-Kei's POV
I don't know how long I have had this crush on Rin, maybe it was because of seeing her much lately, but maybe it started when Ryutaro kept talking about her and made me curious of her. Since then, I've always watched her moves. Plus, this tutorial time too. The way she behaves, attracts me. When she explains things, her big eyes would fill of excitement, it seems like she enjoys it so much, and this makes me alive. She's not the same like any other girls around, she's different and unique. She's Rin!!
I always can't wait to meet her everyday. I understand how's Ryu feeling now. He's so damn lucky.
Sadly, I'm just a friend to her. Sadly, Ryu met her first. Sadly, I'm late.
This growling feeling inside makes my feet always come near her and my conscious is gone when she's around. I've tried approaching her, have tried to show that I care to her more than just a friend does, but it's Ryu's hand that she's holding, and Ryu's name that she's calling, not mine. Not mine.
We're supposed to have a tutorial session again today. It's the last session, and I'm sorrowful because of it. There's a big hollow on my chest, desperately to be filled, and I know she could cover it all, but she won't, and that hollow will remain empty, just like before.
What should I do?
She's waiting at the library, sitting at her favourite spot, while I'm standing here like an idiot, watching her.
Ahh, I should go inside, and not let her wait any longer.
"Hi, Lil' Sensei... Sorry for delay..."
"Yeah.. Yeah.. I'm used to it. What is it now? Coach meeting, fans circle or unopened locker??"
"Sorry.. Sorry... I got caught into a very important part of my life, and had to observe it for a while."
If you just knew, that I was watching you... I always did, those were just my reasons to have some times alone, watching you and cursing myself for not meeting you first, hoping that you could hear my despair heart.
"Okay then, let's start."
We start the tutorial, the last one.
////////////////
As what has done before, I always walked her home everytime I was late and if there's no Ryu around, and so does today. I'm walking her home. I don't want this day to be ended early, so I twist my brain hard to find a reason just to take her out.
"Rin... You've done a great thing for me… Ehmm, now it's my turn to pay it back to you. At least to show that I really appreciate your help, and I'm grateful because of it."
"Ahh, nevermind, Kei, I also got a benefit from it."
"No.. I have to."
Yes, I have to, if I don't want to end this day early.
"Really, it's not a big deal... It's been a pleasure helping you. Besides, Ryu has probably been waiting for me at home."
"Ohh, don't worry, I've told Ryu about this, I'm gonna take you somewhere after studying, and he had agreed." I lied.
"Really?? So he's not waiting at my home now? Why hasn't he told me?" She's taking her phone of her bag, what am I supposed to do??!
"Geezz.. My phone is off. I forgot to charge it last night!!"
Thankgoodness....
"Don't worry, everything is under control.. If Ryu is mad, I'll be responsible.."
"Are you sure that Ryu has known about this?"
"Yes, i'm sure."
"Alright then, where are we going?"
"Just follow me, i'm taking you to a special place."
"Let's go then"
I did it!! Forgive me, Ryu... I hope you understand.
//////////////
"Wow!! This place is awesome!!" Rin screamed with enthusiasm.
I take her to my family's villa. It's still at the city, actually, but we only come here on certain occasion.
I like this place, it's quiet and comfortable. The building itself isn't too big, but the garden and the view that I like the most. Whenever I feel sad or down, this place always able to comfort me.
"Is this your family villa?" Rin's voice woke me up.
"Yes, it is. Do you like it?"
"Absolutely! It's gorgeous!!"
Yes, just like you, I whispered in my heart.
//////////////////
We spend the entire evening here. It has been more than 4 hours since we arrived, and I still have no guts to tell her my feeling.
"Rin, do you like Ryu so much?"
"Why are you asking?"
"Just wondering... You don't need to answer if you don't want to, it's too private I know."
"It's okay… Since you're the one who asked, I don't have to hide this. Ehm.. I don't."
"What?! What do you mean?" Suddenly, I sense a little hope for me.
"I don't like Ryu.. I love him." She lowered her voice when she said the second phrase.
"Ohh... I thought so." I'm already lose.
"So, there's no chance for anybody to enter your heart anymore then?" Stupid question! I yelled to myself.
"Ehm.. Everyone can enter my heart, but not the special place I keep for him."
Off course, silly me for asking that and made me lose even more. There's no chance at all for me. She belongs to Ryu. Not me, and will never be me.
I take my phone, and text on Ryu.
Hi there, pal.. I know you're worried, but Rin's with me. Come and pick her up at the villa, kay.. Sorry for the trouble. You're so lucky to have her.
He should know this place since JUMP usually have BBQ party here.
"Kei, I'm tired, can we go home now?"
"Wait a moment longer, please... I need it."
I need to see you longer, to hurt me even harder, and accept my losing. Why can't I be the boy who fills the special place in your heart?
"Very well then... A little moment only, kay.."
"Okay!" I smiled as I said that. But it's a bitter smile of my broken heart.
/////////////
Ryu came with an upset face. I know he's ready to kill me, and I don't mind if he does because I'm already breathless.
"Rin... Are you okay?" He asked her with a worry tone.
"Sure… How do you know that I'm here?"
"Kei texted me…" He glanced with an angry look at me.
Ryu takes off his scarf and put it on Rin's neck. She smiles at him. Her eyes speak a thousand love phrases at him, as her hand is holding his.
"Let's go home..." Ryu said.
"I'd love to... Kei, are you coming with us?"
"No, I need to be here much longer." I answered.
"Well then, we go now. See you at school." She waved on me. A goodbye one.
"Sure... See you at school. Thanks for accompanying me... " I said.
They walk away from me, holding hands and smiling to each other.
My phone is beeping, there's a text from Ryu.
Never do this again!!
I'm lover, not a fighter. But I will surely fight for the one that I love!
I understand how he felt. I hope he would understand me too.
She's his… And will always be his.
