CHAPTER 15 REVIEW RESPONSES (REVIEWS WRITTEN ON CHAPTER 15):
This means I would've responded to your review in the beginning of this chapter
Snivy8276: Haha, yesss! I tried to make insults. But I'm not particularly good with making up insults. So I hope it was okay? & I'm as tensed as you & misaki too! I hope this chapter answers your questions (If they recognize each other, if it's tora or takumi, etc.) ! But stay tuned, because things are going to get heated up ;) Do I update quick? I think that I update so sloww! & you're so sweet QQ You really know how to flatter me. I'd write for months just to get reviews from you xD
IamGIO: I don't knowww~ Is it Tora? Or is it Takumi? This chapter will answer that. Actually this chapter will answer most of your questions. Haha. So hopefully you liked it! I know I can be pretty confusing, or leave out some things, so I always like to hear my readers' questions/comments about the story. Your review definitely made my think harder about the story line, so there aren't many holes in the plot. Thanks a lot (:
shannonjacob21: Okay, so, I kind of made this chapter a bit slow. So nothing really happens. Let me know if I should make it a bit more exciting next chapter, okay? Thanks ;) And I also hope that I wasn't too slow in updating the story this time. I know I like to disappear for a long time, but this time I'll try to finish at least 4 more chapters this month. No promises though!
SakKim98: Okay, so right now, I'm a bit confused, because I thought I remembered writing a response to your review, but it isn't here! Anyways~ Thank youuuu for always flattering me with all these compliments! I'm hardly great at describing. I'm probably the worst person to play games like heads up with.
Mimi: Hopefully this update was fast enough? I always just slack off for like 2 days for the review responses, because I write the responses on fanfic. So I write the actual story on google docs, then transfer it to libre office, transfer the libre document to , and then I add in the beginning messages and ending ones. So most of the time I forget to save it, and then have to start over again QQ This is probably the fourth time during this chapter that I've rewritten this response. And each time it changes -.- ANYWAYS. I'm done rambling on. Sorry !
Meto Scarlett: Oh my god.. I'm so in love with you ! Haha, thanks for appreciating the time and work I put into writing this fanfic! ( I know I say this a lot, but...) I REALLY APPRECIATE YOU, OKAY? & I'm sorry if I ruined you expectation of this chapter...
Unknown: I knoowwww, apparently I have a talent of killing people. Haha, anyways, I'm trying to update faster, due to my long break. So keep a look out for new chapters ~
no . one . special : Well, I won't tell you what's going to happen, but I hope you enjoy this chapter. It'll answer some of your questionss~ Send me your predictions okay? I love reading them ;)
nikunjonafiun: I know... I'm really hooked on writing cliffhangers. This chapter doesn't have a cliffhanger though (I don't think it does... unless you do. But I'm pretty sure it isn't a cliffhanger).
Jui2014: I'm not trying to kill you! You're one of my most loyal readers QQ I love you too much to kill you. Unless I love you to the point in which I feel the need to kill you. But don't die on me okay? :c I need your support to continue writing, or else you'll leave a hole in my heart!
Winnie Tang: Ahhhhhhh! Omg, I knoww! I was so excited when I wrote it too! :D Finally, my two favorite characters meet. But of course, it isn't that simple... wink wink. You'll understand once you read this chapter ! I really need to go update Wattpad though. I feel bad for neglecting my fellow readers there. Hopefully they'll forgive me QQ
Mademoiselle0985: Hahahaha, you seem to like all of my chapters. Even the bad ones. ;) Thanks for your support though! I know the feeling of reading cliffhangers though. It's a total love-hate relationship, am I right? xD
dinni2002: Omg! Don't die on me! You must live to read the ending to my fanfic!
aqsa . shahanii . 123: You're not the only one I'm killing. Hahaha, it's one of my habits ( to kill people by not updating and making cliffhangers ) . MUAHAHAHAHAH , NO ONE SHALL LIVE! Jk. I love you all too much. ;)
Guest: I am finally responding to all of the reviews I've been neglecting! Please praise me by writing another review (: I love getting praised (almost like a puppy). LOL . & You're right. I do read them. In fact, I check everyday for new ones, even when I'm on a writing break.
CHAPTER 14 REVIEW RESPONSES (REVIEWS WRITTEN ON CHAPTER 14):
This means I would've responded to your review in the beginning of chapter 15
Sakkim98: Please don't poke me QQ & thanks for complimenting me! I know I was gone for a while, but I'm back now! So happy for such a loyal reader like you for sticking with me even when I take my breaks! Thanks for reading 3
Shannonjacob21: Thankkkk youuu! ^^ I wanted to make up for the time that I was gone. So I'm glad you liked it!
