Eternal Melody

Yuhi understood that Sumire was the type of person who liked to tease people. But he always believed that he would be fine no matter what she threw at him. It seems like he has underestimated her though. "You spent the past two days with Hino, did that not bother Soujiro?"

Sumire sighed. "Mm, it didn't bother him."

That man must have excellent self control. Yuhi has to admit that he is impressed. Not only can Soujiro control himself from getting jealous.But Soujiro also controls his desires towards Sumire. Yuhi knew from the very start that man liked Sumire, otherwise he would not have provoked him on national TV.

An arranged marriage since birth huh? It is not uncommon for the two to fall for one another. For awhile Yuhi speculated that Sumire liked Soujiro. But he could not say so for sure, since he has not seen how the two interacted with one another.

"It bothered me."

At that comment Sumire laughed. She covered her mouth shyly with her hands. "Uhh, it seems like I have underestimated you a bit Yuhi-san."

"That is my line." He turned to her and caressed her cheeks. "You look sick."

"Aha."

"It isn't funny." Yuhi frowned. "Why are you wearing such little clothing?"

"Uh, because I only wanted to go to the market."

Is that so? Yuhi only half paid attention to her words. He did not understand why, but today she seemed prettier than usual. Would it be okay for him to look at her for awhile? Would she find it weird if all he did was look at her?

"Why are you blushing?"

"Because this is embarrassing. If your going to kiss me, please do so already."

Kiss? He wasnt planning to. Beside she is sick, he obviously wont do anything now that he knows that. "I only want to look at you."

"Look at me?"

Sumire seemed very puzzled at his words. Yuhi did not understand it either so he could not explain it to her. Maybe he should just let her go. But he wants to keep loo- his thoughts broke off when he felt Sumire's lips on his.

Yuhi immediately froze in shock at her actions.

What on earth is she doing?

No he knows what she is doing. But shouldnt she stop before he ends up liking it? What will she do when he likes it?

…...

A few hours later - 7:00pm -

When he saw the lights from the outside, Yuhi already knew who it was. Akatsuki too has been sneaking off somewhere, it can't be that woman.

He rushed up the steps and unlocked the door. The girls shoes from earlier remained at the front. So she stayed? Yuhi looked around and noticed that the hallway was sparkling clean. The traces of the dirt that were on the walls previously were gone now.

Yuhi put his bag down and took his shoes off. He walked across the hall and took heavy strides until he arrived in front of the kitchen door.

Sumire had left it open so he spotted brunette hair from the distance. So Soujiro really was right, ' She told me she has practice. But that's her excuse to see you isn't it?'

He took a deep breath before he made his way over.

"--hey Sumire. "

No response. She must be deep in thought about something again. Guess there is no choice. He slid up closer to her and spoke directly at her ear. "Heyyy Sumire, answer me! What are you doing spacing out like that? Let's eat. "

Clearly this snapped the brunette's thoughts, since her face immediately turned a cherry red colour seeing how close he was.

"Ahh, um. .Yuhi, welcome home. "

Yuhi blinked when he saw how nervous she was. Huh? Why is she red? What happened to her teasing and playful attitude from earlier?

"Hmm, the contents of the pot is spilling is it alright?"

"Ahh yes." Sumire reached over and quickly fixed it. "You came back earlier than, I expected Yuhi. "

"Yeah, since I left pretty early this morning. I thought I would come back earlier. Brr it's cold. What did you make?"

"Meat and potato stew. "

"Hmm, this meat and potato stew. Isn't the colour a little too light? I like strong flavours. "

"It's not light. I've checked. Taste it Yuhi. " Sumire brought out some chopsticks and took some meat and potato out of the pot. "Come on Yuhi, go ahh."

Hey hey, isn't she embarrassed? One moment she is all red and flustered, then the next she does bold things like this. Well either way, Yuhi bends down to eat. A delicious sensation entered the tip of his tongue. "Mmm."

"How is it? I adjusted the flavour to suit your taste buds. "

"To impress me?" Yuhi teased. It was a joke of course. Why would she do something like that for his sake?

At that comment the brunette turned around to face him. "There is no --- " their gaze met and her cheeks coloured. "An--yway, I am very confident in my cooking today. So if you're ready to eat I'll start grilling the fish."

Yuhi cuts her sentence short as he reached over and kissed a strand of her hair.

"Yuhi...."

Oh, her tone changed. Yuhi gently cups her cheek and kissed her lips softly, only to have her cling on to him. "Shall we sit down? On the couch at least? "

The brunette nodded slowly and he easily carried her in his arms, as he reached over and switched the frying pan of. He tipped the contents into the other bowl and covered it with a lid.

He exited the kitchen with the girl in his arms and headed to the living room She seems a bit lighter than before, did she lose some wait? As Yuhi debated about it in his head, Sumire begins to undo his shirt collar. Well he guesses he can worry about it later.

His hands wrapped around her waist as he fondled her chest through her clothes. Cute sounds escaped her lips.

"Sumire, you're coming onto me strongly. Did you miss me?"

". .missed you, I missed you Yuhi. "

His gaze softened, geez she is so silly. "As much as I want us to do it right now. I'm quite worn out, and from the looks of it so are you. "

"S--sorry." Sumire said startled and she pulled away from him.

"Don't worry about it. I'm just glad you came back to me tonight. Soujiro doesn't mind?"

Sumire shook her head. "He doesn't mind. I told him I would practice overtime with the others, and he said that I should do my best. I feel bad lying, but I wanted to see you. So before I knew it I was lying."

So so very silly, this girl. He can't tell her that he knew she would be here, or the context of Soujiro's message either. Instead Yuhi plants kisses on her neck gently as he nibbles on her exposed chest. "Sumire. You're driving me crazy. "

"Aha." Sumire laughed softly. "I am?"

"Yeah, you are."

She is very silly but a content sigh escapes his lips when he caresses his hair, she is so beautiful. "Well, I'm sure it's fine even if you don't practice."

"Eh, what is that supposed to mean?"

"It simply means I want to monopolise you."

If she practices more and more and gets better. For sure she will reach her goal. But it wouldn't be because of him, it would be because she found what she was missing through that song. Although he has accepted that Mamoru will always remain special to her; he doesn't like the idea of her spreading her wings because of him. He doesn't like the idea of him interfering with the present Sumire.

The present Sumire has something only she can achieve.
