Chapter 2: He Loves Me Back?

Beep Beep Beep Beep

What is that infernal noise? I muttered to myself as I sat in my bed.I looked over at the clock it was 6:03 am."Its too early!Dear God its Saturday!" I said as Miki jumped on my bed.

"Hey there little guy!" I said cheerfully

"Bark" Miki responded

I got out of bed and began to get dressed in a button up baby blue shirt and a long black skirt with black sandals.I really enjoyed my walk last night, I thought "How would you like a nice early walk trough the park!" I told Miki, I got a bark in response wich I assumed was a yes.I proceeded (A-N check spelling on 'proceeded')to put on Miki's leash (A-N on the dog not Mint)I headed downstairs and towards the door dragging Miki with me.We soon arrived at a park,it was still a little bit dark so there was no one except for Mikki and me.

"Well you might as well have some free time" I said as I took Miki's leash off of him.As I saw him run off I heard a voice.

"And I though I'd be the only one here!"

I turned and saw none other than Masaya.My mind traced back to yesterday,I acted like such an idiot.I could feel my face warming up and I felt a slight blush appear upon my face."Hi!"

"Well if isn't the gorgeous Mint!"he said

"Thanks" I said sadly,I knew he didn't mean it, his eyes were set on Ichigo and no one else.

"What's wrong?"Masaya asked me as he walked me over to a near bench.He sat down next to me on the bench,our eyes met,he could see that my eyes were red and watery.He cupped my chin with his right hand and once again he asked me what was wrong and I once again did not respond.

"Mint what's wrong?What is bothering you?" he asked for the third time.

"You have everything friends,family and love" he said.

This last word was the one that made the tears on my eyes roll down my cheeks "I... don't have...everything" I responded angrily."Then what do you need?Don't be afraid to talk to me, I will always be there for you",said Masaya as he hugged me.My head was now against his chest,I could smell a faint hint of colonge that suited him perfectly,I stoped my sobbing so that I could tell him my response "What I need..." I sighed "...is...you".I closed my eyes as I broke free from his grasp,I didn't want to see the expression on his face."Mint" he whispered as he pulled me closer and closer until our lips met transforming into a soft kiss.

"M-Masaya..." I looked up at him,confused.

"Mint... I...err" said Masaya as he looked around nervously.

"You're gonna say that you can't return my feelings,I understand.Ichigo's your one and only" I said looking down ready to start crying again.

"Can't say I don't" he said also looking down.

I looked up and lifted his chin with my index finger.Did he love me back?Was I more than his girlfriend's best friend? I was so very confused at this point,I just sat there thinking about what he had just said 'Can't say I don't'.What the hell did that mean?

"I liked you since I first saw you!" Masaya said now looking more comfortable

"You don't need to lie!" I said as I got up and started to run back home.

I rolled over in my bed, lifted up my hand and saw the time 11:30 am, my eyes were red and swollen from all the crying.I suddenly heard the doorbell ring.

Knock Knock

'Now what' I thought as I went to open the door.It was one of the many maids at our mansion."Miss Aizawa,your parents and your brother called they are coming to see you perform tonight" as I heard this the sadness i had felt in my heart a few hours ago was replacedwith utter excitement, but my thoughts were in terrupted asMarie,the maid spoke again "You also have a visitor Miss Aizawa"as Marie finished her sentence sheturned around and closed the doorbehind her,"A visitor?" I asked myself puzzled.In a few minutes I was outside in the patio, I saw a guy sitting down in one of the tables that were placed outside.'Who could that be?' I thought 'Ryou?No.He cantalk me at work.Keiichiro? No,he could do the same thing.Sergio?No.He's coming tonight, if he wanted to surprise me Marie wouldn't have tol me he was coming'.I realized that the only option that was left.Masaya.And it was right.

"What, do you want to humiliate me even more?" I said feeling the tears in my eyes.

"Mint... I brought Miki back for you,you just left him there"said Masaya dodging my question.

"Oh" I said dryly.

"Why are you...mad at me?"said Masaya, sounding like he was about to cry.

