Half-Crazy

Chapter 14: Shall we continue?

After reuniting with Rin that day, lately all I've been doing was focusing what I had to do here. I was enjoying my stay in Australia so far. But of course, in my mind, I was thinking about the outcome of actually being with Rin. It's almost Christmas and I ended up heading to a mall just to look for a small gift for Rin. What can I give to a guy for Christmas? I started to look around for different things he would of liked, for example clothes or accessories. I even ended going to a swim wear store just to purchase new swim wear for him since he probably needed new ones. I went back to some accessory stores to see if I can just give him a small pendant of something.

"Hmm….maybe it's not normal to give a guy a jewelry, huh?"

I was thinking of scenarios of how he would react to a gift like that but then I ended up buying one anyway. I bought a necklace with a pendant that was the same color as his eyes. I wasn't sure if he was going to ever wear it, but it's something he can keep forever, right? No, don't think I was trying to make it like some collar where I own him. Just the look of him, needed an accessory to his style. I finally went out of the shop and decided to look around for other items I wanted to look at. Once I got back to my hotel, I started to wrap the gift and fixed it up. Then I started to look at it for a couple minutes.

"Wait a minute, why am I even buying this for him?"

I facepalm myself and lay myself on the bed. I gave out a big sigh and just realized how much Rin was effecting my brain at the moment. I never thought my heart would feel this way for a guy that I didn't expect to be with. I kept remembering the time we first met and how much of a "I'm such a cool guy or that I'm better than the other guys because I'm hardcore type" of personality he had. But deep inside of his heart, he was a more emotional guy that I never noticed. He was loveable, he was a tease and yet he showed a lot of affection even if he was a bit overprotective in some ways. He knew how to make a woman happy with whatever he got in mind. He was able to show me that. I tossed and turned on the bed and tried to close my eyes and then my face went near the Christmas gift and just poked at it.

"When the time comes, I hope that everything will be okay."

I stayed quiet for a few minutes and then my phone rang. I raised an eyebrow and then looked at my phone. I was pretty sure no one could really contact me from over here. I picked up my phone and didn't bother to look at who's name was on the screen and just answered.

"Hello? Aya?"

I finally stopped being blank and just was surprised at who called.

"Makoto?"

"Hi Aya, are you doing okay out there?"

Why was Makoto calling me out of nowhere? I continued to speak to him.

"I'm alright. I managed to find Rin."

"Is that right? That's really good news."

I stayed quiet for a bit, thinking how stupidly awkward it is to just talking to Makoto like this. I have to remember he has someone in his life now and that everything is different from way long ago.

"So...um...how's it going over there in Tokyo? Everyone still trying to see if I'm actually surviving out here?" I started to joke. I heard Makoto giving a little whine and just giggled a little bit.

"Of course, were all here making sure you were completely okay. Especially Haru. He has been wondering about you most of the time."

"Well….it's because.."

I suddenly stopped at my words and remembered how Haru confessed to me his own feelings that day before I broke up with Rin. I shook the thought off and just laughed it off.

"He is my loving-not-real brother."

"Just to add in, Aya. I'm pretty worried about you, too."

I gave out a sigh and then sat up from the bed and started to speak to Makoto. I was giving him closure that I was completely find here and that all I need to do right now is clear my head and get Rin back to everyone. Makoto even mentioned to me how Haru sort of didn't want me to go and just move on but then Makoto made a point that I still loved Rin and I couldn't say no to my true feelings I had. I wanted to tell Makoto about how Haru really felt but there really wasn't any point to do so.

"It's been pretty hard, hasn't it?"

"Hm? What do you mean, Makoto."

Makoto was quiet on the other end of the line and then he sighed. I can hear that he was laying down, from all the small movements he was making. It was sort of a static sound, near the phone.

"If I had waited to see if you would ever be together with me, you wouldn't be in this type of situation."

"Oh stop, Makoto. We already went past that, there isn't another time anymore."

"I know that. But the thought of it kind of made me think."

