Chapter 22

"Rima-chan, what if I told you that I love you, would you believe me?" Nagihiko asked

Rima's eyes widen and looked at the purple haired boy.

She then turned away, looking at the window, "Why would you love me?" She asked, "I've been cruel too you, mean, I called you names & all, is it because you pity me? Because you found out about my family?" She asked, as tears came down from her eyes

Nagihiko shook his head, and hugged the petite girl, "No Rima-chan, I loved you before you even told me about your family, I loved you even if you were cruel to me, making fun of me and everything, I love you for who you are" He said

He placed his hand at her chin, making her look at his eyes, "I love you like the flowers love the rain, I love you like the lips love the smile! And if someone claims to have loved more, he may step forward, and you know what I'll do?"

Rima shook her head as she looked at Nagihiko's ochre eyes, which was full of sincerity "I will laugh at his lies! If someone will laugh at me for how much I love you, he's got every right…" He said as he hugged her tightly again,

"So I will laugh with him" He whispered to her ear, "That's how much I love you Rima-chan"

"Nagi" she said in a small whisper, she smiled, a real one. "I love you too, you purple head, girly boy, play boy, annoying jock, Nagihiko"

He smiled, "Was mentioning my nicknames necessary?"

She giggled, it was music to his ear, "Yes, it is, you know why?"

"Why?"

"Because, despite all that, I still love you" She said

Nagihiko smiled, and surprised Rima with a kiss, she was surprised at first but then closed her eyes, as she started to kiss back.

-OUTSIDE THE LIVING ROOM-

"He has finally confessed to Rima-chan!" Namiko said, happy for the two.

Denieru nodded, he was leaning against the wall, arms folded, "It's about time" He said

"Kukai, Amu-chan and everyone else will be excited to learn about this" Nadeshiko said

Ai was looking at the door, she had a small smile, Rhythm noticed this and floated next to Ai, "Is something wrong Ai?"

The baby cupid like guardian character turn to look at the older guardian, "It nothing Rhythm" She said and smiled, and yawned "I think I'll take a nap first" She said and floated back to Rima's room.

"What's wrong with Ai?" Kusu-Kusu asked Rhythm

"I don't know" Rhythm responded

Lolli then floated between the two, "Ai is happy for Nagihiko & Rima, but I think Ai is a bit sad as well"

"Why?" Namiko asked her guardian character

"Because she thinks her job is down, the two are together already" Lolli said

"Is it?" Nadeshiko asked

Lolli shook her head, "I don't think so, I mean, sure we know what Nagihiko & Rima feels, true love, but that's not where it ends"

"In other terms" Kazuhiko interrupted "Its still not their happily every after"

Lolli nodded in response with a smile, "Their fairytale has just began" She giggled, "I know this, after all, I am the guardian character of charming love"

Ai then jumped and hugged Lolli, "SO THAT MEANS I'M STILL STAYING?!" She asked in a happy tone

Everyone laughed as Lolli nodded, "Ai-chan! Your hugging me so tight!"

"Gomen! I'm just so happy!" Ai said, jumping up and down.

Naomi then entered the hallway, only to find the three teenagers (Nadeshiko, Namiko & Denieru) standing there. "What are you kids doing here?"

"We were just…."

"Listening to your older brother confess to Rima-chan?" Naomi finished for Nadeshiko.

Namiko giggled nervously and scratched the back of her head, "Something like that"

Naomi just smiled, "You didn't have to do that, after all, I got the whole house staff video it from every angle"

As she said that, Baaya and the rest of the house hold came out of their hiding place with video cameras in their hand. "We can watch the special and sweet moment over and over again!"

"Do you think she videoed us last night too?" Denieru whispered to Namiko.

Namiko froze, and looked at Denieru, "I hope not"

-With Rima & Nagihiko-

They were currently walking in the garden, holding hands.

"I have a feeling Nadeshiko and Namiko, also Denieru, knows about us" Nagihiko said

"I'm not so surprise if they already found out, I have a feeling they were eavesdropping" Rima responded.

Nagihiko nodded in agreement, "You do know, when we go back to school, everyone will find out"

Rima nodded her head, "I don't think it will make any difference" She said

"Why?"

Rima sighed, "Because everyone already thinks we're together, your fan girls threatens me almost everyday"

"Come on Rima-chan, I'm sure they didn't threaten you" Nagihiko said in respond

Rima gave him a small glare "No?" She said, "Let me tell you about my P.E class"

Rima's POV Flashback

It was an ordinary P.E subject, so I thought, I was walking with Namiko, Amu & Nadeshiko to the gym.

