So, let's read and find out what happens next to our beloved pair Yahiro and Megumi.
Lay your love on me
Chapter 3
"Why am I so nervous?" Megumi's mind was too busy to think of a suitable answer as she was looking at her hand that was held by his.
They were walking somewhere through the crowd of dancing teens but she didn't know where exactly he was leading her. He was persistent. She could feel it by the way he held her hand tightly.
"He is like this since I confessed on a dance floor. Baka, why did I tell it to him all of sudden?" her tangled thoughts were killing her mind.
A gloomy aura appeared around the girl, as she lowered her head just letting him take her where he wanted.
He sensed the change in her mood and glanced back. Just as he had thought, she was depressed again. Well, it didn't matter at the moment. He wanted to talk to her in some silent place privately.
2 minutes later they reached a door with a table that read "Stuff-Room" and stopped. Yahiro opened it with a key and walked her in. Where did he get the key? She wanted to know it herself.
After he entered the room he closed the door behind him and locked it. Megumi turned and looked at him with bad suspicion and a shadow of fear in her wide innocent eyes.
He put the key in the pocket of his leather pants and made several steps towards the girl. His lips were showing a genius smirk and his eyes were looking at her with a mysterious spark in them.
Megumi tensed and stepped backwards. She didn't want to think anything bad of him but he was scaring her with such attitude.
"Now, no one will disturb us" he said calmly while approaching her gracefully.
Why did she feel all alarmed? It was Yahiro, he would not offend her so why had her body frozen and gotten colder?
"Why are you so pale? Are you feeling well?"
He was standing close to her now. Megumi was afraid to look at his face. She lowered her head, closed her eyes and bit her lower lip.
"Hey" she felt his hand on her chin as he tried to lift her face up. His touch made her tense and he noticed it. "Are you alright?"
Was it her imagination or did she really hear a note of worry in his voice?
When he got a chance to look at her face he was surprised to see a scared expression. His eyebrow arched as he stared at her.
"Open your eyes and look at me"
His tone was stern and serious. She unconsciously obeyed his order and did what he said.
Yes, there was fear in her eyes, even blind could see it.
"What is it suppose to mean?" he took his hand away from her face and stepped backwards so that there was a good distance between them.
"I…ano…"
She began playing with her fingers nervously as he was looking into her eyes sharply.
"Did you think that I brought you here to do some nasty things to you?" annoyance and anger could be heard in his voice. And his eyes…they held a cold glare.
"I…" her voice was shaking but she tried her best to have it under control. "I didn't want to think anything bad of you. I…it's just you closed the door with the key and…"
"And you got scared that I would take advantage of you" he finished her thoughts coldly.
"No!" the girl made a step to him. "I just remembered a movie where a bad guy did the same and then…he…to that girl… Yahiro-kun, I really got scared, though I know it's you and I love you but…but your actions confused me so much that I--"
"Baka!" he looked away and ran his fingers through his thick hair trying to cool himself down. "You should watch fairytales and Disney's cartoons and not those low quality movies".
She blinked several times before the meaning of his words reached her mind.
He walked past her not even looking at her and stood near a window staring at his reflection blankly.
"How could you think of me that way? I brought you here to have a private talk in a silent place".
He was still angry. Megumi's face fell.
"Sorry" she said quietly but loud enough for him to hear. "I really didn't mean to think that you could do anything shameful to me. I trust you and I know that you will not harm me because you promised me that. I'm really sorry. I don't know why my body reacted in such a way" her eyes looked downwards sadly. "Stupid movie…" she whispered bitterly.
Even if she told him the reason, he couldn't but be upset. She didn't trust him enough and it felt as she betrayed him. The only person he thought was loyal to him had betrayed him with the lack of her trust.
"Please. Forgive me, Yahiro-kun" a sob escaped her mouth.
Oh, great! She was crying again.
"I have spoilt your night. I'm such a burden. How could I have any doubts about your intentions? I'm a bad girlfriend…sorry…" the reflection of the widow showed him as she sat on a sofa, her face buried in her palms and she was trembling due to her crying.
He closed his eyes bitterly. She was really sorry..but it wasn't all her fault. What was he thinking when locking that stupid door and hiding that stupid key in his pocket? Of course a normal shy and innocent girl as her would have got scared of such attitude from the guy's side. Even when the guy was her crush. It was a misunderstanding that let them to a useless fight. The reason he brought her here was that he wanted to talk to her about their relations. And what had he done? He frightened her and even got angry with her! Wasn't he a despicable person after that?
