We Will Meet Again

Setsura found it difficult to concentrate on the files. While she took a seat on the bench, Yang followed her and sat beside her. She didn't pay any attention to him at first. Him kissing her neck and behind her ear didn't bother her so much. But when his hands lifted her shirt and her skirt - she shot him a glare. "Why won't you let me focus?"

She was getting sick and tired of him distracting her. At least when she was together with Akito, he allowed her to work on the cases. But Yang? Yang never gives her time to investigate properly. Lately, she has to study secretly at night - because the moron insists on doing it every day.

"Baby, do you have to do that here? I snuck out to see you for a bit, can't you pay some attention to me?" Yang's complaints sounded so childish to her.

Yet, it worked. She put the doc.u.ments down and turned to him. He sat her on his lap, and she wrapped her arms around his neck. Yang chuckled, "Were you playing tough again?"

"Shut up."

"Setsura, I won't let those people harm you."

Harm? What is he talking about? But her thoughts break off when she feels the heat coarse through her body. She didn't know when his hands got there, but now he was touching her b.r.e.a.s.ts. Setsura had to bite her lips.

...

Thankfully Yang isn't that much of a fool. All he did was kiss her, kiss her a lot, and touched her a bit before letting her go. "You okay?"

"Give me a few minutes."

Yang nodded, "Well, since you can't talk back now. I'll tell you straight what I'm thinking, okay?"

She rolled her eyes at that comment. What is he thinking now?

"I think we shouldn't see each other.."

"You're breaking up with me?"

He frantically shook his head, "You know that's not it. At Taiga's, we can still act the same. But in public, we shouldn't be seen together. Your brother is still abroad and on a business trip. However, with the strange rumors circulating lately, he will rush back. He will cause problems for you and your family... Other people will scorn this relationship."

Strangely, he's talking sense now. Setsura thought this from the very start; it was not new to her. This is one of the reasons why she didn't want Yang coming with her. But he followed her anyway; she struggled how to phrase her thoughts. It seemed like he thought the same as her.

"Then, why did you come to see me?"

Yang looked her up and down, "I didn't get a chance to do anything to you in this outfit earlier. So I thought I would take my chance."

Her eyes twitched in annoyance; he risked everything for this? "I'll carry you to the door," Yang offered.

Setsura didn't hesitate to accept his offer and climbed on his back.

"I have to ask you this though, why is your stamina so bad? You used to do all that fieldwork in the police force, right?"

Setsura sighed, "Well, I was on probation for a while. What about you? Weren't you hiding away for so long?"

"Yeah, but I made sure to exercise. We were on the move a lot too."

"I see, maybe I should start going to the gym... But I hate all that health stuff. I prefer junk food."

"And yet you still remain skinny," Yang quickly turned his head to place kisses on her cheeks. "You're lovely. But I think you should eat more."

"I've been pigging out since I got here, I miss my junk food," Setsura sighed. "In the Meiji era, there is only healthy and plain food there."

"Still can't walk?"

"Yep, my legs feel like jelly."

"You sure you're okay?" he said concerned. "We were only kissing Setsura."

Setsura pinched his cheeks. "Yes, we only kissed today. But do you remember what you did to me last night?"

"I remember clearly, baby, that was nice, huh?"

Geez, this guy - men do only have s.e.x on their minds. Yang does treat her very well, though, so she can't complain too much. Setsura buried her face in his neck and inhaled his scent. He doesn't smell of another woman, but those odd marks she sees on his neck occasionally worry her. If Yang cheated on her, she would have to break up with him. Breaking up would end their ties to each other.

This was why she didn't want to date someone who was her friend. She didn't want things to become awkward after the breakup. The chances of them remaining friends after breaking up are very slim too.

"Setsura, sorry. But can I kiss you again?"

At that comment, Setsura looked at him. She really looked. This person loves her, doesn't he? Otherwise, he wouldn't go so far. Setsura agreed, and Yang kissed her the entire time though she was distracted. Yang loves her, and she can feel his love for her. But at the same time, something feels wrong.

…..

When she arrives at the training room, she spotted blue hair fast on the ground, fast asleep. Chauncey .... Setsura saw the bag in his hands, could it be…that he came here because he's worried about her? Truly, right now, she isn't alone, is she? It's scary, and the more she wishes to bask in this happiness, the more darkness she will surround her.

She's sorry.

He must be furious at her after all.

It's only natural that he would sulk and start throwing a tantrum.

But no matter what you throw at her, she will face it because there are people who have become so very dear and important to her.

Setsura bent down and softly kissed the temple of his forehead. "Thank you," she whispers.

She glanced over and noticed the others fast asleep too. Setsura chuckles lightly; these people sleep through anything, can't he? But she feels relieved, all of them work a lot for her sake. Although they say nothing, she can tell from just looking at them.

Right now, she's at her weakest point, and if she carries on going on any more missions or even escorting groups around, she will probably be more of a hindrance. There is nothing she can do to repay the kindness of everyone who has taken care of her. However, her gaze lands on the scattered folders. If there is something she can do now is to convey those feelings, she can hear resounding so very loudly in her heart.