"Because you lied!If you don't like me all you had to do was say so!"I said,my voice breaking.

"But you don't understand!I... I do like you!"he said

"That's a load of crap! YOU LOVE ICHIGO AND YOU WILL NEVER LOVE ME!"I started crying"never ever" I whispered sobbing.

"You cause your own suffering Mint, you are just assuming I'm lying even though I'm not" he said.Now he was crying too.

"Mint...sob...I want you to...sob...sob stop crying...please"as he said this he sat up from his chair and stood next to me. (A-N are ya crying yet?LOL)

"Masaya... you don't have to do this, just say you don't love me...then it will all be over", I said still crying

"What can I do to make you see I'm not lying?" he asked

"Masaya..."I now realized he wasn'y lying,I caused him pain and suffering, two feelings I would never want a person I love so much to experience.He loved, me he really did.I started crying even harder than before,Masaya,my Masaya.I made him cry.I stood up and was now facing him."I m-made you cry...I'm so...I'm so sorr-" I couldn't finish my last word,Masaya's index finger was now in front of my lips."Don't say it"he whispred as he slowly leaned over to kiss me.His lips were warm,his tongue made its way inside my mouth.That was the best kiss I had ever gotten.I put my arms around his neck,I stood on tippy-toes (N-A sorry if thatdestroys the mood)so that I was same level as him I then leaned over and whispered somehting to his ear to which he responded "Me too".

As the music started,Istarted the routine that I had practiced many times before.This was my first solo.I wasn't nervous,it wasn't my first time performing in front of a big crowd, I continued to move gracefully around the stage hearing the 'oohs' and 'aahs' coming from the audience.Ballet is my passion.I gave one final turn before the music ended,then I went to collect roses and other kind of floweres that had been trown by the audience and into the stage as a gift,for me.My parents and my brother Sergio came and greeted me "Honey that was an excellent performace!"said my mother "Thank You Mother""Yeah lil'sis that was amazing" said Sergio "Great Performance, we'll be waiting in the limousine!"said my father.I waved good bye at them.Just as I was going to go inside my dressing room the rest of the Mews, Ryou and Keiichiro came over to say hi.

"Mint! You were soooooo awesome!" said Pudding,jumping up and down.

"She's right you dance so pretty!"said Lettuce shyly.

"That was a wonderful show " said Keiichiro

"I'm gonna have to agree on that one" said Ryou smiling.

"Ohhhhhhhhhhh Mint I'm soooooo jealous,I wish I could dance like that"said Ichigo

"Ummmmm... thanks all of you for coming to see me!Do you wanna come in?"I said politely.

"Sure!"said Ichigo but just then Ryou pulled on her collar and said "I think Mint has to change...unless you wanna see her undress, you can stay" "ARGH! No you perv!"Ichigo said as she hit Ryou on the head."Bye then, thanks for coming!" I said as I closed the door,I noticed Ichigo's bell was on the floor.It must have fallen off when Ryou pulled on her shirt.A few minutes later there was another knock at my door,annoyed I went to see who it was.Masaya.

"Hi" I said blushing beacause of what had happened earlier"Come in!"

"Sorry it's a little messy" I looked around clothes were thrown all around the floor and onea sofa.

"It's okay", said Masaya,looking at me in the eyes.

I put my arms around his neck,his body was warm and soft.He then put his arms around my waist.We kissed for a while.Then he took me and laid me down on the sofa, he was on top of me, with his arms stretched out,he got closer and closer,we were about to kiss when the door swung open, it was Ichigo.

"Ichigo!"Masaya and I said at the same time.

"I...just came...for my...bell"Ichigo said as she picked the bell up"But since you two are together now...I guess this is for...you" Ichigo said as she handed me the bell.She let out one piercing sob and tears started to roll down her cheeks,she ran outside a closed the door behind her with a loud THUD.I realized he was still on top of me,I pushed him off gently asI sat down.

"Masaya, what have we done?"I said as I tightly grasped Ichigo's bell thightly in my hand

"Mint..."he said as he hugged me