I stayed quiet after he had told me that and then kneel my head on the pillow. I was hoping that Makoto wouldn't say something like this, and for me to literally just sigh and nothing to say about it. I don't have those feelings for Makoto anymore, what's done was done. Makoto started to laugh a bit and then he spoke once again.

"I should let you go. You need to get some sleep. When do you come back?"

"After Christmas, so I should be home before new years."

Makoto says his okay and tells me to have a safe flight when I get back home. It was a bit awkward to talk to him like that but at least it wasn't just in silence. I thanked Makoto in my head for being that guy who would be the most worried about me. Surprisingly I thought Ikuya would call at this hour but that guy definitely knows when I need my own space. That's probably why he didn't even budge to call. I lay my face on the pillow and just stay there, having my body sink into the softness of the bed. I was finally going to sleep this time and finally blanked out.

The next day~

It was Christmas and I was running towards the meet up spot where Rin told me to meet him. I was running late, too. I held the gift in my bag and just forgot about dressing up nicely because I was running late. I see Rin standing nearby, looking at his phone and I finally caught up to him and started to catch my breath. Rin raised an eyebrow and then raised my head.

"Someone woke up late and all of sudden goes late on me."

He sort of sounded a bit irritated but I ignored it.

"Be quiet! I just slept late that's all."

"Yeah right. I bet you tried to look so nice for me that you took your time but ended up not dressing up well."

I hit him in the arm.

"Shut up, Rin!" I said. I was about to hit him again and all of sudden he gently grabbed my by the hand and then twirled me around and held it like I was his girlfriend. The memories between us came back to me and I just looked at him. Rin started to smirk.

"What? Did this startle you?"

"uh..no..it's just that.."

Rin started to laugh and then pats my head.

"Well, it should be okay to hold your hand. I don't want to lose your clumsy ass self here in Australia and not find you. The boys back home would be completely mad at me if something happened to you."

I didn't say anything after that and let him lead the way. I wasn't expecting him to do something like that, out of the blue. His grip on my hand wasn't too tight at least. We walked through the crowd, hand in hand, and I realized the people around us were looking at us. Did we look like a couple again? Especially to others? All of a sudden, making sure I wasn't thinking too much about it, I see us head into a clothing store and Rin suddenly let go of my hand, to check some clothes out. I raised an eyebrow and watched as he started picking stuff out and then walked back over to me as fast as he can.

"Since it's pretty much Christmas eve, we gotta shop quick before it closes. Here. Try these on."

Rin passed me a flow-able dress that was white, and a red cardigan to put over it. There was even red heels to go with it as well and some accessory. I looked at him still but then he turned me around and started pushing me to the dressing room.

"Come on~~ Get in there."

He used his foot this time to push me in and closing the door. All I did was feel blank, but I immediately put the items on and then once it was on, I looked at myself in the mirror. I straighten out my hair. When I looked at he white dress, it had pretty diamonds at the top. A silver ribbon was wrapped around my waist and the flow of the skirt at the bottom, had a bit of sparkles on it. I put on the red heels, and then the cardigan right after.

knock knock

"Hey, are you finished in there?"

"I'm coming, I'm coming."

I gathered my stuff and put it into my bag. I was glad I brought a bag that was huge enough for my own belongings. I started to sigh and once I opened the door, my face bumped into Rin's chest and I felt my nose.

"Geez, Rin. You don't have to be right in front of the-"

Before I can finish my sentence, Rin grabbed me from my waist and closed the door behind him. He then pinned me to the wall and then just looked straight into my eyes. I started to lightly hit him this time.

"What the hell do you think you're doing?! You freakin scared the shit out of me?!"

"shhhhhhhh"

He covered my mouth and I felt like this situation happened before, and then I freakin remembered when we were both in the stall the first time together, when we didn't even get to know each other yet and we were both practically naked. My face didn't blush this time because I realized how much I was already used to him. I stopped hitting him and then kept quiet. We heard some footsteps come by and we hear girls chatter away.

"Omg! I swear I saw Rin Matsuoka in the store!"

"You did, too! He is literally the most hottest swimmer I've ever seen, compared to some guys we see here in Australia."

