I'm so sorry for the long wait. The adapter of my laptop broke, and it took me quite a while to find a replacement. Then there was the Holidays, got busy with lots of
things... Hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year...
I'll try to finish the next chapter by the end of this week... Leave a comment and let me know if there is anything... Enjoy!

'Til death do us part
Chapter 11
-'
"Where the hell is he?" She repeated again, indignant, as she stared up at the clock and watch the minute hand tick from seven to eight. Sighing heavily, she pulled
out her cell phone and dialed his number for the tenth time. She stomped her feet and balled up her fists.
-'
"I'm gonna kill him!" she muttered to herself.
-'
"Maybe I should take you home?" Raiha looked at her and smiled gently. He grabbed her jacket, she was about to protest but then stopped, instead she nodded.
-'
Meanwhile...
-'
Tokiya looked at his cell phone, as if looking at it would stop its ringing and leave him in peace. He knew who was calling and he didn't want to answer, because he
didn't want to hear her. He needed sometime alone to think and relax. What is happening to him? His mind questioned. He can't even think of a rational explanation
anymore. All he knew was what he was feeling left him too agitated and confused.
Listen Tokiya, it's none of your business... Why are you letting THIS woman get under your skin...He turned his cell phone off and put it in the pocket of the jacket that he was wearing. He then made a sign to the bartender to bring him another drink. It had only
been an hour but he was already on his third drink. Pouring alcohol down his system was his desperate attempt to keep a certain girl off his mind.
-'
What the hell was Raiha doing in her office!
-'
He shooked his head and furrowed his brows, as he poured more beer down his throat, like water down a sink. Obviously his plan about not thinking of anything
concerning her, was not working as intended. He took another sip of his beer before placing it on the table empty.
-'
Is Raiha courting her...? That bastard! Who was he to hit on HIS woman!
-'
"My what...?" he repeated, with a whiff of disbelief and a confused expression on his face.
-'
"If you continue drinking like that, you'll be drunk in no time!" Tokiya's thought were interrupted by a sudden voice which came from behind him.
-'
"I don´t see why that´s any of your concern, sea-monkey!" he retorted with a cold voice, almost sending shivers down the other boy's spine.
-'
"My, my, my. Aren't we cranky today! Are you having your period?" Tokiya frowned, as the owner of the voice came into view and took the empty seat in front of him. A
big grin clearly displayed on his face. His black hair was raffled everywhere, as he ran a hand through it.
-'
"I don't remember asking you to sit next to me?" Tokiya growled, not bothering to hide his irritation. The other boy smirked a satisfied grin, a trademark smile of his.
-'
"I don't remember needing an invitation! This seat was empty and we're living in a free country!" he grinned as he folded his arms, then stared at Tokiya with a raised
eyebrow. Recca then made a sign to the bartender to bring them more to drink.
-'
"What are you doing here? Don't tell me you escaped from the zoo again!" Tokiya asked with a cold smirk.
-'
"Funny! You're a born comedian..." Recca replied, sarcasm and some bewilderment slipping into his voice.
-'
"And you're a born idiot!" Tokiya retorted quickly in his usually flat tone.
-'
"Awwww, you're hurting my feelings!" Recca placed a hand over his chest and faked a pout.
-'
"Geez Hanabishi, you're 21 but you have the maturity of a 12-year-old!" Recca laughed at his comment. Tokiya just frowned and looked up with disinterest.
-'
"And you're acting like an old man! Would it really kill you to smile once in a while?" Recca asked with an arched brow.
-'
"Would it kill you to shut up?" Tokiya snapped.
-'
"Yo, chill ice-block, think about your blood pressure." The raven-haired joked. Tokiya just looked at him with a murderous menace. If looks could kill, Recca would surely
be six feet under by the force of Tokiya's glare.
-'
"So what's going on between you and Fuuko?" Recca suddenly asked, nothing but curiosity showing on his face. Tokiya raised his eyebrows, surprised by his direct
question. His face remained expressionless, but something passed fast through his eyes.
-'
"I know..." Recca whispered, Tokiya almost chocked on his beer. Had the alcohol just affected his hearing?He tried to remain calm in front of the latter, but inside he
was starting to panic. He knows!
