Title: Letter's Of Love
Chapter: S Is For Serpent
Authoress: The Akuma's Sakura Violin
Rating: K
A/N: Cheer now, dear readers, for it is an update! I have to try type this quick, because I only have my writing class time to do this. Exams are soon =S
It's a song-fic, for chapter 'S', using a song that starts with the letter 'S', and happens to be centred around a theme word which ALSO happens to start with an 'S'. Which reminds me...
This chapter is dedicated to Noeyyy for the wonderful (and creative) word of Serpent! *applause*
Disclaimer: I do not own KWMS, and I only recently found out about the band 'Acceptance', that a disclaimer enough?
NOTE! Song lyrics are defined by italics and having these (~) little thingies surrounding them, pretty self explanatory, eh?
"An arrow may fly through the air and leave no trace; but an ill thought leaves a trail like a serpent."
Charles Mackay
~S Is For Serpent~
~Oh no,
This couldn't be more unexpected,
And I can tell it,
I've been moving in so slow~
Misaki sighed; she'd been running all day.
'Damn...' she cursed under her breath, 'I haven't been able to train for a while... and it shows,'
"Yo Prez!"
~Don't let it throw you off too far
Cause I'll be running right behind you~
Misaki snapped her head to the side, only to face a slightly smirking Usui.
"Usui!" she exclaimed, "What are you doing here?"
Usui simply smiled a bit, taking a step towards Misaki.
~Could this be out of line?
Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one,
Breaking me down like this~
Two arms suddenly snaked around Misaki from behind, and a gasp caught in her throat.
"Usui!" Turning her head slightly, she realized that he'd lent his head upon her shoulder, blonde hair tickling her neck and cheek.
"...Usui?" She tried again, softly this time.
~You're the only one,
I would take a shot on,
Keep me hanging on,
So Contagiously~
"You always work so hard..." he whispered into her shoulder, "Don't you ever feel like just stopping for a while?"
"Usui..." she whispered, sighing softly as she leant into the embrace, tilting her head to the side so that it rested upon Usui's crown.
~Oohhh,
When I'm around you,
I'm predictable,
Cause I believe in loving you with first sight~
A blush dusted her face, and she could feel her heart pounding in her chest... or was that his heart that she was feeling.
She didn't know.
~I know it's crazy,
But I'm hoping to
To take a hold of you~
'...why...' she thought, her eyes fluttering slightly,
'Why is it that I'm so comfortable in your arms?'
A gentle breeze passed by, and Misaki closed her eyes, gently leaning upon Usui's warm chest and shoulder behind her.
~Could this be out of line?
Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one,
Breaking me down like this~
"Usui?" she whispered, breaking the silence.
"Nani?" his voice, barely above a murmur.
"You're like a snake, you know?"
Usui was silent a moment before answering, "What do you mean?"
"Well... you slithered into my life... filled the cracks... wrapped around it so tightly and protectively, and refused to let go... sank your poison into me until I couldn't not need you by my side for the antidote... couldn't stop thinking about you..."
~You're the only one,
I would take a shot on
Keep me hanging on,
So Contagiously~
"And you can do so many things..." she continued, " Cook, talk, swim! Maybe not a snake then... but a Serpent... a Sea Serpent... able to go on both land and sea, surprising to find, yet amazing to see... yeah, definitely a sea serpent,"
~Oh you're everything I'm wanting
Come to think of it, I'm aching
On account of my transgression..
Will you welcome this confession?~
They thought about what she'd said for a few moments, unconsciously leaning in closer to the one beside them.
"A Sea Serpent... huh?" Usui whispered, a distant look in his eyes as he looked past her shoulder, "If I'm a Sea Serpent... you must be one too,"
~Could this be out of line?
Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one,
Breaking me down like this~
Misaki blinked up at him, confused.
"Huh?"
Usui chuckled at the cute expression on her face, "Well you see... you slipped into my life, without my even knowing it... became my friend... the first person I really cared about... filled that which was missing in my heart..."
~You're the only one,
I would take a shot on,
Keep me hanging on,
So Contagiously~
"Became such an important part of my life... that I could not bear the thought of not seeing you that day... let alone... never again..."
Misaki shivered slightly, the cool, night breeze freezing against her heated skin.
In what almost seemed like an unconscious move, Usui pulled her closer to him, nuzzling into her neck slightly with his nose.
It tickled...
~Could this be out of line?
Could this be out of line?
To say you're the only one,
Breaking me down like this~
"You're just... so beautiful... majestic even... a wonder to see..." The arms around Misaki's waist tightened possessively, "A wonder, only for me to see," he growled slightly.
Misaki blushed... who knew the idiot was possessive?
"Don't worry so much... Usui... but you should stop looking so good yourself... I hate having to 'rescue' a girl from rejection every time..."
"Rejection... hmm?" Usui muttered, putting his head on top of Misaki's, "Well then... why don't we change that feeling of 'rejection'," He leaned down, "To that of loyalty?"
~You're the only one,
I would take a shot on,
Keep me hanging on,
So Contagiously~
And there, in the middle of the lane, Usui kissed her, arms wrapped around her waist, and she could feel her hands reaching up to take hold of his neck.
And she never wanted to let go.
~S Is For Serpent~
A/N: There you go! Sorry it's so short, but I seriously don't have much time... I fully recommend the song 'So Contagious' by 'Acceptance' (Thank you Dreamy for introducing it to me! 3) and I hope it didn't seem too rushed, or didn't make much sense. A million apologies!
Oh! And everyone, I've done my first 'Official Beta-ing'! Please check-out FirstMovement's 'Secretarial Duties', it's really good, but completely deserving of its 'T' rating (nothing explicit, but innocents be warned!)
Until next chapter!
~A.k.u.r.a.
P.S. I've got a poll up on my profile now, I've got a few ideas for my next chapter fic (Sadly, not Maid-Sama). I WILL be taking one-shot requests! (For use of writers block, or spare time in class... if I have any), so feel free to PM me, or leave it in a review!
P.P.S.Oh and by the way...
*SQUEALLLL!* This story has the most reviews in the fandom (By like... three, but whatever!)! Thank you guys so much! You make me so happy, I could eat THREE bowls of rice! (Hehe, Renge moment!)
But for real this time, until after Exams (blech), or if I have free time and access to a computer again... BYE BEEE! (Haha, Lucky Star reference!)
