Dream Star

"Haruka," Lila panted against his lips, "This feels a bit uncomfortable," Haruka had her backed against the counter .

"Sorry, few more minutes?"

"A few minutes? Seems like he won"t let her go for a few hours," Lila thought . She already knew Haruka well by now . When it comes to s.e.x, a few minutes is a couple of hours . Since it doesn"t seem like she will sleep tonight, she ought to at least improve her situation .

"Bed . . "

Haruka smiles, "Mmm, right . Up you go," he lifted her up in his arms and Lila wrapped her arms around his neck .

Eventually, they arrived in the bedroom, to her surprise, Haruka flicked the lights on . Lila blushed and hit him, "Dummy, why do we need the lights on?" What sorts of things is he planning now?

Haruka didn"t reply to her, making Lyn feel even more nervous than before . Is he going to try something weird?

"What did you just give me?"

"Something," Haruka nibbled her ear, "I don"t want you to pa.s.s out tonight . "

. . . .

6:00 am

"Haruka?" Lila called out . She rubbed her sleepy eyelids and looked around the room . "He isn"t here," Lila thought . But, she knew he was still in the house .

"Breakfast in bed . "

Lila"s eyes lit up at his words, and she clasped her hands, "A surprise?"

"I pushed you too hard last night . "

Lila"s cheeks grew hot at his words, and she looked away . He"s way too casual about it . But isn"t she the stupid one for getting embarra.s.sed? Haruka reached over and brushed his hand against her forehead, "Hnn, you"re a bit feverish . When do you have work?"

"11 . "

"Then," Haruka"s lips curve to a smile, "I"ll keep you company for a while . Go back to sleep . "

"Okay . "

Lila turned to the food, she should eat first and then sleep? But one shouldn"t rest right after eating . Haruka laid down beside her, and Lila immediately made her mind up as she snuggled into his hold .

After a few minutes, she hears Haruka quietly whisper, "Lila, mmm I love you . "

"Wahhh! A confession . "

Haruka laughed, "Go to sleep . "

If she pretends to sleep, will he say more things? Her thoughts broke off when she felt Haruka"s hand gently caress her hair, and then it seemed to linger in different parts of her body . She was wearing clothes, and yet Lila felt very embarra.s.sed .

"Um, what are you doing to me?"

"Just touching," his lips curve to a smile, "Your very pretty after all . "

"Did something happen again, you keep giving me compliments?" sensing his silence, Lila frowned and pulled away from his embrace, "Something happened?" Lila repeated .

"Get on top of me," Haruka instructed . Lila sighed but did as he said . Whenever they got like this, she would become somewhat embarra.s.sed . But this time around maybe talking like this was better . She gently caressed his cheeks with her hands, and Haruka leaned into her palm . For a few seconds, they exchange no words, "I have to be caught in a scandal with Aizawa soon . "

This piece of news didn"t surprise Lila at all . After all, she has been snooping around and following him for a reason .

"When?"

"Right before the first round of the main tournament . "

Lila sighed, "They want to use this to boost her image for the tournament?"

"Yeah . "

How annoying, why do people have to resort to such means to get famous? Indeed, reaching the top with hard work and effort alone is not possible . However, "resorting to such means, does that girl like singing at all?" Lila thought . Unless somebody was forcing Aizawa, one usually wouldn"t accept it . It didn"t take long before Lila came up with something . The frown on her face deepened . No, this time around, it"s not a matter of forcing .

That woman really is a white lotus . It seems like Aizawa Mei wants to continue pus.h.i.+ng her luck with her . That woman is no fan of hers . Aizawa Mei knew a lot about her, the woman even attended her concerts often . How come? No matter how much Lila thought about it, she couldn"t come up with an answer .

Haruka"s hands ran through her neck, then her b.r.e.a.s.t.s . Lila sighed, of course, he does this . "Quit it . I"m thinking," she snapped . Lila seldom got mad at him . But when she is in deep thought, she disliked it when people interrupted her . She"s just going to brush aside her thoughts just now, her thoughts about it feeling nice .

