Return of the ex fiancé part 2
After the twins had left, I hadn't enjoyed another spoon of ice cream. Everyone noticed how down I was on the inside even though I was smiling and laughing on the outside. I honestly felt like a part of me was missing. Kyoya looked a bit open to the idea that I spend the night at his house, but I turned him down and lied about having some exams tomorrow.
"Fine. Then we'll all spend the night with you."
"NO!" I snapped. "Why can't I be alone for the rest of the day. I already said I didn't wanna come but I came anyways, so just- just butt out!"
Everyone gaped at me in the parlor and I swallowed the huge wave of tears trying to burst through my eyelids. "Kyoya can you please take me home now..."
Mori just eyed me for a second and whispered something to Kyoya.
"Can Mori take you? I forgot about that meeting. Thanks." He got up and kissed me on the cheek before leaving.
He's not supposed to do that!
My face burned and Honey beamed. "You'll spend the night with us, Ma-chan!"
"I'm going home." I stated. He pouted and looked at his cousin, as if he had control over where I would be spending the night. "Hey don't look at him he has no-"
Mori looked down at me with this tiny smile that made me almost fall on a spoon and die. "Will you stay the night?"
"Yes." He picked me up bridal style and I frowned. "WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT?!"
"Takashi mastered in seduction!"
I paled. "Yeah? Well it didn't work."
Mori carried me out of the parlor, leaving our friends laughing at us. "Did it not?" He whispered into my ear. My heart froze as I launched myself out of his arms and went flying somewhere.
I believe I can fly~
*Time skip*
"Ma-chan?"
I opened my eyes sleepily and glanced around. I wasn't in my room, or house, or in my clothes to top it off.
I screamed as I sat up. A hand covered my mouth and that certain someone turned on the lamp on the nightstand.
"Shut up!" Honey grumbled.
My eyes widened and I nearly fainted. Wait! ASK QUESTIONS!
I slapped whoever's hand- Mori... his hand away and whisper a growl. "Why am I here, in your bed, in different clothes?"
"You got hit by a car, we took you to the hospital, your clothes was changed by our maid, we took you here because we were tired, and we informed everyone that you were spending the night because you broke your ankle."
"How did I break my ankle?"
"Well you were flying through midair and an SUV sped and hit your ankle, causing you to be pulled down onto the windshield... which you shattered and momentum carried through the disconnection."
"Is that even possible?"
"Well it happened today. You can look for yourself."
I lifted the sheets and stared at my black cast. "Do the twins know?"
"No. They are still dealing with Ariel."
I groaned and laid back into the pillows. "..."
"Are you really that mad about them being with Ariel?"
"I'm not mad. Just frustrated." I sighed. "It's like they literally painted me into every picture and now they're cutting me out."
Honey watched me stare at the ceiling. "Have they ever heard you say this?"
"I don't see them anymore..."
"Well Ariel is quite a load of work." Mori sighed, playing with my hair.
"It's not fair. I'm their fiancé. They can't even spare a second with me..."
Honey stared at me and quickly looked away. "Well if things ever get called off... come back to us..."
"..." I poked him and smiled. "I'm still mad at you."
His eyes sparkled as that day came back to him. "Since I love you... I'm not going to touch you, but if I lusted after you, I would have had you." He smirked.
Mori rolled his eyes. "Humph."
I blushed and remained silent. "Well thanks for the love..." I mumbled, as I tried to lay on my side.
Cold fingers rotated my ankle, officially moving me to my side. I craned my neck back to Honey to say thanks, but instead earned a kiss. It took 1 second and 55 milliseconds for me to realize I was being kissed, one millisecond to realize I was kissing back, and and almost 3.5 milliseconds to break it off.
.5 milliseconds later...
I stared at him with a defeated look.
Mori stared at him with a look that screeched jealousy.
I THOUGHT HE WASN'T-
"Goodnight." He huffed and turned off the lights.
We all stared at each other for the rest of the night.
The only thing that broke our trance was the maid entering the room.
"Ah, morning! We must hurry. You have guests."
"Clarine, can you please take care of our little 'sister'?" Honey requested as he hopped out of bed, leaving me alone in the giant bed. "She'll be staying home, resting up."
I gaped at Honey. His persona flipped. "Ma-chan, what would you like for breakfast?"
"..." I blinked a few times. "Erm... a parfait with a... few pancakes." I yawned and ran my fingers through my nest of hair. A little bird flew out crying.
Gape. Wha~?
Everyone was silent as the little bird flew around crying about the destruction of its home.
"You didn't lay any eggs right?"
The bird confirmed with a melancholic tweet. I brushed my hair for a few minutes.
Apparently I shed enough hair to make a small songbird's nest.
"Here." I groaned, laying the ball of hair neatly next to the bird. "Go build a home else where with that."
It tweeted happily and flew out the open window with my hair.
I patted my head head down neatly to make sure it wasn't messy or bird nest material.
Everyone looked at me with a 'did that really just happen?' look. "Don't you have guests waiting? " I growled.
Honey blushed and left with Mori stumbling behind him. Clarine blinked and came towards me. "So uh... how about a shower and a good hair washing?"
"That would be nice."
Honey POV
I walked down the stairs in my school uniform with Takashi right behind me. He was scolding me about what happened last night and about how I was going to have to tell the twins. I only told him that I'd tell when Ma-chan was ready.
My eyes landed on a pissed Ariel and a few of her fan girls. "Take me to the tramp."
I glared at her and simply stood firmly. "She's not here."
"Oh really?" She smirked.
I crossed my arms. "..."
"BITCH GET DOWN HERE! I KNOW YOU SLEPT WITH THESE TWO TWIPS!"
