Ok, again thanks for all of the reviews everybody, I love you all! Hehe… Oh, and EPM, thanks for the instructions for removing that review! Sorry to keep you all waiting for this chapter, you know the drill though – please leave me a nice review!
"Amara I…" Seiya stuttered. "I…I…um…I…uh…like you…a lot." He mentally slapped himself. He looked at her to see if she was about to kill him or not. To his surprise, she was smiling at him.
"Seiya…I…" She began. He silenced her with a single finger on her lips.
"It's more than that, Amara," he said, less nervous now. "I love you…" He continued.
'Yes!' he thought 'I told her!'
Her heart leapt. 'He feels the same way! Yes!'
"Seiya, I…I…" She began. He let her take her time with what she was saying, as he knew that she wasn't good with confessing. "I feel the same way… I love you too!" He grinned and pulled her closer, into a warm hug.
"I've felt this way for a while." He told her. "I'm sorry I was so mean to you…" She looked into his deep blue eyes.
"I'm sorry I was mean to you too." She said. "I was trying to hide my feelings for you." She confessed.
"So was I." He pulled away from her slightly, taking his hands off her waist. He looked directly into her eyes and tilted her head up. He brushed her hair back off her face, noticing the sweet, fruity scent of it, and also how soft it was.
He leaned closer until their lips met. He kissed her tenderly, once on the lips, and pulled away. She smiled at him, and he kissed her again, more passionately, and this time, she responded to him, lips parted and tongues entwined. He put his one of his hands on the back of her head; the other gently stroked her lower back. Her arms were around his neck, and their eyes were closed.
After what seemed like an eternity, he broke the kiss. As the opened their eyes, they both realised that they had acquired an audience. While they were kissing, Yaten, Taiki, Michelle, Trista, Hotaru, the other girls, Rini and Darien had all returned from their shopping trip, unheard by Amara and Seiya during their passionate kiss.
Both Amara and Seiya blushed furiously when they looked at everybody's questioning or surprised looks.
"So," Serena spoke up. "Does this mean that you two are a couple then?" Seiya looked at Amara questioningly, who smiled back at him and nodded slightly.
He turned back to look at everyone.
"Yes, it means that we are a couple." He said and grinned that oh-so-sexy grin of his.
Everyone sat down in the living room, and, just as Seiya had expected, a round of questions ensued.
"So, Amara, how long have you liked Seiya for?" Mina asked.
"And why didn't you tell us?" Rei added.
"And why were you both so cold to each other?" Michelle finished.
"Well, " Amara began. "I've liked him for ages, secretly, and I didn't tell any of you because you'd all try to set us up, and talking to each other was something that we had to do in our own time. We were mean to each other because we were both trying to hide our feelings." Seiya nodded showing his agreement with Amara.
"Oh." Serena said. They all started talking about other things like school and boys, and Amara decided to go outside. She motioned for Seiya to follow her.
They both walked out into the back garden. It was a clear night, and many stars were visible. Seiya took Amara's hand, and with his free hand, he pointed to a star.
"See that star?" He asked her. Amara nodded. "Our planet orbits that star." He turned to look at her while she spent a few moments looking at that star.
"Seiya?" She asked.
"Yes?" He answered her.
"Did you really mean what you said earlier?" She finished.
"Yea, I meant it with all my heart." He told her. She looked into his eyes, and instantly knew that he was telling the truth.. She lay her head on his shoulder, and he put his arms around her.
"Seiya?" She said again.
"Huh?" He answered.
"I love you." Amara told him.
"I love you too…" he said and kissed her forehead.
Amara looked at the star which Kinmoku orbited again.
"Seiya, what happens when you have to leave?" she asked, with a hint of sadness in her voice.
Ok, I'm evil! I know… but that doesn't give you an excuse not to review! So please review, and I'll try to update sooner next time! Amara, xxx.
PS: I was going to update this last night, SkyGoddessHaruka, but you know when I said I spilt my orange juice? Well, I spilt it on my computer keyboard, which is why I didn't IM back afterwards. My keyboard is totally screwed, and I had to buy a new one today! But, just so you know, the first thing that I did was finish writing my fic, and post! Ok? Talk to you later! Love, Amara, xxx.
I know I said it before, but please review! K?
