Chapter 8
Aoshi was staring into Jade's eyes as she told him about Randy.
"Erm, he was my old neighbour. Aki introduced him to me, and we became very good friends...
But when i start school, i met Aaron and Randy and I sort of drifted away. Randy hates Aaron
because of that. I always thought it is because he thinks that we are no longer best friends,
little did i know that Randy is in love with me..."
Aoshi's raised his eyebrows a little but continued to probe her.
"So Jade, since this Randy guy is in love with you, why did he want to hurt you?"
"Well... i rejected him, rather harshly and he has been stalking me ever since. Normally he would
just corner me and ask me to be his girlfriend.. i don't know what happened to him today.."
"I see.-"
Jade suddenly cut in before Aoshi could continue what he was saying.
"Sensei.. I just want to say thank you, for helping me."
"It was nothing, rest well. You can stay here for the night, i've already asked your god-father
for permission."
"Thanks."
================================
Aoshi sat silently in his living room, listening to Jade's evenly breathing from his bedroom.
He felt a pang of sadness yet happiness. He was sad that Jade might be in love with Aaron but yet,
he was happy that Jade doesn't seem to hate him anymore.
"Thanks" She had said.
Aoshi cheered silently at his small victory but stopped when he heard a faint sound coming from
the bedroom.
RUshing in as quick as lightning, he realised that Jade was talking in her sleep.
"Aoshi-sama, come catch me!"
"Aoshi-sama, you wont' ever leave me right?"
"Hannya kun, where is Aoshi-sama?"
Jade was tossing and turning and sleep-talking at the same time.
Aoshi watched on, amazed.
"Jiya, no matter what you have to say, i'm going to find Aoshi-sama!"
"Jiya, look at that strange man talking about another world.."
Jade's voice was getting louder now.
"Who are you? Where am i?WHO AM I?WHO AM I?"
Jade was shouting so loudly now that Aoshi rushed over and hugged her tightly. Jade's breathing
was uneven and she was still shouting.
After several minutes, Jade still could not calm down and Aoshi suddenly thought of a way to calm her.
It was something that he would always use to calm Misao when she was young.
Cradling Jade gently, he placed her on his lap and rocked her.
"SHhh, my misao, everything's all right now, your Aoshi-sama's here.."
Minutes passed and Jade calmed down eventually, as though knowing that she is being protected now.
She lay her head down on Aoshi's chest, her mumblings decreasing as she drifted off to sleep.
Aoshi smiled as he tightened his embrace around Jade, savouring the moment, where he could feel
that familiar warmth, that familiar form and the familiar closeness....
====================================
Jade opened her eyes slowly and found herself looking straight into Aoshi's eyes.
"Sensei!" Jade exclaimed, blushing furiously.
Aoshi, startled, put her on the ground slowly and said,
"I heard you talking in your sleep last night, and you were shouting by the time i was here, so
i tried to calm you.."
"Oh..Aki always tell me that i made a lot of noise when sleeping. Very sorry if i have affected your
sleep, Sensei."
"It's okay, did you know what were you talking about in your sleep?"
"Not really, everything's such a blur. I just remembered seeing a pair of blue eyes, like yours,
Sensei, and i also saw these beautiful throwing knives, just like the ones Aki gave me..."
"Aki gave you knives?"
"Well, he saw me eyeing it not long ago, and he bought it for me."
"Oh."
Aoshi's POV
Knives? Are they KUNAIS?
IS she starting to remember?
Why doesn't she remember what she said in her sleep?
Stop it Aoshi.
You need to be patient, remember?
But she's falling for that Aaron guy..
Damn, what the hell are you thinking Aoshi?
