S'up y'all. I 'tis back (does that even make sense?) with Partós Dós (that makes NO SENSE, I KNOW NO SPANISH AND TAKE NO RESPONSIBILITY IF I JUST CALLED SOMEBODY'S MOTHER A DONKEY OR SOMETHING) of Vocaloid: Extra Terrestrial. So, we established a connection (notice the italics, bwahaha ^_^)between Rin, a human girl, and Yuuma, an 'alien' ambassador from FAST (who liked that acronym? I came up with that on the spot, hehe ^w^). We'll see how that develops in part two of this apparently epic saga.
In other news, I think it's the time to tell you that I'm going to be introducing a new feature to my chapters of various stories. Yup, that's right. Following in the footsteps of one of my Fanfiction idols, asianchibi99 (there, I said it..), I'm going to be answering reviews from all you lovely people! Yup, you heard me! So make sure you leave reviews with any questions or comments on the chapters or any of my other stories, and I'll try to answer or reply to all of them if I can in a final part to this (if I need one, which, meh, maybe) or in a different story update ^^ anyway, enough blabbing, on with part two.
WARNING: Possible heartbreaks up ahead. Don't say I didn't warn you.
ANOTHER WARNING: There might be a slightly heated Rin x Yuuma scene later on, bwahaha ^w^ *slaps self* Damn you, dirty mind! Anyway, let's do this thaaaaannnggg xD
OH YEAH I ALMOST FORGOT MOMENT: Thankies to Emma, for teaching me the subtle ways of the M scene. Sorry if I just publicly embarassed you, sweetie. Oh, I mean, le Master of le M ^^

~Vocaloid: Extra Terrestrial Part 2~
I waited so long the next night. Just waiting for him to arrive. For him to keep his promise to me. 10pm. 11pm. Midnight. Where could he be? He promised he'd come, no matter what...I sighed to myself. Maybe he lied. Maybe he wasn't coming after all..
"Rin, are you awake?"
"Huh?" I whispered, sitting up. Yuuma was sitting on my bed, watching me. Oh, crap. I must have fallen asleep. "Oh...I thought you weren't coming."
"I had a promise to keep, didn't I?" he replied gently, leaning over to kiss me. I couldn't help smiling a little. I moved over slightly.
"Lay down with me?" I asked. He smiled and did as I requested, his light green eyes staring into mine.
"So..."
"Kiss me, Yuuma," I whispered, a fiery sudden need growing inside of me. I pulled his face to mine urgently, savouring every second we could share.
"Rin," he moaned softly.
"What? You're not going to just take off and leave me when I least expect it, right?"
"Not this time. I'm all yours till dawn." All mine? That sparked so many possibilities...oh, come on. If you were a teenage girl laying with a hot boy like that, don't even try to say you wouldn't think the same. "Rin...you're beautiful, you know?" I smiled, kissing him deeply. I slid away from him, making sure my door was locked and secure. I became aware of my all-too-short nightdress; the ruffled lace at the hem only brushed my thighs. Oh, good Lord. My father would have killed me...if he knew. I subtly tried to tug the hem down a little so it didn't show quite as much of my legs, and allowed myself to peek back at Yuuma. He sat on my bed, smiling to himself as he waited. Slowly, before my eyes, he removed his shirt, and I felt almost dizzy at the sudden revelation of smooth skin. His chest and body were bronzed and perfect; the result of years of training, I guessed. He slipped off his boots, and even teasingly tugged a little at the waistband of his trousers. The pure sight of him blew any other teen actor or male celebrity I'd ever fantasized about out of the water. He was, in every sense, smoking hot. "Hey, Rin, come over here. It's cold." I smiled at him shyly, returning to his side on my soft bed.
"Are you sure this will be okay?" I asked timidly.
"Lui's covering for me again. Mizki seems a little suspicious, but she's stuck on patrol duty tonight, so there's no one to tear us apart."
"So...we're alone? No cameras, no nothing?"
"Exciting, huh?" You have no idea, I thought to myself. I found myself sighing. "Hmm? What's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just...I'm really happy to be here, with you...and it's great being alone together...I just...are we making a mistake?"
"How?"
"Like...are we classed as traitors to our species because of this?" I gestured to our entertwined fingers. Yuuma shrugged, laying back on the pillows.
"I don't care," he whispered. "They can do what they want to me, so long as I just get this moment with you." He smiled at me gently, with a hint of sadness. "It's what they'll do to you I'm much more worried about."
