FALLING

Unheard Love

~Novomi A.V~

< yohoo! my name is 'Nozomi Ai' and right now i'm just getting ready !?>

my bestie 'Chūjitsuna Lucie' invited me for her 16th birthday, in there mansion, its a formal gathering so i wore a dress lucie-chan gave me(she's the daugther of a great company.

*that evening of the party

*waltz song

as i dance with my best guy friend 'Mamoru Ace'...i noticed 'Fo̱teinó Lux' was glaring intently with his deep red eyes in our direction...then he suddenly smirked and walked away...

_____________

it was time for the farewell greetings....

"thank you everyone for coming for my celebration...i truly am gra-"when lucie-chan was about to finish.

"yes!,truly I AM truly grateful that all of you came to MY FIANCE's celebration" lux-kun snatched the mic from her and announced that he and lucie-chan are engage.

(i felt heart break to pieces because Lux-kun was my childhood friend <along with ace-kun and lucie-chan> and first love )

the crowd fell silent then people started clapping and congratulating them.

i was tearing up but then i notice Lucie's pained expression gazing at me.... because she knew i love him...as i gazed at her with a smile trying to hold my tears back i yelled "CONGRATS YOU TWO!!"

in shock she then dashed away into the crowed. i know she feels guilty because she too love someone else, yet her parents do not approve of her love that's why she can't confess to him...

_______________

after that i left the party, ace-kun insisted to walk me home.

we were reaching my house but we stayed at a small playground to rest, we sat down at the swing.

_______________

as ace-kun patted my head gently, tears started to flow down my cheeks

i glanced at him asking "why ?" as if not knowing what to do, then ace-kun hugged me as if i was a valuable and fragile object...

"waaahhhhh!!!waaaahhh!!"in his arms my tears flowed non-stop, i cried and cried.

i was able to let the pain out of my chest thanks to ace-kun .(maybe because i always feel safe around him).

_______________

my tears finally dried up and we started walking again, my feet was sore from walking in heels (im not used to heels)

ace-kun had noticed my sore feet "take off your shoes"

"huh!? w-why"i flustered

"you look unpleasant walking with sore feet, you know" ace-kun claimed

"do you want me to walk barefoot!?...well that's a lot better then forcing to walk in this state"

i took my shoes off and started to walk

"wait!?... where are you going Ai-chan"as he lifted me up in a princess-like carry

"HEY!!put me down"i flustered, i felt my face becoming hot

"no!" he answered without hesitation

"w-why"i asked while i struggle away from him

"do you really think i'll let you walk like that"ace-kun explained"you'd look like a fool"

"ugh!...won't you really put me down?"(ugh...he's right that i would really look like a fool)

"i won't"

"you're really stubborn ace-kun..."

*sigh

"alright then at least carry me in a less princess-y way"

*sigh

"OK fine"

ace-kun finally let me down then he stood in front of me, his back facing me in a kneeling position... i slowly got on his back and he gave me a piggy-back ride which is better. i felt relaxed because a lot of things troubled me...

"i'm sorry, i'm heavy, right?"i asked in a shy manner

"yeah..hahahaha" he answered teasingly

"WHAT THE FUDGE!! then put me down"i yelled hiding my embarrassment.

"hahaha...i'm joking your not heavy at all..."

"geez...don't joke about"*yawn "a girls-"slowly i dozed off and fell asleep

"hmm...are you asleep already"( looks up at the sky )"well...it doesn't really matter what your weight is, you know"

"i promise you... i'll be your knight that will always carry you from now on..no matter what happens i'll catch you, every time you fall.....even if...if you're not falling for.."

*chuckle

'now i'm just talking to myself.....i really am weird when it comes to you'he thought to himself as he gazed up at the starry night...