"I hope he doesn't have a girlfriend."

I raised my eyebrow and looked straight at Rin who looked at me and gave me a weird face.

"Don't you even dare say a word, Aya."

I gave an evil grin and then my face come closer to him.

"Oh~~ This will be the best thing to try."

"Wha—What?!"

Rin suddenly yelled out loud, and then he immediately covered his mouth. I was still being lifted by him and then we heard the girls sort of walked back to see who it was who yelled. I can see there shoes from below the dressing room door. I started to decided to play around and then put my hands down his waist. Rin started to tense up so bad that I really wanted to laugh out so loud. His grip on me was literally loose and my feet was able to touch the floor. I moved both my hands down a bit more to where his boxers were and I can tell Rin's face was completely red.

"A—Aya...St—op-"

His voice was shaky. I was about to say something out loud and he was trying to cover my mouth so I wouldn't say a word. I started cracking up with laughter in the inside. Rin was giving me this evil stare and I waved my hands in front of him that I won't do anything anymore. His grip on my thighs got tighter and his body moved in closer. I felt my back touch the wall more hard and he was staring into my eyes.

"Are you trying to compete with me over all the things you just did."

I started to laugh a bit.

"I didn't even try, idiot."

Rin's eyes looked at me from my chest and to my face. I didn't like the tension that I was feeling from it. Rin moved his head to the side and I can feel his breath on my neck. He raised the skirt of my dress up, and felt on my underwear. Now, I totally felt a rush of blush grow on my face. I tried to push him away but instead, he bit me on the neck and I started to squint my eyes. His sharp teeth bit me on the neck so hard that I can feel a bruise coming.

"R—in! Oww! That hurts."

Rin licked the bite mark and then grabbed onto my chest. His forehead touched mine and then the expression on his face looked a bit terrifying. I wanted to stop him from what ever he was going to do but then he suddenly let go and felt his face. The whole scenario we just went through just stopped right there. Now, everything felt way too awkward.

"Sorry. Let me just turn around real quick. This is embarrassing."

I went wide eyed at this reaction and thought to myself. He was right about it being embarrassing and plus were not even a real couple. I felt the bite mark on my neck and just left my hand there. Fuck. That was definitely going to leave a bruise once I get home and everyone is going to make a weird talk about it. I raised my foot and pushed Rin on the butt after I opened the dressing room door and kicked him out. I closed the door behind him and the girls overheard him bump into something, they started to be surprised. I rubbed the back of my head and just ignored what was going as those fan girls can just take Rin away from me. Once I opened the door, I see them putting their arms around him and asking him different questions and I just completely walked away from Rin.

"AYA! Wait up!"

I didn't even listen to him and just kept walking. Once I was out of the store, Rin managed to get a hold of me and block my path. I crossed my arms and then he literally grabs a hold of my shoulders.

"Did you really have to do that?"

"Of course, I'm a single woman who can do whatever she likes."

Rin just clicked his tongue and then grabbed me by the wrist and pulled me along to where ever he was planning to take me. What type of Christmas hang out is this? During the time we went to eat at a restaurant, we sort of argued. By the time we went to some ice cream shop, he would instantly yelled at me in front of people. What the fuck was this? I felt my bag and thought about if I should even give him the gift. Suddenly we got back to our destination where we met up and sat at a bench, looking out to the bridge. It was definitely cold and I was shivering like hell. I held myself to try to keep myself warm and then Rin suddenly wraps his arms my shoulder and brought me closer to him. I didn't bother saying anything even thought we practically had a bad day together.

"Hey, I'm sorry for earlier."

"You don't have to apologize, Rin."

"Well, I am now, and I shouldn't be making this day horrible. Especially you are here in Australia, I should at least be respectful of your stay here and show you around a bit more."

"No need to. I already took my own tours myself. So, there really isn't any point in trying Rin."

Rin got quiet and just stared up at the sky. I can feel his hand grip my left shoulder a bit tight.

"Trying, huh? We never tried to fix things."