"I guess that's the price to pay.." Yuuma paused.
"Maybe this isn't such a great idea, if it's putting you in danger.."
"Yuuma, I want to do this. I don't care."
"I do. I will not put you in danger. You mean too much to me."
"Damn it, Yuuma, just kiss me already!"
"I can't," he whispered. My eyes widened, and I turned my head slowly to him, not believing what I just heard.
"W-what? You...you don't want this? You don't want me?" I pulled my hand away from his, hugging my knees. Yuuma's warm arms were suddenly around me, holding me tight. His cheek brushed against mine.
"No. God, no. Of course I want you, you crazy, beautiful girl. It's because I want you so much that I'm considering not going through with this." I turned my head to glance at him, and his sincere, honest, beautiful green eyes watched me right back.
"So...it's because you're scared for me?" Yuuma nodded, his hair tickling my face. "Don't be. I'm a big girl now. I can take care of myself," I whispered.
"You don't know what's going on out there. It's pure hell."
"Then don't go back," I said suddenly. Yuuma tensed up.
"W-what?"
"We could run away."
"They'd find us."
"How do you know?"
"Because I know them. There's no use trying to escape. We can't get anywhere out of this planet's atmosphere without riding the FAST vessel, and that alerts the Queen whenever a recognised member, such as me, boards. There's no way out for us."
"So...what happens when they attack?"
"I..." He obviously hadn't thought about it.
"I die. That's what happens. Your people attack, and my people die. We all die. That's how it works." I felt tears in my eyes and tried to blink them back.
"Never," he murmured.
"You just said so yourself; we can't escape."
"We'll find a way."
"All that's gonna achieve is that you're gonna get yourself killed along with me!" I hissed, keeping my voice as low as possible.
"If that's what it takes, that's what I'm willing to do." I gasped, eyes wide.
"W-what...?"
"I want to be with you more than anything, okay? So, when the time comes, I'll fight with you. I'll fight for you until my heart stops beating. I'll make sure you're safe, whatever it takes...even if it means you will one day find someone else...after I'm gone-hmm?" He looked down at me then, surprised, because I was clinging to him helplessly, burying my face in his bare chest. "Rin.."
"You can't ever leave me alone, okay? I don't care if you say you're fighting for me, or whatever you say it is...we're in this together, you and me, alright? Nothing will tear us apart, ever, because I love you, okay? I can't help it. And I don't care if I'm a human and you're...not. I don't care if we're too different. If this is different, then that's fine by me. And you're stuck with me...because I'll fight for us. And don't you forget it."
"I.." Yuuma stuttered, speechless. I pulled him down to kiss me again, more need than want. I needed him...so much. He was the only reminder of what love truly was I still had. "Well...war or not, we still have tonight." He lay back on the pillows, and I sat on top of him, my legs on either side of him as I leant down to kiss him again.
"Are you sure about this?" I asked, my lips near his ear. He kissed my neck softly.
"I'm sure about you," he murmured into my skin. His soft fingers caressed my face, my eyelids, my nose, my lips, and his hands continued until they reached my waist. My muscles purred where he touched me, warming to the feel of his hands against my nightgown. His hands continued under my nightdress until they rested softly against my skin, and his lips never left mine. My fingers moved of their own accord, guiding his trousers lower down so even more skin was revealed. He copied me, raising the hem of my nightgown. I let him. He wasn't going to hurt me. We were made for each other, despite species and what side we were on. He pulled up the silk covers around us, and I allowed him to remove the nightdress as I lay beneath the soft sheets with him. I'll bet you can guess what happened next. So that's what they called heaven, huh?
~Meanwhile, aboard FAST~
The girl paced back and forth, her raven hair falling around her face gracefully, even in movement. She was becoming agitated, biting her lip and constantly looking over her shoulder.
"Damn it, Yuuma, what are you doing?" she asked no one in particular. Oh, great. Now she was talking to herself! "Get a hold of yourself, Miz-VY1. You're gonna have to be on your guard, especially if the humans choose to make the first move. The Queen needs you to be alert." She couldn't concentrate, though. She got more and more worked up, until finally she couldn't take it anymore. She retrieved the small vial from her pocket and attached the needle. The Queen had given her a small stash of these vials whenever her emotions got too out of control. It didn't physically harm her, but it triggered something in her brain that blocked the basic emotions that humans had, such as happiness, sadness, etc. The only emotion that somehow didn't get stopped on its way to her brain was hate. Pure hate. She sighed and stabbed the needle quickly into her arm. Immediately she felt a cold numbness spread through her veins. She slung the rifle up onto her shoulder and continued to pace back and forth, discarding the needle in a nearby waste disposal unit. When she neared the one of the million and something computer screens dotted around the FAST vessel, she turned to it and saluted, her face straight and brisk. "VY1 reporting for duty, CUL." A girl with red hair appeared on the screen; she was the computer's avatar personality.
