Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters. I just own the plot.
"Achoo! Crap…how the hell did I get a cold? I have no time for colds…I have to cook…" Yuhi mumbled as he made his way to his bathroom. "Maybe a warm bath will help me get better than just lying in bed staring into space." Yuhi turned on the faucet to start his bath. He took off his clothes and wrapped a towel around his waist. He grabbed his cd player to listen to while he's taking his bath. "I haven't listen to any music lately…ever since she came I had no time for this stuff. I sure miss listening to my favorite songs. What's this next to my cd player…Oh…so that's were my bubble bath bottle is at! Man I've been looking for this baby for ages! I'll surely get well with this." He walked toward the bathtub, unraveled his towel, and slowly went in the tub. He poured the whole liquid in the tub and stirred it. 'Hmph…just like cooking…' Yuhi thought. He laid there looking up the ceiling and suddenly saw Aya's image. "Augh! Everywhere I go Aya…you're always on my mind!" He closed his eyes tight and opened them again. He saw the real Aya right in front of him. There was an awkward silence.
"Hi…Suzumi told me you got a cold…so she asked me to bring the food up for you. You know the one that you were making but you didn't finish. So I continued it for you…" Aya said softly. Yuhi looked at the well set meal next to the tub then Aya. He raised his hand and touched Aya's cheek.
"You're an amazing woman…" Yuhi said. Aya smiled and put her hand on his.
"What I said earlier…you know…you being such a great friend…well…you're not…" Aya said. "You're the best…you were the first to notice me…at the park…you cared for me…just like my brother. I love you Yuhi…" Yuhi's eyes widened. He then smiled. He brought her closer to him and kissed her. She pulled off him.
"What's wrong?" Yuhi asked.
"Just wait… Close your eyes and relax…" Aya trailed off as she left his bathroom. Yuhi sighed and did what she said. Aya undressed and walked quietly toward the tub. She went in the tub with Yuhi trying to be as quiet as possible. "Open your eyes…"
"Aya…What are you-" Aya kissed him quickly. Yuhi laid back just loving this. His body and Aya's are together touching each others skin. He closed his eyes for a minute and opened them. Instead of seeing Aya he saw Mrs. Q on top of him. "AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaHHhhhhhhhhh! WHAT THE FUCK!" He got up and ran out of the bathroom. He took a spare towel and ran out of his room slamming the door behind him. He put his hand on his lips. "I knew it was too good to be true…I must've been really sick to imagine Mrs. Q as Aya. Shit! I don't feel too good…Just thinking about it makes me want to vomit." Suddenly, Suzumi came running up the stairs.
"What happened?" Suzumi asked staring at Yuhi who was sitting in front of his room.
"I don't want to talk about it…If I do then I think I'll get much sicker…" Yuhi said wiping off the cold sweat appearing on his head.
"What's going on Suzumi?" Aya asked making her way towards the two. She saw Yuhi sitting on the floor with a towel wrapped around his waist. He was all wet and pale like he saw a ghost. She ran towards him. "Yuhi are you okay?" Aya noticed he was shivering.
"I'm fine…it's just that an INTRUDER cough cough MRS. Q cough cough came into my room…" Yuhi said. Aya put her arms around him. Yuhi was stricken.
"Suzumi…can you get some warm clothes for Yuhi…He's going to burn up if he's not in his clothes." Aya said. Suzumi nodded. "Don't worry Yuhi…I'll keep you warm for the meantime."
"You're clothes…they're going to get wet…and you might catch a cold as well…I don't want you to catch a cold too…" Yuhi said. 'She's so warm. Her arms around me…'
"If I'll catch a cold then let it be…I don't want you to be really sick…you might get pneumonia if you don't get some warmth. And if I get sick then we'll be sick together so you won't be lonely…" Aya said. Yuhi placed his wet arms around her and pulled her head close to his cheeks. He started kissing her neck. Yuhi slipped both of his hands under Aya's shirt which made Aya gasp due to his cold hands. But Yuhi didn't care at all. He just wanted Aya to be his at the moment.
"Hey Aya…I'll be going…" Toya stood there and saw Aya and Yuhi making out. "Now…" Aya looked up and turned red when Toya saw her holding Yuhi and letting him make love to her. Yuhi stopped and turned where Aya was looking at. He frowned when he saw Toya standing there. He then looked away and gritted his teeth. Aya got up slowly and walked towards Toya.
"Yuhi…I'll just accompany Toya to his car okay?" Aya said softly.
"Yeah…okay…sure…You didn't even need my permission…" Yuhi muttered. Aya walked down with Toya. Toya said bye to everyone. They both went outside. Toya looked at Aya.
"Hey…You okay? You haven't said a word to me ever since we came down…" Toya said to Aya. Aya shook her head and turned her head away from him. Toya put his index finger below Aya's chin and moved it so he can see her face.
