The One That Got Away

I Remember How We Confessed Our Feelings to Each Other...

Developing feelings for her was the best thing that ever happened to me.

It was a rainy school day. Yuki was sitting on the bleachers, cheering for our basketball team as we had a practice game against another middle school. We won with a score of one hundred and thirty-eight to ten.

"You did great Akashi-kun!" Yuki clapped her hands together, smiling. I smiled back at there as I told her to wait for me while I went and changed.

A few minutes later, as I came out of the change room, Yuki was not there...again... I sighed and started to look for her, until I found her at the school's entrance. But this time, she was with another boy under an umbrella. My teeth gritted against each other and my hands were clutching too tight that they turned white.

I was so close to getting out my scissors from my pocket and throw them at him when I heard that he wanted to go out with her. But I remained calm, and saw Yuki that she was a blushing mess. "There is no way that I am going to let anyone take her away from me." I mumbled to myself. I swiftly marched my way behind Yuki, not caring that it was raining and wrapped my arms around her waist pulling her to me.

"She won't go on a date with you since she is dating me. I would appreciate it if you didn't come near her, talked to her, or even looked at there. If you do so, I will no doubt but make your life miserable." I glared at him, giving him a dozen daggers with my eyes.

"O-of c-c-course A-akashi-kun! I am sorry Yamamoto-chan for calling you out here! Please excuse me!" he trembled as he ran away.

Tranquility filled the air for a while till Yuki asked. "Why did you say that to him Akashi-kun? Now there will be rumors about us dating."

"I don't care. Besides, that was what I exactly wanted. You are mine and mine alone Yuki." I answered, turning her around, and giving her a tender sweet kiss that felt like heaven to me. Sooner or later, I noticed that she was also kissing back. We remained like that for a few seconds, though it felt like hours. Unfortunately, due to lack of oxygen, we had to pull away.

"I love you Yuki. I have ever since I had saved you from those jerks." I expressed, hugging her. I felt her arms make their way around my back, hugging me as well.

"I love you to Aka-"

"Seijuro."

"Huh?"

"Call me by my given name Yuki." I insisted.

"Okay Seijuro. I love you too."
