Chapter 8: Feelings

Fushimi yawned as I walk to Scepter Four. He's been up until 4:00 a.m. in the morning because he tried to research more about the killer and this woman, Fantasia Elizabeth.

Fushimi only found a little about her. They said that she killed her own family when she was 13. Then she started killing her friends, teachers, and neighbors. He didn't know why she is killing every person she encounters; he is still finding that out. Then it said that she was executed on March 18, 1783. They still say her spirit is still roaming around. Taking over a person's body and mind, and devouring it after. If the person was possessed, they have a black crescent tattoo on any part of their body.

When Fushimi walked in Scepter Four, she saw Shizuka too. He smiled a bit at the sight of her, and walked inside.

But he saw Shizuka talking to someone else.

"I didn't know you were this funny, Enomoto-kun!" Shizuka laughed.

"Thanks Shizu-chan. You were a pretty good joker yourself." Enomoto said.

"Wanna eat lunch together later on?" he suggested.

Shizuka nodded, "Sure!"

Fushimi looked at the both of them having fun talking. His fists suddenly clench. He doesn't know why but he felt something inside of him, burning. A mixture of anger and disappointment. Like he wanted to punch Enomoto right now.

"See ya later, Shizu-chan!" Enomoto said before he left. He calls her Shizu-chan?! Fushimi thought.

After Enomoto left, Shizuka spotted Fushimi right away.

"Fushimi? H-Hey!" she said as she ran up to him.

"Hey…" he said.

"Have you found something about the killer?" she asked.

"Y-Yeah. Only a bit." He said.

"A-Are you okay? You sound angry." Shizuka said. "No I'm not. I didn't get enough sleep last night, that's all." He said. The two stared at each other. Shizuka was about to say something when Awashima spoke up, "Ok everyone, that's enough chit chat, and let's get to work!" she said.

Everyone in the room start to get on their computers. Shizuka caught one last glance at Fushimi before she got her hands on the keyboard. After a while, she was busy with files, documents, and all kinds of stuff.

"Fushimi-san!" Hidaka called Fushimi. "What?" Fushimi said as he got to Hidaka's computer table. When he got there, he caught a glimpse of Shizuka. From Hidaka's table, he got a very nice view of her. Fushimi continued to stare at her. Her table was close to the window, so when the sun's rays hit her, it made her look like a gleaming jewel. "Fushimi-san? Fushimi-san? Hello?" Hidaka said to Fushimi, who is pretty concentrated on something.

"Hey, Fushimi-san, are you awake?" Hidaka said which made Fushimi got back to his senses.

"Oh sorry…" he said, "…what is it?"

"You see…" Hidaka began, "… I have been searching for some people in Shizume City who got a black crescent tattoo just like you said…"

But in that moment he saw Shizuka in the corner of his eye again. She was staring at some file that Awashima give her. Her head slowly turned to her side and noticed Fushimi staring at her. She smiled at him, which made him blush a bit and listened to Hidaka again.

But then, Fushimi was called to Munakata's room. "Yes Chief?" Fushimi asked as he entered. Munakata told him to sit down.

"Fushimi, I received the data you gave me yesterday. And there is a 50-50 chance that it may be true, the rumor. Fantasia's soul may have possessed a living body, or a person that once knew Fantasia tried to copy her." Munakata said.

"I see… How about Awashima and the others? Did they find some clues?" Fushimi said.

Munakata sighed, "Only the same thing… The serial killer has now got the attention of all the Kings, and the civilians. The Homra group is also now investigating as well."

"Do you want us to investigate some more?" Fushimi asked.

"No… just stay on our current track… That's all I have to say to you. You may go." Munakata said.

Before Fushimi left, he asked, "Chief, may I ask you something?"

Munakata raised an eyebrow.

"What do you call this "feeling" if a certain person you know always make you feel calm and relieved every time he or she is there, and you just want him or her to be beside you for the rest of the day. He or she makes your heart beat every time they're there, and every time he or she is with another person, it makes you feel, I don't know… angry and disappointed." Fushimi said.

