Chapter 7


For what seemed like many many hours, Akito and Sara just sat and stared at each other…or in Sara's case, laid and stared.

For once in a long time, Akito was at a loss for words. He had that "deer in the headlights" expression. He wasn't totally sure as to what he was supposed to do in a situation like this…and knowing that bothered him.

Sara on the other hand felt the need to say something…except that she couldn't say anything, so she sat up and tilted her head to the side instead. Did she not know what Akito had done just before she opened her eyes?

Akito cleared his throat, "Did you…just now wake up…?"

Blushing, Sara lowered her gaze to her hands that were resting in her lap and slowly shook her head causing Akito to feel a warm sensation to cross his cheeks. That caused a small giggle to escape Sara's lips.

Another odd moment of silence rose. Then, Akito, being one to have random outbursts of emotion, had an outburst of the emotion that was flowing through his entire body…

In one swift movement, Akito leaned over to Sara, his hand cupping the side of her cheek, lips softly brushing against Sara's. They stayed like that for a long time…well, no it was only two minutes.

When they both pulled away from the kiss, both were red in the face, their breathing had quickened a bit.

Akito's eyes seemed different in someway. They were…softer…no trace of any anger or madness. Sara smiled, noticing the change in Akito's gaze. She cautiously crawled over to Akito, onto his futon and nuzzled Akito with her face on his collarbone. Akito reacted by slowly placing his arms around Sara's small form, softly resting his chin on top of her head.

"…Are you…okay with this?"

Sara smiled and nuzzled more, enjoying the music that was his heart beating in his chest. Akito took that as a good sign, and softly kissed the top of Sara's head, resting his cheek on her head in the spot that he had just kissed.

In absolute truth, before now, he never had an outsider this close to him. In a way, it scared him. But the emotion that was flowing through most of his person was bliss, happiness and something else that he couldn't quite figure out…

Realization hit Akito like a frying pan to the face, '…this can't be…love…can it?'
