Gifts from the Heart

Tenpei's Love

You're my Angel

I am currently at Rua and Ruka's home. Rua and I were dueling in their yard. Ruka was watching nearby sitting on a bench. It's Valentine's Day today. And I got the perfect gift to give to her. Problem is…

"Hey Tenpei, focus on the duel!" Rua shouted from the other side of the field.

"Ah!" I said surprised when his Morphtronic Celfon attacked me directly resulting in losing my remaining life points ending our duel. Not to mention causing me to fall backwards. My glasses almost falling off in the process. The Solid Vision faded away whilst Rua and Ruka sprinted towards me.

"Geez Tenpei! Your game is off." Rua said annoyed brows furrowing that I didn't play my best in our duel.

"Sorry." I apologized smiling and feeling awkward having fallen down. "I just had something on my mind." I said as I straightened out my glasses and used my hands to stand myself back up.

"Are you ok?" Ruka asked kind as always. I nodded to her unable to speak as I felt a little heat creep up to my face. Feeling a little self conscious under her gaze.

"I want a rematch Tenpei since you weren't serious that time." Rua demanded eyes narrowing and arms folded across his chest. Clearly he was angry by the way I handled the duel.

"Sure." I said trying to appease him. It didn't work as his eyes remained narrowed.

"Before you guys Duel again let's have some snacks." Ruka announced as she headed towards the glass doors leading to their living room. Rua's mood immediately brightened at the mention of food and forgot his anger towards me. Rua and I followed after her.

"Can you make us some sandwiches?" Rua told more than asked already expecting her to say yes.

"Why don't you make your own?" Ruka asked slightly annoyed at the way Rua asked.

"Oh please Ruka?" Rua begged his sister.

"Fine, fine." She gave in to the puppy dog eyes routine Rua gave her. I laughed lightly at their antics. "What drinks would you guys like?" she inquired as we got into the living room.

"Just some pop." Rua and I sat down on the sofa. He flicked the holovision on and tuned it on to King Jack Atlus's latest match. Ruka meanwhile walked to the kitchen. Ah! This is my chance.

"I'm gonna go help Ruka." I told Rua who was now transfixed on the King's Duel. He waved his hand signaling that he heard. And I ambled myself to the kitchen.

In the kitchen I saw Ruka busy making our sandwiches. I couldn't help but stare at her. She was beautiful, kind and a very caring sister to Rua. She seems to have noticed me by the doorway.

"Was there something you wanted?" She asked her eyes focused on me. I felt the heat return to my face.

"I-I-I just t-thought that y-you might need some help." I stammered. I felt blood rushing to my cheeks. Feeling foolish of my stuttering.

"There's no need. I'm done anyway." She said oblivious to my embarrassment. She put the sandwiches on a plate and the plate and glasses full of pop on a tray.

"I see." I laughed a bit out of nervousness. She started lifting the tray off the kitchen counter. If she leaves now I'll lose my chance to give her my gift.

"Wait." I said. She looked at me mentally asking if there was something else I wanted as she put the tray back down. "It's just that…" I pulled my gift out of my right pocket. And just lifted it to her direction and said "Here. Happy Valentine's Day!" I kept my head down not wanting her to see my blush. I looked up as I felt her hand brush against mines as she took the gift from me. I stood up straight feeling my blush fading away. She started pulling the red bow off the pink box and lifted the lid. She smiled even brighter as she pulled out the two duel monster cards from the box. They were Guardian Angel Joan and Cestus of Dalga.

"I just thought you might like to add these to your deck." I looked away feeling the blush threatening to come back.

I wonder if she understands that the reason why I decided to get her Guardian Angel Joan was because I think she's so beautiful and kind and radiant just like that angel depicted in the card. I wonder if she understands that the reason I got her Cestus of Dalga was because I wish her to be strong and not frail and sickly that she sometimes gets. I wonder if she understands that I like her.

"Thank you." She said sweetly. She walked back to the kitchen counter and pulled two boxes out from a drawer.

"Happy Valentine's Day." She said handing me the white box with a red ribbon on it. I opened the gift not surprised to see the white chocolates in the box. It was a tradition after all for girls to give chocolate to their male friends on this day.

"Thanks." I said calm again.

"I really like your gift." She said and kissed me on the cheek. In shock I didn't notice her walk back to the counter getting the tray and exiting the kitchen. When I finally got over the shock I felt my face go all red and then I got out the kitchen and sat myself on Rua's right seeing that Ruka was by his other side. My face was still all red.

Ruka handed a box to him and Rua opened it and started devouring the dark chocolates in it. "Happy Valentine's Day Rua."

"Ah! Valentine's was today?" Rua questioned. I guess he forgot to get Ruka a present.

"It's fine. I expected you to forget anyway." Ruka said happily.

"I'm sorry Ruka." Rua apologized. "I'll get you something later I promise." Rua said apologetically.

"It's fine. It's fine." She insisted that she didn't mind.

"How about you Tenpei? Did you get Ruka something?" If possible I felt my face blush even more.

"I already gave it to her." I managed to say without stammering.

"What was it?" I grabbed a chocolate in my box and stuffed it in my mouth to not have to answer him.

"It's a secret." Ruka said blissfully.

"But I don't want to end up getting you the same thing."

Ruka looked towards me. "Trust me Rua. It was a very special gift." Rua just looked at me questioningly. While Ruka giggled at my red face. I felt more blood rush to my cheeks. I might as well be like my bow tie.

Author's Notes:

I have written stories just for Valentine's Day/Week. It's all about the guys giving their Valentine their gifts. I will update this daily for until I run out of stories.

This was fun to write. I adore the idea of Tenpei having a crush on Ruka. It would just be too cute! ^o^ Is the coupling cannon? fannon? Who knows? Hehe...

And yes in Japan it is a tradition for girls to give chocolate to all their male friends on Valentine's day. Some do only give to their valentine. But in general from the Mangas I've read girls will give chocolates to all their friends. Usually handmade. But can be bought too since not all of us can cook well. Like well me. Hehe...

Next day's story will be Yusei and Aki. Do leave a review on your way out!

Happy Valentine's Day

Till tomorrow.
