~flashback after Nozomi received her mother's call about the engagement~

In a spacious field covered with healthy green bermuda grasses lies a gigantic tree at the middle of the field.

"Elicchi~" Nozomi chirped as she walked towards the blonde who was sitting below the tree. Today's windy but not that too windy,the wind is just right and a lot more romantic than yesterday.

The blonde looked up as the purple-haired approached her,she then smiled and stood up,looking down at her,"Hey.." Judging by the tone of her voice,she seems to be so soft towards the purple-haired.

"Sorry I was a little late." Nozomi giggled.

"No no,it's fine." The blonde smiled brighter,her heart began pounding so fast and loud,like it was gonna explode anytime now...

"So what song do you think we should sing together today?" Nozomi asked,her eyes were sparkling.

The blonde hummed and looked at the skies,"I thought of one though."

Nozomi blinked,"Really? What is it?" her turquoise eyes stared at Eli's blue ones.

Eli then suddenly and gently held Nozomi's waist and pulled her closer into an embrace,making the purple-haired's eyes widen.

"E-Elicchi!"

"I love you.." The blonde confessed and held her tighter.

Nozomi froze. She couldn't believe of what she just heard.

Eli just kept her hold on her,"I have loved you ever since..." Her voice was filled with so much love and gentleness like she was trying to soothe the angry Nozomi.

Nozomi's eyes softened,"Elicchi.." She then slowly embraced her back,"We can't..." And she could feel that sharp pain in her chest,it hurts that she wanted to cry.

The blonde looked down at her as she let go from the hug,"Why not?" Her chest began to feel such nervousness.

Nozomi then looked up at the blonde,"I'm getting married."

Eli's eyes widened,"...what?"

The purple-haired looked down sadly,"After I had a night over at your house, I received a call from my mother...I'm meeting this man whom I will marry.."

The blonde never knew what to react about this, she felt...pain and sadness and angry..

"Nozomi..."

"I-I'm sorry...I-I should probably go.." Nozomi then walked around the blonde.

"WAIT!" The blonde suddenly turned and held her hand, stopping the purple-haired in her tracks. Nozomi looked over her shoulder with a tear falling from the corner of her eye.

"Nozomi.." Eli smiled sadly,"I will still love you, I won't gonna let that man have you...I will do everything just to have you. No buts..I will still court you."

The purple-haired's eyes widened and they softened again with a smile,"Please..."

That word motivated Eli enough and she pulled the other close to a tight hug,"I promise.."

~End of flashback~

"Hoooh so you have already answered her feelings?" Nico asked Nozomi one day when they were back in the clothes shop. Nozomi was arranging clothes that hung around and then faced the raven-haired with a nod,"Yes." "Are you sure about this? You don't want to hurt her right?" Nico's eyes softened and Nozomi darted her eyes down with her hands clasped together,"I love her too you know." "But this is not gonna last for forever you know."

And Nico's words looked like nails and knives that stabbed the purple-haired's heart but she knew that she had to accept it so she just nodded with a sad smile,"I want to have a child with her...And I love her so much that I only want her and nobody else...I want her to want me only also and nobody else..."

Nico softly smiles,"I understand.."

"What about you and Maki? Any news about the wedding?" Nozomi's saddened smile turned into a teasing one, making Nico blush and flails her arms up in the air,"W-We don't have a schedule yet!" Nozomi giggled and the raven-haired blinked when she noticed something,"Hey, is it just me or you looked a little thin?" The purple-haired blinked and then looked at the mirror nearby,"Looks like the symptoms are show-" But she was interrupted when her body got weak and it made her stumble forward but she used her arm which grabbed a chair nearby so it supported her and prevented her from falling. Nico stood up quickly and rushed to her,"Are you okay?" "Y-Yeah, I'm okay, I must be tired..." She sighed deeply before she slowly stood up erectly,"I'll be fine, I just need some rest." Nico's eyes softened,"I hope you will be completely okay.."

Nozomi nodded with a chuckle,"Don't worry!"

~3 weeks later~

Another day in the busy street...

And another worse day for Nozomi.

Why?

Because of new bruises that she will get from Harold, her so-called fiance.

Good thing that she has work today so then she could avoid him.

And she would hide the bruises from Eli in fear that she would find out about her relationship with that man.

Nozomi was arranging the clothes again and entertain the customers that are walking here and there, looking for clothes. With the help of Nico, they finished half of the day, selling the clothes successfully.

Until it came late afternoon and it is that time where Nico had to go shop for dinner.

"Hey Nozomi! Be careful on your way home!" Nico shouted as she got near by the door and Nozomi just waved,"You too!" After that, the raven-haired the left and the purple-haired went back to arranging boxes.

