Awkward Love
By Hiroyuki11
Chapter VI: …Another Feisty Maid…?!
"Here's your meal Kanata-kun…" A girl said, bringing a platter to Kanata.
"…Wow!" Kanata said while munching on the… err, Pumpkin Pie. "This is great!"
"…Thank you sir! Here's another one!" She then gave him a glass of… Pumpkin Shake. "…I made it!"
Kanata gulps down the shake… wow, and he smile at the girl. "…That was delicious! You know… you're future husband will be lucky!"
The girl blushes… "…I think you're lucky enough, Kanata-kun…"
"…I think…" Kanata's face started to emit glittering light, and his smile was shiny, as if his teeth was made from gold, "…I think I'm the lucky one…" Kanata then holds the girls hand, "…Mimi, will you marry me…?" After saying that the scenery changes from the Saiyonji Mansion's Dining room in a flower bed, which at this moment the petals of rose were falling the sky.
"…Oh, Kanata! YES! Let's run away together!" Mimi replied, grasping Kanata's hand in her other hand.
"…Oh, Mimi!"
"Kanata!"
"Mimi!"
"Kanata…"
"MIMI!!" The voice sounded strange… It's not Kanata's
"…Kana…ta?"
"MIMI!! WAKE UP!"
MIMI!! WAKE UP!" The voice said again, and this time she recognizes it as one of her… cow-worker…. Err, co-worker. "…It's already 5:30 AM! We've got work to do! Ms. High-and-Mighty, Kanata's-soon-to-be-wife my ass!"
Great! Just great, my alarm clock, Ms. Age-doesn't-matter is waking me again… I wish she would quit and became a waitress again. I mean, who would marry a 28 years old maid who had two children?! What's more, her husband left her because she was too stuck-up! Mimi thought as she rubs her eyes… that dream again… Great, this is the first time I've been obsessed with someone… "Go ahead, I'll join you later, pedophile-san." Mimi muttered the last word.
"…Did I hear something from you?" The so-called 'Ms. Age-doesn't-matter' hissed darkly.
"…No, I was just talking to myself Kawazumi-san." Miki said as she bow slightly… or what she thought it looked like.
"…Hmp! Keep that up and soon I'll be seeing you walking at the front door with your suitcase…" Kawazumi said smugly as she left the room.
Is it…? Now that the master is gone, would we be seeing someone in this house hold off? She asks herself sadly, Kanata-sama wouldn't fire a single worker in here… he's too nice for that, I need to protect him… his innocence from the likes of the Nazi-bitch who wants to marry Kanata for fame and money. Mimi shook her head. Hmp! People these days… I mean, they all think about money… fame… money…!
Miyu Kouzuki…
Is she an enemy too…? She already had a head start with Kanata… is it? I only said those words to her to show her that Kanata is not some 'thing'. He's a very sensitive person, someone who had Justice, but lacks Freedom… he'll give away money if not for his stuck-up father forbids him too… But… I had to admit, Miyu is beautiful, and she looks intelligent… and polite, before I came that is. Mimi thought as she stood up and headed towards the maid's quarter's bathroom.
"…Another day… Another annoying day…" Mimi said in a singing manner, "…To see… the smiles of my rivals… those venomous grins they sent the prey… Y prey…" Mimi was carrying a glass of Pumpkin Juice for Kanata, she was going to Kanata's room, but before she could get there she heard something that would stay in her mind for a long time…
"…Ah! It hurts!" A female voice moaned.
"…Miyu… stop!" A man's voice shouted.
"…Ow, It hurts, it hurts!"
"…Don't!"
If you hear those words… what would you think? Well, I won't say it… but we do know what Mimi's reaction… "What the hell? Are they having bondage or something? Is Kanata evil now? I've got to find out!" She quickly drunk the Pumpkin Juice and she almost choke on it, "It's horrible!" she said looking at the pumpkin juice in a new light…
"Miyu... I can't take it anymore...!"
Mimi held the now empty glass against the door, she could now hear better... "Kamisama! They're really doing it! No, I've got to see it in my own eyes..." Mimi said as she grabbed the door knob.
"...Hmmmnnn!" Miyu gritted her teeth in pain... unconsciously. Her bruise was being hit, or there was something touching it. At long last, she woke up and felt... someone was holding her tightly.
She struggles but the hold was too tight to pry. That's when she took the moment to look at her captor's face and what she saw was brown hair and... Amber eyes.
They both look into each other's eyes for a long time.
"Kyaaaahh!!"
Kanata was running at his very best, he was running from the girl who gave him 'inappropriate' visions. Right now, she was running after him to hug him.
