Destiny and Fate Ch 11

As the time of October marched in, the temperatures began to drop and the faint sense of summer was quickly disappearing. Hikari's mood began to worsen as the days passed and got colder. The day of Taichi and Sora's engagement was approaching. If it wasn't for Takeru's tireless efforts to pull pranks and make jokes, the depressed ice princess would have changed her behavior drastically beyond imagination. She looked sad even during school hours. Hikari was not focused on the lectures or notes on the board. All she did was looking out the window and staring at the city buildings. Because she was absent minded, he pulled pranks on her frequently during classes. Naturally, she got angry at the pale jokester which was an indication that she was not completely depressed or sad. However, her mood took a dive on the fateful day when the engagement takes place. That day, she was sleeping in her room while Takeru was up and moving. It was unusual of her, but understandable. Eventually, Takeru was forced to wake the sleeping princess.

"Hikari, it's morning."

She remained still in her bed, clinging to the warmth of the blanket. Takeru walked up to her bed and lifted the blanket off of her.

"Come on. It's already past lunch."

"…"

She didn't speak, but got off of her bed soon.

"I'll be waiting outside."

Takeru exited the room and waited patiently. After waiting more than half an hour, Hikari came out of her room, dressed beautifully.

"Let's hurry. We might be a little late."

With that, he rushed to the garage and started the car. The destination was the Yagami Corporation building Takeru visited before and he drove as quickly as he could. The traffic jam was horrendous, but Takeru's decisions on route choices allowed them to arrive earlier. Once she arrived, she seemed more depressed than ever. Thankfully, the engagement was held exclusively and they weren't bombarded by the media. As he entered the wide company building, Takeru spoke gently.

"We still have an hour and half. What do you want to do, Hikari?"

"…"

The hazel eyed ice princess did not answer the pale giant. Despite the fact that she was ignoring him, Takeru managed to keep his cheery and happy personality.

"Since we're early, can you show me around the Yagami Corp building a little?"

"…"

She did not answer, but she began walking towards the elevator. Takeru followed her closely. Soon, the two arrived at a large office room. Takeru looked to see whose office it was and read a familiar name on the door.

"Hikari Yagami…This is your office?"

"…"

Silence was her only answer, but it was clear that this was her office. She went in and sat down while the blond man looked around the room. Unlike her house, the office was kept quite simple and normal. There weren't extravagant paintings or decorative things. It was like any other office that one might see in a movie or in TV. After some time was spent on touring her office, Takeru spoke to the depressed and silent lady.

"Care to show me more places, Hikari?"

"…"

The gold haired man sighed heavily before speaking.

"Come on, Hikari. You can't be silent all the time."

"Shut up, Ishida. Happy now?"

A cold response left her mouth. However, Takeru expected such reply from her and didn't let it bother him.

"Yeah. I'm glad you finally decided to speak."

"…Didn't you hear what I said?"

"I heard you, but I don't want to stay quiet. I want to talk to you more."

"…I don't'…"

"But I do."

He said with a brightening smile. But Hikari spoke harshly.

"I don't care what you want! Just don't talk to me. Leave me alone."

"…"

She turned around and faced away from Takeru. She heard him sigh once again.

"Acting like this is not gonna solve your problems, Hikari."

"Talking to you is not gonna solve it either…"

"Come on, Hikari. Cheer up."

"…"

"Let's go get something to eat. Then, maybe you'll feel better."

She shook her head.

"So you're just gonna stay here the entire time?"

"…What's wrong with that?"

"So you're just gonna starve the whole day?"

"It's not like I'm gonna die, Ishida."

Takeru gave a brief silence, but continued talking soon after.

"I know you're upset, but you gotta take care of yourself."

"I know how to take care of myself."

"You don't sound convincing when you're refusing to eat."

Then, Hikari snapped at the gold haired titan.

"Would you want to eat if you were me?"

"…"

"And I don't care if I'm taking care of myself or not. Taichi is getting engaged and going to Europe with Sora! I don't care what happens to me anymore!"