Then the sound of door opening could be heard along with footsteps entering.

"Did you forget something Ni-" But as Nozomi looked up her eyes widened, seeing the man that she doesn't want to see..

Harold Grul..

"Harold!" She stood up,"W-What are you doing here?"

"Oh just visiting the stupid shop that my fiance works in." Harold smirked as he moved towards her. Nozomi slowly took steps back,"R-Really? I thought that you had work.." She secretly gasped when her back hit the wall with nowhere to run. Harold finally reached her and suddenly grabbed her wrist tightly making Nozomi yelp. The man then slowly leaned down with an icy glare,"I ran away because I was pissed and impatient, entertain me, woman or I will make sure you will receive gifts."

The purple-haired knew what he meant but she couldn't just give her virginity to this man, she she struggled hard,"N-No.."

"Oh?" Harold then suddenly pinned Nozomi on a nearby table and then gently unzips his pants,"But you must or your mother will get mad at you."

Nozomi's eyes widened in fear and struggled hard,"No!"

"Wha- you-" The man then grabbed Nozomi's clothing and tore it a bit, showing her cleavage which made him smirk and then moves on top of her,"I like that body of yours."

Nozomi hiccuped and closed her eyes tightly, bad memories are coming back to her which made her shiver.

Harold was about to lean down but a powerful force greeted his cheek making him yelp and flew to the right side of the room, he sharply shouted by the time he hit his back on the wall.

The purple-haired quickly sat up and looked at her rescuer, her eyes then overflow with tears once she saw her savior,"E-Elicchi.."

The pissed off Eli just let her icy glare focus at Harold who started to groggily stand up. she grits her teeth so tight that it wounded her lower lip, letting blood drip from it. Her eyes were so vicious with pure anger,"Are you okay, Nozomi?" She asked in her cold tone. Nozomi stiffened and nodded,"Y-Yes..I guess." "Bastard..." Eli muttered and walked towards Harold, clutching his collar tightly and lifted him up,"HOW DARE YOU ATTEMPT TO RAPE HER HUH?! WHO THE HELL ARE YOU?!" Harold yelp in pain and looked down at her,"W-Who are you..?" "I'M HER FUCKING LOVER! WHAT ABOUT YOU?!" "I'm her fiance!" Harold answered and Eli's eyes widened in anger then threw a blow on his face,"A useless fiance who plans to rape the girl he will marry! Fuck you!" And she kept sending large blows on him. Harold was shocked enough that Eli could carry his full weight while punching him and it hurts so much that it made him grunt in pain and couldn't even fight back.

"Elicchi! Stop!" Nozomi shouted and the blonde did, panting slightly before looking over her shoulder,"Please stop..." Nozomi's eyes are watery and the blonde's eyes softened before she harshly threw Harold on the ground, groaning in pain and standing up,"You will pay for this!" He whined before he ran out of the shop. Eli rushed towards Nozomi and held her close,"Oh god, good thing I went here or you will get really raped by that guy." Nozomi then began to sob uncontrollably as she buried her face on Eli's chest while embracing her tightly and weakly.

"Let's go over my house alright? It is dangerous for you to go to your house today."

Nozomi did nothing but nod. The blonde then leaned down and gave a soft kiss on her head before she removed her coat and put it on the other,"Let's go home.." The purple-haired nodded and the blonde gently carried her in bridal style,"You can sleep along the way, I don't mind, alright?" She smiled at her and Nozomi just nodded again before she closed her eyes. Eli then couldn't help but lean down and kissed her forehead gently before she walked out of the shop.

~That night~

"Ahh!" Harold grunted as Nozomi's mother put antibiotic on his cheek.

"Stay still!"

"I know! Damn your daughter! I didn't know that she already has a lover! Could you believe that?!"

"I know, she never told me about it too. Don't worry, I will call her and have her talk about this."

"Perhaps, she is not suitable for you after all." Mr. Grul said with his arms crossed.

"Oh don't worry, Mr. Grul, I will discipline that girl once she gets home." Nozomi's mother said as she continued giving Harold antibiotics for his wounds.

"You better be." Mr. Grul's voice turned into a cold and serious one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~That night~

The purple-haired was sleeping peacefully on Eli's bed, she was now newly dressed and was being heavily guarded by the blonde herself who was sitting at the edge of the bed, Nozomi's phone was resting on the bedside table but the blonde doesn't want to look into it right now or she will just go on rampage so she just stared at the sleeping Nozomi silently.

The door then opened, revealing Lucia.

"Is she okay now?" The mother asked her daughter as she entered the room, the blonde looked at her and nodded with a smile,"Yeah..thank goodness.."

