HE'S MINE

037

"Nothi--nothing." I hesitated to look into his eyes, he has a strong impact on me. Whenever I was around him I got goosebumps, which I never got near Sanzu and why was I comparing them again? Why does Sanzu have to appear in my mind every time I think of Mikey?

"Then why were you standing behind me?" He smirked, patting on the couch, offering me a seat.

"Come sit," he smiled, raising his brow. I obeyed him and sat by his side, I can see Shinichiro peeping at us through the kitchen. I was looking straight at the TV, which wasn't even playing, anything to avoid looking in his eyes.

"You are always this shy or is it just me who makes you blush?" he pulled himself closer to me, but the movement was slight so that I don't think I would have noticed if his body hadn't touched mine. We were sitting without bodies touched, slightly.

"I don't know," I mumbled in my mouth, playing with my bracelet. What should I focus on? His husky voice or his hot body brushed against mine slightly?

"You look cute when you blush." he brought his face near my ear and whispered huskily. The loud gasp made me feel even more uncomfortable, why did I gasp? Ugh!

I hugged myself as he didn't bother moving his face away. His breaths were too clear for my fragile heart, I could hear him breathing all day and not get bored. My skin was covered in goosebumps and I bet he had noticed them too.

"I wish we could go together to the party," he uttered in my ear, and that's when I knew it was a time to tell him that I was ready to go with him, not only to this party to anywhere he wanted to take me.

"Yes!" Did I say aloud really Y/n? A yes, did he ask you if you would marry him? why yes? it was that stupid moment that I yelled that single word. He laughed and lay back on the couch, laughing loudly at my reaction.

"I meant, yeah, we can go." I was so damn confused that now I think about it, I feel ashamed of myself.

"Oh, you are cute." he regained his posture and commented. "Do you even know what it means to go to a party together? It means we are a couple." he finished and I veered my neck to stare at his face. So when I asked Sanzu to go with me, was he ready to go as a couple with me? But why would he say yes? Maybe Sanzu didn't know what it meant. Thankfully, we didn't go together or else it would have been so bad to lead him on.

"I---, Do you know that?" I bit my lips once it escaped my lips he claims to know this then it means he was asking me out, OH MY GOD? was he?

"I know, but maybe I asked you a little wrong." he pulled his face closer and stared at my lips, making me gulp at his glance, he pulled back and got up, sitting on his one knee, my heart was racing in my chest, my eyes coming out of their sockets in shock, "So I want to know Y/n, will you be my girlfriend?" he pulled his hands towards me and raised his brow. This has to be a dream, Mikey proposed to me? it had always been like a dream that my heart knew would never come true, but it came true.

AND, I died.

I mean, I was bluntly staring at his face with my jaw dropped down shamelessly, my eyes not remembering that they needed to blink and my heart, oh my heart! My poor, poor heart had no idea what just happened.

"Y/n?" he voiced again to bring me back from the zone I was in, I shook myself out of the thoughts and stared at his hand. Was it a joke? Mikey, Sank Manjiro asked me out? How, when, why?

"Y/n?" he voiced, but this time louder. And just when I was back on the earth, ready to answer him, the door burst open and Mr. Grandpa entered the house grumpily. Mikey quickly sat straight, looking here and there to avoid Mr. Grandpa's attention, who was mumbling something in his mouth.

"What happened, Grandpa?" Mikey questioned, but I was still in a state of shock.

"Y/n!" I felt someone's finger tapping on my shoulder to bring me back to life. I turned around my neck to see Shinichiro eyeing me to go back to my room. He saw everything happening and that's why he looked this happy. I nodded and got up, slowly making my way towards my room, my mind completely frozen, and my eyes down on my steps.

"This office work!" Mr. Grandpa, who probably had a bad day missed what was going on under his nose and I am glad that happened, I would have died if he had seen Mikey like that, but Mikey, why did he say that to me, was he serious?

Locking the door after me, I jumped in my bed and stayed there lifelessly, has my fate finally befriended me? My only desire of being with Mikey was finally going to happen, and I was not going to let it be ruined by anyone or anything.

I hugged my pillow and giggled while my cheeks turned red due to blushing. The instant thought of seeing Mikey again at dinner crossed my mind, he will be seeking the answer. Of course, my answer is going to be yes, but how will I utter this to him?

I closed my eyes and blushed even more. My life is finally going to be better, I was happy. Dancing with Mikey in my imagination, I forgot about everyone else in the world, but my phone beeped to remind me that there were other people in the world besides him, the sad reality.

Yuzuha: Y/n?

I stared at her name and bit my lip, will Mikey be okay if I stayed friends with Yuzuha?

Yuzuha: Girl listen!

I ignored her texts that's when she started ringing my phone and I have no option, but to answer her.

Me: Oh hey!

I didn't want to face time or something because it is easy to fake a smile on text.

Yuzuha: Did you talk to Sanzu?

I rolled my eyes in annoyance at her constant pushing for Sanzu. I never even had his number, we would always talk through FB.

Me: No, why?

Yuzuha: I thought you would try to sort things out with him. Plus, I think your conversation ended on a bad note.

Me: Sort things out? why, did something happen?

Yuzuha: Don't act like you don't know that you hurt him.

Me: Please tell me how, because he was the one who bailed on me for his Brother.

Yuzuha: And you believe that?

Me: I don't have a habit of doubting everyone.

I noticed the change in my tone, there was a bitter harshness in my words that she might have recognized too. Luckily, she could only read my texts, my tone was even more bitter than that.

Yuzuha: Anyway, so I think we both should go together to this party.

I frowned at her text, so she was now trying to make me look bad. She might have an idea that I was going with Mikey so now she wanted me to say no to her so that she can play the victim.
