Dream Star 248 I Was Lonely, I Missed You

Haruka peered in the doorway indeed not to see any shoes in the doorway; it seemed like there is n.o.body else here. Is it really alright? No, it won't. He's a man and lately, whenever he sees her he pounces on her right away. Earlier, he knew he shouldn't have touched her, but he still did so. Despite this though, Haruka knew he still held back a great deal.

It's okay since she is bedridden, he probably won't be able to do anything this time.

After much debate, Haruka entered the house and made his way up the stairs. When he saw the lilac-colored plate on one door on the left, he knows right away that it's her room. Haruka knocked on the door, "Hey, Ari?" he called out.

Nothing.

Of course not, she's probably in bed. Rather why is he acting so polite about it? Considering how far their relations.h.i.+p has already gone, him getting embarra.s.sed now is strange. Haruka didn't say anymore and just entered the room.

When Haruka opened the door and entered, he discovered blue hair sprawled on to the ground. His eyes widened, and he went over immediately, "Hey are you --" his sentence fell short when he saw the girl covered in what he presumed to be ice packs. If she weren't sick, then he would tease her about this.

"Um...Haruka?"

His gaze turned soft when his name pa.s.sed her lips despite the girl's dazed state. He slowly removed the ice packs from her cheeks, Haruka knew she had them on for a long time considering how cold her cheek was.

Haruka scolded her, "Don't do this when you're sick," Haruka murmured. "The sudden change in temperature is bad for hanyou's."

"But I feel boiling," Lila argued. She suddenly s.h.i.+fted closer to him, "Haruka... is that you?" she drawled, as the girl examined him from head to toe with her gaze.

Haruka nodded.

"What are you doing here?" Lila questioned, "Or maybe I'm dreaming? Or maybe it's the fever that's making me feel weird."

Stupid girl, she admitted that she dreamed about him. Whether she does this on purpose, the circ.u.mstances don't change. The knowledge of her wanting him stirs something locked away in his heart. Haruka shook his head and gently planted a kiss on the girl' forehead.

"It's me," Haruka paused and apologized, "I won't do anything more than this.

Lila didn't respond to that but wrapped her arms around him.

"I was lonely Haruka."

Stupid…

"If you're lonely, just call me next time," Haruka said as he also wrapped his arms around the girl, he gently caressed Lila's blue locks. As he spoke softly, "It's all right now; you have me here."

It felt strange, Haruka knew how foreign those words that pa.s.sed his lips were. But it felt just right for him. Haruka felt the girl's body pressed against his, and he cursed internally. Usually, this wouldn't be a problem for him. He's used to his girlfriend's careless actions after all.

However, the girl's clothing. Damm.

He's the one with the problem here, what's with these clothes she's wearing? Although she's known for being a cool-s.e.xy type idol, he didn't think that her undergarments would be the same. The brunette wore a dark gray camisole with lighter gray lace material over the chest. Damm… If this continues, he will a.s.sault her in no time.

Her clothes didn't use to be like this, at least back when they first went out with each other. When did it change?

There really is something wrong with this situation.

"Your really here Haruka," Lila murmured.

Lila tightly hugged him. She's so close to him; it should be all right for him to take the initiative, shouldn't it? She's the one who's making him lose control like this.

He has to calm down. Since Lila confessed her feelings of 'I love you,' he has pounded on her constantly. For today he should at least give it a rest. Well, it's too late to say for today. Let's start with for now.

But she's so close…Gah. What's with these thoughts?

When the blue hair girl slumped in his arms, his eyes went wide. Well, he supposed it's all right; he lifted her on to her bed. The brunette reached down to hold his hand, "Haruka... It's the real Haruka," Lila repeated in a trance.

"Yeah, it's me."

"The real you… "

She really isn't well, is she? For the last few minutes, Lila has repeated the same sentence over and over. Her forehead is unusually warm, despite all those cooling packs she had on her forehead.

"Do you want to see Austin Kiryu's father? Eita was it? I think he's in town," Haruka said. He usually would evade even mentioning anything related to Austin Kiryu. But this situation called for it.

"It's okay, I'll ---" Lila trailed off and suddenly got up, "I don't look pretty."

Haruka rolled his eyes at that comment; she doesn't have to look pretty. Or rather for him, she's always beautiful. Realizing how cheesy that sounds, he mentally cursed himself. When it comes to her, he has no self-restraint it seemed like.

"But, I don't have any makeup on."

"It's too late. I've seen you without makeup before."

"Wah, so I'm ugly?"

Good grief this woman, how many times does he do it with her? He's seen everything about her body including her face with or without makeup.

"I've seen everything when we have s.e.x."

The girl turned red at his words but seemed to digest the information.

Lila laid back down, and for the next few seconds, she didn't stir awake. So he thought she had gone to sleep but suddenly murmured.

"Food.."

Haruka shook his head, "It doesn't matter. Go to sleep now. Close your eyes."

Lila nodded, and he watched as she closed them.

Haruka scanned the room. She does have a lot more belongings here. Did she stay here before coming to j.a.pan? No, when they first stepped out of the plane - the sight amazed her. Maybe Soichiro brought them over? He doesn't know.

Haruka noticed how close the girl got to him. A deep sigh pa.s.sed his lips; it's difficult to calm down when she is this close to him. Haruka wondered if Lila realized how vulnerable she is to his attacks right now? No matter what he does to her, she won't be able to push him away.

"You won't leave after I fall asleep right? "

"You really are troublesome.."

Lila apologized, "Sorry," she paused and smiled, "But I'm happy, for the last few days I've felt incredibly nervous. Today I didn't feel very well, so even if we did nothing I'd end up like this."

Haruka frowned at her explanation.

So that's how it is.

He thought it was unusual. Usually, when he drinks that much, Lila doesn't pa.s.s out.

"But, I wanted to spend more time with you."

So she did this deliberately? How scheming.

She's silly. Haruka reached over and patted her forehead, as he played with the girl's hair.

"I said that I'll be by your side alright?"

Her temperature… he should check it. But first, he pulled away and took something out of his bag.

"Have some pudding. Since it's easy to swallow, it should be all right. If you're not feeling hungry right now, I'll leave it in the fridge."

"I'll eat."

Haruka sighed in relief. It's a good thing she isn't acting stubborn about this. He undoes the wrapper for the plastic spoon.

"But only if you feed me."

This reminds him of a situation that happened a little while back before they dated.
