Despite what it seemed like he already made arrangements for Sumire's birthday. He planned it long before she even came here. Yes, he arranged everything before then. Was he confident that he could get her to spend the day with him? The answer is yes. The entire day yesterday, he showed her some famous spots on the island and they both had a good time. But he did not want to show her too much since it would ruin her birthday surprise.
But how did she end up coming here? He may have bought out this island but there were still some people living here. So Yuhi found a secret space where nobody else had access to. He was checking on it when he found Sumire in the area. So he invited her inside.
This girl is very good at finding places.
"Thanks for having me here." Sumire peered through the door curiously.
Yuhi waltzed right in and put his coat on the rack nearby.
"I will pour us some tea. So make yourself at home." Yuhi said, walking over to the kitchen. Through the small mirror on the wall, he could get a clear glimpse of her. Sumire was looking around curiously.
"It's the first time I've been here Yuhi."
"Indeed." Actually, he entertained the idea of bringing her here before but backed out quickly. After all, back then their relationship was strange. They were not lovers but they were closer than friends too.
Where did he put those tea bags? Although it's not a place he comes to frequently anymore. Unlike the old man's manor. He hasn't left this place vacant for a long time.
"I'm nervous."
Yuhi almost dropped the mug he just pulled out of the cabinet. Again, why is she saying this again? The other day when she said it, Yuhi countered it but he can't say those words to her now. Or rather he was nervous too. Yuhi felt his palms go sweaty, and his cheeks slightly red as he coughed. "Quit it."
Sumire was suddenly by his side and she peered over at him. "Yuhi-san that is sly of you."
"You're the one saying such things every time."
"I thought you liked honest people."
That is not the point here! Yuhi deeply sighed. He needs to stop battling with his inner thoughts too much, it just makes the situation worse. "I can't find the tea bags."
Sumire chuckled. "Then I can have coffee."
"That is bad for you.."
"But if I don't drink or eat anything now I will be even more nervous."
T-this girl is so extreme at showing her affection and she has no idea. Since she does it unconsciously it is even more frightening. Yuhi took a deep breath before he opened the cupboard and took out what he needed. He somehow managed to get her to sit down again but he felt her gaze on him the entire time he prepared the coffee.
Once he finished making the coffee, he placed it down on the table. Usually, he would sit beside her. But they ought to get the serious business out of the way first. For the next ten minutes, nobody spoke at all.
Yuhi watched as Sumire fiddled with the cup in her hands letting it cool down before she took a sip. In that somewhat tense atmosphere, it was her brightly lit eyes when she took a sip of the coffee that reassured him.
Heh, if Morris and the other guys heard that he was having such soft-sounding thoughts they'd certainly laugh at him. But he can no longer return to how he was before. He needs to stop dwelling on the past. Besides, right now Sumire is by his side as his girlfriend, they are no longer just partners. He can finally be happy with the one he likes.
"We delivered all the threats we had to."
Yuhi paused. He actually thought she would not speak about this. While he was away on tour cleaning up those rumors about her, Sumire was also doing some work on the sidelines.
"Why do you have to apologize?"
She doesn't say anything to that. "So about what you said the other day. About starting over from the beginning --"
Sumire stood up. "We haven't told Iroha-chan and the others."
Iroha was his 'kohai', he found her living on the streets when her family went bankrupt. Indeed he had not said a word about dating Sumire but he is sure that girl must have read the news already or found out from reading those magazines.
"She said it herself, didn't she? That dating will eventually lead to marriage but as those years go by your soul will grow old."
Soul to grow old. .. " A dark depressing aura wraps around the brunette, as she slumps her head on the table. "Indeed. I can feel it too."
"You don't have to worry. I'll grow old with you too."
He will grow old with her and spoil her for eternity. He will give her everything she desires, and grant every wish she has.
The brunette doesn't respond but he finds her staring at him for a few minutes, "What is it?"
"Nothing."
Yuhi could not miss the tint of pink on the girl's cheeks and look puzzled. Why is she blushing? Did he say something weird again? Yuhi traced the words he said just now and paused. "You don't want to grow old with me?" Yuhi figured it out right away.
Sumire was playing with a strand of her hair and looked very nervous. "That is what you just asked me...you're proposing?"
"I thought you said you wanted to date with marriage in mind."
Was she kidding? Ever since she said those words Yuhi has worked even harder knowing that they would have a future together. His thoughts broke off when he looked at her face again. Yuhi stood up and took a seat beside her.
He did not say anything but eventually grabbed her hand.
"You want to?"
Sumire nodded slowly. "I think so."
She thinks? Why does she sound so vague? As Yuhi debated this he watched as she covered her mouth with her sleeve and laughed. "Sorry give me a minute, my heart won't stop pounding."
Normally she is so confident and messes with him. But there are times where she gets like this. He doesn't understand her at all. Yuhi thought he had a better understanding of her now but he still learns new things about her. He still finds more things to love about her.
This is bad though, he wants to- his thoughts broke off when he noticed how close she was. When did she get so close to him?