When he said that, I can feel my heart beat. I didn't want to look at him at this point. How could he justd drop tat line out of nowhere. I couldn't even think of anything to say and just stayed quiet. Rin started to sigh.

"I thought today would be a good day to even confess everything to you."

"What do you mean?"

Rin let go of me and then made me look at him. He had the most expressionless face towards me and there was no way I can just clear it off my imagination. Rin was about to speak but then I stood up right away, grabbing the gift out of my bag and then put it in front of me.

"Rin, before you say anything. I have something for you."

With the gift in front of me, I bowed at the same time.

"You don't really have to take it or anything but I thought it would be best to give you a Christmas gift on this special day."

I looked up a bit and Rin's face looked like it was about to bloom in some sort of weird happiness. He didn't even budge out of his seat. I wiggled the gift in front of my hand and then Rin woke up from his day dream of whatever he was seeing into.

"Aya?! You didn't have to get me anything." his voice sounded a little concerned.

He stood up and he held my hands with the gift. The huge yells and random fights between us was forgotten by this one little gift. He got a hold of it and sat back down. I still stood up in front of him and looked at him just holding it.

"Come on. Shouldn't you be opening it right now?"

"Yeah...I should."

I noticed something in his face trail down. A tear strolled down hi face and I immediately bended on my knees and held his face.

"Rin, what's wrong?"

He was crying so much that I ended up hugging him. I wasn't expecting him to cry but when I held him in my arms. I believed that he needed this. I broke up with him, and I can tell by the way he is now, he tried so hard in life without me and ended up seeing me again. Rin didn't need to cry at all. I should have been the one crying not him. I held him more tighter this time and I can feel his own hands wrapping around my waist. It was a long hug between us and I didn't want to let go.

"I'm so sorry, Rin….I'm so sorry."

Rin continued to cry into my chest as I apologized to him. It was my fault from the very beginning. Rin had a sensitive heart and I have to admit I took that advantage and hurt him even more. I truly loved Rin and I managed to break someone's heart because of my own selfish reasons. I let go of him this time and tried to cheer him up as much as I can and it took a few minutes. Once he was calmed down, Rin looked at the necklace and I helped him put it on.

"Did you get me this because my name sounds like a girl?"

"Pfft. No. I bought this because I wanted you to wear something from me. Something that will mean a lot and that precious treasure you cannot lose. Plus, it's a gift from me, Rin. But I hope you appreciate it."

I started to fidget with my fingers and he placed a hand on both of them. I looked at him and he smiled at me. He ruffled my hair and then gave out a sigh.

"I can't believed I acted like a total baby."

We both started to laugh and I couldn't help but make fun of him. His laughter was already getting to me and this is the expression on wanted to see come out from him. But for today, I know I probably won't really see him after this. I want to bring him back home, but I had this huge gut feeling he won't even come back. It was now getting late and it was time for me to head back to my hotel. Rin decided to take me back and walk me to my room. There was so much more I wanted to say to him. I wanted to tell him how I felt now and what else I had to apologize for. We arrived at the front of my hotel room and we just awkwardly look at each other.

"It was nice being able to see you and hang out with you, despite all our horrible happenings earlier today."

I started to shake my head.

"Rin, we are always at each other's heads. It's normal."

He started to laugh and then he held me by both of my hands.

"Aya."

"Hmm?"

He didn't look at me but I had the courage to listen to him.

"You want me back, don't you?"

My heart skipped a beat and all I could do was stare at him. My voice started to feel like it was about to stutter.

"I know..what you came here for. You wanted to bring me back home."

"Well...it's not-"

"Aya..."

Why did I feel like my heart felt like it was going to shatter? I wanted him back, right?

He let go of my hands and then put one hand on my head.

"Please, go back home for now."

"Rin, I know whatever we did today wasn't something we should go through, especially for our situation. I apologize for what I did. I apologize for everything."

I was losing control of what I wanted to say and Rin didn't look my way at all. I knew this was going to happen, but I couldn't keep myself calm. I wanted to grab a hold of him but I noticed Rin backing away.

"Rin, I STILL LOVE YOU!"

