Idle [Munette]

[Takuto]

It was raining again -- it's not THAT strong though -- like the time he first met her. Unlike before, this time, he was inside the dormitories -- in his room. It was not that late though. Actually, it's only just 3 o' clock in the afternoon. Takuto continued to lay down on his bed, face up. He hasn’t gone out of his room to get breakfast when he woke up. Circles were evident in his eyes. It was hard to sleep -- for him, that is.

The ceiling was plain white -- nothing relevant could be found there except the light bulb, of course -- with a few dusts. The light bulb was not lit up and no light leaked in the room. Yes, it was dark and eerie. This scenery that was used to Takuto -- the usual scenery, that is. There was something in the morning light that made him feel uneasy but he doesn't know.

Once again, he closed his eyes then he dozed off. As a normal human being, he was able to dream. As usual, it was something that he can't just get use to. He was inside a room, it was pitch black yet he could see bodies lying in front of him their clothes and skin drenched with crimson red liquid. His expression -- if compared to a child that has seen a ghost -- was in vengeance. It was anger mixed with shame and regret. Outside his dream, his body was starting to twitch.

He opened his eyes, bullets of sweat are falling from his forehead. With shame, he covered his eyes with his right hand. His breathing pattern was uneven -- it was faster than usual -- and his heart rate was going fast as well.

Nightmares, eh?

Looking at the clock, it was already 6 'o clock in the evening. Time goes so fast, eh? Wearing his usual attire, a green checkered button-up polo and a pair of jeans. While for the feet, he wore a simple pair of white sneakers -- randomly picked from his closet.

He stood up weakly and walked to the door. His hand was hesitating to open it but he was able to, at the end. He walked quietly but quickly to the canteen area. His hunger got over him. Considering that he wasn't able to eat breakfast and lunch. Looking at the window, it continued to rain and it was darker than usual because of the clouds hovering.

He took a slice of pizza and a can of iced mocha. Takuto, as always, sat down at the farthest table possible -- the table at the right corner. He sat back casually. He barely touched his food. After sometime, he began to slouch, blankly staring the food that he hasn't touched. At the same time, people started to look at him. His mind was off somewhere; not in Alice Academy but in the location wherein his dream happened.

[= Mune++e]

Raindrops fell from the dusk of sky. Sundown. From the dormitory window of Munette lays her olive green eyes. Wondering still. Spring comes and why is the rain is still in sight? Wondering endlessly, she looked down and noticed she, before mindlessly daydreaming, was doing her numerous homeworks. Mostly are due the next tomorrow. At least those that are for tomorrow are done fully. She sighed and her stomach growled, saying she needs the intake of energy. Well, from her usual AA uniform, she changed into her own style of clothing: a dull-colored blue t-shirt, some dirty flesh cargo pants and black rubber sandals, too lazy to wear her favorite lime green shoes. Oh well, she was hungry, a good reason to not wear it.

Ugh, it's nearly spring break and school works just keep getting worse each day, she thought with her eyes looking down with irritation. While thinking about pathetic school works, she walked towards the cafeteria door with her useless homeworks in her hands. ...I really don't want to procrastinate again. Then she scanned the room, few people are still there, and eventually picked the empty table at the right corner and placed those 'needed' papers on it. Without, glancing to her surroundings, she walked quickly to the cafeteria line and got food.

Due to her little allowance, she only got mushroom soup, mashed potatoes and an apple. Then as she returned, very concentrated on her food, she hasten eating the food but still with manners. While she was chewing her food, she picked one paper, which was an essay, and undoubtedly it's empty, except the instructions are written: There has been researches about the human brain, which they say that 'mindfully' one can communicate with the other. If for example you had read a friend's thoughts, what do you think is the reason behind this?

