Chapter Three: Our Love
-
"What the hell was that noise?!" Tsukushi bellowed as the honking of the car outside their house was non-stop. She was exiting her room and she met Yuki on the hallway.
Yuki shrugged, both of them were still wearing pajamas, "No idea. Let's check it out."
They both went outside to look for the nuisance. Tsukushi's eyes bugged out as she saw Tsukasa in his convertible while his hand was pressing hard in the middle of the wheel.
"Stop that!" Tsukushi yelled, "You're too noisy."
Tsukasa shrugged and stopped pressing on the wheel.
"What are you doing here?"
"Picking my girl for school."
Then Tsukushi remembered their 'situation'.
'Oh, right, he's my un-expected boyfriend no.', she thought wryly.
She rolled her eyes as she unwillingly open the gates wider, with the help of Yuki, to let Tsukasa in.
Tsukasa drove his car inside.
"Here, let me help you close the gate," Tsukasa volunteered.
"Don't bother, we'll leave anyway." Tsukushi said then muses with her hand to introduce her best friend and her 'boyfriend', "Yuki I would like you to meet Tsukasa, my boyfriend," Yuki's eyes widened, "Yeah believe it." She said to her friend. "And Tsukasa, I would like you to meet Yuki, my best friend." They both greeted each other before they went inside the house.
"So, anything I can get for you? Drinks or something?" Tsukushi asked.
"How about a kiss?" Tsukasa grinned.
Tsukushi sighed before she tiptoed to kiss Tsukasa on his cheek but Tsukasa has other plans. Once Tsukushi reached for his cheek, he snaked his arms on her waist and pulled her.
"Ack!" Tsukushi shouted in surprise. Her arms unintentionally went on Tsukasa's shoulder.
Tsukasa smirked as he held Tsukushi's face towards him then his face went nearer to Tsukushi's.
Tsukushi's turned redder and redder when Tsukasa's face came inch by inch in slow motion towards hers. Then their lips met. Tsukushi gasped then moaned.
Yuki who was finally ready to go to school saw their intimate scene and she smiled silently as she tiptoed, as to not disturb them, towards the main door.
"I'm leaving, the house is all yours guys!" she chirped before closing the door.
The couple heard the sound of the retreating vehicle but they paid no heed to it as they kept on kissing and slightly touching.
"Ha!" Tsukushi gasped after Tsukasa let go of her lips with a smirk. She stepped a little away from him, "Okay, I'll just prepare something for you to drink and why don't you watch tv or something for a while, while I go take a bath and change clothes, okay?" she said, face still flushing red.
Tsukasa nodded, "Anyway," he said suddenly, "Good morning, babe."
Tsukushi nodded.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Tsukasa parked his car at his official parking lot at the school.
Tsukushi grabbed her bag and started getting out fast when her foot tripped on the linings on Tsukasa's car (You know, the edge from the car when the car door is open) and she fell on the ground.
Tsukasa sweatdropped and hurriedly went to Tsukushi's side, "What the hell do you think you're doing, catching frogs?"
"You know what," Tsukushi looked up to her boyfriend as she snapped, "If you can't say something nice then DON'T SAY ANYTHING AT ALL!"
"Sorry for caring!"
"Ha!" Tsukushi started to stand up and wiggle herself away from Tsukasa's hold, "I can manage, I'm not some prissy girl, y'know!"
"Be my guest!" Tsukasa followed behind her with a scowl.
Not very long, when they were near the school's building, Tsukushi tripped again because of a large rock she didn't notice, she almost stumbles down the ground if not for Tsukasa's fast reflex.
"You know what sweetie, if you continue on tripping, I think I'll just have to carry you to your classroom," Tsukasa said with a frown.
"I don't need you to carry me, I can manage!"
"Oh, really." He arched his brow.
"I just miscalculate my footings!"
"Alright! I"ll pretend I believe you." He shrugs and walked beside her.
"Prick!" she mumbled.
"I'll meet you later then," Tsukasa said as they reached the building and he started to go the other direction after kissing Tsukushi.
Tsukushi suddenly felt a pang of incompleteness, "Matte!" she grabbed on his jacket.
Tsukasa frowned as he looked back at her.
"Where are you going?"
He smiled, "Missing me already?"
Tsukushi huffed, "In your dreams!"
Tsukasa nodded, "Later then." he started to walk off while whistling.
"Tsukasa!"
He looked back while grinning, "I'm going to look for my friends."
"Aren't you going to your class?"
"Maybe later."
Tsukushi sighed, what does she want from him anyway? She can't stay with him the whole time. She'll look like a clingy girlfriend who can't move on her own! And to think, they just started their relationship!
She looked at him like a stupid love-fool, waiting for something she didn't know, 'what's wrong with me?! Why am I looking at him as if I don't want to let him out of my sight!' she thought with a sigh, 'snap out of it Tsukushi!'
