Well. Here we have it. It's been lovely having all your reviews, so please let me know if you like my ending.
Enjoy!
Act 10 II
"That would be me."
All eyes stuck on the young man, who smiled.
Mai's eyes widened, but soon she found herself holding back tears.
The young man came closer, and took her hand. He bent over it, his pale, almost white blonde hair falling forward as his lips barely brushed against it.
"Your ladyship," he murmured, before looking up again, smirking slightly. Brown green eyes met grey.
"Mr- Duke Shibuya," Mai couldn't even force a smile. She was trying too hard to fix her heart. The sellotape had broken and she couldn't find the duct tape.
Why was she so disappointed? Who had she been expecting? Naru?
Yes, she realised. Somehow, her heart had still been hoping.
Not anymore.
The young man tilted his head slightly as he assessed her, and he suddenly grinned, flashing a set of white teeth.
"Wow," he said in the same low voice, but loud enough for everyone to hear. "I got lucky." The crowd laughed and smiled, before there was a round of applause.
-
Naru raised an eyebrow. He hadn't intended to step out and announce himself, but he hadn't been expecting someone else to step out for him.
An impostor.
Well, that was interesting.
Maybe he had made a mistake.
...
Nah. Not possible. All of Naru's confidence had returned to him once he had seen the will. Naru just didn't make mistakes. (This is from the discovery of his betrothal onwards. Naru was ignoring the few...ok many previous errors of judgement and character, which had led him to this mess).
Well, at least having two Kazuya Shibuya's would make his stay in Messaline much more eventful.
It would be like a competition.
But this time, Naru was not going to lose her.
Bring. It. On...
HAHAA! DID I TRICK YOU??
OF COURSE IT'S NOT OVER! I just couldn't end it, so if you were hoping it's over, tough.
Review my pretties!