She smirked, and sarcastically thought, Wow, this is an easy one. I have a lot of friends to test on, and in a second she frowned at the paper, Friends...do I have one here? Then she let go of the paper and turned her face back to the food, she continued to reach for it and swallow it. As she finished her food besides the table. She stare blankly to it and thought of the people she had bumped into so far. Well, there's Rosielle, whom I met and I think she's busy right now being a PRO..hmm, Ely, too but I guess I don't have the time to look for her... So to find someone she knew, she scanned the whole room, starting from the back to the near front. Mostly, she saw some people staring to one direction. Hmm? Then turning her head quickly and curiously, she found someone in the next table in front of her. Her eyes aren't that clear to see him. But the blinking and narrowing of her eyes took effect and...

"...Takuto?"

Here is it! And it's long, too XD

[Takuto]

And it happened again.

The horrifying high-pitched shrieks and screams which supposed to belong from his mother resonated in his thoughts like an ear-deafening noise -- it has the possibility to hunt him for hours...or days, if worse. The ghost inside his heart is beginning to hunt him, placing more holes in it that barely no one can't patch it up. Socializing might be harder because this has happened. Moreover, that wouldn't be a pain, would it?

"...Takuto?"

There was one voice able to 'overtake' the surrounding voices around him. It was little and unsure as well. However, it didn't reach him. It was merely one of the voices in the back of his head. At least, that voice was able to call him unlike the surrounding voices that talked in unison.

The young man should try though -- try to forget this and look for the one who called him. Finally looking up, the light from the fluorescent lamps nearly blinded him. Though he sees those things, he can't help but still hear the resonating screams in his thoughts. He found 'her' -- it was more like she found him in the wrong place at the wrong time. THIS was the worst time he could be in. Could this be a sign? Takuto looked at her with dull and dark eyes. He was surprised but there was no hint of it shown in his eyes.

"Ah....You", he said to her in an uninterested tone. There wasn't a change in the tone of his voice. It was dull as ever.

Too lazy and tired to edit...so whatever

[= Mune++e]

Waiting for a sound to come out from his mouth, she thought of an idea. Something she was unsure if it would even work --- and of course, it's about the homework, Maybe, if I could... But before she could complete it, at last a sound was produced,

"Ah, you."

The tone, the face, and the words he has spoken out, she disappointedly thought, ...Or maybe not. There were a dull presence in those three, she observed. Also, what was with the 'you' there? He seemed to be a little bit impolite there. Bah, who cares? Those expressions made her pull back with her 'plan'. But still she thought twice for it in and at the same, she had the fear of disapproval. But if it doesn’t succeed, she wouldn't be able to finish this pathetic assignment before time.

So then she decided for the words. Then she voiced them out with a wobbly tone (still feeling a tiny bit of uncertainty about this idea),

"Err...would you mind...?”

She did not need to finish her sentence, as she clearly gestured her hands and fingers pointing to his table. A gesture to sit with him, she hoped. But of course, a smile had displayed in her delicate face as she spoke. Maybe a positive smile could fix this, she'd thought. But in the smile she had displayed, there was a hint of uneasiness in it, and mixing it with the wobbly tone, makes it more evident. Aside from that, she is prepared for rejecting her request. If perhaps she wouldn’t be able to do it, then she will choose Plan B, which she doesn’t have the tiniest clue on what it is all about.

[Takuto]

He was dull -- simply lifeless. He wasn't empty but he looks like he's going to be. He should, at least, be glad that she's here, right? But no enthusiasm was found in his eyes. Though he knows that his thoughts should stay in the future -- instead, it stayed in the past. He was immersed by the solidarity that he had.

"Err...would you mind...?”

"...I..don't...go ahead", the young man said bluntly without any hesitation or emotion. Even though he's been waiting -- looking -- for her, he didn't look at the girl's face. Takuto stared at his untouched food though it was quite improper to do so. He tends to do that though. He doesn't eat much but it isn't seen in his physical self.

Manners didn't matter this time. Even though it would concern someone he would care for. If her warmth could just reach him even further, then maybe he could forget it in an instant. But instead, it felt like it was the exact opposite. She was near yet distant at the same time. Her voice and appearance didn't help him. It should though.

