Capítulo 20: I love you
Author's note: I know it's a little cringe but what love story isn't?
I think I fucked up. From what he said, I think I can expect some motherfucking devil army following me. In that moment, when he mentioned Akeno, I lost it completely. I was just like those guys on hangover who wake up with new boobs and tigers in the bathroom. What do I do? Should I just escape to the Vatican? No way, too far, they would catch me before. I need some place in the country that is not in a really friendly relationship with the devil. Someone who would appreciate a senjutsu master. Like the yokai in Kyoto. If I show enough talent for them to shelter me, probably I could avoid the danger until the peace treat. Maybe after they will forgive me. I really hope so. I really hope they don't have some magic to trace the killers of their young master. Fuck you Diodora. You just made me accept a chain quest. Who knows how many old monsters has a family of literally long lived devils. Good. Now that I have a plan, I need to make sure they won't be able to find my parents. To do that I will need someone to erase my existence from the city. Only two people I know are capable of that. And the only one who would not betray me now, is Akeno.
So after school I took her in a corner, away from everyone, to talk. I really did not know what to say.
"Akeno-senpai, I need you to do something for me?" I said.
"W-What?" She said, fidgeting.
"I need you to erase all the memories of my existence in this city." She was really shocked when I said that.
"WHY? Why would you want that?" She raised her voice. I have not seen her so angry.
"I have done something that will make me a target for really powerful beings. I cannot tell anything to you, because I do not want to endanger you too. Before escaping, I need to make sure my parents don't suffer for my stupid decisions. Please, you are the only one I can ask this." I said, bowing my head.
"What about me then? Who is going to erase you from my head?!" She screamed desperately.
"Maybe Rias can help you. I'm sure she can do something." She said with eyes who were losing focus.
"Akeno! You know that I would have asked her if it was so simple. Please, don't make it too difficult."I said while grasping her shoulders. I was not using honorifics but none was in the mood to notice something like that.
"Why? Why, do you want to abandon me?! Please, don't leave me!" She said crying. I've never seen her crying. It really broke my heart seeing her break like this, and the worst was that I was the cause for it.
"Don't worry. I will never abandon you. I just need to hide myself for some time." I said while embracing and comforting her. "How could I? I have a lot of techniques that I want to see you reproduce?" I said smiling.
"Only that?" She said while looking me directly in the eyes. "Only training with me? Do you not want to do something else?"
"Of course. Just talking with you is a blessing for me." I said without thinking. In that moment she grasped the collar of my uniform and kissed me. It was my first kiss. It felt a little salty, but in that moment I felt happy. It was in that moment that I realized that I had fallen in love with this woman. Maybe, that was the reason I hated so much Issei. I did not want to admit it, because honestly I thought that she maybe would have been happier with someone else. After all, I did make her revive her trauma during our first meeting. This kiss was the last straw. I did not care anymore. I loved this woman.
"Are you sure, you want to be with me? I hurt you during our first meeting." I said.
"It has to be you. I hated you before. After you talked to me I wanted to know you better. Slowly, training together, eating together and just talking to you I felt myself more and more drawn to you, Kurokawa Haru. I love you." In that moment I kissed her too.
"I love you too, Akeno. I'm sorry it took me so much time to realize it." I said.
"You better be. " She said, smiling a little.
After an eternal instant losing our self in each other, I asked her again and finally managed to convince her. She wanted to come with me, but she gave up after I told her that I would go to Kyoto. Devils were not that much welcome there without some pass. She said me to find someone called Himejima Suzaku if I found someone of the five families. Apparently it was her cousin and the only one who loved her from that family. I thanked her, embraced her again as if to engrave her smell in my mind and kissed her one last time.
"Don't betray me with some other woman in Kyoto." She said smiling a little dangerously. If she can smile like this, then she will be fine, I thought.
"Of course, after all, there is no one better than my Akeno." I smiled back, making her become red like a tomato.
After that I went to say goodbye to Asia. As for her I think she will be fine with Rias and Akeno. She was a little sad for the goodbye too, but still smiled back to me and hoped me good luck. She is a really good girl. Makes me feel a little better the thought tha Diodora won't be able to touch her anymore.
I took everything I owned. Nothing, actually. Just some money and clothes. And went for Kyoto, hoping it would not bite me in the back this decision.
