I have been literally slowly updating this, but trying as hard as I can to update it. Working on the other two fanfics and trying to pretty much end my DRAMAtical InSaNiTy fanfic so I can finish it. It is already at its end and I'm pretty happy that some readers enjoyed it. This story is about to end as well. So, hope this next chapter pumps you up for another update after this.

Chapter 10 : Mr. Terashima

After leaving Haru's event and going straight home, my mind felt dead already. Haru messed up trying to give us both trouble and heading into an arrange marriage. How can his stupid brain not function properly and think of that? Then I thought about what were Haru's feelings. Could he have some sort of feelings for me? No. Wait. That can't be right. I used to like him before back when we were in high school and right now, it's not even like that anymore. Rin appeared in my mind suddenly and I shook it off right away. All of a sudden the entrance door slammed opened and I jumped off the couch and stood up. Rin came around the room and then stood still when he saw me.

"Uh..hey.."I said with a shaky voice. Which that shouldn't happen.

Rin looked pissed for some reason and I couldn't tell why. Whoops. Did I just go home without him? Oh well. He suddenly walked up to me and grabbed me by the wrist, pulling me to his room and throw me on his bed instantly and then went over to his door and locked it. I tried to get up but he rushed to grab me again and pinning me down, as my stomach was lying flat on the bed. My hand was behind my back and he handcuffed me from behind.

"What the hell, Rin! What is your problem? Get me out of this now!"

"Oh. Little bitch here is planning to have an arrange marriage with Haru!"

"Did you just….motherfucker…get off and let me explain!"

"Nope. Not until I hurt your insides first!"

Seriously! I put all my strength into getting him off me to where he fell off the bed and accidentally hitting the side table with his head. Oh fuck. Maybe that was a little bit too hard. I grabbed the key that he just left on the side and unlocked myself to grab a hold of him and held his head.

"Sorry, Rin…I didn't mean to.."

"Oww.."

He opened his eyes and then he looked at me. I rubbed his bump and got up to get some ice and came back with it to place it on his head. He closed his eyes again, feeling in pain and I rolled my eyes.

"You have a misunderstanding about this whole thing, Rin."

Rin didn't even bother speaking. I continued to talk.

"I'm guessing you overheard what Haru had said. It was a mistake and of course we wouldn't get married. I look at him as a brother. He just said that out of nowhere and now we dig deeper into making sure we fix this problem with his parents." I said while slowly patting the ice on his head. Rin sighed and then held my hand.

"Sorry, I got really mad about it and I took it out on you. I'm surprised for a small figure like you was able to push me off like that."

"My bad, Rin."

Rin got up slowly and we sat next to each other.

"Aya, I think Haru likes you as well. Maybe the reason why he hasn't actually got a girlfriend because, he likes you. Don't you even feel that?"

My eyes went wide and I put a finger on my chin.

"I don't think so..Rin. To be honest, I did like him before but now it's different. I don't see him that way."

Rin looked at me with an expression that was unknown. Even though Rin and I did have sex together that one time, it really didn't mean something. Rin kind of scooted away from me a bit and put his head on his knees. What kind of reaction was that? Did Rin really have feelings for me as well? I'm already confused with the whole situation and I didn't really know what to do. Everything blanked out in my brain that I just don't want to deal with any of the guys right now. I did get myself into this mess, and I can't back away anymore. If I never met them all, maybe this situation wouldn't have been too much of a drama. After everything went silent, the next few days Rin and I didn't speak. I guess he was really pissed off or that he was going into this depression mode. I tried to cook for him. I tried making him smile but nothing was working. I got tired of it and just left to do what I wanted to do. I'm still single and it wasn't as if he was supposed to always watch me. I guess I can call myself the most messed up woman in the planet. I finally got a part-time job as an assistant artist for a teacher at a university. Yeah, I'm also continuing to do my classes but at the same time I needed to be able to get money of my own. It seemed like I was trying to work things out with myself and not worry about the event that happened recently. Rin and I didn't speak, I wasn't caring anymore. To think that I actually had feelings for that guy, felt like it was just less of a one day thing. I got into a coffee shop just to meet with two others who were my friends from back then, and we caught up and talked about each other lives and then went our separate ways. There were days I got to meet up with Nagisa and Rei but I was like a fifth wheeler because they were with their girlfriends most of the time. Days started to feel really lonely now since everyone seems to have someone and that everyone was busy. It started to get dark out and I started walking home. There was some wild party that was happening and I tried to quickly walk past it but these guys came up to me with beer bottles in their hand and stopped my way.