She pouted, "Later then."
"I'll see you later at lunch time," Tsukasa amended, as if reading Tsukushi's frustrations and battles within herself.
Tsukushi nodded and started to walk towards the stairs, then she turned back again. "Tsukasa!"
Tsukasa looked at her again, "Anything you want?"
"Err…" she blushed, "I hate to say this but…would you mind walking me to my classroom?" she said.
'Tsukushi Makino, are you mad?! Have you gone insane!?' her mind shrieked.
Tsukasa walked towards her and grabbed her stuff, "Of course."
When they reached her room, every girls' in her class gaped to the two of them. Obvious jealousy and scorn for her, and love-fool and longing towards Tsukasa.
They ignored them. Yuki was the only one who looked amuse, and there was also this other girl on the far away side who was always carrying her instrument and mostly late in class who was always minding her own business.
Everyone gave different reaction…..err….violent reaction when Tsukasa kissed her again. "I'll see you or you want me to fetch you after class."
Tsukushi smiled, "No, I'll just see you at lunch. I think first time glaring from the girls' here is enough for one day. Later."
"Yeah."
Tsukushi didn't leave on her spot until Tsukasa was out of her sight.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Well, that's a new development." Yuki said with an arched brow. "Oh well, considering the way I left you two earlier."
"Shut up, the last thing I need right now was a taunting voice like yours," Tsukushi muttered.
"What's the matter?" Yuki asked with a frown, "Don't tell me you hate Tsukasa with that kind of attitude. Well, if all people hate like that then there won't be enemies in the whole world!" then she laughed.
"I didn't say I hate him!" Tsukushi fumed like a child since her voice was soft yet her teeth were gritted. "It's more like I hate myself…"
"….from liking him," Yuki continued with a nod. "I see. A conflict with yourself, that's the hardest. You'll end up crazy, Kushi."
"That's a relief!"
Yuki chuckled.
"Oh! How I love to see a fly flew inside your mouth!"
Yuki choked on her laugh as she tried to stop while wiping the tears that were forming in her eyes. "Really now, all I can say is that the only solution to your non-existent problem is to be true to yourself and stop denying."
"I'm not denying!"
"See, I told you so!"
"Yuki!"
"Now you're putting your frustration at me." Yuki smiled playfully.
"I can't believe you're my best friend!" Tsukushi scowled, "And I did this whole thing for you."
When Yuki frowned with curiosity, Tsukushi shrugged and started relating the situation to her best friend.
"Aw how sweet!" Yuki exclaimed with wide grin. "That only proves how much you care for me!"
"Gah! You're not even worried that Tsukasa threatens to red tag you!"
"Of course not, 'coz he won't do it anyway, he's just baiting you dearest friend."
"Grrr…."
"That only proves how much he loves you. He'll do anything for you, ne?"
"Why do you sound like you're on his side?"
Yuki grinned, "Because you two look perfect for each other," Tsukushi was about to protest but Yuki cut her off, "Oh, there's our teacher now…"
Tsukushi sighed.
Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
At lunch time after the bell rang…..
"So, where's your prince charming?" Yuki asked as she and Tsukushi walked along the corridor.
"He said something about meeting me at lunch."
"I know the cafeteria where the F4 hangs out." Yuki snapped her fingers.
Tsukushi gave an inquiring brow.
"Why look as if you do not believe me, you're the only one who didn't care about your surroundings." Yuki pointed out, "That's why you're always tripping."
"One more insolent remark and I'll sew your mouth!"
Yuki laughed heartily.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"There you are!" Tsukasa said in a loud voice as he stood from his seat at the cafeteria with the F3.
"Hi," Tsukushi gave the four males a small smile then she introduced Yuki properly to them as Tsukasa introduced the two of them to his friends properly too.
She was about to sit to one of the chairs when Tsukasa tugged her arms and grabbed her books and bag.
"I thought we're going to eat?"
"But not here."
"But Yuki…." Tsukushi was about to protest as Tsukasa dragged her behind him.
"….will be fine…" he said as they exited the door.
"What makes you think I'm coming with you?!" she stomped her foot.
Tsukasa looked at her after he stopped abruptly, "Won't you?"
"I….errr……" Tsukushi twiddle her thumbs together, she even remembered what Yuki said earlier about being true to herself.
'If I said no…it'll be a lie and he'll sure be mad…but I don't care if he's mad. If I said yes…I'll be saying what I really want…but he'll think I love him so much and I'm sure he'll have a good time rubbing it in my face!' she thought in debate.
"We don't have all the time, Missy!" Tsukasa started to get impatient as he tapped his shoes on the floor.
Tsukushi shrugged, 'what the heck!', she looked at her boyfriend, "What are we waiting for? Let's go."
When they were out of the school building, Tsukasa assisted her as they walked towards his convertible.
"What are you doing? I can walk by myself, dummy!" she snatched her hands away.
