Chapter 575 - I Like Rainy Days

Perhaps he read her thoughts, or maybe he saw how she was looking at him, but before long, he was all over her. He is kissing her deeply and with such passion. However, when she felt his hands on her clothing, she paused and looked at him.
"I'm kidding. I won't do anything tonight."
Yuhi backed away and walked towards the kitchen. "I'll heat up the food, and we can have a mini picnic."
"Ri-right."
Even when she went over to the couch to sit down, she could not control her pounding heart.
'What on earth is wrong with me? We have dated for so many months now; how can I still behave like a shy little girl?'
He has touched her quite a few times too. But just the mere thought of it made her feel embarrassed.
Yuhi-san has always had a weird impact on her. But now that they are officially dating, she felt even stranger.
Her thoughts broke off when Yuhi sat down on the couch beside her. It took her a moment to realize he had already finished placing the food on the table.
"Ah, it's ready? Then we should -" Her sentence fell short when Yuhi edged closer.
"You know, before we start eating, I have something important to discuss with you."
"Yes?"
"If you're going to tell me you love me, say it directly. Though I do appreciate you singing for me."
Sumire averted her gaze. "I wasn't just singing for you."
"Sure."
It was clear that Yuhi did not believe her and was not convinced either. Her thoughts broke off when Yuhi kissed the strand of her hair.
"Hooligan."
Yuhi laughed. "Really?"
Ah, forget it, even if her heartbeat is going crazy. How can she ignore this lavish meal in front of her? Sumire closed the remaining distance and sat on his lap before she kissed him deeply.
Sumire felt Yuhi's hands on the zipper of her dress. "Mmm, you really know how to provoke me."
'Even though he was the one who started this.'
To her surprise, however, after a few minutes, he pulled away again. Why is he acting like a gentleman now?
Sumire heard her stomach growl, and Yuhi laughed.
"Time to eat."
She supposes she can sulk about it later.
After they ate their meal, the two of them sat on the ground by the large windows. Yuhi had his guitar out and played random songs for the last few minutes. It was pleasant to listen to, even though he was not singing.
Yuhi is truly talented; she has to work hard in order to catch up with him. Sometimes she wondered how it would feel to perform on stage with him.
'I would be more nervous.' The stage with her dear senior made her nervous, but sharing the same stage with Yuhi? Just the mere thought of it made her panic.
She wonders why this person has remained by her side for so long.
"Why did you choose me?" Sumire was very curious. Although she heard his confession, it felt like there was still something more.
"We already spoke about this. But I guess I missed out on a few things not too long ago. When Masaru was still here, he asked me whether I really liked you."f𝗿e𝙚𝙬ℯ𝚋n𝚘ν𝗲l. 𝐜𝐨𝗺
Ah, it must have been during that time.
"It's not that I wanted to be persistent, but I couldn't persist because at first, I gave you all my emotions. I didn't have any emotions left for anyone else from that moment onwards. I decided then that I would only ever give my heart to only you. When we first met at that terrible facility - I understood it already.
That even if I didn't rush to sign the contract with you, eventually, we would come together not because of our parents but because of fate. For me saying something like this is strange. I'm not the scientific type or anything. But things like fate have always been fleeting for me. However, after I met you, that changed. "
Sumire could only stare at him dumbfounded. Wait a minute; he's dropping so many bombs on her without any warning at all.
'I only asked a simple question, how did it end up like this?' But Sumire knew better than to interrupt him. Since he has already started, she might as well listen to the very end.
"If you ask me of the many moments I realized that it was not a normal love, there are plenty of occasions. For hanyou males and females, things like sleeping together and touching each other are not considered anything special even at a young age. People see it as something normal. That's why I wasn't sure at first. Your blood and the bright painting you did that day drew my attention. Before I knew it I-"
After a pause, she spoke up."You wanted to know more about me?"
"Mm, that's right. I wanted to know more. How is a being shrouded in darkness giving off such a bright light? When I knew who her parents were, I thought, ah, it makes sense. But after a while, I understood that it wasn't something inherited. It was something natural. One of the moments I was thinking about just now was. There was a time when I first joined would often find you pushing your bike past the football field. I played often. At first, I thought it was a coincidence, but I realized something was up and called out to her a few times. "
At those words, her calm composure vanished completely.
"I didn't think the reason would be that. You circled around that area for so long, and I simply thought you were waiting for somebody else. I didn't think for a second it was me. There was a time when there were some bad rumors about me, and something similar occurred."
"I--I was caught then too?!!" Sumire exclaimed in disbelief. What on earth is with this situation?
If somebody could die of embarrassment, she would have done so long ago.
"Pfft, yep, I caught you. At the start, though, I thought it was a mere chance encounter. But I was mistaken. It was on a rainy day. I ended up being made to stay behind to help the class rep due to my grades. I was running late then, and I sent you a message to go home without me.
However, once again, I found you loitering around this time on the road opposite the school. Before I could call out to you, it started raining heavily, and you had already rushed off to look for shelter. I decided too that I'd just call you once I found shelter. We unexpectedly ended up in the same place."
Her gaze softened at the memory. "You know I thought it was fate. It reminded me a little of the song by jay chou."
"Rainy days aren't the most beautiful thing; it's to find shelter under a roof with you, that is."
"You must have liked it. "
She knew how hard it was to please this man when it came to music. He has a lot of opinions. Granted, it was only natural for him to be picky regarding music with his skills.
"Yeah.. After that time, I unexpectedly started to like rainy days."
