No More Secrets

Shun's POV

I immediately barged in the doors not caring about the Fay around me staring at me as I looked for him. As soon as our eyes met as he stood on the top of the stairs talking to Leo, I frowned at him.

"Where's Alice?" I questioned.

"Please do come in Shun." Luke replied emotionless as I started to climb to the stop of the stairs so that we could stare at each other face to face.

"You're avoiding the question, where is Alice?" I repeated once more as he sighed.

"I haven't seen her Shun; she's probably just avoiding you after how upset you made her."

"That wouldn't have happened, had you not told her any of this!" I exclaimed as I moved closer to him, but then Leo stood in my way.

"Leo stand down," Luke replied laying a hand on Leo's shoulder as he moved aside.

"The last time I saw Alice, she came here to ask me to take her to the Winter Queen." Luke replied and my eyes widen.

"What!?" I exclaimed.

"I refused though as I am not welcomed there and because of my past relationship with the Winter Queen." Luke replied and I gave a hollow laugh.

"You damn right you shouldn't got there. I know you did to her . . . Despite my feelings of dislike toward her, I won't ever forget how badly you hurt her when she had loved you so much. You threw her away the moment she failed to become your Queen. It was like you didn't even loved her, because all you did was use her and ruined her." I stated as I headed downstairs, but then he spoke.

"You're wrong . . . I loved her and I would have given anything to be with her, but my court and future Summer Queen come first. If anything you stole my love the moment our relationship ended." Luke replied as I gave a small laugh and turned back to her.

"Well lucky you the relationship ended the moment I realized she used me, just like you used her. She's all yours Luke." I smirked as I walked out the door and left Luke's court.

I felt angry inside, but I eventually started to calm myself down and focus on the main problem at hand. Finding Alice . . . Suddenly though I felt my phone vibrating in my jacket. As I pulled out my phone I realized it was a text from Alice. I quickly read it and hoped it would tell me where she is.

"We need to talk . . . Meet me at Misaki's Café when you can." She texted.

Without thinking twice I started to head over there as fast as I could. So many questioned ran through my mind. Would she take me back? What did Runo mean by Alice being hurt before? Did she really visit the Winter Queen? If so, what will is it that she knows now? So many questions ran through my head, but hopefully when I meet Alice, they will be answered.

Alice's POV

"Thank you Fang for taking me there." I replied as he grinned like usually as we stood inn front of Misaki's café.

"Don't forget though that you owe me a favor." He grinned as I nodded to him and was about to enter the café, until he spoke.

"Maybe your right about me . . ." He spoke suddenly as I turned my attention to him as he looked off into the distance not looking at me as he spoke.

"I'm not the same Dark King I once was anymore. What I did to Shun and you was minor compared to what I used to do in the past. Back then I probably wouldn't have cared what would have happened to you or Shun. I would have probably killed both of you to satisfy my court." He replied as that comment made me shiver as he then turned to me and laugh.

"Of course now I don't have thoughts like that anymore. I'm not sure why, but I think I noticed it after Shun and I had an understanding with each other. I guess back then you could call us friends, but now we're just acquaintances. It was when you had pointed it out to me that I realized how much I had changed. I'm not sure if this change is really a good thing for me, but I don't mind it as it's nice." He explained.

I stared at him and saw a faint smile on his face. I didn't exactly understand why he was telling me this, but I'm glad to hear he doesn't mind being the way he is now. Still though, I'm not so sure I can find it in me to forgive him just yet for what he did to Shun, but maybe someday I can though. I saw him turn toward me and actually give a sincere smile as I smiled to him and nodded.

"That being said, do not forget you are in debt to me Alice. I may have changed, but I am still the Dark King and as of right now you owe me." He grinned making my expression changed.

I watched as he grinned and then turned away leaving me speechless as I watched him walk away. Once I entered the café Runo greeted me like usual, but then I notice Runo standing beside Dan as he was in a booth eating and talking to her.

"ALICE!" He screamed with him waving like a dummy with food in his mouth.

I watched as Runo hit him on the side of the head and they started to go at it again, until I went over to them and calmed them down. I felt myself suddenly laugh and it felt like ages since I last laughed like this. For a while they made me forget everything that was stressing me out, but soon realization kicked in and I just couldn't keep pushing it away anymore. As Runo went to serve another table, I sat down with Dan and we began to talk.

