Finally Hao released me. I just stared at him in disbelief.
Hao had just kissed me. Hao had just kissed me.
I put my fingers to my lips and then continued to stare at him in silence.
Then I spoke. "Ha—Hao." I stuttered, but that's as far as I got.
Hao winked at me and gave me a mischievous side smile.
"So, are you going to admit it now? Or do you want to kiss again?" I tilted my head to one side.
"Admit what exactly?" Hao shook his head.
"You are inferior. That you have developed an attraction to me. I might even go as far to say you even care for me."
Hao stood tall and confident looking.
Me? I was wondering whether to cry from embarrassment or whack him upside the head.
"Wh-why I mean what makes you say erm…that?" Hao sighed, probably thinking I was pretty empty in the head.
"Never mind, I must be mistaken." Hao looked almost a little sad and was ready to turn and leave.
Wait…um…why do I feel all weird.
No! HAO DON'T LEAVE ME! And without too much thinking, I ran and almost knocked Hao down by hugging him.
Hao looked down at me, sort of surprised, in this sort of lovesick happy way. Then he snapped back into character.
Hao gave an evil chuckle, but in a cute way.
"Admit it." He said laughing. I released him from my embrace and looked straight into his warm chocolate brown eyes.
"Fiiiiine. Hao Asakura, I, Molly, have developed an attraction to you. I might even go as far to say I even care for you. A lot." I laughed a bit and poked him.
I have become quite bold, I guess it's easier to when you know he won't burn you.
Hao and I shared a smile before he took my face in his and kissed me again.
Ah, sheer joy. I did not just write that…
Hao realized it was getting late. "Don't want my brother to think I've killed you."
I laughed a little weakly at that. We mounted Spirit Of Fire's back and off we flew back to Yoh's house.
I sneaked back into mine and Aiko's room. It really WAS late, but hopefully no one was awake.
"Molly! Your alive!" Aiko gave me a hug. I groaned. So much for no one being awake.
"Hey Aik-" Aiko didn't let me say too much though.
"YOU HAD BETTER TELL ME EVERYTHING HAO SAID!" I winced.
"Aiko- people are trying to sleep." Aiko giggled.
"Sorry mom." She said rolling her eyes. I stuck my tongue out at her but following her into the room, told her of all the days/nights events.
Afterwards Aiko glared hard at me with her acorn brown eyes.
"Molly, you got together with Hao? I didn't even see that one coming. I mean…really…"
I blushed and looked at the nicely carpeted floor. Wow, a piece of lint! How extraordinary!
"But enough, we're supposed to be getting the couples together! All we've done is gotten Yoh and Anna to sit closer together and HoroHoro and Tamao to make food together! That's just sad!"
I nodded sadly. 'Sorry Hao, duty calls.'
Aiko and I stayed up the rest of the night, making our next plan. This time for a new couple.