"Ah, VY1. The Queen wishes to speak to you personally," the computer said. The avatar closed her eyes. "Connecting now." Suddenly, the Queen herself appeared on screen. VY1 bowed her head, dropping down on one knee.
"Rise, VY1." The girl looked up, getting to her feet. "I have reason to believe that your brother has been involved in some suspicious behaviour."
"I knew it!" the girl said. She paused, covering her mouth. "I'm sorry, my Queen, I didn't mean to interrupt. Forgive me."
"That's alright, VY1. I'm guessing from your reaction that you already suspected this yourself?"
"I did, my Queen. For two nights now, I haven't been able to find him for long periods of time. Then, he suddenly just reappeared right next to me. When I turned, he was there, like he'd never left." The Queen pursed her lips.
"Interesting. It would seem that Lui has been more determined to keep me busy than usual. He's a trying child, but he just can't help letting things slip."
"Did he tell you anything, my Queen?"
"Not directly, but he had a troubled expression on his face, and as you know, I am a very good judge of character."
"Yes, your Majesty. What would you like me to do?"
"Watch your brother like a hawk, my dear. I'm relieving you of your duties for the duration of tomorrow."
"Oh, my Queen, you don't have to do that-"
"It is done. Make sure your brother doesn't leave your sight. I will also be on the lookout."
"For what, exactly?"
"I have reason to believe there is a...human involved." VY1 spluttered, and the Queen gave a grave nod. "If these allegations are true, and VY2 is indeed guilty of consorting with humans outside of our orders, he will have landed himself in a great deal of trouble." VY1 knew what this meant. Despite the needle, she felt a small tug at her mind. Fear. Fear for her brother.
"But, your Majesty...doesn't that mean..." The Queen nodded again, more sadly this time. "I understand."
"I'm glad, VY1...and I know some inkling of what you must feel. To lose a brother...must be very hard." The injection had no effect on the tears that were threatening to spill. VY1 blinked them back furiously, trying to be strong.
"An entire planet of people I knew was lost in one night. Losing VY2 will be hard, but it will only make me stronger." The Queen gave her a long look.
"Good girl, VY1. I have business to attend to, so I must leave you." VY1 bowed. "CUL, that will be all."
"Yes, Mistress," CUL murmured, her animated face coming back into view. "VY1, I have orders to accept your commands for tonight, unless the Queen says otherwise. What are your orders?"
"Be alert, CUL. I may need you later."
"Affirmative, VY1. I'll await further instructions." The computer turned itself off again, the digital image of the girl waving as she disappeared.
VY1 sighed to herself, looking through one of the windows that provided a view of Earth. "Damn it, Yuuma, where are you?"
~The Next Morning~
"Yuuma," I whispered, laying across his chest. He didn't reply, so I guessed he was still asleep. I smiled to myself. Last night had been perfect. Pure heaven. He'd been so sweet to me...it was just amazing. Suddenly, a chill rose up through my body. "Damn, it's cold..." I waited for him to put his arms around me, but he didn't. Strange. In fact, he didn't move. "Yuuma?" I wondered, opening my eyes and sitting up. What the...? But... I looked around. Where was he? He couldn't have...but he had...he was gone. I'd been lying on my pillows. It was cold because I was alone. His clothes were gone, and the faint smell of him lingered in the pillows. I buried my face in the one he'd been lying on, and tears came to my eyes. "Damn it, Rin...he's gone. It's over...I guess he never really loved me. If he did, he would never have left withou-hmm?" Something rustled beneath the pillow, and I lifted it up to see a crumpled piece of paper. Rin, it said in scrawled letters on the front. I wiped away the tears with the back of my hand and opened up the paper.
