Anything But Mine
And I don't see how you
Michiru was a little confused when she woke up the next morning, but then blushed when she remembered what had happened last night when she and Haruka had arrived at their apartment. Michiru sat up to realize that Haruka wasn't there. So Michiru got up, threw on one of Haruka's shirts, and left the room.
"Why couldn't you have just left him there?" Michiru heard Haruka say. It was then she knew why Haruka didn't stay with her.
Michiru walked over to the living room and sat down on the couch next to her fiancée. Michiru smiled. She was happy.
"What are you smiling about?" Haruka asked.
"Nothing." Michiru stated. "Are you done talking to Ami?"
"Yeah, she said something about having to go."
"I see." Michiru laid her head on Haruka's shoulder. "So Ivan is in the hospital?"
"Yeah, although I would have been just fine with leaving him on the beach."
"So…we should probably head over to my parents house to explain what happened."
"That's fine. Do you want to go now?" Haruka asked.
"Um, yeah, I think we should. I mean my parents are probably really worried about me."
"Ok. Then we go."
Haruka and Michiru spent the next two hours getting ready to leave. Then when they were finally ready, the two of them left to begin the three hour drive.
Most of the drive had been in silence. Both Haruka and Michiru were incredibly nervous about what might happen. Occasionally, Haruka would look at Michiru. Haruka cared what Michiru's parents thought about this. She wasn't going to hide anything from them, which was different from what she originally planned.
"Um, Michi?" Haruka asked as she got on the off ramp.
"Yeah?"
"What if your parents hate me?" Haruka whispered. She slowed the car down to a stop and said, "I don't want you to hate your parents because of me."
Michiru laid her head on Haruka's right shoulder and said, "That's not going to happen. I think that my parents will understand."
"Good."
"Ruka?"
"What?"
"You do know that you're heading in the wrong direction, right?" Michiru sweetly asked.
"What! Isn't this the way to your house?"
"Nope."
"Then where is it?" Haruka felt really embarrassed.
"A couple more miles." Michiru said with a big smile on her face. "I could just tell you where to go."
"That would be nice."
They spent the next forty minutes trying to make their way to Michiru's house. It wouldn't have taken so long, but Michiru kept saying to turn when Haruka would cross the street that they needed.
"I can't believe I'm back home again." Michiru stated. "It feels a little weird."
"Yeah, I would think." Haruka said as she pulled to the curb and parked the car. "Michi, are we sure about this?"
Michiru nodded. "Yep, we are."
"Ok."
They both got out of the car and walked towards the front door. Haruka squeezed Michiru's hand in comfort. Michiru rang the doorbell and about a minute later the door opened.
"Michiru!" A lady hugged Michiru.
"Hi mom."
"What are you doing here?" Michiru's mother, Miyuki asked. "Who's your friend?"
"Good afternoon. I'm Haruka Tenoh." Haruka said as she shook Miyuki's hand. "I'm Michiru's roommate and fiancée."
Miyuki wasn't shocked. "Well, I'm glad to know that this is where you went."
"How did you know?" Michiru asked.
"Mother's intuition and besides who else would make you leave your own wedding."
Michiru smiled. "I guess you're right."
"Come on in."
Haruka followed the two women into the house. She couldn't get over how big it was. Haruka didn't know how Michiru could handle the apartment since it seemed like a closet compared to this.
"Ruka?" Michiru asked as she looked at Haruka. She loved the shocked look that her fiancée had on her face.
"What?"
"Are you ok?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Just wondering."
"Oh, I've just never been inside a house this big before."
"Ok."
They sat down on the couch. "Mom how was the rest of the wedding?" Michiru asked.
"It was all right." Miyuki said as she sat down in the blue recliner. "It was weird because Ivan wasn't there either."
"Apparently he followed Ami and Michiru." Haruka said.
"Oh, I see." Miyuki smiled. She had to admit that her daughter did make the right choice in not marrying Ivan, but she also had to admit that her daughter and Haruka looked cute together. "So you're Michiru's roommate?"
Haruka nodded. "Yeah, I am."
"So then you were the one that captured my daughter's heart?"
"I guess." Haruka was extremely shy.
"Well that's good."
"Michiru, what are you doing here?" a voice asked from behind. Michiru's father, Akio, was standing behind them.
"Daddy!" Michiru exclaimed as she hugged him. "I'm here because I thought you might be worried about me and I have something to tell you."
"Really?" Akio asked. "What is it?"
"I'm getting married again." Michiru said as she held out her left hand to Haruka. "I'm going to marry Haruka Tenoh, my roommate and fiancée."
"What!"
"Good afternoon Mr. Kaioh." Haruka nicely said.
"So you're the reason that my daughter didn't marry Ivan."
"Yes, I am." Haruka stated. "But I love your daughter more then anything in the world."
"You can't love her. You are not to marry this man Michiru!"
"Daddy!" Michiru was shocked.
"Mr. Kaioh, I'm not a man."
"Then you're a girl?" Akio was in shock. He couldn't believe this.
"Yep, I am." Haruka said trying so hard not to laugh.
"Michiru, you are forbidden to marry anyone but Ivan."
"Akio!" Miyuki barked. "Now are daughter loves this woman with all her heart. The only reason she was going to marry Ivan was to make you happy, but her heart won over her brain."
"I don't care!"
Michiru blinked back tears. She couldn't believe that her father was acting like this. "I love Haruka. I really do."
"That doesn't matter. You need to marry someone who will be able to buy you expensive things. If you decide to marry this this," Akio said as he pointed to Haruka, "then you will not be welcome in my house and you will no longer be my daughter."
Michiru started to cry. She couldn't believe what her father had said. "I ch-chose to marry Ha-ruka."
Haruka turned to look at Michiru. "No! Don't do that. I don't want to come in between your family."
"I want to marry you."
"Then get out!" Akio demanded.
Michiru nodded and turned around to leave. She couldn't believe that her mother, who had been so supportive of her liking Haruka, had just stood there and let her father say those awful things.
Haruka resisted the urge to yell at him, and walked Michiru back out to the car. Haruka didn't understand why Michiru's father would do this and why Michiru's mother went along with it.
When they got to the car, Michiru started to cry. It broke Haruka's heart because she knew that this was all her fault.
"Why?"
"Huh?" Haruka asked as she started the car.
"Wh…why?"
"I don't know. I just wish that they would have been supportive of us."
"But my mother was!" Michiru barked.
Haruka looked at Michiru and said, "I know your mother was and I don't know why she would do this. But there has to be a reason."
"What if it's because they hate me?"
Haruka shook her head. "That isn't it. They couldn't hate you."
"But my father does…"
"No, Michiru he doesn't!" Haruka said as she pulled the car over to the side of the road. "He doesn't hate you."
"Yes, he does!" Michiru growled.
Haruka looked at Michiru before wrapping her arms around her. "He doesn't hate you because you're his daughter. He's just confused and upset. But he'll come around."
"You sure?" Michiru sniffled.
"Yeah, I'm sure." Haruka couldn't believe that she had said that because she didn't really know if that was going to happen or not. But she didn't really care, because it gave Michiru hope. "So how about we go back home and not worry about this, okay?"
"Ok."
Haruka kissed Michiru before she started to drive again. After about a half hour of crying, Michiru had fallen asleep with her head on Haruka's right shoulder. It didn't matter what anyone thought, as long as they were happy.