"Yeah, whatever!" Tsukasa grabbed her wrist again and held it tightly.
"What makes you the boss of me?!"
"I'm your boyfriend, stupid."
"Well yeah, I shouldn't have let you!" she spat back as she got inside the car with a huff.
Tsukasa slammed the door to her side and walked to the driver's seat.
Tsukushi frowned as Tsukasa just sat there and he didn't make a move to start the car. "What's gotten into you? So silent all of a sudden."
"Don't you want me to be your boyfriend?" Tsukasa looked at her intensely, Tsukushi gasped as she saw him with that drool worthy expression, she feels like melting and she's crazy if she's not in love with him, heck who cares about their first blasted encounter anyway.
"I wouldn't have agreed to you to be my boyfriend if I don't want you to be," she rolled her eyes.
"I threatened you."
"You know what, maybe I just need a little pushing."
Tsukasa started to smile handsomely, "But you hate me the first time we met."
"I didn't actually hate you in a very serious way, things just got a little out of hand and that was weeks ago," she felt so ridiculous giving this kind of pep talk to a notorious guy like Tsukasa Doumyouji, it was just so out of his character to feel so down and unsure. "You know what, we're on our way to eat some lunch, so let's get the hell out of here and eat! I'm starving, for crying out loud!"
"Where to?"
"Kenny Roger's!"
They were in the middle of the road as Tsukasa drives so fast when the rain suddenly pours.
Tsukushi looked up the sky, her face meeting the rain, "Oh great!"
"Darn! Unpredictable weather!" Tsukasa cursed, "My car will be all wet!"
Tsukushi smirked rather than be irritated like Tsukasa, she even spread her arms as if feeling the rain.
Tsukasa looked at her with amusement, "You don't seem disturbed?"
"Why should I?" she smiled, "When it feels so good…haaaa…." She wiggled her head from side to side.
"I guess we can't make it to the restaurant, it's another thirty minutes drive and I don't want you getting soak even more."
"If that's the case…" she shrugged as she looked around where they are now, "Let's just go to the mall." She pointed at the building not far away.
"With our wet clothes?"
"Why, we're customers."
"It's not that, you can't expect me to go in there with my disheveled look, or you're forgetting that I'm Doumyouji Tsukasa?!"
"How could I when I always hear that 24/7 around the campus!"
Tsukasa's eyes narrowed, "You don't get it woman!"
"Tsukasa, what's more important, your image OR my stomach?" she pouted.
He sighed, "Well if you put it that way." He turned the car towards the parking area.
Tsukushi dances around the rain for a while as she twirls around before she let Tsukasa tug her arms towards the mall.
"It's freezing!" Tsukushi's teeth chattered as she hugged herself.
"I told you going to a mall was not a good idea…c'mon," he enveloped her in his arms as he started to lead the way.
"W-where are we going?"
"We'll buy some clothes."
Tsukasa didn't care when the water from the rain pooled down on their feet as they stopped on one of the boutique to buy some clothes. The salespersons didn't even bother to tell them off since they knew Tsukasa Doumyouji and his tempers.
The sales lady was delighted to assist Tsukasa with his clothing while Tsukushi chose some from the female stalls.
Tsukasa was about to take the green shirt the saleslady offered when Tsukushi hurried to his side. "Hey, try this one, it looks cool!" she handed him a red long-sleeved shirt with a zipper from top to the bottom of the shirt in the middle front. The saleslady snorted as Tsukasa took it to wear, Tsukushi gave the flirting lady one of her own death glares.
After a while, Tsukasa emerged from the changing room. "All set! So, sweetie, what d'you think?"
Tsukushi's eyes sparkled with adoration, "You look good, wow! I think I'll beat the crap out of everyone who'll FLIRT with YOU!"
Tsukasa grinned. The saleslady moved farther away from the couple.
"How about let's add this one up," Tsukushi suggested as she approached him and put the silver chain on the side of Tsukasa's newly bought jeans.
"Okay Miss fashion designer," Tsukasa smirked, "Now, it's my turn to dress you up."
"Eh!" Tsukushi blushed.
Tsukasa picked a red mini skirt and white three-fourths button up shirt and matching white three inch sandals with small red flower decoration.
When Tsukasa saw Tsukushi stepped out of the changing room, his eyes almost bugged out at Tsukushi's beautiful appearance and the sandals makes her looked leggy.
"Now I'm the one who'll definitely beat the crap out of anyone who even dares to look at you!"
Tsukushi smiled.
Tsukasa handed his gold card at the counter.
"So, where are we going now?" Tsukushi asked as she looked up to her boyfriend.
"We'll go at the fourth floor, I believe there's a decent classy restaurant up there."
"Even Mcdonald's okay with me."
"Not with our clothes," Tsukasa declared arrogantly.
Tsukushi rolled her eyes before Tsukasa assisted her out of the store.
Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