I yelled out. I felt tears go down my face and all he did was turn his back on me.

"I do, too. But we can't be together again."

I tried to keep my composer and just ran towards him and hugged him from behind.

"Then let me at least do this before I leave Australia."

At that moment, between us I had to accept that we were just friends. We cannot be together anymore. After seeing Rin, I started to feel okay right after or so I thought it would be that way. I was still having a bit of pain in my heart still. All the small situation we went through on just that christmas, were stuff that probably he just did to make me remember just us. But for what purpose? Why would he just try to hold my hand or even being someone who I thought I could get back? I didn't know what I was thinking after that day and I just try to forget it. Rin started to text me frequently just in case if I needed anything before it was time to head back home. Once it was time for me to head back home, Rin decided to bring me to the airport. We didn't really talk much in the car ride there but I tried to make small conversations with him that didn't deal with the both of us. I wanted to stay away from talking about it. It was hard to look at Rin in the eyes anyways.

"We are here, Aya."

"Yeah."

He parked the car and helped carry my bags. I had one more hour until it was time for me to depart home. He sat with me waiting until it was time for me to head into the place. He was playing a game on his phone while I just stared blankly at my hands. I wanted to sigh out everything but I didn't want to show that to him. I didn't want Rin to see me even more sad because I know he didn't want me to show that side of me towards him. Rin stopped playing with his phone and then pulled something out of his pocket. He put out one hand and I just looked at it. It was the keys to his place.

"Aya, would you mind doing me a favor?"

"Uh...sure..What's up?"

I stared back at the keys in front of him and then he placed it in my hand.

"I want you, when you have time, head back to our old place and check up on it."

At the back of my mind, I thought he sold that place of his. I looked at the keys in front of me and just held it tight and just nodded.

"Sure. When I'm able to be free from work, I'll check it out. It's probably like dusty and all that inside. Haha."

"Shut up, Aya. I'm just not there to be home."

After he said that, things between us got quiet. I put the keys in my bag right away before I lose it and then I see Rin about to put a hand on my hand.

"Aya-"

Before he could do anything, I got up and then suddenly her the speaker that my flight was ready to leave. I touched my chest and tried not to look back at Rin. I can feel the tears coming out and I just couldn't look back.

"Haha...well..it's looks like...it's time for me to head back home."

Rin looked down to the ground and I just hit his arm lightly.

"What? Are you sad that we didn't get that much time to spend time together. You said it yourself, we can't be together."

Oops, maybe I shouldn't have said that. I cleared my throat and just looked the other way. All of a sudden, Rin gave me a hug and at that moment, I started to cry. He petted my hair.

"I know you were crying so much. I can tell how much you've cried. If you keep up like this, I don't even know what to say, Aya."

"I'm not crying."

"You are."

I tried to stop the tears but at that moment, Rin watched me wipe the tears away as he continued to have his hands on my waist. The tears wouldn't stop strolling down and I had no way to stop it. I took a step back and tried to smile.

"Well, I'm off. Come visit all of us when you can, okay?"

All Rin did was nod. I stood there for a few seconds and we both looked at each other. What went through my mind was.

"Why aren't you stopping me from going?"

"Aren't you going to grab a hold of me and stop me?"

I turned around and just held onto one of my bags and started walking off to the plane. I grabbed a tissue out of my bag and just tried to make sure no one saw my face. It probably looked like a big mess right now and I didn't want anyone to see it. My hands were shaking and my whole body just wanted to dump itself into the sea so I wouldn't have to deal with it all. I sat in my designated seat and just put on music. It was really time to say goodbye…..

Once I got back to the airport in tokyo, I grabbed my things and slowly walked towards the lobby. From my surprise, I see Makoto there. I gave a small wave at him and he waved back. The thought of Rin crossed my mind again and I couldn't help but start to cry once more.

"Aya?!"

