Kamisato Ayato • Forever Crush

'My lord, lady Bella has arrived.'

Ayato's head shoots up at the mention of the girl's name and his heart starts beating faster by the thought of seeing her. Her golden locks that look as soft as satin, her voice and laugh that sound like music to his ears and not to mention her soft touch.

Yes, the one and only Yashiro Commissioner is heavily in love with his own Cavalry Captain. They grew up together and her adoptive father was the Kamisato's former captain before he passed. Bella worked hard and later on took over the title in honor of her late father.

He has only been able to experience holding her hand once, which was when he had asked her to accompany him during a festival. It was early Spring when she was dressed in a beautiful light blue kimono. He was so used to seeing her in her cavalry outfit, that he didn't think she could look more elegant than she already did. He knew he was head over heels for her and mentally told himself to stay calm when he was about to offer her his arm. Anyone but her could see how much in love he was with her.

He is so sidetracked that he fails to permit the samurai to let her in, until the said man clears his throat.

'My lord...'

'Ah yes, please let her in, quickly.' The samurai bows and quickly disappears to fetch the guest for him, whilst Ayato is mentally preparing himself.

'You may enter my lady.'

'Thank you.' Her gaze turns towards him and he feels like he just lost any ounce of oxygen he had left in his lungs as she smiles softly, greeting him with respect and a little playfulness.

'Goodmorning...my lord.'

Silence falls as Ayato is unable to utter a word as just stares at her like he is caught in a daydream. She crosses her arms with a sign followed by the sound of her clearing her throat, yet it doesn't seem to work at all. What has gotten into him?

'My lord, are you feeling okay?' She frowns as his expression doesn't seem to change at all and it is creeping her out a little. As if it's a mannequin staring at her.

She eventually snaps her fingers in front of him and he jolts up, indicating he woke up from his trance.

'Ah...my apologies, I was...distracted.'

'I could tell, it was quite...scary.' Scaring her is the last thing he'd want, so he immediately bows to apologize furiously, though he really didn't have to go to that extend as she was merely joking.

'So what brought you here?' He asks, secretly hoping it would be just to see him, even though he knows she doesn't visit unless it's work related.

'I've been approached by someone from the Kujou clan. They handed me this letter and asked me to give it to you. I do not know the details and have only been asked to give it to you.'

'I see. Thank you.' She hands him the letter and patiently waits to be dismissed, only for Ayato to invite her to sit down. A little confused she accepts and as he reads the letter, she sees his calm expression turn into a frown.

'The sister of the current Kujou leader is looking for a partner. It seems like she has requested her brother to invite all noble bachelors to visit and spend the day with her. Based on that, she will choose her future husband.'

'Well, she is around your age and you fit the description.'

'I'm not interested.' He puts the letter away without a second thought, which surprises her, yet it's not unexpected. Ayato is never really interested in such things. If it benefits everyone, he will give it some thought, but if it doesn't, he will dismiss the idea or negotiate until he is satisfied.
