R:VCP | The Red Strings Of Fate

In a rooftop of the University. A beautiful whitish silver haired girl, and a handsome red haired guy was having a leisure time drinking tea... Or so they thought.

*Silence~~~~~~*

'Is this what you called leisure!!!???'

Luna grittingly thought.

Why?

Oh, of course it is because in front of her was a certain handsome red haired guy leisurely drinking tea and staring...

Yes, a capital S T A R I N G.... at her.

For some certain people this might be called a leisure time.

And yes especially for the one who's staring, this might be a really leisure and relaxing thing, but sadly for the one being stared at... It is obviously not.

Sigh... Poor me. My life's starting to get haywire! And what's up with that!?

Why? Why!? Of course it's because of him! This, this!! This heterochroma guy!

This guy just took me without even telling me why. Even though I kinda know why but still I don't know why!? And what is his problem bringing me here and leisurely drinking tea!? I don't get him!

Secretly grinding her teeth, Luna took her cup of tea and politely sipped; ignoring the unmatched pair of eyes that was staring at her.

She acted like nothing was out of sort and asked with a cough., "Coughs. So, Mr. Al---"

"Just call me Alistair." He cutted with a slight smile.

Luna's mouth twitched before smoothly covering it with her practiced indifferent but polite smile.

"Alright." She continued., "So, Mr. Alistair why did you bring me here?"

Luna asked. She was confused especially since Alistair and her had never even properly meet before, and obviously both of the two are not so close.

So why the heck did Alistair brought her here.

Sitting lazily with grace and a slight prominent smile hanging in the corner of his lips Alistair answered.,

"Oh, I thought you already know Miss Luna?" A glint of mischievousness pass through his unmatched eyes.

Luna who was slightly overwhelmed and flustered didn't noticed and quickly answered back with an awkward laugh.,

"*Laughs* I... I, I apologize Mr. Alistair . But really. I really don't know what you mean." Luna sincerely and awkwardly explained but upon seeing Alistair's unchanging smile. She couldn't help but getting embarrassingly flustered.

Avoiding Alistair's unmatched eyes, Luna continued try to explain and reason... Which sadly in the end because of how flustered and embarrassed she was, she even end up ranting and grumbling the things she didn't even dared to say from the start; especially the things she only dared to say in her mind.

"Tut. In a matter of fact this was actually this heterochroma guy's fault. If only his hard like wall body didn't appear and caused me to slam to him. Then this wouldn't have happened! And now he is here actually abducting me for compensation!? I should be the one asking for compensation from the start!"

"*Grumbling* especially since my homemade chocolate was killed and crumbled to pieces by him!... Hmph. Such a douch--- !!!" Feeling the sudden change in temperature, Luna abruptly stopped the words she was about to say, realizing the craziness she just did!

Especially since she just remembered where she is and what situation she is in!

Looking back at the person which from the start didn't even made a sound. Luna couldn't help but have cold sweat.

' T_T *miserably cries* huhuhu... why did I forget this guy was still here?!!?'

In front of the rabbit like obviously frightened Luna, was Alistair. Which eyes was still usually bright and staring at her, posture which was still graceful and lazy as ever, and even that slight smile hanging in the corner of his lips.

The only difference from now and a minute ago was the sudden change of temperature.

Alistair, looking at the rabbit like obviously frightened Luna. Raised slightly his brows thinking helplessly.,

'Didn't this girl... Sigh, just awhile ago she was still bravely and shamelessly blaming me about me 'slamming my hard like wall chest' or so she say... And now? Sigh... *Helplessly laughs* why the heck she looks like a frightened rabbit? Huh..' Alistair was helpless and somehow was also a little gloomy.

Slightly bowing his head Alistair helplessly sighs; and when Alistair was about to look up and clear up the misunderstanding. He, Alistair inevitably glanced upon a red small pouch which was just beside Luna's cup and saw a crumbled...

... chocolate?

With a sudden idea appearing in his mind Alistair's mood suddenly improved.

In just a second Alistair already held the pouch by then and took a piece of the crumbled heart shape chocolate and ate it, and he even savored it, it was as if it was really meant for him. Seeing this all happening in front of her.

Luna, who was still so shocked silly, open and closed her mouth not knowing what to even say.

Alistair who was still savoring the homemade chocolate Luna made, saw Luna's every movement and change of expression in the corner of his eyes... Which in the end he almost laugh out loud, but held it at the last second.

Seeing Luna's open and close mouth expression, Alistair decided to tease her for a moment.

Alistair, who was still eating the remaining chocolates halted his movement, and put down the pouch in the table and looked at Luna; and innocently asked.,

"Want some?"

Which in return made Luna's ever changing expression broke and end up with an expression of like a person who tasted a sour citrus fruit. Her face crumpled.

And Alistair didn't stop himself anymore from laughing out loud.

"What??? Wait. What!?? Wait a minute. What are you even laughing at!?" Luna looking at Alistair's laughing visage. Wasn't able to hold her embarrassment and furiously reacted. "What are you laughing at huh!? And why the fudge are you even eating my chocolate!?"

