Meeting Him

I had never thought I would meet someone so handsome, almost devil-like, but yet so off limits.

That day, I had ran away from home. I remembered my dad beating me with his belt, from pure rage, before moving on to Kaito, my older brother.

He tried to protect me. I remember the first time he hit me, Kaito rushed to save the day. Instead, he was beaten within an inch of his life.

And so, while Kaito distracted him, I ran.

I ran for hope.

I ran for life.

I ran to save him.

But when I had come face to face with the most gorgeous man in my life, I forgot about all that.

His sweet, baby blue eyes drawed me in, swallowing me within those deep pools.

When I came back to my senses, his warm hand pressed against my back, and his eyes were staring into mine with concern.

"Are you okay?" His voice was like melting chocolate.

"I-i... I don't know."

He darted his eyes to the alley way near us, before taking my hand and hurrying us over there.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

I glanced away, before lowering my gaze to the ground.

"No.. My brothers being beaten. He told me to find help.. He told me to run."

I blinked back tears, and the stranger gathered me in his arms.

"Don't worry.. Everything's going to be okay.."

He walked me to the cab that had just parked across the street, and ordered the driver to drive to a certain address.

"Your going to come with me, alright? I'll take care of you." He whispered from across the seat.

I nodded, and the last thing I remembered before I drifted off to sleep, were of someone pressing me against their chest and carrying me to a bed.

Warm rays of sunlight drifted in through the tall glass windows.

I peeked one eye open, to see I was tucked in plush scarlet sheets, before opening the other and propping my self up against the pillows.

I glanced around the spacious room, to see the man asleep on a gray couch across the room.

I was dressed in cute purple shorts and and a light gray t-shirt.

Did he dress me? I wouldn't mind it.. but isn't that an invasion of privacy?

I padded my way to what I hoped was a bathroom, before slowly opening the door.

Turned out, I was right!

I used the bathroom before peeking out the door.

The man was sitting up, in panic, for some reason.

I walked out, and his facial expression turned to one of relieved.

"Where were you? I thought you left me.." His voice sounded kinda sad.. like he missed me.

"I just went to use the bathroom.. and, uhm, who changed me?"

He smiled, before saying, "It was my sister, Chiharu, if that was okay."

I sat on the edge of the bed, before replying. "Its okay, but.. I still don't know your name.?"

He gives me a warm smile. "Its Akihiko, and what's yours?"

"Its Airi, and where am I?"

Hesitation appeared on his god like features, before a, " My mansion."

"Where's my brother? He needs help!" I tell him in panic.

"I was waiting till you had rest to go search for him, but if you want, we can go now?"

My answer was immediate. "Yes."
