A/N: I never thought I'd get this far with this story. Lately, I've been thinking if it would be better if I just end it here since I haven't been getting much feedback. But thanks to the last review I received saying that this was a 'splendid' story, I was revived. ,
By the time they got back to the apartment, Yuya had already lost consciousness. Kyo laid her on her bed. He then sat on a chair nearby and just stared at her.
'Don't even think of it.'
'I don't intend to, she means nothing to me.'
'I hope what you're saying is the truth.'
The voice in his head was really getting annoying.
It has definitely been a long time since he had killed. Earlier that evening, his bloodlust was so overpowering that for a moment he forgot his mission and went on a killing rampage. The blood, the screams, the fear. He relished in it all. Still, he shouldn't forget what he really came back for. Revenge.
He decided to take a shower to wash away the scent of blood from his body. Finding the bathroom, he took off his clothes and tossed them in the laundry basket. He then turned on the knob of the shower. As the hot water pelted his body, he gave out a contented sigh.
Yuya woke up a short while after Kyo had left her room. She was having a terrible headache so she headed to the bathroom to get some pills. The bathroom door was wide open. She did not realize that the shower was on. As she was opening the mirror cabinet, the shower curtain was drawn aside. She turned her head to the side and what she saw made her eyes go wide.
Kyo was standing stark naked in front of her, but it seemed like he wasn't bothered by it at all. Yuya felt herself blush and she quickly went out the bathroom, slamming the door behind her.
She wasn't able to see the amused smirk that Kyo had on his face.
When Yuya woke up the next morning, she couldn't find Kyo anywhere. It was all the more better since she was still embarrassed about the bathroom incident. More so, she couldn't forget how beautiful his body was. She could still remember how sexy he looked with water dripping down his muscles. She heated up just thinking about it.
She went to take a cold shower. It was pretty effective in dowsing out the heat she was feeling in her groin earlier. When she was finished, she wrapped herself up with a bathrobe.
It was an opportune moment that as she was coming out of the bathroom, Kyo had just entered through the door.
"Where have you gone?" she asked, unable to look him in the eye.
"Just outside," he answered curtly. She couldn't help but notice that his voice was deeper than before.
She was about to say something else when he suddenly pushed her against the wall. She was startled, looking at him face to face. He was so close that she could feel his breath upon her lips. The red pools of his eyes captivated her. He dipped his head and kissed her fiercely.
She tried to fight back, pushing him away but he wouldn't even budge. Soon, she was lost in their kiss. Her hands slackened on his chest and slowly crept to his neck.
She only withdrew when his hand found its way inside her gaping bathrobe.
He smirked at her, "Didn't you like it? It certainly didn't feel that way to me."
She couldn't believe it. He never talked to her that way before. The real Kyo would never kiss her against her will and he certainly wouldn't taunt her about it right after.
"Who are you, really?" It was the question she'd been dying to ask since last night.
"Let's just say that I'm a different person now." He whispered in her ear.
It was all he said, and then he left.
Yuya spent the rest of the day pondering about what he had said.
"What could he possibly mean?" She wondered as she stared out the classroom window. She had only known him a little over two months, but so much has happened ever since. She loved him with all her heart but with the way things were going on right now, it looked as if their relationship didn't stand a chance. At least she knew that he had once loved her, but was that really enough?
"Ms. Yuya Shina!"
Yuya was startled out of her wits so much that she had knocked her book off her desk.
Her teacher was looking at her sternly. He was not pleased at all.
"Ms. Shina, I was asking you a question?"
"Can you please repeat the question, sir?" she asked sheepishly.
"Why don't you just stay later this afternoon and sweep the school yard?
It was a harsh punishment, but there was nothing she could do. It was the result of her negligence. She was really getting frustrated. Kyo had manage to invade her thoughts even at school!
Later that afternoon, Yuya was the only one left at the schoolyard. The wind kept on scattering the fallen leaves, making her task much more difficult.
She was staring at the horizon thinking of ways to get back at her teacher when she noticed that there was someone standing in the distance. It was a woman who looked a few years older than she was. The wind was caressing her long straight black hair. Her bangs hid her eyes. When she raised her head, she was staring straight back at Yuya. Yuya noticed that the woman's cerulean eyes were the saddest she had ever seen.
Yuya was entranced. She slowly took a step toward the mysterious woman who kept on staring at her. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind sent the leaves flying, obscuring Yuya's view for a moment. When she looked again, the woman was gone.
"Who did this?" Kyo spat angrily as he held his sword against the guard's neck.
"I-I have no idea!" the man answered cowardly.
"Useless," Kyo hissed. He killed the man with one swift thrust of his sword.
He questioned the others, but it was pointless. No one knew who plotted the kidnapping of Yuya. They were just following the orders of some unknown man.
'Idiots.' Kyo thought as he remembered the night he had saved Yuya. He didn't want to admit it, but she was beautiful. So much more than he had expected. The other Kyo didn't know it, but he had been observing her since the time after the accident. She had piqued his interest form the start. It's a good thing he'd been tuning out his thoughts from his alter-ego.
Could he, the stonehearted Demon Eyes Kyo be attracted to a woman again after so long a time? He had vowed to stay off women ever since what happened with Sakuya. Sakuya. Just remembering her name made his blood boil. She was the first woman he had ever trusted and still she had the gall to betray him.
"She will pay." He swore to himself.
He then heard the apartment door unlock. A thought suddenly occurred to him.
"This is going to be fun."
Yuya didn't want to come back to the apartment, but she had nowhere else to go. She still couldn't forget what Kyo had said. What could he possibly mean? He was so unpredictable.
She cautiously entered the apartment. Kyo was nowhere to be found, or so she thought. She quickly retired to her room, hoping he wouldn't come back soon.
She started to undress. She was unbuttoning her blouse when the door to her room was quietly opened and someone slipped in.
"Eek!" Yuya shrieked as she tried to cover herself.
Kyo was standing in front of her.
What are you doing here? This is my room!" she demanded.
"I know, but this is my apartment." He answered, slowly advancing towards her.
Yuya took a step backward. "That's not funny at all."
He took another step towards her, "Who said I was trying to be funny?"
He was looking at her, desire evident in his eyes. Her arms were crossed around her midriff. She had peeled of her socks and had already taken off her skirt, exposing every inch of her long smooth legs. Her cheeks were flushed and her lips were moist and red.
He saw a glimpse of her flat belly, causing heat to spread all over his body.
There was no doubt about it, she was beautiful and he wanted her.
I'm still thinking if Yuya would be better off with Demon Eyes Kyo or the Kyo who saved her. What do you guys think?
