Alice had just finished cleaning up the café and was getting ready to head upstairs when the sound of rushing wind filled the air. She carefully scanned the dimly lit room, a faint silver glow illuminating the tables and chairs. She turned around, and jumped when she saw a shadow approaching her. A moonbeam shone through the window, revealing a dark ponytail.
"Shun…" She sighed, relieved. "How did you get in?"
"The front door was still open, so I let myself in." He answered, a small smile forming on the edge of his mouth.
"Oh, right…"
She proceeded to going to lock the door when Shun's body blocked her path. Her heartbeat quickened, as she felt his hand moving down her side, settling on her hip.
"Looks like we're alone; it's just you and me, Alice." He murmured, his face inching closer toward hers.
"No, Shun," she said, slowly breaking away from him. "No… not yet."
Alice turned away but Shun gently took her face in his hand. She looked up at him once again, staring into his golden topaz eyes; their usual intense gaze was lost, replaced by a much softer, almost innocent look.
She wanted to walk away; to save this for another time, but his eyes were so beautiful she found she couldn't tear herself away from them.
"No-one needs to know…" He whispered, as his mouth came down over hers.
The next chapter will be V for Visit!
The last five chapters are going to be a little rushed, seeing as I only have a couple more days to finish the challenge. Wish me luck!