"What's a pretty lady doing around here so late at night?"

The guys breath stinks so bad that I covered my nose.

"I'm just heading home right now."

Some of the guys started coming over and started to giggle. I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms. I held my bag close to me, too.

"You ain't from around here are you?"

"It's none of your concerns."

The guy that continued to talk to me had started to touch my hair and I pushed him away. I started to run and they were after me this time. I ran through some alley way and I noticed how I just got to the area where late night owls would stay around. It was the red light district area we all went to the first time I came here. I started pushing random boxes in the way to stop their path and not to noticed I hit a pole without even thinking where I was going. I touched my face and looked up to see five guys towering over me.

"You know what to do boys, when you see a woman vulnerable like this, we get that prey."

My eyes went wide but I closed it right away. I held the bag in front of my face and covered myself. Why didn't I fight back? Why didn't I do something? I started to remember a memory this time and it started to scare me.

"Oh…look at how beautiful her breast are."

"STOP!"

I was being touched by hungry perverts and I held a knife at one of them and stabbed one in the back while the other guy who tried to make a move, I hit him in the balls. I grabbed my friend who was also being harassed and we would run for our lives. She was scared and I was scared. The guys had a gun and it killed one of the friends I tried to save. During that time I got so angry and I went back and started to make a fight with the guys. The flashback ended and I opened my eyes and tried to grab a hold of one of the guys by throwing a sharp object that was near me and threw it at his face. I was able to escape at least and I kept running. More of the guys came and I was literally running for my life. I wasn't the old me back then but I knew how to protect myself. I suddenly get inside a store that was still open for the night and find myself turning around near the person in front of me.

"Aya…what the heck?"

"Sousuke!"

When I saw Sousuke, I didn't know what went through my mind and I instantly hugged him right away. I started to tear up and just held him close to me. I felt his body twitch a little bit, and knowing him, it must have felt awkward for him to be hugged by me at this moment.

"Hey, let's go somewhere. You are making a big awkward scene right now."

He held me still and led me somewhere in the shop where we can both sit down and talk. He pats my head once I sat down and then across from me.

"Were you being chased out in the night?"

"You can read me perfectly."

"Yeah. Of course I would."

I hear him sigh and then I just crossed my arms and lean back on the chair. Sousuke who took out his phone and started texting someone and I'm pretty sure it was to his fiancé. I know his fiance didn't want me to be around Sousuke or the fact I was around Rin's surroundings. I put my face on the table and I hear Sousuke.

"I swear, you never change, Aya. Always trying to be the tough one and next thing you know you become weak as fuck."

"Shut your trap."

We both laughed together at our stupid comments and then Sousuke put his phone down on the table and I just looked at him. He looked at me seriously this time and then took a deep breath.

"It's probably none of my business, but what is your relationship with Rin at this point?"

Huh? I blinked my eyes for a bit at that question. That was a weird question to ask out of nowhere.

"We don't have any specific relationship, so there really isn't anything."

Sousuke glared at me and I kind of sat straight on the chair. I put both of my hands down on my lap right away and I didn't let my eyes wonder off. My brown eyes had looked straight at his blue ones and he made an expression, as if I won't tell him anything.

"From what Rin had told me, you guys did...it."

"NO WAY! HE TOLD YOU!"

I stood up from my chair and I can feel that my face flustered quickly. Sousuke laughed a little and then raised both his hands in the air.

"Hey. Hey. Take a seat, crazy. Don't be so loud."

I sat back down and then began to pay attention to what Sousuke was going to say next. I shouldn't be surprised that Rin would tell anyone. Sousuke is pretty much his best friend and Rin trusts him with anything. Well, from what I think, wouldn't it be better if he hadn't told my ex-boyfriend? It's kind of...wrong. To be honest, Rin is the first to have done that to me and letting an ex know that could kind of start something. Sousuke looked calm though, so maybe it isn't a big problem.

"Aya, are you going to get engaged with Haru?"

"Oh? You heard that, too?"

"Thanks to Rin's ass. He was the one eavesdropping and got really pissed about it. There was no way to keep him calm when he is pissed."

I gave out a sigh and crossed my arms.

"He made a fit about it the other night and I almost hurt him really bad."

"Figures."

No more words were being exchanged for a few minutes and then Sousuke started to speak again.

"Maybe you should consider Rin's feelings. He may look like the type of guy who would just make a move instantly and then leave but I think the feelings he has for you right now is something real. To be honest, he is a good guy, Aya. Why don't you give him a chance?"

"hmmmm.."