Rin, it read. I'm sorry I left without saying goodbye. I didn't want to wake you up. Sorry if it came as a shock when you woke up to find me gone, but it was necessary. By the time you read this I'll be back on the FAST vessel, but know this. I WILL come back for you, so please don't cry. I'll never leave you alone. As much as you like to think you can take care of yourself, you really can't. Sorry to be the one to break that to ya, but it's just because I- That section was smudged. No, no, no! What did he write? My eyes scrolled to the only remaining unsmudged part. Chin up, baby. I clutched the note to my chest, almost crying again.
"Damn it, Yuuma..." I whispered. "If you die...I'm gonna kill you."
The rest of the day continued as it had before. My father was obviously worried about me as I pushed my food around my plate, sighing. "Rin, are you alright, honey?"
"I'm fine, father," I replied to each of his questions. He didn't look convinced, but there wasn't much he could do about it. He was tied down by duty, evacuating areas, organising things. Honestly, it would all just be a waste of time. We were going to die anyway. All of us. I looked out of the window at the sky. The FAST vessel had managed to place itself so that it blocked out the sun. Despite this, stray rays of light still reached the ground. "I'm gonna...go outside for a while," I suddenly said.
"Okay," my dad said, frowning. He watched me carefully as I slipped on a jacket and headed outside. The chilly air blew my hair back from my face, but I embraced the cold like an old friend, allowing it to consume me. As I looked around, I noticed that, strangely, down by the well, there was a fairly thick sheet of snow. Wait, snow? It's only September! Then it hit me. I looked up slowly towards the FAST vessel, smiling sadly. Yuuma...snowflakes fell and clung to my clothes and hair. I gathered my skirt and lowered myself onto a low branch, looking out over the vast white ground. Suddenly, out of nowhere, a tune appeared in my head. Huh? Slowly, lyrics began to form. I threw my head back and began to sing to FAST, and to him.
"You're so hypnotising, could you be the Devil? Could you be an angel? Your touch, magnetizing, feels like I am floating, leaves my body glowing.." I sang. I frowned at my house. "They say, 'be afraid'..."
"You're not like the others, futuristic lover," another voice sang in perfect harmony. No...of course he wouldn't be there. It was just my stupid mind playing tricks on me. Damn hallucinations. I stayed where I was, closing my eyes.
"Different DNA.." Tears welled up in my eyes. "They don't understand you.." The same voice sang those last words along with me in perfect unison. But...wait, it wouldn't happen twice, would it? No...damn it, give me a break. But the voice continued to sing with me.
"You're from a whole 'nother world..." It was only my imagination, but a soft hand caressed my face.
"A different dimension...you've opened my eyes..." the voice sang.
"And I'm ready to go, lead me into the light.."
"You don't believe I'm here, do you?"
"No. Because you're not. You wouldn't be."
"I said I'd come back."
"Yeah, but...wait." I slowly opened my eyes, and there he was, staring back at me. Holy.. "Yuuma.."
"I promised. And I never break a promise. Especially not to you."
"But what about-"
"Shh.." he whispered, putting his finger to my lips. "I think you should sleep now."
"Huh?" Suddenly, my eyelids began to droop. What on earth.. "But I'm not...tired..."
"Sleep now," he murmured. My muscles were numbing, and suddenly I pitched forward. The last thing I saw in my last moment of consciousness was the hazy image of Yuuma, standing over me. His hand twitched, and he pressed a button on a keypad at his belt. Oh, God...no way...that wasn't Yuuma...someone had been using some form of shapeshifting device...oh, my God.
VY1.
~Aboard FAST~
"VY1 reporting for duty, my Queen."
"Enter, VY1." VY1 walked into the large room, bowing to the Queen as she did so. There was a gasp throughout the room as the thing she was carrying came into public view. "VY1...you didn't..."
"I bring before you a human."
"Yes...but why?" VY1 looked up, and suddenly she caught the eyes of her brother. His own eyes widened at the sight of...well, his true love. For non other than Shion Rin was lying in VY1's arms. Tricking her had been easy enough. Now to seal the deal.
"Mizki.." VY2 mouthed. She ignored him.
"My Queen, I have proof for your suspicions."
"Not.."
"Yes, your Majesty." She turned to the others in the room. "Comrades, what you see before you is a human girl by the name of Shion Rin. I'm afraid a great tragedy has befallen us. There is a traitor among our people." VY2 clenched his fists where he was standing at the Queen's right side. Murmurs spread through the room, followed by worried looks. Everyone was trying to figure out who the enemy was. "No need to fret. I know exactly whom the traitor is, and I shall tell you." She smiled. This was it. The moment that everything depended on. She began to walk towards VY2, towards Yuuma, towards her brother, still carrying Rin. She watched his eyes blaze with fury, and she continued to walk. When she reached him, the siblings shared a long look.