-'
"Because I heard the two of you..." Recca continued with a smug on his face. Tokiya's jaw dropped down as he came into realization.
-'
"You heard?" Tokiya asked, as if unable to believe his own ears.
-'
"And I saw you..." Recca smiled a knowing smile. Upon hearing this, Tokiya almost fell off his chair.
-'
"You did WHAT!" He yelled out, scaring the waiter with the drinks they have ordered. Recca was just grinning like a maniac. Oh Kami, what have I done to deserve this?Tokiya took a deep breath, not wanting to commit a crime in front of so many witnesses.
-'
"You guys were in the garden and YOU were all over Fuuko!" Recca continued talking, not noticing Tokiya's lack of response and horrific expression on his face.
Paranoid thoughts running through his head. In the garden? There too? He saw us!
-'
"And we all thought that you weren't capable of such actions..." Tokiya was starting to sweat, he felt himself heating up as Recca kept on talking.
-'
"Actions?"
-'
"Oh, you know what I mean!" Recca winked, as he sipped on his beer. Tokiya was now red as a volcano ready to explode.
-'
"So how was it?" Tokiya's eyes grew wider. He almost spit out his beer upon hearing Recca's question, as he looked back at the raven-haired with utter bewilderment
in his eyes.
-'
"NANI? That's none of your damn business you perverted MORON!" Tokiya replied harshly.
-'
"O, come on! Just a little detail... Was it quick or slow, hard or soft, wet or dry?" There was a teasing smile on Recca's face, he was not going to stop now. Tokiya
suddenly hit him hard on the side of his head, trying to knock some sense into him.
-'
"That's a private matter, I'd prefer not to discuss it with an idiot..." Recca laughed, but the other guy just glared at him icily.
-'
"Relax Iceman, I didn't know that talking about a kiss can..." Recca spoke, but his words were cut off.
-'
"Wait, you're talking about what?"
-'
"About the kiss... I saw you kiss Fuuko in the garden! And I kinda heard your confession..." Recca now explained. What Confession? Tokiya couldn't believe his own
ears. He had thought that Recca was talking about the intimate incident between him and Fuuko, but he was just talking about a kiss, a kiss that he can't even
remember himself. Tokiya smirked at his own thoughts, how could he had assumed that Recca was talking about THAT?
-'
"So all this time, you were talking about a kiss that Fuuko and I shared?" Tokiya asked confused.
-'
"Yeah, what did you think I was talking about?" Recca asked, grinning. Tokiya shooked his head, because for a moment he had actually thought that Recca would
know anything about THAT private session...
-'
"Nothing, I just think the alcohol is already affecting me!" Tokiya muttered.
-'
"Yeah right, you were thinking of something else, other than the kiss, so that means that..." Recca stopped at mid-sentence with a gasp, as if he realized something.
He paused a moment and Tokiya glared at him suspiciously.
-'
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Tokiya demanded to know, but Recca had a goofy grin on his face that spread from ear to ear. There was something about that
look on his face that clearly bothered Tokiya.
-'
"So, I wasn't just imagining things when I saw you come out of her room that morning. And I thought I was just drunk, but obviously not!" Tokiya's eyes widened for a
second and he swallowed uncomfortably, at any moment now he was going to have a heart attack, a definite excuse to escape Recca's interrogation.
-'
"I have no idea what you are talking about!" Tokiya said, trying to act innocent, but he was avoiding eye contact.
-'
"You're denying it?" Recca asked, folding his arms across his chest.
-'
"Denying what?" Tokiya cocked an eyebrow.
-'
"That you were with Fuuko..." Recca stated with a rather frustrated voice.
-'
"You said you were drunk, so maybe you were just imagining things!" Tokiya replied, sounding very convincing.
-'
"But I saw you!" Recca replied, now sounding unsure.
-'
"You may have thought you saw me, but you didn't!" Tokiya assured Recca, but the latter just looked confused.
-'
"But I'm almost sure!"
-'
"Did you know that alcohol can damage your brain and mess up with your mind!" Tokiya said with a mocking smirk.
-'
"Nani? Hey, now you're just changing the subject away from the original point!" Recca said with a silly smile on his face.
