DNAngel: Sacred Maiden
Sorry about that last chapter, I went a little overboard on the violence and swearing -.-" but I just in a bad mood so ya o.O. Chapter 9, never thought I would ever write this much! Only about 1 more chapter then its over...maybe if people want I can make a sequel, because I have the most fun writing this series then any other one that I write. Well, hope you enjoy it! Also, sorry that its been like a month since an update, its just juggling between different stories, and Ive become addicted to Evangelion, cause I now love the Shinji and Rei paring but w/e. Also, Im probably going to change the rating to M for the amount of adult content that this series has. Especially this and the last chapter. Don't get mad at me because I'm being realistic with their emotions, physically and sexually. I wont write a lemon, but I'll give hints that they really want to do the naughty dance. Just a warning to all the DaixRik haters out there
Chapter 9: Merry Christmas
"Riku...?" I said quietly to myself.
It wasnt Riku
"Oh...hey Naota, I would really like to be alone right now..."
"Common Daisuke, you need someone to talk to..."
"I'm fine"
"No you arent Daisuke, I know what you're going through"
"You dont know crap Naota" I said, starting to raise my voice, Takkun stepped back.
"Fine, if your going to be all moody about it" he said storming away.
I sat on my bed, sighing deeply, I couldnt believe what happend in a day. One of my best friends and my love were taken away from me in a cruel twist of fate. My back was still sore from the wings, and they throbbed mercilessly, I couldnt help but whince.
I jammed my face into my hands and tried my best to stop crying. Dont, dont,dont,dont,dont I kept saying to myself.
Riku was in the hospital, her condition was upgraded to stable and hopefully she'll make it, I'll probably go see her tonight.
I sighed once more before slouching onto my bed and flipping on the tv and watched Family Guy, a show that Riku and I used to watch everytime we were together. It was getting dark, and tomorrow we had to go home, but I wasnt leaving without Riku.
The door knocked and then quickly opened.
"Oh, hey, Risa" I said getting up before lying back down. Risa didnt say anything, she just sat on the other bed looking at me, her eyes red from throbbing.
"Niwa, I have to tell you something" she said looking away. I looked at her, "What?" I asked.
"I...I...I love you Daisuke, but I realize I can never have to same sort of relationship that you have with Riku, I-I was just selfish before, only wanting what I want" she said, speaking from her heart.
"And now...I realize that my older sister and you were made from eachother...and I support you...and-and I'm sorry that I've been a snob lately," I smiled.
"Thank you Risa" I said flipping my legs over the bed. I could feel my sadness and pain slowly fading away. I stood up and looked down at her, smiling and said, "You have become quite a fine young lady Risa" I said, I couldnt help but smile.
Risa got up and prepared to go, I walked her to the door. I gave her a big hug, "Riku will be ok, I promise you" I said before letting go of her, she smiled and was about ready to cry before she left hurriedly.
I ran towards the sliding glass door and swung it open, revealing the cramped patio. I ran jumped on on the rail with one foot, then jumped off the boat, free falling. The wind whistled in my ear. WINGS! I NEED WINGS! I screamed in my head.
The wings erupted from my back and I tried to hold back the pain, then I skimmed over the ocean and towards the hospital.
"I'm coming for you Riku!"
Riku
I lied in the bed in agonizing pain, the IV hooked up to my arm. I really didnt know if I was going to make it. I guess they didnt allow visitors for me for no one came...not even Daisuke.
His name hurt, what if Hiwatari did the same thing to him as he did to me? I couldnt bare to see Daisuke in pain, I remembered when I hit him, it made me want to burst into tears.
Hiwatari must have gone insane or something, those wings...they were like that Krad guy, except it was Hiwatari. My eyes were half-closed, my parents might have gotten the news already, if they would care. The only people that really care for me are Risa and Daisuke...Daisuke
I winched shutting my eyes, shaking my head violently, trying to forget about him, he was gone. The wind blew through the open window suddenly, and a figure stood there with wings that slowly dissapeared. I opened my mouth to scream, but no words came out, Hiwatari came back for the job.