Munakata smiled, "Well that's called Love, Fushimi… It's a special feeling when you gained an interest on someone, and then you just wanted to be with her forever. Why? Have you found this special someone, Fushimi?"

"N-No. Not at all. It's just an acquaintance of mine feels this one someone. Have a nice day, Chief." Fushimi said before he left the room.

Love, he says? Fushimi thought, W-Wait… Don't tell me, I'm in love with…

"Fushimi!" Shizuka called him.

"U-Ukui…" Fushimi felt his heart beating fast.

"Hey… I just can't understand this document that Awashima gave me earlier and can you help me? The others are pretty busy, so I have no choice but to ask you…" she said.

Fushimi stared at her. He felt blood rush to his face.

"Fushimi? Are you alright? Why is your face red?" she asked.

Fushimi snapped back in reality, "W-What? I'm perfectly fine. Sure, I'll help you with that. No problem."

"Good. This piece of crap is giving me a headache." She smiled.

Fushimi sat next to Shizuka at her table while helping her with the document. One time, Fushimi place his right hand on the chair and Shizuka placed her left hand too. Their hands accidentally touched but they didn't notice it.

"Understand?" Fushimi said after he explained everything.

"Yeah. Thanks a lot!" Shizuka said.

That was the only time the two noticed their hands were touching each other. They blushed as they took of their hands. "I-I better go… work." Fushimi said.

"Yeah. Me too." Shizuka said as she pulled back her bangs behind her ear.

Fushimi got back to work and so did Shizuka. From time to time, Shizuka kept on looking at Fushimi. Saruhiko… I wonder…, Shizuka thought.

When it was their lunch break, Shizuka ate with Enomoto.

"Enomoto, what kind of girl Fushimi likes?" she asked.

"The truth is… I don't know… I never noticed Fushimi falling in love before… Why?" he said.

"Nothing. Just asking." Shizuka sighed.

Enomoto smiled, "Even though that creep never fell in love before, I'm pretty sure he's falling for someone now… You."

Shizuka blushed, "What? Hell no! Why would he fall for me?!"

"It's pretty obvious that he is already head over heels for you. One, he always stares at you for hours, you didn't notice it `cause you're not looking. Two, remember the time when you left Scepter Four for two whole days? It's so obvious that he is missing you! And three, don't even think that no one is watching you by the time you almost lock lips. Why did you push him, anyway?!" He said.

"Y-You saw us? How?!" Shizuka said.

"Not only me. I, Hidaka, Akiyama, and Awashima saw you two cuddling it up in the training hall while we were looking for you. You should see Awashima's jaw dropped when Fushimi touched your face! It was priceless, really." Enomoto laughed.

Shizuka gasped at him and blushed, "Don't even try to tell anyone about this!"

Enomoto winked, "Don't worry. We'll keep our mouths shut. But next time, when he tries to kiss you, don't even try to resist, you hear?"

Shizuka sighed in relief. That was close.

"If you don't mind asking…" Enomoto smirked, "… have you ever experienced wet dreams about him?"

"You perverted bastard!" Shizuka shouted as she hit him in the head.

Fushimi walked home after that tiring and confusing day. He kept on thinking what Munakata said.

That's called love, Fushimi… he said.

Love? Fushimi never fell in love. Never. All he thinks that girls are just strange creatures from another planet that came to Earth.

But the time when he met Shizuka again and started hanging out with her, it was different. He never admits it at first, but after the moment he touched Shizuka's hands and almost kissed her, he admits it, he likes her.

Only, he won't tell anybody about it.

Fushimi passed by an alleyway and saw bodies lying on the floor. He ran to them and saw two women and three men, murdered viciously. With knives in their back, and blood splattered everywhere, it was like a horror house.

"The killer is out again…" he said.

But he also saw a lying figure deep in the darkness. When he saw it clearly, he quickly ran to it.

It was a bloody Shizuka.

A/N: Gah! Shizuka! OMG! Fushimi, quickly! Giver her CPR! XD Joke.

I'm very sorry if you hate this chapter, Sorry!

Oh yeah, for those people who badly wants Shizuka and Saruhiko to break the ice already, the next chapter is the one for you, so stay tuned!

Review Please! (puppy eyes)
