*Star*
I woke up to a scream. In a flash I jumped out of my bed and opened my bedroom door to see just what had happened. I ran down the hall and turned to the living room to find Jack standing up with his head in his hands while Crow had seemingly fallen off the couch. Luna and Leo were sitting on the opposite couch in shock, while Akiza was smiling. Yusei was sitting on the chair with his eyes closed and a blush spread across his face.
"What's wrong?" I asked in a quiet voice, scared to ask. Crow leaped up with tears streaming down his face, but I could tell that they were fake. "Star~! Don't tell me that you in love with this cold, overly serious machine nerd!" He said pointing to Yusei. I was about to answer when Jack interjected. "After all these years . . . I was under the impression that you weren't interested in dating." He seemed to be in more of a state of shock than Crow was. I was trying to say something when Akiza placed a hand on Jack's shoulder.
"Now, now. What are you going to get out of this? It's not like she's your daughter, right Jack?" Something obviously had happened while they were gone because Jack glared at her from between his fingers. "Uh, um?" I started, trying to get my opinion in. "I-I truly love Yusei, so . . . ." I glanced at Yusei to see that he had his sapphire eyes opened and that they were looking at me in slight surprise. Maybe he hadn't realized how comfortable I would be by saying that.
Everyone else was looking at me, expecting me to say more. "I don't want to impose . . . ." I whispered in defeat, lowering my head. Were they mad? Would they hate me? I wasn't quite sure if I wanted to know. Akiza was the one to break the ice, by coming up to give me a hug. "Your not imposing. We would never think that, were just worried about you two." I gave her a hug back, smiling into her warmth. She really was like a mother. "Oddly enough, I think that Yusei is the one we should worry about." Crow said with a thinking tone. "YUSEI! If you hurt Star I, Jack Atlas, will personally send you to your death for breaking a maiden's heart!" I was slowly released from Aki's hug when she started laughing.
I smiled at the acceptance they gave me. Crow had an arm around Yusei's neck as he was knuckling his head with his free hand. I giggled a bit as Yusei tried to struggle but with little success on getting free. The twins were now on either side of me, holding onto my hands. I smiled at the little green-haired wonders. Everything was going to be ok, just like Yusei said it would be.
*Yusei*
It had taken me all my courage in order to tell the other's about my relationship with Star. I knew that they would be surprised but I had no idea that they would scream. All hell broke lose when Star came running in, but it all turned out for the best. I smiled at Star and she smiled back. Something that always left me speechless. She looked like she was about to walk over to me when Akiza stopped her. "Now. I know you that don't like cloths." she said to Star, who pouted. I really didn't mind that she had a dislike of cloths, but it bothered Akiza.
"But, when your in a household with four other guys-" She trailed off as she looked from me to Jack, Crow and then Leo. "Well, one of them is too young to understand." I heard her say under her breath. "Anyway, you need cloths. Permanent ones, Yusei's don't count." Star looked disappointed. "I'm making you something based off what I had seen you tolerate wearing." Aki continued as she sighed and shook her head. "I found a few extra cloths that you can wear in the meantime. Let's go try them on." She said as she ushered Star into the bedroom, with a suitcase in her other hand.
I waited in the living room. The room had become suddenly quiet as we waited for the two women to step out of the bedroom. "See!" we heard Aki yell, "It isn't so bad." there was a small pause before we heard Star's voice.
"I feel weird."
"Don't worry about that, just go and show them."
"But-" Star started to protest. There were a few whispers but I couldn't make out what Aki was telling her. A few seconds later, Star walked out into the living room.
I couldn't help but widen my eyes in order to see her better. She was wearing a light-blue summer dress with a white flower design at the right breast. that only went to her thighs. It was strapless, which revealed her silky-smooth chest and neck. Her hair had been brushed out and straightened completely. I now discovered that it truly went down to the top of her thighs instead of just as her, uh, lower back. A small bunch of hair on the left side was pulled back with a flower pin that matched the flower on her dress.
"If you think this is surprising, just look at her back." Aki made Star turn around to reveal a design on Star's skin. It looked like wings, similar to bat wings, only that the ink was white and they looked as if they were torn at the edges. They looked familiar somehow but I just couldn't place them. "I didn't know she had a tattoo." said Luna, flatly. I blinked in realization. "She didn't." said Jack in a calm voice, but by the look on his face I knew he was also freaked out. "How would you know Jack?" Akiza asked in an accusing tone. "Because when we found her, she had no cloths." said Crow with a blush on his face.
I watched as Star looked from Aki to Jack to Crow and then finally to me. She gave me a worried look before cautiously walking over. "Do you . . .like it, Yusei?" she asked in a worried tone. I turned my full attention toward her. "Of course I do, you look lovely." I said truthfully, trying to take my mind off of the tattoo for a minute. Star's face lit up at my words as she smiled. I rubbed my chin for a bit. She's all dressed up . . . .I thought that it was a shame that she couldn't-
I stopped myself, why can't she? I smirked at my idea. "If you excuse us. Aki, Jack, Crow, Leo, and Luna." I said as I took her hand and led her out to the front door. She trailed behind me, and for the first time, I noticed the sound of clomping. I looked down to see that she was wearing flip-flops, something I would have to thank Akiza for later.
