Gulity Pleasure EDITED

Chapter 9

How I Feel About You Now


He keep his eyes on me. He sighed and looked away. "I know it sounds weird but... When I was Himeka this time I kept think of you Karin... When I was with her I realized it wasn't you, and you are what I want most right now."

My mind was closed I still didn't captured the image... I felt a huge happiness inside but I still felt my hard tighten when I thought it wasn't true. "You were about to marry her today, you expect me to believe that." I did not dare to face him.

"You got me before we said the I Dos or have you forgotten." He chucked and looked at me.

"I don't feel for you like that." My lie number one.

"Don't lie to me Karin, Just because your a detective doesn't mean we can't-"

"Its not that." My lie number two.

I looked way and looked at the passing cars.

"Karin, god dammit! Think for yourself for once!"

"I am. You don't understand it" And my lie number three.

"Maybe your right I don't understand it. I guess I thought wrong... your aren't the girl I thought you are... Sorry to trouble you." I heard him say. "Don't worry, I leave you alone so you can have your old life back." The door opened. "Goodbye, Miss Hanazono-san" He got out the door and shut it close. I started the car and drove away.

/-_-_-/Two Years Later/ -_-_-/

"Karin! Congrats!"

"Aww thanks Micchi!" I hugged him.

"Well I knew you had it coming, Karin... Or should I say boss."

"Hahaha Karin is fine. I just have to pack this office so I can move to the bigger one." I said as I put stuff in a boxes.

"Hi Karin!" Jin said as he came through the door.

"Jin!"I exclaimed and hugged him. "What are you doing here!"

"I heard the good news!" He kissed my cheek. "And came running here."

"It isn't that much its just a promotion." I said still packing " Now if you don't mind I have to pack to go to the other office." I smiled

"What's that Karin?" Jin said as he pointed to the small box in a corner.

"Huh I didn't notice it..." I walked and picked it up. "I don't remember this here..." I open the same wooden box.. "Wha..."

"Karin, would you marry me?" Jin said has he got in one knee. I took out the gorgeous ring.

"Jin! I... don't know what to say I..."

"Karin I know we have only been together for a year but.."

"Jin you didn't have to do this..." I said still in shock.

"Karin your everything for me.." I looked at him and then to the ring. It didn't feel right no... It wasn't right.

"Jin I... I am not ready for this.." I got in one knee to be face to face to him. I smiled "I am sorry just give me more time." His smile sadden but he knew I wasn't ready.

He smiled "Anything for you." He leaned over and kissed me.

" I am sorry to interrupt the lovely kiss kiss love love not ready thing but boss wants to tell you something."

"Oh." I stood up and walked to my soon to be office. "Yes sir?" I said as I came in.

"Ah Karin I have good news for you!"

"Yes?" I said as I sat down.

"Since your going to be the boss of this so I was thinking that before you do become the boss you should meet up with my co-partner from England..."

"Oh... Do I have to go..." I said sighing.

"Of course! I am still your boss you know..."

"I know but.."

"Don't worry! I have everything paid!" He said handing me the ticket and papers... "And when you get back your office will be up and ready!"

"Fine sir." I stood up. "When's the flight?"

"Tomorrow."

"Fine. I'll head home then."

"Bye Karin." I closed the door and sighed.

"What's wrong Karin?" Jin said as he walked towards me.

"I have to go to England for a while..."

I found myself on the airplane siting down reading a book. I looked over the window and saw what was London I sighed. I was in London. I fasten my seat belt for landing. And closed my book. I realized I should stop reading romantic tales they are for fat single middle aged ladies. When all the arriving and mess was over I went to my hotel. My life was really just job. I laughed of the thought while looking out side the window. Now I thought about Kazune. I walk to the bed and dropped myself on the bed. I haven't seen him since that day. He left with no trace. God knows if he is even alive. But it was days like this I missed him the most. I wished I would said yes to him and kissed him right there. But he was done. And done with my life. Now I was in good relationship with a great guy. Everything was perfect just like before I met Kazune and before he started robbing. I went under the covers and slept I was to tried to even start unpacking my suitcase. All I wanted to do is escape from my life and live in Kazune's. I admit I haven't forgot him for one second.

I yawned as I woke up from my slumber. I looked at the watch and cursed the time zone. I quickly combed my hair and let it down. I also put my usual outfit. A tucked in white shirt, a navy skirt that started from my hips and ended right before the knee. And a navy coat and a detective hat. That's probably the only thing that hasn't change . I dashed out the hotel and got in a cab. And in thirty minutes I was there. I looked at the building and it was huge. I went in and it was busy like all offices were I went in and was led to the office of the leading man.

