Memories
by: Miss Vampire
Chapter four: "Familiar faces"
"There are too many...."
I look at the pot in front of me again, the combination of blues, pinks and
whites and other several colors make me wish to be colour-blind all of a sudden.
Maybe the person who did this is colour-blind actually. That's the only
explanation of this...
"Too many hyacinths..." I pull off some of the big pink-ish flowers from the
base and look again.
"Too many white lilies..." I reach again, pulling some of the long green stems
out of the vase. I look again from another angle....
Arg!! Too many everything!!
I start pulling out several flowers with an angry haste. I glance the remaining
hyacinths on the vase, taking off all the pink ones, leaving the blu-ish ones
atop the smaller flowers. I pull as many daisies as I can with one hand, while
the other re-arranged the position of the red and white carnations, lilacs,
white lilies ... and no fern!! Makes it look like a piece of jungle than an
actual flower-arrangement! I pull off all the large leafs with no hesitation. Oh
yes, there's too much baby breath, too.
By the time I finish pulling out the colorful hinderance, I got a decent-looking
flower arrangement and enough buds in my right hand to make a nice little
bouquet. I can't help but smile at the well done job. The person from that
flower shop should be fired!
.. speaking of a flower shop....
"Sugoi!!!"
"Ken-sama ... Kakkoi!!!
"So beautiful!"
eh?
I turn around at the source of feminine voices, just in time to see a bunch of
maids approaching me with eager curiosity.
"Err... t-th-thanks.." Damn, I'm stuttering. I can't help it!! I feel nervous
all of a sudden and can't stop the stupid blush on my cheeks...
Ugh... I hate getting embarrassed so easy...
I wonder if I was like this before the accident, or am I now because I can't
remember? How was I before...? There's so many questions but there are no
answers...
If Kuroda-san...
"Ken-sama, dinner's ready!"
"Ah! er.. ha- hai" Stop stuttering you BAKA!!!
I follow one of the maids as we make our way to the dinner room. As I'm walking,
one maid takes the flowers in my hand, smiling broadly.
"That arrangement looks so beautiful Ken-sama! I never knew anyone that was good
with flowers!!" she says cheerfuly.
"Thanks, It's... nothing really" I say, feeling another blush sneaking its way
on my cheeks... Arg!! I really should see a doctor about this...
She notices my blush and starts giggling. This is awkward... oddly familiar but
awkward.
I sit down and look and the large table, lost in thoughts about what happened
just moments ago...
Why do I know so much about flowers? It's not something I'm aware of but rather
something that pops in my mind everytime I see a flower, something I take for
granted. It's not only the name of the flowers, but also the meaning and all the
possibles colors, types and combinations for all the arrangements.
Why would an ex-soccer player know so much about something so cheerful and
girlish like flowers?
Oh yeah! Kuroda-san told me about my past a few days ago.. though... he told me
so little and then he had to leave....
But that's better than nothing right?
Kuroda-san said that I was a J-league's soccer player, but I quit and then moved
in to live with him as his lover...
Damn it! Stupid blush!!!
But that was all... and now I'm more curious than before.
Demo... Kuroda-san is always so busy with work. And now he's leaving the house
even for weeks!!
I don't know what kind of job he runs. All I know is that he is the boss, and by
the looks of the house and the servants, that he has a lot of money...
"This is so boring..." I turn on the TV while falling on the living room's big
couch after the boring dinner. The word flower-shop still nagging at the back of
my head. I change the position of my body to the right side, trying to relieve
some of the pressure of my wounded leg.
It's been almost two months since I woke up in this house. The bandages around
my head are gone now but I guess my leg needs a few more days of treatment to
heal completely. Kuroda-san always makes sure to bring doctors and nurses to
take care of my wound. One day, while one of the nurses was searching for new
bandages, I took the chance to look closer at my injury...
And before I realized it, the word 'gunshot' was at the tip of my tongue.