Yahiro turned around and walked to her slowly and soundlessly. He sat on a low table in front of her and put his right hand on her head.
She took her hands away from her face and looked up at him with her puffy and reddened eyes. He was smiling at her gently. It was not one of his teasing and fake smiles. That was a real one.
"You are not a burden, Megumi-chan. Don't even thing this way. If you were a burden I wouldn't have invited you to this party" he chuckled teasingly playing with her bangs. "It seems that we screwed up a little. It was also my fault. I locked the door so that no one could disturb our conversation, but I didn't mean to scare you. Your reaction was a normal one for a girl who is not ready for "adult" relations".
She blinked twice. Confusion was written all over her pretty face.
He couldn't stand but laugh. It was an unforgettable view of her clueless face. Her innocence was driving him crazy.
But she didn't understand his sudden outburst of laughing. So she looked away and pouted, crossing her arms on her chest. When he noticed it he tried to calm down, but it was useless since she looked more adorable with that pouty face of hers.
When she looked at him with anger he paused. His hand was still on her head and the way she glanced at him from under his arm…well…he stopped laughing.
"Gomen-gomen" the Saiga's heir said smiling "You are so funny when you are all innocent and unaware of hidden meanings of words".
Of course he spoke Russian with her. She couldn't understand a word from his speech. But Megumi got tired of those confusing words of his. She brushed his hand away from her head and turned to her right fully ignoring the guy.
"Angry. Aren't we?" he commented her last action teasing her. "Ok, let it be"
She heard him sigh deeply.
"You wanted to talk to me" Megumi spoke not looking at him.
"Yes, I did" he started seriously. "It's about your love affection towards me"
"So?"
"Look at me, Megumi"
The way he called her given name made her blush. She turned her head and faced him. He was serious and concentrated and his violet eyes were looking not at her, but into her.
"Do you understand that you don't fit in my world?"
Those sharp words sliced her heart painfully.
"I do" was her reply. She didn't take her gaze away from him. She wanted to know the truth and she could see it only in his eyes that never lied.
"I don't love you the way you want me to"
A painful slice again, this time a lot deeper than the previous one.
"I am not forcing you to. I just want you to know that you are loved by me. I don't care if you don't love me back" Megumi was surprised. She didn't know where that courage came from but she was glad that it came just in time.
His lips formed into a self-satisfied smirk.
"But it's no fun if there is only one who loves. A one-sided love is too boring"
"Not for me. I enjoy every minute that we share and I don't feel any boredom when I am with you".
He arched his eyebrow.
"Talk about yourself"
Her eyes were burning with determination.
"And you are not bored when I'm with you as well. You told it yourself. If it wasn't like that you wouldn't have invited me tonight".
That girl…why was she so persistent to reach his heart?
"I'm not in love with you!" he said sharply causing her to tense.
Her eyes saddened and she looked down at her knees. Cruel…he was such a cruel person who could ruin all her dreams with just one word. But then she heard his voice and was really surprised by its softness.
"That's what I was telling myself during a long time. But today I have learnt something that changed my point of view".
She looked up at him curiously. It was hard to know what you should expect from the Saiga's heir. But he remained the same position, only his eyes were looking at her so instantly that she didn't know what to say.
"Why were you crying while confessing to me on a dance floor?"
She heard him asking his question. But what could she say? The truth? Or should she make up some cheap lie like something got in her eye…or…
"Answer me, Me-gu-mi-chan"
It was hard to be under control of his bottomless violet eyes. She felt as her body froze like it was paralyzed.
"I…you…"
"Hmm? I can't hear you" after saying that last he stood up and sat beside her so closely that her heart skipped a beat. "Now speak" his hot breath brushed against the skin of her cheek.
Why was he doing it to her? Why did he act like that? If he didn't love her than why was he playing with her feelings?
"I was afraid" she said finally.
"Afraid of what?"
"Afraid that you would disappear any minute without even saying good-bye. You did it before you could do it today, and I felt really upset about it. You never answer my calls or sms. You are so distant. I want to be with you but I can't be sure that you will not disappear the next moment. How can I be happy when you are away?"
Her words had a great effect on him. She was afraid of losing him? Could it be even possible? She believed him, trusted him but was afraid of been left alone by the person she treasured so much?
"I'm afraid even now" she wrapped her arms around his forearm and pressed her cheek to his strong shoulder. "Where is the guarantee that if I let go of you, you will stay here with me? I don't force you to love me. I just want you to know how I feel every time you come into and out of my life."