Alistair seeing Luna's reaction forced himself to suppress his laughter then. And with an earnest expression he asked Luna. "Wasn't this supposed to be eaten?"

"..." Luna was speechless for a second, and tried to refute Alistair's words but still end up back to her open and closed mouth expression.

Luckily at the last second she was finally able to say a word. "You-- but this isn't for you." Finally able to find her lost confidence she proudly and confidently continued. "So in other words you can't eat this."

Luna raised her head and chest proudly thinking.,

'This heterochroma guy will definitely be embarrassed!'

But, poor Luna still playing with fire. Didn't she even learn her lesson yet? Even after those things that happened? The lesson that says.,

Never play with a bonifide human-demon... Especially if it's named Alistair.

Sigh... I can only say good luck to her right now.

But contrary to Luna's expectations, Alistair didn't even have... even a bit of ounce of embarrassment in his face. He was just there still looking- I mean staring unwaveringly at her, with that slight smile still intact and hanging in the corner of his lips. Alistair, was still there wearing his usual expression and leaning his head in his hand.

And in a moment after realizing Luna was already done with her supposed to be comeback. Alistair then raised his head properly, his unmatched eyes flickered and his smile deepened. Leaving Luna feeling a sudden chill in her back.

"Oh, so how about I compensate you Moo- *coughs* Miss Luna?" Alistair proposed.

(WhiteSunflowerS2: Ahh!!! Alistair did you just almost called Luna, Moonpuff!!??)

'What?' Luna didn't know why but hearing Alistair's proposal a sudden premonition came knocking on her.

Luna looked at Alistair alertly, like a prey holding its dear life.

Cautiously she opened., "What compensation?" Alistair's smile deepened more after seeing Luna like this.

'Ah... *Chuckles* Teasing Moonpuff's really fun.'

Alistair continued to look at Luna and pronounced his words ever so slowly and clearly., "I. Will. Compensate. You. Miss Luna..." And a matching smile appeared that made Luna dread the next words.

"No-- no, no thanks. You didn't need to---" Luna nervously and politely declined stammering. But Alistair only smiled more.

"No, Miss Luna I insist." Alistair countered.

'Huhuhuhu. ε(┬┬﹏┬┬)3 But I also insist!!!' Luna cried inside. "Mr. Alistair, but I really don't need compensation..." Luna pitifully opened.

Alistair only looked at her., "But I ate your homemade chocolate." Alistair said.

"No. No. It's fine, it's really fine. I don't mind." Luna stiffly smiled.

"Oh, but you said---" Alistair started but Luna cut him off. -No, no. It's really fine. You can have it, really. I really don't need it much." Luna insist.

'You can have the chocolate! Just let me go! ｡･ﾟﾟ･(>д<)･ﾟﾟ･｡'

Alistair looking at Luna's pitiful look decided to stop his teasing and go straight to the point.

"*Sigh* But, Miss Luna I can't really let this go." Alistair sincerely looked at Luna which made Luna more and more miserable.

Luna: (ಥ_ಥ)｡ *miserable*

Alistair looked at Luna's miserable face and endure the laughter that was about to come from his mouth. Seriously and sincerely continued., "So, as a gentleman... It's just right for me to compensate you."

'You call yourself a gentleman? (╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻ then I am Superman!' Luna furiously thought.

Alistair couldn't hear what Luna was thinking so he just continued., "So, as a proper lady and as the Student representative of this year... I hope you, Miss Luna, will give me some face."

Alistair ended it with a smile brilliantly plastered on his face.

'Can I say no? Of course not!! (╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻ did you see any question mark there!? No, right!?

Yup. This wasn't a question that needs my answer... This, was a statement that he ordered and I follow 'plot situation'!!! '

(╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻

(╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻

(╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻

There was a famous internet line that say 'You need to repeat it thrice, to show its important.' and I, Luna Sakura Smith needs three Kaomoji to express my innermost vex furious feelings right now!!!

"Miss Luna?" Alistair called out.

Luna finally came back to herself from her inner monologue. So with a blink of an eye the scattered and foolish expression on her face was finally hidden away again. With her polite and indifferent smile Luna looked at Alistair.,

"Of course Mr. Alistair, then I guess this lady here can only humbly accept your compensation then." Luna said politely, but thinking.,

'Hmph. You want to compensate me that badly right? Then I'll let you compensate me! Let this laozi[1] see the compensation gift you'll give me then, hmph!
( ‵▽′)ψ '

(WhiteSunflowerS2: Laozi means informal ' I ' or arrogantly title for yourself for example: This Laozi is beautiful than any other! : This " 'me', queen, great me, amazing me, Lord, awesome me, 'I' , and etc." is beautiful than any other! It is mostly used in CNovels)

Still acting proudly and arrogantly inside her own world Luna didn't notice Alistair's smile., "Well... That's good." After saying that Alistair then pulled something out in his school shirt's front pocket.

A small rectangular box. Opening it Alistair took the handmade bracelet inside and with only a lean on the table. Alistair easily grabbed and held Luna's white smooth pale hand and wear the bracelet to her.

After wearing it to Luna, Alistair smiled satisfyingly and leaned back in his chair.