"So how is the new happy couple doing?" Dan replied with a grin as I gave a small laugh and stared down at the table saying nothing.

"Alice?" Dan replied as I looked up to him and saw concern in his eyes as I put my hands up in defense.

"We're fine like normal, I mean nothings really changed between us." I lied and to my surprise Dan saw right through it.

"I know you're lying Alice . . . Shun told me a few days ago that you guys sort of hit a rough patch. I just wanted to know how you're doing compared to him." Dan replied and I suddenly felt my heart ache as I tried to not act so sad and weak in front of him as I was slowly breaking down inside.

"I'm fine I'm just . . ." I spoke.

"Just?"

"Confused maybe? I'm not sure anymore . . . Maybe it just doesn't seem real to me that Shun and I are actually dating. Maybe I'm scared of screwing things up for us. I mean maybe we're rushing into the whole more than friends thing and that maybe it's best if we just stay friends." I explained to him as Dan burst into laughter.

I suddenly felt embarrassed as I was now as red as a tomato as he laughed at me. Maybe it was a mistake telling him something like this. As he wiped a tear from his eye he spoke.

"I didn't mean to laugh that hard, but I mean come on Alice!" Dan exclaimed as he smiled to me as I looked confused.

"What?" I asked innocently.

"Why on Earth would you think like that!? You two rushing into a relationship to fast! Please! Shun's been crushing on you way before the battle with Hal-G! Plus you two for a while were inseparable with guys going on walks, talking, and hanging out. It took forever for you guys to get together, when you should have been together sooner!" Dan explained much to my surprise as I stared at him shocked as he continued.

"Look for as long as I've known Shun, I know he's not the type of guys that can express his feelings very well. He never really admitted it to me about him liking you, but it was obvious that he really cared for you just by the way he does the smallest things for you that I bet you don't even realize he does for you sometimes." Dan continued.

As Dan said that, I actually looked back at the times Shun and I were really close and before he met Fabia and before we were dating. He always looked out for me whenever I was in danger, never complained about being in each other company, when it would rain he'd always offer hos jacket to me even when he needed it more than I did, and he would even walk me back to the café is was going alone. Dan was right; I never realized how much Shun really did for me. It made me feel a little guilty now for being so stubborn about everything that's happened between us. I sighed deeply, but then suddenly heard the door open behind me. I slowly turned and saw Shun standing there and scanning the room for me. The moment out eyes met, I saw him walk toward me as I started to feel nervous.

"Speak of the devil," Dan spoke as he stood up from his seat and greeted Shun.

"What are you doing here Dan?" Shun questioned.

"I could ask you the same thing, but I'll make it quick and simple since you two need to talk. I came simply to get some free food and see Runo of course." Dan replied as I giggled a little as Shun smiled and shook his head.

We both watch Dan go over and talk to Runo now as we sat and stood in silence. Soon Shun took a seat across from me, but he didn't utter a word. We couldn't even make eye contact as this a little awkward.

"I don't hear talking!" Dan shouted as Shun looked to him and frowned as I gave a soft laugh as Shun then looked to me and smiled.

I looked away from his gaze again and felt a little embarrassed. Soon though Shun began to speak.

"I heard from Luke you went to visit the Winter Queen." He said much to my surprise as I didn't' deny it and nodded.

"Yeah . . . I'm sorry for not telling you about it, but I just had to talk to her. I had to know the truth." I replied as he lifted an eyebrow to me.

"What truth?" He questioned as I took a deep breath and sighed.

"On whether she really loved you or not Shun." I answered as he stared at me shocked.

We didn't say anything for a while and I would glance up at him here and there to see his expression, but it remained emotionless. So since he wouldn't talk again I would.

"She told me her story of how she met and fell in love with you. She told me that she never once used her influence on you, until she wanted you to become Fay for her. She said that she truly did love you Shun, but she was afraid of losing you to someone else." I explained as he looked at me with shock and pain in his eyes.

"Losing me? To who?" He asked as I sighed again and spoke.

"She admitted to me that when you both bumped into each other she could read your thoughts and see your memories with one touch." I replied as he looked at me even more surprised as I continued.

"She told me that she saw how much you truly cared for someone and that she was jealous because something like that didn't seem real to her. She was jealous because of your feelings toward me . . ." I said as his eyes widen.

