Forbidden Love!

Chapter 3: Unbreakable Stares- Ren's P.O.V

I had been walking for a while now, and I hadn't glanced at Yoh for some time, but that doesn't mean I wasn't thinking about him.

My mind was preoccupied on the scene at the pond.

'How could he have bought that stupid excuse? He didn't. He was just saying he did so that you wouldn't look stupid. But you still managed to do that anyway.' I thought as I walked through the wheat.

I looked up as Yoh and the others stopped. Then I heard Yoh say something about spending the night in the barn that was in front of me.

Once inside, I watched as Yoh moved away from me and the others. He'd found a spot in-between two hay stacks.

I stood there… alone…

'Why can't I stop thinking about you Yoh?'

I tried to force the thoughts out of my head about Yoh, but every time I did they just kept coming back.

'Yoh… You're so trusting and reliable… you'd always come through for anyone… you even came through for me when I needed you most…'

I looked over towards Yoh who seemed to be scribbling something on the peace of paper.

"Humph." I said happily.

I decided to walk over to Yoh and say hi, but as I got closer, he-

'He hasn't even noticed me! He's so preoccupied on that stupid peace of paper to notice!'

I got even closer, but still he didn't notice, his eyes still fixed on the paper.

I decided to walk round the hay stacks so that he was bound to see me.

When I got round the other end, Yoh had a frightened look on his face and was scanning the barn from left to right. I knew who he was looking for, as a smile spread across my face.

"Looking for me?" I asked a hint of cockiness in my tone.

Yoh spun round and his expression changed to relief.

'He's relived…? But why? Is it because I'm here? Because he knows were I am? No, I can't keep going on like this! I must know if his feelings match mine! I must know!'

I lowered my eyes and fixed them on the paper in Yoh's hand, but Yoh quickly shoved it into the hay next to him, and my eyes met his brown ones.

'Why is he being so defensive? It's just a piece of paper! Well if it's just a piece of paper, then why does Yoh think it's of some value to him?'

I suddenly heard Ryu insult me from a distance.

I wanted to move, I really did. I wanted to go pound Ryu until he could no longer walk… but that would mean leaving Yoh, and I couldn't do that.

Even when Horo and Lyserg started to call me, asking me why I was staring at Yoh I didn't care. I couldn't. All's I care about was Yoh.

I suddenly looked up as the barn door flew open and in walked an old woman.

'Looks like we finally get a home cooked meal.' I thought thankfully as I left the barn with the others.