Weirdo…
He sat there with her hugging his arm like there was no tomorrow. Why did he feel so touched with her words? And where did that stupid warmth on his cheeks come from?
A sweet scent of her perfume reached his senses as she shifted her head causing her hair to spread the aroma.
"Interesting…is she as sweet as her perfume to taste?"
His mind asked him the question. Yahiro tried to ignore it with all his being but the temptation was too strong. He didn't know why her scent affected him so much. He smelled that perfume millions of times before but he had never felt so cloud-minded like today. And now he was losing his head just from a simple inhaling of her unique aroma mixed up with the sweetest perfume he knew.
"Megumi-chan"
She looked up at him sadly but when she noticed his gentle and caring gaze her eyes widened in confusion. And he knew exactly what he was going to tell. He was a smart boy and he didn't need years to understand the most obvious thing in the world.
"I think I'm falling for you".
That was it. He told it and he meant it. Today's night and her unique scent, her sudden confession and their little "fight", all those things helped him to identify the strange feeling that was appearing in his chest more often every time he was close to her.
He wanted to be gentle, caring, protective, careful and reliable to her. He longed to see her smile, her eyes shining from happiness, to hear her melodic voice that took his breath away every time he listened to her singing.
He wanted to hold her in his arms, protect from everything and everyone. He wanted to be her number 1 person in everything.
And he was going to fulfill that last wish right now.
"Don't joke like this. It hurts, Yahiro-kun" she told him not believing in what she had just heard.
He wrapped his arms around her body and lifted her up. She squealed and complained but soon she found herself sitting at his lap facing him.
It made her feel so embarrassed. Her face turned red and she ducked her head in her shoulders trying to hide her shyness.
She felt his one hand on her nape, massaging her head while drawing it closer to his face. His other hand placed itself around her slim waist, holding the girl protectively so that she wouldn't lose her balance and fall.
"No more jokes, no more teasing, Megumi-chan" he whispered in her face and it sent shivers down her body.
He drew her face even closer to his. She could feel his hot breath on her mouth. A swirl of crazy butterflies appeared in her stomach and began tickling her from inside. Her heart was beating twice faster and so was his.
"What are you doing, Yahiro-kun?" she swallowed hard and licked her suddenly dried lips.
He noticed her last unconscious action and so his gaze travelled from her brown orbs to her small rosy mouth.
"I can't resist to claim your alluring lips with mine. It seems that I'm crossing the forbidden line…"
And when she was about to ask him something she felt a soft touch to her mouth. Her eyes widened in shock and disbelief, while his were already closed. His lips were so gentle and careful; soon they began massaging her own lips. It was a pure bliss…
He took her first kiss without permission but she didn't mind at all. As long as it was him, everything was alright. He had so soft, smooth and warm lips. She was enjoying every second of a new sensation so much, that her head began spinning. Soon she found her arms around his neck. His hand was pushing her nape gently causing her face to be pressed to his even more.
She didn't know why and how but she began answering his kiss.
It was a pure, innocent touch of the lips but it managed to blow off their heads.
Both teens didn't know how to get enough of the pleasurable sensation. It wasn't a French kiss though, but they were drowning in a deep sea of new emotions that they had never experienced in their lives before.
Their eyes were closed.
Their breaths were shallow.
Their heartbeats were rapid.
Their lips were caressing each other.
And their kiss was soft, slow and cherished.
Yahiro was so carried away with pleasure that he didn't notice how his hand travelled from Megumi's nape to her face. He cupped her cheek with his right palm, pressing her fragile body to his with his left hand even more.
Meanwhile Megumi unconsciously buried her hand in his thick pinkish hair and ran her fingers through it. He liked the sensation, she understood it by the way his lips widened a little in a brief smile during the contact of their lips.
Even if the kiss was driving him crazy, he still had some control over his body. He knew that if he wouldn't stop any time soon, their love advancing would bring them to a second forbidden line that he hadn't plan to cross yet. He didn't want to lay his hands on her and scare her by doing so. She was a pure white lily that deserved the best proper treatment.
Though her lips were too sweet and alluring to resist, he summoned all his willpower and left sanity and interrupted the kiss carefully.
Her eyes opened a little when she felt a great lack of his warmth and touch on her mouth.
When he looked at her flushed face, half-opened clouded eyes and messy hair, he understood that if he didn't do anything right now, he would never stop kissing the beauty on his knees. The realization that it was him who made her look so adorable and attractive had almost crashed his self-control.
