In Your Eyes

Chapter 6: "Fake"

Yuki's pov

"Her parents just let her manage some of their projects. Nothing fancy, she's usually occupied with that."  Ino explained. (Girl you're an Angel!)

"Yea, it's charity stuff my grandpa does." I made the lie go further. I could see all of them nodding. (I'm good.) To be honest, I haven't seen my grandparents in two whole years. They left after retirement. Since they own a private Island, it was easy for them to move to a peaceful place. I miss them a lot.

"Yea yea, let's get wasted now!" Ruko shouted, while I scooted for Ino to seat. She explained how the business progress was going and gave me a hint of how she found out who I was. It wasn't my disguise but Nanami spilled the beans. (Can I trust her tho?)

The first thing I heard the next morning was my alarm. "What time is it?" I checked,  it was 04:00am. I still had time to go sneak in. Yea, in my own house.

"Wake up babe, I need to go now."

I woke up the girl, who's name I didn't renember. It was a really epic night. (I can't work at this state.) Nanami was already informed about me working home. He just forwarded the message to my team and the secretaries. The apartment was already payed for, I just left the rest with my friends. They were laying on the couches but only two people were missing. Kodoku and his girl. I guess they slept somewhere else. (See you later guys.)

"Damn my head hurts. Did I drink the whole bar last night or something?" I whined while dragging my body to the bathroom. Good thing I had my own private one. Only one of the cleaners was allowed to clean my room. It felt relaxing to have warm water flow down my body. After freshening up, I got dressed in my Kappa track pants. Black Nike sneakers, with a grey pair of socks. My hair was let down for a while. It needed to dry. Breakfast was already being prepared after I was done. How do I know? I could smell the bacon from the stairs.

"Ohayo Yuki-san, I hope you're fine. Your breakfast will be ready in five minutes." It was the Butler's job to make sure everything goes well around the house and sometimes work too.

"Ohayo. I am fine Simon, please send my breakfast upstairs in my office. I'm working from home today."

"As you wish Yuki-san." He bowed and then went on with his work. The rest of the workers had started too. Even the gardener. I on the other hand dragged my feet to my office.

I gently tyed my hair up in a bun. My hoodie jacket was now on my chair. My black tank top was revealed. I now had it on with the track pants and sandals. My make-up was light, almost natural. I had my diamond necklace on, which I always wore. It was sentimental. (I gotta look pleasing even at home, someone from work might pop up, argh!) "Turn on aircon." I demanded AI. Working in a cool environment was what I enjoyed the most.

After I was done with breakfast, I checked in with my secretary at work. Nanami was handling all the meetings in my absence. (I think it's includes one with Midoriya Tech at lunch. I hope someone's ego doesn't get bruised.) I knew if Nanami got any annoying demanding client, they should be sent to me. I know how deal with annoying pests. My pile of work wasn't giving me any break. I kept on demanding coffee to be sent upstairs and before I knew it. The clock had hit 05:00 PM.

"Your sweet coffee Ichida-san." (I could recognise that annoying voice from anywhere. Midoriya.)

"I like it bitter Midoriya. What are you doing here?" I asked, not looking up at him. My eyes were fixated on the computer screen, while my fingers didn't stop typing. "And who even let you in?"

"That's not how you greet a visitor or a business colleague. Your maids let me in, they couldn't resist these charms..." His tone became more cockier. "and your butler told me you were here working. As for your guards, they saw my business card."

"You came prepared? Whatever Midoriya." I bluntly said. "My coffee, before it gets cold." I let out my hand as I gave him a deadly glare. (Black and silver. Not bad, he actually looks good. And his hair... Okay I need to stop. Calm yourself Yuki.)

"Here, why don't you call me Levi?" He asked with his head tilted at me.

"We're nothing but colleagues. Not some childhood friends." I quickly answered. "What are you doing here?"

"Fine, I came to give you these." He handed me some files with the Midoriya Tech logo. "Only you need to run through them first. Not that Nanami."

("That Nanami?" Okie dokie.)

"Couldn't your PA do this?"

"No, she's not feeling well. So I gave her a lift home before coming here." (That's new)

"So you can be nice? That's something." I didn't pay much attention to him, since I was busy flipping and reading through the pages.

"I care about those who are valuable to me Yuki-san. You tell me why you chose to work from home today?" This time he sat down and studied my face. I could feel his gaze roaming through it.

"I was sick."

"You have answers to everything."

"Of course. Well, everything looks perfect so far. I'll e-mail you my feedback." I stood up from my chair and headed to the balcony for some air. Midoriya followed. It was connected to my room, at the back. They both had doors leading there. There was a huge Sakura at the back. My grandmother planted it. "I guess you know my other escape now." (I gotta admit, he's really good.)

"Great. Another thing." I felt him walking closer towards me. "Who are you exactly?" He whispered in my ear, I don't know why I felt goosebumps this time.

(Yuki pull yourself together. He's an arrogant idiot.) "What do you mean?"

"Your eyes hold a mystery. It's like there's more to you than just a business Hairess. More to you than just this act you're pulling." He whispered and gently kissed my neck, while his hands slid down my waist. "What are your real emotions Yuki? Can you even fall in lo-"

"Urusai."

I quickly cut him off. I knew he was up to something. He wanted to know my weakness and use it against me. (I think I might have given him a "Bingo" just now. Fuck.) "I'm only the Hairess to Ichida Visionaries and Yuki Ichida who's only focused on her work. Nothing else. Get that." (Very convincing Sakura.)

"Why do you love staring at Sakuras? I even saw the edges of your mouth twitch when you did." (That's it.)

"Now you're taking it too far." I quickly turned to face him. "That's none of your business Levi. Now if you can just leave my h-" I got cut off by a surprisingly passionate kiss. At first I didn't respond but when he took it deeper, I struggled to resist. I threw my arms on his shoulders. He then lifted me up to my room. My legs held on tight to his waist, while his hands slid down to my butt.  Not breaking off the kiss. (Damn.) After some seconds we broke it off for some air. We had a strand of saliva.

"Say my name again." He demanded in a breathless, lustful voice.

"You need to go." I said in a stern tone.

"No, I want you right now." He husky deep, voice rumbled through my neck, where he layed soft pecks. Shivers went down my neck. "I know you want me too." This time he deeply looked into my eyes. He was waiting for an answer or a reaction. (What is this feeling? No he's using you Yuki. Don't fall for his act.)

"You're testing me, aren't you?" I tried to control my emotions.

(I can't let him use me like this.) A player never changes and I say that because I am one too.

(Game on Midoriya.)
