Chika's POV:
"Ok. I should leave" Itachi said and surprised me by leaning in to kiss me on my cheek near my ear. He let his lips linger before he pulled back with a soft smile. "I will see you" he whispered as he parted and walked out of the room. I was still frozen against the wall for a minute or two until my heart beat relaxed. What... just happened? What was that kiss? That was a long lingering kiss. That... meant something. I gulped and looked down. What are these Princes doing to me? Just as that thought left my mind the door opened making me snap my head up to see Sasuke close it behind him. Oh God. My eyes widened and I pressed myself up more against the wall. He frowned at me as he casually approached me. I need to distract him.
"Y-You w-want me to f-file and buff your nails?" I asked quickly making him stop in front of me.
"Chika, I know what you are trying to avoid" he said sternly to me making blush creep up into my cheeks. Damn it! No! I just want to forget about it like I am going to do with Itachi! I didn't speak waiting for him to do so. "You will tell me properly why you wanted me to stop. I don't want to hear you stutter. Just tell me" he ordered. Oh God! How can you just tell someone not to stutter?
"I... You're a Prince and I'm a maid" I said looking down at the floor closing my eyes tight. There was a tiny bit of silence before he spoke.
"So that's what made you stop? Because I am a Prince?" he asked me. I took a few calming breaths before I could reply.
"Yes" I whispered with my eyes still closed. I felt him take a step closer.
"Does my title repulse you?" he asked me making me look up at him surprised. What? Is he insane? Where the hell did he get that from?
"N-no! I-I... I can't k-kiss y-you... I-I'm not supposed to do that" I explained still feeling shocked that he didn't get that. How could he not? Princes always exercise their place by ordering people around. How could he forget that he is meant to stay with people in his social sphere? How could he forget that I am a maid?
"Hn" he said sounding annoyed as he looked off to the side. "Funny that I am a Prince that holds so much power but yet I can't kiss who I want" he said dryly. What? So... he wanted to kiss me... But that must have been a mistake.
"I-I shouldn't have said those things... I-I'm sorry" I apologised looking down as I bit my lip. I know he ordered me to but that might have confused him. I could tell he looked back at me.
"No. I wanted to hear what you thought. I wanted to hear what a real person would say. Not someone who is infatuated with me because of my title or looks" he said with venom. Ok. I nodded slowly gulping. Then he caught my chin and raised it up. He leaned his face right in to mine. "And Chika... I don't regret the kiss" he whispered making me go completely stiff. He lightly pressed his lips on my cheek at the side of my mouth for a few seconds creating butterflies to explode in my stomach. He pulled back smirking at my flushed face. "You were saying that you were going to buff and file my nails?" he asked me with a smirk. It took me a second or two to regain myself. I nodded quickly making him smirk wider. He glanced down to my lips and back up to my eyes. "You're killing me" he whispered but pulled back and let me go. As he walked over to the bed I realised that I was still firmly pressed against the wall. I regained breathing but it was erratic. "And Chika, I would like you to moisturise my hands when you're finished. You have this... touch that is quite irresistible" he told me smirking even wider as I flushed and looked away from him. I nodded though and peeled myself off the wall. Never did I ever think that I, a simple girl, would end up in between two Princes.
Later that evening...
I was relieved to head back to my sleeping quarters. I just want to go to sleep. That's all I want to do. I had a heck of a day mentally and I just want to block it all out by conking. But when I opened my door to my room, I was left frozen there. What. The. Hell?