[= Mune++e]

Jumped to her surprise, she didn't have the slightest idea on what to do next. She was more prepared for the denial of her offer rather than what she supposed to accomplish. Pretty weird, but it's the truth. She sat back for a while then noticed that she have to return her food tray with uneaten apple on it.

"Could you...wait for a sec?", with her index finger up showing a sign for 'a sec'. Embarrassed would be the look on her face as she hurriedly returned the tray, but still she held the undamaged apple and took a big bite as she returned to her sit. Then she stuffed with great haste her homeworks onto her arms with the part of the apple in her mouth. Of course, she would be uncomfortable if she would take the side of Takuto's sit. So she placed on the table those pesty homeworks and took a sit to the opposite side, not forgetting to pull out the bitten apple from her mouth.

So then, she sat with a sheepish smile. Never hoping this would be the result. She took again the apple in her hand and bit it quietly and carefully with her head down. She thinks of a way to start this...this plan of hers. She doesn't want to be anti-social, too and it's too late to step back. So she lifted her head up and her lips parted,

"So, how have you been lately?" since I last met you.

That's always been the route to start a nice...in a way conversation. Her natural self is just what she needs here. As soon as her lips are closed, still in her hands, she took a tiny bite from the blood red apple and still was gazing at him with a smile that didn't reach her olive green eyes.

[Takuto]

The young man didn't really mind if the girl would leave him. That's what always happen if one wanted to talk with him. One would usually leave in disappointment in the middle of their conversation, if there's any. Well, Takuto's been accustomed to that. There's nothing new to that actually.

He didn't react nor said anything. He remained still -- slouched and quiet. No one dared to touch his pale semi-frigid skin because of the fear that he may attack them; which is quite impossible in this case. He stared at his newfound companion, not minding where she's headed, not letting go of her from his sight.

He should start eating though. Since he's inside the cafeteria for a long time even though he barely touched his food. That would be quite improper and disrespectful for the ones who had made these. In his information, he knew that there are a lot of students who does these kind of things. This kind of occurrence wasn't unusual at all -- well, depending on the student.

"So, how have you been lately?"

So she came back. That's quite unusual yet so typical at the same time. The young man looked at her for a while then looked down taking slow breaths. How WAS he now? He didn't look fine -- the others think so too -- and yet she asks that obvious question?

"Fine"

A plain lie. Well, that's the answer one should tell right? The girl would know anyway -- so what's the problem about it? He finally looked at her -- still with dull eyes. There hasn't been that much change and his nightmare is turning him back to the way he was. He should try to, at least, be interested in this so she wouldn't turn away.

"...You?"

[= Mune++e]

The tone didn't wholly convince her for the word 'fine'. Well, that's usually the answer to that usual question whether it is honest or not. So she better answer him,

"Oh, I'm good."

She lifted the corner of her lips halfheartedly as she replied. Then she gazed back to the papers on top of table disgustedly, wanted to complain for these worthless things. Before he could notice it, she glanced to the window beside them. Still it's raining but not much. But it gives a sort of depressing mood to continue this 'fine' conversation. Then on the other side, she must continue this for a reason. So then she spoke,

"The rain,", and suddenly a thought strike to her mind like a thunder. Whenever they meet...it always strangely rain, whether it's light or heavy. It frightens her, if ever this has a positive sign...or the other, but she continued, "is always visible when we're together."

She chuckled to hide the fear, "Such a coincidence!”, still struggling at the thought of this eerie occurrence. she glanced back to him. In her face displayed a sort of cheerful expression then as she looked down it quickly changed into concern. She wondered, why?

[Takuto]

The young man continued to stare at the girl as she talked. It was as if he truly listening to her but nonsense came to his mind though. Their conversation didn't really matter but he tried to retain his attention to her. At least, it would not make her look like an idiot and it's supposed to be polite. But in a way, he IS listening.

"Coincidence, eh?"

Finally taking a bite from the cold pizza, Takuto was merely surprised. God knows how hungry he was at that moment. He didn't even notice that. The young man stared at his food, which was completely impolite, as the girl spoke again. The rain indeed falls when the two meet. A mere coincidence or an omen?

