CHAPTER 5
The whole group of Leafe knights and Mawata's family were finally fitted quite comfortably in the trailer. There was seats with a little space between each person for breathing room. Though, It had taken them an hour to finally board the trailer Mawata had to admit it was a beautiful one.
Well like they said money could buy you everything….., She glanced quickly at Sasame—a little farther down the aisle from her, staring quietly out the window—Well perhaps not everything.
The trailer had large windows, covered with red velvet and plush warm seats that you could sink into. A wooden maple table was stuck firmly into the ground and a quaint bathroom in a small corner.
She sighed and opened her book. Himeno was on one side of her, chattering happily with Hayate but no one was on her left.
Not that I mind. She told herself.
Go was opposite her, staring intently at her and blushed the minute she looked directly into his toffee colored eyes.
Hmm.
At the corner of her eye she saw Mannen sniggering and sharing a knowing look with Himeno. It was so infuriating.
She dropped her eyes and concentrated on the printed letters before her yet it swam before her eyes and she didn't absorb it.
She could hear sasame's voice in her ears as he chatted with a small grin on his face to Shin and Hajime.
"Hey Mawata"
Mawata turned to her step-sister, whose face was shining with excitement.
"Yeah?"
"We should play a game!"
Mawata raised an eyebrow "Excuse me?"
"Yes what about all the embarrassing things that happened in himeno's life" Maune said, do tell"
"Ha-ha Maune, No I mean a bus game!"
"We're not in a bus" Mawata said.
"Stop being a kidder, will you me gather everyone for the game?—they're all in separate corners—and let's convince them to play!"
"If you really want me to" Mawata said storing her book in her sachet.
"Thanks Mawata! You're a pal—sister"
"Uh-huh"
"Alright, Himeno raised a finger a glint in eye, So here's how we'll do it! I'll convince one person to join and then it's your turn, then back to my turn and so on. Get it?"
"Mmm yeah, Why don't you just act Hayate to help you—I mean all he has to do is scowl" Mawata said with a small tease.
Her mood was brightening already as Himeno cheered her up….
Hayate looked at her putting a serious expression on his face.
Himeno and Mawata laughed.
Sasame, knight of sound, immediately heard that laugh—the one he knew so well—not that it was hard to miss being so close.
He turned watching her, without her noticing…
"Anyways I'll go first….now who should I convince? Himeno said with fake questioning, I know! Hayate! Hayate will you join the game with me?"
"Uhh-Yeah for you though games rather bore me" Hayate said with a yawn.
Himeno gave him a quick peck on the lips.
"That outta make up for it—you're turn Mawata"
"That didn't count—oh fine, Her eyes roved skipping determinedly over Sasame and landing on Go.
She leaned forward in her seat, her hair tumbling over her eyes, quickly brushing it back.
"Hey Go"
"Hi Mawata"
"I was wondering—Himeno wants us to play a game on the bus would you join us?"
"Of course!" Go said looking flustered
"Thanks" Mawata smiled in triumph. "You're turn"
She leaned back.
And on it went from picking Maune, to her mother, to himeno's father---back and forth—to Mannen and shin and Hajime and finally there was only one person left. Sasame. And it was Mawata's turn.
Her mouth was dry and she knew at once with looking at Himeno that this was what she planned. Fuming angrily to herself she said to Himeno
"Why don't you ask him"
"It's your turn"
With a half-frown in himeno's direction Mawata stood up and started walking toward Sasame's sleeping form. His white hair covered his face and chest moved up and down evenly.
She grabbed tightly onto the seats so she wouldn't stumble and finally stood before him, a shadow on his pale face.
So calm…peaceful…
She didn't want to awaken him just stare at his angelic face…..the face that hurt her….
Mawata was one of mixed feelings.
Clearing her throat, to wake him up, she was about to speak when the driver yelled:
"NASTY BUMP ON THE RIGHT CORNER BRACE YOURSELF!"
Their was a sudden shaking in the trailer and Mawata's legs started wobbling beneath her—she needed a seat—her's was to far away.
Still she stumbled trying to walk towards it, forgetting about Sasame—just trying to stay up—
No one appeared to notice that she was having difficulty for after all they were at the front of the trailer while they were at the way back.
When had he moved here? He was in the front before….or not that far away from me, talking to shin and Hajime…but I suppose he vanishes quickly…
She had just stabilized her feet when a particular large bump sent her flying backward. Her feet had no footing and her arms flailed wildly…
For the second time that day she felt the touch of Sasame's icy hand on her own. He grabbed her wrist stopping her fall and pulled her towards him. His tug was so powerful that she didn't have any resistance—not that she wanted to---Her eyes closed and let Sasame control…
Sensing that and without further hesitation if any in the seconds time, He pulled her into his lap, locking his slender fingers around her waist.
The trembling continued, the trailer shaking, she could feel the floor vibrating beneath her. Mawata gritted her teeth.
Why won't it Stop!
"HOLD ON, the driver shouted, WE'RE ALMOST OUT OF IT—WE'RE OUT OF IT!"
The shaking seized, the trembling stopped, and the loud noises evaporated in the dust. Mawata sighed, her tension seizing and yet tensing once more..for she was on sasame's lap. Her heart was thudding rapidly and she was sure he could hear it being the knight of sound.
"Are you alright?" He said softly in her ear.
His lips tickled against her ear and she couldn't concentrate.
"uhh..what? I mean yes, yes I'm fine."
"I'm glad" His voice was so sweet that she wished she could lie there forever.
"Listen…,She said softly glancing out the window, I'm sorry about earlier…I never meant to yell at you like that"
He was silent and then said "No Mawata, you had the right….you don't have to apologize "
Fiery anticipation roared from her body, yet she bit her lip trying to hold it back…
Sasame grinned,knowinly " Why were you coming back here anyway?"
"H-himeno wanted me to ask you if you'd play some game."
"Will you be playing?"
"I suppose" She shrugged.
"I'd love to play Mawata"
A chill ran down her spine as he spoke her name.
Mawata had to get up, she didn't no what she would do, her heart was pounding with passion and she wondered if he was waiting to see what would happen.
Mawata tried to stand up but he wouldn't let her. Just gripped her tighter.
"Are you sure you're okay….I sense you're waves they're in panic…"
"I-I'm fine" His lips, icy cold brushed against her side face as he talked to her.
"Alright then, he stood up helping her as he did so—his face cheery, let's go play himeno's game"
Sasame didn't know a lot about personal boundaries.
As they walked towards Himeno and the group, Mawata didn't notice—to flustered to think but Sasame did—two fierce brown eyes glaring accusingly at him as he walked with Mawata.
Well this I suppose had a lot more romance then the previous and I hope you enjoyed it. There is gonna be some conflict as Go trys to win Mawata's heart
Review please—tell me whatcha think
ok no more mawata falling over/ on sasame. I have new ideas