Lucia sighed,"I'm so glad that you made it in time.."

"Yeah..me too..say mom...do you know who is this Harold is?"

Lucia only knew one person so she just blinked,"Harold who?"

"He is Nozomi's fiance."

An idea struck Lucia's head, remembering it now,"Harold Grul? Ahh that child of Mr. Grul..he is one of those businessman that we cooperated with."

Eli's eyes narrowed,"He was the one who attempted to rape her."

Lucia's eyes widened,"What?" Her eyes then narrowed,"This is ridiculous."

"I know.." Eli gritted her teeth.

"I knew that there was something fishy in the Grul family..seems my hunch was right.." Lucia put a hand on her forehead,"I will cut ties from them. They don't deserve our shares.."

"And Nozomi's mother..?" Eli narrowed her eyes and Lucia pat her head to calm her child,"Calm down, Eli Ayase, you are acting like your father." Eli sighed,"But.."

"Anger doesn't resolve everything.." Lucia smiled but then Nozomi's phone rang and they didn't bother to answer it. After a moment, Eli then picked it up and the phone beeped and came Nozomi's mother's angry voice.

"NOZOMI TOUJOU! WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!? YOU ARE NOT IN THE SHOP! COME HOME AND WE WILL HAVE SOMETHING TO TALK ABOUT! HAROLD CAME HERE ALL WOUNDED AND TOLD ME ABOUT YOU AND THAT LOVER OF YOURS! BREAK UP WITH THAT PERSON WOULDN'T YOU?! OR ELSE I WILL HAVE YOU BEAT UP JUST LIKE WHEN YOU WERE STILL A TEENAGER!"

Eli then snapped and glared at her mother who went silent.

Lucia said,"I wasn't finish, anger doesn't solve everything sometimes." Her face then turned into an intimidating one,"I WILL TAKE CARE OF HER. Give me the phone." And the blonde did so, once Lucia has the phone, she then put it on her ear and spoke in her coldest voice,"This is Lucia Ayase...I do hope that you remember me you little bitch...I heard a little while ago that you wanted your daughter to break up with my daughter? Well guess what? You better watch yourself, that's the last thing I wanted to hear from you..I have all the evidences I need to show to the police about your good-for-nothing ass' daily routine. And just want you to know, Harold Grul and his father get their fortune from our shares. Our family is more powerful than them and I can cut ties with them anytime now. Good luck hiding yourself somewhere..oh..I forgot, you can't hide anymore...I'm everywhere." And with that said, Lucia then hung up and handed it back to Eli before sighing deeply. Eli then smiled at her mother's coolness,"Thank you so much mom.." "Don't mention it honey, now go to rest too alright? It is late." She then stood up and headed out of the room, leaving the blonde behind with a smile as she put the phone back to the bedside table.

Nozomi groaned as she opened her eyes slowly, she then sat up,"Elicchi..."

The blonde turned to her,"I'm here, how are you feeling?"

The purple-haired then faced her and suddenly embraced her, shivering. The blonde's eyes widened in surprise and embraced her back,"Everything will be okay."

"I'm scared Elicchi...so scared..."

"No need to worry now, Nozomi, everything will be okay from now on...I will always protect you.." the blonde then gave her a soft kiss on Nozomi's head.

The purple-haired's eyes widened in surprise and looked up at her,"I now remember..."

"Hmm?"

"You were that girl...who would always rescue me from all sorts of troubles...even that night...I now remember.."

Eli smiled,"I'm sorry for not telling it to you directly.."

Nozomi's eyes began to be watery again and leaned up to plant a kiss on the blonde's soft lips, her eyes then closed as she deepened the kiss. Eli then gently used her tongue to knock on Nozomi's closed lips which she opened eventually, letting the blonde's tongue enter and play with hers. The kiss became passionate and full of love. After a few more minutes, the blonde softly and carefully pushed Nozomi down to the bed and moved on top of her, still have her lips sealed with the purple-haired's.

~WARNING! SMUT STARTS HERE! YOU CAN SKIP IT IF YOU WANT!~

Eli then slowly started to remove her clothes after she seperated her lips from Nozomi's. The blonde then looked down at the other who looked up with a soft smile,"Nozomi..." Eli smiled and leaned down again to give her small kisses on Nozomi's lips, corner of her lips, neck, ears, nose, cheeks and forehead. With this, the purple-haired felt so loved that she had to giggle a bit.

"Elicchi, that tickles." Nozomi grinned softly.

"I love you..." Eli whispered in between the kisses.

"I love you too, Elicchi." Nozomi then gently held Eli's face and planted a peck on her lips,"Make love with me."