"Perhaps God forbids us to meet...", the young man said as casually as he could possibly can -- not to scare the girl, that is. The tone of his voice has shown a bit interest in the topic but dullness was visibly coherent in their conversation. The rain didn't scare him at all but it is awkward that it has to rain whenever they meet. That could help though -- being able to see her -- to know if she's there or not. But he shouldn't really believe in those things.

He opened his can of supposed-to-be-iced mocha, which was now lukewarm, and took a sip from it. He then realized that he was thirsty too. As he continued, the young man smirked, "...because he knows you'll be dearly endangered because of my very existence". Takuto strangely sighed after his statement. It wasn't because of disappointment or relief but surely, it would sound disappointed for the girl. His statement was nothing but a threat -- a mere warning to let her stay away.

He then smiled, dull as always, "scared?". This time, the tone of his voice showed concern but it was barely shown.

[= Mune++e]

"N-No!", she quickly raised her head up and showed confusion and surprise in one look. Her answer was announced right after his last word. What did he just meant about she'll be dearly endangered because of his existence? She felt as if he's...joking. Being overly sarcastic to himself. Were all his words honest? These questions kept on revolving around her mind with the shocked expression --- not entirely shocked, more on confusion that is. She held her apple tightly, never knowing what really is her reaction towards those words. But she did know that half of what he said was sincere. His smile shows more like a threat rather than being a burden. And that smile made her shiver, as if it could repel her- away from him. Now that her thoughts occupied her mind, she thought the boy now made her scared, but in reality, it did not. So to change his perspective to her, with a honest smile,

“No, no. I’m not scared. I mean, why should I? Am I---”

Then again, in a split second, something stray her away from her thoughts. And that something means the ‘other’ thoughts. It made her…not sad, but very disappointed. Her smile turned the other way around and her raised brows just fell down to a worried-like structure. Though she couldn’t bare the ‘other’ thought, she slowly looked down again, but this time, it showed like her shoulders are over her head. She still holds the apple tight, and now trembling. Gazing her disappointed eyes to it, she couldn’t even have the energy to bite it. Then to make sure her thoughts are right, she spoke,

“Am I...a bother to you?”

Her voice was like a whisper and her lips didn’t look as if they really parted. The way they talk, the way how it started, even the last time- the way he looks at her. Or maybe she’s just thinking too much? It seemed all were just…plain, too ordinary, dull. But there was a small part of hope that’s left in her heart, almost as if something drew out all the expectations in her, leaving a a little trace of it in there, yet hardly can be seen.

LOL. I hope your keyboard is fine now xD

[Takuto]

Takuto refused to look at the girl's face. He was aware of her reaction to this threat. However, he doesn't know how would she react. More or less, it would be pretty much the same as a normal human would have. He must have freaked her out right now but Takuto didn't wish that. He wanted her to stay, badly.

"Well, what's with that reaction?", the young man asked bluntly. He didn't dare to take a glance of the girl even though he knew that it would satisfy him. He continued to stare at his plate as if uninterested in their topic -- well, he is. He doesn't want to talk about this at all especially with the girl that he has been looking for a long time.

“Am I...a bother to you?”

That was unusual for her to ask and that awoken him from his thoughts. The young man was able to look up -- to look at her. He examined her face, her facial expression, and noticed that she was disappointed. Guilt started to fill his thoughts again. He shouldn't have said that.

"No, not really. Moreover, I should be the one to ask you that. You should, at least, be disgusted at me--", he abruptly stopped, hesitating to continue. Indeed, almost everything about him is simply...not good, a voice resonated inside his mind. Another memory of his that he didn't like. He simply wanted to know what she's thinking -- why she's refusing. Fear was obvious in the tone of her voice.

"Are you not?"

Thank God, it's fixed now. xDD

[= Mune++e]

She lifted her head, widened eyes, and definitely surprised. Relief, too would be her feeling. Her heart now weighed like a feather because her thought is wrong. But then she realized the young boy's expression exhibited...gulit?