Luna abruptly stopped from her day dreaming.

Luna: (⊙ˍ⊙)

Luna: ('･ω･')?

Feeling something isn't right.

Luna: (¯∇¯٥)

She tilted her head down.

Luna: (。_。)

Looking at her right hand which was now tied with a bracelet.

Luna: (-ω- ?)

What?

Luna: =͟͟͞͞(꒪⌓꒪*)

Then realization hits her.

Luna: Σ(ﾟ口ﾟ;

'What the heck is going on!!???'

Luna:（⊙＿⊙；）*cold sweat*

Realizing this isn't seem to be in the plot Luna looked at Alistair with a smile that Is even far more ugly than crying.,

Luna: (Ｔ▽Ｔ)･

Alistair: ('ᴖωᴖ｀)

"What is this?" Luna pitifully asked.

Alistair smiled., "A bracelet."

'(Ｔ▽Ｔ)･ I know what this is!!
(╯'□')╯︵ ┻━┻ I'm asking what is this for!???' Luna continued to held her smile and asked again.,

"Yes, I know. What I mean is why am I wearing this?" '(Ｔ▽Ｔ)･

" 'cause you have a hand" Alistair answered a matter of factly. Luna was furiously speechless.

"But, why do I need to wear this?"

"Why, can't you wear it?" Alistair questioned back.

"No, I mean Yes, wait. What?" Luna was confused. "I mean yes, I can wear it. But, my question is why did you gave this to me?" Raising her hands Luna showed the bracelet.

Alistair just smiled, and with his most utmost seriousness he answered., "Com.pen.sa.tion."

Luna blankly looked at Alistair for a moment and thought.,

'This wasn't the compensation I visioned!!'

Alistair looking at Luna who's face twitching. Decided to act. Alistair frowned slightly and acted hurt and hesitating.,

"You don't like it? If so, I can just change it... I can buy another one if you like." Luna seeing Alistair like this was unknowingly embarrassed.

"No, no. It's not that---" Alistair didn't let her continue.,

"Actually I understand. The bracelet wasn't really that great, right? *Sigh* I know... Even Mr. Tatchi himself said so."

'Wait what? Mr. Tatchi!? Don't tell me this bracelet??' "No that's not----"

"Well, mine is really not that great. Even I know that..."

"No listen to----"

"Sigh.. I know It from the start that this thing no one would even want---"

"Mr. Alistair---"

"But I still insist---'

"Mr. Alista---"

"It's fine.. they were actually right---"

"Mr. Al-----"

"That Jacob guy was right---"

"Mr.---"

"I'm really am----"

"ALISTAIR!!!!!!!!!"

Luna was furious. That she even slammed the table just to stop this guy from talking about annoying rubbish. Alistair who was just a second ago still acting... Was now looking at Luna, seemingly surprised. But, the slight raise of his lips betrayed him.

Luna, breath in and out. Calming herself, after calming down she then sat back down to her seat. Looked at Alistair and said.,

"It's beautiful." Luna raised her hand and showed the bracelet to Alistair and sincerely repeated. "It's really beautiful."

Alistair looked at Luna and was about to say something but Luna cut him. "Actually this is really beautiful. More beautiful than the luxurious bracelet in the jewelry stores." Afraid that Alistair would still doubt her words Luna continued.

"Really, I'm not lying. Actually this is really charming and suit my taste. Especially I like stars and moon, and it really does have some."

"If you don't believe me, then here look at my hair, see? This. Isn't it silverish white?" Luna raised her hands again and show off her hair fearing Alistair won't still believe. Alistair on the other hand was amused at Luna's childishness. But didn't stop her, and continued listening to her.

Luna was busy cheering up Alistair, that she didn't notice Alistair who was already smiling and amused at her. Each words she say, and explanation she explained. She didn't notice that she, was long gone telling Alistair about herself.

"Well it's because they say that the moon blessed me. That's why I have a hair like this. And oh, if you noticed that my name is Luna right? Luna which means moon. Then Sakura... Well.. I think Sakura was for the tingy pink in the ends of my hair....."

"I actually also like cherry blossoms not only because of my name was Sakura. Actually I don't why but I found myself really, really liking it......"

"Did you hear about the legend of the fountain? Before I really........"

"My parents and I isn't really....."

"My hobbies isn't really that many you can just count it......."

"I'm not really that athletic but I really like......"

"You know I really don't like that guy named......"

"It's really scary being hunt down by the girls....."

"Actually I really don't like......"

A guy who was just finished with his work and just went out...

A girl who was only supposed to run away from her pursuers...

A guy who made a handmade bracelet.

A girl who made a handmade chocolate.

A guy who have been fallen into...

A girl who have fallen...

A guy who ate the girl's handmade chocolate...

A girl who wore the guy's handmade bracelet...

Now they're talking with each other.

Now they're together.

The red strings of fate is making its way to them again...

Tying them again once more...

Will history repeat itself again?

Or would they finally have their happy ending?

Can they finally defeat Fate?

Can they finally outrun Time?

Can they finally hide from Death?

No one knows...

No one...

really...

knows...
