Match Made In the Deep Blue

Chapter 10

I sat there quietly eating my ramen, while playing back what just happened in my head. What the hell did just happen?

My mind came back to reality when I remembered I had left Grrell outside.

"Grrell!"

Haru looks at me with a surprised expression while he has a noodle hanging from his mouth.

"Are you ok?"

I ran down the hallway to go get Grrell. It was thirty degrees outside. Of course I was afraid if he was ok or not.

"I'll be right back!"

I screamed.

I ran towards the back door to find Grrell digging at the door to come inside. I let him in and he has a hissy fit.

"I'm sorry Grrell!"

He looks at me with an angered expression.

I got to give him a treat, and his mood completely changed. He then proceeded to lick my face.

"Bark! Bark!"

I couldn't stop laughing. I looked up when Grrell decided he had had his fun, and Haru was staring down at me with a smile on his face.

"I didn't know you had a dog. "

He giggled.

"I didn't know you had a dog."

Grrell looked at him and barked. The he ran up to his leg and started to lick his foot.

"Grrell! Don't lick feet!"

I go to pick him up.

"I'm sorry Haru."

He smiled.

"Don't be."

I put Grrell down.

"Well, he has never acted that way towards another person before."

He giggled.

"Well maybe he thinks I'm special?"

I look up at him. He grabbed me by my waist and pulled me into an embrace.

I didn't know what to do. We were staring deeply into each other's eyes. I couldn't let my gaze move away from those dark, deep blue eyes of his. I felt a chill as though it was coming from him.

He noticed I had gotten goosebumps and pulled me in tighter.

"You don't know how long I have missed you."

He whispered into my ear.

I felt the tears threaten to spill out of my eyes. I held them back as he kissed me softly.
