Tasuki felt his punch connect, then heard a whimper, which made his anger fade to recognition. He dropped his fist limply to his side and stared, in shock, at the bruise that was quickly forming on Miaka's cheek.
"Oh Suzaku…what…what have I done?" He whispered. He heard a low chuckle come from the side.
"And you said you could do better…you just punched her…" Tamahome said in a mocking tone. His anger quickly came back as he made an attempt to lunge at Tamahome, but someone held him back.
"Don't Tasuki…she has made her choice…he's not worth it." Chichiri said calmly. Tasuki turned to face Miaka, his vision blurred by tears.
She has made her choice…he thought. She was protecting Tamahome…I'll never be more than what I am now to her… He had barely found his voice when he spoke.
"Mi…Miaka…I'm sorry…" He apologised quietly, then turned, heading quickly into the woods.
"Tasuki…wait…" She tried to go after him, but someone grabbed her arm roughly.
"Don't worry about him Miaka…he's just a jerk" Tamahome said angrily. Before she knew what was happening, she slapped him hard across the face.
"You don't know anything about him Taka!" She growled under her breath as she jerked her arm free from his grasp. He just stood there with a stupified look on his face, obviously struck speechless. Miaka turned and went after Tasuki.
Tasuki sat on a boulder, tears streaming silently down his face. He covered his face with his hands and shook his head.
"Miaka….what have I done…" He said, still not believing that he punched her. "Tamahome's right….I was fuckin' stupid to think that I could treat her any better…"
Miaka leaned against a tree as she watched Tasuki from a distance. She wiped away a few stray tears.
"Seeing him like this is breaking my heart…" She whispered, clutching his fan tightly. She looked over when she saw something move out of the corner of her eye and saw Chichiri. He gave her a small smile then a single nod before he slipped his mask on, then dissapeared into his hat. Miaka took a deep breath then started over towards Tasuki.
Tasuki quickly stood, then spun around when he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Miaka…?" He asked, disbelief filing his voice. He shook his head, thinking he might have been seeing things. He opened his eyes to see her standing before him. "What the hell are ya doin' here?!" He asked, turning away from her. "Are ya fuckin' stupid or somethin'?" He looked over his shoulder and gave her a puzzled look as she got into an arrogent stance, with a grin, and tapped his fan on her shoulder. The hell…? He wondered inwardly, then turned to fully face her. Is she makin' fun of me?! He huffed then turned away from her once more asking, "Shouldn't you be with Tamahome?" The fan came to rest on her shoulder as she kept grinning.
"I've made my choice." She simply said. He was furious! First she protected that jerk, now she was gloating about it! He had enough and turned to fully face her again.
"So why come to me about it?! You should go back to your precious Tamahome before I have to kick his a…" He blinked as her small, delicate hand covered his mouth, cutting him off in mid word.
"Will you shut up you idiot?" She said as she took her hand from his mouth. With a grin and one swift movement, she pulled him into a deep passionate kiss by his necklace, which she wouldn't let go of. His eyes went wide with surprise, then slowly, he kissed her back. He closed his eyes as he brought his arms around her slim waist.
