Chapter 3: Feelings
"Lady Makoto, Lady Makoto, Lady Makoto!" Hurried yelling , was heard throughout the manor. Neyuki ran to the guestroom where Makoto was staying, she continued to yell the woman's name. As she ran past her lord she quickly stopped sliding a few inches, quickly completing a polite bow she started running again. Turning left and turning right she finally got to the room she was heading for. Catching her breath before entering and thinking why anyone would want so many confusing twists and turns in their home, she thought once again to the rumors that a healer was in her only home. Opening the door she instantly spotted Makoto and let out a sigh of relief.
"Oh Lady Makoto, I heard a healer had been sent for yesterday and instantly ran to my mother's bedside, once I had found out she was fine my thoughts went straight to you, I thought you were hurt but thank goodness your fine," She paused as a small light laugh was heard to her right, "What? Oh Miss. Hiozaki, what are you doing here?" The girl looked at the blue-haired healer, with confusion burned into her eyes.
"I was about to find out before you came running in worried about your friend." A cheerful smile was placed on the Mercurians face, caused the girl to blush.
"I would like to know as well Miss. Kino please continue." The three women spun around to come face to face with Lord Nephrite, Makoto glared at him, 'At least he didn't call you Makoto or Mako-chan' she thought before turning to Neyuki.
"Well if there is to be no more interruptions, I will get to say what I want to say." She smiled at Neyuki, "You may stay if you want Nephrite." He nodded.
"There's something I need to talk to you about anyway, I'll wait." She nodded, and opened her mouth to finally say what she had been waiting to say ever since she had gotten yes as the reply to her note.
"Since our talk yesterday in the Gardens Neyuki, I've been thinking about what you said about your wanting to become a healer..well I took it upon myself to make sure you get tutoring in the subject and asked his Lordship , if I may have a healer. Juri came, and well for starters is it okay with you Juri?" The other woman once again smiled .
"Of course , if I had known that Neyuki wanted to become a healer I would've come to Lord Nephrite myself!" She exclaimed. Neyuki turned to face the man who held this dream come true , if he should let it go she would be terribly sad, but if not oh the excitement would be too much for her.
"Very well, Like Juri, if I had known I would have done something about it myself as well." Neyuki ran to him and gave him a big hug, Makoto stared at him and watched his smile directed at the girl. There had been times when she would have done anything to receive that smile. The people of the moon had always thought that she and Nephrite were more then friends. They were always seen together or talking together, but nothing ever came from it. She laughed at herself and her attempt at trying to get the man who she knew as a General not a Lord to at least become her friend , if anything else came from that, well it was a added bonus. But now things were blurry. She asked herself questions of him night and day, questions like, Why did he kidnap me? Why does he always wear that mask of indifference on his beautiful face that should show emotion? Why had she seen pain and regret in his eyes that day, only one day before? Where was the Nephrite she had known and become friends with and had fallen in love with.... 'Love did I just think that about my relationship with him, even so maybe I held that emotion before but not anymore,' She shook her head and looked back up.
"Miss. Kino I need to speak to you in private, Miss. Hiozaki I'm sure you would like to go over what your new student will be learning with her time spent with you?" The woman nodded as Makoto and he left the room. They walked down the corridor until they were far enough from the room, he turned around and faced her.
"There is a ball I've been invited to, but to go I need to escort someone will you like to come with me?" She stared into his brown eyes. A smirk on her lips.
"Do I really have a choice?" She asked.
"Well , no you don't, but still would you like to come?"
"Fine." Fine she said nothing more, nothing less just Fine, he felt relaxed, as if he was scared she would turn him down.
"Fine, it's is in a fortnight," She politely nodded and turned around and started to walk away. Suddenly he remembered something, reaching out for her wrist, he pulled her to him.
Being quickly pulled back to where she was had startled her. She turned around to find them nose to nose, his warm breath pressed against her cheek, she was uncomfortable, but her feet wouldn't move away from him they seemed to want to go even closer then they were before.
"I'll send for a seamstress to come in two days think of what you want the dress to look like until then." She slowly nodded words would not come to her mouth at this time. Her trance broke as the man turned away from her and started to, head in the other direction.
~~
He didn't stop until he was far , far away from her. He felt himself lean against a wall, his thoughts taking over. Gods knew how he wanted to kiss her that moment, how he wanted to freely run his hands through her hair. But he couldn't for that would ruin Beryl's plan, but whenever he was near her he just wanted to do something. The way she had stared intently that day, what was it yesterday, He knew his mask had fallen and real emotions shown through he knew and cursed himself for showing weakness in front of her.
"What should I do?" Nephrite knew he was alone but still questioned himself.
'Ignore her, you're very good at ignoring people, remember when Jadeite was bugging you that time' a voice in the back of his mind came out from it hiding place to pop its head out and cause mischief.
"Fine I'll try." He knew if anyone walked by at that precise moment they would think him crazy, still knowing this he didn't care not in the least. As he headed back to his room the little voice said something to no one but itself.
'Until the ball that is."
~~
"ouch"
"oww"
"Stop it!" Makoto slapped playfully at the seamstress hand full of pins.
"It wouldn't hurt that much Lady Makoto, if you didn't move so much." She said impatience filling her voice. Makoto stuck her tongue out at the elderly woman, causing a giggle to escape Neyuki mouth. It had been two days since that little mishap with Nephrite and she hadn't seen him since. So with her free time without him, Makoto, Neyuki , and Juri had time to pick out dresses for all three of them were coming, Neyuki on Makoto demand.
She thought about the ball, even if it was unwanted she couldn't help but hope Nephrite liked her dress.
