Chapter 14 - Planning
"why is life so hard?" Hiro asked Haru. Haru looked up suddenly surprised.
"what?" Haru asked, completely lost. It was days sense the progress between Hiro and Kisa took place.
"I want to do something, I want to move forward but I can't. Kisa is still stuck on Saturday. We can't even hold hands without her flinching. I want to help her threw this. I want my girl back." Hiro blurted out.
Haru sat there awkward for a sec.
"she'll come around. I know her pretty well. It'll take time. If you love her, you'll wait." Haru answered. Hiro sat there more shocked. That's not what he wanted to hear, but it's what he needed to hear.
"I need to find her." Hiro said, and got up.
Kisa was still sleeping when Hiro walked into her room. She was balled up on her bed, signing to herself in a dream. Hiro stood in the corner of her room and watched her wondering what she was seeing.
He walked over to her bed and sat on the floor by her head.
"Kisa," Hiro began whispering. "I love you so much. I'll do what ever it takes to help you through this. Whatever it takes, however long it takes. I'll be here."
Kisa smiled in her sleep and readjusted her arms.
"Hiro…" she moaned. "please."
Hiro starred at her sleeping face.
"what are you seeing? What are you feeling? Let me in." Hiro pleaded. "I'll take this away, just tell me how."
Kisa opened her eyes slowly.
"Hiro." she said with a smile in her voice. "what are you doing here?" she asked looking at him with big eyes.
"I wanted to see you." Hiro said smiling back.
"it's the best morning surprise." Kisa said. She smiled and opened up her arms. Hiro leaned in her arms and wrapped his own around her. She trembled as he rested his face in her hair and breathed in.
"good morning." Hiro said, trying to hid the sadness in his reply.
"I'm afraid to tell you how I think I can get over it." she said bluntly. She pursed her lips and looked deep in his eyes. "I'm afraid to hear what you'll say."
"Kisa, you heard me?" Hiro blushed. Kisa nodded and locked his gaze. "tell me, I'll do anything. Kisa I love you. I'll kill Kiyoshi, if that's what it takes. Just please tell me, anything. Don't leave me in the dark." Hiro pleaded.
Kisa looked away embarrassed. Hiro's mind run wondering what she was thinking.
"just tell me." Hiro said encouragingly.
"ma…make… l… love to m… me" she struggled trying to look in his eyes. Hiro's jaw almost dropped. His eyes full of questions, too afraid to ask. "to take away the other time."
"Kisa…" Hiro said slowly.
"you said you wont let me fall if I look down. But I have to. I have to get as high as the ladder will take me and look down. I'm just scared I'll loose my balance and fall." Kisa tried to explain.
Hiro looked at her confused to the rim. Before Hiro could ask what she was talking about, Kisa's lips were on his.
"Kisa not like this." Hiro said pulling away. Kisa looked hurt.
"you said anything. No matter what it took. I really believe this will help. I was talking to Tohru and what she said made sense. The other day on the couch helped so much. I know if we try going farther it'll get better." Kisa looked in his eyes. "try to understand that."
Hiro nodded. He leaned in a kissed her on the lips.
"not right now. I'll do whatever you think it'll take, I promise. But not like this." Hiro said firmly.
Kisa nodded and hugged him.
"thank you." she said, not to sure what else to say.
Hiro knew what he had in mind for this occasion. The only problem was constructing it to the perfection he had in his mind.
He wanted to have it be sweet, slow and romantic. He had an idea what she might like from all the amine's she loves.
He wrote out a list: roses, sparking cider, candles, instrumental music and a pleasant dinner before hand. She starred at him as he figured out the numbers and details in his mind.
"what you thinking about?" she asked brushing her teeth.
"nothing much. Um, I got some stuff to do today. Will you be ok? Without me?" Hiro asked. Kisa got a little worried. "um yeah, I wanted to go see Tohru and Kyo today away. Go ahead I'll be ok." Kisa smiled and walked to her closet. She picked out an outfit and looked at Hiro. He nodded.
He walked up to her and kissed her cheek.
"I'll call you when I'm done." Hiro said and left.
There you guys go. I know it's a little rushed but I just want to end this story to be honest. I don't really like the way it went and I cant change it now. I know it's OOC in several places but oh well. It's all good. Hiro and Kisa deserve to have some good old fashion sex. But I couldn't just write them fucking. They needed love behind it.
Oh and the technique I use is very affective, I know it is. So when people say that would never work it's only because they haven't climbed up really high and look down in their life.
