Dream Star

A few days had gone by since then, without her seeing Kiryu at all. These days she spends more time with Haruka.

Currently, they were in the living room, just relaxing. It was the weekend, and they both had a day off.

"What?"

"Hubby, you know Kiryu kissed me...aren"t you angry?"

"Well, it"s not like you kissed him. Still," his lips brushed against hers, "I am very protective over these pretty lips of yours. Maybe I should punish you for letting your guard down?"

"Punishment please," Lila pointed to her lips, and Haruka laughed.

"Maybe I should punish you by not kissing you?"

Won"t he kiss her? Lila panicked.

But that panic only lasted a few minutes when she felt his warm lips on hers, "I"m kidding, I"d never pa.s.s out on a chance to kiss you."

Lila quickly turned back to composing, "Don"t look him in the eyes." Whenever they do anything these days, she feels more nervous than usual.

"Hey, wife?"

"Yes?"

He brushed his hands on her forehead, "Mmm, you"re still feverish. Once your finished, lay back down. Eat first, and I"ll give you some medicine."

"Okay, thank you."

Ever since he found out about her condition, he is so attentive to her. Has something changed, huh? Lila extended her hand out, "Hug."

"Mmm," Haruka nodded and pulled her into his arms, she felt his lips on her hair, and a content sigh pa.s.sed her lips. "These days, I"m so happy with you wife."

"Me too."

Since that whole thing with Mei pa.s.sed by, it feels like they overcame a ma.s.sive storm. "Wife, take care of your health. These days, you look so pale..."

Her gaze softened at his words, "I"m fine, hubby, you"re with me. So I"m better."

She wasn"t just trying to make him feel better. Ever since Haruka learned of her condition, he"s done his best to support her. Even taking charge of all her meals, ensuring she gets enough sleep. He accompanies her to all her jobs and ensures there are no problems.

These things may seem small, but for her who has been struggling and bearing with the pain this whole time. Haruka"s actions were like a breath of fresh air. "Hubby, Yumeko, and the others returned to Light town for a bit to take exams. Shouldn"t I have gone with them?"

"No, it"s fine. You can study here."

"Hubby, we haven"t done anything in a few days. You"re okay with that?"

"It"s killing me."

Lila laughed, "I see."

"But I understand your condition. I won"t be reckless anymore. If you want to...do something, we can...but in moderation.."

Lila turned red, "Um, it"s okay we don"t have to..."

"There are ways, without doing that..."

"Hubby quit it. You"ll make me want you."

Laughter, "I"m kidding. I"m going to take a bath; stay put here, okay?"

She shyly nodded her head and waited until Haruka left the room. The moment he left, Lila held back her sigh. "Lately, things are so different that she doesn"t know what to think anymore." The change is undoubtedly good like this, people won"t look down on Haruka too much.

Her gaze fell on the song she was writing. Lila thought she could try and write a song. Any kind of song to reflect these changes. But maybe because everything is happening so suddenly, she couldn"t write anything. Lila reached out for the paper and scrunched it up into a ball shape, before tossing it on the bin.

Since that time, Lila glanced over at her songbook, where she knew there were songs there. Songs he gave her, "Think about it, okay?" She already chose Kiryu"s song for the recent festival. Lila didn"t want to do any more than that.

Still, Lila cursed Kiryu in her head. Why did he have to give her a bunch of songs? What was he thinking... No, Lila understood what he was thinking. From a musician"s perspective, somebody writing this many songs for her should be a good thing. But Lila felt weird about it.

Kiryu and her have broken up. Indeed, their relations.h.i.+p can"t return to how it was before. It"s true them aiming for friends is strange. But, even then, she ought to try. She can"t fall into the same trap anymore.

Lila reached out for the book and pulled out one of the scores.

[Our Sign]

"Our..."

She bit her lip. Aahhh, Kiryu is so stupid! Is he an idiot, what is he trying to do? Is this his way of insisting he won"t give up on her. No, up until now, Kiryu has seriously tried to give up on her. But, lately...is it because of the festival? Lila knew what would happen if she chose Kiryu"s song. But she still chooses it, anyway. Even if they can"t be a couple anymore. Lila wanted to have a connection with him. It is selfish of her, but for her, this is the only way.

Realizing her thoughts were going astray. Lila quickly stood up and made her way to the bathroom.

"Haruka?" Lila peeked through the door.

"Hm? What"s wrong, wife?"

"Me too."

Haruka smiled and walked over. Thankfully the room was covered in steam; otherwise, she would be too embarra.s.sed.

"Wife, why did you enter the bath with clothes on? You"ll get sick."

Indeed the clothes were sticking to her body now.

"Take it off for me, hubby. ."

"Mmm, I can do that."

Lila felt him strip her of her clothing in seconds. His hands are fast as usual; he brought her over to the shower and hugged her tightly. "Wife, you"re pretty. Did you come here to seduce me?"

Haruka gently kissed her forehead, "I won"t be drastic."

Lila nodded and felt Haruka"s lips on her neck. Sure enough, even without him entering her. He had his ways to make her feel good. It was truly embarra.s.sing for her. But, she feels calmer now. She wrapped her arms around his neck, and a content sigh pa.s.sed her lips.

"Wife?" Haruka mumbled.

"I"m fine."

She is fine, as long as she is with him.

...

"Your body, it"s fine?" Haruka asked once they were inside the bathtub.

Lila nodded, "Yes." They didn"t do it, so naturally, she ought to be okay.

"Happy?"

"I am, I was a bit bothered by it. We used to do it every day, but now your..."

Haruka"s smile remained gentle as he kissed her lips lightly. "I know wife. But don"t be uneasy. I think we can spend peaceful moments like this too."

"Okay, hubby, I understand. But can we still kiss? I like it."

"That we can do, let"s do things at your own pace."

He"s so understanding.. Lila leaned into his chest, "Hmm, wife?"

"Zane is quiet these days, do you think he is planning something?"

"He is. But rest a.s.sured, I"ll handle it."

"That thing you mentioned before about accompanying Aizawa every day?" Lila inquired.

Haruka chuckled, "Relax. I"m not doing it. After what we did to her, I"m surprised she still has the nerve to go along with that plan."

"There are many shameless people in this world hubby; you shouldn"t be too surprised."

It still struck her as odd, though. Aizawa Mei was visibly shaken after what happened. She still hasn"t left the hospital too. According to the nurses, the girl has violent outbursts every night. But apparently, Zane got the girl to agree with the plan? That sounded wrong to her. As Lila debated about it in her head, she felt Haruka"s lips on her neck. At first, she thought he was kissing her. But after a while, she felt her cheeks heat up.

"You know, if you want to do something, just do it already!" Lila exclaimed.

"Hm, what are you talking about, wife?"

This man, why is he purposely teasing her? It"s foul play! Still, Lila had to admit that Haruka really has been holding himself back. She peered at him, "Hubby, your well behaved. I"ll reward you."

A half baked laugh escaped Haruka"s lips. "I only behave in front of you wife."

"Ah-huh, so what have you been doing sneaking around outside?"

"Why are you so sharp, wife? How do I plan surprises for you if you"re like that?"

She raised her eyebrows at this comment, "Surprise?"

"Mm, planning a surprise for you wife."

So, it"s not something weird? A relieved sigh escaped her — no need to act paranoid over nothing. Haruka won"t do anything unreasonable. Her paranoia is something she needs to get over. He is trying her best for her, after all.
