Thanks to everyone who reviewed! You know who you are! In a nice way of course, I don't wanna be all evil like Krad.
Krad: Hey!
Anyway…here's chapter 4! I think I'm gonna give it a title…
Chapter 4: Kisses and Jealousy
The
play was a success. "Ice and Snow: Dark version" won 1st
place. I thought I did okay. I stumbled one time but that's all.
Christmas Eve came. I walked under the Big Tree.
5 minutes
later...
"Missed me?" a suave voice
asked.
"Hey...Dark." My voice grew smaller. Dark looked
so hot in that outfit. A white striped jacket with black jeans.
"Come
on," he invited. "Let's go t-"
"It's snowing!"
I squealed interrupting him.
He looked at me. "You seem to
love the snow."
"It's beautiful don't you think? The way
the snow falls on your skin and melts as if nothing was there? You
know, Grandma Rika told me that whenever it snowed, she would think
of her first love because it started to snow when she met him like it
was fate or something. That's really romantic. Love at first
sight."
"Too clean."
"Aw come on. Don't you
think that's sweet?"
Dark looked towards the sky. He looked a
bit sad.
"You all right?" He looked back towards me and
smiled.
"Just thinking. I'm fine now."
I stared
deeply into Dark's eyes. I never realized how beautiful and luring
they were. "No you're not. Something's bothering you."
"I'm
okay, really."
"Dark...fine. But if you ever want to say
anything...I'll be right here all right."
"Of course. I
want to show you a place okay?"
"Where?"
He just
smirked. "Wiz!" Two wings grew behind him. Dark picked me
up bridal style and flew in the air. My stomach did back flips.
"You
look pale," he noticed.
"I...hate the feeling of
adrenaline," I confessed. "It scres the crap out of me
me."
"Like this?" Dark started flying downward
really quickly.
"Dark!" I clutched him harder. He
steadied himself and continued.
"Jeez. Calm down."
"Don't
ever do that again!"
"Ok, ok."
"Anyway,
where are we going?"
"A place you liked."
"Heh?"
"Just
kidding."
We landed on the grass of windmill place.
"Why
are we here?" I asked.
"It's calming," Dark
answered.
I stared at the white windmills turning in the wind. At
the same time, the snow continued to fall. It's a beautiful sight. I
suddenly rezlized I felt cold. I didn't predict the snow to fall. I
couldn't stop myself from shivering. Two warm hands wrapped around
me.
"Cold?" Dark wondered.
"Thanks. This place
is beautiful."
"So are you."
He thinks I'm
beautiful! But I feel like I'm so ugly. Dark turned me around and met
my lips with his. I savoured his touch. It felt sweet and loving. I
wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer down, depening
the kiss. His hands caressed my back. I pulled back immediately
turning around.
"Oh my god." I started walking no
where.
"Miro..."
"No. W-we shouldn't b-be doing
this. I-It's n-not right. You're Risa's b...boyfriend."
"I'm
not. All I did was go out with her."
"I-no! I'm not
going to be one of those girls you date and then dump 'cause you're
bored."
Dark stood in front of me. "You're not. You're
special."
"That's probably what you say to all of
them."
He reached into his pocket and held something in a
closed fist. "Close your eyes."
"Why?"
"Just
do it."
I shut my eyelids. Something cold fell on my
neck.
"Open."
I looked at my neck to see my necklace!
The same chain all fixed.
"You didn't have to fix it," I
protested.
"You love it and it's precious to you."
I
hugged him tightly then kissed him lightly on the lips. "Thank
you so much! I'm so sorry I said all those nasty things about
you."
He answered by replying, "Merry Christmas."
I
flipped through my book.
"You have interesting tastes in
books," Dark's cool voice remarked.
"This book was
boring," I retorted. I'd gotten used to Dark's random showups.
It's January, a month after he kissed me.
He leaned against the
wall. "Oh? Why are you reading it?"
"A book I found
that I have not read. It kept me interest until the 2nd page. Then I
got bored."
Dark sat next to me on the couch. He put one arm
around me and used the other to tilt my chin so we could kiss. Before
I could do or say anything, he was already on top of me tossing my
shirt on the floor. If sensible Miro was in, I would have pushed him
off. But right now, a different Miro was in and she's not being all
sensible.
