Mercy Kiss
*Yuki*
I looked forward to a shower
every morning. I enjoy the warm water
running on my naked body. But this morning, I didn’t feel the water. I
was
completely numb. Maybe my mind was disconnected from my body. But I
knew where
it was.
My mind was on Shizuma.
Lovely Shizuma. I loved him. I needed him. I wanted to help him. But he
wouldn’t let me. I wanted to know naze.
“He
keeps pushing me away!”
I thought as I walked to school. “But not this
time!”
I decided to seize
him and hold him tight. Whether Shizu wanted it or not!
*Shizuma*
I sat on the school roof.
Haruka’s death still haunts me. I can’t let Yuki die at my hands like
Haruka
did. I just can’t! Then, I heard footsteps. I looked and saw Yuki
standing in
the doorway.
His eyes were wide with
tears. I was filled with sympathy but didn’t show it. “Nani do you
want?” I
snapped. “Shizuma.” he said. I turned my head away. “I’m worried about
you…” he
began. I turned to him. “Naze?” I hissed. “I love you.” he said. I
snorted.
“Save that garbage for some sap!” I replied. “But…” Yuki said. “Shut
up!” I
yelled. Then I teleported away.
*Yuki*
I had failed. My love had
rejected me. Or did he? Nai! I haven’t failed! I just had to keep
trying! And
try I shall! I won’t give up! I was going to have my Shizuma in my
arms. Even
if it killed me!
The bell
rang. I became
startled. Classes were starting. I’d be late if I didn’t hurry. So I
fled down
the stairs to my English III class.
*Shizuma*
Sorry Yuki. I love you but I
have to do this. I just can’t have you dead by me. I love you too much
for
that. I can’t deny that. I love you my darling!
*Yuki*
For days, Shizuma kept
avoiding me like the plague. My mission was going nowhere. I tried
talking,
force, and reason. Nothing worked. Nani could I do?
Then in October, an idea came
to me. I enjoyed this idea a whole lot. I was sure it wouldn’t fail! I
had to
try it!
I walked
to school as usual.
For once, I saw Shizu standing on the sidewalk. He had his back to me. “Here
goes!”
I thought. “Shizuma!” I called out. No answer, as usual. “I don’t
care how times you drive me away,” I went on. “I will keep coming to
you!
Because I love you!” Still no answer. In fact, he started to leave. I
had no
choice but to pull the final step.
So I rushed to him, grabbed
him, turned him to me, and kissed my love on the lips hard.
*Shizuma*
At that time, I was startled.
At first, I wanted to get away. But then, I surrendered and gave into
his kiss.
I kissed him back. Then, I realized something. This human wasn’t going
to let
me go. And I had to accept that, whether I wanted to or not. Aw, hell!
I might
as well enjoy it! After all, I do love him and he feels the same for
me. So
what harm can it be?