The figure walked up right next to me. "Wha! Whaddya want from me!" I tried to scream, but came out in a whimper.
He flipped a switch to turn on the light, it was Daisuke Niwa
Daisuke
When I flipped the switch, I could see Riku's blood rush back to her face. She looked weak, tired, she was a real fighter, I dont think I would have survived that much aura.
"Daisuke! What are you doing here!"
I pulled a chair up next to her and sat there, my elbows resting on my knees. "Go to sleep Riku, you need it, I'll be here." I said putting my hand on her warm head. She sighed and began to relax, "I'm so glad that your ok Dai-chan"
"I'm glad that your just with me Riku..." I putting my head down. She rolled her head lazily, "What are you doing here..." she said, half asleep.
"I've come to see you Riku" I said affectionatly, squeezing her hand. "I'll always be here with you, till death-do-us-part" I said smiling. She smiled, I wanted to kiss her badly, but she had no strength.
"Thank you Daisuke" she said and slowly closed her eyes, I thought she was dying and started to panic in the darkness, but the blips on the heartbeat was still going, so I calmed down.
"I...I thought this trip would be good for us...make us happy...closer" I said to myself, biting my bottom lip.
"I'll make this up for you, I promise Riku-san, I just want things to be perfect for you..." I said, the words being swept by the wind and out the window.
"D...d...did Hi-Hi-Hiwatari hurt y-y...you Daisuke" She said, slightly opening her eyes.
"No..it's ok...he'll never hurt you again" I said resting my hand on her head affectionately. It was getting late now...people might wonder where I am.
"Riku-san, I have to go...I'm sorry" I said standing back up, the wings sprouting from my back once again, red feathers falling onto her hospital bed.
"W...will you be here tomorrow" she said, sitting up.
"Yeah, first thing"
"Promise?"
"Promise" I said before walking towards the window, but I was interrupted by Riku saying, "I always knew that you were an angel..."
I didnt really know if that was a metaphor or if she really thought I was an angel, but it made me blush none-the-less.
I rested one foot on the railing and looked at Riku through the window. She was still looking at me. I just mouthed, "I love you" before plummiting down the hospital.
Riku
Although he didnt say it, I could read his lips. I blushed. I lied back down on the bed, suddenly cold, wishing Daisuke would come be with me. I was feeling much better all of a sudden, like the pain was sucked out of me. I was going to be alright, I was going to be able to see Daisuke once more.
Daisuke Niwa, the DNAngel...
Daisuke
I cut my wings off early, making me fall a good 15 feet before I crashed down to the ground with a loud thump. "Owww.." I whined, sitting back down and rubbing my feet. "Dai-chan, where have you been!"
"Huh?" I looked up to see Risa standing over me. "Oh, me? I was...uh...out...doing...things...that...uh...that I was doing, heh" I said desperately trying to come up with an excuse.
Risa just crossed her arms and looked at me in the eyes. "Uh huh" she said before walking off into my room, lying down on MY bed, watching her crappy life time channel, which made me feel gay when I watched it.
"Do you think Riku's ok Daisuke?" Risa asked me concerned.
"Of course she is, she'll be alright Risa." I said, trying to make her feel better. Risa just sighed and wiped her sore, red eyes.
"Don't worry about Riku, Risa. Riku is a strong girl, she'll make it thru." I said, patting Risa's head. All she did was smile back at me. "You should go back to your room now Risa, I think your friends are worried about you. They wouldn't want to see you all depressed now would they?" I said picking her up by the hand and leading her out the white door. We traveled for what seemed like an eternity, and she still didnt let go of my hand.
"Uh..Risa." I said looking down at our intwined hands.
"Ohmigod! Sorry!" She exclaimed, immediately pulling her hand away from mine embarrassed. It was then I noticed we made it to her room. "Cya tomorrow Risa." I said quietly to her.
"Yeah..." She said softly.
We waited a while before we gave eachother a quick hug, as good freinds. Then right in the middle of it, there was a blinding flash from the left.
"Agh! What the hell!" I shouted, letting go of Risa to guard my face with my hands.
