Loveless Reborn:

Chapter 3: the Way it should be.

[This chapter is mainly about Ein and Subaru and their relationship and how they met; it might be a little long but please read it because they are vital characters in this series.]

Ritsuka was bewildered. Soubi did the same and pulled his shirt down his shoulders, revealing the same marking. They both looked at each other and smiled.

Einriette was smiling too. Subaru was happy for them, but he was a little jealous of Ritsuka.

And in the moment of this very romantic/happy moment, Ritsuka's stomach growled.

He blushed and Soubi laughed. "I'll go get you something to eat" and with that, Soubi stood and left for the cafeteria, which Kio had to show him to, Youji and Natsuo were already there. Ritsuka put his shirt back on laid down, feeling better about everything. Ein was happy for him and sat down beside him again.

"Feel better now?" she asked. "Much better" Ritsuka told. "I'm glad; I was really worried about you." Ein admitted. Ritsuka blushed and she giggled. Subaru, who was leaning against the wall near the door, was getting more jealous by the minute, and wanted nothing more than to just go home and eat some of her Chocolate Croissants. He sighed and watched them make small talk and giggle about certain things until he could take no more, he noticed the time was close to eight at night now and he decided to make that his excuse.

"Say, its getting a tad late isn't it?" he started, "Don't forget that Sayaka-sensei has a pop quiz for us tomorrow." Subaru finished. "She does?" Ein said; her attention finally away from Ritsuka. "Yep." He replied. "Oh no, Sorry Rit-chan, we gotta go, see you tomorrow." She said as she gathered her things and pushed Subaru out the door. Ritsuka slightly waved and nodded a goodbye as they left and decided he would rest till Soubi got back.

As they walked out of the hospital and Ein called a cab, Subaru decided he would try and swoon her like Ritsuka did. He tried to make small talk, and failed. He tried to be funny, and he succeeded. When they were in the cab, he took off his uniform shirt and tried to make her blush, but the cab driver called them "Indecent little punks" and kicked them out, halfway home. She sighed and they walked the rest of the way home. She stretched and tripped mid-stretch and fell down. "Ein, are you okay!" Subaru called. She looked up, unharmed and nodded. He helped her up, making a point of putting his hand on her waist and leaving it there. They arrived at their apartment complex and walked in, they took the elevator to their personal apartment and both sighed once inside. Ein headed for the kitchen to start on dinner, but Subaru had different plans. [A/N: I wanna try something so I'm gonna let you know now, Ein is regular and Subaru is bold type.]

"Ne Ein?"

"Hmm?"

"Can we eat later?"

"You're not hungry?"

"Well…I am…but for something else."

"For what, just ask."

"Ok then, I want you"

"What, what's gotten into you!" she said blushing.

"Seeing you back there with Ritsuka, it made me jealous"

"He's a kid, Subaru!"

"But you were blushing and giggling along with him"

"Because he's a kid!"

"I don't believe that."

"Well you should!"

"So you're saying we can't?"

"I didn't-"… "I didn't say we couldn't I was just surprised that you were jealous of him"

"Why wouldn't I be after seeing you practically throw yourself at him?"

"Ok, listen!" "I don't know what your problem is, but I don't have those kinds of feelings for him!" "Mhm, sure whatever you say"

"Would you quit being so-!" "Urrg!" "Sometimes you are so hard to deal with!" she instantly regretted her choice of words. She knew that the day Subaru's Uncle, who had taken care of him and his siblings since their parent's death, had died in the car accident that those exact same words had been the last thing he had said to Subaru because they had been in a fight.

"S-Subaru, I'm so sor-"

"Never mind" was all he said as he raced to his room.

Einriette felt horrible. She knew he wouldn't come out if she tried, so she decided to take a shower and order take out for the night, maybe his favorite Chinese food would cheer him up. She went to the bathroom that was on the other side of the hall. She closed and locked the door, & took off her clothes, placing them inside the clothes hamper.

She decided she would take a bubble bath to calm her nerves. She put some lavender and vanilla scented soap in the tub and slid in, feeling her muscles relax at the warm water's soothing contact. A few minutes past and she finished washing so she drained the water and rinsed off. She decided to wash her hair and she grabbed the shampoo that Subaru liked. Raspberry citrus, she thought. She lathered her hair up and rinsed it, letting the water cascade over her, feeling as though it washed all her troubles away.