"Sorry…" Aya said softly.
"Why? I'm the one who should be sorry. You know back there at the movies…I didn't know you were out on a date with Aogiri and I gave you my number without seeming to care in the world. You just drew my attention with your beauty. I ruined your evening with him by making him jealous. I'm so selfish…" Toya said. He laughed softly. "Hitting on another guy's girlfriend…"
"I don't really know if it is official…I mean…Yuhi and I…He never mentioned anything to me about me being her girlfriend and all. He only said that he loved me but it doesn't prove anything…does it?" Aya asked. Toya rested his arms on Aya's shoulders.
"I don't know…I'm not him. If I was in his position…I'd say that I love you and I'd ask for you to be my girlfriend…afterwards…I'd…" Toya looked at Aya in the eyes. He suddenly kissed her and pulled away immediately. "That's what I'd do to seal the deal as a relationship with you."
"Then what…" Aya asked playfully.
"Let's just say that I'll be all over you as the next step…" Toya said and laughed. Aya giggled. "But really…I'd do that if I were in Aogiri's spot for you stole my heart away Aya Mikage…" Toya walked toward his car. He got in and saw that Aya was still staring at him. He then smiled and winked at her. He pulled off of the driveway and drove off. Aya sighed and walked in the house.
"Hey Aya…what's up?" Aki asked looking at his sister's worried face. He made his way towards the couch and sat on it.
"Uh…nothing much…hey Aki…you've had tons of girls who'd fallen for you right?" Aya asked as she sat next to her brother. Aki nodded. "Then how did you choose your lover when two of those girls you both adore are in love with you?"
"Uhm…I can't quite answer that Aya…you see I never had a girlfriend…The girl I want to be with can't be with me for it's a forbidden love…"Aki said softly.
"And who is this girl…" Aya asked as she raised an eyebrow. Aki put one of his arms around Aya.
"You…" Aki replied. He chuckled and kissed Aya on the cheek. Aya's mouth dropped. "You've always been a gullible butthead…"
"YOU JERK!" Aya yelled at him. Aya tossed one of the couch's pillows at Aki. "But really…answer my question."
"Well…I've never been in love really…So how should I know…I'm to busy to be in love at the moment. But soon I'll find the right woman for me to be your sister-in-law," Aki said. "Now get some sleep you heartthrob…" Aki smiled at Aya as she walked upstairs. "I'll never find a woman for me Aya…Well I can't for now…until you find a man who'll take care of you 24/7…so choose wisely…" Aya went inside the room she was staying at. She saw that Yuhi seemed to have put a separator between them tonight. Her night clothes were laid out for her on her bed. She took it and sneaked in Yuhi's side since the bathroom was there. She saw that Yuhi was sound asleep. She went in the bathroom and set up her bath. While her bath was getting ready she decided to check on Yuhi. She placed her hand on his forehead.
"You're still sick…" Aya said softly. She went to check on her bath. Aya undressed and got in it. She washed her face and her arm with soap. "Now the back…" She grabbed the soap and tried to wash her back. Then someone took the soap from her hand. She froze.
"Here let me get your back…" Aya turned around and saw Yuhi. She nodded. She felt his hands on his back. She felt so comfortable and relax when he was washing her back. "So what did that jerk say to you before he left…"
"Nothing really…" Aya said.
"Sure…" Yuhi said.
"Well he said he was sorry for ruining our date…" Aya trailed off.
"Oh…" Yuhi said.
"Yuhi…Can I ask you a question?" Aya said.
"Spill…" Yuhi said.
"Do you…do you…well…am I…you know…do you…" Aya tried to start.
"Spit it out already…" Yuhi said impatiently.
"Do you think of me as well….your girlfriend?" Aya asked softly. Yuhi was shocked about her question. He didn't know what to say. "Well do you-" Before Aya could repeat her question her lips and Yuhi's lips were locked on together. A tear drop rolled down her cheek and pulled off from Yuhi's lips. She just got up not caring if she was undressed. She grabbed her clothes quickly and went to her side of the separator. Yuhi covered his face with his hands.
"Yuhi…you're so stupid…Why didn't you answer her?" He said to himself. "That was your chance and you screwed it…" Aya wiped her tears and got dressed in her night clothes. She slipped under her covers and closed her eyes shut trying to sleep. Yuhi decided to get back to bed and had regretted what he had done. Twenty-minutes later he heard Aya coughing. He went over to her side to check up on her. She was soaking in cold sweat and was burning up. He also noticed that she was shaking. Yuhi sighed and grabbed his pillow and his blanket. He had to do something so that she wouldn't feel cold. He also grabbed a piece of paper and a pen. He had scribbled something on it and had put it next to Aya. He looked at her and kissed her on the cheek. "Feel better you idiot…" He settled next to her and closed his eyes. Aya turned then turned to Yuhi's side. She had her right arm around his waist and her head on his chest. "Using me as a pillow now huh?" Yuhi chuckled. He then put his arm around her trying to keep her warm. He brought her closer to him and fell into a deep sleep. The sun had finally risen. Aya opened her eyes and saw Yuhi next to her. She noticed that her right arm was around him and his arm was around her.
