Disclaimer: I do not own any of Loveless in any way.
I woke to the sound of a loud thud. I sat up slowly to find the source of noise, but only found a note. On the front it said Ritsuka I was afraid to open it and see the contents but I was more afraid of who it was from. I opened it anyway.
Dear Ritsuka,
I really want us to stay friends. Truly. But one thing I have to get out is that I did this to protect you. Never to hurt you. You mean too much to me. Meet me in the back of the house. I want to say the rest to your face. But mostly I am going to say Sorry. So please come out to the back of the house, if you are not out there by 10:00 am, I will understand that you don't want to talk to me. Love you forever.
Soubi
On the back was a heart. I was tempted to go and I knew I would go, but how would I know if this was Soubi or not. My heart believed fully that it was Soubi. But my brain overpowered for the moment and told me that it was most likely Seimei. I wanted to know who it was and what was true and what was a lie.
A knock on the door sounded, interrupting my train of thoughts. "Ritsuka? You awake?" I stayed silent and closed my eyes. The note was under my covers and hidden. Akari opened the door and walked in quietly. She laid down next to me. She wrapped her arms around me gently. I didn't know what to do but to stay still. She went under the covers and stayed there for what seemed like a million years. I heard a hum vibrating through me. I was shocked to realize that Akari was humming a tune that my mom used to sing to me all night long before anything happened.
She lightly pulled away but didn't leave. She even more softly got out of bed and padded to the middle of the room. I opened one of my eyes to see what she was doing. I was embarrassed to see that she was taking off a layer of clothing. She took off her main shirt and then her sweat pants. Leaving her with nothing but a tank top and underwear. I blushed and shut my eyes. I calmed myself and turned away making it seem like I did it in my sleep. She came over to my bedside and pulled the covers lightly away so she could snuggle in. I looked over at the clock on my bedside table. It read 5:23.
Why was she here this early? Why did she take off her half of her clothing. Isn't is inappropriate for me to see this at my age? She fell asleep next to me with her arms wrapped around my chest. A soft snore came from her sleeping form. I turned my head to see her face. It looked even more cute than when she was awake. A soft ache in my chest started. My heartbeat quickened. Ba- bump Ba- bump. What was this? What was happening? I was scared of this thing in my chest. This was one of those feelings that I got from Soubi. What was that emotion? Oh, yeah, love. I was nervous to see that I had loved Soubi but now Akari? I was in big trouble now.
A few hours later I woke up to see Akari in the middle of the floor pulling up her pants. She saw me looking and blushed.
"Uh, it's not what it looks like!" She zipped the pants zipper up. I turned away.
"It's okay. It's better than you being naked." I snapped my mouth shut realizing what I just said. I blushed hard and heard her giggle. I turned to see her two feet away, laughing hard.
"Your right. It is better that I'm not naked." She turned toward the door. "By the way, I love you." She ran out the room not giving me a chance to respond. The door slammed shut by the force of her shove on the door.
I looked at the clock. It read 9:08. I sat up feeling a little bit better than the couple days before. I found myself at the dresser pulling out a pair of pants. I shoved them on and then pulled on a loose shirt.
I walked to the door. I heard a plate break in the kitchen and rushed out of the door slamming behind me. I walked hastily through the halls and into the kitchen door. Akari was crouched on the floor picking up shards of a plate and putting them in the garbage. Food was splattered all over the floor that obviously was on the plate when it fell.
I walked over to her side and started helping her pick them up. She looked at me shocked. She blushed. "N-No I can do this by myself." She stammered. I had giggle and smiled.
"No it's alright besides I owe you from when you took care of me for the past two weeks. I noticed that there were at least a dozen flowers and cards from all of me and Yuiko's school friends. I wondered what they think happened to us.
We finished picking up all the pieces. She thanked me and turned towards the door. "No! Wait, Akari. Please don't go not yet. I wanted to tell you that I appreciate that you 'love' me but I still can't be sure about what I feel yet." I walked toward her and pulled her into a hug. How come I can say 'love' so easily? I wondered about that for the next couple minutes awkwardly holding her.
She looked into my eyes and probably saw me looking shy. I didn't know what to do when she leaned in to me and gently touched her lips to mine. Her tongue forced my mouth to open and I responded shocked. The thing is I didn't want her to stop. I pulled her closer to me and snuggled in close to her. She sighed and kissed me more deeply, but not as deep as Soubi. Soubi.My mind snapped and I pulled away. She looked at me and then blushed. I realized that I too was blushing and turned away. I looked at the clock. It read 9:57. I rushed an a apology and ran out of the door leading outside. I ran down the steps two at a time. Yuiko waved to me. I stopped for a split second to wave at her. She smiled and rushed over. But I ran off towards the back of the house. A shadow was displayed in the splattered sun spots that shined through the trees.
I ran over there and put on my serious face. The old grandfather clocked chimed and sounded 10.
Well how'd you like it? Eh? Well review and tell me what you think. I have writers block. :| It sucks. But i'll try and get the next one written and out as quickly as possible.
Love'