"What sports are we playing today?" Amu asked

"I think dodge ball" Namiko said in response,

"Sounds very competitive" Nadeshiko said

Temari then character change with Nadeshiko, "AND COMPETITION IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE THINGS"

Me & Amu sweat dropped, "Nadeshiko is scary whenever she character changes with Temari" I said, Amu nodded.

"It will be a lot of fun!" Namiko said, Candy was floating next to her, "We can character change too!" and that's when we heard another ping sound, Namiko had a pink ribbon around her neck

"I am definitely going to beat Nade-neechan!" Namiko/Candy said

Nadeshiko/Temari glared at Namiko/Candy, "IN YOUR DREAMS" that's when the two started running

In the GYM

"Look" I heard a girl whisper to another girl, "Rima Mashiro, isn't she the new girl that the boys go gaga for?"

The other girl nodded, "Yah, its her, but I heard she's with Nagihiko-sama!"

"No way! Not our Nagihiko-sama"

"We must take revenge!" And the rest of the girls nodded in agreement

Amu sighed, "I have a bad feeling about this"

That's when the couch whistled and that means the game has started.

Dozens of balls were heading towards me, I got hit by some of it, but thanks to Namiko & Nadeshiko's competitive side they grabbed most of it and tried hitting each other.

That's when the two realized what the other girls were targeting me, Nadeshiko had flames all around her.

"MY, MY" She said, juggling some of the balls, "Look Nami-chan, this girls are hitting our Rima-chan"

"It appears so" Namiko responded

"Why not we teach this girls a lesson?"

Namiko nodded, Nadeshiko threw three balls up, and Namiko kicked them all, me and Amu decided to help the Fujisaki cousin and throw each ball in the air, Nadeshiko & Namiko would punch or kick it towards the other girls.

End of Flash back and Rima's POV

Nagihiko was laughing the whole time, "What happen to the girls after that?" He asked Rima

Rima was smiling, recalling that class, "Well, let's say they kept running around the gym trying to avoid Nadeshiko & Namiko, they were even willing to sacrifice the girl who started it all"

"Let me guess, Saaya?"

"Bingo" Rima said and giggled

Nagihiko chuckled, "Well, I could say the same thing about your fan boys"

Rima gave him a questioning look, "What did my fan boys ever do to you?"

"Well, they didn't really do anything to me, but they sure would do anything for you"

"They are my servants" Rima said

"Yah, so when they heard the rumors that we were together, they tried chasing me, and remember, we even hid at the tree" Nagihiko chuckled, remembering that

Rima giggled as well, "That was my first week at Seiyo Academy" and she punched him lightly at the arm, "And you got us stuck in a tree"

"We were able to get down, didn't we?" He asked back, he then looked at his watch, "We need to go back"

"Why?" Rima asked him

"We are going to tell mom" He said, with a smirk in his face "About us"

Rima blushed "Do we have too? I mean, maybe Nadeshiko or Namiko told her already"

Nagihiko chuckled, "Well, I want it to come from me"

"Fine" Rima said

"By the way" Nagihiko said "Should we tell your parents too?"

Rima sighed, "I guess it's the right thing to do, but how?"

"How about we visit them on new years eve?" Nagihiko asked

"Do I have a choice?" Rima asked

Nagihiko placed his hands around her shoulder "Well, technically, no"


Nagihiko and Rima were sitting at a couch in Naomi's room, Naomi was sitting at a single couch in front of them.

She was wearing a red kimono and was holding a black Japanese fan, "What is it you want to tell me?" She asked in a serious tone.

"Okaa-san" Nagihiko started, "Well, it's not easy to say this but"

"Silence Fujisaki Nagihiko" Naomi said "The thing you want to tell me, is it related to this?" She said pointing to a T.V "Baaya, please play the video"

Baaya followed her mistress, Rima & Nagihiko started turning red, as they watched the event from the other night, starting from the dance, till their confession this morning.

"Okaa-san, you videoed tape us the whole time?!" Nagihiko asked

Naomi then started to giggle, "Of course Nagihiko, its not every day your son confesses to his first love" She then turned her attention to Rima "Rima-chan" She started

"Hei?" Rima responded in her small voice

Naomi smiled, "Welcome to the family"

Rima blushed but then smiled, "Thank you" She said, "Mama"

"By the way, I heard about you and Nagihiko's plan to visit your parents tomorrow night, for New years eve"

"That's true" Nagihiko said

"No need to worry Nagihiko, Rima, I think you two will be pleased to look at the room next door"

Naomi stood up and guided the two to a huge door, "Open it Rima-chan"

Rima opened the door and was surprise, "Mama?"

Rima's mom was sitting at a chair inside a huge room.

"Hello my Rima-chan" She said with a smile
