Ch.8 I Don't need to choose

■3rd Person POV■

The bird is chirping, the light that comes from the gap of the curtain makes Y/N opens her eyes slowly. Y/N sits up and looks around, it's not her room, then she remembers she's in Kiyoomi's Guest Room. She makes the bed and walks out of the room. There's no one in the living room, which means Kiyoomi is still asleep.

Then Y/N decided to take a shower and make breakfast for the two. Kiyoomi's walking out of his room when he smells something good in the air. There he sees Y/N's back as she cooks in his kitchen. Kiyoomi watch as Y/N's hands move gracefully. He gets a glass of coffee and sits at the dining table.Y/N senses another presence and she looks back to see Kiyoomi. Y/N smiles and greets Kiyoomi.

Y/N: Good morning Kiyoomi nii

Kiyoomi's heart warmed at the sight and her voice. It's been a while since someone says good morning to him except those who work for him. Right after he joins the Sakusa Family, Kiyoomi never really accepts his family. 

Right after he turned eighteen, he decided to live alone in one of the Sakusa's properties and after he starts working, he purchases this very apartment. Though as the current CEO of the Sakusa group he could live in one of the Sakusa mansions, he decided to stay in this apartment.

Today, he could finally feel the warmth of having someone else in the same house as he is. The presence of someone he cares about. Kiyoomi wants Y/N to be with him all the time. He wishes to Y/N will always be by his side. Kiyoomi walks closer and rests his chin on his arm on the counter.

Kiyoomi: good morning... sleep well?

Y/N nods and then serves the food she's making on plates and serves them on the table.

Y/N: Kiyoomi nii... um... do you mind eating this kind of breakfast?

Kiyoomi: why wouldn't I? you made this... this looks good.

Kiyoomi sits on one of the chairs and Y/N too sits across from him. The two eat and they're happy with each other's presence.

Kiyoomi: Y/N... I'm taking you to meet the Sakusa... my current family... my father...

Y/N's eyes widened, surprised by what Kiyoomi told her.

Y/N: um... why is that?

Kiyoomi stares at Y/N's eyes and the girl stares back at him.

Kiyoomi: I'm going to show them who's my family is... or... who will be my real family...

■Kiyoomi's POV■

I could feel that Y/N is tense in the passenger seat. Right after I told her that I want to take her to meet my father, she looks worried. I reach out a hand and place it on her hand. Y/N flinches and then looks my way.

Y/N: Kiyoomi Nii... do you... do you really want me... uh... to be your...

Kiyoomi: I want you in my life, if I'll ever have a family, then you should be in it... and... I don't want other women in my life... only you...

Y/N: b-but... what if... your father...

Kiyoomi: don't worry... nothing will happen to you... trust me

We arrive at the Sakusa's main Mansion, the place where my father lives. As we walk into the house, Y/N tug on my sleeve. I take her hand in mine instead and we continue heading to my father's room holding hands.

Ken: Kiyoomi sama? and.... Y/N... san?

I see as Ken san and Mahiro san's eyes are widened when they see Y/N, as if they knew her. That's probably because Y/N met them when we're still at the orphanage. 

Y/N: Ken san? Mahiro san? ah, it's been so long....

Y/N bows her head at them and the two bows their heads lower. 

Mahiro: You grew up to be such a fine lady Y/N san...

Ken: yes, the younger you were adorable but now you're gorgeous...

Y/N's face turns red by the compliments, and it doesn't sit right with me how she looks like that because of other guys praising her. I'm sure I'm glaring because Ken and Mahiro take a step back.

Kiyoomi: Is He there?

Ken: ah y-yes... you can come inside...

Mahiro san knocks on the door and opens it for Y/N and me. After we walk inside the room, Mahiro san close the door again just like how I asked him to.

Kiyoomi: Sir... I want to ask just a bit of your time...

The chair turns around and there I see my father's face.

Kiyootaka: Kiyoomi... 

I could see that he's looking at Y/N and then averts his gaze back to mine.

Today I'm going to tell him what I'll do in my life.

■Y/N's POV■

I was surprised when I hear Kiyoomi nii calls his father Sir. Then I feel someone's staring at me so I look. Kiyoomi nii's father is staring at me and that makes me nervous so I bow my head slightly and keep looking down.

Kiyootaka: what is it about?

I can feel a hand on my back, rubbing soft circles around, making me calmed.

Kiyoomi: I want you to meet Y/N

Y/N: ah, um... nice to meet you... I'm Inami Y/N...

