CHAPTER 6: WHY DID I DO THAT?
Ok, so I really need to thank i-heart-kaoru and BEELZENEF PWNS YOU ALL X 3 (or now The Girl Who Says WOOT x3) for correcting me on chapter 5! I posted the chapter for my other Ouran story called Top Secret and I never would have known if they didn't tell me! Thank you so much! I loves you and everyone else that reviewed! Here ya go!
Mori's POV
As I cuddled with Mai on that couch, I looked over at Mitsukuni. He was eating cake, but he looked all alone. I saw his face, and it was sad. He'd looked that way a few times before this whenever I was with Mai, but I never actually paid attention to it. I felt so selfish now. I looked over at Mai. She looked so happy, but Mitsukuni still came first. I knew what I had to do now. Mai probably wouldn't take it easy, and neither would I.
Mai's POV
As Hikaru and Haruhi had their first date, Mori and I walked around together too. Mori seemed to be distant, though, and not his usual self. We held hands, but he didn't look at me a lot. Only once or twice did our eyes connect. Usually, we always seemed to be staring at each other. He bought me ice cream, but he was quieter than usual. I would rather have him talk to me than have ice cream.
He walked over to a bench at a nearby park, and I followed him. There were trees close to those benches.
"Mai…" this time he looked me in the eyes. "Mai… I can't do this. I can't… be with you anymore. I need- I have to… well, - Mitsukuni… I have to take care of him."
"I could help," my voice was monotone.
"I don't need your help."
He wasn't looking at me now.
"I don't want you-"
"You don't – want me?"
"No, well I…"
"That changes things."
I couldn't think straight. What was he saying?
"Did I do something wrong?" I asked.
"No, it's just…" he sighed. "Bye, Mai," he said as he walked away.
It was just me, all alone. There were other people at this park walking by, but it felt like they weren't there. It felt like I was the only one left with no one else to be with. I looked up at the sky just as it started to rain. Thunder started clapping and lightning flashed in the distance. The lighting suddenly hit about 3 feet away from my bench, and it was so loud and terrifying. I was shaking extremely hard. I needed a place to hide, but where?
I looked around franticly. A church. I ran towards it and opened the door, which was already slightly open, but I never questioned it. Suddenly, I had a thought that I'd been here before, but I couldn't be sure. The images in my mind were blurry. At the first door I saw, I ran inside. It was a small door, probably only half as tall and half as wide as a regular door, but I could still fit inside. It was a storage cabinet. I sat there in fright and without feeling until I heard familiar voices.
I opened the small door slowly. I stepped out.
"Hikaru. Haruhi."
Was that really my voice? It sounded lifeless. I felt lifeless. Haruhi and Hikaru were leaving the church to get into his limo, but they turned around when they heard me.
"Mai?" Haruhi asked.
She looked worried. I walked over as if in a trance.
"Where's Mori-sempai?" Hikaru asked.
It felt like a huge dose of pain went through me. His words were like a stab in the heart. I actually bothered to raise my shoulders up and down to say I didn't know.
"Come with us."
As I walked outside, it was nice to actually see one good thing: the storm was over. I stepped into the limo. I was too hurt to notice that this was my first time in one. I gave Haruhi and Hikaru their distance. I didn't look at them, but I could feel them looking at me.
When we got back, Tamaki hugged his "daughters" saying he was so worried. I wasn't sure if I liked him calling me that, but I didn't really want to be hugged right now. Hikaru, Kaoru, and Haruhi stayed there, and the rest of us went to Tamaki's mansion because he had invited us. I quickly went to the room I was given for the stay. I didn't have to share it with anyone, and I wanted to be alone. I felt like singing since it helps me to overcome pain, so I did.
The song's called Breakin' at the Cracks by the way (by Colbie Caillat O.o)
I think you took my heart away when you said you're leaving
Cause right now I am hurting all over again
And I never thought that I'd be in these places on this day
And now I don't know how much more that I can take
I'm breaking at the cracks
And everything goes black
It's another heart attack
And I can't handle that
Whoa Love I need you back
I know that I'll get through this
The feeling is stronger somehow
I got my feet back on the ground
And I'm turning around
And I'll be everything you always said that I could be
If only you'll be waiting right here for me patiently
I'm breaking at the cracks
And everything goes black
It's another heart attack
And I can't handle that
Whoa Love I need you back
Oh whenever would I take you back,
My heart was filled with love
And I wipe these tears and I will laugh
If only I could make it last
Breaking at the cracks
And everything goes black
It's another heart attack
And I can't handle that
Whoa Love I need you back
I need you back
I need you back
I need you back...
After I was finished, I felt my eyes filling up with tears. I knelt down and allowed one to fall down my face. I hadn't allowed myself to cry in a while. Another one fell, and another, and another… and then it felt like my world turned black with sadness.
