No, You're Not

Yukiko was woken up by the smell of a food cooking. Getting up from her bed, she stared at the wall for a minute before deciding to take a shower and change. When she went on the kitchen downstairs she was welcomed by the sight of a man wearing a casual attire consisting of a pale blue shirt and drawstring pants looking so hot even if he's topped with a pink polka dotted apron. On the head lay his messy hair that he didn't even bother to comb, just seeing his back view you can easily determine that he's a handsome guy...with that strong build of his, tall height, those broad shoulders that is really comfortable to lean on. Yukiko subconsciously sighed in contentment

However her bubble was burst when she heard that familiar teasing tone of his "Done admiring me, Yuki-chan?"

When she came to her senses he was already looking at her with a grin on his face. Realizing that she was caught red handed, she flushed furiously before turning her head away and just decided to sit on a stool next to the kitchen counter fiddling with her fingers. She was too embarrassed to face him, knowing that she was caught staring at him

Junshirou's day immediately brightened seeing Yukiko plus her blushing face made his day become even more brighter! 'Sigh, you're just too cute....you should be aware of your reactions or else you'll never know the consequences'

Actually he already sensed her presence even before she could reach the kitchen, plus her piercing gaze didn't really escaped his senses. And instead he just let her admire him from behind. Sensing that she's been standing there for a full minute he decided to burst her bubble...then she blushed, which irked the urge of him kissing those cute pink pouty lips of hers but he controlled himself. The way she awkwardly walked towards the stool and the fiddling of her fingers made her look like a child who was guilty for stealing a candy....which he labeled as him.

Pushing away those thoughts, he arranged the food on a plate before pushing it over to her. Seeing her hesitate for a moment he urged "Eat"

Grabbing the fork she cut off the omelette before stabbing it and she put it in her mouth. Chewing slowly her eyes brightened at it's heavenly taste "How could a simple omelette taste so good!" she regained her energy and started eating fast

"I'm glad Yuki-chan liked it, of course it taste heavenly because it is made with love from your dear hubby~" He internally sighed in relief by seeing her reaction towards the food he made especially for her, as this was the first time he cooked.....never knew that he had a talent on cooking. She didn't even react on his words anymore as she was too focused on eating her delicious meal

"Eat slowly Yuki-chan, the food's not going to run away"

She looked up from her food, seeing that he's not eating but only drinking coffee she asked, "Where's yours? You should eat too" she said after swallowing the mouthful of food

"Don't worry Yuki-chan I only drink coffee at morning"

"How can I not worry, coffee doesn't bring you any nutrients so you should eat a breakfast too!" she said passing him half of her omelette "Don't worry I didn't touched that side"

His heart skipped a beat, he never knew she cared for him that way, he smiled gently at her before picking up the fork she used and started eating "I don't care even if you've touched it, as long as it's Yuki-chan's" he delightfully said. She could only blush in embarrassment

"as long as you like it then..." His eyes widened by what she said and his heart started beating rapidly on his chest the fork that was hung midair fell back to the plate. Lowering his head he held his chest where his heart was placed as if in pain. Seeing his reaction, Yukiko was panic stricken "W-what's wrong? Junshirou!?"

She couldn't see his expression at all for his head was lowered, making her become more worried. Before she could make her move his head moved, looking up at her face, their eyes met. Now it was her turn, Yukiko's heart skipped a beat and her face grew warmer. Gosh how could he look so hot just by looking up at me!? His eyes held a tinge of happiness and there's a hint of blush on his cheeks.

They stared at each other for a moment before she heard him speak. "How could you be so cruel, Yukiko" hearing her name roll out of his lips made her heart beat so fast and there are butterflies running in her stomach. Never did once, that she thought of her name sounding so good to hear from someone— but hearing him say it, feels like she's listening on a lullaby. Her head is in mess, she can't understand her feelings anymore...could it be love? Why does she feel her heart skip a beat every time she sees him looking at her with that gentle smile of his. She once have read something on a book that says if a person is in love they could feel like there are butterflies on their stomach, and their heart beats fast just by the mere presence of that person...is that how she feel right now? No...it couldn't be right? They just met each other last 2 weeks how could she develop such feelings for him that fast? Besides...even if he sweet talks her, could it be just an act only? So she couldn't feel insecured? She doesn't know how he feels about her yet so even if she'll realize her feelings for him, she can't confess it yet.

Watching her changing expressions from confused to contemplating, from disbelief to disappointment made him chuckle in amusement. Really, this woman never failed to amuse him, ever since the day where he saw her getting mad about the arrangement of their marriage until now, made his interest and feelings for her grow. She's really full of surprises, add that cute expressions of hers. Deciding that now is not the right time to speak he could only pat her head to calm her down

...

Yukiko was thankful that they didn't have to attend the same school, afraid that someone might find out about their relationship and spread rumors. She touched the wedding ring that was attached on a silver chain and was hiding underneath her shirt. She grew quite fond of this ring and she felt uncomfortable not wearing it....but couldn't think of any other way to hide it from the school so Junshirou bought her a silver chain so she could just wear it around her neck

Their homeroom teacher came and greeted them good morning, they sat down before she spoke."Today class we're having a new student that transferred from XXX high school"

'hmmm that's a familiar high school...isn't it where Junshirou attends?' she thought not looking up from her desk, she leaned on her palm. Soon footsteps were heard from outside before the door was slid open. The room was silent for a moment before it erupted with the girls' shrieks and squeals

"Kyaaa!!~~ So handsome!!!"

"So handsome!~ Gosh, my nose is bleeding!!~~"

Their homeroom teacher have had a hard time silencing them, Yukiko felt a piercing gaze on her. She looked up from her desk and was shocked that she fell off her seat scraping her knee "W-w-w-what..." She didn't know what to say as the boy walked up to her and held his hand out. Yukiko came out from her shocked state "Are you alright, Aihara-san? You should go to the infirmary. You'll be excused" the homeroom teacher asked, before she could gesture for a student to help her she said "I'm fine, sensei" standing up she swept off the dust on her skirt.....only to be picked up by the boy and was carried bridal style out of the room "No you're not"

Flustered she said "I can walk on my own" a finger was placed on her lips "Shhh, keep quite Yuki-chan you don't want the school know about our relationship hm?" he whispered. When they arrived at infirmary he sat her down the bed and started gathering materials for cleaning the wound as the nurse was out and no one could assist them. After sitting himself in front of her and started cleaning her wounds she asked "What are you doing here, what if they find out about our relationship? I don't want others to start spreading rumors about us"

"Don't worry honey no one would find out" he finished cleaning her wound then put up a band aid on it "Don't call me that, what if...." again, she was silenced by his finger on her lips

"It's not like we're going to shout to the whole school that we're married, we could just pretend that we knew each other as childhood friends" her face softened "fine"

"Is it really that bad to be married with me...."

Hearing him she froze for a bit before responding with a smirk "Nope! The truth is, I like it" He was stunned, seeing him distracted she took the opportunity to escape but before she could get away a strong force made her fall on his lap and she was caged in his strong arms "Yuki-chan, getting bold now aren't we?" he whispered on her ear making her shiver from his warm breath "L-let go..." she struggled only for his hold to be tightened. She pinched his arms causing it to loosen so she pried it off, but before running away she turned and sticked her tongue out to him

Junshirou chuckled before getting up 'you're just too cute my dear wife'

Ever heard of a butterfly that is running?
