Never Thought it was You
Chapter 9: At last…I smile again…
She was surely done with…
His hands were attacking every part of her body; straddling her… her mind had gone blank with the shock of what was happening to her. Never in her entire life had she once imagined being in this kind of situation, nonetheless with Horohoro…she tried shouting, but that was impossible, she was way too dizzy and exhausted to do that…he on the other hand still had that mad look on his face…he was crazy…
"Please…please stop" she moaned into his ear. Her eyes were going out of focus again, this hot water was again starting to get to her and weaken her. But this time even when she felt his hungry hands on her,his lipstasting her smooth skin, histongue leaving traces of him everywhere on her body,she couldn't say a word…
She just cried silently.
She was slipping into darkness…her head suddenly felt very heavy, her body limp andshaking uncontrollably…she could stay conscious no longer…as she fell, the last thing she saw was the door to the hot spring slide open loudly and somebody running towards her…she heard Horohoro's yell of shock…
And then…total blackness…she could not think nor feel anything anymore…
Ah, bliss…
She was standing in the middle of a beautiful rose field, surrounded by gorgeous flowers and bathing in the golden sunlight. She looked around. There was nobody there…why was she all alone? Where was everybody?
She started walking on the soft grass, humming to herself. For some reason she felt happy, as though there was something wonderful in stored for her.
There behind that big tree, somebody was sitting reading a book. She ran towards them.
It was Yoh.
He smiled sweetly at her, but didn't say anything…how weird…but she couldn't stop herself from blushing slightly…he was always so incredibly cute. I…I love him…so much…
"Yoh, I…" but she went quiet when he looked up at her, and shook his index finger at her, still smiling that adorable smile…
She didn't understand.
"Yoh what"- he pointed to his right.
As she turned her head, her heart starting pounding in her chest. That place over there…she knew that place…but where? And why?
She headed that way, and found herself on a stony stairway, lined with trees on both sides. She walked down. There on the right, came a strange sound she recognized. She peered from behind the trees, andgasped at the sight that greeted her.
The shape of that hair, that cute outfit…
Ren was training in that deserted space in the park…
He turned to look at her…
"Tamao…"
She stood rooted to the spot, unable to utter a sound. Her heart, it was beating so fast like it was determinedto burst out of her chest. She turned to look back at where her life-time crush was sitting. He was still there, smiling. But in addition, he was nodding his head, then raised her a thumbs-up.
"Tamao…"
His voice was so gentle she felt like crying...
"Tamao…you're here" and for the first time in her life, she saw him smile...he smiled with all his heart. Her knees weakened just looking at him. But then his feautres changed to show a very sad Ren. His eyes...they were enough to let her know everything she ever wanted to know about him.
"Come back"..."Please, just come back...to me..."
His voice was suddenly very far away…
She opened her eyes…
There he was, sitting on a chair next to her bed. His hands were squeezing her hand, his eyes shut tightly…
"Tamao…please…come back…to me"
"Ren…kun?"
His head shot up at hearing her sweet voice.
"TAMAO!"
Without warning, he jumped up, and deciding on the spot, gave her a warm hug.
"Baka, I was so worried about you" it broke her heart to hear his voice shaking.
"I'm so sorry Tamao. I should've kept an eye on you, to prevent…something like this…ever happening"
At the mention of that incident, she broke away from him and turned her head sideways, tears welling up in her eyes.
"I'm…sorry…I didn't mean to remind you. I just…" he didn't know what to say. How could he have been so stupid? Of course the memory of that would probably freak her out for a long time before sheget over it.Hishands balled into fists as he remembered what had happened the night before. The sight of that bastard touching her like that, and her only half-conscious, pleading for him to let her go…he had gone crazy just seeing that. He swore if Tamao hadn't fainted, he would've maybe killed Horohoro…
He watched her out of the corner of his eye. She was staring out the window of his room at the bright sunlight; she seemed to havejust realized that she was in his house, on his bed. Her eyes were telling him that she was currently lost.
"I can't believe he'd do such a thing" she suddenly announced. "I've always seen him as a good, kind friend." the tears that had been forming in her eyes made their way down her face. He couldn't stand seeing her cry. He wanted to make her feel better; he wanted to make her smile again. I…I know now…
I just realized…that…
"I love you"
And he swooped down and kissed her on the lips.
Her eyes widened in shock. She remembered the dream she just had…and now everything was clear as crystal…yes it was true,she did love Yoh for a very long time, but now she has found her true love, the boy she had been watching for the longest time without knowing the reason of her interest in him…it was…
Love…
She wrapped her arms around his neck and pressed her lips against his, deepening their kiss. His heart exploded as he saw this reaction from Tamao.
Does this mean that she…?
"I love you too, Ren"
At last he had found happiness…this was what his sister had always meant…now he knew how right she had been…
Tamao smiled happily for the first time in days…in her heart she thanked the person who was her crush for as long as she could remember…Yoh…you helped me realize this…so thank you…
Now, I have the boy of my dreams…
I love you so much, Ren-kun….forever…
Now... only now... I feel like I can smile again...
