Maybe Yes By Yu

Yu's words:

This story is created by me. All incidents are not real. Words in green are memories. Words in white are Kurei's thoughts.

"Kurei-sama!" Neon shouted as she carried a bowl of soup into the living room.

"Kurei-sama. Kurei-sama." Neon smiled at him as he was talking with Raiha and Joker.

"Kurei-sama. Neon's calling you." Raiha whispered to him as he tried not to respond.

Why Neon always cook the soup?, Kurei thought as he saw Neon carrying the bowl.

"Kurei-sama. This soup is good for your health." Neon smiled as she handed the bowl to him. "Please drink it. Please." She smiled and walked back into the kitchen.

Kurei looked at Raiha and Joker, hoping they would help him to drink.

"Kurei-sama. Neon SPECIALLY cooks for you!" Joker said as he didn't want to drink. "I think you better drink it."

"Kurei-sama." Raiha added. "Drink a bit."

"Good for my health? I think it'll harm rather good." Kurei said as he disliked to drink.

Kurei poured the soup into a pot of roses near him. And passed the soup to Raiha and left the living room.

I'm sorry.

Will you forgive me?

I'm sorry....Neon

"Kurei-sama. Please drink it." Neon smiled at him.

Kurei was angry as he hated to drink it. But Neon cooked it everyday for him. Finally he decided to ask her not to cook again.

"I don't want to drink!" Kurei shouted. "Stop cooking!"

"But Kurei-sama... It was good for you." Neon smiled as she knew that Kurei was unhappy to drink it everytime she handed it to him.

"GOod?" Kurei said. "I think it Harms rather good." He looked angry at Neon.

"And stop cooking before I get very angry." Kurei added. "Or I'll make you break your promise." Then he left Neon standing alone in the living room.

Why will I said those words?

Neon....

Why will I said those words to hurt you?

Will you forgive me?

If you awake, I'll do anything even to drink the soup everyday..

Please wake up.

Remember your promise...

"If you don't mind, I'll be with you till the end. We can find some place to settle down

Kurei looked at Neon. She was sleeping for few weeks from the day she fainted. He still remembered her last words before she fainted.

"I Love you, Kurei-sama! Forever love you." Neon's voice ran through his mind.

"Kurei, now you can understand." Neon asked as she told them the whole incident.

"Stop it. It's a story, right?" Kurei shouted as he hated people who said bad things about Kurenai, even though she had died few years ago.

"No, it's not. Kurei-sama." Neon answered. "Why you didn't chose me? Do you feel anything for me?"

"Kurei-sama. I love you whole-heartilly." Neon said softly. "I want to be at your side."

"Stop it, Neon!" Kurei shouted angrily. "It's your story. You want to know the answer?"

Kurei looked at them and said, "Kurenai...happy? Now leave."

Tears falling down Neon's cheeks. She knew she lost to Kurenai. Kurei-sama hated her. He didn't believe in her words.

"Kurenai, please." Neon said softly to Kurenai and turned to look at Kurei.

Neon smiled sweetly and added, "SAYONARA, Kurei-sama. "

Then she felt darkness in her eyes, she knew she had to go. Went to a place where she would not see her beloved Kurei-sama again. But she tried to say out her last words to him.

"Neon.." Raiha shouted as he saw Neon fainted in front of him.

"Kurei-sama." Joker shouted to attract his attention.

Kurei saw Raiha holding the pale Neon in his arms and suddenly he heard Neon's voice

"I Love you, Kurei-sama! Forever love you."

"It's true?" Raiha asked Kagero when the Hokage Ninjias arrived at Kurei's house. It had been a few days after Neon fainted.

"Then you mean Neon was not the real her but was actually Kurenai?" Joker asked.

"You are right." Kagero answered.

"Then what shall we do?" Recca asked as he saw his brother looking at the 'sleeping' Neon on the bed.

"You have to choose either Kurenai or Neon." Kagero answered. "The chosen one will be awake. Then the other will be leaving us." Then she looked at Kurei.

"Then who will the chosen one?" Koganei asked as he looked at Neon.

"I told her that I chose Kurenai." Kurei said softly as he recalled what he replied to Neon's question.

"That means...Neon will be leaving us." Koganei said.

"I thought she was kidding." Kurei said. "....will it be too late?" As he found himself missing her smile and everything even the soup she always cooked.

"Neon...please wake up...." Kurei whispered softly to Neon.

Will Kurenai be the chosen one?

Why I didn't feel happy about it? Had I forgot about her?

Why is my heart in pain when I saw Neon fainted in front of my eyes?

When I was told that Neon would be leaving us?

Will it be too late? Too late to realise that I had fallen for her.

Will she be awake?

While Kurei was busy thinking, Neon awoke. She found herself lying on Kurei's bed. When Kurei saw Neon awoke, he called for Raiha and the rest.

"She woke up!" Koganei shouted.

"Finally!" Fuuko, Yanagi and Recca shouted as it had been a few weeks.

"Are you alright?" Joker asked Neon.

"WHo are you?" Neon asked when she saw Joker. "Raiha, who is he?"

"It's me, Joker. Neon, you forgot me?" Joker asked. "Then you remember Raiha and him?" As he pointed Kurei and Raiha to Neon.

"Of course. Even I seldom see Raiha, but I knew him. Because he had always protected Kurei for me when I'm not around." Neon smiled. "And him." She looked at Kurei.

"I'll never forget our promise." Neon smiled.

"..." Kurei looked at Neon.

"I don't want to be a beautiful flower with short lifespan. Even I grew ugly, I just want to stay with you forever." Neon smiled."....to be with the gentle you.

Everyone was shocked as they realised that she was not Neon.

"..." Kurei was shocked. "You're Kurenai."

"Kurenai." Recca said and looked at his mother.

"That means that Kurenai is the chosen one." Kagero said.

"Kurei...I finally can be with you." Kurenai said. "I know Neon loved you very much."

"But now I'll be at your side forever." She smiled.

"Kurei, I love you."

It is too late.

Neon had left me. Neon..Neon.

It's my fault. When you were by my side, I never treasured you.

Now you were gone. I know you wanted to be with me.

I'll be with you. Taking care of Kurenai who was living in your body.

I'll never forget you.
