Chapter 26
Aido's POV
I can't believe that I just saw that. I never thought that I would be the one that got to see Kaname propose to Zero. They look so cute together I can't wait to tell the others what I just saw. Everyone will be excited, we have all been wanting Kaname to propose to Zero soon they are so perfect for one another.
There is only one problem that I see with their engagement and that has to do with Yuki. She is still so madly in love with Zero heaven only knows what she would do to try to get him back with her. Not that she poses much of a threat anyways because Kaname can take her on any day, but he may not want to hurt her considering he once felt that he loved her and also because even though Zero broke up with her we all know that Zero still thinks of her as one of his most dear friends, and Kaname would never want to hurt anyone that Zero cares about.
Oh well no point of dreading on things that haven't happened yet, besides it's a happy time because Kaname finally has his beloved Zero all to himself just like he has always wanted, who knows maybe if Kaname is even more lucky there might be a little baby crawling around here. Oh how I can`t wait for that day to arrive.
I quickly skipped off to my dear cousin's room. I barge in the room with a giant smile on my face. "You won't believe what I just saw Akatuski!" I say as I jump on the bed wrapping my arms around him. I know that he probably still loves Zero but I think that he will enjoy hearing that Zero will be happy.
"Oh! And what exactly did you see?" Akatuski asks while flipping through his book. Even though we are together right now he isn't that affectionate towards me, but then again he was hoping that he would be with Zero and he never really saw me as an option before. Well I shouldn't dwell on the past I'm sure that given sometime Akatuski will be more in love with me even more than he ever was with Zero, I mean it's not like they were ever a couple it was only Akatuski's fantasy that they would be together.
"I just got to witness Kaname Sama proposing to Kiryu Kun!" I say excitedly. "I can't believe how fast everything seems to be happening, not that I mind because I have never seen Kaname Sama look so happy. Who knew that it would be Kiryu Kun that would be the one that would help Kaname Sama be able to smile again? I can't believe that at one point in time I couldn't stand being around Kiryu Kun, but now I can't imagine not having him being a part of our group." I tell my Akatuski with a giant smile on my face. I look over towards him to see how he has taken to the news of Kaname Sama's and Kiryu Kun's engagement.
When I look at Akatuski I'm greeted with a blank stare on his face the book in his hand completely forgotten as he lets go of it and it falls onto his lap. The smile that was once present on my face disappears and turns into a frown. This isn't the reaction that I was expecting from him, I had thought that maybe, just maybe that he would have been able to get over Kiryu Kun faster than this, but I guess that I was wrong.
I don't know if he will ever be able to get over Kiryu Kun. I really want him to be over him though because Kiryu is going to be with Kaname Sama. I have loved Akatuski for so long why can't he look at me the way that he looks at Kiryu Kun. Am I not deserving of his love? I don't want to change anything about me just so that he would look at me, I am happy with who I am I wish that he would find me attractive or that he even just found me to be a suitable partner for him. Why does it seem that we always want people who can never truly be ours?
Akatuski's POV
I know that I should have been expecting this, but somewhere deep down I had hoped that Zero and Kaname Sama wouldn't last and that Zero would want to be with me. Of course I knew this was nothing more than just a dream for me, but no one can blame me for wanting Zero so much. He's just so beautiful and smart. Actually there are so many words that one could describe Zero with but for me the word that I should be using is absolute perfection.
I feel bad for leading Hanabusa on but I thought that maybe he would be able to release me from my love and desire towards Zero, but things did not turn out the way that I had hoped. I will try to make it up to Hanabusa by trying my best to shower him with love and affection, but as of right now before I can even go through with that I will have to make sure that I have somewhat gotten over my feelings towards Zero.
"I'm sorry Akatuski, I should have kept that to myself and I should have waited until Kaname Sama and Kiryu Kun had made an official statement about their engagement." Hanabusa says slowly making his way off the bed.
"Hold on." I say as I grab onto his arm trying to pull him closer to me.
"What is it?" He asks me, and I can see that his eyes are starting to water.
"Thank you for telling me, I would rather hear this from someone that loves and cares about me then having to hear about it in front of people where I would have nowhere to hide. I also just wanted to say that I'm sorry I haven't been fair to you, but I want you to know that I am trying my best to get over him because I want to try and start a life with you." I say to him sweetly as I give him a kiss at the top of his head.
I watch as his facial expression turns into a smile and I hear him laugh as tears run down his face. "I just wish that you would think about me like that right now, I love you so much Akatuski I hate knowing that there is someone else that you care about more than me." He says wrapping his arms around my neck. I can feel his tears drip down onto my shirt.
"I know and I wish that there was something that I could do that could help take your pain away Hanabusa, but just give me some time and will try my best to make you as happy as I can. I do love you Hanabusa." I say kissing him on the lips.
