Chapter 12
Garden
"It's so beautiful here Van." Hitomi said walking over to a patch of flowers. Van just stood there and watched her thinking back to what his advisors had said.
*Should I? No, its too early, I mean she just got back. But I need to make a decision soon!*
"What are you thinking about?" Hitomi asked snapping him back to reality.
"Its nothing."
"Does it have to do with what happened in your meeting?"
Van looked at her and smiled, " Yes, my advisors are pressuring me to marry soon and I don't know what to tell them."
Van thought that he saw a flicker of sadness cross Hitomi's face, but she quickly covered it up with a small smile. "Who do they want you to marry?"
"They're hoping I'll choose a princess from another country so Fanalia will be stronger, but I'm not so sure."
"How come?"
"Well it would be an arranged marriage and there would be no real feelings in it, just that I would have done something for the best of Fanalia. Let me put it this way, it wouldn't be a very personal marriage."
Hitomi turned back around. *Poor Van, I wish I could do something. But from what he is saying they'll only let him marry royalty.*
Van walked up to her back, putting his arms around her waist. She let out a little gasp but quickly leaned into his embrace smiling as she shut her eyes and enjoyed his company, his warmth.
"Hitomi..." Van whispered into her hair.
"Yes?"
Burying his face deeper into her hair and neck he said, "Why do you do this to me?"
"Do what Van?" she asked turning around placing her hands on his chest. She looked into his eyes waiting for his answer.
"Make me feel the way I do?"
She gave him a sly smile and asked, "And how might that be?" Hitomi stood up on her toes, closer to his face.
Van breathed in her scent and whispered, " That feeling deep down inside that makes me think about you all the time," he leaned down and brushed his lips to hers, "even in my dreams."
Hitomi smiled and Van kissed her hard on the lips. Hitomi leaned into it and Van slanted his mouth over hers, deepening the kiss, letting his tongue slide into her mouth, electrifying her to the core.(Remember this is her first REAL kiss.) She slide her arms around his neck as his arms tightened around her waist and let his hands glide up the back of her shirt. He began to run his fingers up and down her spine. Hitomi purred in his mouth and played with the hair in the back of his neck. (Lets just say she got a reaction she wasn't expecting! o_O)
The kiss ended due to the lack of air and the two of them just stood there holding each other, savoring the moment.
Van finally broke the embrace when he felt a drop of water on his face.
"Hitomi," He said slightly pulling away from her. "We should go back inside, I think its going to rain."
*Sigh* "Alright," she said taking his hand and walking back to the castle.
The rain started coming down harder and Van took off into a run dragging a shrieking Hitomi along behind him. What they didn't see was a soaking wet figure step out from behind a tree.
*Wait until the advisors blow their heads off* Que walked away, smirking at his discovery.
