Tekken Fan Fiction ❯ Jin and Xiaoyu love story ❯ She's hiding ( Chapter 11 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
It’s lunch time and I can’t find Xiaoyu; I want to tell her that, I want to be with her too. But she needs to decide what she’s going to about Hwoarang. Things with them must end before something with us can begin. Having walked the full lunch area and nothing yet! She really wouldn’t sit in class and skip lunch; is that possible? Xiaoyu can eat a lot. Well I know she’s not hiding anywhere out here… so time to check her class. Being the founders owners grandson, does have it’s privileges; of course I know every class of Xiaoyu’s.

Just my luck; Xiaoyu is outside of her class. She has her back turned toward me so she won’t see me coming; “I’ve been looking all over for you.” She turned around fast and surprised to see me; ‘Jin” she says in a shaky voice. “I wanted to make sure you were okay; I know this morning’s ride… was kind of… deep.” I didn’t know how to word that correctly; I don’t want to pretend I’m disregarding what was said. But I don’t want to make her feel like she has to complete what she was about to say. Than it suddenly hits me… she’s not okay. Her expression is boarder line; I don’t think anyone is home. “Well… so maybe you’re not okay” I’m at a loss for words, but I need to get to the point “But you still haven’t answered my question yet?”

“Www… what question” Xiaoyu stutters; maybe she forgot? Smiling, I see her face blush; “What about Hwoarang?” I ask? There is confusion and anger on her face when she asks; “Um… why do you keep asking about him?” Is she serious? “Xiao” I said as calm and unconfused and I could fake; “Xiao… Hwoarang is your boyfriend? I won’t share you with anyone.” The anger dropped from her face; “Ww… what Jin? What are you saying?” Okay now I’m confused… did she not understand? Maybe I need to make it clearer?

“Xiaoyu” I said “I want to be with you too.” I can’t make it anymore clearer than that; if she doesn’t understand from this point… I don’t know how to say it. I can tell she is really thinking hard about this; “So tell me Xiao… what do you plan to do about Hwoarang?” I’m hanging on, hoping she says something like; I’m going to break up with him for you. Or better, but farfetched; maybe she was already going to break up with him because she loves me.

“I had this plan” she started; jumping the gun, “What plan” I’m worried this isn’t going how I’d like it too. But why am I worried… she told she loves me… isn’t that enough? Xiaoyu looks down; this worries me; “When I realized I could only be with you….” This is turning out to be better than I thought; well that was before she cut herself off mid sentence. “I woke up early this morning, to tell you and I had planned to see Hwoarang today and tell him….” Tell him what? Xiaoyu left some things out; “Tell him what?” “That I couldn’t be with him anymore… that I didn’t like him….”

I want to smile and hug her; but it would not be the proper thing to do, but I want to know when she was planning to do this? “When are you going to see him again?” “Today after training… I was going to tell him” I’ve seen Hwoarang a few times; I know what type of hustler he is; “Do you mind if I come with you Xiaoyu?” “Drive me” she asks almost like she didn’t think she heard right. “I just want to make sure my girlfriend is safe.” Her expression is blank, but at least she nods yes!

Dropping Xiaoyu off at the doors to the mall; she needed to walk inside to the arcade to break up with Hwoarang. Driving around the parking lot, I see Hwoarang’s motorcycle. Promising myself one of these days, I’m going to present myself in a place to be hustled; we’ll see if he can handle his own medicine. Annoyed that there are no parking spaces close to the door; no matter I’ll keep driving around, I have no intention of leaving until Xiaoyu gets in the car.

Much to my surprise, Xiaoyu is already out; stopping in front of her she gets in the car; “Is everything okay?” I’m not sure why I’m worried… but I am. “Yeah everything is fine.” I smile at her, hoping she doesn’t see the relief that she spoke away from me.

Arriving home, I parked the car. We met in front of the car; I want to hug or kiss her, but things are very new. I smile and said “Come on let’s go.” Xiaoyu nods and we walk toward the front door; there is that overwhelming feeling to touch her again. Holding her hand will have to do; her hand is so small in mine. I never realized how soft and small her hand was; I mean I never touched it… but I looked at it many time. Glancing I see her looking at me; stopping I ask; “What is it?” She looks cute when her face turns different colors of red. But unfortunately I have to let go of her hand.

Turning my body to give her my full attention; “I haven’t told Grandfather yet… so until I do we must not tell anyone.” “Do you think Heihachi will be okay with us” she asks waiving 2 fingers between us. “Yes” I know this, because he’s asked me several times if I find Xiaoyu attractive “I don’t think he will have a problem with me and you. But I need to make him aware first.” “So you can’t date me… until you tell Heihachi?” I can’t help but laugh; “No I’m going to do that anyways, just not for everyone to see… yet!”
