Chapter 3

"This is such a wonderful day…aaaaaaaah…" Sendoh stretched lazily on the mat he laid out on the lawn and smiling away like a Cheshire cat. The sun is so warm…the cloud so fluffy…he was closing his eyes sleepily when something came spinning down at him before he could say 'lemons'. The 'thing' landed squarely on him and he let out an agonized "ooufff!" before lamenting on his bad luck of having funny things land on him even as he tried to take a break.

Pushing the 'thing' off him with a little effort, Sendoh took a good look at what it was. It's a lady, he noticed. "How did a girl fall out of the clouds on such a day?" He helped the lady up and let her lean against his shoulder.

[A/N: Can you imagine it? An unconscious Rukawa sitting between Sendoh's legs, and leaning on Sendoh, head against his shoulders? Drool…]

"Oi…" He patted her face gently, but there was no response from her.

"Looks like she's real out cold." Sendoh sighed, and picked her up in his arms. Just then, he noticed a huge pair of beautiful white wings on her back. "Oh. My. God." He didn't know that angels really existed. But she felt so solid, just like any human. He took another good look at her face, and drew in his breath sharply.

He had never seen a lady so ethereal…so unbelievably stunning… Her eyes were closed, he couldn't see the colour of her irises, but those elegant, long eyelashes cast faint shadows on her cheeks, and the high nose that could have been taken for aristocracy. Sendoh gaped at her pink lips, suddenly feeling an urge to kiss her...

"Baka! What are you doing?" He mentally cursed himself, "The angel's in trouble, and you are trying to take advantage of her!" He looked away from her face and carried her into the house, up the stairs, and into his room. [A/N: ^_~ drool…]

Sendoh laid the beautiful being on his bed carefully and gently, as if she's made of crystal. Now what he would do is to wait for the angel to wake up.

Damned it…head hurts…

Kaede came to, with an acute pain in his head. He groaned, biting back desire of screaming in agony. "Are you alright?" A warm voice caressed his senses, making him feel almost at home again…how nice… Kaede dropped off into a peaceful sleep.

[A/N: Yeah, he fell asleep. * Sweat *]

* * *

Sendoh jumped when he heard a faint moan from the sleeping beauty – just as he himself was dozing off. "Are you alright?" He rushed over, concerned. A contented look replaced that of pain on the angel's face as she turned round, and resumed her slumber. Sendoh didn't know whether to yell in frustration or to sigh in relief. It was definitely good that she's resting peacefully [A/N: Can you believe I actually wanted to put 'rest in peace'?] and not in pain anymore. But another side of him wanted her to wake up and look at him, and maybe a smile or two on those delicate lips. He longed to hear her voice. His imagination started to run wild…

Sendoh: You are finally awake, my beauty.

Angel: You saved me?

Sendoh: Sort of, I couldn't leave you in the lurch since you fell on me, could I?

A blush would come over those creamy cheeks…

Angel: I did? Oh, I'm so sorry…

Sendoh: It's ok with me; I will always be at your side, my lovely.

Angel: What can I do to repay you?

Sendoh: You could…[Lots of hentai stuff]…

* * *

"WHAMM!!!!!" A loud crash shocked Sendoh from his eh, ecchi thoughts, and he raised his head, only to see that the angel had fallen off the bed. He sighed resignedly and went over to the other side of the bed to pick her up…the lady kicked him, right in the chest. "Ouch!!" He yelled, dropping her on the mattresses.

"No one disturbs me when I'm sleeping." The lady said coolly, sitting up.

"B…but you fell off the bed!" Sendoh protested, still rubbing his chest.

"Suites you right." Kaede laughed inwardly, but remained the cool guy, eh, lady, he was.

"Ok, it's my fault for trying to help you up, ok?" Sendoh groaned, "Are you alright? You've been out cold for about three hours already."

It was only then did Kaede really notice that the man wasn't one of his subordinates in Eternalia. He tensed instantly and grabbed Sendoh's collar, "What am I doing here?"

"Hoah! What a lady!" Sendoh laughed, prying the lady's fingers off his collar, "I should be asking you that, you fell off the clouds…onto me." His tone dropped intimately, leaning closer to her.

Kaede felt the man's warm breath on his cheeks, and all of a sudden he felt the blood in his veins rush to his face. This feeling is so strange, yet so familiar… "Shove off." He pushed the man away roughly.

Sendoh grinned. This lady's definitely got a temper, to think he had been fooled by her frail outer appearance. "What's your name? Mine's Sendoh Akira, but just call me Akira." He persisted.

"Kaede. Rukawa Kaede."
