Look who's back ^_^

Kaori POV

I did what he asked me to do. Something about slurping blood and getting away with it ,forgetting the victim and living your life happily while he is suffering is just ….. just selfish. When I felt full I let his hand go and stood from my chair , headed toward him , he turned his head to look at me with a caring smile that I could tell he was faking it , he for sure is tired from this whole situation and wishes to end it as soon as possible . I fell to my knees , pressed my forehead on the floor and cried apologizing

" Sensei , I am so sorry , so sorry …"

" Kaori … It is my duty to protect you , what are you apologizing for ? "

" I know… I know it hurts you ! "

He sighed and kneel to pat my head , he said :

" Do not worry , There is always a solution "

There is only one solution in my mind … and I am willing to talk about it with Natsuno .

I left the room with shame and sorrow , never bedding him Farwell or smile . I cannot even look at him in the eyes . I called Ms. Kanami and lied my back to the wall waiting for her .

Natsuno POV

Riding the car with him in a complete silence was awkward.. Akira went with us ,but he for my surprise was quite too. We drove half the distance and still no signs for shops or people .

" Akira… Is it usually that quite at this hour "

" Yes , I do not know how could she enjoy walking with her dog everyday "

" Kaori ? "

" yes , who else . You just want to say her name "

"eh?"

What did he just say ? I felt the heat escalating to my cheeks and my heart started thumbing rather fast . I eyed my father who smirked and said

" you've changed a lot since you came here , son "

As if I want to reply to this non sense . He ruined my entire life and I won't be taking any words from him . I am still holding to the idea of leaving this place , the problem is .. Kaori and Akira . Now that I confirmed my feelings toward Kaori , and she gets used to have me around her it is impossible to disappear suddenly . I know it will be hard on them and I know she just got out of a tragic event months ago . So I will wait longer .

The car has stopped ,and my father announced our arrival .

" So … where can I find my object ? " I asked Akira and he led me to a small shop with an elder man who barely moves . I bowed to him and uttered

" Excuse me , I want to .. Is there any … I ah " Dammit Why I stumbled these words .

" Welcome son , let me guess. You need a kimono for your upcoming date ? "

" H..Hai " How did he know ?

" Tanabata festival is around ha … Young lovers "

He put in front of me a bunch of colored Kimonos and I just pointed at the purple one as my eyes lied on it . " This one please ! " I can already see Kaori smiling broadly at it .

" Oh that fast ? "

'shut up and give it to me ' " Yes please "

I held it dearly to my chest and left as soon as my father pied for it , Akira was walking and examining the shops , talking openly with the people as if he knows them before .

" Natsuno ..son , C-come here " My father called me from a distance

What does he want ? I walked to him and I saw a bunch of roses and colorful flowers with an uplifting smell , The scene was so relaxing and beautiful .

" Kaori chan is … so obsessed with flowers , I always see her in the morning watering them and examining every single one . I.. I thought it would make her night if you give her one as a symbol of your love"

" hm , thanks " That is so nice of someone just lost his mind . I asked for a red rose and take it with me.

Finally we got back to home, I went to my room tired , and exhausted . I thought I needed to slurp some blood to feel fresh again , that when I saw Kaori laying on the floor and cuddling her blanket staring at the roof , she turned her face to me and said .

" Yuuki san … Good evening " She smiled and that alone boosted my energy .

" Good evening , Did you just arrive ? " I threw my body on the bed and closed my eyes allowing the fan to cool me down .

" No, I have been here for an hour now , Did you find the purple Kimono ? "

" You will find out tomorrow " I said .

" Yuuki san ! " she hummed and hugged her blanket tighter . Her mood this evening was not the best , so I wanted to cheer her up .

" Kaori… About tomorrow " I sighed feeling already nervous .

" Hai .."

" How about we go there as a couple .. I mean- , you and I only for a d-date"

" A .. date . " She said that slowly and carefully squeezing her eyes and staring at me , I raised an eyebrow with a little blush on my cheeks .

" A date ! " She said it again loudly and placed her palms on her cheeks .

" why are you so surprise about it ? I j-" She got off her bed , ran and bowed to me while I was just laying their like an idiot . " K-Kaori !"

I tried to fix my position but paralyzed upon hearing these unexpected words .

"Yu.. Natsuno kun , I… I … I love you ! " she was shaking , and did not lift her head to me yet.

" It would mean the world to me if I go out with you ! " , so sweet , Innocent and pure love she has .I don't know what is 'date' exactly defined in her dictionary , but she seemed to adore and treasure it . Or maybe she reacts that way to every thing .

" Geez Kaori , You could've saved it for later .. " I sat down and pulled her arm so she could land gently on my chest . I hugged her , I gathered her arms and body , trapped them against me . I surrounded her shoulders and locked them with my arms as I pressed the sweet creature closer to me .

" I love you too " . She remained silent for few minutes , Just the sound of our regular breath and the feeling of her warm body on me .Another minutes passed like this with no absolute responds or shifting moves , and that for sure rang an alerting bell .

" K-Kaori ? " I felt her body being heavier as I pushed her a little to see her face .

" Kaori ….. How can you fall asleep that easy ? " I smiled , don't really know If I am satisfied with this or pitting her weakness .

I lifted Kaori's body in a bridal style and walked to her bed . I lied it down as I pulled the cover and rest it on her .My eyes could not look away at this peaceful view , I did not dare to walk way either so I just sneaked underneath the blanket, brought myself near the girl for a tender embrace . " I wonder what is bothering you this much , Kaori …." .

Okay , so for the next chapter , It will be about the " Date" and Kaori's suggestion . I decided to make her confessing earlier because she needs to be serious for the upcoming event . hm, What she is going to suggest you say ? ….. Idk XD .