-'
"And what subject is that" Recca looked at Tokiya as if he had three heads.
-'
"Gosh, you're making my head spin!" He complained.
-'
"See, it has already damaged your brain!" Tokiya smirked.
-'
Later that night...
-'
Hearing a knock at her front door, Fuuko rolled out of bed with a groan. She glanced at the clock on the night table as it blinked the time at her. It was 2:10 am. She
initially thought she was dreaming, so she laid back down. Then she heard the knock again, this time harder.
-'
"FUUKO!" a familiar voice called from the outside. She angrily sat up in bed. Mi-chan?
-'
"What the hell is he doing here?" Fuuko hissed through her teeth. He better have a damn good reason for disturbing her peaceful sleep. She quickly jumped to her
feet and went to the front door.
-'
"What the HELL are you doing here?" she asked rather rudely, almost yelling. Her eyes were narrowed and her hands were on her hips. She wore an expression of
what could only be termed: Furious.
Tokiya smirked.
-'
"You have a lot of guts showing up here! After ditching me! Go away!" she answered, with annoyance clearly showing on her face. She tried closing the door, but his
hand abruptly stopped it, keeping it open.
-'
"Mi-chan, LEAVE or I'll make you leave the face of the earth!" she threatened venomously at him.
-'
"Is that the way to talk to the father of your child?" There was something in his voice that stirred her curiosity. Fuuko grabbed his shirt and pulled him closer to smell
his breath and then shrugged away, obviously not liking the smell.
-'
"Mi-chan! Are you drunk?" she asked incredulously.
-'
"I am . . . not drunk!" he insisted unconvincingly, she just scoffed and rolled her eyes.
-'
"Aren't you gonna invite me in?" he asked cockily, raising an eyebrow. She stared in disbelief at the man standing in front of her.
-'
"NO! Go home Mi-chan!" she said coldly, as she pushed him away, since he kept on leaning closer.
-'
"Are you sure?" he asked, lowering his head so his eyes were level with hers. Fuuko felt herself blush as she stared into those cold grey eyes. Why, oh why, did he have to be so devilishly handsome?
-'
"Yes, I'm pretty sure!" she replied with a wicked smile.
-'
"What? You want me to drive home at this state?" he slurred, a pained expression clouding over his face. Fuuko couldn't help but laugh at his silliness.
-'
"Well, you didn't have a problem driving here didn't you? So, you shouldn't have a problem driving home too..." she said with a wink.
-'
"FINE! Keep in mind that if I die, it will be on your conscience!" he replied, as he turned to leave. But the he stumbled on something and almost tripped on his own
feet. She sighed defeated, a faint smile appeared on the corner of his lips, because he knew that the battle was won.
-'
"Fine... You can stay, I'll make you some coffee!" Fuuko said, as she walked inside, followed by Tokiya, who was trying hard to keep his balance.
-'
"Do you need some help?" she asked, looking at him with an amused smirk, he only shook his head. Then he gently closed the door and started walking towards her,
but he stopped along the way when he noticed that she was only wearing a T-shirt, that barely covered the middle of her tighs and his breath caught when he
realized that she was probably only wearing skin under that thin textile. He was now behind her, her back was facing him and he was staring at a few loose strands
of her hair that fell gracefully along the back of her neck. How he ached to just kiss the nape of her smooth neck, knowing it was a sensitive place on most women.
-'
"Kami, you're so beautiful!" he whispered in her ear, before sucking on her earlobe. This brought a gasp from Fuuko and she quickly turned around.
-'
"What are you doing Mi-chan?" she exclaimed in a startled whisper.
-'
"What I should have done a long time ago..." He replied, as he tangled his fingers in the loose strands of her purple hair. She looked at him nervously, and opened her
mouth to speak again, but whatever she had planned on saying was lost when Tokiya captured her lips with his. Puzzled by his actions, she pulled away and stared
at him with disbelief. After a moment, he leaned closer and kissed her again, while his hands ran down her back. She wasn't responding to his kiss, but she wasn't
pushing him away either. So he cupped her face and tilted her head a little to gain better access to her mouth. He groaned in pleasure as she started kissing him
back.
-'
"Marry me..." he whispered against her lips.
-'
"What?" she whispered back.
-'