Dark pried my teeth opened with his tongue and explored
the walls of my mouth. His hands roamed around my body and gently
touched the exposed skin. Dark kissed my neck gently and traveled up
to my ear.
"Oh god Dark," I moaned.
I really don't
know what happened. First I was about to have sex with a phantom
thief and next I'm remembering all those stupid health classes.
"Dark
stop..." I said softly. He continued to kiss around my neck.
"Stop...really...Dark!"
Dark sat up.
"What now?"
Dark grumbled.
"No, I-I can't. I'm only 14. I-It doesn't
f-feel right."
"So?"
"What is your problem?
I'm 14! Fourteen!"
"I thought you liked me! If
you like someone you would give yourself to them."
"You
shouldn't be talking!"
"What are you talking
about?"
"What about Risa huh? Did you break up with her
yet? I pretty sure just this morning, she was droning on and on about
how you taken her on a date to Azumano Joyland."
That got
Dark. He stood up. "I better leave."
Now that got
me. "No..." I pleaded. "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have
said that. It's your choice if you want to break up with her or
not."
"I'm going to okay? Someday...she just takes
things too seriously."
"I noticed. There once was a time
when she..." And so we ended up talking for the rest of the
night. Dark eventually went and I fell asleep.
I stood
amongst all those fan girls waiting for Dark. I'm just like everyone
else, trying to catch a glimpse of Dark. But I have something else in
mind.
"Excuse me sir," I said to the nearest
policeman.
"I'm sorry miss but I'll have to ask you to go
back," he ordered.
"But I left my purse in the museum
and there's something really important in there."
"I
guess you'll have to wait. Now please go back."
"No, I
relaly need my purse."
"It's too dangerous for you
there."
"Why? Dark's gonna kidnap me and torture me to
death? Honestly, do you think a playboy like him is going to do
that?"
"You have no right to-"
"Is there a
problem here?" a guy voice said from behind me.
"Hiwatari
kun!" I smiled. Damn...
"C-commander," the officer
saluted. "No of course n-not. Everything's fine."
Hiwatari
kun gave him blank face as usual.
"Why is Nataka san doing
here then?" he questioned.
"You k-know
her?"
"Obiviously," I muttered. "I'm here to
retrieve my purse and he won't let me."
Hiwatari stared at me
then he beckoned, "Follow me."
I went after him into the
building.
"Where did you leave it?" he
asked.
"Somewhere...I really don't remember."
"I'll
give you 15 minutes, then you have to come back here."
"Fair
enough." I disappeared down the hall with my flashlight.
My
watch flashed 10 pm. I waited in the dark corner of the room. A
figure appeared next to the painting and shouts could be heard. Dark
did his work with getting the painting and came over to me.
"I
thought you wouldn't make it," he whispered kissing me.
"You're
sweet..." I murmured sarcastically.
"How much
longer?"
"5 more minutes until Hiwatari kun
comes."
"Good...that means we have 10 minutes."
"What?
Why?"
"I want to see the commander's expression when he
sees us."
"But the police."
"To them, Dark
has already left."
"Smart."
Dark pushed me
against the wall and started kissing me more fiercely. His tongue
demanded entrance and I abided his wishes. A hand went under my shirt
and started stroking around my torso.
"Dark," a cold
voice echoed around the room. "I know you're here."
"Dark..."
My voice was muffled by the kiss. A light shined on us and Dark let
go.
"Hello to you too Commander," he mocked.
Something
loomed in Hiwatari kun's eyes as he looked at me. What is it? I
couldn't decipher it. It wasn't his usual blank unfeeling eyes. They
had an hint of emotion in it. What is it?
"You know the way
out," Hiwatari kun said to me. "I'll deal with
Dark."
"I...ok..." I ran out the door.
I heard,
"You're gonna deal with me?"
"I just had to get her
away from me before..." I didn't hear the rest.
It wasn't
until I reached my house, opened the gates, greeted by servants,
climbed up the stairway, and jumped on my bed that I realized what I
saw in Hiwatari kun's eyes.
Jealousy.
