Description
Cecil Aijima had forgotten that being human means, has feelings and be empathic. After leading his life as a cat, he used to be perched in the trees and rest the whole day there, admiring the beautifiul garden of the Saotome Academy. He noticed that Haruka was talking with Masato, who has acquired the inspiration for acting basing on Haruka’s confidence. Cecil wasn’t stupid, he could see whole scenery.
Masato feels something for Haruka, the same or even more than Cecil could feel. The difference is that Cecil could confess her feelings without keep to him or feel embarrassed, but Masato can’t.
Once, Masato had finished to talk with Haruka, Cecil was thinking about a plan: erase the competence. If Masato can’t confess his feelings, Cecil would do it for him. Thus, Haruka would know that Masato feels something for her and she would become disappointed because Masato isn’t enough brave to confess his feelings about her.
“What’s going on Masato? Are you afraid about being rejected by Haruka? Do you have afraid about the future of your answer?” Cecil started the conversation.
“It’s not about that, Aijima”, he answered, “Anyway is not of your business”
“So, it wouldn’t bother you that I could reach Haruka and tell everything that you have to say, even better, I can confess those feelings about you feel embarrassed I can confess those feelings that makes you feel abashed and we can see how she reacts” Cecil proposed ironically to Masato
“I won’t allow you to do it” Masato answered furiously to Cecil.
With all his strengths, Masato tackled Cecil as a football player, Cecil lost his equilibrium and both fell for the hill.
What happened? My head hurts a lot. Masato was thinking while he try to open his eyes.
Immediately, he stand up and he searched Cecil, he found him, unconscious.
Is he dead, It couldn’t be, I killed him, this is an accident, I didn’t want to… Guilty phrases went through around Masato’s mind like fast car traffic. You must check if Cecil is still breathing. The voice of reason talked.
Masato approached to Cecil’s body, he noticed that Cecil was still alive, but unconscious. What could I do? If he ain’t hurt then I must evite him to go anywhere. He thought.
He looked both sides, the despair was suffocating him. Finally, he saw the Gardener’s cabin which is empty for the weekends. He took Cecil on his back and he took him until the cabin.
Once there, he found the gardener’s bed and he placed Cecil like any person who is sleeping.
What else? What else? He will wake up anytime. What I can do for him not to go after Haruka?Masato looked around the room, then at Cecil, who didn't look as if he would wake up anytime soon. Masato found a coil of white rope that looked like it should be used for curtains. The rope gave him an idea - it was something he'd never think about doing, normally, but the rope should be enough.
He turned Cecil around, pushed up the sleeves of Cecil's beige sweater and started by tying his wrists together, quite tightly Once he finished tying up the wrists, he decided to bind his elbows to chest.
“Now the legs” Masato said in high voice.
Masato took more rope and he bound Cecil’s ankle, between of his Green Cargos and his white sandals. Therefore, this would disable his capacity of walking.
He must not be noisy, a handkerchief? Maybe tape could fix him. Masato thought briefly. Once he inspected the gardener’s cabin, he found his toolbox, he had good luck, he found duct tape. Masato returned Cecil’s pose and he started gaging Cecil’s lips with the tape. However, he took the handkerchief behind Cecil’s neck, lightly as a gag.
Aijima is well-done tied without a possibility of talk or escape. This is my moment to force him to say nothing to Haruka. Masato thought.
Cecil was really unconscious; Masato took a chair and waited if Cecil would wake up. He would worry if Cecil doesn’t wake up.
Masato decided to look the window, and then he saw her, Haruka. She had a big and beautiful smile on her face. Nobody can resist it. Her smile touches his soul. Masato’s mind started thinking about the possible coming scenery. Haruka usually comes to this cabin to inspire her and arrange music. It was clear if she cross the door, she would find out Cecil as hostage. He couldn't explain this correctly, not without thinking about panic or dementia.
Although Haruka is allowed to occupy this cabin, Masato locked up the latch to the door, this wouldn't allow Haruka enter the room.
The knob started twirling around, at first it was calm, and then they became more violent. Masato didn’t have other choice but hide himself under bed, begging that Haruka couldn't see him
My head, my body. Why they hurt? Why I can’t move? Cecil woke up because of the desperate struggles of Haruka to enter the room. Cecil started to notice the situation where he was involved. But he could not remember exactly what had happened to finish like this.
Was I kidnapped? It wouldn’t surprise my because I’m the prince of Agnapolis. But this place is kinda familiar to me. I’m still at Academy, so… Cecil remembered why he was there.
He didn’t see the culprit anywhere. Cecil started moaning and struggling to get free.
In other place, Haruka Nanami could not understand why the cabin was closed up. The gardener always left open cabin for Haruka could compose and practice with the musical keyboard was placed in a corner .
Althought the door was closed, it was obvious that somebody was in the cabin. Noise and moaning can be listened.
“is somebody there?” Haruka asked. “Please answer me”
Haruka decided to move the doormat, trying to find out the cabin’s key. To her good luck, she found it and he disposed to enter the cabin.
She got a big surprise when she found Cecil
“Oh my god, Cecil” she shouted about finding Cecil, bound and gagged.
“MPPPPHHHHHHHH” Cecil moaned but he wasn’t struggling.
Haruka was immobile for a moment because the situation. Then, she recovered the reason and decided to help Cecil.
“Cecil, what happened to you? Who did this?” Haruka asked while she was removing Cecil’s gag.
“It was Masato” Cecil answered and then he stopped talking briefly.
