This is a note to everyone. I think I'm going to change the title to my story to become, "To Be With You" so look for it okay. I'll start changing it in the next chapter.
Previously: TONIGHT AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT AND ATOP THE STARLIGHT TOWER, I WILL STEAL A KISS FROM THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LADY IN THE WORLD signed DARK
WHILE DARK AND DAISUKE IS FLYING
"Hey Dark, how are you going to do this?" Daisuke asks.
"Fly to Riku's room, ask her to come with me, if she refuse, use force and kidnap her," Dark answered bluntly.
"Kidnapping sounds a bit much,"
"I don't see you have any other bright ideas," Dark said.
"Well I never planned this project," Daisuke answered.
"It's my business, so you have to stay out of it," Dark replied.
Daisuke hushed up because he knew Dark was right. This is Dark's business; it has nothing to do with Daisuke.
They finally landed on Riku's balcony.
"Well, well, if it isn't the great phantom thief Dark," a voice said. It turned out to be Satoshi. He was also standing on her balcony.
"And if it isn't the annoying Commander?" Dark said under his breath.
"So the note was real after all?" Satoshi asked in a calm voice.
"Of course, who would dare try to imitate the great thief must either be really brave or really stupid," Dark said in a boasting voice.
"So since when does the great thief play the part of a kidnapper?" Satoshi asked.
Riku who heard voices outside opened her door.
"Satoshi? Dark?" Riku yelled in surprise.
"Since now," Dark said as he ran over and picked Riku up and flew.
"Damn," Satoshi said.
"What the hell are you doing? Let me go," Riku screamed.
"No way, do you actually want to drop all the way down there?" Dark asked in a cool voice.
When Riku looked down, she screamed, "What the heck, land right now, land right now."
Dark finally landed on the top of the Starlight tower.
"So they didn't take me seriously, as if some cop cars are going to capture me," Dark said, "I guess they thought it was a fake note."
"But it wasn't," Riku replied. Dark turned to face her. The time was exactly 11:58.
"I know what you want," Riku said trembling.
"And I know that you won't give it to me that easily," Dark said in reply.
"Like hell I will," Riku yelled.
"Phantom Thief Dark, never goes back on his word," Dark said with a smirk, "besides, it's not like you can get off this tower that easily."
Dark was right, the top of the tower was barely big enough for both enough to stand let alone move around, so the only way to get off is either Dark fly them off, or jump of the building in attempt to commit suicide.
Down below the police finally realizes the note wasn't fake, but it was too late, actually they didn't think it was really a big deal, because it's just a kiss from some girl, but they really wanted to capture Dark, but there's no way you can get to the top of the tower unless you fly in like Dark did. So basically, the police are useless. There was a photographer from the weekly newspaper taking shots of the whole thing though. The photographer himself didn't know if the note was fake or not, but he decided to take that chance, and now he's here, the only person who has a camera.
Riku was deathly afraid of heights, when she looked down, her body paralyzed. Normally for her coaster rides at the amusement park is fine, but this height was something else. She was so scared.
"Riku," Dark began to say her name.
"What?" Riku looked at him angrily since she never asked for this.
"I love you," Dark said softly.
"Yeah right," Riku answered right away, "and you also love the other millions of girls out there."
"Riku, I'm serious," Dark said this time his tone of voice was serious, " I meant what I said on that note, in my eyes you truly are the most beautiful lady in this world." This caused Riku to actually pay more attention to him. There was no way this is happening. There is no way that Dark loves her.
"Listen, maybe you are serious, but it's not like I'm going to return your feelings," Riku said in a small voice. The time was already 11:59.
"I know," Dark replied, "but I just wanted you to know my feelings, maybe someday you will return it, who knows."
"I still don't believe you," Riku replied hiding a smile.
For some reason Riku felt kind of refreshed somehow. Maybe it was because it was the first time someone ever seriously confessed to her or it was his eyes that told her that he was telling the truth, but it was a warm feeling.
When Riku didn't answer, Dark thought she was mad or something.
"Hey Dark," Riku finally said.
"Yes," It was the Great Phantom Thief's turn to be nervous.
"Thanks for trying to understand me," Riku said making Dark blush.
The clock finally struck 12:00.
"Just this one time, please," Dark pleaded.
"Okay," Riku replied.
Dark held Riku in an embrace and kissed her. Riku actually agreed to this one because she thought it was okay since it was probably the last one and it was a kiss out of love, not like the other kisses before. Even though she was positive she had no feelings for him, it was okay just this one time. After the kiss Dark still held onto Riku and whispered in her ear, "I love you." And made Riku blush. He finally let her go, and picked her up and flew.
