Chapter 3

I screamed and jumped back. Tamahome quickly got up and turned on a lamp. Miaka was standing over me, red with anger.

"Miaka! What are you doing here? Who let you in?" I started showering her with questions.

"Hold on a minute." Tamahome stopped me. "Miaka, there has to be a reason you're so angry. Can you tell us?"

Was he dumb? I thought. Both Miaka and I gave him The Look.

He looked embarrassed. Miaka cleared her throat and said, "I didn't think it was fair. I mean, Tamahome, you're going out with me." She looked rather annoyed.

"Miaka, how jealous can you get? It's just one night. One." Tamahome shot at her.

Miaka started crying. "But Tamahome, you still like me, don't you? Don't you?"

"Of course I do. So does Yui." He looked at me.

What? I thought disgusted. I do not like her. God, what's his problem?

"Miaka, really, please stop that whining. For God's sake, can't you take a joke?

Tamahome got up and went to the bathroom.

"Tamahome doesn't even like you." I went on. "He likes me. It was all a joke."

I hate lying. But this was for a good cause. Miaka starting wailing and ran home.

Tamahome came back from the bathroom.

"Where's Miaka?

"She went home right after saying she really hated you."

"Oh..."

We sat there, thinking in silence. I felt sleepy. I looked down at the floor. When I looked up, Tamahome was looking down at me. He grabbed my chin and lifted it so my face was close to his. Then he kissed me. A soft, long kiss. On the lips. We kissed for what seemed hours. Then we fell asleep still kissing.

So how is it? Please review!
