A/N: This is an extra chapter that i thought was necessary for the continuation if this story. And of course i don't own anything other than the plot.
I thank everyone who took out time to read and review. ENJOY!
EXTRA: Afterthoughts (Usui's pov)
The ride back home was full of clashing thought trains, if that's the correct way to put it. It was just his body in this dimension, his mind in the parallel-much-thought-conflicting universe.
It was in the same occupied look that he entered hid home, well mansion really and went straight to his room. Without him noticing, he changed into his nightwear, which was divested of his shirt.
And with a small contented smile he lied down on his large fluffy bed and the thought train never had a jerk to stop its progression.
(POV begins)
'She was looking beautiful!' Wait! Am I really thinking that? Yes! She was looking beautiful, because she is beautiful, no doubt there. It was our first date today.
What the hell? Why this sudden change of interests? I agreed with grandfather's scheme of marrying a girl of high status. Perfect for the family! Perfect for the business! And of course the ticket to the future Walker generation! But Misaki? She is far from the person who could fulfill these quotas. Perfect for family? check. Perfect for business? No. High status? No. Ticket to the future generation, ugh! I don't want to label her as that!
But she was right. I don't see myself doing this with any other person! We have known each other lifelong, and spending the rest of it with some complete stranger is way worse than spending it with her. And it's not like I have to be in love with her. We are friends and will remain friends and figure this out. Somehow.
But I am missing the big picture, aren't I? Marriage, that's heavy. We both could be stuck in this with no way to get out. Knowing grandfather this IS a lifetime contract. He won't let her out if she wants to, somewhere down the road. But its Misaki, I took care of her since we were kids, I will set her free if she would want so, anyhow.
Knowing Misaki she has an aversion to powerful males, what with her father went through. And what with she went through because of him. Then why did she agree to marry me? Oh yes, convenience. Same reason as mine. But it is not so anymore. If it's her, I want her to be content and happy in her marriage.
But the question still remains, grandpa chose her because?
Ugh! I am pretty sure I won't be getting any sleep tonight. I will talk to grandpa tomorrow about his decision. He needs to know I don't see Misaki like the girls he sees fit for my wife. Maybe that's the reason he chose her, because he know I won't treat her like how I might have treated any other woman being my wife.
She is important to me. I have been there when her sister was born. I was there to see her break her arm, after all it was my bicycle she fell off. I was there to hold her through her violent sobs when her father left! Boy! Was she small and cute. Well I was small as well, I am barely an year older then her.
Come on Takumi! Are you really talking to yourself? He smiled thinking this. If Tora saw me like this, I'm sure he would say that I am possessed.
Maybe I'll ask her for another date soon.
He chuckled and tried to shut Misaki's laughter from his mind, he needed some rest and his childhood friend in this new light was not letting him be at ease.
I was right. You're sly Misaki!
So? How was it? What do you think will happen next? How will their relation progress? Any suggestion is definitely welcomed. Do review!