Makoto ran towards me and grabbed a hold of my shoulder. I couldn't even speak to him. He gave me a tight hug and told me to calm down. From behind him, I see Haru and that was the person I didn't want to see at the moment. I can feel a tense feeling in Haru's mind that I knew what he would of said. They took me home and Haru was the one who took care of me the whole time once Makoto left. Haru slept next to me on the bed. Of course, we didn't do anything. He stayed by my side, and held me tightly so I wouldn't end up crying again. Everyone wondered why Rin didn't even come back. Sousuke was a bit disappointed at the results. He tried calling Rin a couple of times but no reply. I had to leave Rin alone and I told Sousuke there really isnt any reason to pull Rin back to us. Rin had a life going, and I bet maybe some other woman can take care of him. Rin knew what he needed to do so no one shouldnt even worry. By the time new years eve came, and it was already 8 o' clock at night, I decided to check out Rin's place. I looked at the keys in my hands and said to myself, he had to give me these for a reason. I arrived at our old home and just looked at it.

"Ugh...I bet he probably wants me to clean up in the inside."

I face palm myself in the face and just went inside. I unlocked the door and slowly came in. It was completely quiet.

"Sorry for intruding," I say out loud. I turned on the lights and when I did. The stuff he left behind were still here.

"He didn't even decide to put the stuff in a storage."

I checked around to see if anything was dusty but it looked like someone was taking care of it for him. I checked around and then noticed a note. It was from Gou.

"Stupid Brother, you gave me a key just to make sure this place stays clean when you are away. Hopefully you come back, because this will always be yours and Aya's home. Whenever you come back give me a call."

I started to laugh and just put the note inside a drawer. I looked around again and all of sudden a bunch of flashbacks came back. All the times Rin and I would mess around and those lovey dovey moments that happened between us.

"I'm surprised I'm not even pregnant yet."

I looked out to the backyard where his pool was and Gou pretty much made sure the place was still clean. What really was the point of me coming back here? I decided to just turn on the TV and watch whatever. I was definitely remembering of course. I turned on the news and waited for new years to happen. It felt like I was going to have a new year resolution where I don't have to be with any guy. Suddenly, I heard the front door open and I looked back really fast.

"Who's that? Maybe it's Gou."

I lowered the volume down and walked to the entrance. If it was Gou, than I had to explain myself why I'm here.

"I wasn't expecting anyone to come over. Sorry Gou if it was-"

I dropped the controller from my hand and was wide eyed. The person in front of me wasn't Gou. My heart skipped a beat so fast and I didn't even expect this to happen.

"Aya..."

My whole body felt like it was about to shut off but instead, the person in front of me, grabbed a hold of my wrist and pulled me. I followed. We headed to the bedroom. I see the person in front of me taking off his coat and rushed towards me and kissed me right away. We both fell to the bed and my eyes were still open. The person's tongue devoured the inside of my mouth and I finally got a hold of myself.

"RIN! STOP!"

The person in front of me was Rin. I held him tightly by his shoulder and felt his face.

"What are you doing here?"

"I came back to get you back."

"What?"

Rin's face burrowed in my chest and he held me tight.

"I was wrong to say what I said back in Australia. I was so wrong."

"Rin..."

I tried to raise his head in front of me but he didn't budge.

"I thought that it would completely be best to stay away from you. But my thoughts of you continued to go crazy. I thought about what we had, I thought about how much you cried. I thought strongly about us. I..I'm in love with you and I eternally want you back, Aya."

Was this a dream? I didn't know how to function out of this and I see the man in front of me confessing all this like it was urgent.

"Is it right for us to be together again?"

Rin grabbed a hold of my hand and held it close to his heart and then kissed it.

"I wouldn't rush back here, just to tell you all that. I gave you the keys for a reason. It was either giving you the keys to be with you again or to let you have my place without me."

"But I have my own place, thanks to my dad."

"I don't care. This is OUR home."

The honesty that was coming out of Rin's words hit me hard. I didn't cry and I felt like the burden was lifted. I grabbed a hold of him and hugged him so tight and he did the same. He started to kiss my forehead a couple of times and then suddenly he looked at me in the eyes.

"We are both going to make this right, and this time…."