"Ah Hanazono nice meeting you." The old man said.

"Hello" I smiled as I sat down. "Nice meeting you."

"I heard so many good things about you."

"Um... Thanks."

"Thats why we would love you to work with you today."

"No problem I would love to work with you guys too."

"Thank you Hanazono. I am actually planing to retire myself."

"Oh."

"Yes I have my eye on our top detective but I want you know him too."

"I see..."

"You meet him at the meeting today. He is actually at a crime scene right now."

"Who is he exactly?"

He chuckled. "Don't worry Hanazono he won't take over your department, even though he can. He is the best of the best."

"And so am I." I smiled I wasn't scared of Mister wonder boy.

He chuckled again. "Lets get to work now."

I looked at the time and looked at the table. Was I really the only girl here. As we sat we waited for Mister wonder boy to come. He was already one hour late. I looked at the empty seat and that's when the door opened.

"Sorry I am late..." He mumbled "I was finishing analyzing evidence from today's morning scene." My heart stopped. I knew that voice. I turned around and my eyes widen.

"Hanazono this was the guy I told you about." I stood up and kept my stare. But he didn't take a notice of me.

"Kazune..." I whispered.

"Kujyou." He said dryly and then looked at me indifferent. He then took a seat in his chair as I sat in mine. I didn't believe it.

"You guy's know each other?"

"Yes." I said as I looked at Kazune. He opened his folder to take papers out. It's seemed like he wasn't listening.

"Hananzono and I were work partners in Japan." He then said as no one talked. But he still didn't look up not even to see me. My heart tighten as I saw Kazune. He wasn't the one I knew. "Are we going to start or are we going to discuss Hanazono's past relationship with me." He stood up and started to write on the white board. I kept quiet. Kazune wasn't the same. He continued talked about the cities crimes etc. I kept looking at him as he talk. He spoke with no emotion nor did he look at me.

"What do you think Hanazono?" The chief asked. I looked confused I really wasn't paying attention. "About the plan of taking out the homeless center and adding a new station." He then he said after noticing I wasn't paying attention.

"Oh that.." I said.

"We are not here to daydream Hanazono. Just because your a boss now doesn't mean you have the right to not pay attention. Hanazono you're not being professional." Kazune said as he continued writing on the board. Every little bit of me wanted to slap him right there.

"Well excuse me." I started. " Something was keeping my mind in blank. But I think the idea of a new stations is quiet idiotic." Kazune stopped writing. "I think only a cold hearted would do such a thing to the homeless people. Anyhow the new station would also bring more costs to the city not only that put it bring attention to the press for doing such a heartless thing to the homeless. The new station is also isn't needed by the way this station is doing everything so well." I looked at the faces of the people, they were shocked. I looked at Kazune who put his marker and turn around and looked at me.

And just like me...He was mad. "Is that all you got Hanazono."

"Better than you Kazune."

"It's Kujyou." He said coldly. I stood up and and slammed my hand on the table. I couldn't take it. I wasn't used to Kazune hating me nor being rude to me. I looked at him. But he still looked indifferent to me and to everyone. This man wasn't Kazune.

"I-"

"Both of you guys have great ideas." The chief said as he cut me off. I sat back down and looked the other way. I couldn't look at Kazune anymore. I gulped as I felt my throat burn. I wanted to cry right there.

As the meeting ended I no longer made contact to Kazune. I stood up and walked to the boss's office I closed the door and sighed. I sat down and waited for the chief to come. I looked at the seat and thought this would be Kazune's office soon. And that's when the door opened.

"What do you think" The chief said as he sat down.

"He is perfect for the job. He just needs a heart." I said smiling. I had to do everything to hide my feelings for Kazune.

"I thought you would say the opposite."

"No, I don't hate him."

I walked out the station and sighed. I looked up to the sky and saw the falling snow flakes. I then walked straight and started to wait for a cab.

"Do you like me now." My eyes widen as I turn around to see Kazune. He looked at me still with his cold eyes. He walked towards me and stopped one feet away from me.

"No." I whispered loud enough for him to hear.

"Why not aren't I good enough for you now." I looked at him shocked. I felt full of anger. He was trying to say he became a monster for me. I then slapped him as I couldn't contain my anger.

