Falling in Love With my Rival

~Chapter 3~

      It's been a month since I moved to Japan and Mikazuki has been really nice to me; I don't know why. I kinda want to know why because last time someone was nice to me,it didn't end very well. Mikazuki is my only friend here and I'm glad I made a friend. It as really hard for me to make friends make in America because everyone knew about my eye and the scars across my mouth. I want to tell him but I'm afraid that he'll want to stop being my friend. Well, no matter, I'll still tell him, he's the only person that I can trust.
He's cooking dinner which I'm sure will be really good. Since ha said that I can look around, I guess I'll take a look, I mean his house is pretty big, bigger than mine at least. I get up from the bar and head towards the door. I start at the entrance and start looking around. When I'm at the door, I enter the living room. There's a black couch that is fabric and a flat screen tv on the wall. A coffee table separates the tv and the couch. On the left side of the room there is a door that leads into the kitchen. Next to the door is a round table. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling.
      There is a staircase on both sides of the tv that must lead upstairs. I'll go up there later. On the right side of the room is a hallway. I head towards the hallway and see a light switch on left. I flip the switch and the hallway is lit up by lanterns that are attached to the wall. On the left side there are three doors, while on the right side, there are two.
      I go to the first door on the left and open it. I walk into a bathroom with the tub and a shower. The tub and shower are not attached. I leave the bathroom and shut the door. I didn't go to the other side and try the door but it seems to be locked. I try the other four doors and they are also locked. So, I headed back into the living room and decide to sit on the couch.
      30 minutes have now passed in the food is smelling delicious. I get up from the couch and head into the kitchen.
      "Hey dinners ready." Mikazuki says grabbing plates from the cabinet. "You can sit down, I'll fix it for you."
      "Ok" I take a seat at a small round wooden table. The chairs are really comfy. Mika comes over to me, bringing two plates and takes a seat cross from me. "Thanks"
      "Your welcome. So, how's school?" He ask looking at me waiting for an answer.
      "It's good I guess."
      "Are you sure? I mean I don't really see you talking to anyone other than me. How bout I introduce you to my friend Daichi?"
      "I don't know, I'm socially awkward."
      "Oh~? Well, your not awkward around me." He says and I start to feel his soft little toes explore my legs. I start to blush. I forgot he didn't have shoes on. Damn it.
      "W-we'll that's because I've gotten use to being around you."
      "Oh~ ok well how's the food?" I don't feel his feet anymore, I guess he moved them. Wait never mind.
      "It's good!!" I guess know should be a good time to tell him. Wait, no, if he doesn't bring it up, I won't tell him.
      "Ok," He starts saying. "I've been wondering since the first time I met you. Why do you cover your right eye with your hair, and why do you always wear that mask?"
      I guess I will be telling him. I didn't want to remember my past but, I guess I have to. I close my eyes and move my hair out o my eyes. Taking off my mask, I hear a gasp escape from his mouth as a chair falls to the floor. Opening my eyes, I see a shocked and possibly horrified Mikazuki standing up.
      "What happened to you!?" Mika comes running over to me and puts his arms around me. His hugs are so warm and cuddly, I wanna stay like this forever.
      I crack a grin and say "It's a long story."
      "I've got time." He says picking me up, and carrying me like a princess (or prince in this case), and brings us to the living room, setting me down on the couch. He sits down next to me and holds my hand. I guess I have to tell my childhood to a person who became my best friend in just a month. How did I let this happen though? I promised myself I wouldn't let anyone get close to me ever again not em after getting my heartbroken once.