Rin got off me and rushed to get something out of his jacket. I sat up but he was hiding it away from me. Rin comes back slowly, taking off his clothes and my face started to turn red.

"Rin….wait..."

Rin got on top of me suddenly and then pulled my bottoms down and at that moment without even being able to think about what just happened. A sharp pain had went through me and I felt hot.

"Ugh.."

A moan came out of my mouth and I wasn't expecting him to do such a thing. Rin's mouth comes closer to my ear this time and I slightly had my eyes open.

"It's been awhile since I entered you...but this time...I'm going to make it a scene you never seen before. This time...I want you to truly feel all of me."

His voice wrecked my soul really hard and then I felt something on my finger. I looked and noticed a ring on my wedded finger.

"Rin? Is this….ah~~"

Rin made a deep movement and I held his shoulder tightly, because it hurt.

"Will you marry me, Aya?"

He made another thrust and I wanted to scream. Rin started to smirk.

"God do I miss that erotic expression of yours….I want more…."

He thrust once more again and I couldn't even open my eyes. I ended up kissing Rin, and it wasn't a normal kiss it was more passionate and wet. Between the kisses.

"Take all of me….if you want my answer."

I can feel Rin's smile grow between kisses. Rin held me tighter and then picked me up, pinning me to the wall of the bedroom.

"Then I will. But first, let me finish where I left off from back in Australia. Pay back for pushing me out of the fitting room and get bombarded by those annoying girls."

"Like I give a shit, Rin."

He bit me at the same spot he did to me in the dressing room.

Everything was unfinished, but this time it was complete. I couldn't even remember everything he did to me and it just felt like some dream was playing with my mind. I could feel the pain in my stomach but a good pain. The harsh breathing between us, the intense heat that was making us sweat, and all over the bedroom was rummaged with all our actions and Rin was an animal getting back his prey.

The next morning...I woke up sore. I can feel Rin's breath blowing at my bag and his arm still wrapped around my naked body. I turned around and looked at him. He looked exhausted from that dirty scenario we just did and then I looked at my finger that had a pretty ring on it. It was a pure white diamond, that had a little diamonds in the middle that signify a heart. I noticed Rin staring at me and then he brought me closer to him.

"Happy new years, honey."

"Honey?"

Rin made an annoyed face.

"We are now engaged, idiot."

I pinched his nose really hard and then he slapped my butt. My face went red and he stick his tongue out. We both started to laugh and I noticed a bit of tears coming at he side of his eyes.

"I can't believe I proposed to you that way."

"You were hungry for the V."

"Shut up."

His face was adorably red and I started to pinch both of his cheeks. I noticed that we did it without a condom this time and I literally slapped him on the face.

"OUCH!"

"OMG….we did it without even thinking."

"So what? It's okay."

"RIN!"

I started hitting him with the pillow. He got a hold of both my wrists and then pinned me on the bed and kissing me.

"I'm really happy, Aya. I'm amazingly happy to have you in my life. No one has ever made me be this way and no matter what we do in bed is something I amazingly will cherish and you can't say no to that."

I started to puff my cheeks up and then watched as Rin comes closing the gap in and then hugging me. His bare body and mine literally just intertwine with each other and we didn't even bother to let go. I had someone this time. It was someone that I was able to share my own life with. He made me forget everything of my past. He was definitely someone fateful that I've met. Someone who I would just shortly become friends with and become something more.

"Happy new year!" Rin says while giving me a long kiss and I just smiled.

"Happy new years to you too, hubby."

Rin's face began to turn red and I couldn't help but laugh at the man I'm about to get married to.

A few hours later, we both decided to go meet up with the others at a shrine to give our prayers and new years resolutions, but once we stepped out the door, Rin and I got stopped. A woman who looked a bit older than us just smiled and had her arms crossed in front of her.

"This is the Matsuoka household, am I right?"

Rin puts me behind him and just confronted the lady in front of him.

"Yes, ma'am. Do you have any business with me?"

The lady just shook her head and then turn to look at me. She pointed at me this time and then slyly looked at Rin.

"I need to have a word with my daughter."