"Your not Kazune... You're a bastard. How can you say that! I...I will never like you!" I practically yelled.

"Forget it." He plainly said. I kept looking at him as he walked away. I hear a car honk. I turned around and saw my cab. I got on the cab speechless again.

I did the wrong thing again.

"Flight 9798 now boarding destation Japan non-stop." The lady called. I stood up with my luggage at hand. I looked at the window and saw it was raining. For the past days I sat in my hotel doing noting and finally I get to leave him. I walked to the line of boarding passengers. I looked at the T.V and there was a news report. I felt something was wrong. Then I heard Kazune's name in the report. I looked the T.V.

"Kujyou help solve the case of the serial killer.. They found the man at a local Burger King." And that's when it hit me.

"Miss are you ready." The flight attendant asked as I was next to enter.

"No." I then dropped my bag and started to run. Everything made sense to me. He became a detective to be with me. He change to show me what he was capable of. I felt tears coming out of my eyes. I was the one who let him down this time. He became what his because I broke his heart.

And I broke my own.

I wiped my eyes and got in the nearest cab.

"Where to miss?" The diver asked.

"To the nearest Big 5."

I really didn't know why I even did what I did. I went to Big 5, got a hockey mask, and the most real gun I could find (of course it was a bb gun.) Then went to rob a jewel store well five of them. And I was in the 6th I heard the cops coming and I was full of energy. I threw the bag of jewels which made a mirror break. Who knew this was fun. I turned off all the lights so I would be unseen. I took out my bb gun and hid. I then heard someone come in... I closed my eyes.

"Who is in here?" I then opened them... I didn't have to rob another shop now.

"Where back were we started." I said still hidden, I couldn't stop smiling.

"Who is this?" Kazune said as he pointed the gun he still didn't recognize my voice.

I stood up and looked at him. He had his back on me. "Over here." I said. He looked dumb folded. I smiled and took of my mask. He dropped his gun as I walk towards him.

"Hananzono..." He whispered.

"It's Karin for you." He was still in shock. "Its the opposite now." I said as I walked to the broken cabinet and starting getting the rubies. "Your the cop and I am the robber." I then got my bag and put the rubies in the bag.

"Why are you doing this." Kazune said as he walk towards me and my bag.

"To prove my mistake." I then got the bag and droped all the jewels on the floor... yes even the ones I barley but in. "I don't care if your the robber and I am the cop or the other way around." I dropped my gun and contiuned. "I will always love you anyways." I smiled. He looked stunned. Then suddenly he grabbed my arm. "Kazune wha-" He then pulled me for a hug.

"You idiot." He mumbled. "You didn't have to do this you could just told me." I close my eyes and hugged him back.

"Kazune I am sorry I did. I was a reta-" He pushed me away and pressed his lips against mine. I froze but then kissed back. I pulled away and smiled as Kazune chuckled.

"I love you Miss Hanazono-san" He said as he kissed my hand.

I smiled and got my bb gun "Sorry Mister Kujyou but you'll have return all the this junk." I winked and walked out the back door."See ya next time."

"Wait!" Kazune exclaim.

"Can't you see I am running away from the law Mister Kujyou."

"Not with out this..." Kazune said as he picked up something from the floor and walked towards me.

"What is it?" I said before the cops smelled something fishy.

He got my hand and kissed it then he put on a beautiful emerald ring. "Bye soon to be Miss Kujyou."

I looked at him shocked. He then kissed my cheek and then my lips. He slowly brushed his lips against mine. He then softly licked my lip for entrance. He then slowly pushed away and planted butterfly kissing on my neck as he started to move his left hand under my shirt. I moaned of pleasure but I knew that if I didn't leave now we would be caught having sex. I push away."Sorry Mister Kujyou. I have to run lets continue another time." Then I ran out the back door. I smiled as I ran. I could used to this.

"Stop it Kazune!" I said as he shot me with his water gun. We both moved to America. Kazune was a outlaw in Japan and I was a outlaw in England. Now we live in a house in... I am not sure.

"Make me." He said as he shot me with the water gun.

I Never thought I would end up like this. I ran in the house and locked the door. "Hahahahaha now you can't come in." I went in our room and hid. We didn't even act like adults. I heard the door open and foot steps coming in. I got ready.

"Were ar-" I jumped on him and dropped him on the bed.

"Guess what!" I said as I was on top on him.

And this is how are new life began.

"What is it Miss Kujyou?"

I smiled "I am having your baby Mister Kujyou!"
