Chapter 3

Dream

"Selena...," Leon said. There, in his eyes, stood a tall, slender, blond-haired, blue-eyed woman.

"Leon," Selena said, with a voice filled with love and longing. Leon tried to reach out to her, but felt as though he was being pulled down. "Selena!! Selena!!!" Leon yelled.

"Leon...Leon...Leon!!!"

End Dream

"Leon...Leon! Wake up," Hikari said, softly shaking Leon. She was awakened by murmerings coming from Leon.

'His body is so cold and he's violently shaking,' Hikari thought.

"SELENA!!!!" was a reponse from Leon.

'Selena, who is she? Is she someone close to...Leon,' Hikari thought as she felt a pain in her chest. In her mind, she wanted to know who this girl was. Dued to the current situation Leon was in, it was not the time.

"Leon!!!" Hikari yelled. That tone of voice shocked Leon back to reality.

"Huh? Hikari," Leon said. His face was paled and covered with a thick layer of sweat on his skin. All Hikari could do at this point was latch onto his firm body and cry into chest, clinging to him like her life was depended on it.

'Oh Hikari...I'm so sorry. It must be my fault for making you cry,' Leon thought, frowning at this beauty, on his chest, crying on him at this very moment.

"Hikari," he said, resting his hands on Hikari's cheeks and slowly raised her head up. Hikari could only stare at him, with shed tears running down her cheeks. Leon ran his thumbs on her cheeks, wiping her tears off.

"Hikari..., I...," Leon said, but was quickly silenced by Hikari's kiss. Hikari desperately needed Leon. After that scene at Takeru's dorm, she thought she was unwanted, someone that was only needed when someone is down, but after meeting Leon, everything changed. She found out that there was someone out there who loved her. She was just too focused on people around her, then explore this world of hers to find a special someone who was looking for another special someone. Leon showed nothing but kindness, compassion, and a sense of companionship. To her, it wasn't like being married to someone. It was a sense of a person that would always be there for her. A person who would let her cry on, lend a shoulder on, hold on, and maybe loved on. Leon was someone she didn't expected to find, but was completely grateful that she met such a great man in her life. All she could think about right now was Leon's delicious lips of his and want every single morsel of it. She wrapped her arms around Leon's neck and pushed herself into the kiss. All the thoughts and concerns in Leon's head were wuickly washed away by her sensational kiss. He simultaneously responded back to her by wrapping his arms around her waist and kissed her back with the same extreme passion he was feeling from her. Quickly, the brunette felt very uncomfortable in her current position. So, she moved out of the bed and sat on his lap, not moving away from their kiss. The brunette got so used to the sensation faster than she had ever with Taker. But, this was more passionate and more meaningful than any experience she had ever had. To Leon, this new sensation was incredibly similar to what he had experienced in the past.

Flashback

"Honey...wake up," Selena said. She was trying to pry her husband off the bed. He came home late this night because he had to close his nightclub. It was a hectic night, and he had to finish so much financal paperwork and interview a group of good potential employees to work in his club.

"Give me two more hours, angel," he mumbled.

"Common Leon, get up. I wanna go to that lingerie store that opened up at the corner of Murasaki Avenue," she said. "I wanna look beautiful for you. Hehe and maybe set your hormones on fire."

"No you don't. I love you just the way you are. Oh, I also liked that time when you were wearing nothing, but that blue apron. At first I thought you were my breakfest because you were just so fine that I just could eat you all up," Leon said, pulling a pillow over his face. "And in truth, you're already beautiful in my eyes."

"Aww...Leon...," Selena said, while blushing at Leon's comment and also removing the pillow away from his face. She leaned over him and slowly nibbled his bottom lip. Slowly deepening it into a long sensual kiss.

"MMMMMMMmmmmmm....... okay you won," Leon said.

"Yay!!!" Selena said with excitement. "Whoa!" She was quickly pulled down onto the bed and was pinned down by leon.

"I'd rather spend my day in bed with you," he said sucking on her neck and slowly sliding his hands to her sides. Ater a few innocentt pecks, he caught her in a deep kiss again.

"Mmmm...sounds great," Selena said, as she gave up to Leon's persuaion and started to kiss him back, while pulling the sheets over them.

End Flashback

Slowly, Hikari slid her hands down to the shirt of Leon's uniform and started to unbutton it. He snapped back to reality, after feeling the brunette's soft hands over his chest and pull backed from the kiss. Hikari frowned at his sudden withdrawal. Before he could rebutton his uniform, he was stopped by the brunette. Leon allowed her to trace the marks on his chest.

