Chapter 13: Awakening
Michiru open her eyes before sunrise, she felt Haruka holding her tight, Michiru pressed her back against her and smile, she loved these awakenings but she knew she had to wake her lover already, yesterday Nana almost cought them, they could not afford that risk, she turn around and place her head in Haruka's soft neck kissing it, Haruka slowly woke up and bring her closer to her.
"Good Morning"
"No, Ruka stop it" Haruka let her fingers played along in Michiru's breasts, the smaller girls shiver and try to remember why she woke up the blonde in the first place. "You have to leave now"
"I don't want to, It's so warm and cozy here..."Haruka used a playful tone and pretended to be asleep while her hands let themselves explore a little lower.
"No" Michiru left the bed before Haruka might convince her again (not that it was hard to convince her) "I'll see you in an hour, now go"
"There's not even light yet, let me stay five more minutes!"
Michiru turn to look at Haruka still laid in bed just covered by parts with the soft white sheet and she found her pretty inviting, so she nodded and get back to bed. "Five minutes"
"Sure..."
---------------------o--------------------o------------------------
30 minutes later Michiru had to run to the dinning room and look innocent, her father was already half the way through his breakfast and Nana sent her one of those killer looks. "She knows... damn Haruka" "Morning daddy"
"Morning little fish, did you had a good night sleep?"
"Good night, yes. Sleep? Not that much..." "Sure, what's this?" Michiru found a white envelope on her plate and open it. It was a Hanzo's letter...
My Dearest Michiru:
I write this lines just to remember you
that I'm thinking of you.
I'll be home in a week
Take good Care of yourself
Love
Hanzo
Michiru lost her appetite the least she wanted to remember now was that Haruka would be gone in a week and she'll be trapped in the island with Hanzo, she tried her best to keep herself from crying and placed the card aside.
"Any news from Hanzo dear?"
"He'll be back in a week" "Where did the time go? Has it been two weeks already? How come time flies when I'm in her arms and seems to stop when I'm not...don't think of it you knew it'll come to an end." "What are you saying dad?"
"I asked if you were feeling fine Michi you look a bit ill"
"I'm dying..." "Maybe I got the flu I think I should go lie down"
"Ok, I'll tell Nana to bring you a tea"
Michiru went upstairs and laid on her bed, she was in no mood for going out today, she didn't wanted to see Haruka and remember she would be gone in just a few days that seem like seconds. The last weeks went flying to them, they have been so wrapped in this vortex of happiness and passion that they never saw the end of this dream coming, they spent together every day and now every night, Haruka climbed through her window every night after dinner and stayed with her till the sun came out; it was risky, reckless and absolutely romantic. Sex was good there was no doubt about it but it was more than that, sometimes they just stay all the time talking, Haruka told her about her dreams, her life in the city how she loved to race cars and college, everything, Michiru in return shared her passions, tales, poems... Michiru felt Haruka was a missing part she had lived all this years without and now she was crushed... a tear run down her blue eyes and another one came to seek that one and so on...
Knock, knock
"Come in" Maeve came in the room holding a tray with a tea service, Michiru smiled at her."Place it there, thanks, before you go can I ask you a favor?"
"Sure Miss"
Michiru stand up and wrote a quick note. "Take this to Zen"
The girl nodded and left, Michiru get back in bed and back into crying.
-----------------------o-----------------------o----------------
"Lucky the eye who finally sees you Tenoh!"
"Morning Zen why are you up so early?"
"To catch you up, you're like the wind lately everyone feels you once in a while but no one catches you"
"Don't exagerate I saw you last night during dinner"
"And then you dissapear...literally, where were you last night? I went seek you to your room and you were gone"
Haruka blushed and paid a lot of attention to her breakfast. "A gentleman never tells"
"Climbing Michiru's window again? Someone is going to find out Haruka you're playing with fire."
"Shut up Zen , someone could hear you"
"That Michiru ate your brain, aren't you tired? You stay with her all day long and all night long as it seems"
"That's the proof that states you don't know what love is, the days are short, the nights are just seconds, I can't have enough of her..."
"Man is she that good?"
"It is not just sex..." Haruka smirked "Although I can't complain, she's more than that she's everything I ever seeked for..."
"Gosh, love is in the air! Poor Hanzo he'll be heartbroken..."
"Don't bring that up"
"Well he'll be here to rescue Michiru after we left, perhaps that'll be his shot"
Haruka placed her coffee looking serious. "She's not a fling"
"Don't get mad, but what are you going to do then? You belong in Tokyo you're a city animal"
"I'll bring her with me"
Zen looked at Haruka as if she saw her dressed in a tutu. "You are not serious"
"I'll never joke about something like that" A maid came in a minute later holding a note, she slipped it to Zen and left.
Zen read the few lines and saw Haruka who seemed interest in the little note. "It's from Michiru she says she won't see you today, that she'll catch on you 'some other time' to be precise..."
--------------------------------o--------------------------o---------------------
"Tanaka-san what are you doing here? Want some breakfast?"
"No thanks Kaioh, it'll be a short visit"
"You sound serious, what is it?"
"It's about Michiru"
"Oh so you heard about her dating the Tenoh guy"
"You knew? And you're ok with it? I though we agreed..."
"We do Tanaka but what do you want me to do? She's young and well this might sound weird to you but this would serve her good, you need to walk before running, she'll grow out of this expierence when Hanzo gets back I'm sure Michiru would see him with other eyes, she'll blossom..."
"I'm not so sure"
"Trust me, besides the summer is ending along with this summer fling"
"I hope you're right Sechiru I really do..."
-----------------------------o--------------------------o------------------------
Michiru rolled on her empty and now so cold bed to hide her eyes from the light, she was tired and sad, not even the sound of the waves sooth her sorrows this time, she covered her face with a pillow and tried to get some sleep. She managed to take a little nap when a familiar touch woke her up, she then realized Haruka was holding her.
"Do you feel sick Michi?" Michiru felt an emptyness on her stomach at the hearing of that voice who melt her insides; she just shook her head. "Why are you in bed Michi?" Again she didn't answer. "Look at me" Michiru rolled and face her, Haruka touched her face gently. "Why have you been crying?"
Michiru noticed Haruka was alarmed, angry. "I'm fine"
"No you are not, who made you cry princess, tell me and I'll kill him" Michiru bit her lip and lowered her eyes. "What?"
"I don't want to talk about it, I'll see you tomorrow, I promise" Haruka felt all of the sudeden lonely and hurted, why was Michiru not talking to her?
"Have you stop loving me so soon?" Michiru looked at her disturbed.
"Why would you say that? Of course not"
"Then why are you doing this? Kicking me away, tell me why are you crying"
Michiru look down, she could say this but not face her. "Cause you'll be gone and I'll be here alone..." Her voice break, Michiru hated to be weak, why was Haruka so close to her heart?
Haruka smiled and lift Michiru's face to kiss her. "That's all?"
"Do you think it's a little thing?"
"No but I'm not worried"
"Mh?"
"Cause when I get back to Tokyo you'll come with me..."
(Is that so? Do you think that'll happen? What would Michiru do? And her father? And Hanzo? And her beloved sea? Oh you want to find out? review!)