"She wanted a love like that towards her and so she started to see you more often so you would notice her and it worked. Her biggest regret though was using her influence on you to turn yourself Fay for her so that you could be together forever. So in the end she did love you Shun . . . Just like you loved her because those feelings you had for her were real." I explained and then he shook his head trying to process everything I told him as he looked at me.

"Still even if that was all true, aren't you mad or upset with her? I mean she did take me away from you Alice." Shun replied, but I shook my head.

"At first I was a little, but then I felt more sorry for her then anything. She had stopped believing in love because of Luke hurting her, but then you showed her that love can be real. She wanted me to tell you that she's sorry for what's she's done to you and that it's because of you she might start to believe in love again. Sure I'm sad though that everything that's happened, happened because of her but at the same time I'm glad it did happen." I answered as he looked at me confused as I laughed and explained.

"Is because of what she did that I realized we probably wouldn't be together like this and going through hardships like this to challenge our love for each other. If anything, it's thanks to her that I'm able to believe in your love for me Shun because of everything she's done and told me. I'm just sorry I couldn't trust or be reasonable with you and that I hope you can forgive me." I replied looking at him with sympathy as he took my hand in his from the table and stared at our hands.

"Forgive you? I should be the one asking for forgiveness Alice. I kept the truth about my past relationship and how I became Fay. That wasn't right for me to keep something like that, when I knew something like this would have happen. I'm just glad now though to hear you say that you believe me because I really do love you Alice and I always have." He replied with a grin as I slowly nodded and felt my eyes become misty as I laughed a little.

"Let's just promise each other from now that there will be no more secrets between us ok?" I suggested as he nodded.

"Ok," He smiled as I smiled.

"You think you might wanna head back to my place for a little while for some . . . alone time? We can talk more in some place not so open." He asked and my expression changed a little.

But soon he gestured toward Runo and Dan who were now staring at us and grinning like idiots as I laughed and nodded to him. I watched as he moved him his seat with his hand still in mine as he led me out the café and back to his place where Travis, Mira, and Alex awaited.

. . . . .

Once we finally made it to Shun's room, I took a deep breath and sighed. Mire would go on and on saying she was happy for us that we were together again and that she hadn't seen me in four days. Finally though Shun lied to her saying I was pretty tired and that we both needed rest. I watched as he closed his be room door and then spoke to me.

"Want some water or something?" He asked.

"No thanks, I'm good." I replied holding my hands in front of me.

Soon he swiftly moved right in front of me with his lighten speed ability and stared directly down at me. I felt his hand snake around my waist and the other brushing my hair to the side. Then I felt his hand on my cheek as he continued to gaze down to me. I was blushing madly as he leaned closer to my face. I didn't back away though as I wanted to be with him like this. Soon our lips met and it felt so warm and tender. I missed being in his arms like this as I started to wrap my arms around his neck as he kissed me more. Heat began to spread through me slowly as our kisses deepen. Suddenly though I feel something strange in my chest that I couldn't ignore anymore.

I felt his hand on my waist suddenly move a little under my shirt slightly. Suddenly my eyes widen as I remembered Beria in my dreams and her showing me one of my fears. My fear of being with Shun . . . Fear started to rise in my chest and the moment, I felt his hand on my bare back I flinched and yelped a little, and pushed him back with my eyes burning. Why am I feeling this way out of all the times!? I pressed my palms into my face, shielding my eyes.

"What's wrong Alice!?" Shun exclaimed.

I just shake my head to him, but I knew he wouldn't by that.

"Don't tell me it's nothing." He replied and I suddenly felt him grab my arm.

"Hey. Look at me." He spoke.

I take my hands away from my face and lift my eyes to meet his gaze. I could see the hurt in his eyes as I stared at him. It pained me to see him like this, but it also makes me scared to tell him about my fear. As I looked into his eyes I sighed and then began to speak.

"Sometimes I wonder . . . why someone like you would be with me." I replied as he looked at me confused.

"What?" He questioned.

"I know it's weird, but sometimes I really wonder why you choose me out of every girl including Fabia. I know who she is Shun and she's nothing like me." I answered.

"You're right she is nothing like you, which is why I like being with you Alice. You're different," He stated, but I sighed and spoke once more.

