RE: "Bright Eyes"
Ch. 2
Ai (Love)
?Yuiko, please wear this kimono the festival will begin soon and you are still not yet ready?, a tall man named Sebastian walked into my room and neatly placed a colorful purple like dress across my bed. I looked at him with amazement, he was so patient with me even after everything my family had put him through, he truly was my first love??
?Sebi, how come your so nice to me??, Sebi was something I called him, his name was to long for me to actually pronounce and I often found myself stumbling to say it right in front of him, so instead I called him Sebi.
?hmm, I think we know why, my dear Yui?, Sebi placed his warm hand on the top of head and kissed my cheek. ?You really are the only thing that keeps my mind off of my own daughter?, Sebi smiles and walks out of the room. It always seemed strange to me that he had such a peculiar interest in me. That?s when father actually told me that Sebi was taken from his family by force, and had to leave behind his wife and daughter who later on were reported dead. Father said they died by a mad man who was running around there town blowing things up, and it just so happened that Sebi?s father was the house he started with. The festival fireworks had started so I quickly through off my clothes and began dressing for the night.
--------------------------
?Yuiko! Well don?t you look all grown up?, there I found the smiling Sebi standing against a tale Cherry Blossom tree that I always seemed to admire during the days of summer. I quickly run over to Sebi and wrap my small arms around him and nestle myself into his chest.
?Sebi, do you love me??, the words slipped without me even realizing, I could feel Sebi?s body grow tense and then calm.
?You know I love you Yui?, I could feel the his large hand patting the top of my head, and I was afraid he was avoiding the meaning to the question.
?No! Sebi like Love Love?, I turned to look at him with my eye?s my horrid eyes. Sebi slowly kneels down and takes a bag he had been hiding behind his back and places it before me.
?For you my Love?, he lightly smiles revealing his white teeth that dazzle me every time, his dark hair falls over one eye and reveals one yellow eye. His face was no older than 27, and still he looked like a young teen boy. I quickly turn my gaze from god?s perfection and open the brown bag, there inside I find
?Baseball Cap! Sebi thank you I love it!?, I wrap my arms around his neck and before I know it, my lips and his are touching, but somehow it?s different. This isn?t the type of touching you exchange with parents or family members, but to the one you truly love.
?Thank you Yui?, Sebi whispers before pulling away and taking my hand his, ?Now it?s time to join the festival?, his smile grows ten times wider.
The walk to the festival seem rather short, and I didn?t want it to end. As a matter of fact I wish we didn?t have to go, just spending time with Sebi would make me happy. Fireworks blasted into the sky like fireflies learning how to shine, it was both breath taking and amazing, but something was missing, something special. People left and right turned to me and Sebi as if they had never seen us together before and that?s when things changed?..
?Sebi, behind you!?, a random women screamed I quickly turned to see Sebi grab the wrist of a women holding a large dagger, this women who I never seen before had long dark hair and seemed about the same age as Sebi.
?Ai!?! Your alive?, I could see Tear?s forming in Sebi?s eyes.
At that moment I knew who Luna was without knowing her face, or name. I knew who she was, because of the way Sebi called her name, the way his hands tightened around his wrists and he said her name, she was his wife??.
