LOVE IS YOU
In The Previous Chapter . Rei and Yuta apologise to each other and become friends and start knowing about each other more.
Suddenly , Yuta's bandmates start finding changes in his behaviour... is it possible due to him having developed feelings for Rei? On the other hand , Rei too seems to be in her dreamland. What's going on? ...keep reading.
It was 12am and it was pitch dark outside ,except for the area where the streets lights were on, also it was very silent. Yuta was still awake and was writing a lyric in his room until when he heard the sound of tapping footsteps and then he heard the sound of a door being unlocked. He assumed it was Rei herself but he didnt give a chance so he went to open the door and then noticed Rei struggling with her shopping bags and trying to open the door.
"oh.. Tamamori-san....what are you doing awake at this time?" she asked widening her eyes in shock.
"I heard some noise coming from out , so i decided to check out who it was... but it turned out to be you " he said shaking his head.
"Haha I am sorry , I was out shopping till midnight and my friend had her night shift job so i had to come here all alone at this time .." she said rubbing the back of her head.
"Sou ,...ka.." Yuta said.
"And i guess i mixed up the keys with my friend's and landed up bringing hers instead of mine ...Do you think they'll have spare keys?" she asked him sighing.
"Oh Gosh... and .. I guess not. I dont think they have double keys" Yuta replied.
"Oh... Then i'll head back to Shibuya where my friend is working... I'll leave my bags here. Could you please take care of them for me till i come?" she replied as she placed the bags gently onto the floor except her backpack which she was going to take along with her.
"Sure ~ " he replied to her opening the door to his apartment room fully and then gently placing her bags inside.
"Jaa ne ~ I have to catch a train asap" she said turning back and walking towards the staircase.
"Choutto.... Matte.... " Yuta said.
"Haii? Doua?" Rei asked witha surprised look.
"Choutto ... don't go... Its not safe at this time..." he replied.
"I cant possible wait out in the cold can i?" said Rei with a laugh.
"You can , stay over at my place...and text your friend to come with the keys the next day..." he replied with a flustered look.
"What?" Rei asked blankly.
"Umm... I mean... you can stay here until morning and ask your friend...." Yuta faltered.
"oh... I understand you... but .. why ?" Rei asked him.
"Its not safe for you to go out at this time...that too alone" He replied looking down.
"I am afraid... I cannot " Rei said.
"Alright... if its okay with you ... then you may go alone..." he replied.
Suddenly Yuta and Rei heard a loud rumbling sound outside. Yuta went near the window to see what was happening and saw that it was raining outside. Rei too, peeked outside and noticed the raindrops falling on her glasses.
"Its raining and I dont even have an umbrella... What do i do now? " Rei sighed.
"I guess you have no other choice now ~ but to go to your friend next morning..." Yuta said rubbing the back of his neck.
"Sou desu" Rei replied.
Rei thanked Yuta as she entered his apartment room. It was as fine enough. It had everything in it a small kitchen partition , a bedroom partition , an LCD and a guitar hanging on the wall along with a picture. Rei stood looking at the picture for a while and remembered the faces she had seen on the signboard the same morning. Yuta noticed her looking curiously at the picture and walked towards her.
"They're my bandmates ~ they're really nice guys " he said to her and then looked at the picture.
"I remember seeing all of you on the signboard at the Station this morning " Rei replied tugging a smile.
"ah... maybe they put up a new one" he said smiling back.
"I see ~ You all look so happy here " she said to him looking at the picture.
"Yeah ~ we all had fun that day hanging out" he replied taking a deep breath.
"you all knew each other before being a band?" Rei asked him curiously
"Nop ... We were in the same Jr Unit... we trained together... we grew up together " He replied looking at her.
Yuta looked at Rei who was curiously looking at the photos of his bandmates and him hanging on the wall. Her face was halfway lit by the night lamp and the other part of her face shone due to the moonlight coming out of the window near which she stood. He stood there gazing at her as she gently tucked the stray strands of hair falling on her cheeks back behind her ear. Rei noticed him gazing at her and she looked back at him and smiled.
"OMG.. I have to go to Ruka-chan's place!" Rei said as she realised that she had to reach Ruka's place to get back her keys.
"Yuta-kunI'm sorry for leaving without informing you but I didnt want to disturb you as well.Thank you for taking care of me.Here is a Thank you gift for last nightTake care of yourself ....and Window-san
Rei"
