~Chapter 2~

Milieu's POV

I have got to stop thinking of him like this! I must concentrate in helping the doctor in his experiment. There are more important things to do than think about him all the time.

That was me trying to convince myself to stop following Jealousy. I couldn't help it, he had this aura to him, it was enticing, and I had to find out more about him. I managed to get distracted enough to stop myself for two weeks. Unfortunately, I couldn't resist any longer, so I decided to just make sure that he was okay. At least that's what I was telling myself.

He was taking his master to school one morning. While they were waiting for the last bell, I hid behind a wall next to the doors. He was wearing his human disguise, it was his secretary outfit but without the coat and tie, only the white shirt and slacks in a more casual look. He still wore his hair in a low ponytail but with a different colored ribbon. He looked even more beautiful than I remembered. I once in a while got a glimpse of his pink and blue eyes and his mouth with its permanent pout. I concentrated in that pout, in how soft his lips looked. In how much I wanted to kiss them, hear them say my name. The school bell got me out of my day dreams. I saw him say something to Lune and took the opportunity to leave. I hadn't noticed that there was a bike rack behind me and tumbled into it, the bikes falling one on top of the other in a domino effect. I turned around and he was looking at me. So much for leaving unnoticed.

Jealousy's POV

I was taking Lune to school and when the last bell rang there was a sudden crash behind me. When I turned around Milieu was standing there, he had apparently collided with the bike rack. He turned around and looked at me. I saw his eyes falter for a second-it was so fast you barely noticed it-but he soon was looking at me with his usual expressionless face. I decided to give him a piece of my mind as I realized that it had been him who followed me. Since I couldn't exactly start yelling at him while still in school grounds at the risk of being kicked out-and not in the nicest way-I signaled him to go to another place to talk. He silently agreed. We found a private, quiet place where nobody would be able to hear us. It was a shed used by the school's grounds keeper, unoccupied now.

-"What are you doing here? Did Dunstan send you to spy on us?"

-"The doctor doesn't have anything to do with this. And you're the only douji I'm observing."

Well, that caught me off-guard. He ignored my confused face and continued talking.

-"Look, even I don't know the reason I'm doing this. I had tried to ignore you, to concentrate on my work, to forget about you. But now I realize that is impossible."

I was bewildered by his words. What was he talking about? I started to feel uneasy again. He closed his eyes, frustrated while I tried to understand what was going on. Reading his mind wouldn't work, he was blocking me. Suddenly, I found myself pinned against a wall, his lips on mine. He pulled me closer, his right hand around my waist while he cradled my head with the other one. I closed my eyes and caught myself thinking how fortunate it was that we were alone. Something I discarded almost immediately, that wasn't a good thing. What if I was raped, nobody would hear me. When he stopped kissing me, we were both breathing heavily. He looked at me for a moment then kissed my forehead and left without a word.
