The First Snow Chapter V-A Very Strange Yuki, a Lovestruck Princess, and a Suspicious Sergeant
Yukimi put her head back as the warm water caressed her scalp and hair. She brought her head back up and let the water drip down her back, savoring the warmth and comfort. Tears rolled down her ivory cheeks and dribbled into her bathwater, mingling with the warm water.
She splashed water on her face, wiping away the salty water with the soothing warmth. She got out of the tub and dried herself, pulling on a pale green inner kimono.
Somebody knocked.
She grabbed an outer kimono, an almost see-through, silky one with metallic green and gold leaves printed on it (3-d like, you know, the kind that you can feel the outlines when you run your hand over it). She opened the door while pulling a brush through her hair, and almost dropped her brush as she saw who it was.
"Yuki. We have to talk." Kel said, as she pulled herself into Yuki's room and closed the door shut.
+~+~+~+~+
Dom pulled himself into the dining hall and grabbed a tray laden with food. He sat down on a table and began to eat, thinking about the conversation that he and Kel had just had.
She yelled at me, he thought. Does.. Does that mean she doesn't love me? Hasn't she noticed my affection toward her already? Oh Gods.. What am I going to do, if Kel doesn't love me? If.. If Kel doesn't love me.. He furiously blinked back tears. What a shame it would be, to break out crying in front of his men and all the pages, squires, and knights.
A woman came and sat across from Dom, also with a tray of food. Dom didn't notice.
She coughed. He didn't notice.
"Uh.. Sergeant Domitan?" She asked shyly, blushing a deep scarlet.
He jolted awake from his daydream (Don't ask what he dreamed about. It's X-Rated.) and glanced at the woman. True, she was beautiful, but he kept thinking of Kel's hazel eyes, her reddish hair, her lightly freckled skin.
Yet something was oddly familiar about this lady. Straight black hair, blue eyes.. Something was familiar.
He realized who it was just in the nick of time. He bowed as low as the table allowed him to. "Your Majesty. I am most honored to meet you." He returned to his soup, thinking about how Kel's mouth made little twitches when she was trying not to laugh. He realized that he was hopelessly in love with her and hadn't even realized it yet.
Kalasin of Conte was frantic. She'd been trying to get this man's attention for YEARS without any success. Maybe it was because she was a princess. Maybe it was because she never screwed up enough courage to talk to him, and always hid whenever he showed up.
Maybe it was because he was with that.. That lady knight all the time.
Maybe, if I had become a lady knight, he might have loved me, too. This thought struck her mind like a stone in a water, and slowly sunk down into her brain.
Dom excused himself and walked out.
Kalasin stood up and sat down again, her face evident of her disappointment. After some thinking, she stood up and began to run toward Dom's quarters.
+~+~+~+~+
"NO." Yuki said. Her legs wobbled, and she sat down on her bed.
Kel sat down next to her. She wrapped a comforting arm around Yuki's shoulders. "I know, Yuki. I know you didn't do it. I'll vouch for you-I will no matter what people think. Truth is truth, Yuki. You're innocent."
Yuki tried to fight back tears. How will she be able to tell the REAL truth to a friend who was trusting her this much? How will she live, when Kel would be crying because of her broken trust?
"Kel, leave me for a while, please." Yuki said, burying her head in her hands. (A/N hehe I almost said hand in her heads)
Kel nodded understandingly, gave Yuki a quick squeeze, and went out of her room.
+~+~+~+~+
Dom came back inside his room and sat down at his desk. He opened the book that Kel had given him for his midwinter present. THE HISTORY OF THE YAMANI ISLANDS was printed with silver in a red velvet book. He opened the book and fingered what Kel had written inside.
My most *favorite* sergeant, If you're planning to flirt with Yamani girls, I advise you to learn a bit about the Islands. Have a wonderful Midwinter. Hugs and Kisses, Kel
He lifted the book against his cheek and rubbed it against the book, breathing in the scent of Kel. Actually, there wasn't much scent of Kel, but he breathed it in anyway.
He went to his door and opened it when a knock came. He stood surprised at the sight of the Princess. She pushed him inside and closed the door.
"If you're planning to use my room, Your Majesty, you are most certainly welcome, but I'll excuse myself." Dom said coldly.
"Sergeant, I came to tell you something that I've been hiding ever since I first saw you." Kalasin's voice was full of hope and desire.
Dom's mind was swirling. Uh-oh. He thought. Something is going VERY wrong.
"I *must* excuse myself, Majesty."
"Domitan, but I love you so much, and I've been trying to tell you for so long a time!" Kalasin cried, wringing her hands. She knelt on the floor and took Dom's callused hands with her smooth, white ones.
Dom pulled away.
"I must be going, your Majesty. I'm sure Sir Raoul is looking for me right this moment, and I should report to him." His voice was icy.
Kalasin watched Dom walk away.
"Don't forget, Sergeant! I'll still love you! I don't care if you love another lady, I want you, and I'll have you!" She called after him.
+~+~+~+~+
A/N I was planning on writing a longer one.. Sorry. Reviews please, and don't you think I'm *cough* increasing *cough* in my ability to link Kel and Dom?
Oh my gods! I forgot to put Neal in this one! *wails* how COULD I?
Btw, from next time, look for me as Salianne of Malsbolle. HAHA, MALSBOLLE!! I don't know anyone by malsbolle yet. so that's why I'm doing it. If there is somebody already, please talk to me. If they don't mind, I'd like to share dom.. But if they mind, I'll change my name, never fear!!!