"You know, it's not like I've given up," Dark said while he was flying.
"I know, but it's not like I will give you a chance," Riku replied with a smirk.
They finally landed on her balcony. Dark put Riku down.
"So this is goodbye right?" Riku asked.
"I guess so," Dark answered.
"Well goodnight then," Riku said as she walk passed him. For some unknown reason as she walked passed she tripped and almost fell when Dark caught her.
"Yours is a pretty nice size," Dark said with his hand on her chest when he caught her. That earned him a slap across the face.
"PERVERT," Riku called as she ran inside.
"That went well," Dark said holding his cheek while flying back.
Daisuke smiled.
"What are you so happy about?" Dark asked with a frown.
"Oh nothing," Daisuke answered. Daisuke somehow actually felt kind of relieved Riku didn't like Dark. He wondered what his reaction would've been if Riku liked Dark.
THE NEXT MORNING
Riku and Dark's picture from yesterday made it to the front page. There was quite a commotion from everyone, mostly from the girls.
IN CLASS
"So it turned out it was Riku," girls began to gossip.
"No way,"
"Didn't you see the morning paper, she and Dark kiss was on the front page,"
"Oh my gosh,"
Risa and Daisuke walked into the classroom.
"Risa did you see yet?" the girls asked.
"See what?" Risa asked in surprise.
"This?" the girls handed the paper to Risa. Daisuke took a quick glimpse of it.
"This is not good Dark," Daisuke said to Dark.
"Well it's too late to do anything now," Dark replied.
"What the hell?" Risa yelled causing the whole class to look at her. Risa held in her anger and walked to her seat.
"How can she do this to me?" Risa thought, "she knows I love Dark."
Riku finally walked into the class with no clue of what was going on. The whole class became silent. She stood by the door wondering was wrong, and suddenly caught the newspaper Daisuke was holding.
"Holy crap," Riku said loudly.
"So how does it feel to kiss Dark?" one of the girls asked slyly.
"It must be nice to have a guy like to Dark to notice you," another girl said. The comments just kept going and going. Riku held her head down, feeling like she was going to cry.
"What the heck, it's not their place to decide for me who to like, let me out Daisuke," Dark yelled.
"No," Daisuke replied trying to get him to calm down, and look at Riku standing next to him.
Risa couldn't take it any longer, she stood up and walked over to Riku. The whole class became silent. Riku looked up at Risa to earn a slap across the face.
"Miss. Harada," Daisuke said loudly.
"How could you Riku, you know how I felt, you are my sister, I trusted you, you knew I love him," Risa yelled.
"Why that bitc, I don't care if she is Riku's sister, how can she treat her like that?" Dark said angrily.
At this point Riku started smiling and slapped Risa across the face.
"Whoa nice," Dark commented.
"Did you just say love?" Riku asked, "what makes you think you love him? You never even talked to him, how do you know what he's like, how do you know what you feel is love and not some silly school girl crush? I guess the reason he likes me is because, I'm the only person that realize him, and doesn't fall for his charm. He knows that if I like him than I will see the real him, unlike you and the other losers who think you love him but doesn't even know the first thing about him except his looks."
Riku said this and walked to her seat and sat down. The whole class was still silent. After she said this, Satoshi walked in. He was behind the whole door listening to the whole thing. He quietly walked to his seat. His expression still hasn't change that much, but deep down, he was feeling sad. Yesterday night, he couldn't do anything for Riku. He let her get taken and he couldn't even make it to the tower in time. He regretted not putting up more of a fight with Dark. School went by so slow for everyone. The whole class was quiet. Even Ms. Murrue realized the silence and was worried. She knew what have been going on, about Riku and Dark making it into the papers. It turns out all the girls was giving Riku the silent treatment, which was just torture since she really didn't do anything wrong.
The bell finally rang for the end of the day.
"Niwa, can I talk to you, it won't take long?" Risa said to Daisuke as he was about to leave.
"Sure," Daisuke said since he didn't have to get home early or anything.
Riku had track practice so she won't be going home until later. "That's a relieve," Riku thought as she was changing into her track clothes. She won't have to face Risa for a little while.
BEHIND THE SCHOOL GYM
"So Ms. Harada, what did you want to talk about?" Daisuke asked.
"Daisuke I want you to answer me honestly okay?" she asked with a whining tone.