"Why?" her brother whispered so only she could hear. VY1 smiled again, tears in her eyes. Slowly, she passed Rin's unconscious form over to him. There was another gasp as VY1 leant in, her lips near his ear.
"Take care of her," she whispered. Her brother stiffened, his eyes wide. "I'll buy you time. When I give the signal, run, okay?" Her brother started to protest, but she stopped him quickly, aware of what little time they had. "I love you, Yuuma. You're my big brother, and you've always been there for me. Now...now it's my turn to pay you back." Yuuma slumped against her, trembling. She could almost feel the tears threatening to spill over. "Be safe." With that, she stepped back, and bowed low for the Queen.
"VY1, what are you doing?" the Queen asked, shocked. No one moved.
"What I was intending to do in the first place. I'm simply telling the public who the traitor is. They have no cares for human life, and neither do you. But I do have feelings, as do we all. So, listen closely." Everyone leaned in slightly. "The traitor.."
"Hurry yourself, VY1, and tell us."
"Well..." VY1 smiled. Suddenly she drew her guns and fired at the large energy wielding crystal in the roof above the Queen's throne. It shattered, and the Queen screamed. "It's me, of course." She looked at her brother, and Mizki smiled again, sadly. "Now," she whispered, and Yuuma nodded.
"Thank you...Mizki," he murmured, and Mizki nodded.
"Go," she said softly, and Yuuma, carrying Rin, began to run, dodging guards. When she was sure he was gone, she continued to fire at the crystal, making sure it was destroyed. Soon, FAST would begin to lose power, and so would the Queen. She'd never liked her, anyway.
"VY1, you are an enemy of FAST! You will never again be tolerated here! You are a liability to both humans and our kind!" The Queen raised her hand, and Mizki recognised the gesture immediately. As soon as the Queen's hand closed, the guards would fire, and Mizki would die.
"My name is not VY1," she said clearly, looking the Queen in the eyes. The Queen gasped, her hand still high. "My name...is Mizki."
The Queen closed her hand.
~Meanwhile~
Wiping tears from his eyes, the green-eyed boy began to program the escape shuttle. Rin was still unconscious in the seat beside him, and his eyes kept flashing to her. Mizki saved us both, he thought to himself. In the distance, he could hear the thundering footsteps of the guards. They'd be here soon. He thumped the controls, annoyed. "Damn it, work!" he yelled. The escape shuttle didn't budge, and neither did Rin. They had to get out...he had to get her out...but how? Slowly, he leaned forward so he could see out of the window. Was that the only way? They wouldn't get down there alive, would they? At least...not both of them...okay, that did it. Grabbing Rin, he lifted his foot and kicked the window. It shattered on the first attempt, and he managed to slide out with her in his arms. The guards were getting closer; he could hear their voices. So, he took a deep breath, and jumped.
The ground moved in slow motion towards them, and Yuuma sighed, holding Rin securely around the waist and shoulders. He'd promised to keep her safe, and if there was any chance she could escape alive, he would take it. With the energy crystal gone, FAST was in no position to attack, maybe for many years. All that put them in danger now was the hard ground.
"Yuuma.." a weak voice said, and he looked down to see Rin's eyes fluttering open to stare into his. She glanced around, going pale. "What are we...what happened to your sister?"
"Mizki saved us both.." he whispered, his throat going tight. Rin got it almost immediately.
"I'm sorry," she murmured. "This is all my fault."
"Of course it's not. I came back for you. I stayed with you all night...I..." Yuuma sighed, thinking about that night.
"Yeah. But-"
"Shh. It's no one's fault, okay?" Rin looked up; their heads were the closest thing to the ground, and they were spiralling towards it with their feet flying behind them.
"Are we gonna die?" she asked, sounding like a small child. Yuuma rubbed his cheek against her hair, hugging her tight.
"Maybe," he murmured, not allowing himself to lie to her anymore. "But there's something...there's a chance that you could get out of this alive."
"What about you?"
"Damn it, stop worrying about me!" he said, actually laughing. Rin didn't smile.
"But...you said you wouldn't leave me...you promised!" she spluttered, crying. Yuuma sighed.
"Rin...you know I wouldn't do this if we had another choice." Rin gripped his hand.
