The Story Of Us- 5

As the day goes on, I find myself constantly staring at the ring on my left hand. It’s just so beautiful! It must have cost Kukai a fortune! After everyone’s left, we just sit on the couch, silently. I’m staring at my hand, and Kukai must be able to read my mind.

“My brothers and parents helped me,” he says softly.

I grin up at him, kissing him on the cheek gently. Suddenly, the front door flies open and a black-haired girl stomps in.

“SOUMA KUKAI!” she screams, slamming our front door closed behind her.

I look to Kukai, raising an eyebrow. The girl runs to him, glaring at me. She throws me off of my own couch in my own house and begins squealing and hugging on Kukai.

“Uh, Kukai? What the hell?” I ask expectantly, planting my hands on my hips.

“DAMN IT- NYOKO. GET OFF ME!” Kukai yelled, gently pushing the demanding girl off.

“Who the hell is she?” I question, glaring at her.

Kukai sighs, rolling his eyes. “A rabid fangirl from my school. She thinks we’re soul mates.”

I scoff, glaring even more at the girl. She sits up, straightening her skirt.

“Well we are!” she states, frowning.

“No, we’re not!” Kukai argues.

“What happened to the Souma-kun I love? You’d say I looked beautiful every day, and bring me a gourmet lunch,” she wallows, adding dramatics.

“Excuse me, missy. You just barged into MY house, threw me off MY couch and started hugging on MY boyfriend. He’s NOT your’s. He’s mine,” I say defiantly.

“I’ve known him longer!” she counters.

“I’ve known him for 6 years! Beat that, honey!” I yell, stomping my foot in aggravation.

“We have chemistry. You don’t!”
“Oh, really? Then why did he give me a ring for Christmas?”

I smirk and thrust my hand out, watching her face as she examines the ring.

“He’s just doing that to make you feel better!” Nyoko laughs smugly.

“I’m done. Get out of my house or I’m calling the cops.”
“Psh. You would.”

I pull out my phone and begin to dial the numbers. “Okay, okay! Don’t call them! I’ll go!”

She grabs her stuff and runs towards the door.

“Goodbye, my love!” Nyoko shouts, blowing a kiss in Kukai’s direction before exiting my house.

I fall back on the couch, where Kukai wraps his strong arms around me.

“I’m so sorry about that. She thinks I’m the sexiest guy ever and that she’s going to have my children.”
“Hey, the only person to have your children is me.”

We both laugh and smile at each other, grinning.

“You’ll make you most beautiful babies,” Kukai whispers.

“No, we will,” I murmur, leaning into my boyfriend.

The next day rolls around, and just like I promised, I’m all Kukai’s. He said he had a surprise for me and to dress warmly so I race to my room, flinging clothes on.

I run down the stairs, sporting warm skinny jeans, comfy boots, a long-sleeved blue shirt, my black coat, my green knitted hat, and my finger-less gloves.

“Ready to go?” Kukai ponders, grabbing my hand.

“Let’s go!” I reply, grinning. We leave my house, and go down to the park, where they’ve set up beautiful Christmas lights. Kukai and I walk through, admiring the blinking red, blue, and green lights.

My boyfriend squeezes my hand and I lean up, kissing him on the cheek. Before I can lean back down, Kukai turns and catches my face in his hand, pressing his warm lips onto mine. I just about melt, lingering there, not even caring if people see us.

Because I’m just about the happiest girl in the world right now.