"Miyu stop!" he yelled but his yell bounce off the wall, like Miyu hadn't heard a word.
In his last turn he was presented by a wide and high wall. "Damn..." Kanata grunted.
"...HEHE, you can't run now..." Miyu said maniacally, "Now let me give you my BIG kiss and BIG hug!" Miyu said making a loud smooching sound, while latching her arm around Kanata's back.
When Miyu's lips were about a few centimeters from his lips, Kanata squirms in the hold and shouted, "Miyu... I can't take it anymore...!"
And with that he opens his eyes... and wished he didn't, what he saw was the very emerald green eyes of his captor. He thought it was just a dream, but he already woke up, he did what he did on his supposedly dream.
"Gyaaaahh!!"
Both young adults were glaring at each other as they were at the other side of the bed they were laying on moments before...
"YOU!" Kanata pointed at Miyu, he was breathing haggardly, "What the hell are you doing here?!"
"That's my question!" Miyu shouted back, "What were YOU doing in MY room!"
Kanata looks into Miyu's eyes before sneering, "Who said this is YOUR room?! You don't even live here!" Kanata hissed.
Miyu became quiet, and she looks away. Kanata notices it and he felt guilt, "Why were you here?" he asked softly.
No matter how hard he tried he couldn't think of a reason why Miyu would be here... "I'm sorry for my outburst earlier... I was just... surprised." Kanata went closer to Miyu... only to see her... blushing, and she was smiling.
Miyu was smiling because she was the one who controlled her anger... and she act as if she was hurt by his words, the result was: he submitted to her mercy. As for the blushing... who wouldn't when you wake up being hugged by a handsome boy who only clothing is his boxer? That's partially the reason why she looked away. "I'm sorry... but didn't you know I'm going to stay in here?" Miyu asks, when Kanata shook his head Miyu continued, "Didn't Yune-san say anything to you?"
"Yunece-san?" Kanata said uncertainly, Miyu nodded. "...I did see her last night but she didn't mention you." and then Kanata notices that Miyu is still isn't looking at him... "Why were you not looking at me... did I do something that hurt you?"
"Yes... you did," Miyu said, but before she could continue Kanata was already moving towards her... She was taken by surprise when he holds her shoulder and she jumps back and they both fell out of the bed and landed on the ground, and Miyu took the impact.
"I'm..." Kanata started to apologize when he heard gasps from the door. Kanata looks behind him at the door to see several Maids. "…sorry?"
Miyu shook her head for a moment to clear her mind, after that she looks at Kanata's back… towards the maids. When she saw the gaping mouth of the maids she knew something was wrong, and that's when she realizes that it looks like Kanata, in boxers, is pinning her, Miyu Kouzuki who's wearing a revealing nightdress or what they called 'Lingerie'. "…Guys, this isn't what it looks like…" she said, but she knows that it was already too late.
"...Okay you two..." Yune looks at both Kanata and Miyu, "What is it about you two sleeping together?" Yune said her tone was of a strict teacher punishing a student. Being the head of the maids, Yune was the responsible for the whole household, a duty given to her by Housho.
"Well we did sleep together," Miyu said bluntly, earning gasps from the crowd. Miyu sighs when she finally understood what was wrong: Kanata was popular even in his house... "...But not in a way that you all are thinking right now..." Miyu now looks at Yune, "It's my fault and, it is partially yours too..."
At that last sentence the ember in Kanata eyes burst again and it engulf his ember eyes, "...Yeah! You never told me about Miyu living in here!" Kanata said, although not in anger, but he raised his voice.
A brow from Yune rose up, and then she smiled slightly, "Is it...? I thought I already told you..." she chuckled when she remembers that she forgot to tell Kanata about it, "...Ah! Forgive me! I think my age has finally caught up with me... I'm sorry about that." Yune bows, both Miyu and Kanata sighs in relief, "...Hold on! Now back on the subject... Did you two slept together... intimately?" she added the last word to avoid giving Miyu a reason to dodge the question again.
"...No, we did not do any intimate acts..." Miyu said as looks at Kanata who was nodding, "...If you don't consider cuddling as an intimate act that is..." at that Kanata snaps his head towards her, he was glaring at her. Miyu just stick her tongue out...
If you don't want to be embarrassed go explain yourself, I'm not your secretary. Miyu transmit her message through their eyes...
I'm not as cunning as you are fox-girl, not even once in my life I've made Yune embarrass at herself. Kanata replied.
Miyu smirks. Just be honest, you're good at being honest... besides you sucked at lying.