I would but the back of my mind is stuck on just being single for awhile. I didn't want to deal with any relationships and start the whole love mode and then end up the way I was back when I dated Sousuke. Sousuke suddenly scoots his chair over to me and then put a hand on my shoulder.

"At least I'm saying this as a friend and not a guy from your past. It's a new beginning and I think it would be alright for you both to hook up."

"Shut it. After what we had done, who knows what can happen. I don't know him too well. I don't want to just like be with him and then all of a sudden, drop him. Plus, I have the whole Haru problem and then I wouldn't know what the whole group would say."

Sousuke raised his eyebrow and then hit me in the back.

"OW!"

"Stop being negative! I swear I'm dealing with two idiots who can't even go for anything. I'm an engaged man who has to take care of two kids who can't follow their hearts for once."

Sousuke pushed me and I almost fell off the chair and I pushed him back for that stupid move. I hated the fact that Sousuke was pushing me to be with a man. Wouldn't he at least like tell me something else? I guess not. Sousuke was going to be married to that woman. Makoto was taken by a beautiful girl, and here I am almost going into a mistake arrange marriage and probably does have feelings for that jealous shark. I felt my chest this time, trying to feel what I really felt. I lay my head on the table and all Sousuke could do was pat me on the back. I had to make a decision soon so after that whole meeting with Sousuke, I headed back home. Rin didn't seem like he was home once I got back so I just went straight to my room. I sat on my bed just thinking about it. How do you even confess? Was I even ready to go forward with it? I felt like I had two sides in me just ready to either speak about it with him or that I should just try to move on. I knew I was lying to myelf that I didn't like him but I actually did. The thing is though, I didn't want to move into it too fast because I didn't want that. That's what Sousuke and I went through. I hear the front door open slowly, and I got up instantly and went out my door. I see Rin slowly coming inside, dropping his keys on the table and then feeling his hair. It looked like he went swimming. He was stretching his arms above his head and literally taking his shirt off. I was about to walk off but instead I was staring hard. He still looked like he was still went from the pool. But I realized if he went swimming, wouldn't he do it in the backyard? I raised an eyebrow, trying to think where he went. I slowly try to walk towards the area he was in and he went into the kitchen. I continued to stare at him. He bended down trying to get a drink and I got a good look of his shapely looking ass. I turned away fast and almost knock something down behind me and covered my mouth. IDIOT! I looked back at him and he was chugging down some juice and then puts the carton down on the counter and leaned on it. He looked so focused over something that I was sure what he was thinking. He started to walk out of the kitchen and I literally was lost in thought that he finally bumped into me. Rin backed off quickly, and got a bit scared.

"What the hell, Aya? What are you doing just standing here?"

I started to wave my hands in the air and close my eyes. I really didn't know why I was acting like that but I had to say something. I really didn't have anything plan so I didn't know what the hell to do.

"RIN LET'S GO SOMEWHERE TOMORROW. ALONE!"

"HUH?!"

Rin literally poked my forehead and it made me back off for a bit. I felt my forehead and then he put one hand on his hips. He raised his eyebrow at me and I can see part of his sharky teeth showing.

"Like can we hang out? Or like go on a date?! Why am I yelling?!" I start to say and backed away even more. Rin looked really confused. I stared up at the clock and noticed how late it was and I was asking him at the wrong time.

"A date? You are asking me that now after-"

"Well, you know. It doesn't have to...I mean, we can like just hang out or something."

"Aya, really?"

I didn't like that tone that was coming out of his mouth and I started to fidget with my pointer fingers and felt the back of my head.

"I know. I know. I'm in some sort of mistake arrange marriage with Haru and I'm asking you out of nowhere. It's not like I'm going to just use you or anything, maybe it's a good time to….to start something, a little different."

I didn't bother to look at Rin this time and he crossed his arms.

"I don't know, Aya. After what you did to me, that hurt."

"THAT WAS AN ACCIDENT YOU RETARD!"

After I had yelled that out, flailing my arms everywhere, he grabbed a hold of my waist and pinned me on the side of the couch. He licked his lips and then stared at me with those maroon eyes of his.

"So….where does the shark bait wanna take me?"

His tone of voice had hit the spot right away and I was pushing him off me just with a little bit of strength and he was holding himself there, so he wouldn't even budge. Was this even right to be asking? We were not talking for a while and were doing our own things, so I wasn't sure if this was right. Ugh. What am I doing?

"Gah. Forget it. It doesn't seem like you want to go and right now you are just playing with me."

"I'm not. I'm just asking you, dumbass."

"Well this dumbass is just going to go to bed."