"Haha! Wait till Older Harada see's these! She's gonna flip! Aghahahaah!"
"Damnit Takeshi! You twat!" Risa spat in disgust. After her remark, he quickly dashed out of sight camera in hand.
Takeshi
I was laughing so hard that I thought my lungs were going to explode. "Oh god...oh good...haa...aahh." I said before finally relaxing. "Let's see what we got here."I said excitedly, fumbling around the digi pad to open up the library. There was only one picture, and it was pitch black. "What the hell!" I said examining my camera. Then I noticed a mistake of amateur perportions, I left the cap on.
"AH FOR FU--"
Daisuke
"--SAKE!" Was all I could hear from the booming noise down the hall. "Ok..." I mumbled to myself. "Well...I guess I'll see you tomorrow...Dai." She said blushing, before running back into her room and slamming the door shut, several other girls were inside, concerened for her.
"Goodnight...Risa."
Next day
I awoke from a dream, a very nice dream. Nothing special, just everyone I know, in an average day. I'd sit down with Riku in the cable car. Risa starts whining about some guy that ran away from her. Satoshi reading that black book of his and Takeshi was rambling on about something that happend with Dark. It was nice.
My crimson eyes slowly opened revealing the plaster white ceiling. "Another familiar ceiling (stolen from Evangelion)" I sighed before swinging my legs over the edge of my bed and standing up, yawning as I did so.
The hot water woke me up, steam covered the floor and made the air musty. I could still see the mental image of the blood of Riku and Hiwatari on my hands, I had to forget about him, he tried to hurt her. He did hurt her.
As soon as I got dressed, I walked out to get some breakfast. But only seconds after I left my room, I was attacked by a mad mob of over fanatic girls. "aaghgH! Ah! Help! Hey-Hey! That's my arm! Ow!" I half-screamed at the squealing of all the girls trying to pull me in one direction at once.
"Niwa c'mon! You have to see something!" One screamed before they dragged my down the hallway.
"But I'm hhhhhuuunnnngggrrrryyyyyy." I whined as I gave up and walked with them. "Quit your whining!" One snapped at me before abruptly pulling me into the food court. There was a crowd of girls in a circle, constantly moving.
"Huh?" I asked as the girls that escorted me joined the crowd. The curiosity got the best of me and I slowly walked towards the back of the crowd. I couldnt see past all the exposed skin of the several half-naked girls that seem to be popular nowindays (Seriously I cant go without a day of being slapped because I make a remark that she looks like a prostitute.)
The screaming was so loud it rang in my ears, several questions from girls stung my ears. Then they all got quiet and moved out of my way, leaving me alone, the girls making an aisle. I looked around trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Then I finally looked infront of me.
"Dai-----Daisuke..."
"R...Riku..."
There she was, Riku, standing infront of me on crutches, but standing none the less. I felt so happy, I...I just wanted to cry. I just stood there looking into her bright hazel eyes. She just smiled at me, I just smiled at her. She was standing right there! I'm starting to ramble but she was standing right there!
She slowly started walking towards me, using her crutches, she limped towards me before she was only inches away. "...I'm back..." she whispered, her voice cracking in the middle of her words. That was all I could take, and I quickly wrapped my arms around her shoulders and pulled her close to me and started to weep on her shoulder. Through my fading voice I said, "Riku...I'm so glad that you're here with me."
"Ow."
"Oh! Oh! I'm sorry!" I said, realizing that I was hugging her to tightly. She was just wearing a white T-shirt and blue shorts, nothing fancy, casual, like nothing ever happend. We just stared at eachother, marveling at eachothers company. "Aaaawwwwww." I heard the girls from around us sigh, leaning on each other. "Would you mind?" I said, telling them to go away, I wanted Riku all to myself. The horn of the cruise ship shot out and we started going back home.
Riku and I walked together down the ship, and I noticed she was getting tired, so I lifted her up so I was carrying her, she started to protest but soon her face was a light blush as I carried her throughout the ship, crutches in the backpack that I brought. I soon got to her room and lightly opened the door...well more like a kick, but I opened it.