When we were outside, I walked her around the new Satellite. By now half the island had been rebuilt. There were new roads, shops, schools and parks. Everything was better than it had been a year ago. I smiled as I watched a group of kids playing duel monsters. Yes, it was a lot more peaceful than it was a year ago.
I looked over at Star to see that she was also watching the kids play duel monsters. She looked really interested. "Yusei?" she looked over to me with an expression on her face that I couldn't recognize. "Do you think that I could play too?" I chuckled a bit as I grabbed her hand and pulled her closer. "Of course, I can teach you." She giggled in excitement as she wrapped her arms around my waist. Even though I knew that I didn't have anything to be embarrassed about, my heart was pounding like crazy.
As we kept walking I heard a light rumbling noise. I looked to see that Star was holding her stomach, and then I checked my watch. It had been nearly ten hours since breakfast. "Stay here." I said, before rushing to an ice cream stand. After buying her a strawberry and myself a chocolate, I came back and handed it to her. She studied it carefully and then looked at me, confused. I took a lick of my cone to show her what to do. Could she have forgotten what ice cream was? I thought to myself as she carefully took a lick of her own.
The minute she did she looked to me and said, "It's cold! But it's so sweet!" I couldn't help laughing at her reaction. Her eyes were big with excitement like a five-year-old child and she was smiling like one too. When she discovered that I was laughing at her reaction she pouted and turned her head away in embarrassment. I shook my head as we continued walking, until we eventually walked into an empty park. It was getting late, it was completely dark right now.
When I was done with my ice cream I threw away the napkin into a garbage can. When I peaked at her again, she had almost finished her ice cream, but some of it was on her face and as I watched, it was also dripping on her chest.
"Star." I said, making her turn around. I leaned to her cheek and licked the ice cream away. Just to tease her, I purposely avoided her lips. I wrapped my arm around her waist and leaned even further down to lick off the drips that had made they're way to her chest. I had never really like strawberry, but the way it tasted now was almost heavenly. "Uh-, Yusei!" I heard her say, making me look up. She was breathing raggedly and, to my delight, was leaning closer to me.
I leaned in for a kiss, touching her soft, salty-sweet lips lightly before diving into her mouth completely. I couldn't just stop at her mouth though, I wanted to taste all of her. I pulled away, only to go back again and kiss her down her neck. I heard a small splat and I realized that she had dropped her ice cream, but I paid no heed. I continued down her neck, being aroused by her voice that continually called my name. I pushed her against the nearest tree, giving her some balance. The moon was shining overhead giving us some light. I pulled back and was about to continue when the moonlight made me hesitate.
Her gray hair was sprawled and sticking to her sweat on her body. The flower-clip in her hair was now crooked, but it was securely fastened. Her dress was riding up, revealing her perfectly smooth legs. Her eyes were half-closed, but I knew that she was fully awake because she was panting heavily. The moonlight had taken every beautiful feature she had and amplified them. The blue and white streaks in her hair were now more noticeable, while her skin was glowing. Her lips were now a cherry-red, while a light was shining in her eyes.
I leaned over her with both hands resting on the tree. My forehead was in contact with hers, and I stared at her for as long as I could. "Your so beautiful." I whispered in her ear. Her eyes opened completely as she looked me over. One of her hands raised themselves and started pushing my bangs back a little, the other one was stoking my cheek lovingly. "Your much more handsome." She whispered back as she leaned in to kiss me on her own. I kissed back with even more passion than her, but I knew I had to break it. With much difficulty, I did.
"I don't-" I started, trying to find words that wouldn't make her misunderstand me. "I don't want you to think that I'm only playing around." She tilted her head at me before answering. "Yusei, you are a cold, overly serious, machine nerd." The side of my mouth twitched as she mimicked Crow. "But your also a kind, loving, handsome man." I blinked at her unexpected words. "I never doubted you, and I never will." She smiled at me, a true smile. She had meant everything she said, and she wasn't going to take it back, this I knew.
"You-?" I started to ask, but she placed her fingers on my lips. She leaned in to give me a light kiss and then pull back to wrap her arms around my waist. I closed my eyes and bit my lip as I wrapped my arms around her. I brushed out her hair with my fingers. Playing with it, all the while resting my chin on her head. "Yusei?" she asked and I responded with a, "Hm?" She sighed into my chest as she slowly looked up at me. "I-I want you to make me yours." She said in a nervous tone. My heart started racing as I looked down at her moonlit form. "A-are you sure?" She nodded and then buried her head in my chest again. "Ok, but not here." I said, making her look up at me in confusion. I smiled at her. "I want to do this properly." Without another word, I took her hand and headed to my place. Not Martha's.