"Then I will join you."

My face went red and I hit him on his shoulder.

"SHUT UP!"

"NO YOU!"

What had happened after that? Well, nothing dirty happened. He accepted my offer to go on a date with him. I couldn't really say that it was a real date where we held hands or anything. It felt more like a hangout to me. Rin and I walked side by side while walking around the mall and entering stores. A lot of woman our age kept staring at him and whispering those sweet nothings about hows hot the man was. I looked over to Rin who was looking at some clothing, and waving a bit to the ladies who just stared. I don't know if I should feel jealous but I did glare a bit. Rin noticed me glaring and stick his tongue out at me and I flipped a middle finger at him. Rin whistled and I just facepalm. That was not what I was trying to say. The next thing we did was to get some crepes and enjoy some takoyaki together and went over to an expensive restaurant and finally decided to go to the amusement park. Our plans for this day wasn't even planned out and we just went straight to places without even thinking. When we got inside, we were surrounded by a lot of couple. Some were all holding hands and smiling. Some were arm in arm. Here Rin and I aren't even doing that. Not like we were actually dating. I made a pout face, telling myself, maybe this isn't my thing or something. But I still knew I still had some sort of feelings for Rin but it didn't want to come out or that I don't know how to express it well enough. Rin on the other hand, seemed like he was taking all this easily and that I was thinking way too much. We walked into a house of maze sort of thing but this was more of a haunted fun house. We both definitely heard screams from the deep within the place but it doesn't look like Rin looked scared. I was very used to random haunted house like this and I just put my hands in my pocket, just looking around at all the scary faces the amusement park had added.

"I'm surprised that a woman like you isn't even trying to hold my arm or squeezing me."

"Hmph. I've seen all of this already. I watch too many horror movies and scary games that I don't see this even scaring me."

"Oh really now?"

Rin suddenly disappeared from beside me and I stopped in my tracks. I turned around to see if he was behind me but he wasn't there.

"Rin?!" I started to yell out through the hallway. I crossed my arms and literally told myself he was probably hiding behind a door or something. All of sudden the lights went off and I literally fell to the floor.

"I can't even see."

I started to hear even more screams and I tried to grab on to something. I tried to use my phone light but knowing that I was using it, I really didn't want to waste the battery on it, just in case Rin and I get separated and we get lost. I reached out to something again and this time it felt like a bump. I started to squeeze it and I heard a weird moan.

"What in the..."

I stood up, grabbing a hold of it some more and then the light went on and I was wide eyed.

"AYA! THAT FUCKING HURTS!"

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

I started to scream at what I just did and I back away and suddenly hit someone else behind me. Once I looked back, it was some guy with a mask and had a knife in his hand and I literally grabbed a hold of Rin and we both started running off out of the place. Once we got out, we both sat on the bench to catch our breath.

"Omg….that...that was intense." I told him. I looked over at Rin who had his hands on his balls and I literally facepalm myself. I didn't even noticed it was him I was touching. Rin didn't look too well and I started to feel really bad. I gave out a sigh and then went in front of him and held him by his knees. He looked at me and I looked at him.

"Sorry, dude. I didn't mean to grab you at that spot. I couldn't even see. Out of all places don't suddenly disappear and then when stuff like that happens, you never know where you will be touched."

"Hmph. You probably did that on purpose."

I glared at him and pinched his nose.

"Excuse me, Mr. Shark. I never knew how weak you would be down there."

Rin stood up to me and closed his distance between our bodies and then he looked down at me with that look of his. My heart started to beat a little bit but I kept my cool and stared at him back.

"What? Something catch your tongue, Rin?"

"No. The little shark bait is being all up in my face again, and I kind of like where it's going."

He gave a smirk and I rolled my eyes, just pushing him away from me and he laughed. He ruffled my hair and then started to walk off. I followed him and we both walked side by side together once again.

"I was trying to give you a real scare when we were there."

"You pretty much suck at it."

Rin started to laugh and feel the back of his head. I giggled a bit and then to my surprise I made a move. It was honest and I wasn't lying about it either. I felt a bit jealous of how we were surrounded by others who were able to do those things and knowing that the fact I was the one who asked him out on this unusual date, I see my own hand holding his and I noticed he twitched at what I did.

"If this bugs you, I'm sorry. I just feel really safe if I held your hand like this Rin."

Rin was extremely quiet this time and he just stood there. I was about to just let go but he held on tighter. Rin suddenly had a smile across his face and then poked my forehead.

"Why didn't you say something then?"

