Hiyee, minna-san! Reia-chan here!? This is my first fanfic in Yami no Matsuei so please forgive me IF there are a lot of mistakes that happen in the story. I know that the stories seem pretty short but I think it's worth reading anyway. This is the SIXTH chapter already. R&R! : )
Disclaimer: I don't own Yami no Matsuei. But Kageyami Saino, Yumeki Sakura, etc. (Upcoming characters not related to YnM) belongs to me.
Between Two Hearts
Chapter 6: Kageyami, A Demon???
~~~~~
The door of Tsuzuki and Hisoka's room suddenly opened. The lime-eyed boy went out of the room.
He noticed Saino, "Are? So you're already here."
"Well actually, I was already here by four," she said sarcastically. "It was so quiet in here so I thought you left. But when I entered the room, I found out that you have slept from reading."
"So you were the one…" he said, giving a cold stare.
She stiffened and thought, "C-could he knew that I was the one who took the bracelet???…"
She asked shakily, "W-what do you mean?…"
He replied, "You were the one who put a blanket on me."
"Oh…" she embarrassedly thought. She sighed in relief, "I thought he knew."
Hisoka suddenly remembered something and tried to dig something in his pocket. Saino was triggered. She turned away from him and stiffened again.
"Are???" he said. "I couldn't find the bracelet. Could I have given her the bracelet in my dreams???"
Saino suddenly turned to him with eyes widely opened. He noticed her staring directly at him, looking surprised.
"Ne? Kageyami?" he asked in bewilderment.
She abruptly turned and said, "Nothing! It's just nothing!?"
He banged the door of the other room. Saino cowered.
He yelled, "How come you're always saying nothing?! Well in fact I know you're hiding something!?"
"Well, what about you?!" she yelled back. "You are also hiding many things from everyone. From what I think… to Tsuzuki!?"
He bowed down, remembering his dream that Saino snatched Sakura away.
He said softly, "You must really be a demon…"
Hearing that from him, she slapped him really hard on the face. His left cheek turned red.
"Don't ever dare call me such!!!" she yelled.
Hisoka looked back at her. Staring at him directly, anger and sadness were etched on her face. Tears were running down fast on the girl's cheeks and the boy can't utter a word. He accidentally entered her memories.
"The Demon! She's already here!!!" (male student)
"Oh no! We must move away!!!" (female student)
"She's here!?!" (male student)
The ebony haired girl with ruby red eyes was walking alone in the middle of the corridor. She was in a uniform with colors red and black (Which fits her looks pretty well) and was holding the strap of her backpack with both hands. Everyone was leaning near either on walls or doors, afraid to go near her.
"Don't go near her…"
"… She'll curse you or something…"
"Yeah…"
That was what everyone thought of her. She bowed her head and hurriedly ran towards her room.
Hisoka thought, "I shouldn't have said that word… It must be very hard for her to carry that burden…"
The main door suddenly opened.
"Tadaima!" the purple-eyed brunette cheerfully said.
The girl shook her head and hurriedly went to the room. She banged the door and locked herself in. She threw herself on the bed and cried silently.
Tsuzuki in bewilderment asked, "Are??? What happened???"
Hisoka turned his head and crossed his arms, "Betsuni…"
Tsuzuki said in satisfaction, "Ah… I see… A lover's quarrel…"
"NANI?!?" Hisoka turned red. "Baka…"
He also left and also locked himself in Tsuzuki's room.
"Huh??? Everyone left???" Tsuzuki thought.
He saw the stew that was left on the table.
He asked them both, "Aren't you going to eat?!"
"Iie!?!" they said in unison.
"Oh well," he shrugged as he sat on the table to eat.
----- Tsuzuki and Hisoka's room -----
The lime-eyed boy was lying on the bed and was staring at the ceiling.
"Saino…" he said, thinking of her.
He sighed, "I'm sure she was hurt by what I said…"
He thought for a moment, feeling guilty over what he said a while ago.
"I should do something. But what???" he thought.He changed his position on the bed.
"I'm sure she wouldn't want to talk to me…"
He sighed again, "Well, at least, maybe, I should try…"
"… tomorrow."
----- Saino's room -----
She buried her face on a pillow, crying hard and releasing her emotions.
"I can't believe I would hear that word again…" she whimpered. "… especially…"
"… from him."
She buried her head even more on it. But due to crying, she had fallen asleep.
~~~ Saino's dream ~~~
The place has swings, slides and seesaws in it. Saino was sitting alone in one of the swings, holding the chain with her two hands. She stared at the ground and swayed it softly.
"Naze?…"
Suddenly, one of the swings began to swing hard. She turned and glanced to it. Swinging back and forth, a girl slowly appeared like a ghost, standing on it.
"Sakura…" Saino said.
Continued swinging it, the eight year old ebony haired girl turned to her and gave a cute smile.
She said in a cute voice, "Konnichiwa, Saino!"
Saino smiled a little but easily faded. She bowed down her head, her hair covering her eyes.
"Are??? Saino? Daijoubu desu ka?" she asked.
"Sakura, why do you want to tell him my real identity?…"
Sakura's face saddened, "You don't like it?…"
"… It's because I know he's the one who would understand you."
Saino suddenly turned to her and yelled at her, "UNDERSTAND ME?!? He called me by the name that I hardly forget!?…"
"… And I think YOU're the one who showed him, using his dream."
Sakura explained, tears started to brim her eyes, "Saino, all I ever wanted was for you not to feel alone. I wanted you to know what it feels being loved…"
"IIE!?! I don't want it anymore!?! I think it won't do good to me nor to anyone since…"
"… I'm a demon!?!" she continued. "And besides, A demon doesn't feel love so what's the use!?!"
"Don't feel love, you say?" she wanted to assure, as if she knew something. "Then why did you blush when you often thought of him?…"
"Ehh???" her cheeks turned pink.
"… Why did your heart beat differently when you thought of him or sometimes being with him?…"
"I don't know…" her cheeks turned red.
"… And above all, you attempted to kiss him while he was sleeping," she said. "Sleeping Beauty…"
She turned completely red, "Well, I…"
"You see!?! That's already love!!!" she said. "You're already in love with someone!?!…"
"… HI-SO-KA. Kurosaki Hisoka!?!" Sakura said cheerily, swaying her index fingers back and forth. "Also, I think he feels the same…"
Saino was stunned. A breeze past by them. She went back to her normal status and felt a bit glad.
She smiled a little and said, "But I beg you, don't tell him all of it…"
"Of course!"
"Oh! And I still haven't forgot my promise," Saino said. "Don't worry! I'll try to look for information about your past!? And I think someone knows it…"
"Arigato, Saino. Demo…" she said. She gave a smile to her, "… my first priority is you. And I want you to be careful… I don't trust that doctor. But I believe he has something hiding under his sleeves…"
"That's what I also think."
Sakura jumped out of the swing and went in front of her.
"Saino, I'm sure you'll see everything from the darkness. You have a light with you… but it is still not that bright…" Sakura extended her arms in front of her.
Saino nodded and stood. She bent a little and hugged her. Sakura slowly vanished.
Before vanishing, she said, "Oh, before I forget, you're eyes are too scary that really look like a demon. Will you…?"
Saino shook and smiled, "He might have noticed it already but… Not yet, Sakura… Not yet…"
"Ok…" Sakura completely disappeared.
Saino fell on her knees, still in her hugging position. Suddenly, rain poured heavily on her.
"Sakura… I know you're very excited to let Kurosaki-kun see you and knew you but…"
"… let's not rush, ok? We don't want to hurt him, right?…"
To be continued…