I grew nervous because I feel that the room is too quiet. Kiyoomi nii's father doesn't respond when I greet him.

Kiyootaka: what is it about?

I can feel the coldness in his tone.

Kiyoomi: Y/N... she's the woman that I'm going to marry...

Silence

Kiyootaka: are you joking with me right now Kiyoomi?

■3rd Person POV■

Y/N's body tensing when she hears Kiyootaka's response. Y/N looks down at the floor, doesn't dare to lift her face up. Kiyoomi sees this and he glares at his father.

Kiyootaka: you are a Sakusa... Sakusa Kiyoomi... you can't marry an orphan with no good background...

Y/N's trembling a little, she's upset and sad as she listens to Kiyootaka's statement. Even if her father is still alive, they're still only an average family. Y/N thought she and Kiyoomi are in a different world.

Kiyootaka: you have to choose... it's either being in the Sakusa family or that gir-

Kiyoomi: I don't need to choose.

Kiyoomi could feel that Y/N's body's trembling. He reaches to hold her hand, making the girl looks up. Y/N sees Kiyoomi seriously staring at his father.

Kiyoomi: I don't need to choose, it's obviously her...

Both Kiyootaka and Y/N's eyes are widened by Kiyoomi's blunt answer.

Y/N: K-Kiyoomi nii... d-

Kiyoomi holds Y/N's hand tighter and looks at her. Y/N could see his gentle eyes as he stares at her. Kiyoomi turns his gaze back at his father.

Kiyoomi: don't get it wrong... I didn't come here to ask for your blessing... I just want to tell you who's the woman that I love...

Y/N's heart beating faster as she listens to Kiyoomi. Her heart is warmed by his genuine feelings.

Kiyoomi: whatever you offer to me... I wouldn't exchange her for anything... Y/N... is not an option for me...

Kiyootaka's eyes widened. Suddenly a memory of when he took Kiyoomi's mother to his family, played on his head.

Kiyoomi turns around and makes Y/N walk with him.

Kiyoomi: I will return the title of Sakusa's CEO back to you... and... the name of Sakusa too... thank you for taking me into your house for twelve years... we can settle this the next time we meet... I'll excuse myself...

With that Kiyoomi pulls Y/N gently to walks with him. Y/N looks at Kiyoomi and turns her head around to see Kiyootaka. Y/N couldn't see his expression because he turns his chair around.

Mahiro and Ken who listen from the hallway, watch as Kiyoomi and Y/N walk out of the house. Kiyoomi drives back to his apartment.

The two walks inside the room and Kiyoomi takes off his mask and throws it into the bin. Y/N keeps on eyeing him, watching his every move and his expression, but Kiyoomi doesn't show any regret.

Kiyoomi realizes that Y/N has been staring at him and walks to her.

Kiyoomi: what's wrong?

Y/N looks down and she shut her eyes, afraid that tears will fall out of them. She's happy that Kiyoomi chooses her over anything, but seeing him turned his back on his father makes her sad.

Kiyoomi: Y/N...

Y/N: Kiyoomi nii.... you... are you really okay with... me...

Then Y/N feels fingers on her chin and her face is lifted. Y/N opens her eyes only to meet with Kiyoomi's closed eyes. There, Kiyoomi presses his lips to her in a sweet and loving kiss.

When he pulls back the two stare at each other's eyes and Kiyoomi sees a tear that about to fall from Y/N's eyes. Kiyoomi leans in and kisses her tears away. Y/N's heart is pounding loudly, she could feel that her heart beats faster each time Kiyoomi's lips meet her face. Y/N clenches on Kiyoomi's front shirt.

Kiyoomi: Y/N... never asked about how that again... I told you... you're not an option.. I'll choose you over anything... I... really love you Y/N and want to be with you...

Y/N's eyes feel hot and more tears roll down her cheeks. Y/N could feel how sincere Kiyoomi's feelings for her, instead she never shows hers.

Y/N circles her arms around Kiyoomi, startling him.

Y/N: I... love you too Kiyoomi nii... as a man... I want to be with you too...

Kiyoomi's heart skips a beat when he hears that. It's the first time Y/N ever say that. Kiyoomi wraps his arms around her and pulls her closer.

The two are happy to express their feelings for each other.

But... something is still bothering Y/N...

The thought of Kiyoomi has to choose her or his family...

That bothers her a lot...

Y/N has a thought in her mind...

She hopes Kiyoomi could be happy without losing any...
