Chapter 8: Karlheinz's Plan

~Yumi Sakamaki~

Finally, class is over...That teacher just always babbles about the production of blood tablets and it is just so boring. I got my books together and prepared to leave back to the Moon Dorms. When I looked out the window, I saw that drops of rain were falling from the night sky.

"Oh goodness...I do not like the rain.." I said to myself.

"Then I'll cover you."  A voice stated from behind. I looked back and there was Ruki.

"Oh, you don't have to, that is..." Ruki then pulled my hand and I followed him. We walked through the quiet hallway as we heard the drops of rain falling, hitting the roof of the building.

"Think of this like old times. When I first found you under a tree crying on that rainy night. However, I have a question. Why don't you like the rain?" Ruki asked.

We then stopped, and I looked down embarrassed.

"It is sticky and wet.. And it messes up my hair." I quietly stated.

Ruki began to laugh.

"Really? That's it? You know you can fix your hair any time and take a shower." He said.

"Still, I do not like it. However...it reminds me of the first night we met, which kind of makes me like it in a way..." I said with a slight blush.

Ruki smiled, and took off his white blazer and put it over both our heads.

"You ready, Yumi? You better run fast and try to catch up." He said with a smirk.

"You too." I said with a smile.

Then Ruki hit the door with his foot and he and I left the building, running in the rain.

I started to laugh.

"Why are you laughing, Yumi?" Ruki asked.

"Because I am having so much fun!" I said happily.

Then I ended up tripping over a rock and Ruki flipped around, having himself take the impact, and I end up hovering over him.

"R-Ruki.. Are you ok?" I asked worriedly.

He chuckled.

"Yes, I am, but you're making me get the wrong idea, even though I do like being in this position..." I noticed that my hands were on his chest, and my eyes were looking straight down at him.

"O-oh! I'm sorry!"

I quickly got up.

"U-um... We should.. get back to the dorms... Everyone will get worried." I added nervously.

I then heard rumbling from the sky. Oh no... I hate thunder and lightning. I've always hated it, ever since I was a child. When lightning struck, I quickly embraced Ruki.

"You haven't changed at all, Yumi." Ruki said, putting his arms around me.

I'm so embarrassed.. I'm seventeen years old and I still have a fear of thunder and lightning.

"Don't be embarrased, sweetheart." Ruki said as he caressed my cheek.

"Ruki...." I whispered.

"Come on, let's go back." He stated.

The thunder then hit louder. I quickly hugged Ruki.

"I am still scared, Ruki..." Ruki then chuckled and then carried me in his arms, and I quickly closed my eyes tightly and put my head in his chest.
