22 Notice Me
( '....' - Means a different set of people, change of scenario)
"A lesson in Romantics is a book collection of classical music"
I never thought that there were people still listening to this kind of music" she said to herself
"Harada-san?" a voice called to her. It's like electricity that makes her shiver, "Hey, are you alright?" he asked to the little girl in front of him and gave her a relieve smile when the girl smiled back at him
"uh-ahhh... Hi Oshitari-kun..."
He let out a laugh seeing how funny her surprised face was... "You look so funny... hahaha!" That makes Risa pout "eeeh... what are you laughing at?"
"Nothing... I just can't help it, looking at how surprised you are..."
"Aaah..." she said tilting her head maybe she really didn't get it
"So, what are you doing here?" he asked
"Oh, I'm just looking around.. searching something..." she said while her feet fidgeting
" I see, tell me what is it, maybe I can help you.. is it about classical music? Keyboard? Violin?"
"Ahm... it's about this book..." she pointed out one book on the shelves
"ah.. this one.."
"I wonder what is it all about.." she said shyly
"Say... would you like to discuss this at the coffee shop?" he said with his usual smile.
.........
"Hey... am I dreaming?" Aoi's brows arches as to heard what she have heard
"You heard it right Aoi, I think Risa likes him... she usually meet him at the cafe" Rku complains, recently Risa usually comes at the bookstore where she and Oshitari first met
"But I thought Risa had a big crush on Fuji-senpai?" Nanako asked
"Maybe she gave up already, knowing that Fuji - senpai seems to like somebody else..." said Sunako at looks at her buchou who was staring at the window, when she noticed it "are you saying something to me?" asked by Yuuki
" Yuuki, are you spacing out?"
"Huh?" she replied
" Geez, I think Yamada buchou really is spacing out..." said Nanako
"Hey , what made you guys gather here?" asked by Megumi who has just entered the locker room, she smiled at Yuuki which she never did before not until when they discovered each others secret at the ball last night
"What's with the serious faces guys? " She asked again "and what's with the jerseys Yuuki? Did you get a cold after you left last night?" she teased a little, Yuuki who was surprised blushed as she remembered the reason why she was wearing a jersey though it is incredibly hot this afternoon...
"Sort of..." she replied and focusing her attention on her phone she sent a message to Tezuka (Mitsu, let's meet after the practice we need to talk...)
" Megu-senpai, what happened to your lip? it's a bit swollen..." noticed by Sunako
"huh? Ahm.. i ... I ... it's because of my lipstick, yes that's it!! I was trying to remove it but it was too hard, after I realized that it's a waterproof one..." she said while making gestures... for her teammates to believe her
" I thought you got it from a deep kiss Senpai" said Nanami, that makes Yuuki, Aoi and Megumi cough, Riku and Nanami arches a brow
"What's with the word kiss that the three of you reacted like that? Have you kissed someone, Megu?" she interrogates the three
"OF COURSE NOT! Like what I've told you this is because of the lipstick. I was just surprised by these two.." Said Megumi as a defense, it is really half truth, she really have a hard time removing her lipstick and the taste of Atobe's kiss O(∩_∩)O
Now Riku turned to Yuuki " Am just surprised she will said such thing like that..." hehehe lucky that she could act innocently and impassively
Last is Aoi...
"A kiss..." She got all the girls attention...
"Hey, don't tell me... you kissed A guy already!" said Riku
" I already have my first kiss..." it's Aoi
"What? Who's the lucky guy?" Megu asked excitedly. She can't believe that her wallflower friend has her first kiss already, Yuuki is just looking at her waiting for an answer Sunako is also waiting for the next thing her senpAi will say... Riku looking so excited
"I... the guy is...."
.......
"How's school?"
"ahm.. it's fun.. after the nationals we have more chances to be together and tennis gets even more fun... only that some of our senpai really have to say goodbye" she is quite sad at the last statement.
" I see.. we are on our last year in middle school" Oshitari gave a faint smile
"Say.. how does it feel... leaving the year you ever loved.. friends... classmates... sports... What do you plan after?"
"hmmm... I don't know yet. Maybe I'll enter Tokyo University, or maybe I'll accept the offer from Hyotei University."
"I see... my sister, she's planning to take exams at another place, that means she will leave me alone at Seigaku..."
"Aren't you happy for her?"
"I am... I just can't help my sadness, we've always been together.. even at sports..."
"All good things have an end..." he said that makes Risa look at him "You asked me about this book, A Lesson in Romantics, it is not a classical collection of songs as you can see... It is a modern collection of heartbreaking confessions of a guy about the break up of his girl, the reason they have to let go of each other, the reason to start new, broken friendships, all about leaving.." there is a pain in his eyes
"Maybe the guy is so lonely while he makes those songs..."
"The truth is, he's not... he is much more thankful to what has happened because if he never felt such feelings like that he won't be able to write and compose such beautiful melodies...
"I see..." and they continue their talk until dawn...
........
"Have you heard of it?"
"Heard about what?"
"About Aoi and Oishi?"
"Hmm?"
"They started dating already... didn't Oishi mention it to you?" he take a closer look at her, he is holding her hand intertwining his fingers with her.
"Is that what you would like to talk about?" he rest his head at her shoulders.
" Not really... I'm just quite surprised that they are dating already and that they both have feelings for each other..." she said as she looked up in the sky.
" Just like us…?" he said and gave her a kiss on her cheek that made her blush.
"You've been very intimate these past few days..."
"Mmm... I just want to show you how I feel, how much I wanted you to feel it too..." he said as he wrap his arms around her waist
" Mitsu..."
"Mmmm?"
"Grandpa found out about our relationship..."
"He did? How?"
"Aside from the security who saw us.. maybe because of the marks seen on my skin. I forgot that I was wearing a tube gown and didn't realize that I have such marks." I said in a very sarcastic way, he crossed his brows then it was gone and he chuckles and buried his face in my neck, and I can feel that he is kissing me, not he's nipping it.
" Mitsu! Are you planning on putting some more marks on me? What are you doing!?" As I push him away, I don't know what is playing on his mind. He's being so intimate that sometimes, I fear even my own feelings, knowing I can't resist him.
"That is so not you..." and look at the other side not letting him see the tear that was about to fall from my eyes.
"Yuuki..." he said but I didn't look back " I am sorry to hurt you that way... I am really not me..." though I am not looking at him I know that he shook his head and was now holding the bridge of his nose.
" I've become so insensitive, please forgive me... I just love you so much that I can't even help myself whenever I'm with you... This is how I wanted when it's just the two of us..." and he hugged me from my back. I am enclosed in the warmth of his body so I turn around and face him.
" I just don't want our relationship to end up like what happened to my mom and dad... I am afraid that I'll have the same fate as theirs"
"You don't have to worry that won't happen to us" and he gave me An assuring smile, a smile that only me can see, the smile that is only meant for me
"I love you too..." and even though we have just talked about it, he lowered his head and started kissing me on my lips, his tongue searching for an entrance to mine, it was long and very passionate I am so relieved and calm that he really loves and I believe every word he said to me.
......
I know that they are so in love with each other, but a part of me is hoping that one day she'll notice this selfish love of mine.. I know from the beginning that Yuuki is meant for Tezuka. Neither I or even her best friend Sanada can change her heart... i'll be just right here looking and will guide you forever
.......
Everyday I watch you from afar, every time you pass i tried to pull myself not touch you
Seeing others freely touching you and talking to you like normal and that you're just so simple hurts me so...
You are our OUJISAMA, the one and only.
AND I WON'T LET ANY OTHER GIRLS TO HAVE YOU.
