[Disclaimer: this is just a continuation of a story, I already said I don't own it so I don't see the point. Well, this is the next chapter, thanks for the positive reviews. Now on with the story.

                                                            Scar in my heart

            Motoko felt something strange in her sleep, the void that she felt inside of her ever since she met Keitarou was almost filled. It made her feel at ease and she slowly relented from her slumber, distinguishing the feeling as a hand running through her hair. As she opened her eyes she found that she had collapsed and fallen asleep by Keitarous' bed side. He had been in a coma for three days and she had been by his side whenever she could. The night before she had cried herself to sleep while listening to his heart beat softly.

            Looking up she quickly realized it was Keitarous' and he was stroking her hair gently. His eyes were not open as he showed the same signs that a person did when they woke up from a nap. Smiling she took in the moment and let him run a hand through her hair, the feel of it was stimulating and sent pleasant shrills through all of her body.

            "Narusegawa"

            Her eyes opened, he loved Naru. She quickly decided to live in the moment, not letting anything get to her, she steeled herself from any comments and just relaxed as Keitarou continued to run his hand through her hair. His hand became more intense, yet his strokes remained gentle and loving, showing that he was waking up.

            "Mm, Naru, ah. Motoko? I am so sorry please forgive me, I did not mean to do that." He pleaded out to her.

            Motoko sighed and stood up. "No need to apologize, it felt nice,  even if you did call out for Naru. Urashima, listen, what happened the other day, I was completely and totally at fault. I was overcome by rage from not being able to comprehend what I was feeling at the time. Please forgive me." Motoko was looking at the ground while holding her left arm that was dangling straight down, with her right hand.

            "No, Motoko I must apologize, You wouldn't have attacked me if I didn't do something wrong."

            "Urashima, you didn't do anything wrong. I was frustrated and worked myself into a rage. That is why I attacked you"

            "But in order for you to come after me, I must have been the cause of your frustration."

            'Damn, I just thought Haruka was kidding when she said that Keitarou was very wise. I must come clean though, I owe it to him.' "Yes, I was thinking about how you affect me and why you affect me in that way. I have been feeling this deep down longing for you, whenever you are with Naru, I find myself wishing to be her. I wish to go out on dates with you, to have an important part in your life. I have an urge to become one with you in every way, it is so strong I do not care that I will no longer be me if I join with you the way I want. I just want to be that way with you.

"I love you Keitarou, you complete me in a way that no other can. I attacked you because I did not wish to see this fact for myself. It confused and annoyed me to feel that way for you and to try to understand why. I am sorry that I attacked you. It nearly cost you your life. Please, don't ever die on me. Please." Motoko ended near a whisper and cut off any response Keitarou would have said with a long passionate kiss.

When Motoko finally let up his assault of his lips, Keitarou just stared at her with a dumbfounded expression. However, she did not care and just rested her head on his chest, eyes closed, listening to his heart beat. She felt so complete at that instant. All the problems of the world and all the troubles that had been brewing inside of her just fell away to nothingness.

Unable to comprehend the situation, Keitarou just started to run his hand through Motokos hair again, earning a loving sigh of content from her.  Trying to compose himself he let out a sigh himself.

"I see that you two are enjoying each other. What do you think your doing to him this time Motoko?" Asked Naru.

"I'm sorry Naru-senpai. I never meant to hurt him like that. I swear it."

"Sorry isn't enough." Yelled Naru. "You almost killed Keitarou, I almost lost him before I could tell him how I feel. I don't know what I would do if I lost him, I love Keitarou so much that I can't go on without him by my side." She was on the verge of tears now.

"Naru, I, I love you too." Keitarou looked over at her.

            There was a moment of silence before Naru charged over to Keitarou and hugged him, crying into his chest. Motoko however had gotten off of him and was walking out of the room slowly, looking back at Keitarou every now and then on her way out. She slowly headed to the girls bath, running into Shinobu and Kitsune along the way.

"Well hello there Motoko, going to join us for a bath?" Motoko nodded yes to Kitsunes' question. "Good, then we can talk."

After settling into the hot springs and relaxing a bit, Motoko decided to ask something that has been on her mind for a long time, even if she was seeking it from what could easily turn out to be the wrong source.

"Kitsune, Shinobu, how do you feel about Urashima?" Both were taken aback by the question, Motoko noticed this. "I'll tell you how I feel if you tell me how you feel."

"Motoko, we all know how you feel about Keitarou, you hate him with every fiber of your being, I however feel that he is everything that I could ever want in a man. He makes all the other guys I have been with look like a bunch of pigs. So why should a beautiful pearl, like myself, be given to swine when I could be the property of such a good person?" Answered Kitsune.

"I agree with Kistune, I love Sempai with all my heart, If it wasn't for him I wouldn't be living here, I wouldn't be studying as hard and be at the top of my class, I would probably be crying in my moms new apartment while I fail my classes and drown myself in things to try and shut out reality. Whenever I am near him, he inspires me to be a better person, to be happy. I wish to be with him always, I don't think that I could ever find another person to like and love more than him."

"I do not hate Urashima. It's just that this is my first time feeling like this around a guy. I just get violent with him out of frustration over no being able to understand this. I was scared and felt so vulnerable, after living most of my life of not feeling those and having control of my life being taken from me an put in the hands of a complete stranger. I did not like that feeling, so I responded to it the only way I knew and felt how."

"Whoa, this is way over my head, maybe you should go talk to Haruka, she would probably know what to do."

"Don't bother, I can't help in this matter either." Said Haruka as she sat across the spring from them.

"How long have you been there?" asked Kitsune with a hint of embarrassment in her voice.

"Long enough. Now if you don't mind, I'm going to go back to the tea house." Haruka then got up and left.

"Sorry, we weren't able to help you Motoko. Maybe there is someone else that you know that can help." Shinobu suggested.

"It's okay Shinobu, I think I know just the person too." Said Motoko as she got up to leave. 'I must talk with Tsuruko, She will know what to do."

[Hope you enjoyed this. As I said, don't rush me, I've got other stuff I am working on. So please show some patience, It would be much appreciated.]