"No, not really. Moreover, I should be the one to ask you that. You should, at least, be disgusted at me---are you not?"

From her bent back, she sat properly and gazed upon the apple she holds. Then unconsciously she played with it. Curiousness clouded around her mind. Like, why should she be afraid? Nothing really does scare her --- well, except for his dull expression he often shows. But that doesn't matter now, she suspected, Is he hiding something? Something...dreadful? Then she recalled the words he spoke not a long ago, about...staying away.

"Well, in fact I quite fear..." she then thinks of a suitable word for her expressions, "... your gaze. Well not only that, it feels like you're having an argument with... you. I just...seem to feel it, I don't know." Unexpectedly, she bloated out all of her suspicions. But at the very least, she opened up even though she was uncertain about it. Then again, she felt uneasy with what her words are about to come out. But the young girl wanted to know what's the cause of this repulsive chatter.

"Is there something...you need to talk about?"

Party for your fixed keyboard! woot~ xD. & sorry for the wrong grammar/spellings [if ever there is], too lazy =P

[Takuto]

He, once again, looked down at the cold food he had taken a bite of, waiting for her lips to move. He found it disgusting that he felt protective of the girl and how he wanted her to stay. It was simply not him to be like that. He should have shown irritation towards her when it comes to this. However, she's different. She had some kind of 'aura' that others don't have.

The young man listened attentively, he wanted to hear her thoughts about his statement. If he heard something that might hurt him, his thought about her will change dramatically. His hopes for her, if compared to something precious, would fall and be smashed into pieces. He might not control the anger that would be planted inside his heart. But, that wouldn't stop him from listening.

His dull gaze indeed scare a lot of people, especially children. However, he doesn't mind that. Scary or not, what would they know? His dull expression has always stayed wherever he goes and does. It might have stayed forever, if he hadn't met her.

"An arguement with myself?", the young man smirked as he thought. In what way would that be?

"It...doesn't concern you", Takuto said to her. His eyes showed a mix of concern and frustration. It also seems to be defensive. He didn't want her to know, how demonic he is. But there is a tendency that he would.

[= Mune++e]

None of her concern? Mayhap it's a little too personal, or private. On the other side, it could be unsafe for her. A possibility perhaps that a part --- or most --- of what she thought of is true (well, that's what she believed in). She was a bit startled, but not in his answer, but on what she just told to him. Quite unsure for herself, then realized she doesn't have much evidence on what she just thought of. She just bloated them out without knowing. Weird, you may think, but it's true.

Well, the sky kept on weeping and weeping, constantly. No harder nor softer, she noticed. Mayhap if they parted, it would stop... Wow, as if it is true. But it could be possible, but there's no time to leave. Not in this serious atmosphere. It feels uncomfortable to be in this unlikely situations, she should be careful in letting out her thoughts. Ha, better change this depression.

"Oh, it's fine. I feel a bit nosy in what I just said." She let out a soft chuckle, feeling stupid in what she said to him. Then naturally, she let out a warm smile, "My fault sorry", bowed down, continuing to smile. She wanted to forget the worries and those rotten homeworks, and better off have a nice, normal conversation with him. To know him better. No reason in particular. But maybe to be more sure, it would be 'No reason yet.'

I really ddn't know u posted xDD [stupid laptop, doesn't automatically refresh -_-"]. Too lazy to edit sorry =P xD

[Takuto]

The young man didn't bother to say anything about her statement. For one, she does seem to be nosy. However, it didn't affect him and he didn't mind. For some reason, he felt comfortable around her even though he rarely says anything. He continued to stare at his food -- the thing that he could only do at the moment. There wasn't anything to be talked about around her -- because he knows it would only be worse, more or less.

As the time passed by, he wasn't able to notice that the rain continued to pour. It seems to be stronger than before. Like the rain, he wasn't able to notice that the people inside the cafeteria was getting fewer by the second. Due to the girl's appearance, they don't seem to be staring at him anymore. Not that he minds that, they should have kept their business to themselves.

