First off I AM SO SORRY
Gawd I'm so stupid. I made a big mistake. For those who have read the previous story entitled 'Kei Takishima Birthday: The Best Present', you would notice that I replaced that story with this new one-shot because I found the settings too fixed for me to make minor changes.
What I said in the previous OS is that Kei is 25 years old but ughhh! And here I call myself a big SA fan. Kei is NOT 25 years old this year but 23. Kei Takishima was 17 at the end of the manga and the story was finished on 2009 so doing the math (again) that means it's been 6 years since then which makes Kei 23 years old this year (2015)
You guys have no idea how sorry I am for that. Even I feel so bad about that measly mistake. You may take this as a stupid excuse of mine but I could honestly say that ever since I was discharged in the hospital, I've been really out of sorts lately. When I walk my mind goes blank and I was almost hit by a car/motorcycle a few times, I tend to stare into nothing, I mismatch the dates and yeah, including this.
I'm really sorry and to somehow make myself better for this mistake, I'll be replacing 'The Best Present' with this new fanfic.
Enjoy
Vows to you
Chapter 19: Binding strings
While sitting near the edge of a cliff, a black Lamborghini Sesto Elemento parked not far from them, her leaning against her boyfriend's shoulder, two souls madly in love with each other watched the sun set under the glistening waters of the ocean.
He pulled her closer to him before leaning down to steal a kiss from his beloved, please at seeing her flushed face.
"I'm glad you could come today, Takishima"
"Of course Hikari, I wouldn't miss it" he kissed atop her head "Besides, I wanted to see my cute Hikari. I miss you so much"
"I-I missed you too" she blushed harder "Will you still make it for the party tonight? The others can't wait to see you too"
"Yes, I'll definitely have time for tonight but…"
"But?"
"But I have to go back to London right after the party"
"So soon?"
"I'm sorry Hikari. As much as I wanted to spend more time with you, they'll give me more work if I skip a day in graduate school"
"Oh, right." Kei felt an arrow of guilt strike his heart for making her sad. They've been separated from each other since they started college and even if Hikari doesn't always show it, he knows she loves him as much as he, and misses him as much as well.
"Hika-"
"Oh! I almost forgot your present!" she chirped, her mood suddenly changing "Close your eyes!" Chuckling, he obeyed and felt her hands working on his right wrist. "Okay, you can open them now!"
Setting his eyes to his wrist, he found a bracelet. Lifting it to his eyes, he further examined the object. It was a simple do-it-yourself bracelet; the strings weaved poorly together by hand.
"Hikari… you have zero skills in art"
"Wha-what's that supposed to mean?! You jerk!" he only laughed and was astounded when he turned his wrist to discover something more in this measly, child-made bracelet.
He heard her giggle and she brought her right arm up to see "Look! It matches just like mine!"
Indeed, it certainly does look like hers but in comparison, most of colors in his were of a lighter shade of blue and hers were a darker shade. Not that he complained, he found it suitable for her, it matches her eyes.
"Do-do you like it?" all of a sudden she felt nervous as if a school girl struggling to confess her love. "I just saw it up on the internet and it seems pretty famous for couples having these things so… I-I got you that because since it'll probably take another year or two for us to finish graduate school, I just... wanted to be at least lo-l-lovey-do-dovey with you a-a-and even i-if w-we might not see each other often, I-I just wanted to make this thing so that y-you'd know that I-I-I... that I-I lo-love you Takishima, n-no matter how far w-we're apart"
Now Kei might be known to not show his emotions much, if you knew him as long as Hikari does, you'd know that Kei's head is in the clouds, jolts of delight streaking down his spine, his heart beating frantically of pure giddiness and his stomach bubbled with butterflies. In short, Taksihima Kei is absolutely pleased. Who knew his lover had this kind of side in her?
Instead of giving her a reply, he pounced her down and ravaged her lips. Waves of love sparked between their connected lips as years of longing spoke volumes in their heated kiss, telling them things not needed to mention in words; only to part when the need of air was at its peak.
Panting, the sun had completely sunk and the two decided to return back to his mansion where their friends are waiting for him to celebrate his birthday.
"Takishima" he turned to her "Happy 23rd Birthday!" ahhh, with the gift finally given to him, and the pleasure he got for spending the entire day with his loved one and in their burning kiss; he honestly didn't mind if he should still have a party; because his birthday is indeed very happy after blessing him with Hikari's bright smile.
The same smile she gave him on his every birthday, and the same smile he fell desperately in love with.
"Thank you love"
Kei's not fond with accessories, but he wouldn't mind wearing the bracelet his true love made just for him. Especially if the words: K & H Together wrote on his side and Forever K & H wrote on his lover's other wrist.
No, he wouldn't mind at all.
K & H Together Forever K & H
To AnimeLover 123: I am honestly trying to avoid the drama and tragedy because I personally wouldn't want to kill/hurt them all the time. And I've received reviews/PMs to make more happy, fluffy fanfics/OS. But don't worry! I will accept your request! So please tune in and expect it on the next chapter!
To lovingANIME4ever: I am so very sorry but I will have to deny your request. I am not casting any favoritism but your request is too complicated and is more suitable to be a separate fanfic than an OS. Not that I don't like your idea, it's just that it has a bigger plot and idea than just a simple OS. So I'm very sorry but I'll more than happy to hear another idea of yours!
To animelover: Thank you for loving and reading my fanfics! Anyway, your request has lemons and I've already created a separate one-shot collection for Kei and Hikari smut (lemon). It's called vows to you (M). Also, your request is also more fitted to be separate fanfic. If I want Kei to win Hikari back then he'll have go against a lot of trials, not to mention that his grandfather and another girl is in the way. So I'm very sorry but I'll be more than happy to hear another idea of yours!
Oookay… I honestly admit that 'The Best Present' is better than this one…
I… I need a moment…
I guess I'm not feeling "totally" well yet. Sorry about that…