"Are you sure?" Eli's eyes softened with worry and the purple-haired nodded with a smile,"I want you to take my virginity..I know that you are worth it." Eli then smiled back at her,"Alright then.." She then removed all of her clothes and Nozomi removed hers with the help of the blonde, Eli then went back to giving her small kisses and then she halted by landing a passionate kiss on Nozomi's neck, the purple-haired then moved her neck to the other side to give Eli more access of her neck. Nozomi's and Eli's eyes were all closed.

The blonde then moved her hand down and touched Nozomi's body like it was memorizing it, until it halted to her one breast which she gently cupped it and moved her hand in circular motion, giving that tickle to the purple-haired and it made her moan a bit.

"Elicchi..." Nozomi's voice became so soft and it turned the blonde on so Eli's lips moved downwards and went to Nozomi's other breast and stayed there for a moment, passionately sucking her nipple. The purple-haired bit her lower lip as she felt that strong feeling of pure passion and lust, she slowly spread her legs and Eli gladly and carefully inserted her member inside Nozomi's soft wall, she then started to move slowly. To Nozomi, she felt that unbearable pain as soon as Eli moved.

Nozomi winced in pain and Eli immediately stopped what she was doing, the blonde then looked at her with worry in her eyes, she then placed her hand on top of Nozomi's,"I'm sorry..did I hurt you that much?" Nozomi had small tears as she looked back up at the blonde. Eli's eyes widened,"Oh how stupid of me! I'm so sorry, I will be more gentle.." "N-No...keep going..I can take it." The purple-haired answered and Eli couldn't find the sincerity in her voice,"Are you sure?" "Yes I'm sure, please...keep going." Eli nodded,"If you say so, just so you know, I'm holding your hand so then you will have something to hold on. Alright?" Nozomi nodded with a smile,"I love you.." "I love you too, Nozomi." And Eli began to move again, the purple-haired felt that pain again and bit her lower lip to endure it.

The blonde then began to thrust faster and deeper and after a moment of thrusting, Nozomi felt the pain going away and it was slowly replacing of mysterious tickles that flowed from that part up to her whole being, Nozomi then couldn't help but moan with pleasure. Eli began to pant as she kept thrusting faster, she felt that she is at her limit and the same goes to Nozomi who tightly gripped Eli's hand and her other hand began to claw Eli's back, her moans began to grow a little louder because of the pleasure that she was feeling right now.

Until they have reached the climax and Eli's fluid ran down from the tip of her member, mixing with Nozomi's. Eli then released her seed into the other and her moving slowed down until it stopped, they were sweating and panting at the same time. The blonde then got off and laid beside the purple-haired, panting slightly. Nozomi then gently rolled over, facing the blonde with a smile,"Elicchi~" "Hmm?" Eli responded tiredly and the next thing she got is Nozomi's soft kiss on her forehead,"Thank you.." Nozomi stated before she cuddled closer to the blonde. Eli smiled softly before she moved the blanket on them and had her one arm around the purple-haired,"I love you so much.."

~END OF SMUT!~

The two then stayed under the covers until the middle of the night. Eli then opened her eyes and looked at Nozomi who was peacefully sleeping beside her with a smile on her face, the blonde also smiled and held her closer before she closed her eyes to sleep again..

~The next day~

Eli groaned as she slowly sat up and rubbed her head before she turned beside her and found Nozomi still sleeping peacefully, she smiled and leaned down to kiss her head before she carefully moved off from the bed to get herself ready.

I wonder how is the field? It was full of flowers that time when me and Nozomi went there. She thought as she put on her clothes from last night. After that, she turned to face Nozomi who began to stir a bit before she opened her eyes. The purple-haired sat up and winced when she felt pain on that part. She blushed furiously once she remembered what happened last night.

"Good morning." Eli then sat at the edge of the bed and the purple-haired faced her with a blush,"G-Good morning...ow.." She winced again and Eli held her gently,"You okay?" "I'm fine...just kinda felt pain on that...part of mine.." "I see, have a little rest here then, I will just get you as soon as breakfast is ready." Nozomi just stared at her with worry, thinking about something and that made Eli chuckled,"Don't worry, this mansion is heavily guarded, no one can take you away from here. And I promised that I will protect you right? Trust me."

Nozomi then softly smiled and wrapped her arms around the blonde,"Thank you...for giving me that passion from last night, I doubt I would forget it.." Eli's eyes softened and embraced the love of her life securely.

"I want to be with you Nozomi..forever." Eli then planted a soft kiss on Nozomi's side of her head.

"And I want to be with you too Eli...forever.." Nozomi replied.

And they stayed like that for a little while...