Takeru looked down on the ground and fell silent while Hikari turned herself away from him. For the first time, Hikari made her fake boyfriend fall silent. Usually, he would make a strong, clever comeback that she can't counter, but he didn't today. Thinking that it was a little bit strange, she slightly turned her face and tried to see him. But by the time she turned her eyes, Takeru was already embracing her tightly. Quickly, Takeru loosened his arms, made Hikari face him, and hugged her again. After he repositioned her, he began digging through her dress with one hand.

"What…what are you doing, Ishida?"

She asked because his hand was already unhooking Hikari's brazier. Because of Takeru's bold and sudden action, she tried desperately to break free. She tried her hardest, but Takeru's one hand was powerful enough to restrain Hikari's full strength. Now, he completely unhooked her bra and Hikari felt it slipping down her dress.

"Ishida! Stop…"

She couldn't finish her sentence because Takeru was now kissing her fiercely. She shook her head and pulled her face away from the Takeru.

"…Ishida…Why are you doing this?"

"…"

He didn't say anything and he was now focused on unzipping her dress. Hikari was now getting scared. She has never seen him so wordless and aggressive. Because of fear caused by Takeru's unceasing actions, Hikari couldn't help but to let tears fall out of her eyes. It was just like the night at the hotel except she was aware that she was getting undressed now.

"Ishida…please…don't do this…"

He didn't stop despite hearing Hikari's plea. She repeated the same words from the hotel night, with tears constantly dripping out of her precious eyes.

"I thought…you were gonna help me…to love…and…smile…Ishida…"

However, the words did not stop him this time. Now, her dress was unzipped and it was matter of time for Takeru to forcefully remove her clothes. His hand gripped the dress and slowly pulled it down from her body, exposing her delicate shoulder. As if he's trying to savor the moment, he took his time removing her dress. Slowly but surely, Hikari's body was getting exposed. Soon, her chest was revealed and she couldn't cover herself because her arms were locked by Takeru's powerful arm. When the dress came down half way just below the waist, the gold haired man laid her on the office floor. He cuffed Hikari's wrists with his one large hand while trying to strip himself. Hikari gasped in fear, knowing what would come after next. She felt him grasping her breast and moaned helplessly. Tears wouldn't stop falling from her eyes and she firmly shut her eyes in fear. Then, Takeru called out the name of the half naked, frightened girl.

"Hikari."

She opened her eyes and saw that her wrists weren't cuffed anymore. She also saw that Takeru didn't remove any of his clothes. Not moving from his position, he began speaking.

"Why are you crying?"

One sentence silenced her completely. Her tears completely contradicted what she said. She found fear and got scared of what would happen to her.

"If you truly didn't care about what happens to you, you wouldn't cry or complain if I tried to do anything to you."

"…"

Her teary eyes couldn't escape Takeru's azure crystal eyes. She couldn't look away.

"You still want to have hope. Don't throw your hope away so easily, okay?"

"…okay…"

Then, Takeru smiled even more magnificently than ever and offered his hand to help her up. She gently grabbed his hand and got up from the ground.

"Hikari, I'm sorry that I kinda got violent to prove a point."

He apologized for his aggressive behavior. She had a bit of stutter, but managed to speak the words of apology acceptance.

"It...it's…okay…"

He smiled once more and then, handed something to her. She looked at his pale hand and saw that he was holding her bra. She, then, remembered that she was still half naked and quickly snatched the bra from Takeru. She hurried on putting it back on, but rushing didn't help her at all. She struggled for minutes and Takeru suggested assistance.

"Do you need some help?"

Hikari sighed heavily and softly responded.

"…Yeah…"

Takeru chuckled and assisted her. It was done in an instance and Hikari zipped her dress up as well. Once she was dressed again, the pale man playfully and jokingly spoke.

"You know, I already saw your body, so you didn't have to turn away."

"…"

Her face began to redden like the sun. Takeru remained chuckling, watching her blush. Trying to stop him from laughing, she reached for the gun strapped on her thighs, but it was gone again. She immediately looked at Takeru and saw that he took it.

"Looking for this?"