"Crap…now how am I supposed to get out of this position?" Aya muttered. She carefully and slowly lifted Yuhi's arm off of her. When she got up she noticed a paper next to her bed. She opened it up and it said:
Aya
Sorry about last night…
You know how I didn't answer you…
I didn't know what to say to you…
I was afraid if I said yes to your question…
That you'd reject me and go with Mizuki…
But to answer your question…
I do think of you as my girlfriend…
I mean we did go out and made love and we did kiss several times…
Isn't that what love is suppose to be?
But if it isn't enough for you…
Then I understand…
You don't have to be with me if you don't want to…
I just want to let you know that…
I really am in love with you.
You stole my heart away Aya…
Yuhi
"That's what Toya said to me…But…I'm sorry Toya…I'm in already into someone…and that is my first love…Yuhi…I love you too…" Aya whispered to Yuhi's ear. She went on top of him slowly. She kissed him redundantly. Aya slipped her hands inside Yuhi's undershirt. Yuhi moaned and opened his eyes. He saw Aya on top of him kissing him on the lips for the first time. He put both of his hand on Aya's back. He stroked his fingers up and down her spine. Aya giggled and put the covers on top of them for privacy.
"Ah…Aki you're awake I see…" Suzumi said.
"Yeah…I slept like a baby last night," Aki said.
"Well unfortunately we don't have breakfast made for anyone yet. The king of the Kingdom Kitchen hadn't awakened yet. But I'll go up to do the honor," Suzumi said. Suzumi walked up to Yuhi's room. She knocked on the door but no one answered. She tried opening the door and it was opened. She approached Yuhi's bed. "Yuhi…wake up you lazy mongrel." She pulled off the covers and saw that Yuhi wasn't there. "Not here…must be crapping." She walked in the bathroom but didn't found him there either. She then checked Aya's room and saw a figure under the covers that looked like pillows…long pillows. Suzumi walked slowly toward it. She pulled off the cover slowly to see who or what is under it. To her surprised she saw Aya on top of Yuhi sleeping…but both naked. She noticed that both of them were holding hands. She smiled. "You got your girl Yuhi…I knew you could do it…but I didn't think you'll be together that quickly…" Suzumi walked downstairs. She saw that Aki was sitting eating breakfast already.
"I made food…I got hungry…" Aki said.
"You can cook…" Suzumi said.
"Uh huh…Yuhi isn't the only guy here that can cook. I just didn't seem like cooking since I love Yuhi's food…"Aki said grinning.
"Well that's pretty handy…Sorry but I couldn't get Yuhi to wake up…He is still sick but he's getting better…" Suzumi said.
"That's good news…" Aki said taking a bite out of his toasted bread with eggs.
"Yuhi…you awake?" Aya whispered.
"Uh huh…" Yuhi said.
"You up for a second date with me?" Aya asked while playing with Yuhi's hair.
"Let's check…" Yuhi said. Aya put her hand on Yuhi's forehead and Yuhi put his hand on Aya's too.
"You're still hot…" They both said at once. They both laughed.
"I guess we'll have to get a rain check for that second date…" Yuhi said.
"Yeah…guess you're right…" Aya said. Aya got up off of Yuhi. "Why don't we get dress and go to our own beds. I mean the last thing we'd want is Aki and Suzumi to barge in here and see the both of us bare."
"Or even worser…having Mrs. Q coming in here…" Yuhi said. Aya giggled. They both got dressed. Yuhi took of the separator and both went on the same bed. There was a knock on the door. "Come in…" Suzumi opened the door. She was carrying two bowl of soup and two cups of hot tea.
"Here's your breakfast you sick love birds…" Suzumi grinned. Aya and Yuhi turned red. She went over to them and took each of their temperature. "Hmmm…seem to be the same temperatures…what'd you do? Have sex and shared the same sickness?" Aya and Yuhi both laughed weakly.
"Heh…No way…" They both said at once.
"Well eat up you two…" Suzumi said. She opened the door. "Both of you are an odd couple…same sickness and temperature…it has to be sex…" She chuckled.
"She knows…" They both said to each other.
Okay there you go my Ayashi No Ceres readers…Could this be the end of this fic? Do you think Aya and Yuhi are made to be happy together? Well I don't know…whatever…is it the end though? Or has it just begun? Thank you my reviewers! I appreciate it. HAHAHAHA!Kouga's One and Only-