"Okay," Daisuke answered still puzzled.
"Remember when you confessed to me so long ago?" Risa asked.
"Yeah," Daisuke answered remembering how hurt he was back then, and wondering where this conversation was heading to.
"Well, I was wondering do you still have those same feelings for me," Risa asked in a quiet voice, "because, because, I have fallen for you." Risa ran up and embraced Daisuke. Daisuke was blushing like crazy, and he couldn't believe his ears. His first love has confessed to him.
"Um," Daisuke began to say.
"Come on Daisuke; agree to it," Dark teased, "you still love her right?" Suddenly an image of Riku flashed in Daisuke's mind. He shook his head and looked down at Risa.
"Daisuke, do you know that I could never get you out of my mind?" Risa said softly, "at first I thought I love Dark, but today I just considered what Riku said and realized that you were the one for me."
"Can I give you my answer tomorrow?" Daisuke finally said. Risa let go of Daisuke and blushed.
"Sure," Risa replied and ran off.
"What is wrong with you Daisuke?" Dark yelled, "Risa just confessed to you."
"I don't know," Daisuke answered. Daisuke thought he should've been happy and agreed right away, but that wasn't really what he was feeling. Daisuke left to go to the art room. He felt like he needed to paint to calm himself down.
MEANWHILE
It was getting pretty late in the evening. The only people left on the track were Riku and her friend Kimi since Kimi always stays by Riku to help time her.
"I think we should call it a day," Riku said.
"Yeah," Kimi said, "you should go change first, and I'll go after I put the gear away."
"Sure," Riku said and left.
As Riku was walking to the girl's locker room, she couldn't shake of the feeling that someone was watching her.
"Hey you!" she heard someone called. Riku turned to see a black hair guy looking at her. She could tell that he wasn't a student here and he was much older about the age of a high school student. He looked like he works out a lot because his body shape was perfect.
"Yes?" Riku answered back.
"You're the girl that was in the papers this morning?" the guy commented.
"So what?" Riku said now started to get irritated.
"Hey, I did come all the way here to meet you, so shouldn't you be a little nicer to me," the boy asked.
"Meet me?" Riku questioned.
"Yeah, I wanted to see this so called lady Dark claims to be the most beautiful, from the looks of it he maybe right, you do have a nice figure," the boy said, "now how about you show me a good time?"
"No thanks," Riku said walking away.
"Hold it," the boy said grabbing her arm, "don't you think it's only fair since I did come all the way here to meet you."
"Sorry not interested," Riku snarled now trying to get loose from his grip.
"I think someone wants to play rough," he whispered in her ear, and he easily picked her up. Riku was about to screamed but he covered her mouth. She tried struggling, but he was much stronger than her. The boy dragged Riku inside the boy's locker room.
Kimi arrived just in time to see Riku get abducted.
"This is not good, Riku," she thought, "I can't fight him by myself." Kimi ran off to try to get some help.
INSIDE THE LOCKER ROOM
"Perfect, not a person in sight," the boy exclaimed.
"That's because it's so late," Riku thought. Now the boy put Riku down, and tried to give her a kiss. Riku slapped him and tried to run. He caught her by the shirt and ripped it open and threw it to the side leaving her bra exposed.
"You know, I actually like girls who put up a fight," the boy said.
He grabbed Riku and slammed her into the locker really hard, making her feel so dizzy. Riku felt herself get weaker as he laid her on the bench.
"Game over," he said as he got on top of her. Riku was weak letting her drowsiness take over.
The boy was now trying to lift up her skirt and got to the point where it exposed her panties.
"No," Riku thought as she felt her body heat up tears now running down her cheek, "I won't let him." Riku was now angry in her mind. She felt like she could kill him. She felt like she was getting her strength back. No, she was getting more than strength. She never felt stronger than she did right now.
The boy was about to reach for her panties when Riku gave him a punch and he landed against the lockers. Riku didn't believe what she just did as she got up and fixed her skirt back in place. She was too angry for words. Riku hit the guy pretty hard. He looked up into her eyes. It was full of hatred; he felt cold shivers so he ran. There was no way he could do anything to her now, she looked like she was about to kill him. After the boy ran out, Riku felt her body calming down, she was still crying.
MEANWHILE
Kimi ran as fast as she could hoping to find somebody to go help Riku. There was no way she was going to let anything happen to her friend. As she ran around the corner, she bumped into someone and landed on the ground. She looked up to see who she ran into, it was Satoshi.
