledge that it was early in the morning and maybe people were still in the sand man's dream land.

Time flew rapidly on as Akito lay next to her hoping anxiously that she would awake. It was already eight and he would have to rush to work something he rarely did and hated doing. He picked up the phone this time calling his career. Ring Ring Ring…

"This is JDS, Japan's Detective Services if you know your parties' extension please dial now if not please hold" the automated voice explained while Akito dialed 3-2-2-1 his department. Someone finally picked up the phone.

"This is Moto chief of detectives, may I help you?"

"Hey Mo this is Hayama. I am not going to be able to make it in today. I'm sorry for the inconvenience of the case that I was working on but something more important has come up." Akito said in a low voice.

"What Akito are you serious? You are really into this case I thought you were going to the deal tonight to uncover more information? All we need is a location to get the feds to crack down the drug traffic".

"I know Motomoshi and it is not like me to miss work but I can't make it in today. Please understand my reasons, if it helps I'll send you all the information I uncovered last to you by email. There is a girl name star that has been a slave of the top Yakuza boss. She has been my informant, I promised I would help her escape from the Yakuza's control and it is something that I intend on doing".

"Alright Hayama but only because you never miss work, this must be really important" Moto left with a click. Akito was relieved he didn't want to leave Sana at home by herself and he wanted to explain to her everything that happened. He called her studio she had been rehearsing at and told her that she wouldn't be able to make it, never giving them a reason why. They did not seem to mind because Sana was a well-known actor and a fast learner, she could easily catch up.

It had been a while since he had the day to himself. A day to spend with Sana even though she probably would be mad at him for hitting her even though it was her own fault. She would get over it eventually, she always did. Akito got up and walked into his spacious kitchen. He decided to cook for her and treat her nice so that she would relax and focus on healing. Besides he knew Sana loved to eat even though her cooking tasted like crap he still ate it out of love.

The smell of chicken and rice filled the air. It was the sweet savory scent of seasoned chicken added to rice. He even cut her some fresh fruit apples and oranges. All the dojo training he undertook over the years by his sensei turned him into a health nut. His sensei put him on a strict diet. Scents of the food flowed through the wide open spaces of Akito's apartment into the bedroom where Sana lay then into her nose. She finally awoke. My head hurts so badly. What happened? Why is this ice pack on me? Akito what did you do! She got up looking around and walked into the bathroom. She saw evidence of medicine and first aid supplies left opened on the counter. Picking everything up, she glanced at herself in the mirror. Oh my goodness! I look so hideous. My mouth is bigger and there is a bandage wrapped around my face. I cannot even feel it. What's going on? Where is Aki?

Everything was placed perfectly on the tray Akito prepared for Sana. Even though Sana was not intimate with Akito he still did things for her to make her feel special. He did things to show her that he did not hate her but cared about her more than anything. Sana was special she had always been. The way she laughed and smiled. Everyone around her was always happy and no other girl except Fuuka had ever showed interest in him. Akito didn't hate Sana, he loved her. Akito walked into the room only to find Sana nowhere in sight. He placed the tray on the nightstand.

"Akito?" he heard and turned around to Sana's sweet voice.

"Hey" he said and still carried the expressionless look on his face he always had.

"Hey that's all you've got to say? Would you mind explaining to me why I have a bandage around my head? Why my mouth is all puffy?" She scratched her head and wondered.

The rain had started pouring down harder and there were small noises of thunder. The whistling of the wind became more apparent, a storm was about to brew up.

"You woke up when I was outside doing my morning routines. I was training and I did not realize that you were coming towards me. I was in my own state of mind. I accidently punched you in the face when you approached me. It was an accident I'm sorry." Akito's head bent down, he stared at the floor.

"Akito it is okay. I forgive you. I will be beautiful back in no time. That's what stage make up is for right?" she giggled.

"Right… Hey I made you breakfast".

"Breakfast? I don't have time for breakfast I have rehearsal to attend".

"Sana I called the studio they know you are not coming, you need to stay home and heal"

"Don't be silly", she said as she waved her hand slightly back and forwards. She picked up an apple slice and nibbled on it. "Aren't you supposed to be working on your case?"

"Yeah, but the boss cut me some slack and said I could send it to him from home so there was no need for me to come in. I told him I had important things to do today".

"Like what?"

"Like taking care of you" Sana was puzzled, her heart started beating again. This feeling was so strange to her; she didn't know what to do. Akito looked at Sana even though she had gotten badly damaged he still thought she was beautiful. He stared deeply into her brown eyes and placed his hand on her face. The thunder became louder and lightening started sparking up every few minutes.

"Sana, you are like this storm. You can be calm and relaxing like the rain. You can be loud and obnoxious like the thunder. But mostly you are like the lightening because you are so spontaneous and bright. You lighten up the sky and people making them laugh and smile. Most of all you lighten up my life and put a charge on my heart. Sana I love you" Akito poured out his heart just as the clouds poured out rain outside. He pulled Sana closer to him and kissed her softly on her lips. Sana felt secure in his arms she really loved Akito too.
