Only you

Chapter 32

CHAPTER 32

Yuzu made her way to the kitchen after reading the note that Mei had left.

Her eyes widened as she saw the raven haired girl placing some food on the table that was romantically set for two.

"Mei?"

Mei jumped in her spot as she heard Yuzu's voice. Turning to look at her blonde lover Mei couldn't stop the instant blush that spread across her face.

"Yuzu, you're awake."

Mei shuffled nervously in her spot as she held eye contact with her lover.

Yuzu slowly made her way over to Mei. The usually calm, headstrong student council president was never one to show nervousness but Yuzu could clearly see that Mei was uncharacteristically a shaking nervous wreck.

"Mei, what's with this?" Yuzu held the piece of paper up towards Mei and recited the words written on it.

"Yuzu, come to the kitchen when you're ready. I love you."

Yuzu then gave Mei a confused look as she continued to speak.

"I'm not saying I don't like you showing affection, but it's just out of character for you and after last night...."

Yuzu's cheeks flushed red as she thought of all the things she and Mei did the night before.

"You didn't like last night?" Mei watched Yuzu closely as she spoke and waited for Yuzu to respond.

"I loved it!" Yuzu quickly answered back as her face darkened.

Taking in a few breaths Yuzu tried to recompose herself before she spoke again.

"Normally, I'm the lovey dovey one in this relationship. I just want to make sure that everything is alright, you kinda have me worried here, Mei."

Yuzu looked eagerly into her lover's eyes as she waited for Mei to speak. But the words that left Mei's mouth made Yuzu's heart skip a beat and nearly stop.

"Actually, everything is not ok Yuzu. There is something I need to ask you."

Yuzu was at a loss for words and just stood there, conflicted, looking straight into Mei's beautiful violet orbs. All of the worse case scenarios started running through her mind. 'What if she says she doesn't want to be together anymore? Or she doesn't love me anymore?' Yuzu was brought out of her thoughts as she heard Mei say her name softly.

"Yuzu."

Mei took a couple of steps forward and grabbed Yuzu's hands. Without breaking eye contact Mei tried to swallow the lump in her throat before she finally summoned the courage to speak again.

"You have always shown me how much you love me, but I haven't done anything for you."

Yuzu squeezed Mei's hands as she quickly disagreed, "That's not true Mei, you have done a lot for me."

Mei stood quietly as she stared deeply into Yuzu's eyes. All she could see in the blonde's eyes were sincerity and love.

"Thank you Yuzu. I really wanted last night to be perfect and I was meant to cook dinner but I didn't get home till late. So, I hope breakfast is ok." Mei shuffled her feet and despite feeling a bit nervous she smiled.

Yuzu looked over the food again. The meal Mei prepared really did look delicious. Mei was never good at cooking so Yuzu quickly looked around the room to see if Bella was hiding somewhere. But she confirmed it was only the two of them.
