Part Forty

 

 

I couldn't tear my eyes away from him. He was really just sitting there, smiling at me. Wanting for me to come and talk to him. There was a twinkle in his eye that warmed me to my very core. It was mischievous and daring. He smirked and raised his glass up, tilting it in a silent cheers. I imitated his movements and sipped my champagne, smiling into the rim. I closed my eyes and sighed, praying that I wasn't imagining things. Praying that my illness hadn't gotten worse. I had thought all of my chances to be with him long gone from that one day in the café when it was pouring down rain, but it looked as if I had been granted a second chance. I could only hope that I would not loose it.

 

I opened my eyes and found him standing next to my sister's chair, smirking down at me.

 

“Is this seat taken,” he all but purred, and my belly did a flip-flop.

 

“Yes…I mean no…I mean…it is, but they won't mind,” I blushed. How could I get so tongue tied around him? I was making a horrible “first” impression.

 

“Well then, they will just have to find a different one. I've never seen you here before.”

 

“I don't normally come here. I was helping my sister move into a new apartment, and we decided to come here to celebrate. Do you come here often?”

 

“Frequently,” he replied, the word dripping like honey from his lips. I had to fight back a sudden urge to taste them and find out if they were the just as sweet as they looked and sounded.

 

“My name is Kikyo,” I said after a moment of staring into his smoldering eyes, finally finding my voice. “You are?”

 

I held my breath, waiting to finally be able to place a name on the man that had come to my little café for so many months, ordering nothing but a blueberry scone and a cup of coffee. I would finally have a name to put with the face, other then White Rose.

 

“Call me T.”

 

“Tea? As in the drink?”

 

“T as in the letter.”

 

I felt my heart drop a little. So he was giving me a fake name.

 

“T huh?”

 

“It is what my friends call me,” he airily replied, acting as if it was an everyday occurrence to give out a fake name, or name yourself after a letter.

 

“Will I ever get to know what your coworkers call you,” I asked him, placing a smirk on my face to match the one that was on his.

 

“Beautiful and witty, I see.”

 

“Smooth and evasive, I see.”

 

He chuckled at that. “It depends on how well we get to know each other tonight.”

 

I took a deep breath, preparing myself for the bold move I was about to make.

 

“Well then,” I breathed, rising to my feet and running my fingers across his shoulder as I walked past him, daring him to follow. “We will just have to become better acquainted.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A/N: Hn…wonder why he gave out the fake name? Ah well…Kikyo is finally talking to him at least. I took a step back today and briefly reread the first 11 parts to this, and I just realized that I should be having the BIG reveal soon. In reality…

 

1. My timeline is a bit messed up, as it went from October to around January, I believe, back to November, then up to December, January, and February (I think February…this is horrible!!!) So in reality, this story's timeline (once I fix that) is about 6 or 8 months into the plot. Gonna haffta sit down and figure that out.

 

2. My plot has changed for the better. What is going on right now was never gonna happen originally, but what the hell. People think this is a Kikyo story instead of an Inu/Kag, so I'm just gonna go all the fuckin' way.

 

 

ARs!!! (only new ones…srry! Idk if I will ever find time to get to the ones I never did! I'm so sorry!!!!!)

Hn…I can't recall ever saying what Inu looks like, but Kik. Says that she can see her sister with someone tall, dark, and handsome. Something along those lines. I took the “Black hair, tan skin, chocolate eyes. Perfection that I wanted to throw into my batter mix and eat up. Slowly.” Part as a direct quote from one of my earlier chapters. The first time she sees him she thinks that. The “White Rose” part was to help people try and figure out who is who if at the beginning if they ever read my first fanfiction, and hopefully one day book, White Rose. I used the same characters, and they were in similar relationship possistions, only Kikyo was Kag's mother, not sister. Don't think I ever said that too in that fiction. Oops? Things should be getting better in the chapters to come!!! Thanks for the review and keep reading!!!