Hm? Was he expecting me to do that? Rin looked really happy and felt like his whole expression was starting to sparkle. I started to remember the first time I met him. He truly did give off a cocky ass vibe but knowing how Sousuke had explained to me what the other side of him looked like. I was able to really accept it. I held tighter to Rin and put my head on his arm while we walked. Is it really alright for us to date so suddenly? I don't really know how Rin felt and I didn't want this to just slide and not work out at all. It felt a little weird. We finally got out of the amusement park and Rin drove us to a ramen house to get some really well-cooked ramen. Rin seemed like he knew the workers there and seeing him show a different side to him, gave me weird butterflies inside. He acted like Makoto but ten times better. IS this how he would treat his girl? Wait? Does this mean we are officially dating? I started to feel my cheeks and Rin noticed my action and then he scooted me closer to him on the seat. I looked at Rin who smiled so nicely at me that I wasn't used to this Rin yet. He put a hand over mind and then tucked some of my hair back behind my ear.

"If you are worried that I might do something bad during this new relationship of ours, you better not think of it."

"Of course not. It's just that there are a lot of things I still don't know about you yet."

"Oh? Then the first thing I want to show you will be the first thing you will get to know more about me."

"Huh?"

Once we finished eating, Rin decided that it was time for us to go home. To be honest, we didn't stay in the same room because I started to feel a little awkward about the whole thing. We live together, and now we are together but won't really act like a couple who will be in the same room. My phone started to vibrate and Sousuke had messaged me.

"Hey Aya. There was one more thing I forgot to tell you about. I don't know if it's a good time to tell you but there was someone who knows who you are. For some reason he knew who I was and who Rin was.

What was he talking about? I messaged back to him saying that we can talk later about it and that I was heading to sleep. I touched my chin for a good second and then went to the bathroom. Once I headed there, I was stopped by a topless Rin who was wet all over his body. I guess he already had his bath. Rin get a little closer to me and then touches my cheek.

"Are you feeling alright, Aya?"

"Yes. Thanks for asking."

I walked passed him and went inside the bathroom but by the time I was about to go in, Rin had grabbed a hold of my wrist and kissed me suddenly. It was mostly gentle and he lifted me out of the bedroom and into his room. From there it was something more touchable. The last time we had that one night, it felt more rough and didn't have any feelings from there. The way he touched me all over was pure gentleness and his kisses were more passionate. His breathing over my skin was unsteady and the sounds of his moans were not in sync. He clenched my hand tighter as I screamed a little. Rin touched me by the cheek and whispered in my ear.

"Please….stay..with me, Aya. I promise to love you...forever.. Please know that you can believe in me."

He continued to say different words as we kissed. He was definitely passionate and I wish I could believe but I started to feel insecure about it. I wrapped my arms around him and kissed him hard. To my understandings, the days I've been with Rin for the short while, bloomed way to fast. I wouldn't know how our relationship will continued from this day. The next day I woke up to breakfast in bed by Rin and so far he hasn't tried to do something idiotic towards me so I was a bit confused about that. But I started to love this Rin. I heard the doorbell ring and I was about to answer but Rin kissed me on the lips and decided to answer it himself. I couldn't be pampered all the time so I followed Rin. Once Rin opened the door, I tilted my head in confusion.

"Mr. Terashima! What brings you here?"

Mr. Terashima? Who's that? The man at the door looked like a yakuza but he had a soft feel to him. He patted Rin on the back and he took a good glance at me. Rin looked at me as well and started to speak.

"Mr. Terashima. Do you know know who that is? You have been staring at her for awhile."

Mr. Terashima had taken out his walled from his suit pocket and raised the photograph in his face. He looked at both the photo and I and when I noticed Rin's expression looked shock, he looked at me sternly and I looked at Mr. Terashima.

"Aya, you live here?" Mr. Tersahima had asked me.

How did he know my name and what's he talking about. Rin went over to me and held my back.

"This is my partner, and lover."

Mr. Terashima was wide eyed and he covered his mouth. Rin and I looked totally confused and Mr. Terashima decided to talk.

"I'm pretty sure you wouldn't remember someone from a yakuza gang. But...Aya. I am your father."

What? Father? Rin looked at me seriously and I didn't know what to say. I wasn't sure if this was my own dad. I had stayed with Haru and his family more, and they actually took care of me well throughout my whole weekend. I didn't know about who my mom and dad was but looking at Mr. Tersahima and hearing that he was my dad, has to be a complete joke.

End of Chapter!

Some are waiting for the whole Haru's arrange marriage part and to see what is going on with that. But other than that, Aya's story is now going on a roller coaster