I lied her down on her bed and put her crutches just next to the bed. "Thank you Daisuke...for saving me...I was losing all hope, the will to live, I wanted to die...but then you showed up...your brighten my life."
"Y-Your welcome."
Riku smiled and just said happily, "Wanna watch some tv?"
"Sure." I simply said. I began to sit on the floor but Riku patted her hand next to her, telling me to lie down, so I did. We browsed through channels, she soon nuzzled against my shoulder, something I never thought I would ever see her do again. Soon, she was asleep. We were about seven hours away from Miami, so I decided to take a nap.
I turned off the tv and also fell asleep, resting my head on hers.
It wasn't long before she woke up and rolled ontop of me, and I awoke to her breath brush against my face. "Daisuke..."
"Huh?"
"I dont know how to repay you for what you did..."
"There's no nee--" (WARNING WARNING SEXUAL CONTENT AHEAD!)
"Yes there is! Daisuke...please touch me."
My brain almost melted from the amount of blood rushing to it. My face was burning up, I just lied there, dumbfounded.
She soon started to take off the T-shirt, but I pinned her arms away, stopping her. "Please Daisuke! Let me give myself to you!"
"Riku please, you dont need to do anything for me." I said concerningly, rolling her back to her spot. "I dont know what else to do, I have nothing to give, so I will give you my virginity."
"Riku! Now you're acting stupid! All I want is for you to be safe to be with me! Plus the fact that Risa's right on the other side of the bed." I said pointing to the other bed where Risa's eyes were about to explode as well as her ears at what she just heard. "Wha-Wha-Wha-Wha! How long have you been there!" Riku said, becoming more flustered than I've ever seen her
"The entire time..." Risa said weakly, mostly scared though.
Riku burried her face into the pillow. "I'm just a stupid whore!" She yelled slamming her head against the pillow. "No you're not." I said softly.
I moved myself next to her and whispered in her ear. "Someday, I will, don't worry, we will."
Riku's eyes widened at the remark, then smiled a broad smile, "How soon." She mumbled, smiling with mischiouf (cant spell it) on her face. "As soon as your legs are better, and we get to your house." I smiled back.
"I'll be waiting." She said the kissed me softly, and we engaged in a slowly gradualling makeout-session.
''HELLO! SISTER OVER HERE AND I CAN HEAR EVERYTHING YOU AND HIM ARE SAYING? ARE YOU EVEN PAYING ATTENTION TO ME? IF I SEE ANY HANKY PANKY IM CALLING THE TEACHER"
By the time that we got to Miami, it was already dark, and to make matters worse, the flight was delayed till tomorrow."OK YOU LITTLE ----- WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO STAY HERE ONE MORE DAY!"
"STOP THE YELLING!''
"SHUDDUP! NOW WE'VE PRACTICALLY RENTED OUT THE ENTIRE HOTEL! YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE TO BE IN GROUPS OF 4 IN A ROOM! BOYS WITH BOYS, GIRLS WITH GIRLS!"
"Whoot! Yuri!" I heard Takeshi shout from the back, instinctively whipping out his camera.
Luckily I only had to stay with 3 people, Takeshi and Tacun. Takeshi and Tacun we're pressing their ears against the wall to try and hear what was going on on the other side. "Oh grow up you guys!" I said angrily at them, throwing a pillow. "You wanna fight huh?" Takeshi said, tackling me and started whipping me with a pillow. Tacun did the same.
Some how, I escaped their grasp and leaped onto the bed, will kinda. I jumped on the bed, but then bounced off and hit the small table next to the bed, and crashed to the carpet at an awkward angle. The room then bursed with laughter.
"HEY! SHUT UP IN THERE! SOME OF US ARE TRYING TO SELL DRUGS!" We heard sensei yell a few rooms from ours. "Pedophile..." I heard Tacun whisper.
I just lied on the ground, since Tacun and Takeshi already took the beds. I just looked at the ceiling, the light illuminating it with a blue glow, it was so peaceful. Then I heard the door creak open, then stumbling, then I felt something warm brush up against me. I turned around to see Riku staring at me in the eyes, half-asleep. "Riku-san?" I said in awe as she pulled me closer to her.
