"After the third round. There"s a few days left before we have to leave. Normally it"s used for additional job offers etc. But, do you want to take the trip then? We can"t do it when we go back to j.a.pan."Lila somehow managed to nod. She could barely speak. Haruka"s idea of a reward always ends up like this. Her body ached all over. She raised her hand to hit him but he simply kissed her fingertips. Her gaze softened at how gentle he was. Whenever Haruka held her, it"s like he"s holding something precious. Something delicate, there is no need for him to treat her so specially. But he always does without fail.
Her thoughts broke off when his lips attacked her neck again.
"Haruka, ungh..enough."
"Don"t go, don"t leave me for him," he murmured softly against her skin.
Ah…
"Haruka, don"t be silly. I won"t leave you."
"But, when you see him after so long…"
Lila understood where he was coming from. It"s true that she hasn"t seen Kiryu in a long time. She may end up doing something stupid. But even then, "I know who the person I love is. It"s the man right here with me."
"What is this man doing to you now?"
She flushed even more red at his words. What happened to being weak and vulnerable? Why is he seducing her again? He licked her neck again and a light moan pa.s.sed her lips. This man is unreasonable, all he does is have s.e.x with her. But Lila understood the extent of his feelings. Maybe for Haruka, this is the only way for him to show his love. If it"s like that, then she really can"t complain can she?

The three day vacation was like heaven for all the partic.i.p.ants. But sadly she spent the majority of the time alone. A deep sigh pa.s.sed Lila"s lips, she was currently stretching. How annoying. She really wanted Haruka to take her to some places. But the judges are too busy with the third round. They are deciding which members are going to judge. With the combination of her side and Yori"s, there are a lot of judges. Lila recalled the red head woman who picked on Yori and frowned. If she recalled correctly that"s somebody from Lina"s company?
"Is Ari here?"
Her thoughts broke off when she spotted maroon coloured hair.
"Haruka!"
His lips curve to a smile, "Want to take a break?"
Her eyes light up.
....
Her dressing room -
"Um Haruka, I thought we were going to go on a walk."
"Let me rest, I"m tied," Haruka murmured as he buried his face in her chest. Lila frowned when she saw how exhausted he looked. He"s working too hard. She ran his hand through his hair and his handsome face. Haruka he"s going to get sick like this.
"Are you tired? Did you eat yet?"
And yet he"s asking her the very same questions she should be asking him, "I ate, but you didn"t right?"
"Mmm, I did. Why wouldn"t I eat the food my wife made me?"
Lila paused, cheeks turned bright red. Lately he"s become even more and more shameless. Not that she minds too much,
Before they could kiss however, the doors opened and in waltz in a woman with long curly red hair. Oh, it"s this judge.
"It appears as though I"m interrupting."
"What is it?" Haruka said.
"I want to apologize for Lina"s actions recently. It appears as though the child is causing you problems."
Haruka sighed, "Why treat a 20 year old as a child?"
20? So that girl is actually more or less Haruka"s age? Well she supposes that explained the girls appearance.
"If your going with that logic, then you should hold your tongue with your seniors. It appears as though you somehow convinced them to let you off for awhile. But I wonder how much longer you can escape from your fate?" Eliza challenged, she chuckled, "Or do you really think you can stay forever with this little girl?"
It surprised Lila how the woman was openly discussing these things. She should have suspected that when the woman didn"t send her out of the room. A deep sigh pa.s.sed her lips, well she supposes that it isn"t new already. Many people have often made the mistake of underestimating her because of her appearance. Before Lila could open her mouth, Haruka does.
"That"s interesting," Haruka chuckled, "Are you saying you can predict the future now? If so then please enlighten me on your idea of the future."
"If it"s the future, his vision should be enough."
At Eliza"s words Haruka burst into laughter, "His vision eh?" Haruka repeated amused, "You say some pretty interesting things. Senior or not, I believe you have no say in my personal life or my relations.h.i.+ps. I"ll chose who I want to stay with, and the future? I haven"t thought that far since I"m too focused on the present."
Eliza isn"t phased by his words, "Your still a naive child. You don"t understand how you shouldn"t play games with the adults in charge of your playground. As adults we know what is best for you. If you don"t listen then," Eliza giggled, "Who knows what could happen? Remember child, while you have power here. We can easily take that away from you."
Haruka continued to laugh, "That"s a very interesting theory of yours. But I think you"ve misunderstood something. The power I have in this place is mine and mine alone. If you want to test it, then feel free. But don"t come begging me to help you."