"Lila," Haruka called out, "I really, really like you . "

Her cheeks reddened at his sudden words, and Lila coughed, "Okay, quit with the praise . I already know there is a problem . "

If the Haruka who usually doesn"t say such honest things is saying them now . . Well, it"s only natural for her to feel nervous . Other than the stuff with Aizawa Mei, he isn"t hiding anything else . Lila should know since she asked somebody to spy on Haruka for her . By somebody she meant Izumi . That"s why he"s in a bad mood lately because instead of guarding her . Lila asked him to spy . This is for the sake of the future, though .

It did relieve her when she heard that other than the company forcing Haruka to do things . Haruka himself did not willingly take part in anything . Still, "Haruka, you"re not taking those drugs anymore, right?"

"Hmm?"

She recalled what Izumi said and choose her words carefully, "I don"t want you to take them anymore . I know you feel like you need them, but believe me, you don"t . "

Rather, she still doesn"t understand why he relies on drinking drugs too much .

"How about when I"m in pain?"

Lila shook her head, "Especially then," Lila trailed off, "If you"re in pain, just call me . I"ll come flying to you . "

Haruka"s hands slid around her waist, "From now on, things will be getting very dangerous . I"m unsure whether I"d have the strength to protect you . But, even then you"ll remain with me?" Haruka said seriously . The surrounding atmosphere around him was different . It felt almost menacing and yet Lila could see it in his eyes . His eyes tell the truth . There"s a mixture of pain and sadness there, pain that will not disappear overnight .

Her gaze softened, she can"t leave him alone . This person loves her so much to the point that he"s become so confused, so lost . Lila leaned forward and pressed her lips against Haruka"s . This time it wasn"t a gentle kiss as she tried to pry his mouth open . Lila was successful and intertwined their tongues with each other . The sensation of the kiss, and his hands roaming on her sides slowly but surely drove her crazy .

"He"s not saying anything," Lila thought . But then again, it"s not like she answered his question either . Haruka, Haruka - Lila repeated his name in her head over and over again . The two of them spend the next few minutes in a heated embrace, kissing pa.s.sionately — hands all over each other .

Why doesn"t he just do it, why is he stalling? Every so often Haruka"s hands would stop just when she wanted it inside, Lila face grew hot . What is she thinking?!! Getting caught up in the flow is one thing, but to act like a pervert on top of it? Ever since she met Haruka, she"s become so strange .

Suddenly Haruka stopped, "What about breakfast? You need to eat, and your fever?"

Lila sighed and stared at him, dumbfounded . Is he saying all of this stuff now? After all of this . Lila discarded her s.h.i.+rt, and Haruka"s eyes widened, "D-don"t just stare, do something already . "

It took a few minutes before Haruka gave her his reply, "It seems like you"re getting better at seducing me, huh?"

That"s because -- her thoughts broke off when she felt sudden movement from Haruka"s pants . Ahh .

"We do still have time . Since you"re not satisfied by last night, then I"ll oblige you for more," he brought his lips to her ear, "Tell me if you want to stop . "

. . . . .

At precisely 11:00 am, Lila stepped out of the car and arrived at a familiar building . It was a place she frequently went to work with her G.o.ddess4 members .

"So um," Lila shyly turned to him . After what they did, Lila didn"t know what to say to him anymore . It"s unfair that Haruka always renders her speechless after they do anything . Is it merely because she has less experience than him? Is that why she ends up feeling this way, "Later on . . "

"You will see me for lunch? Yeah . "

Lila flushed red . This isn"t fair! She wanted to ask him out properly, instead of the usual way . Why did he just finish her sentence of like that? How conceited . "Then, I"m going to leave now," Lila murmured .

"Mmm . "

Lila walked away from him and headed towards the building . But the whole time Lila felt him staring at her .

… Ahhh geez, forget it! Lila immediately rushed back and flung her arms across his neck . Haruka bends down and kisses her, "My wife, you know me so well . "

"Stupid, stupid, dummy . Idiot, moron," Lila continued to insult him .

"Mmm," Haruka parted their lips before he placed a gentle kiss on her forehead . "I"ll see you later . Message me . "

"Okay . "
