Hey, here's chapter 10. Yuu has some fun(get your head out of the gutter) with the soldiers and we also see how Yuu feels for Mika. I do not own Seraph of the End, Snow White or any songs I am using. Doing this for fun. Enjoy!
Chapter 10
The Story of Our Love
Back at the home of the ex-soldiers, you can hear merriment being played in the single room as the soldiers made music with Guren strumming a cello, Goshi blowing through a flute, Kimizuki playing his organ with the wooden pipes to look like singing angels when their keys are being played, Yoichi strumming on a ukulele, Mitsuba playing the accordion, Shinoa beating her drum set, Yuichiro smiling and clapping along and Shinya dancing around the room, moving as if he is skating on ice.
Approaching Yuu as he ceased his clapping, Shinya clears his throats before singing:
I'd like to dance
and tap my feet
But they won't keep in rhythmn
You see, I washed 'em both today
and I can't do nothin' with 'em
This had made Yuu laugh before Guren and the others start to sing.
Ho-hum, the tune is dumb
The words don't mean a thing
Isn't this a silly song
for everyone to sing?
As Kimizuki made a good tune with his organ, Shinoa did a playful solo on her drums with the finish being a clash. With Yoichi and Shinya pushing her forward as they and a few others laugh mildly, Mitsuba does her singing, a little bit of a nervous blush on her cheeks.
I chased a polecat up a tree
Way out upon a limb
And when she got the best of me
I got the worst of her
Grabbing her accordion so she can continue playing, the other soldiers sing again.
Ho-hum, the tune is dumb
The words don't mean a thing
Isn't this a silly song
for everyone to sing?
Enjoying the fun atmosphere, Yuu lets out a couple laughs as Shinya stands before him, yodelling with Yuu vocalizes the music with his sing-song voice. Then one by one starting with Guren, the soldiers would offer a square dance with Yuichiro.
As the music play on, Yuu once again felt like he was having fun just like he had as a child with Mikaela.
Suddenly the music had stopped when everyone in the room saw that Yoichi has a big one coming. Immidiately, Kimizuki, Shinoa and Mitsuba hide behind his organ, Guren, Shinya and Goshi took cover behind the sofa, and Yuu steps back with his ears covered. After a moment, Yoichi lets out a wind storm of a sneeze, causing him to flutter to the floor like a feather, which made everyone laugh while Kimizuki help Yoichi to his feet.
Once the laughing fits died down, Yuu says as he sits back in a chair, the smile remaining, "That was fun."
Now calm, Shinya points towards the prince, saying with his usual grin on his face, "Now you do something."
"Well, what shall I do?" Yuu asks, wondering what he could do for his friends.
"Tell us a story." Goshi suggests and immediately the others agree with the request which made Yuu smile.
"Tell a true story." Shinya suggests.
"Make it a true love story." Mitsuba adds and at once everyone sat in front of Yuu with their significant other next to them.
Upon hearing this request, Yuichiro figured it is time he told them about him and Mika, which brought a smile to his face at the warm memories of their childhood together. "Once there was a young prince." Yuu begins as the memories appear in his mind's eye.
"Were you that prince?" Guren asks as he wraps an arm around Shinya who cuddled more into his chest.
Yuu nods once and continues, "And he fell deeply in love with a boy he knew since they were both kids."
"What was it like when you fell in love?" Yoichi asks out of curiosity.
"It felt like I was an angel unfolding my wings for the very first time. Ever since we met on Christmas Day eight years ago, we've had a very powerful bond that no one could ever hope to come in between, not even my stepfather." Yuu says softly as he held his hands to his ever softly beating heart that only beats for Mika as he thought about the time they had reunited after being apart for four years.
"There is no one in the entire universe that could make my heart beat so softly and feel warm whenever I am with him or think of him." Yuu adds as he glances out to the night sky, thinking that they are meant to be thanks to the heavens.
"Did your prince say he loves you?" Shinoa asks as she fiddled with a few hair strands as she and Mitsuba snuggle close together.
"Did he steal a kiss?" Shinya asks in a playful tease with Guren holding him close.
Yuu wished Mika had on the lips before he left.
He was so romantic
I could not resist
Yuu thinks about the warm embrace he and Mika had on the day he came for him after four years.
With everyone's full attention on him with Yoichi bringing a reluctant Kimizuki to sit beside him as Yuu tells them more about the prince he loves and one that loves him back.
Someday my prince will come
Someday we'll meet again
And away to his castle we'll go
To be happy forever
I know
Just the way Yuu sings about his love really warmed the hearts of all who heard. As his voice spread from the house to the outside world, deep within the woods, a certain blond prince could hear a beautiful, divine voice and the image of the owner immediately appears in his mind.
As he thought about his prince while listening to the voice he could never mistaken, Mika remains where he stands, beneath the moon and stars as they shine and sparkle to the song full of love.
Someday when spring is here
We'll find our love anew
And the birds will sing
And wedding bells will ring
Someday when my dreams
Come true
Yuu finishes the beautiful song as he thinks about the future he'll have with Mika, bringing a single tear to his eyes and a soft smile across his face.
I must say that this another favorite chapter I have done. If none of you don't remember the special moment between Yuu and Mika, refere back to chapter 3 One Song.