Yahiro closed his eyes to prevent his growing affection towards the girl and threw his face in the crook of her graceful shoulder, inhaling her sweet aroma. He needed to calm down. He didn't plan to let this situation go out of control. He felt an unbearable wish to kiss her and he did, but he didn't think that their kiss would affect him so much.
She was so soft to touch and yet so fragile. He hugged her tighter and shut his eyes once more, concentrating his attention on her rapid heartbeat.
Megumi was still under the affect of their first kiss. She couldn't think straight. Her mind and eyes were still clouded and she was looking at one spot in front of her. When his forehead hit her shoulder, her head bent to her left so her cheek was pressed to his hair.
She unconsciously closed her eyes and began stoking his back with her hands gently.
Her soft careful touches surprised him so much that his body froze for a second but soon he relaxed and started to enjoy the sensation. His mind eased with every stroke of her fragile hand and so he gained the possibility to think properly again.
Her caressing was so careful and gentle. He had never thought that it was so pleasant to be stroked by someone. No. Not by someone. By her. Her soft brushes made him feel relaxed, secured and complete. They made him feel needed and…loved. Was he losing his sanity? He wasn't a little child who had a lack of mother's attention anymore. He was a grown young man who could make his own decisions and take full responsibility for his actions. He didn't need any of those things that a child needed. But again…she turned his world upside down. How could it happen that she made him feel this way? Did he really need someone who could hold him, stoke him, caress him, whisper his name gently and tell him that he was loved?
Yahiro sighed deeply. He turned his head a little and laid his lips on her neck, while his cheek was on her slender shoulder.
Megumi's consciousness began coming back to her slowly. She heard him sigh and then she was very surprised when he turned his head and pressed his warm lips to her neck.
Her eyes widened in total shock. Her hands stopped her caressing and fell down limply. Then she heard his smooth, calm but hushed voice.
"Tomorrow I will announce you as my beloved to my parents. We will be dating officially from now on".
She felt his every word on the tender skin of her neck. Megumi's cheeks blushed madly. His sudden words startled her to no limit. Did he really mean what he said?
"Answer me. Do you want to be my official and only one?" he asked her lifting his head from her shoulder slowly while inhaling her perfume.
"I do" her reply was barely a whisper.
He found her eyes and gazed into them with seriousness, but there were care and determination in his violet eyes as well.
"I really do, Yahiro-kun. But I also want to be your last".
Yes, she was an egoistic type, she understood that she wanted too much from him, but there was no way back. They needed to discuss everything, because nobody knew when a new opportunity could happen the next time.
A sly smirk appeared on his smooth lips.
"It depends on you, dear Megumi-chan. If you promise me not to go and waste your emotions on other men, and not to share your devotion with anyone else but me, if you promise to lay all your love only on me and prove me that, then maybe there is an opportunity for you to become my last…" he placed his delicate finger to her lips and brushed them gently looking into her wide brown orbs "…in a role of my wife".
When those last words slipped from his tongue, Megumi's body tensed and she looked at him as he was some kind of an alien from a far away planet.
"You…you just…asked…asked me to…m-m-mar--"
A hushed laugh escaped his throat.
"It's all up to you".
She bit her lower lip shyly and looked away. It was good that he took away his finger a little earlier. She was so embarrassed and he was still embracing her with his arms.
"I promise, Yahiro-kun! There is only one man in my heart and it's you. I want to give my love to no one else but you".
When she said that last she bent to his face and laid a kiss on his smooth-shaved cheek. His heart skipped a beat from such innocent way of affection.
"Thank you!"
He was taken aback when she looked at him with shining eyes and a bright smile on her beautiful face.
"Thank you for taking me to this place. I'm so happy!"
"The pleasure is mine" no, he didn't say it out loud, but he thought it. The words that he said were:
"Weirdo…" and he chuckled, petting her head.
"Now…" he started after a little pause "we need to go back home. It's Monday, remember? And there is school in the morning. I want you to change".
"Huh?"
She looked at him with mute question in her innocent eyes.
Yahiro helped her to stand up from his lap and when they were standing on the floor, he walked to the wardrobe in the room and took out a package from it.
"Take it and change. I'll be waiting outside".
He gave her the package and walked out of the stuff-room after unlocking the door.
Megumi stared at the object in her hands with confusion on her face.
OooooO
"Yahiro-kun, you may come in" she said quietly into a corridor as she looked out behind a slightly opened door.
He walked in and smiled broadly.
"Megumi-chan looks so cute in this outfit. Violet is definitely your colour!"
