TAKE XXV.

    Sunday came. For some reason, I seemed to be damn nervous. All the clothes don’t seem to fit my appearance today—wait…. WHY AM I EVEN CONSIDERING WHAT I SHOULD WEAR!?!! JUST TO SEE THAT MIDGET! My phone rang.

    “What?”

    “I’m outside.” Akashi’s voice echoed.

    “WAIT—“ I tossed the phone to my bed without pressing the “end” button. “I’M NOT EVEN DRESSED YET!” I yelled.

    “Kazu! Akashi’s outside!” Shiori called from downstairs.

    “I’M COMING!”

    “I bet you’re not even dressed yet.” Suddenly Shiori appeared on the door. “See? Told you.” She smirked.

    I cursed at myself. “Ugh!”

    Eventually, what I wore was a plain maroon t-shirt and black slim pants. I wore my socks, brushed my hair a bit and rushed downstairs. “Bye, Shiori!” I waved at her and exited the house. Akashi was standing by the door, chuckling at my appearance.

    “Funny how you haven’t even dressed when I arrived. I thought you’re wearing some kind of cosplay outfit ‘cause you were so late.” He said and we walked down the road.

    “Hey hey I woke up late, okay! Don’t get the wrong idea!” I lied. Truth be told, I woke up at 6 and helped Shiori with house chores and took shower at 9. I searched for an outfit for an hour before Akashi called.

    “Yeah, really.”

    “It’s true!”

    “I didn’t say it was false.”

    “Meanie!”

    He reached out his hand for my hair and did something. I looked at him. “Your hair was like Medusa.” He commented.

FUCK YOU.

    Rolling my eyes, I punched his chest hard.

    “Done.” He muttered and we continued to walk.

    “Where are we going?” I asked.

    He glanced at me. “Where do you wanna go?” he queried.

    I tilted my head and thought for a while. “I to the D to the K.”

    “From Iran to Dubai to Korea?”

    I ‘tch’-ed.

/(^.^)\

    In the end, we ended up in Akashi’s manor, to fetch Snowy. “Snowy darling! Mummy’s here to fetch you! Let’s have some fun!” I shouted as soon as I entered his room and saw Snowy on his bed. Akashi’s father is out for business and those who left in his mansion were his butlers and maids.

    Snowy mewed and rubbed its face on my chest. “How’s Daddy taking care of you? Is he good?” I whispered in its ear.

Oh shit.

    Daddy again huwaaaarghh!! This is a bad habit!

    “Daddy took care of you just fine, right Snowy?” Akashi played along.

    I shot a death glare at him. “Stop it!”

    “You started it.” He shrugged.

    I pouted and got out, following him outside, bringing Snowy along. He refused his driver’s offer to bring him to his destination. After a few minutes, he glanced at me. “You want to try riding a horse?” he queried.

    “Horse?! Wow! Sure.” I agreed quickly.

    He gestured in front with his gaze. I gaped. In front of me is a stable and by that, huge stable, with a wooden plate on the gate 'Akashi'.

    “Whoa! You own this!?” I said, amazed.

    “My dad does. I don’t.”

    “Ay you get what I mean.”

    He ignored that and led me inside. A woman with a green jockey costume greeted us politely. “Welcome, Seijuro-sama, Akihiko-sama. I am Sayuri.” The woman bowed.

    “Eh wait what, how did you know my name?” I frowned.

    Sayuri chuckled. “Seijuro-sama always talks about y—“

    Akashi cleared his throat loudly. Sayuri stopped herself and looked away. “Niji and Sora once told me about you.” She corrected.

    I blushed. “O-oh, it seems that I’m quite popular here.” I said awkwardly, scratching the back of my head.

    Akashi nodded at Sayuri. “Show her to Yukimaru.”

    Sayuri seemed shocked. “Eh?! Y-yukimaru? But it’s your—“

    “Just do it.”

    Sayuri smiled then turned to me. “Akihiko-sama, please follow me.” She said and I tagged behind her. We arrived in front of a wooden stable that holds a white horse inside. My eyes blinked in excitement.

    “Someone please kidnap me and send a prince with this horse to save me.” I muttered happily.

    “Go on, Kazuto.” Akashi spoke.

    I turned to him. “Eh!? But I don’t know how to ride a horse!”

    He nodded. “I know.”

    “Then?”

    “Hop on. I’ll show you how.” He said.

    “Oh,” I said and handed him Snowy. Grinning, I stepped my left foot on the stirrup iron and hopped on the horse’s back. I patted its back. “His name is Yukimaru?” I questioned.

    “Yes. Born on 20th December, the same age as me.” Akashi said proudly.

    “Your twin.” I chuckled and adjusted myself on the seat.

    “Okay, hold the reins.” Akashi said. I did as I was told. He nodded. “Good. Now, I’ll walk Yukimaru and then you’ll control, okay?” he said.

    “Alright sir.” I replied.

    He pulled the martingale and the horse moved forward. “Pull the left rein if you’re turning left and for the right side, vice versa. I’ll let the horse run a bit. If you want it to slow down, pull the reins towards you lightly. If you want to stop it completely, pull it hard.” He explained.

    I nodded vigorously. He patted Yukimaru’s head and pulled the martingale as he hit the back with a whip lightly. The horse started to run forward. I giggled and turned left, right, left, right and beyond. After a few rounds of laughing due to excitement overloaded, I stopped and Akashi joined; sat in front of me. He led the way. This time, the horse went faster.

    “Wahahahaha!!!!” I yelled happily. “Can I stand?”

    “Won’t take any responsibilities if you fall.” He replied.

    “I know you won’t!” I said and balanced myself on the seat.