Snivy8276: Oh my goshh! Happy late birthday! You're such a nice person QQ This is can barely be considered a present! And oh my gosh, I have a fanbase?! Whatt? I don't think I'm ready to have a fanbase. My writing isn't even that good :c But I love the name EReaders. I couldn't have come up with a better one. Actually, it's pretty cute, haha. & I'm sure others will understand the meaning of it. I hope you had a fantastic birthday! You didn't waste my time at all. In fact, I always enjoy reading the longer reviews more than the shorter ones. (Don't get me wrong, I love all reviews, but it just seems like there was more heart and time put into it... you know?) Please continue writing me reviewss! Even if it's about the most random things!
Nikunjonafiun: Haha, it wasn't just my mind that told me to update! Even during my breaks, many of my readers will send me reviews to update, which motivates me even more. Btw, even during my breaks, I check fanfic almost everyday to see the new reviews. I never liked writing until I got motivated by readers like you! That's why I say that yall are the real MVPs! 3 Hope you liked this chapter!
Winnie Tang: I hope you liked this chapter, considering you wanted Misaki to meet Takumi! Haha, yea, I tried to add some kind of humor. Too much drama-writing makes my head go crazy. But as a fellow reader, reading about too much drama also makes my head go crazy. But thanks for always keeping faith! Hopefully you'll continue supporting me!
Luna-Chi: You make me blush so much. All of your compliments! Omg, I'm hardly that good. From the first sentence of your review, I was smiling. And you were pretty much right on about this chapter. I don't really know how many chapters I have left. I usually just write and see how it goes. I have a list of things I like to incorporate into the story tho (Like Misa meeting Takumi). But I think AT LEAST 10 chapters. I have alot of things on the list... so yea. Haha, I think I might cry while writing the last chapter too. This is my first fanfic ever... so I would say yes, it is my first MisaxUsui fanfic. I'm not currently planning on stopping. But I know that I will be having some breaks here and there, like I already have. Whatever your idea is, you should write it. Look at me, I thought I had a stupid idea, but you like it. I truly hope you do write it, I'd love to read your fanfic, based on your reviews! Sorry... this is a bit long... and late of a response.
no . one . special: I'm glad that I ALMOST killed you. Not fully, haha. I know it was a long break, but now I'm back for a little bit! I love replying to reviews too! I check fanfic every day just to see if there are new reviews to read! That's how much reviews mean to me. So keep reviewing and supporting me, okay? Thanks love 3 Btw, you're someone special in my heart (Referring to your name)
IamGIO: I wouldn't bare to see Usui with another woman either T_T But I hope you liked this chapter! It'll answer your question (Referring to "MISAKI ARE YOU READY TO MEET YOUR BELOVED?")
AlastairRevel: Haha, I'm glad that my story is stuck in your mind. I'm hardly that good tho! I love this type of plot too. Too bad there aren't many plots like this on fanfic (one of the reasons why I wrote this). But I hope you liked this chapter! Watch out for the next chapter 3 Thanks for reviewing (:
p . s . bubbles: Well, I guess this chapter answers your question? I hope it does! & don't die from waiting. How can you read my fanfic if you're dead? QQ & I love you! You're always complimenting my fanfic, and for supporting me 3 Thank youuu!
Unknown: I hope this chapter meets your expectations! I kind of rushed it... so yea... But please continue supporting me by writing reviews! Even when I'm on a break. Thanks for your review, unknown 3
Hitorikuroneko: Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh myyyyyyyyyyyyyyy goooooooooooooooooodddddddddd! I hope you liked this chapter (: I am so sorry if this was a cliffhanger. Haha. It kind of just happens when I write the endings... I'll try to update faster so you don't need to weep for a long time. Haha. Keep reviewing okay? 3
Dinni2002: I updated! Hopefully you liked this chapter. If you have any suggestions/comments/any random thoughts , please write me a review about this chapter (unless you already did... in which case, Thanks c: ) But anyways, Thank you for supporting me !
MetoScarlet: First of all, I just want to thank you for always supporting me, even during my longgggggggg breaks QQ You've been there for me for so long. & I love reading your reviews (: Hopefully this was "another great chapter" for you!
justacrazywriter: I know I know. My updates are super long... but I hope they're not long enough to kill you! Keep sending me reviews, so I know you're still alive :P
Apologies
The two people stared into each other's eyes for god knows how long. It seems like hours... days... and even years went by.
