Chapter 6...The final chapter. I'm kind of sad now that this is over...I just wanted to clear one thing up from the last chapter....Kai used Shuichi as a shoulder to cry on (he is her best friend remember) it was nothing aginst Tohma, it was just that she needed someone to talk to...okay so now on to the final chapter...!
The woman led Tohma through the airport till they came upon a small meeting room. She opened the door and motioned for Tohma to enter the room. He walked through the door to find a small wooden table with a matching chair next to it. The walls were white, like most the airport, which made the room look slightly larger then it really was.
" Have a seat Mr. Seguchi," the clerk said as she pointed in the direction of the chair. Tohma walked over to the chair and sat down. As the clerk closed the door he turned to ask her why he was here. Before he could say anything he heard a loud click as the clerk locked the door.
" What do you think you're doing?" Tohma started to panic realizing that he had been tricked into coming in here, " You don't really work here do you!"
" No, Mr. Seguchi I don't. I'm also not a blonde," the woman reached up and pulled a blonde wig off. Tohma watched as the young woman unclipped a barrette that had been holding up her long curly red hair. The woman then turned to face him.
" Kai!" he cried in excitement.
She held her finger up to her lips, " Shhhh, we don't want to give ourselves away now do we?"
She walked towards the chair where Tohma was sitting and sat down on his lap. She ran her hands through his hair and leaned in to kiss him. Tohma's body was in shock, he couldn't understand what was going on, but as soon as her lips touched his it didn't matter anymore. As his hands caressed her back he was filled with happiness. He drew back from her and ran his hand against her face. He stared up into her eyes and, no longer being able to hold his curiosity back any longer, asked her to explain.
" Well, I'd love to take credit for this little scheme," said Kai smiling, " but it was actually Mika that set this up."
" Mika?" inquired Tohma, his voice full of surprise.
" Uh-huh. It happened like this…"
---------------------------------------------------
" Miss Fukuhara?"
Kai turned to see an airport clerk holding her luggage ticket in her hand, " Yes, I'm Kai Fukuhara."
" There's a lady here who is refusing to let us put your luggage on the plane…" the clerk explained.
" WHAT?" cried Kai in dismay. If she didn't hurry she would miss her flight.
Kai followed the clerk to the baggage area to find a woman sitting on top of her luggage. The woman with long brown hair was dressed very stylishly and reminded her slightly of Yuki. She even had the same unimpressed facial expression he always had.
" So you're Kai hmm?" the woman said as she stood up from Kai's luggage, " I'm Mika Seguchi."
" It's a pleasure to meet you, Mrs. Seguchi, but I'm afraid I'm in a hurry. I really need to catch this plane."
' You won't be getting on the plane," Mika replied dryly. She turned towards the airport clerks, ' Do you mind?"
The clerks, fearful of the woman who had yelled at them earlier, left the two alone in the baggage area.
" What? Why not?" questioned Kai in surprise. She didn't want to stay here any longer; it wasn't fair to her or Tohma.
" Because Tohma needs you. My husband and I are getting a divorce. It's what's best for us. If you get on that plane, he'll only fly to New York to get you back."
" I…I don't understand…you want us to be together?" Kai asked skeptically.
" What I want is for Tohma to be happy. My brother told me that you are the one that Tohma's has been spending most of his time with lately, so it is clear to me that you are making him happy," Mika replied as she walked towards Kai till she was standing face to face with her, " So you better keep him happy understand? Because if I find out that you hurt him in anyway, I'll personally pay you a visit."
Kai nodded in fear. Shuichi had told her the Mika could be a very scary woman when she wanted to be and Kai was now witnessing this first hand. Mika held up her hands towards Kai, who noticed that she was holding a uniform like the ones the airport clerks wore and a key.
" What are these for?" Kai asked suspiciously.
" The key is for the meeting room here in the airport…Tohma should be coming soon to follow you to New York. I assume you can figure out the rest," Mika answered as she walked towards the door, " Don't forget what I said."
Kai watched Mika walk out of the baggage area.
--------------------------------------------------------
Tohma stared at Kai in shock. He couldn't believe that Mika had set this whole thing up, but he was more then thankful that she had. He stared into the eyes of the beautiful woman before him and smiled. He was happy for the first time in a long time, the woman that was sitting on his lap wanted to be with him as much as he wanted to be with her. He lifted her off his lap and sat her on the table.
He looked longingly into her eyes, " Kai…" his heart started to beat faster and faster, he had to tell her how he felt, " I love you."
She smiled up at him, ' I love you too, Tohma."
He leaned in and kissed her passionately reaching down to unbutton her uniform. She slid her hands up underneath his dress shirt…
" Excuse me, is there anyone here? This room is off limits too anyone but airport staff…" a voice came barking though the door as the person attempted to open the locked door.
Kai sighed, " We can't win."
" Let's go back to my place, I can guarantee we won't have any interruptions there," Tohma replied with a smile. He grabbed her hand and led her towards the door. As they walked out the door an older man was standing on the other side.
Kai looked at him and smiled, " Sorry boss but this man had a counterfeit boarding pass. I'll escort him out."
The airport clerk looked at the two in confusion as the man and woman walked away from him. Kai stopped just inside the airport exit, " I should return the uniform, I'll be right back."
Tohma grabbed her hand and looked her over, " I think it would be better if we kept it," he replied with an anxious smile. Kai's face flushed a bright pink as she followed Tohma out of the airport, ready to start their new lives together.
