"I Love You But You're Not Real."

Chapter 9

I'm not crazy...am I?

There are many times that I've hallucinated...but this--this is unusual.

I narrowed my eyes at Hibari Kyoya, inching closer. He noticed and distanced himself from me.

"Are you real?" I asked tentatively.

He ignored me, crossing his arms.

"Are you real?" I repeated.

...

"More importantly..." he looked at the pouring rain and then at me. "We should get out of here."

"Are you real?"

...

"Are you real?"

...

"Are y-"

"Shut up! I'll bite you to death!"
I pouted and stopped.

He was getting annoyed at your nonsense questions. This was also the first time he wanted to hit a girl so much, though he wouldn't even dare.

...

"Are you real?"

He grunted, pulling you close to him, roughly. He's had enough of your question and he wanted to get out of here as soon as possible.

...

My cheeks flushed at our physical contact, surprised a little bit.

This is not good for my heart...

I hope that he can't hear my heart, beating rapidly.

"Just go home already." And then we head in the rain together, sharing the umbrella.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

We arrived at my house, clothes wet and bodies shivering. Thanks to a certain guy, hovering all the spaces.

"Um...Thank you for sharing the umbrella!" I thanked him, standing in front of the gate. I smiled blissfully, gazing at his (scowling) face.

"I'm done repaying you so...bye." Before I could think of a way to make him stay, he walked away from me.

.......

"Who is that?"

"Ah..someone who shared an umbrella with me!"

No he's not just someone...he's Hibari Kyoya...

...

"WAIT A MOMENT! BOY!"

...

He glanced at me, giving a questioning look which he manged to turn threatening. I shrugged in response, confused. I glanced to the side and nearly jumped in surprise.

"Mom?! W-what are you...when did you-"

"At least, accompany us at Dinner!"

What?

I screamed mentally, biting my fingernails while glancing at him.

Mom...please don't!

"No thanks.." he refused, politely.

"Aw! C'mon, don't be shy!"

...

He clicked his tongue, irritated.

...

"I hate crowds" was the thought that passed the Cloud Guardian's mind.

"...and Herbivores.."