Misaki couldn't think. Her mind was in ruins. She had just found out who Hiku and Miku were. And now... this man with emerald eyes showed up. Everything about this man screamed Usui. His eyes, his voices, the way he stood. R-r-relax. It can't be him. He should be in the ballroom by now. Keep calm. Think of something, Misaki. Remember, no one can know who you are. That includes your face, your name, even your voice cannot be heard.
Misaki's eyes finally got used to the bright light, and was able to see the man clearly now. He stood with confidence, not too much, but not too little. His suit complimented his body very well. Underneath the dark blue jacket, he wore a white cotton button down shirt that was tucked into dark blue pants. The tie that was snugly tucked into the jacket was a lighter shade of blue than the jacket itself. In the left pocket of the jacket was a white handkerchief that seemed to fit perfectly into the pocket. The entire suit seemed to fit him like a glove. It accentuated his broad shoulders and slim but muscular body. He had distinct cheekbones and an angular jaw, his pale skin made him look devilishly handsome. He had the kind of face that stopped you in your tracks. He wore a simple black mask that covered only his eyes. His lime green hair was slicked back, which seemed to make his emerald eyes pop out from his other features even more.
Usui on the other hand was also frantically trying to figure out who the woman before him was. Her eyes reminded him so much of her. The way her eyes could unlock any secrets hidden beneath his eyes. How it could simply make him break apart. Her eyes… no. It's not her. She's dead. Think rationally Takumi. She's very suspicious. Don't let her eyes fool you. Only a couple people are your weaknesses, and she's not one of them. Just look at her. Why is she even in Hiku and Miku's room? Who is she?
Usui carefully examined every physical aspect of her. The strapless ivory dress she wore tightly wrapped around her body from her bust to her hips, almost like a second skin. Below the hip, the dress flared out in ruffles. The mermaid dress seemed to be perfect for her type of body. Her curled blonde hair cascaded delicately onto her left side. Her mask rested on the arch of her nose. It covered only the top half of her head. The mask itself was white, with red designed on it. On the top left corner was a red rose that seemed to match the color of her lips. The rose's leaves were gold, which complemented her amber eyes. Whenever she blinked, it allowed her eyelashes to flutter like the wings of a butterfly. Her high cheek bones were a tint of pink that he hadn't seen in ages. She wasn't just flawless in her bone structure, her skin was like silk over glass and she radiated an intelligent beauty.
"What are you doing here? You're not supposed to be here," Usui asked with a certain kind of authority.
Misaki: I'm sorry. I got a bit lost. I think I took a wrong turn somewhere, and the door to this room was open.
IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE! MUST READ!
Whenever there's a name, followed by a colon in bold, it means that the person is communicating in sign language. That means instead of talking, the person is using their hands to communicate.
Example for sign language:
Usui: Hello all EReaders. I'm currently communicating in sign language here.
If it's just regular talking (quotation marks) in bold, then they're saying it without using the voice. Some people can lip read, meaning they can make out the words a person is saying just by observing the way their lips move, or their facial reactions.
Example of lip reading/ talking without sound:
Misaki shook her head. "This is me currently talking without my voice," Misaki explained. "This means that only people who know how to lip read can understand me."
If you have any questions, please write me a review. Or if you think there's a better way to show that it's sign language/lip reading, then also let me know. Thanks! Sorry for any inconvenience.
Good thinking Misaki. This way, you don't have to talk to anyone with your voice, since voices are one of the most distinctive features of a person.
To say Usui was shocked would be a complete understatement. Of course he'd never expected the woman to have such dazzling eyes, but to think she was deaf was shocking. Nonetheless, Usui wasn't the type of man to judge or pity a person because of their capabilities or disabilities. It was just that it was surprising when she started to sign him.
"Sorry," Usui started, but then stopped.
Misaki: It's fine
She gave the stranger in front of her a polite smile. Very smooth. I'm proud of myself.
Usui just stood there aghast at how she was able to respond back.
Usui: You can lip read?
Misaki was almost just as surprised when he signed back to her. Out of everyone to meet at the ball, of course she had to meet the one person who could sign. After what seemed like forever, Misaki finally got out of her shocked state. Misaki started to sign parts of words, but replaced it with others. She wasn't sure how to respond. Wow, I didn't think he'd know how to sign. Well, don't say anything wrong. Think closely about each word you're going to sign, Misaki! One wrong word and everything will go wrong.
Misaki: Ah, yea… I learned when I was younger. It's quite useful.
