Arranged Marriage : Chapter Twelve
"Why...Why are you trying to take him away?" Whispered Mio her voice full of pain.
"I'll take him back , I won't let you have him..." Whispered Mio as her eyes filled with tears.
Dark...Dark belongs with me..."Whispered Mio as her expression now reflected the very meaning of anguish and sorrow.
"I'll never allow you...or anyone else to come between us. I'll make sure you lose everything , you'll have nothing but pain when I'm through with you , Riku Harada..." Whispered Mio as she left the room silently.
Dark and Daisuke's Pov
Dark and Daisuke were seated in the living room when Mio walked in.
"Is she okay?" Asked Dark turning to look at Mio.
Mio nodded and smiled fakely as she sat down.
"Mio , will Mi---" Daisuke stopped himself.
"Daisuke , that was your last strike. You lose this round , I guess you'll just have to try harder in the next round."
Daisuke put his head down in depression as Dark couldn't help but smirk at his loss.
"Dark , that was your last strike too , so Riku wins this round."
Dark slumped in his chair at his loss now and Daisuke couldn't help but feel better that they both lost.
Riku's Pov ( Hours later )
"Ughhhh..." Groaned Riku as she sat up in her bed.
"How did I---- Oh yeah , I remember now." Said Riku as images of what had happened flashed through her mind.
Riku moved to get off of her bed when she felt something wet on the bed sheets. Riku lifted some of the pillows covering it and stared at the wet spots. They were't completely wet , but the spots were damp.
"What is that?" Thought Riku alloud as she felt the spots."
Riku smelt the damp spots and realized what they were.
"Tears?" Wondered Riku alloud.
/ "Was I crying? NO , it wasn't me , but who was crying? " / Wondered Riku as she stared at the bed sheets.
Riku stared for a moment longer before shaking it off.
/ "It doesn't matter right? It's not like knowing who was crying would matter right?" / Thought Riku as she got up from her bed.
Riku went into the bathroom and brushed through her hair quickly. After she headed out of her room walking.
Riku was walking in the halls when se realized something.
"Wait , the game! What happened while I was asleep?" Thought Riku alloud as she started to walk faster in search of everyone else.
Riku was now running throught he halls when she slipped and landed roughly.
"Ouch..." Groaned Riku as she began getting up.
Riku got up and started to search for the others once again. Riku was walking when she bumped into Mio.
Riku and Mio's Pov
"I'm sor---" Riku stopped herself.
Mio was glaring at Riku and Riku had no idea why.
"Don't interfere with me and Dark." Stated Mio crossing her arms.
"And just what do you mean by that?" Asked Riku puzzled by her meaning.
"Don't mess around , I know you like Dark Riku." Said Mio her glare growing more intense by the second.
"I may like Dark a little , but that even if we both like him it's his choice who he wants to be with." Said Riku now glaring harshly at Mio.
Riku's words sliced through her like a knife. Mio winced at her words but she did not give in.
"I...I love Dark , and I'm willing to do anything it takes to make you give up." Said Mio as she pulled out something from her pocket.
Riku stared at her hand.
"What's in your hand?" Asked Riku.
Mio smirked darkly and revealed what she held.
Riku's eyes widened at what she held.
Mio held one of her most precious possesions. It was her grandmothers necklace , the necklace with her granmothers initials on it.
Riku felt around her neck but the necklace wasn't there.
"Give that back!" Shouted Riku , now full of rage.
"Hmph , if you want it back then you'll have to win thi---"
"Mio!" Shouted a voice as it came closer.
Mio and Riku both turned toward the voice and saw a young man rushing over.
The figure moved towards Mio and tried to hold onto her.
Mio tried to struggle out of his grasp but couldn't escape.
"Why did you follow me here?" Asked Mio now struggling.
"Where's Dark?" Asked the young man.
"Why should I tell you?" Asked Mio.
"Tell me where he is!" Shouted the man.
"No!" Shouted Mio still struggling.
"What's wrong?" Came Dark's voice as he walked into the scene.
Dark looked at the scene and quickly spotted the young man with Mio.
"Satoshi?" Asked Dark shocked.
"Satoshi? Is that his na--"
Riku was cut off by Dark grabbing Riku and running from the scene.
Dark and Riku's Pov
"Dark , what's wrong with you?" Asked Riku.
Dark ran into his room and quickly shut and locked the door.
"That's Satoshi Hikari , our families have been having a sort of rivalry for many generations." Said Dark as he sat down on his bed.
"Why?" Asked Riku.
"Satoshi and I are rivals because of our parents will , and I don't know how this started though. Anyways , that's why I needed a wife so soon. I needed a wife in order to become the king , and since our parents are rivals they wanted both of us to become king before the other." Said Dark.
"So , why is Satoshi angry at you?" Asked Riku.
"Well..." Started Dark.
"What did you do?" Asked Riku suspiciously.
"I don't know..." Said Dark.
"How could you not know?" Asked Riku shocked.
"Well , there was that one time I stole his stuff , and then I played pranks on him when we were little , and I stole his paints once , and , and..." Dark trailed off.
Riku began to twitch in annoyance.
"Dark! I bet he's angry at you for everything by now!" Shouted Riku.
"Well anyways , I forgot to mention that you won the first round of the game." Said Dark.
"I did?" Asked Riku in amazement.
Dark nodded and started to smirk.
"What do you want?" Asked Riku.
"Nothing much , it's just that it's time to play my game." Said Dark mischieviously.
"A-And just what kind of twisted game is it?" Asked Riku , as Dark smirked.
