Sweet...

Fruity...
Touga's lips tasted like a delicious drink...
Tina stumbled into her dorm, turned off the light, and flopped on her newly-made bed, sighing at the delight of a bed and also to get away from Touga-
And Annei.
Tina subconciously raised her fingers to her lips, traced them lightly, wondering why on Earth Annei kissed her in the greenhouse. A flash in the sunlight made the blonde glance down at her right hand, seeing the signat-rose ring, the pink outlining of it embedding into Tina's mind. ' I saw the colors pink and red when I was mad at Touga... the pink seemed so familiar...' Sighing once more, Tina rolled over on her back and stared at the ceiling, arms crossed behind her back. An empty-sort of feeling spread out through her stomach, up to her chest. " Longing." That what was bothering her. Her boyfriend, Elijha, back home... she hadn't talked to him in three days. Getting up, Tina reached over to her princess phone and dialed in his number, eagerly awaiting to hear his deep, warm voice. The though made shivers go up and down her back.
" This number you just dialed does not exists."
" Nani?," Tina said bluntly in the reciever, eyes wide.
+*+*+*
The past week went by rather smoothly for Tina. Wabaka had become dearly close to her as well as Miki. But she had a feeling that his twin sister, Kouze, didn't approve of this. The twin would glare at Tina when she met up with Miki in the hall on Thrusday and said hello. Her magenta-covered lips pulled back in a thin-lipped smile and she then stalked off, aqua-green skirt swaying angrily. Tina blinked. " What's with her?," she asked aloud, eyes wide. Miki clamped a hand over his forehead and rubbed it, eyes closed. " Jealously. That's what happens when you have a sister." Tina laughed gently and hugged him 'round the shoulders. " Cheer up, Miki-kun. Come on- music is starting." The two walked up to the E-15 level of the school to the large choral room. A sight greeted her-
Touga and Nanami.
Tina pursed her lips slightly and she glared at the red-haired man with anger and annoyance. Did he follow every new girl around so he could sleep with her?!! He smiled charmingly at her and winked secretly. Tina flushed a bright pink and walked away from him. Nanami simply sneered at the girl and toss back her own blonde locks, violet eyes in virulent slits as she embraced her brother's left arm. The music teacher, Utsuma-sensei, clapped his hands and all the students raced to the risers in their places- Soprano Ones on top, Two on the middle, Alto on the last riser near the left, Tenor in the middle, and Bass on the right. Tina was Soprano One with Nanami, which aggrivated her. Today was try-outs for Honour Choir and Tina was sure that she would make it. A knock interuppted her thoughts and someone stepped into the room. Annei.
The girl smiled and waved at Tina. The blonde waved back, smiling back. Nanami noticed this and smirked. " Waving at her, are you? I'd be careful... Kyouchi-san is very overprotective of the things he owns." Tina snapped her head at Nanami, aqua eyes gleaming. " Things? Like...?" " Uh-huh... his 'play-thing', his 'slut.' " Tina clenched her hands in fists and narrowed her eyes. " Watch what you say, ' Baby Sister.' Remember, Touga can't protect 'you' forever."
Annei squeezed her way into the Second Sopranos and started talking lowly to Tina. " I'm trying out, as well. Good luck!," she whispered, green eyes twinkling. " You too!," Tina said, giving her thumbs-up. Utsuma-sensei took her palce up front, her hazel gaze on everone. " Now, I want each of you to do your very best! We will go on competition in Feburary so we've got plenty of time until then, but we must learn these songs ' Ave Maria' and ' The Garden of Music.' Now, for my first persons to tryout..."
The list went on with Annei and Miki first until Tina realized that she and Touga were left. A girl trio had just finished their piece, which left Utsuma-sensei sniffling. " Alright, next and last we have... aha, Touga-san and Tina. Would you two please come down?" Tina held her chin up a bit high and kept her gaze on the teacher, not Touga. " Tina, I will ask you to sing whatever you want to first. If Touga knows it, he will join in on his pitch, understand? If he does not know the song, he will sing a solo for me. You may start, Miss Tillings."
