Sooo. another chapter. Sorry that this one took a long time to send out...
Chapter 5- Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me -
Kyo walks out of the room where Yukimura had been since he was attacked. Nobunaga had sliced his chest, arms, and legs and left Yukimura to die. He was doing better now, but still forced to stay in the care of the hospital. The elevator door closes and Kyo stands alone. Alone. It was Christmas, the day just three days before was to be his wedding, to Yuya Shiina, who now sat in a coma, being judged by the fates. Of course if it weren't for his arrogance, or sexual desires for Sakuya, he and Yuya might have actually tied the knot. Sakuya, who also sat in the hospital, asked for Kyo not to see her. And so Kyo was alone. The door opens after descending 5 floors and Kyo walks out of the hospital and to his car. A gust of wind blows from behind him, but like most things that have happened since reading Nobunaga's note, it was forgotten in an instant. He reaches site of car when he notices someone familiar. Mahiro was in the middle of stepping into her car when Kyo calls her name. She swings her head around, her beautiful black hair swings around her face, and her eyes sparkled like the stars. Why was Kyo thinking this? She walks toward him, happy to see him, and smiles. He extends his arms and feels her warm embrace. She lifts her head and he looks at her eyes. Don't kiss her. Don't kiss her. Wait, why was Kyo thinking this. Kyo didn't understand, he thought he loved Yuya, he thought he loved Sakuya. Did he never really get over Mahiro? Sure they had a relationship awhile back, sure they were serious, but that was then. People change, he and Mahiro. He lets go of her at last and asks her what she's doing for Christmas.
"To be honest, I haven't really thought about it. Probably just spending the night working on designs for next season." Mahiro was both the main model and designer for a clothing company that she owned. "Why…what are you doing?"
"No, nothing. I was just wondering if you weren't doing anything you could come by my place. Not be…alone for Christmas."
Mahiro smiles. "Actually Kyo, that sounds really good right now. I have my car here, so I'll meet you at your place." She turns around and walks to her car. It didn't matter why he was thinking or feeling what he was, because for the first time…in a long time, Kyo was truly…happy.
The door to his house opens and Kyo turns on the lights. The house wasn't extremely decorated, but garland was up on the door frames and there was a tree. Mahiro takes off her coat and places it in the closet. She rubs her arms and leans against the island in his kitchen.
"Are you hungry?" Kyo asks her.
She smiles. "You? Cook?"
"I happen to be a very good cook." He says trying to hold back a smile and failing.
"Since when? Last time you tried to cook for me was out two year anniversary. Remember the lasagna? Yeah, the one I needed to redo my kitchen because of it."
"Okay your stove was pissing me off…"
"So you beat it with a broom stick? Here, I'll cook some sauce, and you make pasta. I trust you can't screw THAT up."
To be honest Kyo didn't care, as long as she was there. Cooking dinner went by in a blur of laughing and smiling at each other. Even dinner to Kyo didn't matter.
"You not hungry?" asks Mahiro pointing to his plate he didn't touch.
"I was thinking…"
"About?"
"Us."
She puts down her fork.
"What did go wrong with us, Mahiro?"
"We should clean up dinner" She says as she takes her dish and places it in the sink. After placing the left-overs in containers and into the fridge, Kyo leans against the counter. Mahiro yawns, it was 10:30 already, but it was a long day.
"You must tired." Says Kyo placing his hands on her shoulders. "You can rest in my bed."
"Sure."
Kyo leads her to his bedroom and sits her on his bed. She moves over to the middle of the bed and sits, leaning against the backboard. Kyo sits down next to her and takes a strand of her hair in his hand.
"I remember…" he says while lightly placing another strand in his hand. "That you used to tell me to play with your hair, and you'd fall asleep in my arms."
She sits up, making the hair fall out of his hands, and looks at his eyes. Really looks. Don't kiss her. She leans in closer to him and places her lips on his. Too late. He opens his mouth and kisses her back. She stops him from kissing again.
"Just hold me…"
She moves next to him and places her head on his chest. He moves his arm around her back and she closes her eyes. She falls asleep in a matter of minutes, but Kyo won't until late in the night. He just looked, really looked, at what he had. He had Mahiro, someone that loved him, and he had someone he found that he really…truly loved as well.
