Chapter 18
I called my house before we walked back and gave all of the servants the week off. By the time we arrived, we had the house to ourselves. Good thing too, it would have been difficult to explain a wounded mysterious theif in my front room.
I found some warm towels in the dryer and managed to keep the blood shed to a minimum. I took Chiaki's coat and shirt for washing. I had to change my own clothes, because he had leaned on me all the way home. I got the first aid kits from the upstairs and then the downstairs bathroom and also one from the kitchen.
"I think that's enough." Chiaki had already started rolling gauze around his middle. I blushed, looking at his bare skin. That smooth and firm body was even better than in my dream.
His muscles pulsed and moved as he threaded the white spool around him. I wanted to touch his back and wrap my arms around him. Heat raced to my face and I shook my head. It's probably better if I don't think such things, since I can't be sure of Chiaki's feelings. I went to a chair far away from him.
This man before me was the legendary Kaitou Sinbad and if I wasn't mistaken...he liked me, didn't he? My self-doubt kicked into over time as I sat down. He's like a hero and the hero is supposed to get the girl, not some cowardly class president. Heck, I'm not even cut out to be a loyal side-kick.
"Um." The golden eyed man of my dreams pursed his lips.
Oh no! Was I staring? I made him feel uncomfortable, didn't I? Stupid! He probably came home with me to allow me a chance to apologize, then he'd let me down easy. If that's the case...I'm glad we are alone...I wouldn't want to be embarrassed, especially not in front of Access. I hope we can still be friends.
"Could you help me?" Chiaki pointed. He had wrapped the majority of the gauze around him, but needed help to secure it behind his back.
"Oh," Not what I expected, thank goodness. But..."Sure." I came over and sat down behind him. I felt stiff. And with the hesitant motors of my rusting brain, I had some how lost every lesson I had ever had on First Aid. I didn't know what to do or how to do it. He handed me the end of the gauze strip.
"Go ahead." The blue haired teen faced front and crossed his arms in his lap.
"Right," I muttered. I had the thin woven strip and was looking for something to tie it to. "right." I repeated, with even less confidence, if that was possible.
"Here." Chiaki must have noticed my hesitantion. He slipped his fingers in the white mesh and found the beginning strand. "Tie it to this."
"Okay." I obeyed, feeling a little incompetent and more than a little embarrassed. I took the two strands and pulled them together. I think I pulled too hard, because Chiaki sucked in breath through his teeth.
"I'm sorry." I apologized immediately. I was suppossed to be helping, darn it. I bit the inside of my cheek and realized the two strands were too far apart to tie. What now?
"You okay back there?" He glanced over his shoulder.
"No problem." Yamato do something! I yelled at myself. I know. It occured to me. I'll just have to take off one string in order to tie it further down on the strand. No problem. But...to do that, I'd have to... I bit my lip.
"Yamato?"
"Cho, Chotto..." I stuttered, nervous as all get out. I causiously reached my hand under his arm and around his middle. He didn't stop me, this was encouraging. I grabbed the strand with my other hand and quickly tied the knot. I touched some sweat on my forehead with the back of my hand as I sighed with relief. "Done."
"Thanks." Chiaki turned to look at me with those stunning gold eyes.
"Anytime." I scratched my hot cheek and focused on my other hand over my lap.
I glanced up a few times in the silence that followed. He slipped on a spare shirt I had. It just barely fit him so Chiaki decided not to button it I guess. Then he leaned back on the couch and just looked at me.
I turned back to my hand. I couldn't figure out what he was trying to do, but I was starting to feel the old familiar butterflies. I looked up when I heard him sigh.
"I guess you're wondering why I'm still here." Chiaki confronted the situation. "I bet you have a lot of questions. I've got a few of my own, acctually." the blue haired teen slipped an arm around the back of the couch. If I were sitting back, it would be around my shoulders. "I wanted to give us a chance to talk."
"I appreciate that." I told him, fidgeting a little. I was still feeling stiff and unsure.
"A lot has happened these past few days." Golden eyes were ever focused on me as he leaned forward. "Something I want, no, that I have to know..." Chiaki's hand, slightly larger and much stronger, took hold of mine. I didn't object simply for the fact that I had no clue what he was going to do. "Yamato."
I wonder if he noticed, I melt every time he says my name. My heart skipped a beat when Chiaki drew my arm to his opposite shoulder. I let my body twist so my weight rocked on my hip. His other arm snuck behind my back and tugged the rest of me against the couch with him. I couldn't breath, the distance between us had disappeared.
Chiaki's face was so close, his breath tickled my lips. His gold eyes looked deep into mine. His fingers lingered on my hand and glided over my sleeve. Chiaki's gaze drifted down to my lips, before tenderly caressing my cheek.
My heart was going a mile a minute. My breathing, was I breathing? Oh, yeah, it was quickened. I couldn't think, I wasn't sure how to anymore. How did Chiaki have this kind of power over me? It's not fair!
My breathing changed as his face leaned closer. I closed my eyes. Not again...I begged deep inside of me. If this isn't a dream, or even if it is...My heart began to ache. No matter what...Don't run away again. Our lips touched. The feeling was light and soft, like a flower brushing over my mouth.
I hesitated. Does he know what he's doing to me? But the mearest thought of not kissing him made me...sick. I'd go for it! I opened my mouth just slightly, wanting more of that passion from our first kiss. Except... I moaned.
This kiss was deeper, warm and tender. I wrapped my free arm around his neck as our tongues entertained one another. I was in that quite heaven that can only be found in a precious moment between two people. I am in love. I was able to admit this to myself, finally.
After several moments, it seemed that we couldn't stop kissing each other. Everytime our mouths parted we'd take a breath, look at each other and just start kissing again. This countinued for...I don't know how long. Does that really matter? His hands started to slide under my shirt and I gave a different moan.
Unfortunately good things can't last forever. And so, as it was Chiaki who initiated it, he stopped it almost as abruptly. The blue haired teen gently pushed me away and used his arms and legs to push himself to the other side of the couch.
"I'm sorry." Chiaki covered his face and held out a preventative hand. Did I do something wrong? My heart sank to the pit of my stomach. No, I didn't. It's your fault, Chiaki, you started it! "If I don't stop..." Golden eyes looked away as he took a few calming breaths. "I won't want to stop."
"What do you mean?" I hesitated to ask, remembering his wandering hands. But I had to be sure he was kissing me, because he liked me.
"Let's just say," he considered his words. "I could kiss you all night." Those golden pools left it up to my imagination. I had no idea I was such a pervert. I blushed horribly from my naughty thoughts.
"Then you do...I mean you..." Even though my lips were still wet from the kiss, I couldn't bring my self to be so forward as to ask him if he loved me.
"I was worried, when I found out you were possessed." he rubbed his blue hair and chuckled. "I guess I don't have to worry."
"Chiaki." I whispered his name. He was worried to? Some how hearing this was more comforting than if he had pretended to be untouchable.
We sat and talked for hours after word. He asked me some questions about knowing Access and apperently it's unusual to be able to see angels. I wasn't sure what to do about that. Chiaki shrugged and told me not to worry about it.
I told him about catching Access and putting him in a bird cage and Chiaki burst out laughing. I think he laughed a little too much. I frowned. I already felt guilty about it, now I just felt down right stupid. I let him laugh though, I owed him that for all the trouble I'd caused.
I felt really good. Chiaki wasn't ignoring me anymore and he even kissed me again. Quite passionately, I might add. Tonight started out so terrible, but Chiaki...I sighed to myself. Chiaki always had a way of turning around even the worst situation.