I felt her breathing become slower and slower before I realized that she fell asleep, her arm thrown around my shoulder. I slipped my hand over her back, pulling her even closer, and we fell asleep in each other's arms in a warming embrace.
Riku
I awoke to a blinding flash, even through my closed eyes. I gasped in terror and tried to back up, but was unable to move for something was holding me. "PPFFFTTTHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA! OH MAN THESE ARE AWESOME PICTURES! PHOTOSHOP THEM WITH NO CLOTHES ON AND SELL THEM ON EBAY! PPFFFTTAHAHAAHAHAH!" The whiny voice of Takeshi still rang in my ears as I stumbled to my feet, my eyes slowly focused on the scene before me. Takeshi and Tacun were bawling from the laughter, the deafening noise boomed throughout the room, Daisuke sat up in an instant.
Oh no...we didn't...no! I screamed inside my head, but a quick check, seeing that I still had my clothes on, I calmed down. Those jerks were still laughing until I grabbed the brat's camera and swung it towards the ground with a crash.
"HEY! WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING? THAT WAS A DIGITAL NIKON 26G!" Takeshi whined as he picked up the peices of the shattered camera. Takeshi was still mourning over the camera when the door bell rang, Tacun was the first to answer it. "Hello Risa-san, how are you?" He said, being formal all of a sudden.
"Hi Naota-kun, I was wondering if you've seen Riku, she's been missing all mor--" Risa's gaze traveled around the room, until her gaze was fixed on mine, then to Daisuke who was right next to me. I grabbed his hand instinctively, instantly feeling it warm up.
Risa was really pissed as she stormed towards me, grabbed me by the ear, not even giving me time to get my crutches that I so desperately needed, and dragged me out the door. Without saying a word, she shut the door.
"What a bitch." Tacun whispered.
In the hallway. Riku's POV
"Risa! Let go of me!" I yelped, pulling her hand off my ear.
"What were you doing with Daisuke? Did he touch you?" Risa said angrily.
"What! Of course not!"
"Cause if he did, I'll kill him!" Risa shouted, shaking her weak fist infront of me.
"We didnt do anything last night Risa! God! Why does everyone always think that we have!''
"Well you've been going out for two years! There must be alot of sexual tension between you!"
"..." I could only be quiet. She was right, all the wet dreams that I've had about Daisuke, I just want to express my love to him in the most intimate way possible, I want to give him something that I can never returned, my virginity, I want him to have it, I want us to be together forever. (What did I say, realism)
"Well? Isnt there?"
"Yes alright! I want to have sex with Daisuke but he always refuses me because he wants that time to be special!" I shouted alot louder than I should have...
In the Bedroom. Daisukes POV
After hearing what she just said through that door, I immedately began to blush furiously. I started to sweat at Takeshi as he slowly turned his head towards mine with a sick grin on his face. "So...you and Riku huh? Where is it going to be, parking lot, movie theatre, bathroom, your house, her house, at school? My my Daisuke you've become quite the little pervert havent you?" He said mockingly.
"WHAT! NO! IT'S NOTHING LIKE THAT!" I screamed at him, tackiling him to the vomit brown carpet. He still had that smile on his face. Tacun started laughing even harder, almost fainting for the lack of air. Risa came into the room abrubtly and stopped the laughter in the room. She stood still and looked me in the eyes, which I was really getting creeped out about, thinking that she was going to hurt me. Instead she bowed, but never left her eyes off mine. "Gomen." She whispered before grabbing Riku's crutches and walked out the door. The door slammed shut, and Tacun began to cry from laughter...
MIAMI AIRPORT
The flight was almost leaving by the time the class got there, Riku and I were in the back, for I didnt want to hurt her. People were giving us odd looks until Riku shouted, "What the hell are you looking at!" and then they went back to their own business. I gave our tickets to the 'ticket lady' (I dont know what they're called! I've never been on a plane before!) and she just smiled at us and we walked down to the plane.
