3 - I don't understand.
Notes- Disfurten!
.:Tooru's point of view!:.
I woke up to find what I believed to be
half way home. It seemed that it was already late into the night. I
guessed it was just about midnight and I wondered if we would get
scolded tomorrow by the president. We probably wouldn't get in
trouble for coming home so late or going out but perhaps because of
the mixture of violet and dark crimson on Yuuji's face. I suddenly
decided to intertwine my fingers with his as he slept. Then with my
free hand I softly placed my fingers on his injured cheek. I
carefully ran my thumb over the now visible injury. I couldn't
believe how he had fought for me that way to protect me from those
thugs in the hat shop. I wish we could have stayed at that wonderful
pier. It was enchanting, almost like our secret place for him and I
where we didn't have everyone flocking over us as they yelled
"Princess!! Princess!!" Maybe when he got better, and I had
earned myself some money I could take him back there and spend the
entire day with him. What had me so confused was the fact at why I
was holding his hand as with my other ran my fingers thru his hair.
He seemed so perfect there was no way I could ever meet someone like
him again yet… As I continued looking out the window I seemed to
have had miscalculated the distance we had traveled on the train
because I suddenly realized after a long while of spacing out that
the sun was slowly beginning to rise. What brought me back to earth
had been his hand as he gently squeezed mine as he woke up. I
immediately looked down at him to find him smiling at me. At that
instant I smiled back at him. I then gently ran my thumb over his now
deep violet and crimson masterpiece that was his cheek. I then
quietly whispered.
"Does it hurt?"- He looked up at me as if
he did not know what I was talking about and I decided to leave it at
that. With that he chuckled yet as he did he suddenly began coughing.
I made him lay back down on my lap.
"You need to rest." I
softly told him. He did and with that silence fell upon us but not an
uncomfortable silence but a understanding silence. With that I began
running my fingers thru his hair. A while later he quietly
asked.
"Did you have a good time?"
"Yes, although I
wished we could have stayed longer but yes it's a beautiful place.
I really enjoyed spending time with you."
With that his hand
gave mine a gentle squeeze. He then had a huge smile on his face as
he said.
"Well since we didn't get to spend such a fun time
I'll take you back next weekend we can even stay an extra day as
next weekend is a long weekend."
"Really?" I asked
excitedly.
"Yes really," he said as he gently placed my hand
on his lips and gave it a small kiss. I immediately blushed not
understanding what he meant by that. I just looked out the window as
if nothing had happened. He then began slowly to sit up yet as he was
doing so I heard him groan out in pain. Once I heard that I
immediately reached to help him and with that he was eventually
sitting next to me. I let my arm wrap around his waist to help
support him up. He then lightly leaned on to my shoulder using it as
support as his hand once again found mine interlocking fingers. I
didn't find it weird what was happening. It was what any friend
would do for another right? It was just helping out a hurt friend no?
As the train ride continued on quietly at some point I heard light
snoring and noticed that he had fallen asleep again. With that I
continued looking out the window pondering when eventually I heard
the loud speaker announce.
"This is our last stop all passengers
are asked to please exit at this moment." I then gently shook Yuuji
to wake him up. Then I slowly helped a groggy Yuuji up as we began
walking off the train slowly.
.:Yuujiro's Point of view:.
As we walked off the train oh God how everything hurt.
I could barely move yet at the same time felt great as Tooru was
holding my hand and had his other wrapped around my waist as mine
around his shoulders using him as support. We continued walking at a
snail's pace because I couldn't walk any faster. We soon got out
of the train station and were about to start walking back when he
stopped and waved his hand in the air as he called a taxi cab. I
looked at him a bit confused when he saw this he gave me a reassuring
smile. He helped me get in the cab as he slid in next to me as he
told the driver to take us back to school. We drove back in silence.
I held his hand a bit tighter as I suddenly realized that my little
fantasy in which I had been living was soon to end as we came closer
to the school. We would get scolded by the president, I just knew it.
I also knew that not even my physical state would save me from this
one. As I had gotten a hold of his hand he had been giving me a
concerned look as I gave him a reassuring smile. I then loosened my
grip on his hand as I continued looking out the window. Soon after we
arrived at school and he pays for the taxi. I couldn't argue with
his generosity as I was too damaged and in pain to think clearly. We
were walking into school and at that moment everyone came over in a
giant flock. Their screams of "Princess Princess!!" Oh god how it
was making my head throb as it hurt. He then gently smiled at then as
he told them that I needed rest. They all sadly left and I was glad.
By then he had let go of my hand which I wasn't very happy about
but I couldn't complain. He took me to the nurse's office. She
addressed my wounds and then sent us off to our room without any
questions. We then quickly arrived at our room and once there all I
wanted was to climb on my bed and to fall asleep. Yet as I was about
to I heard him say.
"Yuuji. You should go bathe it will make you
feel better and save you from any infections from injuries by those
thugs." I slowly nod as I headed over to my side of the room and
picked out some clothes to get my stuff ready to go shower. He also
does the same. He then walked next to me to our private showers. Once
there he asked.
"Do you need anything or will you be okay from
here?"
"I think I'll be fine… You'll know if there is
something wrong." Saying that, I walked over and placed my things
on the ground as I removed my shirt yet as I did I felt a pair of
eyes on me. It cause me to blush and it made me move as fast as I
could. Then I was in the shower in less time than I thought it would
take. I soon finished my shower and was soon dressed I had put the
same clothes I had been wearing. As I was about to walk out of the
showers and head back to our room I head him say.
"Yuuji. Wait
for me!" At that moment I turned around and smiled at him.
"Wow
maybe I should get injured more often." With that he stuck his
tongue out at me and soon caught up to me. We walked back to our room
and changed into some pajamas as I told him.
"I don't plan on
going to class today, but you should go. I don't think I will able
to take the entire day." He then gave me a concerned look and he
replied.
"Well then I wont be either! It is my fault that you
are this hurt if you wouldn't have defended me back at that hat
shop and you wouldn't be so hurt." I smiled as I told him.
"Well
it's okay really." I soon began climbing on my bed and it was
hurting me to no end and he must have noticed because he said.
"You
can use my bed."
"You sure? What about you?" He then sat
down on his bed next to me as he said.
"Schootch over."
"Huh?"-
was my smart reply as he slightly pushed me over and then I caught
what he meant and moved over. He then laid down next to me and pulled
the covers over us as he said.
"Well can't have you dying on
me," he chucked as he turned over and I the other direction and
sleep took over us rapidly.
