Sumire's thoughts broke seeing that indeed the omelet she was cooking was already done. But that wasn't what startled her, it was how close Yuhi suddenly was. "R--right."

"Gee, what are you doing spacing out for?"

Or rather when did he get so close? This distance isn't good for anyone's heart at all. She lets out a relieved sigh when he moved away to get a drink from the fridge. Take a deep breath…

She heard that the nurses taking care of the private ward patients would not be back till nightfall due to an emergency case elsewhere. When she learned that, she came here before she could even think it through.

The truth is she had some work left to do. But when she realized that nobody else would be here, the brown-haired girl didn't want to leave Yuhi here all alone. Though he can probably cook…he did make her porridge when she was sick.

She knew that if she left him alone, he probably wouldn't eat properly. In his place there was nothing but drinks after all. He doesn't eat me very much.

Sumire flipped the pan over and it landed on the plate. She placed the other stuff on the tray and made her way over to the table, and arranged the food. She just needs to get the drinks.

"Sandwiches too?" Yuhi said from beside her.

Sumire managed to remain calm enough to respond this time. "Yeah, we ran out of rice. Do you not like them?"

She ended up bringing supplies from home.

Yuhi took his seat opposite her. "No, it's fine." He trails off. "What is in them?"

"Let's see this is egg salad and this is croquettes …"

"Sounds like you did a lot."

She flinched slightly at his words. Did he find out? No, it can't be. Remain calm.. Calm.

"We just happened to have some leftovers lying around,"Sumire said with a sheepish laugh. Yeah right, there's no way she's going to admit that she planned this from the start. She bought the ingredients the moment the supermarket opened so it was fresh.

She was awake before anyone else and even Atushi questioned why she woke up so early. Uwaa, he definitely noticed it. It really is embarrassing, doing something like this. Even going through all the trouble of deep frying the croquettes…

For awhile now she wanted to do something for him. To be able to express her gratitude in some way. She knew this was a pretty cheap way of doing it but it was indeed better than nothing.

"How come you're not eating?"

"Oh um…I feel full just looking at them." Sumire lied. It was obviously a lie. Since earlier she felt a bit strange around Yuhi.

She already knew the reason why. Earlier she remained calm but she felt embarrassed that somebody caught her and Yuhi like that. No the kissing aside, the state of the room. She ought to clean up whenever they leave this room for a moment. If Hino saw that, what did the nurses who came by think?

No no no,get a hold of yourself.

"Rice." Yuhi didn't look at her as he was talking, his gaze fix on the paper as he ate. "Guess we could buy some more today."

"Eh?" Sumire blinked when she heard those words. Did he just say we?

"I have to return to the school and help out."

Yuhi chuckled at her words. Its almost like he knew she was trying to avoid being left alone with him. "But the school wont let you stay out for long. What is the max time?

"At 6 but…"

"Got it. I'll be at the gate by six thirty." Yuhi said as he licked the sauce of his finger

She couldn't help but avert her gaze. "You should rest."

"I would but this is too good of an opportunity. Why would I miss out on a chance to have a date with you?"

"But your legs.." Sumire trailed off. "Even if the doctor said that I am still worried."

Yuhi suddenly stood up and she watched as he clumsily made his way over to her. It was only a short distance so she could not tell if it affected his movement or not. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his arms.

He brushed his lips against her ear. "Should we test it out? Whether my legs are healthy or not?"

At his words Sumire flushed red, her cheeks grew hot. This feels so stupid. Why does she get flustered over everything he says? Usually, she is the one in control. Ever since her relationship with Sano failed badly. Sumire realized one thing about guys. Despite what they say they dislike submissive and weak girls. They don't like girls who pretend to be strong either.

She never complained in front of Sano before, she always kept her problems to herself. But the few times she confided in him, he made it clear to her that she was the problem. He made all her worries and fears seem insignificant and small in contrast to his needs.

Yuhi gently kissed her earlobe and a content sigh passed her lips. "Yuhi.."

"I want to spend some time with you, please allow me to."

"But I…"

He silenced her with a soft kiss. "You don't want to be with me?"

How sly and unfair of him. If he says it like that, how could she possibly say anything else? Sumire did not say a word and rested her head on his chest and she felt Yuhi ran his hands through her back. It seems like she is gradually becoming more obsessed with this person.

When they first started dating, Sumire was not sure whether or not it would work out. After all Terashima Yuhi completely differs from all those other guys. Actually he is the type of guy she normally would not date. Her type before were guys like Sano, the perfect and typical prince charming type.