“How is this possible... Maybe he…
“Because I asked him. Don’t worry Haruka, you don’t need to untie me. Just sit down and listen.
Haruka took the chair where Masato was sit previously.
Masato was under the bed, listening the conversation between Haruka and Cecil. He was surprised that Cecil didn’t expose him
“Listen, Haruka. The situation is difficult to understand. Like the same way that Masato asked for help for his play. I was offered to participate in an action movie. I will have an hostage scene and they are asking to do it the most real possible. That’s why I asked Masato to bind and gag me for don’t feel uncomfortable and get used.
“But, why here?” Haruka asked.
“Right, you’re right. It couldn’t be in the bedroom, they guys could Misinterpret the situation, we don’t have to say that It’s enough embarrassing.
“I understand it, Cecil. Where’s Masato? Haruka was admired.
“Masato went for groceries. We researched that a tied-up person needs to be hydrated and nourished for avoiding anomalies.
“I understand. Cecil, this is could sounds embarrassing but, do you need something else? Do you need my help?”Haruka asked with enthusiasm that someone could fall in love with her.
“Haruka, all I need it’s you leave the cabin. Maybe you could practice in your room or other classroom at academy. I don’t feel comfortable with you so close to me. You look me in that way. It’s embarrassing. More embarrassing it’s that the girl you love comes to rescue instead you rescue her. “Cecil laughed ironically.
Haruka stand up and walk until the door.
“Haruka. A last favor, Could you gag me again? I need to get out of this by my own. I don’t need help” Cecil suggested her.
Haruka nodded, she walked until Cecil. She placed the piece of tape in Cecil’s perfect lips, then she took the rag and tied it tightly over her mouth.
“Mpphhhh” Cecil leave out a low moan because of the gag. He blushed because he was truly embarrassed.
“I’m so sorry Cecil” Haruka said and run from the cabin soon as she could.
Masato was waiting that Haruka gets away more as she could for talk with Cecil. By his side, Cecil was struggling so violently. He fell over his back and she started to move on both sides. Finally, unthinkable happened.
*pow* A thud was emitted over the room. Cecil fell out of bed.
“Mphhhhhhh…. MPHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” Cecil complained of pain.
“Aijima” Masato called Cecil by his surname.
Their sights crossed between them, Masato looked like amazed, Cecil’s sight expressed resentment.
Masato got out the bed and walked until Cecil for help him. But Cecil didn’t trust Masato for some reason.
*puuuff* One more time, Cecil had collapsed on the floor when Masato tried to raise him.
“Oh my god, Cecil” Masato kneeled and took Cecil’s body. “Please, trust me. Despite all I have done you.
“MPHHHHHHHH!” Cecil dropped few tears. His green eyes became red because of pain on his body. His head was trying to explode Because of the Impacts That Has received.
Masato sat Cecil over the bed, he placed Cecil’s feet on the ground. He took the chair a placed in front of the bed.
“I’ll remove the gag but you have to promise me that you won’t do any scandal”. Masato asked Cecil. Cecil nodded. “But I can’t untie you until we fix our business, understood?” Masato told him while he was removing the gag.
Masato took the rag until Cecil’s neck and he remove the tape placed over his lips.
“Ahhh” Cecil expressed discomfort because of the gags. “Could you get me an aspirin, please?
Masato nodded and started to search it. Over the desk, it was placed a pitcher of water and he fill a glass. Then he search desperately on each drawer trying to find an aspirin.
“Open your mouth” Masato asked Cecil while he introduced the aspirin and offered water to Cecil.
“Uh *gluh gluh* uh… Thank you” Cecil stopped drinking.
“Aijima, once we clarify the situation, I’ll let you free. I have to apologize for all the things that I have made you. Why did you hide the truth Haruka? Masato was shocked.
“I didn’t do it for you. I did it for me” Cecil declared amazingly. “I did it for me. My idea is we feel something for Haruka, but all of you are really close for confessing yourselves. My plan was simple, if Haruka knew about your feelings on here and you don’t want to confess, she wouldn’t respect you or show any kind of interest anymore and I wouldn’t be linked. But If I confess her about this situation maybe Haruka would support me, but the guys would give the reason and support, but they could exile me, completely. I love Haruka even if she isn’t interested on me. But It could worth separate to conquer” Cecil gave a complete explanation about the possible scenery.
“Cecil, I… I don’t know what to say. “Masato was amazed.
“Maybe, you could start to apologize.” Cecil suggested him
“As I said before, I’m deeply regretful about this. But, would you go so far just to destroy any relationship?” Masato tried to justify his actions but he took an important point.
“Well, I don’t know. I didn’t think with cold mind, I saw a chance and took it.” Cecil explained
“And now, how do you feel?” Masato asked showing some interest
“Uncomfortable” Cecil answered
“Because you're tied up? Masato was worried about it.
“I wasn’t talking about that. I’m not exposing you. I don’t understand why she doesn’t feel attracted by me. What does she want?
“Nobody knows. She’s different of any kind of girl. Do you promise me that you won’t talk about this day?”
“I promise” Cecil answered.
Masato began to untie Cecil’s arm. Cecil untied his legs by himself. Both returned to the bedrooms and decided to never talk about that day.
Cecil fell on his bed. His body hurt, he needed to rest and clear his mind.
What’s necessary for be liked by her? Cecil thought
In the other hand, Masato felt guilty about kidnapping Cecil. This mind was thinking about the future where Haruka figures out that Masato’s feelings.
