Unexpected Love
Chapter 6
He mustn't lose focus! He mustn't lose focus! Yuu kept repeating to himself during P.E.
He was so determined earlier in the library. But during P.E, when he saw Miki at the other end of the school multipurpose hall with the rest of the girls, all of it was forgottened in the space of that few seconds. His heart had skipped a beat.
Seeing Miki in her gym clothes reminded him of the day when he saw her at the park. She looked amazing back then, and now she still looked amazing.
Yuu turned back to the game at hand. He was playing basketball with the rest of the guys. So far his side was winning. Yuu was focusing all his energy and attention in the game in the hopes that he could get Miki out of his mind.
He moved among the players. He dribbled, he shot a 3 point score. He dribbled again and did a slam dunk. To the others he seemed unstoppable. But inside Yuu just kept on repeating to himself to focus.
Soon, he was faced with Ginta. Ginta was also in their class. How unfortunate for Yuu. Suddenly he pictured Miki smiling up at Ginta. A look of determination came over Yuu. He managed to dodge Ginta's block. That gave Yuu just a little satisfaction.
A sudden scream from the other end of the hall stopped the game. Yuu glanced at the direction of the scream. Some sort of commotion was happening at the girls' side of the hall.
The girls moved aside and Yuu saw that someone was lying on the floor unconscious. People were starting to gather. Yuu ran over as well. When he saw who was lying on the floor, he thought his heart may just stop beating. It was Miki!
Miki wasn't looking when a basketball hit her face and then she completely passed out! Without a single thought except that Miki was hurt, Yuu scooped Miki up in his arms and demanded to know where's the school's clinic. Somebody told him the direction. It was Meiko. Soon he was striding away with Miki towards the clinic. Meiko followed silently behind. All the while, his heart was pounding and for the second time he forgot to stay focus.
The school nurse looked shocked when she saw Yuu with Miki in his arms. The nurse ushered him in and he lay Miki gently on the bed. The nurse inspected Miki,"She has a slight bump on her forehead but nothing major. Right now what she needs is rest. She'll come around soon," the nurse turned to look at Yuu. "Why don't you go and change."
Yuu looked blankly at the nurse. He was still feeling a little shock. He wanted to stay but he didn't know what he could do for Miki. "Yuu? Maybe you should go and change. I'll take care of Miki," Yuu turned to look at who had spoken. It was Meiko. He hadn't noticed that she had followed. Yuu nodded gratefully.
Yuu went off to change. He planned to check on Miki after that. Half an hour later, after a quick shower and change, he was On his way back to the clinic, Yuu slowed down and thought about his promise to himself earlier. Whatever happened to his focus? It was forgottened as soon as this happened. Miki easily took away his focus without even uttering a word. She brought out the protective side of him that he never knew he had it in him.
Meiko was just coming out of the clinic. "Yuu?"
"How is she?" Yuu asked, trying not to look too worried.
"She's inside," Meiko smiled at him. She moved aside to let him in.
Yuu walked in. He didn't hear the door close silently behind him. His eyes were trained on the girl lying in the bed behind the drapes. He reached out to pull the drapes aside. Miki had her eyes closed.
"Miki? Are you asleep?" Yuu moved silently towards her. He stood there watching her. The window was open and a slight breeze was blowing gently, ruffling her hair a little.
Time stood still for a moment. Yuu just stared at Miki's sleeping figure. She looked so enchanting. When she was awake she was always full of energy and unpredictable emotions. But now with her lying there silently, so peaceful in her sleep, Yuu could not take his eyes away from her.
Yuu couldn't help himself. Without any conscious thought, Yuu leaned over Miki and kissed her on the lips. He kissed her gently, savouring the soft fullness of her lips. He could taste the sweetness that was Miki. His Miki.
He felt her stir under the kiss. Yuu came to his senses. He stopped kissing her and moved away from her. Yuu raised his hand and touched his own lips at the realisation of what he just did. He could still feel Miki. The sensation rocked the very foundations of his being. Suddenly he just didn't know what to think or feel anymore. He had to think.
Yuu left Miki. Some time during the kiss, Miki must have awoken. But she continued to feign sleep. That was for the best. He didn't think he could answer Miki's questions right then either.
Yuu walked quickly out of the school. Somewhere on the school grounds, Yuu suddenly stopped. A feeling of utter acceptance came to him. His Miki. He had said that in his mind while he had kissed Miki. His Miki.
Yuu started to shake inside. Whether he wanted to or not, Yuu had finally succumbed to his attraction for Miki. It was no use denying it anymore. Yuu cannot be a brother to Miki because he liked Miki more than just a sister.
