Chapter 13 - Questionable Thoughts/Feelings/etc.
Touya hesitated. 'What would Hinako say? How would she answer?' he thought. He cleared his throat and pulled on his collar, already sweating a little. He looked at Hinako who was watching him and looked away so he wouldn't get distracted.
Hinako watched Touya fluster and stop again. She was curious as to what he would ask, but at the same time amused at his movements. Finally he started talking, "Er... I hope this won't... ruin... our... uh, friendship, in any way..." Hinako didn't keep her eyes off him, though he didn't look up. She wondered if he changed his mind about things. That obviously concerned them both.
"Are you... I mean, you aren't who you seem to be." 'What?' Hinako didn't understand for a moment, until she looked into his eyes that looked up to her. Then she understood what he meant. Her heart raced but she asked calmly, "What do you mean, Touya-san?"
At this, Touya became even more flustered. He didn't really know how to respond to that comeback, but his mouth somehow did. "You're kind of like Yuki."
"Er... Yukito-san? Of course I'm not Yukito-san!" Hinako exclaimed, then blushed at her stupid response.
Touya thought for a moment. Then he shook his head. "No, you are a lot like Yuki in that sense." His eyes bore into hers.
"Uh..." Hinako looked away from Touya. She smiled nervously. "I have some housework to do. Maybe you should do your homework." She stood up and walked toward the kitchen. Touya watched her and sighed. 'Well, at least you tried, buddy.' he consoled himself and walked to his room.
In the kitchen, Hinako tried to clean the kitchen except that it was already sparkling clean. She sweatdropped and came back to the table and sat. "Well, I suppose this means he hasn't changed his mind..." she said softly. 'Or maybe he didn't even think about it in all this time.' a part of her mind said a bit evilly. "Hmm..." she pursed her lips.
Touya laid on his bed thinking. 'She's different... but... why won't she admit it? I know I felt that aura coming from her... right?' He concentrated. He felt a dim violet aura next to the dining table. 'Sad? Or just tired? I hope she's just tired. I don't want her to be sad...'
'I think I should go outside.' Hinako stood up and walked to the door. She opened it and was about to go outside when she felt a hand on her wrist. She looked back and saw Touya. She blushed. "Uh... I'm just going to go outside for a little bit." she smiled nervously and Touya let go. She closed the door behind her softly and walked to the park.
Touya wondered whether to follow her or not. Finally, he decided to stay home. After all, Hinako can be trusted. He left a bit of him on her so he'd know she was okay.
"He loves me... He loves me not... He loves me... He loves me not..." Hinako plucked each petal of a pretty little flower she found near the bench she was sitting on. She just wanted to see what the flower had to say. "He loves me... He loves me not... He loves me..." she stopped. There was just one more petal left. She knew that flowers didn't really help in deciding things but she just couldn't help but gasp.
"That's okay, it doesn't matter what the pretty flower just said," she consoled herself, "You can see for yourself..." 'Hm, I guess I wouldn't be a very good person to make one feel better...' She slowly walked back to Kinomoto residence.
Meanwhile in Touya's room...
"For making a beautiful girl sad, I will now make her happy!! And-" Touya stopped. "Did I just say... beautiful? Girl?" He flopped onto his bed. "What's wrong with my mind these days..."
Hinako opened the door and heard a "HA!" from upstairs. She looked up and smiled a little sadly, remembering what the little flower told her.
Touya nodded wisely to himself. "Of course, something evil has come over me- now I *MUST* defeat it!" He had a finger up in the air, his arm stretched. (so it's not exactly like Takashi's ^_^ actually it's more like Yolei's ^_^... hehe i don't know her japanese name... oh well) The door creaked open and he looked to his right, his finger still up in the air. Then he blushed. "Uh... uh... er-" he stuttered.
Hinako cocked her head to the side. "What are you doing, Touya-san? Do you need help in something?"
Surprised, Touya just shook his head. Hinako let her hands fall to her side. "Okay." She smiled. "Have fun." She closed the door softly behind her. She sighed and leaned against his door gently. She could hear him muttering to herself but she didn't want to even try to listen to what he was saying. She propped her knees up and leaned her head on them.
Later...
Touya yawned and stretched his arms. He just finished his homework and he felt great. He put his hand to the doorknob and slowly turned it. He pulled the door towards him and something fell. He looked down and gasped. He stared at Hinako's sleeping form for a moment, then picked her up gently. "Poor girl."
Touya carried her to her room and laid her on her bed. Then he sat down on a chair and just watched her. Her chest moved slowly up and down. She started to move and Touya thought she woke up, but she just curled to her side and resumed her peaceful sleep. He looked at her and before he could think about what he was doing, he walked to the bed and laid down next to her. Soon, he was sleeping.