"What I mean is I'm not someone who's very touchy feely. I mean I just don't do um, you know . . . that . . ." I explained more as I blushed madly as I said those words.

"What? Sex?" He scowled at me.

I slowly nodded and I refused to meet his gaze. Suddenly though I heard him laugh a little as I then looked to him and saw him put his hand in front of me, telling me not to speak. He wiped a tear from his face and spoke.

"You know, if that was all I wanted, you probably wouldn't be the first person I go to." He stated and my eyes widen a bit as I didn't look to him anymore.

It felt like I was just punched in the stomach. Of course he wasn't going to do something like that with me. I'm such an idiot. I'm not pretty or desirable. I was just flattering myself . . . I felt my eyes become misty, but I held them back and made a pass by giving a small hollow laugh. I blinked a few times and then spoke looking back at him.

"It's getting kind of late and I don't want to worry Runo, I should probably head back." I replied with a fake smile.

As I made my way to the door though, I saw a hand stop be from opening the door as it lay on the door. I felt his other hand on top of mine as he laid it there on mine tightly holding me steady. I turned around to face him and noticed the position we were in and how close we were against the door. I felt myself become flush as he moved his hand to my cheek and caressed it slowly and gentle as I looked into his hazel eyes.

"I'm sorry I said that. It's not at all what I meant. What I meant was that you aren't like that. Which is why I like you Alice." He explained, but then I shut my eyes tightly and sighed and I knew I had to tell him the truth.

"No more secrets . . . That's what we agreed right, well I need to tell you something that I kept from you for a while." I replied as he stared at me surprised as I continued.

"That night when Beria had appeared in my dreams and came to talk to me, well . . . She did more than talked to me." I explained.

"What do you mean?" Shun asked curiously.

"I mean she used one of her powers on me and in my dream she made one of my fears look like a reality. She showed me you . . ." I replied timidly.

"You're afraid of me?" He questioned as he looked at me hurt and confused as he slowly let go of me, until I moved closer to him and spoke.

"Not you!" I exclaimed biting my bottom lip.

"Being with you . . . I've never been involved with someone like this before, and . . . I don't know what your expectations are of me." I explained trying not to sound weak and pathetic.

"Alice," He replied sternly as I felt both his hands on my shoulder now as he looked down at me.

"I don't know what you think about me, but this is all new to me too." He explained and my eyes widen a bit as I now felt really embarrassed.

"Oh. Oh. I just assumed, I'm so sorry I didn't mean-." I rambled on explaining, but then I felt him suddenly kiss me.

I was taken aback by the kiss, but I didn't move away. If anything I kissed him back wrapping my arms around him as he did with me. It felt like electricity was running through my veins instead of blood. The kiss felt so deep and passionate and I didn't want to pull away or even stop. I wanted this for so long, but I felt like now . . . I wanted even more. However, I was still afraid where this might go. As we stood there kissing for a while, I felt him pull away a little staring at me beat red face and spoke in a husky voice.

"You can tell me anything, you know. It's not like I'll ever leave you or something." He joked as I gave a small laugh.

"I love you Alice and I don't want to see you hurt or afraid of me." He replied and I nodded my head and spoke.

"I know . . . If anything now I'm not afraid of being with you anymore, but more afraid of what I want." I admitted as he stared at me with seriousness in his eyes.

"What do you want?" He asked cautiously before his faces tighten.

"Me?" He questioned slowly and curiously.

All I could do though was slowly nod as he nods to. I felt him now take my hands in his gently. He guides my hands to his stomach making me flinch a little as I look to his face for approval to which he nods again. His eyes lowered, as he pushed my hands up and over his abdomen and over his chest, and holds them against his neck. I felt myself become flushed as he did this to me, but I didn't pull away. I then noticed his gaze on me again as he spoke.

"Someday . . . if you still want me, we can . . ." He pauses and clears his throat.

"We can . . ." He tried once more and I let out a small embarrassed laugh as I kissed him lightly on the lips to stop him and smile.

"Are you afraid of me too, Shun?" I asked playfully as he let out a small laugh.

"Terrified," He said playing along.

As we gazed into each other's eyes we knew there was nothing else to say. As we kissed once more, it now felt familiar. I know exactly how we fit together, his arms around my waist, my hands on around his neck or even chest, the pressure of his lips on mine. We have each other memorized.