"Hiwatari, it's terrible," Kimi said while panting at the same time trying to get off of the ground, "Riku, she, she,"
"She what?" Satoshi said his expression changing a little.
"I saw her get accosted by some big guy," Kimi yelled.
"To where?" Satoshi said now his voice filled with worry.
"Boy's locker room," Kimi yelled and ran to find some other person to help. It was then that she saw Daisuke.
Satoshi ran as fast as he could to the locker room. When he got there some guy ran out, and when he got inside, Riku was on the ground crying. Her shirt was all torn off. She looked up to see Satoshi and she backed away.
"Stay away from me," She screamed, "don't come any closer." Satoshi just didn't say anything, but inside he was really hurting. He has finally realized it. He realized that he loved her. Satoshi Hiwatari was in love with Riku Harada. He walked closer to her.
"I'm warning you," Riku said crying at the same time, "please, just stay away from me."
"I'm here for you now," Satoshi said as he grabbed her arm and pulled her closer to him and held her. Riku was of course still crying, but she felt comfort in his arm so she returned his hug.
THE BOY THAT TRIED TO HARRASSED RIKU POV
There was no way he was going to let Riku off the hook after she beat him up. He still had his pride. He saw Satoshi run into the locker room.
"Perfect," he thought. He quietly followed Satoshi inside and stood outside the door looking in at Satoshi and Riku making sure they couldn't see him. He saw them hug and took out his Polaroid.
"Let's see how you like this," he said as he took a picture and ran out as fast and quietly as he could.
KIMI TALKING TO DAISUKE
"Niwa," Kimi yelled.
"What's the rush?" Daisuke questioned.
"Riku was abducted to the boy's locker room, you have to help her," Kimi said.
"Riku?" Daisuke asked, and ran off as fast as Satoshi did.
"Please let her be okay," Daisuke prayed in his head.
"Run faster," Dark yelled. He too, was worried about Riku.
INSIDE LOCKER ROOM
As Riku and Satoshi was still embracing, Riku fell asleep from exhaustion. She really was tired, so many things have happened in her day today. Satoshi took off his shirt since he was wearing a white t-shirt under his original shirt that went with his uniform and wrapped it around Riku. He then picked her up and walked out side.
Daisuke arrived just in time to see Satoshi carry Riku out.
"Is she okay?" Daisuke asked running up to Satoshi.
"Yeah, nothing happened, she really is a strong girl," Satoshi answered, "she's just tired that's all."
"That's a relieve," Daisuke thought.
"Hell yeah," Dark said, "if anything did happened, I would've murdered the guy that did this to her."
"I'm taking her home," Satoshi said as he walked away.
"Need any help?" Daisuke asked.
"No, I can manage," Satoshi answered.
Satoshi finally got to the Harada house and placed Riku down. She was still fasted asleep.
"You know, I'm really glad that you're okay," he said as he placed a simple kiss on her forehead. He then rang the buzzer.
"Yes?" someone answered.
"I have Ms. Riku Harada here with me," Satoshi said through the intercom.
"My mistress,"
"Yes, and she is injured and sleeping right now, so I would like someone to come out and bring her in," Satoshi said.
"We'll be right there," the voice screamed.
Satoshi left before anyone came out. The butler rushed out to see Riku.
"Miss," he exclaimed as he picked her up. Risa ran down the stairs to see Riku.
"What happened," she yelled as she ran over to her sister.
"I don't know, someone just brought her home," the butler answered. He went and placed Riku on her bed.
"Riku, what happened to you?" Risa asked now tears forming her eyes, "I'm sorry about today."
Riku was still fast asleep.
DAISUKE'S ROOM
"Daisuke, what's wrong?" Dark asked, seeking how Daisuke have been sighing all evening.
"Nothing," Daisuke answered. What happened to Riku this evening was a complete shock to him. And seeing Satoshi with her was even more surprising.
"Do you think that maybe Satoshi cares for Riku?" Daisuke asked Dark.
"Beats me," Dark said, " but I hope he doesn't, cause she's mine."
"Yeah," Daisuke said feeling depressed.
"So Daisuke, what about Risa, are you going to say yes?" Dark asked.
"Yeah," Daisuke answered again, but it still wasn't a happy tone.
"Then why do you sound so depressed?" Dark questioned.
"I'm fine, just fine," Daisuke answered softly as he went to bed himself.
I think this was my best chapter yet, please review. Also remember that in the next chapter I will change the title of my story to TO BE WITH YOU, so look forward to it okay? Thanks so much everyone.
