Why Did I Fall In Love With You?!

Chapter 4

Miyuki looked like hell, not only that, she felt like hell too when she returned to the Head Quarters for her patrol duties. Her eyes were red and puffy, her face was pale, unnaturally pale. She walked in, and walked towards Abe.

"Abe…" she said quietly, touching his shoulder. Abe turned around, a smile on his face.

"Takeda! Ho-" he stopped in middle sentence when he saw her face. His eyes widened.

"T-Takeda! What's wrong?! Daijoubu?!" he asked, a concerned edge to his voice. She shook her head.

"I'm fine…" she said dryly. Abe shook his head.

"No, Takeda you look very sick!" he said. He reached his hand up to her cheek, and felt. She had a fever!

"You're going home to rest!" he ordered.

She shook her head, "n-" she was about to protest, and she fell, and passed out from the fever.

"Miyuki, Miyuki! Come on, wake up!"

Miyuki groaned, and fidgeted, but complied, and opened her blue eyes. The first thing she was Abe's face leaning over her.

"Abe, What the hell?!" she said, and sat up quickly, only to have a hand land onto her forehead, and push her back down.

"No, no, no, Miyuki!" Abe scolded. Miyuki reached up and hit him in the mouth.

"Ow!" Abe complained, as he held put his hand over his mouth.

"You recover fast!" Abe muttered angrily.

"Don't use my real name baka! Anyone could-"

"Not hear," he corrected her hastily, glaring at her, his hand still covering his mouth.

"What are you talk-"

"You're in your own house, Miyuki!"Abe snapped angrily. Miyuki glared.

"Well la-di-da, Abe! I passed out in head quarters! I thought I was at head quarters! CONSIDERING I PASSED OUT THERE!!!!!!!" She barked. Abe glared, and so did Miyuki. They glared and glared and glared. They glared until they finally had to blink. After blinking a bit, Miyuki realized something; she had a white Yukata on.

"Abe…who…changed my clothes…?" she asked stealthily. She looked at his very red face.

"Um…"

"PERVERT!!!!" she accused. She stood up, and swung her foot back to try and kick him in the stomach…again.

"There was no one else here, Miyuki!!!!" Abe defended, blocking his stomach.

"You could have asked the lady that lives right next to me! You know she is my friend!" she yelled, looking for an opening to kick him.

"Miyuki ! Please! I didn't do anything ! All I did was put the Yukata on! Please! I didn't do anything!" Abe exclaimed.

A dark look consumed her face and she said, "I don't give a crap…you could have asked the lady next door…" she said coldly. Abe stayed quiet, knowing she was right.

"So I am right…" she said darkly, and smirk on her face, and her bangs shadowed her eyes, "PERVERT!!!!!!!!" she screamed, and lunged at Abe.

"Abe would you like some rice?" Miyuki asked sweetly, smiling at him. Abe just nodded, not being able to smile from the huge dark bruise on his face that was swollen like a baseball. He sighed as she handed him some in a small bowl with wooden chopsticks. It hurt to chew, but he managed. He saw Miyuki raise her hand out of the corner of his eye. Suddenly he jumped back, and into the corner.

"Don't hurt me! Miyuki! Please don't hurt me!" he cried, cowering into the corner. He waited for the impact of her fist, but it never came. He lifted his head slightly from the position on his knees. He saw her frozen in place, staring at him with a bewildered look. He followed the direction of her hand…that was only going to reach for the fan that hung on her wall.

"Uh…" she said blankly.

"S-sorry…I I thought you were going to beat me up again…." He said quietly. He heard Miyuki sigh.

"Stop being so silly, Abe, I only beat you up because you were being a pervert," she said, amusement in her voice. Abe's eyes narrowed.

'Why that litt-' he was cut off from his thoughts by someone knocking at the door.

"Abe? Takeda?" sounded Waka's voice from behind the door. Both of them froze.

"Crap!" Miyuki whispered. Abe nodded in agreement. Miyuki was dressed in a kimono, and her hair was let down. If Waka came in here, he'd surely know 'Takeda' was actually a girl! Abe quickly got up, and pulled Miyuki over to her futon.

"What are you doing?!" she whispered harshly, as Abe grabbed her hair, and Tao helmet.

"I'm going to save your gender!" he whispered back as put the helmet on, keeping her hair neatly tucked up.

"Climb into the futon, and pretend you're asleep!" he ordered. She stared at him blankly.

"What th-" she said about to protest, but Abe covered her mouth.

"Just do it!" she sighed, and layed down, making sure the blanket of the futon covered her Kimono, and she kept her face burrowed into her pillow.

"Abe? Takeda? Open up please, I have news!" Waka said. Abe quickly stumbled over to the door. He opened the door and smiled stealthily.

"Ah! Captain Waka! How are you on this fine afternoon? What can I do for you?" Abe asked, his eyes twitching with stress.

Waka's eyes widened when he saw the bruise on Abe's face, "Abe! Where did that bruise come from?!" he asked, concern in his eyes.

Abe smiled nervously while looking sheepish, "I…tripped…" he answered, and gave him a smile.

Waka gave him an odd look, but smiled back, "I have news for Takeda, how is he?" he asked. Abe looked back at the futon Miyuki layed in.

"Uh…he…he is sleeping at the moment," he stuttered, horribly lying. Waka stared at him blankly.

"I…see…" he answered, becoming slightly suspicious.

"Uh…what was the…news…? Oh I am being rude! Come in!" Abe said.

'Baka…' Miyuki thought angrily in her mind. She could hear two pairs of footsteps come inside her small hut.

Waka looked around, and then spotted Miyuki on the futon.

'I don't know why, but everything seems odd with the two right now…' Waka thought stealthily.

"Captain Waka, what is the news?" Abe asked nervously.

"Oh, um, oui, I know I wasn't supposed to give out this information until tomorrow, but I think Takeda should know beforehand," Waka explained, still looking around the house.

"Um, hai, what is this information you are going to give?" Abe questioned, his eyes wide.

"I have chosen Takeda to be the Tao apprentice to accompany moi on my mission," he said simply, turning his gaze to Abe, giving him a smile.

'WHAT??????!!!!!!!!!' Miyuki thought, panicked.

Abe was just as shocked.

"Oh, um, wow…" Abe said, his eyes bugging out of his head.

"Oui, I need Takeda to come to the head quarters tomorrow, so I can tell him, then we must go see Queen Himiko," he explained.

"Um..okay…" Abe answered. Waka smiled at him.

"Good, tell Takeda when he wakes up, au revoir!" Waka said, and then, walked out of the door, closing it behind him.

"M-Miyuki…you can…wake up now…" Abe stuttered.

Suddenly Miyuki had her fists balled up in fists of his shirt, clenching it.

"DID HE JUST SAY WHAT I THINK HE JUST SAID!!!!!!!!!!!" She exclaimed.

"H-hai…" he answered. All the sudden Miyuki fell back, passing out once again.

"Oi! Miyuki! Miyuki!" Abe called.
