HE'S MINE

041

I was getting ready for the party, Mikey has bought me a dress of his liking. Though it was pretty revealing for my style, I didn't object since I didn't want to upset him. The weird part, we hadn't told Mr. Grandpa about our relationship, Shinichiro wanted us to keep it a secret till he persuades him.

"You look so beautiful, I'm so happy for you two." Shinichiro helped me getting ready, I could tell that he was very excited for us. Also, he helped us sneak out of the house as it was already 6 pm and the party was going to begin at 8 pm. I walked down the road in the direction of the car, Mikey standing with his car as he waited for me. I slowed down once I approached him, the shimmer in his eyes was the evidence that he liked what he was seeing.

"Someone looks beautiful tonight." He smirked, coming closer and leaning over my face, I felt my heart stopping for a moment as his warm breath fell on my skin, he gently kissed me on my cheek and opened the door for me. He had no idea that it was the first time that a guy has kissed me, I giggled and sat in the car. My skin was covered in goosebumps by his little touch.

The ride was peaceful, he never stopped looking at me through the mirror. I was in heaven I have dreamed about and every part of it was thrilling.

Yuzuha's POV

I had been out of the house on my own for hours, trying to keep myself busy as thoughts of Hanma going some girl other than me have been upsetting me. I ended up not going to the party after all. It was weird how things were changing every day like the weather. I helped the lady with the flower shop, then my neighbor with her house chores, and now I was walking on the road, alone and sad.

"Why?" I whispered in my mouth, holding back the tears of rejection. First, Mikey left me, then my childhood friend Y/n left my side, and now Hanma too? The problem has to be me, I must be doing something wrong. A warm tear rolled down my eyes and traveled down my cheek, I sniffled and cleaned the tears with the back of my hand and hugged myself tightly.

Not knowing where I was going, when I lifted my face, I found myself walking on the bridge. That wasn't the only thing that I noticed, but someone was standing on the bridge, looking at the sky.

I approached him and cleared my throat, he slowly turned his neck only halfway to acknowledge it was me.

"What are you doing here?" Sanzu asked, raising his brow, but not swirling his neck towards me.

"I was just walking to clear my head, why are you here?" I questioned, a part of me knew that Y/n has hurt him intensely, but since he was in denial or he didn't want to give anyone the satisfaction of hurting him, I pretended as if I didn't know.

"Just clearing my head." He smacked his lips and looked straight. His black leather jacket shone under the moonlight.

"Sanzu I don't understand one thing," I stated, watching his face blankly, though he was looking straight all this time.

"What is it?" He inquired, resting his elbows on the railing.

"When I told you that Mikey has asked Y/n to go with him, I wanted you to persuade her to go with you, but you told her that your brother has some chores for you, why?" It felt like he gave up pretty early. I wasn't expecting him to take defeat so casually.

"Because if she wanted to go with him, she should go with him." He most definitely was not going to accept that he had feelings for her.

"Then why didn't you go with someone else?" I inquired, trying to make him confess his feelings for Y/n.

"I didn't feel like it." He wasn't ready to open up so instantly and especially not after the drug comment Y/n passed on him the other day.

"You should have, at least to make Y/n jealous." I was mad at her, she knew what kind of guy Mikey was, yet she decided to go with him.

"Why? She is not so important anymore." He finally swirled his neck in my direction, "Would it be okay to use anyone to make someone jealous?" He added.

"But you two did that in the club, remember?"I mumbled, recalling the club incident.

"That blond girl was trying to steal the attention of her ex, that blond guy who ended up being a royal dogass" he scoffed, "I will not use anyone, Yuzuha, I can't be Y/n." The comment he made itself was a hint that she has hurt him badly.

" Aren't you ever going to forgive her?"I finally asked,

"For what?" He raised his brow, "Nothing happened." There was a visible frown, he was lying.

"So you are on nice terms with her?" I knew I was annoying, but I wanted to make him open up a little.

"Terms!" He scoffed and shook his head, "everything is fine. And by fine, she is nothing to me no more." He muttered in his mouth. "So why didn't you take a guy to jealous Hanma?" He finally smirked and watched my face, turning his body slightly towards me. I have noticed, Sanzu wasn't like most of the teenagers, he was very strong and always reacted very calmy. He was not much of a complainer too.

"He has moved on," I uttered, I've no idea how many times I have said this, but almost everyone moves on from me.

"He doesn't like that girl," Sanzu reassured, pouting his lips and blinking his eyes.

" He can't take a girl on a date and then act like it was just to tease me." I honestly didn't wanna talk about him, he left me for something I didn't even do.

"Can I ask you something?" His eyes were very beautiful, every time he moved his eyes, I forgot my words.

"Sure," I mumbled,

"Why did Mikey break up with you that day? And why did you let me drop you home?" I was wondering why he hasn't questioned me about it already. Sanzu was waiting for my answer, something that I haven't told anyone. It indeed was a mystery to everyone that I suddenly befriended Sanzu.

"He broke up with me for Y/n." I replied and stole Sanzu's whole attention, "before our breakup, I noticed he was being mean to Y/n, always manipulating her and playing with her emotions. So when we met in the lockers, I told him that he needs to stop, we had a huge argument, and then all of a sudden he decided to make out with me. I wasn't ready for it, I pushed him off me and that triggered his anger, he began yelling, pushing me at the lockers, asking me to beg for his forgiveness, and cry for his touch. He always wanted me to be okay with everything he does, never question his actions. I was not ready for it so I defied him, he slapped me that day Sanzu, and then left." I had only completed and when I looked in Sanzu's eyes, they were red due to anger.

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" He muttered, making tight fists of his hands. I have not seen him indulge in a fight this many times, but I knew he could beat Mikey's annoying ass in seconds.

"I just didn't want Y/n to know that she was the reason behind my breakup, because I wasn't ready to let him play with my friend's emotions," I stated and looked down.

" If you had told her before, she would-," Sanzu hasn't even finished yet when I intervened.

"Then she must have left me earlier." I tried to hide my tears, I was never the priority in anyone's life, but I never showed them how weak I was.

"And I chose to go with you because I realized that I was safe with you and not with that Mikey because I realized, everything that has been told about you by Mikey was a lie. Yes, Sanzu, Mikey was the one who bickered about you." I mumbled and a smile plastered on his face.

" Sanzu, he is horrible, the abuse I went through, I don't want Y/n to go through that too." Just the thought of how twisted Mikey was, made my body shiver in fear.
