"YUZURU! fighting!" Shine shouts loud. Nam and Javier turn around and they both have a who-did-that expression in their faces. Shine suddenly feel embarrassed by what she did and run as fast as she can to leave the ice rink but her heels are stopping her in doing so.
When she reach the reception she saw that Michael and Coach Brian are not there anymore.
"At least you can save yourself from another humiliation Shine. But why did you do that anyway?" Shine's inner self inquiry.
"Actually, I don't know? I think I am crazy!" Shine said to herself in disbelief on what she just did.
Shine enter her post; she feel hot and sweat is coming out of her body. She drink a cup of water to calm herself.
"Yes! You are totally CRAZY" Her inner self agree.
Shine pour herself another cup of water and drink it again. Suddenly, Mikka appear in front of her.
"Shine?"She said.
Shine put the cup down in the table as she is startled by Mikka's sudden presence.
"Mikka? What are you doing here?" Shine asked.
Mikka look at Shine and smile with her dark red, matte lips.
Shine scan Mikka's appearance and she can't find one flaw about her. Mikka is very beautiful as she is wearing bloody-red, stand collar with V neckline that give a off-the-shoulder illusion. It has a long bishop sleeves and a loose-flutter fit peasant blouse. She paired it with a dark colored denim skinny jeans and a 5 inches stiletto heels, making her to look taller. Her long black and shiny straight hair is loose neatly.
The insecurity Shine feel in front of Mikka is taking over her but luckily she really have a reason to stop Mikka from meeting Yuzuru.
"If you are looking for Yuzuru he is 'in' —practicing. And I don't think it's a good idea to disturb him right now" Shine hurriedly said.
Mikka look to the ice rink before looking at Shine again. Mikka releases a big smile —a smile with meaning behind it.
"Oh I see, but I am not here to see him, so don't worry! It's you that I really want to see" Mikka said.
"What does she wants?" Shine's inner self asked.
"Oh I see but I can't leave my post for at least the next hour" Shine say another excuse to her.
Mikka continue to smile at her. And Shine can tell that her smile mean something —Mikka can see Shine jealous.
"It's Okay! I just need to hand this to you" Mikka said and handed a small white enveloped to Shine.
"What is this?" Shine curiously asked. Though Shine is hesitant, she still take the enveloped.
Shine is about to open the enveloped to take a peek of what's inside, when Mikka stop her and hold her hands.
Shine is startled, her curiosity about the enveloped grow bigger as she see Mikka's reaction.
"No! Please, open it somewhere, where Yuzuru is not around. I am sure he will be mad at me when he find out about this" Mikka explained. Shine can hear a worried tone in her voice.
"O..kay..but what is it?" Shine repeat herself to Mikka.
"It's a gift" Mikka said with a smile to Shine.
Shine confusedly looked at Mikka.
"You are one lucky girl Shine! I hope you know that" Mikka said and smile. Mikka then left, leaving the curious Shine alone.
......
After the day in the club is over Yuzuru, Min and Shine walk home in silence. Yuzuru look at Shine from time to time as they walk. Shine notice his looked but she is too shy to look back at him because of what she did earlier.
When they reach the front of Shine's house Shine look at Yuzuru and shyly asked him in.
"Want to go inside?" Shine asked.
But Yuzuru politely refused.
"Thanks but No, I really need to leave soon too"
Though disappointed, Shine didn't allow Yuzuru to see that in her face.
"Oh I see..I think you should really have plenty of rest, since you fall a lot during practice earlier"Shine said and she lower her body to face Min.
"...Min you go ahead inside first" Shine ordered Min to go inside their house first.
Min nod to Shine and shift his look to Yuzuru.
"bye Yuzuru" Min politely said and bow his head.
Shine patted Min's butt and stand straight back.
"Bye Min see you tomorrow" Yuzuru said waving his hand to Min.
Once they see Min already enter the house, Yuzuru shift his look to Shine.
"I have something to give you" Yuzuru said and he search his body bag for something.
"What it is?"Shine curiously asked while she watch him search his bag.
Yuzuru smile indicating he finally found what he is looking. Yuzuru bring back his hand out from his bag and handed a bracelet to Shine.
"I can't accept it" Shine said refusing to accept the bracelet from Yuzuru.
Yuzuru hold Shine's hand and put the bracelet in her palm.
"I hope you wear this, it's everything to me" Yuzuru said in an ordering manner for Shine.
Yuzuru then look Shine in the eyes; the look that he has during his confession; the look that full of longing and love.
Shine just stand silently in front of him and waiting for Yuzuru to speak.
"Seeing you earlier with some guy —laughing, makes me realized that I don't want to see you with them; that I can't see you with them..."He said.
Shine look at Yuzuru with sympathy.
"Yuzuru, I am very touch that you do feel this way but you can't control me!" Shine said.
Yuzuru wave his hand in surrender.
"I am not controlling you, NO. But I just want the people to know that we are together now" He said shyly.
"We?...we?..since when? Yesterday? Today?" Her inner self confusedly said.
"But I haven't decided about it yet" Shine said instead.
"But the ki..." Yuzuru said looking straight in Shine's eyes.
"Stop..stop...What we did yesterday don't justify today..." Shine argue.
"But.." Yuzuru tried to say something again but Shine is faster.
"I need more time to think" Shine said not looking at Yuzuru.
Shine hear Yuzuru sigh.
Shine then compassionately looked at Yuzuru in the eyes.
"Why are you acting this way? Is it because of Michael earlier?" She asked softly.
Yuzuru didn't answer and just shyly stand in front of Shine —Yuzuru looked like a little boy being scolded by his mother.
Shine exhale and smile.
"You don't have to be jealous of him. He is just another figure skater to me; like Nam and Javi too. They make me smile and laugh but that's it. And beside, I don't like guys that are younger than me" Shine explain to Yuzuru and smile.
Yuzuru stay quiet but he finally feel more assured to hear Shine. Then, Yuzuru hold Shine's cold face with his hand.
"Sorry! If you feel that I am pressuring you, it's just that I like you... a lot, I think. Actually, I'm surprise to see myself being so possessive, maybe it's because I'm not used to this feeling. Plus, like I said to you before: I can't lost you again. But take your time, I don't want to force you, Shine" Yuzuru explain.
"thank you" Shine said.
"but I hope you'll choose me..." Yuzuru said with a smile.
Shine smile too and that time the misunderstanding between them is resolve.
"So, I think, I have to go now" Yuzuru then said.
"Don't leave yet" Shine's inner self said.
"Okay! and get plenty of rest. see you tomorrow" Shine said instead.
"Bye Shine!..dream of me"Yuzuru said loudly as he walk backward away from Shine. He did wink and smile flirtatiously to Shine. The happy Yuzuru is back.
