Forevermore ~Gaara~

Chapter 20

"Fuck!" Kenchi growled as his fist collided with a wall just outside of the festival. Where his fist hit, a crawling frost began to grow. It's his anger that controls the ice in his heart. But lately, he felt as if the ice was growing. And as to why was not much of a mystery. "That bastard!" He punched the wall once more. Oh he hated him. Everything in him burned with hatred for that man. It only grew when he saw Honiji with him, smiling like that, her eyes so soft...

Kenchi's face crumbled as he thought about her. She's so... ordinary... but her soul. He knew it was just how she was a person that drew him in. Her face is plain, looking like any other normal person, not beautiful in a normal sense. But that is exactly how he would describe her. Beautiful. Kind. Mature but yet innocent at the same time.

It's her ignorance of the man she is going to marry that really burns him up. She doesn't know what he's done. That's when Kenchi decided. He had to tell her. He had to tell her just what kind of a man Gaara was.

------------------------------------------

The next day, Kenchi walked with a purpose down the school hallway. His eyes were narrowed and focused as he made his way to the library, where he knew he would Honiji before class.

Paku fell in line with him, looking concerned. "Okay, what's up. Last time I saw you like this, Daichi Fumotsu was in the hospital for a week."

"I'm telling Honiji everything."

"Everything?" Paku was highly confused, but then he started to think about everything that had been happening lately. "Wait, you mean everything everything?" He stepped in front of him, halting his movements. "As in... everything?"

Kenchi pushed him out of the way. "Everything. Gaara, you, me, and I'm going to force Kaita to spill what she has been up to lately. I'm sick of these secrets. It's time she knew the truth."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Paku pushed against his chest, having to shake out his hands after they became coated in frost. "Owwww! Jeez! Ow, it's not your place to decide that Kenchi!" He brought heat to his hands in a desperate attempt to stop him. "Enough!" Steam rose from where he touched him, but he still was dead set on his goal.

"Paku, the situation has changed." He had never heard Kenchi so serious. "This has nothing to do with my feelings for Honiji, this has nothing to do with you, or me, or even Gaara. This is about Honiji, who has made a decision with out knowing all the details. This is about keeping her from making all of these discoveries when it's too late."

Paku didn't know what to say. It's true, there is a lot about Gaara that Honiji doesn't know. What if Gaara couldn't talk to her about it until it was too late and they were married? He doesn't think they are in love quite yet, but after what he saw the other night he knew they had some form of feeling for each other. Honiji could get her heart broken... but still... "Kenchi, I know why you want to tell her, but these are not your secrets to tell. Gaara has to tell her, I have to tell her, and whatever Kaita has been doing, if anything, is for her to tell her."

"Not this time. She has to know."

Paku bounce back and forth on his feet, wrestling with what to do now. "Shiiiit!" He moaned as he turned and ran as fast as possible out the school to the one person who might be able to help this situation.

Kaita took a sip of her coffee while checking her email. Honiji sat not far away, sorting and organizing the sewing she had done to deliver today. Both jumped when Kenchi pushed the door open so hard it bashed into the wall. Kaita saw his face and knew almost instinctively that she needed to talk him out of it. But before she could form the thought, He was in front of Honiji, ready to tell her everything.

"Honiji, I have a lot to tell you. None of it is good but all of it is important. So I need you to listen."

"Uhh..." She had no idea what was going on and looked briefly over to Kaita behind the desk who was wide eyed and shocked. "Ooookay. What's going on Ken?"

"Kenchi." Kaita warned. "Should we discuss this before hand?"

"No. Nothing you could say would change my mind."

"Anything I could say, then?" Everyone turned to the new addition. Gaara stood in the doorway, Paku next to him.

Kenchi saw red as his lips curled into a snarl and his fists raised. "You!" Was all he cried before charging.
