Nothing is Stronger than Love., Sarah Daniels [the ebook reader txt] 📗

"who's the cutie" the other boy asked "mind your own business Hayashi Yamashita" I said standing across from him "stop it boys" the teacher said coming over to us she stood just to the side of the mat near Louise "bow" she called out we each held our hands at our sides bending down at the waist keeping eye contact the whole time once we stood back up we both got into a fighting stance one foot back from the other and our hands raised in closed fists just in front of our faces "you know the rules this is only training so not enough for the need for hospital please I had enough of that from you two last year" she said we both nodded "fine then, fight" she called Hayashi was the first to throw a punch I ducked the side grabbing his wrist and pulling him forward making him lose his balance he growled and stood back up raising his fists again I thrust my fist forward but he pulled the same trick as I did rather than falling over like he did I stepped forward using that foot to push myself up into the air and over him with a straight hand I hit the back of his neck and kicked the back of his legs he fell to his knees with his head bowed "ready to give up already" I taunted "never I will not lose to you again Hiraga" he snapped standing he raised he leg straight out and spun around his heel hitting me straight in the jaw I fell to my knees clutching my jaw "Saito" Louise called "i'm fine it's just part of the training" I replied through gritted teeth I stood up again punching him in the stomach and raising my knee hitting him in the nose when he leaned over with some effort he straightened again he got behind me wrapping his arm around my neck I grabbed at his arm and managed to pry it away using it to flip him over my head I knelt down over him and placed my own arm against his neck "if you know what's good for you you'll stay down" I said he growled then sighed and nodded "I give up" he said raising his hands next to his head "why do you never attend any of the competitions" she asked "because I don't want to" I said going to get changed I came back a few minutes later and grabbed my bag "hey wait up" Hayashi called out "slowpoke" I called after him laughing "I thought you hated each other" Louise said clearly confused "they don't hate each other it's just easier for them to train with each other if they pretend to other wise they would just play around pretending to hit each other, so in fights they hate each other but in reality they're best friends" the teacher explained coming over to me with a form "no I already said I didn't want to" I complained "you two are this schools best fighters at least think about it Saito" she pleaded "if I enter 1 tornement will you get off my case about it" I asked "alright fine 1 championship and i'll drop it forever" she said I sighed and grabbed the entry form "fine i'll talk to dad about it though i'm sure he either put you up to it or will say yes" I muttered as Hayashi came back out dressed in his own uniform "so you never told me the name of your girl" he said "Louise Valliere" I said turning to Louise "what class do you have i'll drop you off" I offered "um home ec" she said confused "dad lied most of our classes are together" I said "the only one we don't have together is algebra great" I added sarcastically "what period does she have it" Hayashi asked "fourth" I replied wrapping my fingers around Louise's when she grabbed my hand "why do all the do all girls always go after him" I heard the other boys in school whispering while the girls were mostly glaring at Louise and putting forward whispers of their own "what's so special about her she completely flat and not even that pretty" I turned to face the girl who'd whispered that one "enough or I swear you will regret it so what i'm dating someone does not give you guys the right to be talking about her under your breaths unless you have something nice to say about Louise shut up" I snapped she looked shocked before nodding and looking away "what's going on out here" the teacher asked coming out of the class "nothing Miss nothing at all" I said heading to my class with Louise and Hayashi "you didn't have to do that Saito" she said quietly "I know I didn't have to but I hate bullies so I stand up to them when I hear them saying something bad about someone whether it has to do with me or not" I confessed softly "you know you're the first girl Saito's ever been serious with most of the girls in this school get to go out with him a couple of times before he dumps them" Hayashi said Louise hit my arm "ow what the heck was that for" I asked going into the classroom "don't know I just felt like it" she said shrugging "ah Miss Valliere is it" the teacher said "yes sir" she said looking at him "you'll be paired up with Mr Hiraga and Mr Yamashita okay" he said she nodded and followed me to the desk "does anyone know what's going on tomorrow" he called out no-one raised their hand although I already knew what "Mr Hiraga" he said "the Summer Cultural Festival sir" I said "correct so each person will be making one food that will be used tomorrow for it" he said smirking when most of us groaned Louise looked excited of course she did she hadn't cooked a day in her life "what are we supposed to make" she asked "not sure we get to choose what" Hayashi said to her "i've never eaten Japanese food before execpt last night at su-dinner" she said automatically correcting herself "supper wait your from England" he said I hadn't even thought of this coming up "yeah she's from England which is pretty far away so let's not worry about it and start cooking" I suggested "why don't we let Louise choose what to make" he said I nodded "have you two ever had...... sponge cake before" she asked we shook our heads she grabbed a spare piece of paper and quickly wrote the recipe down she passed it to us and we read it over both nodding "sure why not" I agreed smiling we worked in silence unless we need her help with something we were just putting the finishing touches on when the teacher said to finish what we were doing I heard a few groans so I figured they hadn't finished their things "done" Louise said wiping her fingers clean she glanced at me and giggled "you've got cream on your cheek" she said I wiped my hand over my cheek "wrong one" she said smiling I wiped the other "how is it possible you wiped your hand across your cheek but still missed it" she said reaching up and using her thumb to wipe it off I glanced away when she licked her thumb clean teasingly "whoa did the new girl make that" I heard someone mutter the teacher was walking around looking over everyone's stuff he stopped when he got to us "you made this" he asked us "it's something I used to have a lot at home so yeah" Louise said quietly obviously uncomfortable with the attention "very well you will all get a card with you grade at the end of class for not just do whatever" he said most of the kids suddenly came over to our bench asking Louise about the cake she refused outright to let anyone try any though "wait until tomorrow if you want some so bad" she said "alright everyone can take home what they made and i'll see you tomorrow" the teacher said handing out the grades I grinned when I seen a red A+ on ours "have I mentioned that I love you" I whispered leaning down to Louise's ear "maybe once or twice" she said closing her eyes and leaning back into me "hey Saito wanna walk home together" on of the girls asked "actually I am going to walk with my girlfriend" I said quickly grabbing my bag and Louise's hand and walking out thankful that's she'd already grabbed the cake it didn't take us long to get home "mom, dad, Azusa" I called out as we walked through the door "wait why were we allowed to go home early" she asked "everybody's getting ready for the festival so they don't have time to do much except the first few classes it was dad's rule back when I was in fourth grade do a few classes then you can go home just like tomorrow there will be no classes" I said spotting a note on the table "mom and dad are still at work and I went to a friend's try not to miss me too much love Azu" "my sister must have come home a little bit before we did" I said showing Louise the note "so we have to house to ourselves then" she asked I nodded she came closer to me and kissed me her fingers undoing my tie and a few buttons so she could slip her hands in spreading her fingers across my chest without breaking the kiss I picked her up bridal style and took her upstairs kicking my bedroom door shut behind us.

