I have announced a few days ago that I am unable to continue with this Fanfic since it has been over 2 years…(and that I have been a horrible person to not keep my work consistent). But it was unfair since there is not much Yuki-Onna/ Tsurara and Rikuo interactions.
So here is the final chapter (for now), be warned that there will probably be disconnected ideas and incoherent plot in this chapter… (It has been 2 years and, therefore, the main plot for this story is a bit fuzzy).
This chapter would be very rushed and very painful to read...but nonetheless I hope you guys can cope with it.
WARNING: My characters are going to be very OOC so prepare yourself :P.
Thank you for following me this far. When the time comes, I will probably write yet another fanfic.
Enjoy!
Chapter 10: Finally?
I stared at the screen, it was a picture of Rikuo's friend and I during the time when we were riding the roller coaster.
. .
My wide eyes that looked like tears were about to flood out, mouth ajar (due to the screaming) seemed like I was going to swallow the whole world population, did I forget to mention that I resembled a goldfish that is just casually wearing a wig and scarf? The fact that everyone else was expressing themselves with pure excitement in the ride and me appearing like I am going through an apocalypse does not make anything better.
Rikuo face was red as he was trying soo hard not to burst into laughter.
"HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Ok. Maybe he wasn't trying to hold in his laughter. Everyone joined in with him whilst I stood there not knowing whether to freeze all of them or to let it go. (Author's note: Sorry I just had to put it there).
I suggest we freeze them.
I jumped from the sudden voice within me, is that my other half?
Yes, you fool.
Wow, thanks.
No problem.
"Do you want to purchase this picture?" the assistant asked.
Immediately I replied, "It would be better if we didn-"
"That would be wonderful," Rikuo intercepted me.
Glaring at him as he took the printed version of the 'amazing' photo. Our eyes met and he gave me a cheeky smile…and for a second, just a second my heart melted a bit.
After that 'eventful' ride, we all tried out all the different excursion and before we knew it, the sun was setting.
"Guys looks like I have to go," Natsumi said reluctantly as she glanced at her phone.
She looked at Tsurara, "We should hangout more often next time Tsurara chan!"
"Definitely Natsumi Chan!" I agreed.
Just as she was about to leave, Saori glanced at both Rikuo and me there was a glint in her eyes.
"Wait! Natsumi, I am coming too!" She grabbed both Kiyotsugu and Jiro by the neck, "so are these two idiots!"
Kiyotsugu, confused, "Wait what? We haven't gone to the hua-OWWW!"
He glared at Saori since she 'accidentally' kicked him.
Kana gave Saori an understanding look, "I guess I have to go as well," she nodded her head. But I could see the pain that flickered across her face for a second but was instantly replaced with a serene one.
And I felt bad.
Never have I once considered the feelings Kana had...All this time, I was being selfish and keeping Rikuo to myself.
Whilst everyone was saying their goodbyes I stood at the corner feeling guilty.
"Oikawa-san," Kana said gently walking towards me, she took my hands and whispered softly so no one could hear but us, "Don't feel bad, he chose you. I promise you, I've tried, but his only line of vision was you. And now I must learn to give up, you should go to him and believe in yourself."
Eye welling up with tears, I hugged her...no words exchanged, just the comfortable silence which reassured us, deepening our friendship…
You (readers) would expect us to go on a Ferris wheel confess our mutual feelings to one another...oh how wrong you have been. Right after the friends left… we felt like there wasn't much to do and walked home. I guess he knew something wasn't right when I was sniffling a bit, he just kept quiet.
Changing back into my yukata, I walked out towards the garden to see the sakura trees and to reflect, the moon shone luminously and there stood a young man with dark, blood red eyes which glistened with intelligence. Taller built and his hair longer than it was.
"Yuki Onna" the low voice echoed, "are you feeling better now?"
Bowed down, "Yes Wakagashira," in a flash he was in front of me, he touched my chin with his slender fingers lifting my face making me look only at him.
"Don't lie," he uttered.
My cheeks were heated, heart thumping so fast. I mean what do I do when there is a handsome young man with the best eyes even in 'day' and 'night' form, along with a great personality standing in front of me?
You kiss him.
What?! Oh my goodness, I would lov- Nonononono! That is impossible...
Can you stop being so in denial? Look, you both like each other I'm tired of this.
Wait what did you just say? Our feelings are...mutual?!
No comment.
"Fine! I am lying! In fact I'm going to tell you right now Rikuo or Wakagashira or whatever, I am not feeling any better because I have made no progress at all in setting my feelings clear to since you are just to dense to notice, whether you are in 'day' or' night' form so I am going to say this now, I LIKE YOU !" I fumed out loud.
OH MY GOODNESS, DID I JUST SAY THAT?!
Yes.
Nurarihyon (Rikuo's night form) narrow eyes widened in surprise, he took a step forward and before I knew it, his lips were against mine…
And time slowed down, it was soft and gentle as if he was treating me like a delicate flower. It brushed softly across my lips.
.Amazing.
He leaned his forehead to mine and murmured, "Thank goodness," he hugged me and put his head on top of mine, "and I thought you had a 'thing' for Gozumaru."
Not being able to speak as my head is on Nurarihyon's chest, I shook my head vigorously. And I could hear his deep chuckle. Suddenly he lifted me up so that I would be looking down at him, my hand automatically rested on his shoulders.
With a mischievous smirk, "What did you say just now?"
Blushing furiously once more I muttered, "I like you…"
"What? I can't hear you~" he sang.
What in the world does he mean 'you can't hear me'?! He is less than 10 centimeters away from me and he says that? Hah! Lame excuse.
Breathing in, "I said, I like you." Looking straight into his eyes.
It was strange...as I observed at the way his pale cheeks are slowly getting pink. But his eyes sparkled with happiness, "Me too."
And it was my turn to kiss.
* END *
I hope you all managed to read this chapter without rolling your eyes and shaking your head at my vocabulary and grammar mistakes. If you did. I am sorry :'(.
I have to admit it was pretty rushed, but I felt like I had to make it clear that Yuki Onna and Rikuo are meant to be together and that I seriously ship them.
When I found out that they have feelings for one another in the actually series 'Nurarihyon No Mago' I was up in cloud nine.
So here is my final chapter for this fanfic, once again….thank you for following me this far!