She turned off the water and covered up with a towel. She blow dried her hair till it was silky smooth and perfectly shiny. She sighed and turned the dryer off, exiting the bathroom. Making her way past the living room, she picked up the phone that was at the end of the stairs. She called the local Chinese food-take out place and ordered the usual. She hung up the phone and made her way up the stairs, as she past his door way she lightly tapped on Subaru's door.

"Subaru, in case you're awake I just wanted to say I'm sorry, I crossed the line earlier…sorry"

And with that she started to walk to her room, until his door opened and he grabbed her arm, pulling her into a hug from behind.

"Uwah!", "S-Subaru, what are you doing!"

"You don't have to apologize, I'm sorry I accused you of flirting with Aoyagi-kun."

"Really?" she asked.

"Really" he answered.

"Thank you" she told him.

"No problem" He got a whiff of her hair and smirked.

"I could hear you ordering take out, but Raspberry Citrus, you must have really felt bad."

Ein blushed and it caused his smirk to get wider. "I-it wasn't for you; I just wanted to smell nice for tomorrow." She said.

"Tomorrow?" he wondered, "What's tomorrow?"

"Oh, um…R-Ritsuka wanted us to eat lunch with him and his friends…" she admitted. As Subaru's smirk faded into a sad frown, she regretted what she had said yet again. She really wished every time she talked tonight she could stop sticking her foot in her mouth.

"Subaru, c'mon it's just a lunch."

"…But why for them?", "I want you to treat me special too" he said, sounding like a sad puppy.

"Subaru…"

He couldn't take it anymore; he pulled Ein over to his bed, ignoring her protests. He gently, but firmly started to kiss her. When the doorbell rang they both groaned when they got up. Subaru rushed to open the door. He paid for the take out and closed the door. He sat it on the kitchen table and stretched. He took out the food and put it on plates. He set everything up and went to Ein's room to tell her it was ready. When he knocked on her door he got no answer, so he opened it. He found her sitting on her bed flipping through an old scrap book from their childhood. He smiled and walked over to her. He hugged her from behind and nuzzled her neck. She giggled and stood up, making him fall forward on her bed. He made a 'plueh' sound from the impact and she laughed again. "Come on I'm hungry." She said and walked down stairs. He noted that she was wearing her favorite, and his favorite, little dark blue night dress that came to her thighs and had stars on it. He sighed and grabbed the book off of the bed. He smiled at it as he walked down the stairs. Ein was already at the table waiting for him. He sat down and put their hands together, "Itadakimasu". As they ate, friendly conversation filled the room along with light giggles and soft chuckles. After they finished and Ein had cleaned the dishes and packed away the leftovers, she kissed Subaru's cheek and headed to sit on the couch, putting on her reading glasses and picking up the current book she was reading. He sat next to her and picked up the photo book she had looked at earlier. She smiled at him and he smiled back, putting an arm around her as she snuggled up close to him, she took off her glasses and sat them and the book on the side table. They cuddled together for a few minutes until they came across a certain photo that made Ein's smile fade. She turned away and wormed out of Subaru's embrace, pulling her knees up to her chest and laying her head on them. He sighed and put the book down.

"Einrie, it's not your fault; ….It never was and never will be. Okay?" he wanted to cheer her up, even going to the point of using her childhood nickname.

"But if I would've just stayed inside…that tree that the storm knocked down would've never killed your brother or my mother…" she said, hurt in her voice becoming more eminent.

It was true…Subaru did have another brother; he had his younger twin, Tooru and his kid sister Tsukiko, but their eldest brother, Soichiro, had died along with Einrie's mother Rena, trying to protect her from the impact of a falling tree. Since then, she and Subaru had bonded with each other through their pain, and eventually learned of their abilities, since that horrible accident, they had become closer than ever and it had always stayed the same. Subaru picked Einrie up in an embrace and she squealed. He carried her to bed where he tucked them in together and wished her sweet dreams…Hopefully that would drive away the horrible nightmares that he knew existed in her mind.

Okay! That's the end of chappy 3! I'll get started on chappy 4 soon!