"…Give it back, Ishida…"

"Hmm~. Should I?"

He said with his playful jokester smile. Hikari tried to snatch it, but Takeru raised his hand, making it impossible for Hikari to grab it. She jumped and punched him a little bit, but had no success in retrieving the gun.

"Do you really want it back, Hikari?"

"…It's mine…"

"I'll give it back to you if you give me a kiss."

He made a devious grin on his face. He saw Hikari getting angry at the return of his joker personality. He closed his eyes and spoke.

"Just once is enough."

"…"

He kept his eyes closed and waited. He predicted some of the actions that she would take and concentrated his focus in his ear. He tried to detect the sound of her moving chairs or stool, but heard nothing. Seconds passed. Minutes passed. Nothing was heard and it was getting awkward to have his eyes closed while expecting a kiss. Seeing how nothing was happening, Takeru reopened his eyes. He was shocked and couldn't believe his eyes. Hikari's angelic face was extremely close. His eyes were locked on Hikari's heavenly eyes. The two stood there. The situation developed into more awkward situation. Both of their hearts began racing extremely fast as if they sprinted for 2 miles. Takeru could feel the soft, intoxicating breath on Hikari's irresistibly luscious lips. Their lips were just about to meet. They were less than an inch apart.

"Uhh…Hika…"

Then, he had a small taste of her lips and couldn't continue to finish speaking. Her lips had a unique quality that just numbed every part of Takeru's body. Hikari pulled herself away from him as she touched her lips that barely felt Takeru. She did not expect Takeru to open his eyes and see that she was about to kiss him. She was embarrassed beyond belief. He just received a slight kiss from the girl he loves. And now, Hikari had the most adorable face that Takeru ever saw. The gold haired titan couldn't control his male urges.

"Let's pick it up from where we left off."

He made a deviant smile and stepped forward to claim Hikari's soft, warm lips.

"…mnn…"

Hikari moaned weakly because of Takeru's fiery kissing. She felt his tongue trying to reach hers. She tightly closed her lips to avoid feeling Takeru's tongue. After many failed attempts, he gently bit Hikari's lip which made her separate her lips momentarily. He took the chance and let his tongue rampage in Hikari's mouth. Her moaning became frequent when she felt Takeru's tongue seducing her. She tried to pull herself away from the pale kisser, but her arms began to lose strength and trembled. Her body couldn't comprehend the sensation fully and numbed her senses. Feeling no strength in her entire body, she helplessly fell on her knees. Their kissing ended as of that moment.

"…Haa…haa…"

Hikari panted, trying to calm her racing heart. Takeru bent down and spoke to the girl who just reached the limit of what her body could feel.

"Got too excited, Hikari?"

"…"

She tried to speak, but couldn't do so yet. Right now, she was busy focusing all her energy to not fall on the ground. The blond man enjoyed the scenery. He offered his hand and Hikari took it. With Takeru supporting her, Hikari was now able use some of her energy to speak.

"…G…give me my…gun back…"

"This?"

She nodded instead of answering. Then, Takeru started teasing her again.

"No."

Then, Hikari used her weak arms to smack Takeru on the chest. The blue eyed man commented on her.

"You're so cute right now, Hikari."

"Come on…Ishida…"

She softly pleaded and Takeru finally gave in.

"Okay okay. I'll give it back to you."

She held out her hand for the gun, but instead of placing it in her hand, he reached his under the dress and strapped it back on her leg holster.

"There, I even put it back in there for you."

"…I didn't…need you to…"

"You're very welcome."

He smiled as cunningly as ever and continued to speak to Hikari who was just about done with her recovery.

"Now, then. How about getting some food?"

"…"

She couldn't say no to that anymore. She still cared about her body and well being. Takeru proved that with undisputable evidence.

"…Okay…"

"Let's go."

With that, the two headed towards the dining hall. During the whole time, Hikari didn't realize that Takeru was holding her hands. She realized only after she arrived at the dining hall and tried to grab a plate. The blond man smiled brilliantly and the brunette girl began eating spice foods to hide her blushing face.
