Finding You

Chapter 16: Fiancee

Her silence was making his heart go haywire with worry, observing her every movement guessing what she might be thinking.

It was never a problem for him to read her before. She was always transparent with him, he's sensitive with her every emotion like a personal hobby.When he found her, he witnessed her guarded eyes, every emotion hidden, locked by a high and thick wall. Her change became a scar in his heart, thinking that it was his fault.

Now, he could somehow understand her. Yaya is a woman who's fed up with being left behind. Nadech didn't know just how much he hurt her but he can guess how big the impact is when he came back for her, then left her again a few days after.

He didn't want to hide anything from her, it's a way for her to understand him and let him lay out all his plans for them properly; without any complications, without secrets, without the past holding them back.

Yaya was currently looking over the distance. He doesn't know if she's ready to hear more of his explanation but he decided to continue, hoping and praying to the heavens she won't blame herself.

"The last shot was fatal, near my heart so I was -I was in a coma for 3 months. " Nadech took a deep breath looking at her back. Searching for some kind of reaction, similar to her earlier outburst.

Yaya didn't know what to say so she stayed silent, the truth shocked her whole world. She didn't know what to feel, her emotions have been showcasing itself freely when he's around.

In the span of how many days since their reunion she cried, smiled often and sometimes even giggled. He also made her feel intense anger, confusion and upon his departure she felt extreme desolation.

Now the concentrated form of despair is taking over her whole being, consuming her until she couldn't even react anymore. The mere thought of him being hurt because of her destroyed everything she believed in.

Her thought didn't even need convincing because what she thought is beginning to be her truth. It was her fault. She was to blame for what happened to him. He nearly died because of her.

She pressed her hands against her mouth to stop the sobs from escaping. She'd rather keep it in like she always do. She was ashamed of herself for being selfish, right from the start he was the one who suffered more than she did.

"I'm sorry. Bear It's my fault- it's my -" The sudden pull on her arms startled her. Yaya was suddenly rotated, crashing into Barry's hard body. Both of his hands gently held her face making her look up. He looked at her as if his last string of patience has disappeared, but before she could react fully.

He was kissing her like his life depended on it.

Kissing her so passionately, his lips moving, guiding her to move along with his. She could taste the saltiness of her tears, but she completely forgot why they fell in the first place.

Yaya was stuck at first, this was her first kiss, not knowing what to do so she tried moving along the direction of Barry's lips, his hands now holding the back of her head with more strength to deepen it when he felt her responding slowly, while his other arms holding the small of her back firmly, not leaving any space between them.

She held onto his neck, his coat, his face, anywhere her hands decided to land; completely losing control of her movements. Just focusing on the warmth of his mouth against hers. His deep groan made her tighten her grip on the back of his head, making him smile against her lips, yet he never stopped.

After a while, his lips left hers slowly, traveling up her nose giving it a wet kiss, then her forehead, then back to her lips landing a light peck.

She closed her eyes savoring the moment. Feeling his heartbeat with her hands on his chest. She was breathless, undeniably entranced by what happened.

"I don't want you to blame yourself my dear bunny." He whispered against her forehead.

"If I didn't leave Japan that day, they would've gotten to me earlier. If I wasn't in Thailand that time, I might be dead right now. " Yaya hugged him tighter with his words, trying to erase the thoughts of him dying in her already chaotic mind.

Nadech hugged her back tighter, Hoping that this could be the closure they needed to start over. Praying that she won't ask about his 10 day disappearance and leave it at that.

"We are heading to Zermatt tomorrow morning." Nadech mentioned while Yaya studied the Menu in her hands. "Isn't that the famous place for skiing?" She asked him, putting the menu down, letting him order for her. The waiter left them after taking their orders, seemingly stunned at the man's decision to order more than half of the menu.

They were at a high end restaurant in the village. Nadech took her here directly upon hearing her growling stomach along the way back to their villa. It was only a 5 minute ride.

"Do you want to ski?" Nadech asked her, ignoring the waiters dumbfounded expression. Nadech ordered all of the restaurants specialties, including its desserts. It didn't matter to him if he ordered more food that they could finish. He just wants his bunny to enjoy her meal, it was his way of spoiling her.

"Sure, Are you going to teach me how to Mr. Kugimiya.? " She asked as she propped her face up with her hand, watching him take a sip of his water. "Of course I will." He answered almost immediately, giving her an impish smile.

Yaya glared at the man, understanding his thought process instantly. This man is a wolf. His roguish personality completely different form her innocent bear. Yet, her blush was a sign of just how affected she is, remembering their passionate kiss earlier.

"Mr. Kugimiya. " Yaya's thoughts were interrupted by a blonde man in a gray suit approaching them with a fox like smile. "What a coincidence? The last time we saw each other was when you were in the US, 2 months ago. " The man spoke in a fairly thick American accent, he had an average built, shorter than Barry by an inch. "Mr. Bailey. " Nadech rose from his seat and shook the man's hand.

He darted his gaze towards Yaya. "And who might this lovely lady be?" partially interested with the woman who can casually sit with this man who's deemed a devil in the business world.

"My Fiancée, Dahlia." He answered, his serious face held no shame, earning an embarrassed smile from Yaya.

"Oh! Quite surprising because 2 months ago you were still looking- "

"Brother." A voice cut off Mr. Bailey's words making the 3 of them turn the heads to the newcomer. A lady wearing a low-cut burgundy long dress and a thick fur coat was approaching them.

"Mr. Kugimiya. You're here! " She said in a slightly higher tone than the one she used with her brother. "It's nice seeing you again. You have gotten more handsome. " She uttered without even sparing a glance at Yaya.

Nadech, who was very observant, especially when Yaya is here developed a hardened expression on his face, seeing the woman ignore his beloved woman intentionally.