    And then I saw it. Snowy was running towards Yukimaru. “Akashi!” I shouted.

    He mumbled something unintelligible then pulled the reins as hard as he could. Yukimaru neighed. I cursed. Yukimaru stopped, Snowy stopped, and Akashi stopped. I fell on my back from Yukimaru, wincing. Snowy ran to me.

    I rubbed its nose. “Mou~ Snowy! Don’t make Mummy and Daddy scared!” I said. Screw that Mummy and Daddy. I like how it sounds.

    Akashi got down and went to me. He helped me up and called Sayuri over. “Bring her to the infirmary.” He ordered.

    “Eeh, but I’m not injured.” I pouted. He pinched my nose.

    “Don’t question what I’m doing.” He said.

    I limped towards the infirmary, with the help of Sayuri. Akashi went to keep Yukimaru in its stable.

/(@.@)\

    “HUWAAAARGH! DON’T TOUCH THAT PART! OW! SAYURI!”

    The door slid open. “Told you that you’re injured.” Akashi said, leaning onto the doorframe.

    “Oh shut it you midget.” I scowled.

    Glaring, he stepped on my foot. I yelped in pain and punched his arm. “Ah, Akihiko-sama, you’re fine now. You can walk now, but don’t move so much.” Sayuri spoke. I looked at my bandaged leg.

    “Waa, arigatou Sayuri!” I smiled.

    “No problem.” She nodded.

    “Come, let’s move on.” Akashi said and handed me his hand.

    I pouted. “Since that day, I’m always limping against you. When will that happen to you?”

    “Doesn’t matter. Let’s go.”

    I took his hand and we got out, thanking Sayuri again.

-TIMESKIP-

    “NO!!!! I DON’T WANT TO!!!! LET ME OUT OF HERE!”

    “Hinata, make sure she wears it and all.” I heard Akashi commanded from the outside of the changing room. So what happened was that Akashi dragged me to this rich shop and pushed me into the changing room. 

    “NO! DON’T! LET ME OUT! POLICE! SOMEONE HELP!!!!” I screamed again.

    “And shut her up.” Akashi continued.

    “Yes, sir.”

    The door opened and a woman around her mid-twenties smiled at me. “Jaa, Akihiko-sama, I’ll be taking care of you.” She said.

    “NOOOO!!!! AKASHI YOU MIDGET!!!!”

~Half an hour later~

    The door slid open and I gritted my teeth in annoyance as Akashi smirked when he saw me. “You look better.” He commented.

    “Damn you.” I blushed and tried to walk away but I was forced to wear heels. Thus, with my imbalance, I stumbled and fell face-first to the floor.

    “A-Akihiko-sama!” Hinata gasped.

    Akashi chuckled. I got up and glared at him. “You—“ my incoming curse was interrupted as he knelt down and brushed off some of my hair that covered my face.

    Time seemed to stop. We stared at each other for A FUCKING LONG TIME I THINK I’M IN HEAVEN. “A-aka—“

    “Medusa.” He smirked.

    I pouted and pushed him away. Hinata giggled. Frowning, I got up from my spot and folded my arms across my chest. Akashi got up too and walked me outside. I had to walk slowly because of the shoes. “Are you trying to humiliate me or something?” I questioned.

    Akashi arched an eyebrow.

    “WHY THE HECK DID YOU FORCE ME TO WEAR THIS FREAKING SKIRT AND HIGH HEELS!?!!” I yelled.

    “So that you won’t walk or run so much cause you’re wearing heels and wearing skirt will restrict your aggressive movements.” He answered.

    I sighed in defeat. “Where are we going next?” I asked.

    “Just walk by the road. Do you have any particular places?”

    I shook my head as an answer. “More like we are exercising for the whole day today.” I laughed.

    “Because you’re fat.”

    I gaped. “I am!?!!”

    “No, I was just kidding.”

    I tch-ed. “Let’s play truth or dare.”

    He chuckled. “Did Reo possess you?”

    “No! In fact, I was the one who taught him how to play this game.”

    “Truth.”

    I grinned. “Who is your first love?”

    He hesitated. He hid it quickly but I was quick enough to hint it. “..No one.” He replied.

    I narrowed my eyes. “I don’t believe you.”

    “It’s the truth.” He said.

    I blinked and looked away. A sudden pain struck me. What’s with this feeling? Why did my chest hurt?? Gosh, what’s happening.... Deep down, when he said that, I feel…. Broken..?

    “Your turn.”

    “Truth.”

    “What do you feel about me?”

    My orbs widened and I stopped walking. He stopped as well. My heart palpitated violently. I clenched my fists. I turned around, back-facing him. “Kazu—“

    “Don’t move,” I said sharply. It’s a surprise that he obeyed it. “To be honest, I don’t like you. At all. You were that annoying cliché kaichou that everyone respects and admires. 99% of the girls’ population in school drools over you. But for some reasons, I was dragged into your hell. I’m sorry, I was the one who spilled the cake on you during that party. We challenged each other, you saved me, you kidnapped me to Sydney, you kidnapped me to four different shopping complexes, you bought Snowy for me, you helped me for my exam, and you stayed with me during the competition. You were the one who helped me love basketball once again. I feel so grateful I found you.

    “I don’t know what this feeling is but sometimes I wonder. Is it just me or you’re like gravity? I can’t help but think of what you think of me. I think…. After all of these times, I’ve fallen for you.”

    Silence crowded us. Suddenly the road seemed to be empty. Suddenly time flies so slow. Suddenly this felt like a living nightmare. Please say something….

    “Let’s get you back home.”

My eyes widened.

Was that…. Rejection??