When I asked Kuroda-san about my injuries, he told me I was involved in a car
accident, a stub of glass pierced my leg and I hit my head during the crash. But
that's not a glass-made wound but one of a gunshot , I'm sure about that. And
then there's another question.... Why do I know how a glass piercing wound and a
gunshot looks like?....
Weird thoughts....
Ohhh and the kiss.... that time I remember being too shocked to do anything. But
the feeling of a slipery tongue forcing its way inside my mouth completely freak
me out!!!
I think I scared Kuroda-san too when I push him off me. He almost fell off the
bed and looked at me with his eyes wide open. But the next second he was all
composed.
"Sorry, I didn't want to scare you," he said softly, his hand came to move some
of my bangs away from my eyes. The said hand make its way down to my shoulder. I
blush. The hand on my shoulder gave me a slight squeeze and I blush harder,
avoiding Kuroda-san's eyes. But I'm not blushing because of shyness or the
embarrassing situation. It's mostly because of the uncomfortable, awkward
feeling that tells me this is all wrong!
See, just more weird thoughts....
This is like a never ending turmoil and I'm tired of getting nowhere!! I feel so
empty it makes my heart ache every moment... I wish there'd be someone that
could help me....
Anyone....
...I sigh happily against your chest as a pair of strong arms take my waist in
a gentle but firm hold. I purr in delight as you bring our bodies closer. The
sound of your beating heart is so soothing and you smell so damn good.
I love you so...
"I love you" I say, loving the way your heart beats faster below my ear every
time I say those words. I brush my cheek on your chest just to make sure you are
real, that this is not an illusion.
I'm so glad it's not.
You take my chin in your right hand and make me look at your handsome face.
You smile.
I melt.
The happiness I see in your amethyst eyes is so strong that I get lost in them....
lost in you...
I lift my hand to pull apart those lovely red bangs away from your eyes, just to
get more of them....
More of you.
Your hand leaves my chin to rest and move to the back of my neck, holding me
gently. My hand leaves your beautiful red hair to brush my fingers over your
cheek. Your hand pulls me closer to you as I pull you closer to me.
And our lips met.
Softly... tenderly... heavenly... the way your lips brush against mines is so
perfect it makes me think that we were born to be like this, that we were meant
to be together...
Your tongue licks my lower lip, asking for permission for a more intimate touch.
I open my mouth instantly, eager to feel you as much as I can, pulling my arms
around your neck. Our tongues melt together with insistent touches in a hot
passionate kiss that I don't want to end...
Ever....
The lack of oxygen is becoming more obvious at every second. But I don't want to
let go yet.... Just one more second would be enough... I want you so much.... I
love you so much...
"I love you... so much..." I say, gasping for air as we pull apart from that
amazing kiss.
You hold my face with both hands, making me look straight at your eyes...
You smile.
I melt.
"Ken.." your voice is so gentle, so smooth.
"I lo-
"Wha!!" my eyes snap open, seeking for the danger my body felt just a second
ago.
"A-ano... sorry ... Ken-sama... I thought.... I thought you were asleep..."
I glance to my right and meet face to face with the scared expression of one of
Kuroda-san's maids.
"A-a-ano..." she stutters, looking down. I also look down
I see my hand seizing her own hand that is still grabbing a blanket that is
partially over my legs.
"Oh..." I let go oh her wrist and she backed away a few steps, I think I did
scare her...
"Mou!... Aya-san is not here again!!!"
I smile at the source of the female voice, trying to distract her mind from the
obvious reason of why there's so many less fangirls around the shop this days.
A few teasing words and the missing redhead is out of her mind for the rest of
the evening. Of course, the Kudo Charm never fails...
The flirting go on for two or three minutes, finally she and her friends leave
the shop with a bunch of flowers and the promise to come tomorrow. I flash
another 'killer smile' while saying good bye to the highschool girls, looking as
they go far away and then just out of sight.
I turn around, searching for the other male occupant of the room. Many fangirls
all over him, trying to squeeze some information about the lack of florists
these days.
