Tsubaki opened her eyes, slowly, afraid to wake up and realize she was alone. "Muhhh..?" She propped herself up on an elbow and looked around grogily, laying her eyes on a green-haired alien-eared boy munching on a peice of bread. "Kish-kun?"
He looked at her, stunned, before smiling. "Sorry, Tsubaki-san, you just suprised me. Didn't expect you tp wake up so soon!" He said, taking another bite of his bread. Tsubaki saw a huge plate with at least twenty peices of white bread stacked on top of each other. 'Why does he have so many? He isn't going to eat all that, right?' Tsubaki wondered. "Sorry that I startled you..."
"It's S'okay," He paused to swallow ", How are you feeling?"
"F-Fine..I'm fine!" Tsubaki said, her cheeks burning with a blush.
"Are you sure? Your face is all red. Do you have the flu? That disease is common here, my father died a couple years back with the flu. We didn't have any medicine so it just got worse until he died." He said, glancing at her ever so often as he wrapped the remaining bread in a cheap plastic wrap. He stuck a note on the bread and stood up from the chair, walking over to the bed to sit beside Tsubaki.
"Why did you wrap so many peices?" Tsubaki asked.
"Hm?" He glanced at the bread. " I was going to send it to the reservations for my brother and sister. I mean, if that's okay with you?" Kish looked at her with eyes that were almost pleading. She saw pain flash upon his deep amber eyes. Did he really think she was that cruel? Tsubaki cleared her throat and looked down beofer speaking, "N-No. I don't mind at all, really!"
Kish smiled and said, "Thanks, Tsubaki-chan!"
Tsubaki took a deep breath as she stood up from her king sized bed. "Wanna go somewhere with me?" She didn't know why it was so hard to ask. I mean...he was there for her yesterday so...
"Go where?" The green-haired alien prince asked.
"To view my parent's body.." The blue-haired alien princess said, boldly.
Kish smiled and took her hand in his. "I'd love to go with you."
Her cheeks flushed and they teleported to the house of the old man who makes the coffins. The house was small. People on their planet didn't have much.
They walked in without permission since the girl was already to be expected. The first thing they saw was a white sheet over two bodies on a big wooden table. Tsubaki broke into sobs.
A old man popped his head around the corner. "Oh. Princess Tsubaki-sama! Nice to see you." The old dude wore a top hat with stringy white hair sticking out. He had on a over coat and a dress shirt with brown pants. No shoes. "How are you holding up," He looked at Kisshu. Kisshu straightned up self-conciously and looked at Tsubaki's head. ", Who is this young man?"
Kisshu cleared his throat. "My name is Prince Kisshu."
"Oh, I see! You're the new adopted prince! My greatest apoligizes!" The man bowed but Kisshu waved his hands. "No no no! It's fine!"
He smiled. "My name is Old Man Gilbert. Nice to meet you Prince Kisshu-sama." They shook hands and walked over to the corpses.
Old Man Gilbert pointed a shaking hand over to two very well-built coffins. They were neatly designed with all kinds of colors and swirls. Kisshu ran his fingers through Tsubaki's hair as tears ran freely down her flushed cheeks. That's one of the reasons Kisshu liked about her, she didn't bottle up her feelings like all the others. "I measured them to fit perfectly in the coffins. I need some information about the dressings. Do you want me to support them with clothes, which is a black dress for the Queen and a black suit for the King, or you could bring them something from the kingdom chambers?"
"Umm, just the black dress and suit is fine, like everyone else." Tsubaki said lightly touching her mother's cheek with the tips of her fingers. Kisshu smiled at her.
2 years later!
"K-Kisshu...are you sure you want to leave?" An thirteen year old Tsubaki asked with a stinging pain in her eyes. Kisshu and Tsubaki were standing in front of each other, their hands tangled together, a red rose on one of Kisshu's hands.
"Sorry, Tsubaki but I need to do this to save our planet." Kisshu said.
Tsubaki sniffled. "B-But.."
Kish smile and let go of her hands to bring her closer in a hug that warmed Tsubaki's heart. Tears flowed freely down her face, soaking the shoulder of Kisshu's coat. "Tsubaki..I..I need you to understand. I'm doing this for our species. Please understand. I can't leave you with a broken heart."
"I-I understand but will you promise me something?" Tsubaki choked on her words with sorrowfull sobs.
"Anything for my princess."
"Be safe..and come back to me. To us."
He hugged her tighter. "Promise accepted." They parted and Kisshu held up the red rose. "Here is a infinity rose. This will be like a signed document of our promise. Keep it." Tsubaki felt a huge wave of doubt in his words but shook it off. She had to believe in her friend.
"Kay." She looked up at the huge spaceship behind of her love. It was buzzing, it was ready to go. To take him away. Her Kisshu. Her love. Her...best friend.
"I'm going to miss you though."
"Yeah. Don't worry. I'll be back, like I said, honey."
"Okay, well, you promised. If you don't come back to me, I'll get you."
"Hah, nice. As I said before, don't worry, sweet-heart."
"Whatever." Kisshu smiled and kissed the corner of her mouth.
"I love you, Tsubaki."
She clutched onto his coat, above his heart and edged her face close to his, breath hitting. "Me too."
Their lips collided for the last time for a long time.
Haruko: I'm a total cheat. I snuck on the computer when my mom wasn't looking.
Kish: She's supposed to be grounded. -_-
Haruko: Mhmmm, my mom found my dirty kisshu drawing. ( I SHOW NO ONE )