He was still tired about this. Yes, the screaming still continues inside his head. However, the girl was able to shift his attention to their conversation -- in a way. It was hard to forget the screams that was in his dreams -- because it already happened before.

SHI-...such a effing post (mine's). Ah well, too blocked. Sorry ^^;; Oh yeah, as I told you, it would be full of irrelevant stuff

[= Mune++e]

Hmm. Starting a new conversation would be not as easy as she thought it would be, especially with this guy. There's something aroused in the air that made her feel uneasy. Perhaps the silence, which she guessed that he's...uninterested. Another guess would be his some sort of aura. Dunno, but her world's getting distorted, like she's about to faint (But not really). Is her un20/20 vision doing this? Mayhap the food she swallowed a while ago or maybe her apple is poisonous like of Snow White’s, though the cafeteria in AA is excellent. So erase that. But most probably would be of her daydreaming too much.

That usually happens to her: too much thinking, more and more headache. Reflexively, she put her four fingers beside temples, letting the apple bounced on the table a little.So she rubbed and rubbed, not knowing her bitten blood red apple fell off. Not a thump was heard on the cement floor, but human instincts didn't fail. She stopped and realized that...it was [sure] awkward for her to start rubbing her temples in front of him. Sure she felt very embarrassed that her cheeks showed the rush of blood.

"Ahaha-ha...ha. Err, so..." She quickly grabbed the apple from the floor in a jiffy and grinned. Cannot think directly on what to speak out, all because of her mindful head. Hoping for something to fall out of the sky was impossible. Well, what will her next step would be?

And thus, a miracle happened, somehow…

…The rain stopped. Abruptly? For a minute, it rained harder. It’s like in a split of a second, all vanished. But of course, there's not much sunlight shone in daybreak. As soon as she realized it, the once occupied room is now almost like an empty shell. But nevertheless, it really made her look at the scenery outside, with glowing eyes. What just happened? Never letting go off her gaze, she nearly couldn’t breathe because of astonishment.

“…But, how?”

Afterwards, she glanced back to him, finding a probable answer.

WhoA. long ;;

[Takuto]

The rain stopped. He wasn't able to notice it; therefore, it didn't bother him. His existence was there as a mere display -- a horrible display that no one would dare to look at. Why was she trying? Why was she there -- for him? It made no sense for him at all. But it made sense that he was lying to himself; he always does, no doubt.

"This is sickening", he muttered under his breath.

Certainly, he had ignored her question. Takuto punched the table with his fist, making a loud 'thud'. Fortunately, it didn't break. His food shook for a while then it remained as it is -- only moved by a few inches. Definitely, he took the attention of people. He looked at her, eyes filled with fury and sadness.

"Don't...make me feel more guilty of how impure I am."

He sighed and smiled at her. It was a smile filled with sadness and guilt -- only making the situation worse. His eyes retained the same emotions as before as he stood up and left the cafeteria. The curious eyes of the people in the cafeteria followed him until he was out of their sight shifting it to the girl. Maybe, it meant that they aren't suppose to meet each other anymore

Takuto's speed gradually decelerates, as he found no one in sight. He leaned against the wall, his eyes were filled with anguish (LOL.) as he found himself unable to go further. This was something that he should have done a long time ago. But why does he feel more guilty now?

Told ya. Hmm. maybe you could follow him or something? to avoid ending the thread. XDD

[= Mune++e]

So it's true.

Never dared to lift her head up, she just felt his body moving away from her. A whisper, she heard. But still she's silent. So there is something. Feeling irritated, on how...indifferent he thinks. She just let the sound of his footsteps go on, and unsurprisingly it stopped. The feeling of guilt is in him. Impure, he was? So it's really all true. But the unknown still is what. What is impure of him? And a while ago he said 'endangered', 'disgusted'...and 'scared'. When those were mixed, it resembles a monster. Something unordinary. Inhuman.
Well, this IS an academy that is composed of magical and unordinary stuffs. Just like her. All of them are just the same in a way.