The coach seating seemed more comfortable this time, unlike the last one where I had cramps for it felt like I was sleeping on a stoned tiled floor. I stood up and helped Riku, seeing that she was having trouble sitting down. I picked her up and sat her down as gently as I could, receiving one of her cute blushes in return. I grabbed her crutches and put it in the gap between the roof.
I carefully stepped over her and sat down, I had the window seat, and luckily it was only a two seater. "Dai-chan..." Riku whispered.
"Yes? What is it Riku-chan?" She blushed when I called her Riku-chan.
"The doctor came in...the day before I left the hospital and said...well...he told me that Hiwatari-kun is dead..." The thought of Hiwatari made me angry, he was the cause of all my pain, no one hurts Riku to get to me.
"Oh..."
"Thank you"
"Huh? For what?"
"You saved me from him, I was awake the entire time, I saw you fight Hiwatari..."
"..." Oh god! She saw! I started to panic.
"I wont tell anyone, but I didnt think you had it in you. You protected me, like, some type of guardian angel. When I saw you crying when you held me in your arms, I...I didnt want to live anymore." She said while I absorbed every one of the words she said. "I just wanted to say thank you..." She whispered once more before I gave her a big hug, careful not to hurt her fragile body. Then we talked while we held hands, together again...
It was still snowing in Tokoyo, and I seemed to be the only one who forgot it was christmas! I didnt even get a present for Riku!
Fully decorated christmas trees stood tall throughout the airport, and I walked out to see everyones parents waiting for them to come out. "WELCOME HOME DAISUKE!" Emiko screeched as she put me in a big bear hug. "Mum..your crushing my lungs." I whispered. "Oh I'm sorry, it's just that when your gone so long I start to get paranoid." She twitched.
Riku's mother was hugging Riku and Risa at the same time, while Risa returned it, Riku's gaze was fixed on me. Ohmigod! Is she mad because I havent given a present to her yet? Oh no! "Crapzors" Shut the hell up!
"C'mon Daisuke, lets go home and get you a bowl of instant ramen."
"...Sure." I said, still looking at Riku who was staring at me, but then soon she gave me a warm smile which brightend my day, all I could do is give her a smile in return. Then I walked inside the black mustang and we drove home.
For the rest of the day I played Final Fantasy XII (haha bitches!) and got to level 51, which I was feeling really happy about. "DAISUKE! Do you want to go to the mall!" My mom yelled from downstairs. I almost forgot about the present.
"Hai!" Was my overly loud reply. I instantly got up, leaving the 42 inch tv on (haha mines 56!). She was already putting on her thick black leather jacket. I just slid into a thin blue hoodie jacket with dark blue jeans.
We walked outside, all the while I was trying to think of a present for Riku. I sat in the front seat and closed the door, Emiko slammed it. "So, Daisuke, what are you going to get Riku?"
''What?"
"Oh puh-leeze. I know you hate shopping, and the only reason that you would go is either 1 Final Fantasy XIII came out, or 2 for Riku. So, what are you getting her?"
"I...I dont know..." I flushed. Her reply was some murmurs about not knowing how to treat a lady before flooring it to the mall.
"Ok Daisuke, heres 8,000 dollars (I dont know how much that is in yen, so Im using dollars), get Riku something nice, k?"
"8,000! ARE YOU INSANE?"
"Daisuke, your an art thief. YOUR RICH! Get it thru your head." She said in her matter-of-fact tone of voice. Immediately afterwards, before I could say anything, she ran away like a lunatic, a wad of hundred dollar bills in her hands.
"My mother goes completely mental when she's in a mall..."
"Yeah, but she's a demon in the sack."
YOU BE QUIET! I still dont know why you havent left my body yet!
"I got all my stuff in, it was a pain in the ass to get the baby grand piano."
I walked inside the jewlery store, the multiple hundred dollar bills in my pocket made me feel powerful. "Hello, would you like to buy something?" The friendly women cashier asked me kindly.
"Uhm...yeah. I want something really nice for my...girlfriend." Just saying that made my face felling like it caught on fire.
