Forbidden Love!
Chapter 5: Dark Secrets Revealed: Ren's P.O.V
I stood at the door way, hesitating to go into the kitchen.
'Here goes nothing…'
"We need to talk." I said, clutching the evidence on the piece of paper.
Yoh started to babble, but I told him to shut up.
I moved closer to Yoh, only inches apart from his face, then I pressed my lips against his.
To my surprise, Yoh quickly broke the kiss.
"I-I don't understand. I thought-"
"You thought what?" I said, knowing how he felt, "That I didn't feel the same way? That I would completely reject you and find you weird? …I thought that too when I realized my feelings towards you."
"But how? Why?" he asked.
"I've had these feeling inside of me for a long time, and your little poem proved that you wouldn't reject me."
'Why the hell am I spilling my guts out to him over a stupid poem, it doesn't prove anything… does it? Why do I have to feel this way? Why? Why must I care for him so much? Because he was there for you when you needed him most, because he's a good friend… and because you love him.' I told myself.
I locked his arms around Yoh and pulled him closer for another kiss, dropping the peace of paper onto the floor.
As out lips touched once more, Horo cleared his throat.
The kiss was broken and we both looked towards the door.
Horo, Lyserg, Ryu and Margaret were standing there.
"Oh… hi guys…" said Yoh.
"Just how long have you been standing there?" I demanded, upset by their presents.
"I-I don't understand. I thought-" Lyserg joked,
"You thought what? That I didn't feel the same way? That I would completely reject you and find you weird? …I thought that too when I realized my feelings towards you."
Anger rose up inside of me as my so called friends continued to mock me.
Horo got down on one knee, "Will you marry me and help me raise lots of little Tao's and Asakura's?"
"Oh, I thought you'd never ask!" said Lyserg, hugging Horo.
The two burst out laughing.
I tightened my fists and growled, ready to punch the lights out of them.
"Laugh if you will, but at least Yoh is a man who can admit his feelings." Said Ryu.
"Yeah, it's about time you guys told each other." Said Lyserg.
Yoh and I both looked puzzled.
"Yeah, it was getting kind of awkward the way you both kept avoiding each other." smiled Horo.
"But… how'd you know?" asked Yoh.
"It is quite easy to tell when a man is in love." Said Ryu.
I was surprised when Yoh pulled me closer and pressed his lips to his for the third time. Finally I had gotten in touch with my emotions, and had gotten what I wanted… Yoh.