He thinks she would lure away from him? But it's normal for students like them, right? To be something...unique. Why would she be 'disgusted','scared' or what he called 'endangered'? But one thing's for sure, he didn't want to let her know how monstrous he could be. Knowing it made Munette, oddly more courageous rather than facing cowardice. It truly hurts her why he needs to feel guilt...just because of her.
Still as a statue, she suddenly parted her delicate lips within the silence. Softly, she knew he could hear it:

"Please...it's okay."

"Walking away would just...hurt you more. And I would feel much more guilt than you do."

She doesn't know if he still heard the second sentence she just spoke. It was softer, like a whisper. But it could be possible to be heard since they're all alone now in a huge room. From a steady position she stood up slowly, turned back with eyes filled with the mixture of care and guilt. Also is composed of a smile, the same composition as her olive green eyes. Her two hands covered her chest, wanting to stop her heart beating too fast. Breathe. Hoping she could do anything for them to be freed from guilt.

WAH. i didn't anymore edit it Dx. [cos u made me hurry = 3=] Sorry if ther're typos / wrong grammars LOL xD

[Takuto]

"This...should be better"

He smiled like before, but this time, for himself. A sigh escaped from his lips. Since he already decided to do this, he shouldn't have any attempts on seeing her. Hopefully, the girl wouldn't follow him — but then again, her uniqueness... He was doing this for her safety. Well, it was for anybody who intended to be close to him. He wanted no one, especially her, to get worried about him because of the mistakes he made as a child...until now. But he does the exact opposite, he does something to make anybody worried. It's sickening. He simply wanted them to be happy without any nuisance, like him, in their lives, wasn't that simple to hope for? This was his...atonement.

Footsteps, different than his, can be heard nearby. That wouldn't be her, would it? Like before, he hoped that it wasn't her — but what if, it was her? He sighed, then gritted his teeth. Anybody but her, damnit. He looked behind him, still hopeful. It was her, of all the people and Takuto was bemused. He let out a low, distressing chuckle. He was right, after all — she and her uniqueness. He turned his back against her and looked at the carpeted floor.

"I hope you noticed that I was trying to let you stay away. Why the hell did you follow me here?!", he growled between his gritted teeth.

He, once again, hit the wall using the side of his fist with frustration. He knew he would be hurting himself if he would continue this; all the more if he would decide to see her. The day should end with misery like the way it had started. He hated to be weak but he still remains to be. This senseless conversation should end.

At another sigh of frustration, he turned to his heels and walked towards the girl. His eyes were closed and his eyebrows were close enough to each other. He was obviously trying to control his temper. He stopped in front of her, then placed both of his hands on her shoulder. Finally, he opened his eyes, staring into hers, wherein a mix of seriousness and concern can be seen.

"Look, I simply wanted you...to stay away from me — to make you safe. Look at you, you're making yourself worked up just for my sake. I don't even deserve your sympathy and I know I would never be. Could you just go and leave me alone?"

I'm really sorry about that. xD

[= Mune++e]

His touch gave her a shiver. But his words made her ill.

At least, he cares. That's what his words were telling. But it's been confusing since his reaction would become so desperate. It's as if he really wanted her to go away...like forever. Does that still show care? She wondered. To believe in what she heard or what she saw? It's really hard to concentrate, because of his two masculine hands on her sheepish shoulders. Her head bowed, but not too low, as long as the eyes won't be seen, only her smile. He wouldn't know what would the description of her smile would be if she did this, right?

But to be more certain, she lifted his hands off gently. Then let them go off them quickly. She turned, her back facing him and her hands holding to each other on her back.

"If I will go..."

Still on her position, she didn't move but bowed her head lower as if she found something petite on the floor.

"...do you think that all will be better?"

Her voice didn't change a tone. It's as usual, but just softer. To sum it up, she intended to not show him her expressions onto this. It would just confuse him more, she thought. She will just stay calm and expressionless as possible. Though deep inside...

Finally made them into words!! xD. In teh post, her feelings will be unknown :3
