Special Chapter: A Very Persona Christmas

[Non- Conan to Memories of You]

Christmas Eve


Minato took a quick shower and put on his clothes hastily. He woke up later than usual and even Junpei had left for school already. Underwear, check. Pants, check. No rip in pants, check.

Last night, he took Koromaru out with Yukari. They went to the old shrine and Koromaru was more excited than usual.

As the dog frolicked around on his own, Yukari pulled him aside. They sat at the ledge, and she looked slightly frazzled. She pulled his arm around her waist as they watched the youthful dog play.

Her head leaned against his chest and he put his chin on top. "H-hey... I have a question, but it might sound weird..." she mumbled, the wind blew and she snuggled closer into his chest.

"You know what day tomorrow is, right?" She peaked at his face. He smirked, "Yeah."

She blushed heavily, "I'm gonna have something ready, just in case you have time tomorrow..."

He grinned, "I have something for you too... Don't worry." He felt her elbow his ribs playfully.

"Hmph!" She pouted her lips. Minato engulfed her in a bear hug as she laughed; she pushed him away before she forgot how to breathe, "I'm serious!"

"I'm serious too." Minato whispered in her ears, he felt her body temperature rise up against the cold winter winds. Before she could protest, he pressed his lips on hers. She relented at first, but slowly she gave in and her lips parted.

If they were in her room, they would have been rolling about by now. After a while, Minato heard Koromaru whine. He turned to look at the dog and saw that he was constantly blowing his nose.

"Aww... The poor pup's got sand up his nose!" Yukari laughed, tugging at her dress, she reached down to stroke the dog, "Let's get you home, alright?"


GEKKOUKAN HIGH

2-F's CLASSROOM

LUNCHTIME

Minato sat at his desk with Junpei. He was depressed, definitely.

"Man... I wish I could spend this Christmas with Chidori... But she's lost all her memories and now she thinks I'm a weirdo who won't leave her alone..." He groaned, "AH THE AGONY!"

Behind him, Kenji laughed. He stole Junpei's cap and revealed his short crew cut. "H-Hey! Wazzup with that!"

"You gotta set your horizons man... There are plenty of babes out there rather than what's-her-name!" Kenji grabbed Junpei's hands and they started to dance a waltz in the middle of the classroom.

As the two class clowns danced, Minato felt his phone vibrate. He slipped his hand into his pockets and retrieved the cell.

"Sorry to wait till the last minute but today's Christmas eve... you wanna go somewhere after school?" read the text.

Minato smiled. His fingers gliding across the key pad, Y.E.S.

The bell rung and everybody returned to their seats. Junpei seemed much happier after his waltz with Kenji and Minato was glad. Yukari returned to class with her friends and before she sat down, he caught her smile.


AFTER SCHOOL

"Alright! Let's go! I heard Paulownia Mall had set up lights all over the place!" Yukari giggled, "I've been looking forward to it."

Minato chuckled, "Okay okay... C'mon, let's go." He grabbed his bag and held her hand. She blushed heavily, but today was Christmas, and she didn't push him away.


PAULOWNIA MALL

"It's beautiful..." Yukari gasped. Her heart skipping beats and her lungs forgot to breathe. Her hands were still enclosed within Minato's warm hands, but they were outside school now, and she wanted his hands around her waist.

Screw the rumours! Yukari suddenly laughed, he looked at her as if she had gone nuts. She looked into his midnight-blue eyes and her lungs failed her again.

He laughed, "You're supposed to be looking at the lights, not me you know?" His hand clutched hers tightly.

She felt her blush deepen. She turned to look at the lights. Rows of tiny blubs hung from the ceiling, creating a shower of lights. Next to the fountain were two small Christmas trees, decorated with lights and stars. It really was beautiful.

"I could look at this all night long..." She cooed. They held hands and walked around the mall. After a while, she led him to the bench and they sat down.

"I-I have a present for you." She smiled, his smirk made her face become unbearably hot. She reached into the suspicious bulge in her bag and retrieved a small chocolate cake, "It's been a while, so I hope it still tastes alright..."

He took the cake, smiling. "C'mon... let's share it, it's the season of sharing, isn't it?"


Yukari nodded. He let her take a bite, chocolate smeared all over her mouth; they laughed loudly and didn't care about the weird stares from passer-bys. "Alright alright, you got me. My turn!" she growled playfully.

Suddenly Minato pushed his lips against hers. Stunned, Yukari didn't react. He removed himself and frowned, "...I'm sorry..."

She ignored the cake in his hands and grabbed his head, she pushed her lips to his and soft kisses quickly turned into frenzied ones. Minato suddenly stopped, he gasped, "...Wow." She laughed.

The cake was now all over them, and obviously no longer edible. Yukari sighed, "You didn't even get to eat it..."

Minato smiled devilishly, "Sure I did." He licked his lips. Yukari got the idea and kicked his shin, "We're in public...!"

Minato put his hand on his heart, "Well you're the one who-"

She waved her arms frantically, "No, no! Stop!"

He laughed his melodious, musical laugh. He reached into his bag and took out a box, "Merry Christmas."

Yukari felt her heart ache, "Thank you...!" She shook the contents, "What's inside...?"

Minato grinned, "Open it."


She tore open the wrapping paper and opened the box, inside was a brand purse that was frequently featured on Tanaka's Show but Yukari never had enough money to buy on for herself.

She felt like she wanted to cry, "Oh my gosh... I can't believe it..." He chuckled.

She hugged him, and she felt him wrap his arms around, just as he did the first time during Yakushima... She whispered softly, "Thank you... Minato."

They spent some time together, in each other's arms. "You know... When I first met you... I never thought that I'll be spending time together with you like this..."

He chuckled, "Me, neither... Nobody can predict the future, Yukari."

She laughed softly, "yeah"


10.30pm

Minato felt his phone vibrate, "Hmm? It's 10.30 already?"

"Whoa... Time flies when you're having fun, huh?" Yukari smiled peacefully, she snuggled into Minato's chest, "But... we can stay a little longer... right?"

Minato's brow arched. Yukari stammered as she started to blush, "I-I mean... Everyone else is gonna be back late since its Christmas..."

"Hmmm... Yeah." Minato laughed, "We can stay."


IWATODAI DORM

11.10pm

MINATO'S ROOM

"Why my room..."

Yukari jumped onto the bed, "Cause we've always been in my room, so since it's Christmas, it's time to shake things up a bit." She chuckled.

She looked around his room. Everything was neat, it was as if he never touched anything since the day he moved in, but his scent was there and Yukari blushed as she thought about having his scent.

He sat next to her and embraced her tightly, "You know I'm not letting you out tonight, right?"

Yukari suppressed a yelp, "W-what?"

"Oh you know... when a lady call upon a gentleman in his room... it means something, you know?" He clung on to her waist and his lips brushed her neck, chuckling.

Yukari felt her temperature rise dangerously, "T-They'll hear us...!"

"No use protesting tonight..." He growled playfully. He reached out to grab her, and pinned her down on his bed, she giggled as they rolled about, and Minato whispered in her ear, "I can keep you quiet if I keep my lips locked on yours."
