< 3 : 33 pm., Tuesday ; Mukami Estate. >

Yawn.~
My morning started greatly despite what happened yesterday.
The sun was shining brightly by the window, the fluffy pillow my head lays on made my sleep peaceful, the comfortable bed that made me want to sleep some more, the arms that were around my waist, the smell of mint and men's perfume and the hot breath tickling the back of my neck -

Wait. Something's wrong.

WAIT WHAT!?

THE ARMS AROUND MY WAIST, THE SMELL OF MINT AND MEN'S PERFUME AND THE HOT BREATH TICKLING THE BACK OF MY NECK!?

That's when I realized yesterday's events.

My cheeks reddened and grew hot.

I forcefully ripped the arms off my waist and stupidly, I fell with a thud.

"Ah shit..!" I hissed in pain, holding my forehead.
"Prim!?" Ruki jolted up.
"Oh, good morning to you, black and white haired bastard." I greeted, in a dull tone.
"Prim, what are you doing on the ground?"
"Oh, you know. . Just talking to the floor about how fuckin' close you are."
"Don't fuck with me, prim."
"I fell off the bed, alright? I panicked since you were too close." I groaned, standing up and walking to the bathroom.
"Where are you going?" Ruki called out.
"To wonderland." I replied, sarcastically.
"Prim, it's a holiday today." Ruki called out, ignoring my sarcasm
I froze. It is?
"Woah, really?" I asked, turning back to him.
He nodded in reply.
"Just go back to the bathroom." He said, well, more of like a demanding way.
". . . I swear to god, if you're going to-"
"'No, I'm not. We're going out, prim. Now take a bath, and so will I." He said, standing up.
"What?" I blinked. We're going out?
"Is that why you woke me up at 3?" I asked.
He sighed. "Yes, we're going out in the sun." He nodded.
This was like when Ayato took me out! Weird. . .
"But-" I was about to ask something else, but he disappeared. I sighed as I slowly walked in the bathroom.

< L a t e r . . . >

As soon as I finished drying my hair and all, I quickly got my clothes on.

A black dress that reached until my knees, a dark blue short-sleeved cardigan, and a pair of Dr. Martens.
And I had no idea why I wanted to look good. With that, I finished and left the room. Thankfully, I didn't pass by any of the other brothers. I walked by Ruki's bedroom, knocking three times.

"Ruki?" I called out from the outside.

Silence . . .

"You in there?" I called out again, yet louder.

Silence again . . .

"I swear to god, I don't want to barge in with you-" I was cut off as the door opened, revealing a--

Holy shit.

Ruki wearing a grey jacket, a long sleeved black shirt underneath it, black pants and a brown belt.

He looked fuckin' hot - Miyuki, what are you doing?

"What are you staring at, Prim?" An intimidating smirk came upon Ruki's lips.
"Shut up!" I exclaimed before walking off.
"Tch. Such a tsundere." He grumbled before grabbing my wrist and pulling me back.
"..!" I gasped as I was pulled back.
"You're taking the wrong turn, by the way." He added.
I flushed in embarrassment.
"Shut up. . ." I muttered.
Before I knew it, the surroundings changed to the outside of the household, a black limousine waiting.
"Are you going to stay here, prim? Hurry up." Ruki called out, entering the limousine. Oh, leaving a woman outside? How pleasant.
I slowly stepped in the limousine, sitting away from Ruki.
"Prim, what are you doing?" Ruki raised a brow as I sat down.
"Sitting down."
"Why are you so far away?"
"Because it's comfortable here."
"Are you saying it's uncomfortable whenever you're near your master?"
"I have issues with men."
"Sit next to me."
"No, thank you."
"Are you disobeying your master?"
"First of all, I'm no slave. Second, it's comfortable here. And colder."
"It's colder there, huh? So, that means it's hot whenever I'm close to you?"
It took me a moment to understand what he meant, as blood rushed to my cheeks. There went that intimidating smirk on his lips again.
"Goddammit, Ruki."

< L a t e r . . . >

The limousine stopped, supposedly we were in our destination. Ruki immediately stepped out the limousine, as I followed. He held out his hand as I stared at it for a moment and turned to him, an eyebrow raised. He sighed, grabbing my hand forcefully.
Yelping, I stepped outside of the limousine. Unfortunately, we caught attention of. . . Females. Disgusting. They were eyeing Ruki. Duh, he was the attractive dude! Some shot me glares. This isn't going to end well. Before I knew it, he let go of my hand. . . Slowly placing it on waist.
"Let's go shall we, Prim?" He smiled.

This, of course, was fake. He was doing this since he hated to be all awkward. We started walking around, but he stopped once we were in front of. .
The café near the school?
"Ruki? What are we doing here?" I turned to him, questioningly.
"Isn't it obvious? We're eating here."
"Eh?"
"Is that wrong, prim?"
"Not really. . ."
"Then let's go."
Once we entered, there were only a few people around. Children, teenagers, adults. Mostly teenagers.
We sat down on those comfortable sofa chairs, sigh. How I love these. I sat down beside Ruki, why you ask? Because if I sat in front of him, it were as if we were on a date.

"Good morning-- Aka-chan!?"
A voice interrupted my thoughts.
"Oh gods." I blinked twice and faced Setsura.
"What's this? You're on a date with Ruki-san!?" She exclaimed, extremely shocked.
"N-No! This. . . This isn't what you think--"
"Yes, we're on a date." Ruki interrupted.
"Ha!?" Setsura and I yelled in unison.
"Baka! Don't say untrue crap!" Blood rushed to my cheeks as I felt warm.
"Ufu, no need to be all shy about it, Aka-chan~ And I thought you hated men!~" Setsura cooed.
"I do hate men! Especially him!" I hissed, completely embarrassed. And flustered.
"Don't listen to her." Ruki butt in once more.
"Aw! You two are having an LQ!"
"LQ?" Ruki and I looked at each in question and stared back at Setsura.
"Duh! Lover's Quarrel!" She stared back as if we were supposed to know the meaning.
"For the last time. .
WE AREN'T LOVERS!" I yelled, covering my face, knowing I was red as Ayato's hair.
"I'll pretend to believe that~" Setsura giggled.

"I'll take bacon." Ruki stated, calmly.
"Got it! And Aka?" Setsu asked, cheerfully.
"Usual. . ." My voice was stoic as I said this.
"Alrighty! I'll be back with your orders soon!~"
Once Setsura skipped away, I turned to Ruki; a scowl on my lips and a faint blush on my cheeks.
"What's with the look, prim?" Ruki smirked teasingly.
"Fuck you." I cursed.
"You seem to love me a lot." He chuckled, teasingly.
". . Shut up, dork." I groaned looking elsewhere.

Nightmare-sama here ! ~

Sorry for the late chapter and shit ;-; But I do have an announcement.

More like a rant, actually.

So, I've read some stories about DL and I got super pissed. One story was like mine. Someone took one of my character's last name, the scenario is the same, attitude and words of the other story's heroine are like my heroine's, shit like that.
What really pisses me off is that the person criticizes this story I'm writing about right now. And she copies it? What the hell? She mentions she's being "original". And I know she's reading this right now. She can get sued for copying my story and it's pretty much plagiarism.

I suppose everyone of you should read the last part of the story's description.

OKAY ENOUGH OF THAT, IM GONNA EXPLODE HERE.

A'ight, 'till next time!