"So we both die."
"Are you crazy?"
"Apparently so. But I love you, and there's no point to my life if you're not in it, okay?"
"Rin-"
"Don't tell me this is a bad idea. Don't. Don't tell me I'm insane, or that this isn't right...don't say anything. Just kiss me. Please." Yuuma sighed and smiled at her, looking at her beautiful blue eyes and her lovely, lovely face. The ground was dangerously close to them now. Make or break time. Instead of saying anything, he pressed his lips to hers one more lovely time. I love you, he thought. Oh, to hell with it.
"I love you, Shion Rin," he murmured, his mouth still against hers. He felt her smile. The smile rapidly turned to a frown.
"Yuuma, what are you...? Yuuma? Yuuma!"
"I love you, Rin," he whispered. Then he pushed her head down, hugging her tight to him protectively. He tucked his head close to hers, keeping her as safe as possible from the impact. There was a moment of silence as she realised what he was doing. Then she sighed, and her arms snaked around his waist slowly.
"I love you too, you idiot!" she laughed. Then everything moved very fast. She, realising he wouldn't change his mind, turned her head and buried her face in his chest. The two lovers clutched each other. Then they both stopped. The same thought ran through both of their heads. Oh, to hell with it. Then both of them moved, and their lips found each other and stayed there all the way down.
So that was what heaven really was.
~Back to the Present~
"So now you know. That's what really happened. Of course he didn't make it...I cried so hard as I cradled his body. He died for me, you know. For days on end I sobbed my heart out over him. I loved him so much, you know. So much.." the young woman trailed off, sighing. The small boy frowned.
"But, Mama...I asked you to tell you a story about my father," he said, confused. The woman laughed, hugging him to her.
"You funny boy," she murmured into his hair. He blinked up at her with big green eyes. His blonde hair had a pinkish tint to it. "Ever since that night, I knew...because it was him, things were slightly different...that's why it took a few years, rather than a few months..." The boy's face just got more puzzled, so she laughed and cradled his face in her hands.
"Mama, I'm confused...you said you'd tell me about my father, didn't you?"
"Oh, Len...my dear little Lenny," Shion Rin said as she stood up. She looked out of the window, up at the unshadowed sky. "He is your father."

WHOA. I for one did NOT expect me to write that ending. Anyone else part of the oh-my-god-did-not-see-that-coming group? Yeah. Thought so. Well, that's that story complete. I hoped you liked it. Yes, I know, he died, but c'mon. I did promise you heartbreak, and it was the only way that end scene would work. Hope you enjoyed it other than that ^w^
Until next tiiiimmme, folks~! Love y'all!
PS: Emma, I shall be expecting your personal feedback on this. Mad Father's going great, by the way, I reunited that sad little head with it's body, and Aya's mam just appeared. Confusing OwO anyway, until next time.

Yanoe what, I'ma be nice. Because I love you guys and you deserve a happy (well, happier) ending, I'm not gonna make Yuuma die. Heck, it's as much for me as it is for you. Here's an additional scene that could have happened.
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
~Present Day~
I sigh to myself as I watch Len reading. He's so like his dad, in so many ways. Damn, I miss Yuuma so much. "Mam," Len says. "What's up?"
"Hm?"
"You're crying."
"Course I'm not. It's hayfever."
"In September?"
"Yeah," I sniff, trying to smile. Len sighs, standing up. He's getting big now, and Rin sighed agai. I do that a lot, lately. Suddenly, Len freezes. "Len, honey? What's wrong? Is something the matter?" Len's attention is focused on the front drive. I stand up beside him, clapping my hands to my mouth. No..
"Mam," Len whispers. "Who's that guy?" I continue to stare, shocked. The man in question is standing outside the door, waiting. Slowly, he raises his hand and knocks...once, twice...thrice. "Do you want me to get it?"
"No...I-I'll get it," I murmur, walking in an almost dreamlike manner to the door. I open it with trembling fingers, and there, standing on my doorstep, is a young man with green eyes and pinkish hair, who stole my heart with a glance. When our eyes met, a smile spread across his face. He leans in, cupping my face with his hand, and kisses me softly. A gentle smile spreads across my own features.
"Sorry I'm late," the man says quietly. I look up at him, smiling.
"Hello..." I reply, taking his hand. "...Yuuma."
'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
N'aw, there ya go. Happy endings all round. I have to go now, so, until next time (for real), see y'all!
