Chapter 4- Emotions flood back
Ichigo and Satsuki practiced their hardest and Ichigo didn't let her feelings overwhelm her. She found out that in their match they had to create plated desserts. Their experience in the cake grand prix were beneficial but thinking back those experience were scary but exciting. Even one mistake could have sent them home, but they could always count on each other; Kashino, Satsuki and Andou of course that was until Kashino was there.
If only he had told her, that he was engaged to a women, she could not in a single way measure up to. She wouldn't be so embarrassed, why had she thought he would wait for her? Despite that she had to admit his fiancé was amazing, not only was she beautiful, smart and lovable. Doubt filled her heart every time she thought about it.
Satsuki was just as shocked! He couldn't believe Kashino had changed so much, he had changed for the better. Satsuki and Kashino had never gotten along but they were friends, how could he not have told them that he was engaged? He knew that Ichigo had beyond surprised, she was shocked but that night she didn't cry herself to sleep. He comforted her every time he saw doubt fill her eyes. He knew he had better stop thinking about this, he knew Ichigo was serious about winning.
They worked hard in the one hour of practice they squeezed in at 5 in the morning. They had their normal morning but after that it was absolutely chaotic. Since this was a charity event for children in need all of the press was involved. Despite Ichigo's begging, she was still dragged along and forced to speak on behalf of St Marie's. She was most astonished to see how easily and quickly she had dealt with the press by simply say a few earnest words. Her honest streak had helped immensely.
Satsuki at Ichigo with love burning in his heart her smiling at him she didn't notice. She didn't see how his eyes were staring adoringly at her. At that bitter moment he realised her eyes only looked for Kashino's affection. He just hoped then event ended soon, he checked his watch, 'at this moment we would reach the hotel at lunch time' thought Satsuki.
As the interview ended uneventfully they were taken back to the hotel. There Ichigo noticed the bitterness in Satsuki's eyes and reassured him that she was perfectly happy with him though he needed more convincing which she gladly provided. As Satsuki snapped out of his thoughts when Kashino sat down next to him on the lunch table. Startled Satsuki almost fell of his chair but there he was it was no illusion. His blond hair, auburn eyes which were shinning with passion and his boyish grin plaster on his face. It was Kashino.
Ichigo sat there with shock coursing through her entire being. It was Kashino. She couldn't stop staring at Kashino's wild grin, was he happy to see her? Several question sored in and out of her mind. She was about to speak but Satsuki beat her to it. "Kashino, hey, where is your fiancé?" enquired Satsuki. Ichigo's smile faltered but did not fade, she continued looking at Kashino until she felt nothing. Nothing but bitterness in her heart for Kashino for betraying her. She focused back on the present as memories threatened to overwhelm her. She finished her food and asked politely if she could have time with Satsuki but Kashino didn't go without teasing Ichigo but in that moment she felt free from Kashino and everything holding her back, that was until he mention their past. The angry and hurt came rushing back to her body, Kashino looked up to see her reaction and was startled at the dangerous flash in her eyes. Kashino felt a bubble of sadness grow in him he wanted to be friends again but Ichigo had welcomed him but then when he mentioned anything about their past all he saw was anger in her eyes. He got up and finally left them alone. Ichigo collapsed into Satsuki's arms she was so tired, tired of not being over Kashino! They went back to the practice room to work their hearts content. She was not going to let this get in her way to victory.