I gaped at the giant storm cloud rolling down the stairs revealing Ma-chan in her yellow uniform. "What did you just call me?"
I heard more footsteps and saw the twins come running inside my house. "Mariko!" Kaoru panicked.
"You heard me!" Ariel continued. "I didn't stutter!"
"No, but once I punch you in the jaw you will." She hissed; each step she made made the earth cower in fear.
"Do it."
At school...
Mariko's POV
Hikaru was wheeling me to my classroom while Kaoru carried my stuff.
"Did you really have to send her to the hospital?" Hikaru sighed.
I ignored him and tried for the umpteenth time to maneuver my wheelchair by myself.
"Mariko!" He hissed, jerking the chair carefully. I growled and crossed my arms. "Can we at least talk?"
"Brother... I think we should just give her some space." Kaoru sighed.
I put down the kickstand and stood up desperately and limped away.
During my attempt to flee I twisted my shattered ankle, sat down, and cried. It wasn't even the cute cry. It was hideous. It transformed from a shriek of pure terror to a howl of pure misery. People stopped what they were doing and watched me. Hikaru deadpanned and picked up bridal style and carried me off of school campus. "Why must you be so difficult?"
"I'm not difficult." I whined.
"Kaoru and I are trying to help you and you won't let us."
"Why won't you idiots leave me alone?!"
"WHY WON'T YOU LET US HELP YOU?!"
"STOP YELLING AT ME!"
"MARIKO!"
I frowned and glared at Hikaru. "..."
Kaoru glared at me as Hikaru threw me on the grass. "No one is yelling at you. J-Just calm down. We love you, okay?"
I eyed him curiously, before letting my walls fall. "Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
They both looked at me with wide eyes.
"You two do realize she's on some heavy pain medication, right?" Honey commented.
My fiancés sighed. "How long has it been since we've had our Mariko with us..."
"About a week." Kyoya replied, appearing where we were outside.
"..."
I looked at the guys drowsily as their words turned into slurs, and my world began to blur. "Uh... guys-" I wheezed before collapsing.
My whole world was black within seconds.
*Time skip*
I woke up in a familiar bed feeling much better and in control of my emotions, then... whenever I was last awake. What's today? Everything hurts... "HEY!" I shouted to no one in particular.
"What's wrong?"
I eyed Kaoru curiously. He eyed me back and huffed before laying back down.
"Kaoru why are you sleeping on the floor?"
"Because we aren't married yet and I don't wanna hurt your ankle."
"Oh, you don't wanna hurt my ankle." I mumbled. The rest of his excuse was BS.
He growled about me waking up in the wee hours of the morning, and I whacked him with a pillow. "Where is Hikaru?"
"He's dealing with mom right now."
"Why?"
"Do you want us to marry Ariel?"
"No..."
"Then okay then."
"Kaoru, that didn't explain anything."
He sat up and looked at me dementedly. Good morning to you, Mr. Smexy~ "He's handling stuff while I'm taking care of you."
"Okay... so while Hikaru is preventing incest, what exactly have you done for me?"
"I bathed you, fed, clothed, didn't rape you-"
"Eh-"
"I think you take my self-control for granted." he stared at me darkly through the hair in his face. "Do you know how hard it is for a starving lion to ignore a limping antelope?"
"I thought I was more of a gazelle..."
He pounced on the bed and pinned me to the sheets. "It all tastes the same." he whispered into my ear.
"Okay. You do a lot. Enough, really."
He chuckled and kissed me. My eyes widened.
Flick.
"KAORU!"
We both froze, instantly identifying my future-mother-in-law's voice.
I shrieked as the lights blinded me. Hikaru tossed his brother off of me and smirked down at me. "I can understand why his self-control faltered."
"Yes, she is very attractive, but the girl is crippled. Let her heal first."
"Wahhh. Mom!"
"You're lucky I'm even letting you sleep in here!" she snapped, hitting him with her slipper. "I should make you sleep outside!"
Kaoru stopped talking and whimpered at me. "Mariko~"
I ignored him and in my blush in the pillow next to me. "So... is Ariel okay?"
Their mom busted out laughing and grinned at me. "That girl is back on tour. She won't be back in about two years, so you better make a long-lasting imprint on my two stupid children."
"But I thought she had a neck brace and two broken legs, and a black eye, and a few missing teeth, AND a bald spot."
She started laughing harder. "When you have money, you can be the most beautiful woman in the universe."
"Oh..."
"Let me say, no one in my family has ever had the guts to beat the girl."
"..." I reddened.
"And you really did mop the floor with her... Ahahahahaha. I like you." she left the room, and I just sat there feeling accomplished.
"She likes me..." I grinned happily.
Hikaru and Kaoru both stared at me with a 'I can't believe my eyes' kind of look.
"What?" I asked curiously, glancing at them wearily. They both smirked and turned off the lights.
From downstairs...
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH! NO! STOP! NYAHHHH!"
"YOU'RE TOO LOUD!"
"WAHHHH!"
"MARIKO!"
"HIKARU!"
"KAORU!"
Renge popped up from the floor in front of the Twin's mother. "SO! The twins are pretty 'occupied'." she winked playfully.
"How did you get into my house."
Renge ignored the question and continued talking to the readers... "You know! The Author, Mickimomo is a bit sad that she isn't getting a lot reviews..."
"You know why else she's upset?"
Renge continued to talk. "Well... uh, back to you Tamaki!"
Upstairs...
"Hello, reporting live from Upstairs!"
A pillow flew at the cameraman and a thud echoed through the floor.
Downstairs...
"HEY IF YOUR GONNA HAVE- *cough* KEEP IT DOWN!"
"YES MA'M!"
"SORRY MOM!"
BAM. Silence.
