New heart

*looks alarmed*
Is there something wrong, Hajime? *comes over and puts her ear to his chest, quiet, listening* *looks up* It seems to be beating fine… *takes his wrist* As is your pulse… so the ailment to your heart must not be physical. *looks more worried*
Maa… you should rest then… *smiles and pulls him over to a futon* Until this “Wizard” arrives I’ll provide you with round-the-clock care. *sits down beside him and brings out a tray of fresh kake soba* My cooking may not fix your heart but at least this -excellent- soba will help fortify you?

*sits on the futon*
*takes the soba silently*
It said thursday. I’ll meet with a shrink then.
*goes back to eating*
Why did you come here anyway? By the way I had the ahou change this post to private.

Because I wanted to come. *smiles slightly* And I was worried about you… your heart. Perhaps this isn’t the time for my fussing.
You wanted me to come… and I wanted to be there for you. That’s what bothered you the other night and you dismissed as non-important, right? But it is – anything that bothers you so much isn’t something to be shoved aside. We’ve been through too much… I hope you know how much I do love you, even if I mess up at times. And yes, I remember why… and how. The first time I said it, felt it… the first time I had to -fight- for it, and in that cold spring morning… I saw how much you loved me as well.
*quietly* I know you’re hurting. I am too… but I saw you out here in public, your “quiz” saying something that seemed too apt for the moment… *scoots over to lean against his chest, ear over his heart, as she did earlier* Don’t let the Wizard take your heart. This one is still very strong, vital and true… I promise I’ll take care of it. I can’t promise that I’ll never hurt you, I’m not perfect, no matter how much I try. But I’ll give you all the care that’s in me to see that this heart goes on for a long time.

*places the bowl down and takes a drink*
*mutters* You talk too much… *turns around and just decides to kiss her fully for a -while- before going back and lighting a cigarette*
I apologize I did not take you to dance. There were too many -hindrances-.
*blows a smoke to the side and looks up*

*doesn’t answer back before he kisses her, answering back, engaging in it deeply she savors him and shares what all of those words can’t convey*
But you’re still there so I’ll keep hope that you will…
*smiles suddenly tired, thinking how she’s not slept well at all lately, and pulls them down to lay back on the futon*
I need to rest here with you for a while. *curls up beside him*
*kisses his cheek before nestling her head on his shoulder* Good night, my beloved.