"This is a jewlery store, our merchandise is quite--" She was interrupted when I slammed 8 grand on the table on the table.
"Can I see some of the things you have here?'' I asked her, smiling. With the wad of money on the table, she happily complied. She showed me some traditional rings, but I didnt want traditional, I wanted perfect. I found one that caught my eye.
It was a glistening red ruby ring, with small diamonds all around the ring. Between the gaps, were beautifully crafted dragons all connecting each other. "How about that one." I said pointing to the ring.
"Oh...I'm sorry, that one is very special and costs more then ten thousand dollars." She said to me.
"ACH! Why are you always such a scrooge?" Said an old elderly man as he walked to me.
"Now which one would you like son?"
"Uh..that one..." I mumbled shyly pointing to it.
"Oh, you have good taste." He said, taking it out of the container.
"This is one of a kind young man..." He said looking at the 8 thousand dollars on the table.
"Tell me, are you getting this for your girlfriend?" I shyly nodded my head.
"Tell you what, I'll give you this ring if you give me the money, and promise me you'll love her for the rest of your life."
The deal shocked me, I didnt think I could ever stop loving Riku, so I agreed. He gave me a warm, wrinkly smile. "Here ya go." He said, dropping the ring in my hand.
"B-But sir!"
"Oh please, I can do whatever I want." He said pulling out a bottle of gin from the counter. That fact scared me and I slowly walked out.
I ran around the mall, looking for Emiko. I searched for about ten minutes beofre actually looking at the directory. I looked at it and knew exactly where she was, Mervyns. I quickly ran away, wanting to despartely show her the ring I got.
I blindly ran around the corner and then UMPH! I ran into someone. I crashed to the ground, the ring box sliding across the floor before coming to a slow start. I smaked my head on the black floor, which was beginning to throb. "Ah! Oh gomen-nasai!" I said apologising, walking to pick up the bag they dropped.
"Daisuke?"
I looked up, it was Riku, she didnt have crutches or a cast on. "AH! RIKU! UH-HI WHAT-WHAT'S GOIN ON HEHEEHEHEHEHEAHHAHAHAH!" I said, blocking the view of the ring box. "What are you doing here?" She asked me blushing furiously.
"Oh, you know, walking around, ahaheheh." I forced a laugh.
"But..you hate shopping." Risa added, who I just noticed was standing next to her. I pocketed the ring and helped pick up the bag Riku dropped.
"Huh?" I said.
"NONONONONONONONO! DONT LOOK!'' Riku cried, on the floor was a teddy bear who was holding a bright red heart. On the heart it said Riku on the top and Daisuke on the bottom with an arrow through the names. I blushed more than I thought was humanly possible. She quickly picked it up and hid it behind her back, blushing madly, head looking towards the ground.
"Look Daisuke, it's an hour till Christmas, so if you're going to get Riku a present, you should get it." Risa said madly.
"I...uh...already did.'' I mumbled.
"Well! Exchange the gifts!" She said, some reason getting really pissed off.
"Uh...ok." I flushed, pulling out the ring box. Riku pulled out the teddy bear, neither of us had the urge to look at eachother. Until she finally looked at the box which I held out infront of her. She blushed even more.
"T-Thank you Dai-chan..." She mumbled shyly.
''T-Thank you R-Riku-chan." I also mumbled, picking up the teddy bear gently, it meant alot to me.
Riku slowly opened the box, Risa behind her shouting, "LEMME SEE! OOOHHH LEMME SEE!"
Riku finally opened the box and suddenly her and her sister's eyes went wide. Risa whispered quietly, "Oh my god..." while Riku stood there in astonishment. "I-Is this for me..." Riku stuttered, on the verge of breaking out into tears. I could only nod for a reply.
"T-Thank you..thank you so much.." She cried before she englufed me in her arms, rocking me gently. I folded my arms around her gently, and pulled her closer.
I pulled myself back and rested my forehead on hers and smiled as I said. "Merry christmas Riku-chan." Then I kissed her soft lips as she cooed. And we shared a passoniate embrace.