Technically, I'm not lying. I learned when I was younger, and this situation just proved its usefulness, Misaki thought as she tried to lessen the burden of her lies. After all, she was a very ethical person. She believed in karma strongly. Treat others nicely, and in return, you shall be treated nicely.
"I see," Usui started. "I can lip read too, so if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask. First of all," he extending his hand out to Misaki. "We should go where everyone's waiting for us, am I right?"
"Ahh, you're right." Misaki accepted his extended hand. Okay Misaki, don't get too enticed by the man's eyes, or just any of his... beautifully... perfect- ugly qualities. Misaki shook her head violently. Alright, just don't think about his qualities. Imagine an ugly troll. An ugly troll with hideously emerald eyes that could catch your attention from a mile away. Anyways, you need to ask about Hiku and Miku. T-they can't be his children. I mean they could, but-
Usui noticed the blonde woman lost in her own world. He watched as she changed from completely happy, to surprised, to angry, and then to confused. Usui chuckled at how… different she was from other women he had met. He waved his hand in front of her face, and her face turned back to shock. "What's on your mind?"
"I-I-I was just thinking a-about the moon," Misaki pointed to the left of her. She had thought she dodged the question very well, until the man started laughing.
"Y-you're," Usui chuckled mid-sentence. "You're quite the liar, aren't you?"
Misaki didn't understand what he was talking about… until she looked to the left of her. It's a wall, talked about the moon, and pointed to the wall. Great… you had a 50/50 chance of getting it right. You should've looked up before you pointed! Misaki gave in, knowing that she couldn't lie herself out of this situation. She had been found out, and in the worst possible way. "Yea, I know I am." She looked down at the ground.
The woman in front of Usui looked down, and he watched as her lips curved into a pout. Cute. "But you're surprisingly honest for a liar." Usui subconsciously patted the woman on her head, who looked up at him even more surprised than she was earlier. Usui cleared his throat and quickly retracted his hand. "Anyway, what's really on your mind?"
"Well, uhm…" Misaki started. Well, you might as well ask him. He'll figure out you're lying in a split second. Speaking of which, we need to improve your lying skills. "You know… that one room I was in…?"
"The one you weren't supposed to be in?" Usui arched an eyebrow.
"Hey, you're just as equally guilty. You were there too," Misaki argued.
"Yes yes, you got me. Anyways, what about that room?"
"W-well. I stumbled upon it. And there was this picture of these two kids…"
"And you want to know who they are?" Usui finished for Misaki.
"Well...yea…" Misaki admitted. "I mean, I'm sure they were just guests here at Miyabigaoka, but still…"
"They're not guests." Usui corrected. "They live here. You don't know them?"
"Well, it's not like there is always news about the royal family." Not after that incident happened, Misaki almost said aloud.
"Well," Usui pretended to think hard. "I suppose there's not much, is there? I suppose I'll tell you then."
"You will?" Misaki asked like an excited little child. "I mean, you will?" Misaki asked in a more appropriate manner, realizing how silly she must've looked earlier.
Usui laughed at how adorably lovable the lady was. "Actually, I don't think I want to anymore," Usui smirked. "Maybe I might change my mind if you keep me company all night long."
"Whaaattt?" Misaki didn't think she heard him right. After all, who in their right mind would ask a stranger to spend the night with them. "E-excuse me. But I am not just some bimbo that would sleep with you for information. I cannot believe you had the audacity to ask anyone a question like that." Misaki rose her right hand up, attempting to slap him. But the man caught her hand before it hit his left cheek.
Usui couldn't hold it in anymore. He started laughing hard, doing so aggravated the woman even more. "Y-you're just so cute." Usui took her hand that he was holding and brought it to his lips. "When I meant all night, I meant all night during the ball. Did you think I also meant… in bed?" His eyes seemed to glint when he asked the last part.
"W-well. O-of course not…" Misaki averted her eyes from his piercing gaze. Oh my god. Misaki, honestly, you couldn't have messed up more than this. "I-I'm sorry. It's just t-that-"
Just as Misaki was in the middle of her sentence, Usui bent down to her height as his lips touched her right cheek. It was just a quick peck on the cheek, but to Misaki, it sent shivers down her spine. Her right cheek seemed to feel hotter than ever.
"I'll take that as your apology then," Usui smirked, and then left Misaki standing in the middle of the hallway, holding her right cheek in her hand. "If we don't hurry, the ball will be over before we get there!"
Okay, okay. I know the whole lip reading/ sign language thing is super confusing, and wouldn't make sense in real life, but please bare with me!
Thanks again everyone for your support!
Hope you enjoyed this chapter!
As usual, write me a review!
They are the sole reason I write~
