Akane was a strange girl. An alluring one at that. The way she whispered in my ear had caught my attention unlike most girls before. The warmth of her breath on my neck and the way her lips skimmed my ear had me feeling quite... intrigued.
Two could play at this game.
I stood up from my spot on the table after placing the flower back into it's vase. Akane had her head cocked to the side, almost in a deceivingly innocent way. Her eyes were intently gazing at me, batting her long lashes. I smirked. She was waiting for me to show her more. Oh, I would show her more, alright. (; (lolwat)
Approaching her, I placed my index finger under her chin and tilted her gaze upwards.
"There's much more to see, if you'd like." Narrowing my eyes, I looked at her with charming eyes. My lips were parted only slightly as I spoke.
The corners of her mouth turned up in an amused grin. I wanted nothing more than to shock her. To see her being the charmed one. And while that seemed a bit difficult, I might add that I'm up for such a challenge.
My hands wandered. One to the small of her back, nudging her closer. The other to the base of her skull. I dipped her slightly and allowed my lips to press against hers. I could feel myself smile into the kiss.
After steadying her, I grinned and began to head to the door, looking behind me at her. Casually, I paused a the door. Mocking her innocent look from before, I spoke.
"I thought you'd like to see even more wondrous things." I smirked triumphantly.
(Ack sorry if this post is a little crazy. I just wanted to be a little more interesting than my usual. Plus I'm hyper as hell so haha.)
Forever
Our fingers were intertwined and found their way on my chest. From all of the excitement, I'm certain that Setsu could feel my heart racing under his hand. Which in a way, I liked. Because that way, my heart could speak the words I didn't know how to say. It could express to him how much he already means to me.
His other hand ran through my hair and I couldn't help but smile. I slowly opened my eyes to see that he had fallen into the same happy place that I was in. It was strange to feel so close to someone. So close to them that I would be devastated if something were to happen to him. I let out a deep exhale, but a calming one. No, I wouldn't allow myself to think such thoughts. Setsu is strong and powerful, and I know that he would always be okay.
I pulled his hand to my lips, or where they are under my mask and pressed them to his knuckles. Then I carefully placed our hands back on my chest and smiled.
BrokenTear
After leading her to the kitchen quietly, I thought about Yuki's question. About what that place was. I blinked, realizing that the others may also want to know. That it wasn't fair to forbid them entrance and never tell my guests why.
I gestured to the kitchen, "normally Erela would be in here around this time." I mumbled aloud and glanced at the clock. Almost nine in the afternoon.
"Feel free to eat anything in here." I shrugged, "though Erela is typically cleaning in here at this time."
My mouth was moving without me really keeping track of what I had said. I was still so dazed about hearing Alyssa's voice. I could barely bring myself to look at Yuki without seeing a part of her that reminded me of my lost lover.
After Yuki had found herself a snack, the two of us sat outside in the balcony for a breath of fresh air. The tree branches swayed with the light breeze.
"Yuki. " I found myself speaking. But this time I was conscious of what I was saying. She averted her attention to me.
"That place..." I spoke, keeping my eyes to the trees, "is a dungeon, where I keep the souls of previous residents." I confessed, "among those souls are angry spirits. There are tormented souls because I played torture games with some of my prisoners. Or rather my other side did."
I exhaled sharply, "and that dungeon is also the place of my wife and daughter and the last set of outcasts that lived here. I love them all so much. I won't let them rest. I can't let them go."
I was silent as the faces of my daughter and wife faded into my mind. Tears threatened to fall from my eyes but I took in a breath and shook it off.
"That's why I don't let anyone down there. I'm afraid of any of you getting hurt. I'm afraid... I'm afraid you'll see that I won't let them go and you'll realize that I am a terrible person."
I held my tongue and awaited her reaction.
(Sorry I took so long to reply. >.< I've been having creativity issues LOL)