"What happened to you?" Hikari asked. Hikari had thought that Leon was just perfect. Immune to the real world, she recently faced. But, after seeing those marks on his chest, she wondered how this perfect angel could be broken. She slowly started to shed tears down her cheeks, but were removed once again by Leon. Leon knew that sometime soon, he would tell her his past. Yet, he thought that he would be able to tell her after going out for a while first. He guessed the time had come to tell Hikari about his past. "Hikari," he began. "It's time to tell you about my past because I think you have the right to know..." He sat back and slowly began his story. "It started several years ago. During the time when I was 16, I was married to my childhood friend, Selena. You probably say we were too young to get married, but we were happy being with each other and both our parents arranged our marriage. To us, we were very happy. We accelerated our knowledge in school and was able to go to college at a very young age. I even own a nightclub at age 17! Basically I made my money to support both me and my wife. She was usually a housewife." He slowly reached into his pockets, pulling out his wallet, and handed Hikari a picture. The picture contained a couple. A slender, blue-eyed girl and a brown-haired, chocolate-color eyed guy. The scene was at a park, with a magnificant fountain and a pristine, glittering lake in hth background. They were sharing an ice-cream. It showed them smudging ice-cream in each others faces in a playful, romantic way. Hikari smiled at the picture, but frown because in that picture, they had marriage rings on their fingers. She looked at Leon's hand and saw that his ring was still there.

'Is he telling me that I was a fling or that he...,' the brunette thought, but continued to listening to his story.

"We were happy together. We had a few problems, but we always managed to resolve them without much hassle. We loved each other very deeply. Then...That night..." Leon paused and felt Hikari holding his hands.

"You don't need to continue, if you don't want to. It's alrig...," Hikari said, but quickly interrupted by Leon.

It's okay. I need to tell you this. On November 11th, 1986, 11:29pm, my wife and I were enjoying a stroll in New York Central Park and were talking of having a child, because we had already thought about it long and hard. She and I wanted to make a family. Haha. It was crazy, but we both wanted a child. We were so in out own little world until we were attacked by robbers. They threatened for us to drop all of our money and one of the men held down my wife. They were hurting her and were about to rape her. I tried to stop them, but I got shot down. I recovered at Odaiba Memorial Hospital, but my wife never made it. She was brutally murdered and raped. I slowly dwell in darkness after mourning her death." Hikari lightened her grip on him, making sure she was there, and making him feel a bit for comfortable.

"I'm so sorry, Leon. I...," the brunette said, but was again, interrupted by Leon.

"It's alright. It's not your fault. Believe me. You did nothing of a sort to have this event caused. It was all just...an accident," Leon said. "Well, I became a cop, short after her death. I still had my nightclub. I work mostly as a cop nowaday, while a close relative of mine runs my club. I became a cop so that no one would experience the pain that I endured. I helped plenty of civilians that get in those types of incidents. I saved them from tossing their minds into deep sorrowful hopelessness. I did dated a few girls, but most of them wanted to start a relationship with me. I always refuse their offer or advice because I don't want to get anyone involved and might get hurt because of me. There was one girl I dated a few years back. Her name was Anna. Spiritual, lively, cheerful girl. I saved her from almost getting raped by her abusive husband. We talked and hung out. We, later, slowly became boyfriend and girlfriend. Soon after, she wanted to get married, but I wasn't ready enough to go through with that. I had my reasons. I felt like I would be betraying Selena if I did. You can understand that, right? There are some people who can't move on after such incidents and other perople can. I just thought that Anna would understand how i felt. She, in my opinion, got tired of waiting for me and left me for a better man. A man who she would able to get closer to than me. I swore to myself to never get close to someone again and be single forever. But, today, I learned that I broke my promise." Leon slowly raised his hand, cupping the brunette's soft cheek. "I know this is all sudden, but seeing you and being with you makes me feel different. Not in a bad way, mind you? It feels comforting and soothing. What this all means is that, I trust you. Even for 2 days, it feels like we have known each other for a long time." Hikari knew what he was getting at. She wanted to be with him so badly, but something in her couldn't let her say it.

"I know what you're thinking, because I would do the same thing if I was in your shoes. I'm not forcing you. I just want to tell you that I've...fallen in love with you. It's not your looks, but who you are. Just looking into your eyes, I can see the calmness and goodness of your soul. You are a good person. Seeing the way you act, I know you like to hide things from others because you don't want them to get hurt. You're kind and sincere. I love that part of you. the uniqueness of your being. Haha. I don't even know how to say this to you." Leon was hesitating, but was quickly reassured by Hikari's gentle touch on his chest. It was not erotic, but it was sensationally romantic. She softly traced his chest with her fingers. She leaned in and kissed his chest lovingly. She looked up to him with a loving smile. In her mind, she came into a conclusion.

'Yes,' Hikari thought. 'All I need is for him to say it. I am ready. It's not because I'm being superficial. It's because I actually fallen in love with this angel.'

'It's time,' Leon thought. He pulled Hikari closer to him and put his arm around her waist. It was now or never. "Hikari would you like to go out with me?" Leon asked. Hikari was so ecstatic and happy. "Ye...," Hikari said. Shocked, by her pause, her voice was gone.

'What? What happen to her voice?!' Hikari thought.

OH NO! Hikari lost her voice. What will happen now? All this coming soon...REVIEW!!!!
