Chapter 517: I Want To Cling To Him

Gah it is impossible to win against him. Sumire climbed on top of him and played with his hair. "Are you not going to work today?"

"Hmmm no. I called in sick explaining how my wife may need assistance today."

"Moron."

Yuhi caressed her cheeks. "But you really do look pale. I don't regret last night, however you should rest up today." 

'I don't regret it huh? If he said he felt bad about touching me when I was sick, I may have gotten mad.' But of course he won't say anything that would upset her.

"I managed to get on stage, that is one hurdle I overcame. But I didnt sing yesterday so I am still unsure whether I can get on stage and sing."

"Do you lack confidence?"

"The reason I managed to get on stage, I think it was because of you Yuhi-san." She mumbled. "When I heard the audience saying all that stuff, I broke down. I was on the verge of giving up my place. But right as I was about to, you took your mask off and called me onto the stage. If you didn't do that then I wouldn't have been able to go on."

"Then I just have to be within your line of sight, the solution is simple."

"But, in the future there will be times where you will be unable to watch my shows. You won't be able to follow me everywhere. Yuhi-san you are at the top of the entertainment industry right now, because of my break I am now back at the bottom. I cannot compare our workload. You will be very busy."

Moreover he has already made so many sacrifices for her sake. 'I cannot allow him to continue doing that, it would be unfair of me.'

Her thoughts broke off when Yuhi pressed his lips against hers. It was a light kiss and yet she felt the powerful emotion behind it. This man loves her, he is willing to do anything for her happiness. No matter how much she refuses, he has already made his mind up.

"Sometimes I think you can be crueler than me."

"You said something like that to me before, you said I was the cruellest person you knew."

"That I did." Sumire traced her fingers on the scars on his chest. "Do these hurt?"

"Not anymore."

"I won't let you get hurt anymore." Sumire said confidently. 

Yuhi laughed. "That's usually the guy's line." His gaze softened as he pressed his thumb against her lip. "So, how was it?"

Sumire sighed when she heard his question. Just because she has let her guard down doesn't give him the right to tease her this much. Still, it appears as though they are having one of those cliche honest moments again.

"It was good, but my stamina."

"Your stamina? I think it's fine."

She shook her head. "Definitely not, if we are going to do that more then I need to work on it."

Yuhi shifted their positions until he was on top. "I think you should sleep more."

The next time she opened her eyes, she realizes that a few hours went by judging from the now grey skies.

'It started to rain.' The weather is truly unpredictable during the winter.

"Hey, you can stand now?"

Sumire sighed deeply. "It's your fault stupid." Her gaze fell onto the canvas on Yuhi's right side. It was a painting of her, but a painting of the outfit she wore yesterday during the dance.

So that's the painting he was talking about.

She walked over to him, and wrapped her arms around his neck as she sat on his lap.

'He smells good. I can get used to doing this.' 

"Hey, don't just sniffle."

At his words she started to suck on the soft flesh in front of her. 'His blood, it's so sweet.' Sumire didn't understand why. She thought drinking blood would be more disgusting. But, it tastes good. 

After she drew her back she lowered her gaze, cheeks flushed red. Yuhi laughed. "Was it nice my love?"

"I think so."

"That's good, you can have more later."

'During days where it is raining, I just want to cling to him like this like a spoiled child.'

But to have such selfish sounding thoughts all the time is no good.

While they could get away with taking a break the day after the dance event. Unfortunately they could not do so two days in a row. Yuhi sat in his dressing room, script in hand with his fellow team members in the room.

"It's a bit too late to ask but you guys don't mind?" Yuhi mumbled.

Despite his vague way of explaining, it seems the others understood what he was getting at.

"It's more like this. When we all first fell in love with her, we already decided that we would never ask her out."

"It's different with Iwa?"

Iwa Ran was the only guy he had left to get along with.

Jun nodded. "Very different. He genuinely believed that he could snatch her away. However, your appearance startled him. He probably had no idea that Sumire-san has loved you this entire time."

No idea huh?

Kou slapped his shoulders. "Don't mind it Yu-Yu. He will eventually come around."

Eventually huh? But he doesn't like having even the smallest bit of friction amongst team members. Yuhi sighed deeply, 'I wonder what should I do about this matter?'

When they found Sumire again after she disappeared for two months. He thought Iwa Ran finally understood him, but it wasn't like that at all.

There has to be a way, but right now he couldn't think of one.

"Chiwassu." A familiar voice said disrupting his thoughts.

His gaze softened seeing his wife by the door. "Hey, you had work here?"

"More like I asked Hino if I could work here."

Yuhi laughed. "So you're openly stalking now?" 

"Correct." She sat down on his lap and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Mmm, dearest. I thought afterwards we could go shopping in the market. But you're busy today aren't you?"

"Well, I can always change my schedule."

"I'll wait even if it is late."

Sensing her meek tone, Yuhi frowned. 

"What's wrong?"

"Mmm, I'm just a bit frightened. But I think I will be fine after a while."

His eyes widened when he felt the girl tremble in his arms. 

"Jun, her schedule." He got a bad feeling from all of this.

"Already on it, she has a handshake event next."

Yuhi frowned when he heard the words handshake event. How could Hino possible assign her such a job when she barely managed to get on stage? This morning Sumire confessed to him that she only managed to get on stage yesterday because of him.