Kanata frowns, 'What the hell? How can he imagine talking with Miyu with their eyes?'
Miyu smiles, she could read Kanata like a book, he did not need to speak, and his facial expression said it all. But what surprised her was that Kanata could understand her as well.
"Well… well… well, what do we have here? I never expected you to have mastered the 'Love Telepathy'," Yune smirks, Miyu looks horrified at the term and the fact that she had been discovered. "The requirements for it to work are: Precise Mutual Understanding... It is the same way with twins." Yune explained... Although there is another way, Yune didn't mention it... for revenge.
'That's not it! There is another way! I've read Kanata by looking at his facial expression... it is not accurate, but it does read'. Miyu thought, 'She got us!' Miyu then looks at Kanata in the eyes...
Go for it! Just say anything or I'll torture you… I wonder how YOUR bathroom looks like when you're taking a bath.
Kanata nodded, "No, we really did not do anything... or I think so... I was drunk," the maids gasps again, "...but I walk in her but I am confident we did not do anything." Then Kanata puts his hands in his pocket and held his nose high in the air… for those who knew him, he does that when he was going to use authority. "…Besides… Yunence-san, when did you care for MY girl business…? As much as I know, it is MY business and not yours…"
"…Oh you're right… but." At this Yune grabs Miyu's shoulder and she faces her to Kanata, "THIS is MY business…" Yune firmly said, putting more pressure on her hold on Miyu's shoulder.
"…What do you mean…? I'm already nineteen years old! I don't need guardians…" Miyu said while trying to pry the hands on her shoulder, but it tightens again, that's when she looks at Yune, and she that the Head maid was smirking.
"…Oh… did I forget to tell you that you'll be…" Yune giggles, "…You'll be put on my wing… as the new Maid…" At that Mimi laughed out loud.
"…Oh I see! Ms. Shitface is just a maid and not Kanata's girlfriend as she claims…" Mimi continued her annoying laugh.
Kanata closes his gaping mouth as he pretend to cough, "…Is this… the reason why you're staying here?" Kanata asks Miyu, paying no attention at Mimi.
Miyu shook her head vigorously, "…NO! I WAS STAYING HERE BECAUSE MY MOTHER SAID SO!" And with her new found strength she pried Yune's hand and she glares at her, "YOU! YOU DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT ME WORKING AS A MAID." Miyu shouted.
"SHUT UP! BAKA! DON'T SHOUT SO LOUD!" Mimi shouted back.
"…WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU…" Miyu pauses, "…JUST SHUT UP COWHEAD" and at that the two female bicker at each other…
At that a new friendship was formed… err, rivalry. Two maids, the first time they saw each other, they were already at each other's throat, throwing insults here and then, both are feisty… thus another feisty maid arrives…
"…Now Miyu… Do you think living here is free? Even your mother knew that… she must have sent you here because all you do is read, and you have no household experience." Yune said patting the now dressed Miyu.
Miyu smiled sheepishly, 'She's right, is you see my room you would see books everywhere… I've never even cleaned them…' "…Okay… I understand…"
Yune looks at Kanata, "…Now be careful, take Miyu with you when you go to school." Yune said and when she saw Kanata opens his mouth she continue, "…That way, you could conserve gas… and you have the same destination."
Kanata sighs, "Okay…" he nodded and then he went in his car. "…Bye… Miyu let's go."
"…Uh, sure…" Miyu said as she went in through the passenger side. She looks at the open window and waves at Yune, "…I'll see you later…"
Miyu rubs her temple… she feels that she would regret angering the head maid. As her superior, she had to do whatever tells her to do. 'Just my luck!' Miyu looks at Kanata, 'Well, I do have someone to vent my anger… Kanata Saiyonji, my stress toy! GYAHAHAHAHA!!' Miyu laugh in her mind. And with that Miyu and Kanata left the Saiyonji Mansion, towards the Heiomachi University.
"…Now what do we have here…?" Yune said as she was cleaning the Housho's office, and within, she saw a brown envelope. When she opens it she almost dropped it, her eyes widen.
This a signed contract upon agreement stating that, Kanata Saiyonji, 18, will be married to Christine Hanakomachi, 18, at Age 20… Yune's mind became blurry and so she did not read the rest of the letter…
OHAYO!
I love twist! I don't want my readers to predict what happens next! Hehehe. Anyway, I feel good writing nowadays… I didn't ask for reviews too and yet I am happy! Thanks for my fan, winry rocabell.
Don't Chew ME! I support Miyu x Kanata, but I don't like bashing! Anyway, enjoy my fics! Have a nice day to all! –Hiroyuki11
