The Vampire and The Maid
Chapter Eleven
Fiancée?
I do not own Maid-sama
"It's a bull dozer" Usui noted.
Misaki took her Mother's hand "we have to get out of here" she looked over to Usui and told him to go get Suzuna.
Usui ran to the staircase, as the entire second storey of the house came crashing down. Usui straightened and dusted his clothes. He heard the sound of a small yelp. He dashed over to where he has heard the noise coming from.
Suzuna struggled underneath pieces of wood and furniture "What's going on?" she cried. As Usui appeared in front of her a plank of wood fell and hit her head, making her unconscious.
Usui lifted and threw everything that was burying Suzuna. He scooped Suzuna up in his arms and rushed out of the crumbling house. He laid Suzuna on the pavement beside Misaki's Mother who was sitting worried about the house and where they're going to live now since there's no house.
Misaki hugged her Mother to try and calm her down "it's alright, I can ask someone."
Misaki's mother shook her head "should we? It may be a bother for them".
"You can stay at my place, it wouldn't be a hassle" Usui offered.
"Really?" Misaki's mother questioned.
Usui smiled "yes".
Misaki looked away "okay, Usui can you take my Mother and Suzuna with you?"
"What are you going to do?" Usui asked.
"I just want to look around; I'll be right behind you guys".
Usui frowned "okay."
Misaki went around the house and saw a bull dozer pushing the crumbled house around into a pile. "What are you doing?" she shrieked at the man driving the bull dozer.
The bull dozer stopped and the driver jumped out and walked to Misaki "I'm sorry ma'am, I was given orders from my boss to knock down the house immediately" he informed.
"Who's your boss?"
"Igarashi Tora."
Usui laid Suzuna on a bed and Misaki's Mother sat on a bed "where's Misaki?" Misaki's Mother asked.
"She said she'll be here soon" Usui answered.
The front the door opened "Mum, are you alright?" Misaki rushed to her Mother's side and put a hand on her back- leaving the front door open.
Misaki's Mother nodded "yes I'm fine darling, just let me sleep for a while and I shall be all better" she smiled.
Misaki stood up "of course" she said as she laid her mother down and tucked her into bed.
Usui took Misaki by her elbow and whispered into her ear "why did you take so long?"
Misaki jerked away "its fine, I just wanted to know what was happening."
"What if that man's orders were not only to destroy the house?"
Misaki winced "wait, you knew?"
"Of course, I didn't think the bull dozer was being driven by itself" his voice starting to get louder. "You should be more careful. I stayed because of you; don't make me regret it- losing everything for someone who was going to die within months." Usui stopped and thought about what he had just said. "Misaki, that's not what I meant…"
Misaki didn't listen. She just turned around and hurried out the door shutting it behind her.
Usui leaned against the wall and fell to the ground "what have I done?" he murmured to himself. He hit the back of his head against the wall "I'm such an idiot."
Misaki began to slow down as she walked along the footpath in front of a park. She took out her phone when she decided to walked over to the swings. She looked at the time and would have shrieked if she wasn't so 'depressed'. She didn't really know exactly how she was feeling.
She put her phone back into her pocket and then sat down on the swing-seat. As she started to swing herself, back and forth- everything that Usui said to her played over and over again. When she came to a stop the rain started to fall. She wanted to cry so much, but it seemed like the rain was doing all the crying for her.
With her head looking down at the ground she noticed two brown shoes appear. She looked up and Igarashi was standing in front of her with a red umbrella. She stood up about to run but he grabbed her arm and held the umbrella over her head.
"Tora, I don't need it. What is the point of an umbrella if I am already soaking wet" Misaki said as she tried to pull away from his grip.
"Fine then" he said. "How about your family? How are they doing without their home?"
"Why do you care? You wanted to kill me right. Why don't you just go ahead and kill me" Misaki didn't know what she was saying. Her lips just seemed to be moving by themselves.
He laughed "I don't intend to kill you right now- not without Usui watching."
"So are you going to let me go?"
"Why would I do something so stupid" he replied, clicking his fingers. Two men dressed in black suddenly arrive and carry her into a black jeep. "I want Usui to come and witness your death instead of us bringing it to him".
When they closed the back of the jeep Misaki opened it and ran out "no…!"
Igarashi chuckled in delight "so she won't give up that easily it seems" he clicked his fingers "go after her."
Misaki kept running. She was about to run to her old home but then she remember that just two hours ago their house had been demolished. When she was going to continue running to Usui's apartment she realised she was being followed so she tried to put them on a wild goose chase.
When Misaki ran through the amusement park she was unexpectedly pulled into the hall of mirrors. She looked around "whose there?" Misaki questioned looking around the room.
A girl that looked a bit younger that Misaki with long curly red hair and bright green eyes came out form hiding giggling. "Are you Misaki?" she spoke in English.
Misaki was amazed at how beautiful she looked "yes, who are you?" Misaki's English was not very good but she did know something.
The girl cheered "oh, I am Bridget Walsh" then she paused "wait do you understand English very well?" she enquired.
Misaki frowned.
"You don't understand English very well, do you" she spoke in Japanese. "ah that should have been easy to tell since we are in Japan."
"You can speak Japanese" Misaki wondered.
Bridget nodded "yes, also Irish, French, English, Italian and Chinese" she grinned. "See I travel with my father a lot and I learn the languages while I stay there."
"Oh…" then Misaki thought back to the begging of their conversation "wait, how do you know who I am?"
"I saw Tora's goons chasing after you and guessed that, that might be you" she answered smiling. "I heard you're the one who made Usui stay here and lose everything."
Misaki sighed and lowered her head "it's the first time I've heard that today."
"I didn't mean to make it sound like a bad thing, I sorry" she apologised. "It's just that he was my fiancée but since his heart was taken away by someone else I had to lose him."
Misaki looked up at Bridget "fiancée? You were to get married to Usui?"
Bridget nodded "yes, it was so that our two clans could unite."
"Two Clans?"
"Yeah, my father owns the Irish territory. He came here to have a meeting with Usui about cancelling the engagement."