Silence stretched into the room as Tina searched for a song... any song!!! None popped up in her head that Ustuma-sensei would approve. Biting on her bottom lip, Tina wracked through her brain.
' This rose is our destiny...'
" Michibikare."
" Louder, Miss Tillings."
Tina stared into space, her eyes glazed over somewhat as the hauntingly tune raced through her mind:
" Futari wa ima
mou ichido deau
donna toki mo...
ano yakusoku wasurenaide
yatto! koko made kita yo..."
Touga's eyes did the same things as his rich, tenor tone swept around Tina's lighter soprano, melding the song together perfectly as they both sung:
" Toki ni ai wa tsuyoku
hito no kokoro kizutsuke mo suru keredo Ah...
yume wo atae yuuki no naka ni
itsumo hikari kagayaite
Ai wa tsuyoku
hito no kokoro ugokashite yuku dakara Ah...
futari de iru kitto sekai wo
kaeru tame ni soshite subete wa
hitotsu no chikara ni... naru..."
Annei, perfect calm and relaxed, simply smiled in her row as her friend finished the song. Tina then shook her head slightly, her eyes clearing from singing the song. Touga just blinked once and glanced down at the confused and bedazzled Tina, who stared at the ground, as if trying to remember something. Only two things came to mind: water and stars. Turning to Annei, she saw her smiling down at her. ' What did you do to me?'
+*+*+*
Walking outside to go to baseball practice, holding her briefcase over her shoulder, Tina then stopped to gaze at a peculiar, but beautiful sight of Ohtori-domo laying on the hood of his red car, simply gleaming in the sunlight. His hair was still pulled back, but his shirt was left opened, revealing a strong, brown chest that made Tina blush and examine the fine man still. " You stare so, Tina... interested?"
The blonde shrieked and tried to hide, but his fierce, playful gaze held her down. ' Damn!!! How did he know?!!' Tina thought to herself as Ohtori-domo sat up, arching his back to the glorious sky, graceful as a Burmese black cat. He smiled at her and brought up his right leg to his chest and rested his right arm upon it, still looking at his student. Tina bowed and said quickly, " Gomen nasi, Ohtori-domo!!! I didn't mean to-!"
" You just love to apologize to everyone, don't you?"
"Nani?"
" You're so... poliet."
Tina blinked then let out a laugh. " Whoever told you that!?! Who did must've been crazy!" Ohtori-domo simply continued to smile and stare, making Tina feel uncomfortable. " Well... I... better go now... to practice..." The blonde turned to leave, but a sudden grasp on her arm made her turn around in surprisment. There, holding her arm was Ohtori-domo, his emerald eyes on her aqua ones. " Doushita?," she asked softly, trembling underneath that gaze and at his strength. " Like Touga had said- you intrige me. You seem very mysterious, but alighting to the mind," the chairman said lowly, running a hand over her left cheek gently, massaging the blushing flesh. " Aha... yamero... douzo?," murmured the blonde, feeling hot and jittery at his touch. The wind swept back their hair, rose petals of white and red mixing in. ' This has to be a dream...,' Tina thought to herself.
She was caught up in another kiss by the chairman, more fluidly and hotly. The wind pushed harder and Tina then opened her eyes to a bright blue sky, the view from the ground. Her arms were spread out along with a skirt. Looking down, she saw herself in a pale yellow gown with green lining and white, high-heeled shoes. She was in a green field with bright-eyes susans and daisies, instead of the common rose at the academy. Tina sat up and felt a pressure of slight weight on her head. Raising a hand, she felt a crown sitting on her blonde head. " Where am I?," she asked to herself, glancing at her princess gear, including the wrist cuffs and gold, plate shoulder rests with dark blue strands falling from the ends. Tina stood and started to admire the field until she felt a presence near her. Looking up, she sees a tall man, standing with the sun behind him like a bright flower, its rays splashing everywhere.
The light blinded Tina, making her raise her arms to cover her face...
+*+*+*
Sweet...