Poor Omitchi, seems like the boy can't handle all the fussing at once... time
for some Kudo acction!
"Pardon my ladies!!" I say wraping one arm over Omittchi's shoulders, dragging
him far way from the little mass of rabbid fangirls, settling him safely behind
the counter.
With another set of teasing words and nice compliments, the last girls finally
leave the flowershop, signaling the end of another busy day.
I put the 'closed' sign and locked the door, finally resting my eyes on the
other occupant in the room....
Omi... he has that lost look on his heart-shaped face again... it makes him look
so much older...
In other words, it did not suit the chibi at all!
I walk over to him, but the chibi looks completely outta this world. Time to
wake him up, I guess...
"Hey! Wake up Sleepy Beauty," I put one slim finger under his chin, lifting his
head to look straight at my eyes... mmmm, smooth skin...
Unfocused blue orbs stare at my green ones for two seconds, before he jerked
away, a pinkish blush spreading over rounds cheeks.
"Ah-ah gomen Yohji-kun!!! I was kind of..!"
"It's okay, I closed the shop already.."
"Uhh... thanks Yohji-kun.."
"No problem chibi!" A fluttering feeling of dissappointment crossed my mind at
the unspoken remark of 'not being a child anymore!'. Omi just seems to get lost
in thoughts again.
"Omi... you know you already tried everything to get him out of there..." I say,
knowing 'who' he was thinking about just now..
"Demo... Yohji-kun.. it's been two months already. Manxs can't keep the hold on
missions any longer, and we need him! "
For a split second I almost felt jealous...
"Can you talk to him... one more time? Onegai Yohji-kun....?" That pleading
puppy eyes again.. who can resist that...
Well, I know I can't ...
"Okay Omittchi... just one more time..." I say, already walking upstairs to face
one hell of an assassin...
I reach the door of his room but there's no need to knock or ask for entrance, I
know he didn't care anyway....
He's there, a piece of broken man, the remains of a heartless assassin sitting
on the midle of his dark bedroom.
Well, maybe not that heartless.... until now...
Poetic aren't we today?
"Are you done crying, little princess?"
There's not even the slightest flinch or move from the stoic redhead, not even
to retort the estupid remark...
I knew this wouldn't work...
Lets play plan b....
With two strides of my long legs I reach the collar of the pityful redhead,
lifting him so I can see right in his eyes
And I almost panic when I found nothing.....
"You knew this would happen someday.... we all knew.... he knew.... move on
Aya, we need you. Omi needs you!"
Still nothing... fucking bastard...
Let's try something different... though I know I'll regret this sooner or later...
"Aya.... You know he's dead.."
Finally! a flicker of emotions pass through cold eyes, let's try again...
"Aya, Ken is dead..."
"No..." looks like he can talk after all...
"He's been dead for months.."
"They didn't find the body.."
"There's no need to, the building collapsed..."
"No"
"..over him and crushed his body..."
"Shut up"
".. into a bloody pulp, and the fire..."
"SHUT UP!!!!!"
His feral growl was the only warning before my back was slammed against the wall
by the sheer force of his right punch.
I must have blacked out for a minute, 'cause the next thing I knew, Omi was
standing between Aya and me.
He's saying something, but the blood rushing from my ears is all I can hear
right now.
The boy hepls me stand up and drags me out of the dark room. I glance behind me
just in time to see Aya sit down in the same spot I found him before, not even
lookimg back at least once.
"Yohji-kun, daijoubu?" I nod slightly but I groaned in pain when he placed a
pack of ice on my already swollen eye.
I knew I'd regret this... ouch! my face!!!
"Seems like there's only one thing left for us to do Omi..."
"But we can't.."
"You know we should have done this from the start Omi..."
"Yohji-kun..."
"Come on, there's someone we need to call"
If this doesn't work, then nothing will......
TBC
HOA!! another cliffhanger!!! I promise you minna, the next chapie will come soon!!!