 

Azusa's POV

I hurried home having done what I wanted at my friend's place when I stepped through the door I heard silence but seen my brother's and Louise's shoes by the door "Saito, Louise are you home" I called out I pressed the button on the answering machine "hey kids your father and I won't be home till late tonight because of a couple of meetings heat up some leftovers and go to bed early" mom's voice came through the house "and Louise there's some clothes on Saito's bed for you to borrow if you sorry if they don't fit they used to be Azusa's things" she added before hanging up I raced upstairs and barged into my brother's room blushing like crazy and ducking back out noisly when I seen them in bed together not exactly asleep more like talking with no clothes on "Azu how many times do I have to tell you knock before you come into my room" Saito yelled coming out a few moments later with some pj pants on I glanced at Louise who was wearing his school shirt and had the blankets covering her legs she looked up at me and we both instantly blushed again and looked away "countless" I muttered "so why didn't you" he asked running a hand through his hair "well I wasn't exactly expecting you to be having sex" I shouted "go back to you own room" he groaned I stormed back to my own room hearing Louise laugh a few moments later mom and dad ended up being home a lot earlier than they thought which meant we all ate together making it very awkward for us kids the entire meal was spent blushing or avoiding gazes "Azusa, Saito will you to please do the dishes" mom asked "uh actually I have a ton of homework to catch up on from the time I was gone the sooner I get into it the better" Saito said quickly his cheeks going a deeper red "and I could do them on my own"