The girl's cheeks flushed at his teasing compliment.
"Yahiro-kun, why did you want me to change into a sport suit?" she asked shyly holding a package with her party clothes in her hands.
He approached her and took away some strands of her wavy hair from her beautiful face gently.
"We don't want anyone to find out about where we have been during the night, right?" he winked at her playfully and it made her blush even more.
So he was caring for her. He planned it from the very beginning, that's why he had that sport suit prepared for her in this room.
"You want to protect me from Ryuu-nii and Jun-kun's questions? I…really appreciate your help…"
Yahiro grinned trying to ignore the sudden warmth on his cheeks.
"I don't want them to spoil your wonderful mood from spending a night with me with their stupid interrogations and suspicions. When you come home tell them that you were jogging in the early morning".
She smiled shyly at him.
He caught himself on a thought that he was getting used to that warm feeling in his chest that appeared every time he saw her smile or gentle big brown orbs that held so much love and innocence in them.
He took the package from her hands and led her to a spare exit, where his car was waiting for them. He parked it there while she was changing, because he didn't want to draw anyone's attention to her new outfit.
The road back home was almost silent. They didn't talk much and they didn't feel like doing so. They were enjoying each other's company and it brought them lots of good emotions.
He stopped the car in a few blocks away from her apartment.
"In order to make them believe in your alibi, it's better if you run this distance to your home, so that your cheeks and breathing could prove your words".
Yahiro said with a genius smile on his shining face.
"Ok" was her small reply. "Where is the package with my clothes?"
A sly smirk showed itself on his lips.
"I'm taking it with me".
"B-but why?"
"I'm starting a new hobby by collecting your outfits from this day".
He was teasing her again! That guy!
"Yahiro-kun!"
"Oi, not so loud" he rubbed his hurt ears. "Do you want your beloved man to become deaf? You better hurry up and run to your place. Or…" his eyes sparked with a mysterious glint. "Or do you want me to kiss you? It will give you the same effect as the running".
The thought of their first kiss played in her mind. Her cheeks coloured bright red.
"Nice way to go!" he exclaimed and clapped enthusiastically. "All you need to make them believe you now is panting. I can help with this one as well. But it's really impressive that only a remembrance of my kiss can make you blush that hard".
He was laughing at her! Megumi gritted her teeth in anger and opened the door. She jumped out of his black Ferrari and before closing the door, she bent down so that he could see her face, and said with an adorable and sweet smile.
"I love you, Yahiro-kun".
After giving him her sweet revenge she ran away.
And he was speechless for some minutes. His jaw dropped from a breathtaking view of her smiling face and those three words that he noticed he wanted to hear them slip from her tongue again and again. He looked at her running retreating figure from his car's window and couldn't understand how she could make him feel so startled, confused and utterly happy at the same time!
OooooO
Megumi sighed in her sleep. An image of a certain light-pink-haired young man appeared in her dream and it was fabulous.
"Ne, Jun-kun, why does Megumi-chan look so exhausted and happy?" Akira asked looking at the sleeping girl in the armchair.
The younger Yamamoto rubbed his nape gazing at his sleeping sister with a puzzled expression on his handsome face.
"She started a healthy way of life" Ryuu answered while petting one of his animals. "She got up early and went for a jog".
"Well done, Megumi-chan!" cried Hikari and hushed when she noticed everybody showing her a finger to their lips. "Soon you will beat me in the sports…" she finished in a whisper.
"And that means that you will become the 3d, Miss the Second" said Key as a matter of fact while typing something in his laptop.
"Takishima-a-a-a!!!" the black-haired girl gritted her teeth and clenched her hand in a fist as a vein plopped out on her forehead.
Of course nobody knew that a brown-haired girl didn't sleep last night at all. But she got a wonderful experience that she didn't want to forget in her life.
And so, every Sunday night a black Italian car took her away to the disco club that belonged to no one other than Saiga Yahiro himself. They danced all night long with the bourgeoisie till the dawn and in the early morning Yahiro would drive her home taking her clothes for his personal collection as a reward for spending his precious free time with her.
Very soon their relations became official as the TV news announced about the Saiga's heir's affection towards a famous singer and producer's daughter. Of course, it was Yahiro who let the whole Japan know about him and Megumi. But he didn't complain neither she did.
Megumi laid all her love on him and only him and soon she was prized with his returned attention. He began answering her calls, sms, e-mails and even online chats.
Everything was leading them to the happy end.
Who knows maybe the next time they will be dancing on their wedding party?
The end?