Tangy...
Fruity...
' That smells familiar... aha, charondy, finest red wine ever made... Touga...' Tina opened her eyes, to find her head in someone's lap, resting comfortably in the warm area. Lifting her eyes, she saw Ohtori-domo drinking the liquid in a crystal wine glass. " Nani... where am I?," she asked again, rubbing her forehead and then her eyes tiredly. " In my private office. My poor dear... you fainted right then and there this afternoon... I excused you from your classes so you could rest. Enjoyed your dream?," he asked kindly, running a hand through her messy locks. " How did...?" Tina then sat up, slowly, and stood, swaying a bit. " I've gotta go back to my dorm," she murmured, trying to walk to the door. Tina stumbled but Ohtori-domo caught her from behind. " Whoa, there... you're not rested well enough..." Tina tilted her head back and stared into the man's eyes, realizing how much they resembled Annei's.
Ohtori-domo leaned down and captured her lips, caressing the tender flesh with his tongue. Tine sighed happily and allowed him in, the muscle teasingly wrapping around hers, dueling. ' How can I get so lucky in only nine days?' The charondy mixed with his saliva well, making Tina want more from his mouth. " Impatient, aren't we?," he chuckled, breaking their wonder, breath-taking kiss.
Tina giggled some and followed Ohtori-domo to the couch he was sitting on and handed her a glass of the wine. " I've been meaning to ask... is it alright for me to call you by your first name?," she asked shyly, sipping slowly the tangy liquid. " Of course... just not around the other students."
" Domo arigatou! Demo, I really have to go now," Tina said lightly, placing down the fine glass. " Sleep well, my princess." The man kissed her lightly on the lips once more and escorted her out of the office to the main hallway to the dorms. Tina smiled to herself and walked to her door, unlocking it-
but it was already unlocked!
Narrowing her eyes, Tina rushed in, ready to fight whomever was in her room. " Who's there?!," she yelled. A light giggle from her bath made Tina's chest grow tight and her blood run cold. Who was it? Tina opened the door, revealing candles everywhere in her bath, and a bubbled-covered girl with meduim skin and wet, curling maroon hair and large, violet eyes that sparkled with mischief. Tina gaped at her, facing paling. " Wh-who... wha... WHO ARE YOU AND WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE?!?!!," she shouted, gripping the doorframe, knuckles turning ash-white from her grip. The girl in the water simply giggled lightly. " Shizumari tamae," she said soflty and stood, bubbles and water dripping from her slim form, candle-light shinning on her skin like diamonds and pearls. She stared at the blonde with wet, curling bangs in her luxurious amythest orbs. " Kore de yoi ka?" " What do you mean, ' Is this enough?!!' SARE!," Tina screeched, pointing to her mysterious guest then to outside.
" Shizumari. Watashi no name wa Shiroi desu. I am very honored to finally meet you, Tillings-sama," the girl said, fluttering her eyelashes lazily. Tina swallowed some and shook her head in disgust, reaching for a towel and handing it to Shiroi. " I already know about you."
" Honto ka?"
" Hai. You used to go out with Ruka, ne?"
" Hai."
" And then Arigasawa-sempai."
" Oh."
Shiroi continued to stare at Tina, drying her arms, neck, and partially her breasts, making Tina blush and look away. " Where are your clothes?" " My uniform is on your bed." The girl walked outside to her messed-up bed where the Ohtori uniform laid neatly. Tina picked them up and turned, meeting a nude Shiroi once more. " Douzo... put these on," she insisted urgently, thrusting the articles in her arms. " You know... we are going to meet once more."
" I know."
The two girls stared at each other and Shiroi simply gave her a dazziling smile and changed. Tina then caught a whiff of something lingering on Shiroi like a damp, moist blanket.
Sweet...
Tangy...
Fruity...
Akio's red wine.
What was going on here? Why was Shiroi bathing in her tub?
Finished! I think this my favourite chapter- I could be wrong. ^^ Losta Akio in this one, though! * squeals happily* And Touga! Review, minna!
