Love Triangle

Luchia signed as she walked through the corridors of Gaito’s castle. It had passed four years since Gaito had kidnapped her. It had been in her 14th anniversary, he had appeared in her castle, where Hanon and Rina were. He had made a deal with her, he would stop attacking her kingdom and her friends, if she came with him. She couldn’t do anything other than accept the deal he propose. She opened the dark wooden door of Gaito’s bedroom. He was in his gold and violet sofa, and gave a grin when he saw her. He got up and walked to her:

-How are you today? He asked giving her a peck in the lips.

-Very well, master Gaito. She said giving a little smile.

-I was thinking of reuniting with my brother. He said smiling and leading her to the sofa.

-I though you would wait until you had all seven pearls. Said Luchia sitting and letting Gaito put his head in her tights.

-You see. He said smiling. You know that my little demons don’t do their job right and that I need more four pearls.

-I know. She said touching her necklace. It was very kind of you letting me stay with my pearl.

-I need you by my side. He said smiling to her and passing his knuckles in her face. You are my little princess.

-What do you want me to do? She asked, passing her fingers through his violet hair.

-Only make him feel like home. He said getting up, she get his lead and laid down in his tights.

-Can I know who he is? She asked.

-Of course, sweety. He said. His name is Kaito.

Her eyes widened at the mention of the name. Kaito, she still was in love with him, he never had discovered her true identity. Gaito felt her tension, and tried making her calmer by passing his hand in her hair:

-Do you know him? Asked Gaito.

-Yes. She said, she decided don’t tell him all the truth. He was in my class.

-That’s good. Said Gaito with a grin. How was your relationship with him? Did he trust you?

-Yes. She answered.

-Very good. Said Gaito. Now you can rest.

Kaito breathed heavily as he rested in the sand. It had passed four years… Four years since he saw Lucia for the last time. He never forgot her… And he didn’t even know why. It had passed four years to since he saw his mermaid. Last time he saw her, Momo had brought him to an underwater palace, where his mermaid was. What most impressed him was that he had seen Luchia’s face when he looked to his mermaid. Kaito shook his head, trying to forget all that. He needed to continue with his life, Luchia had gone, his mermaid too. He picked up his surf board and went to the sea, while he was surfing he couldn’t think about anything but the waves. But he lost his equilibrium when a 9 meters wave came crash down in him. He lost his conscience for hours, when he finally woke up, he was in a dossel bed, he wasn’t with his swim suit, but with the same clothes he used four years later. A soft hand caressed his cheek, he recognized the touch, but he couldn’t locate it. He tried to move, but he was too weak. The hand left his cheek and he cursed himself. He heard the door open and the sound of steps that stopped when it reached the side of the bed:

-How is he? Asked a male’s voice to whoever was at his side.

-For what I could see until now, he’s getting more conscious, master. Said a girl’s voice.

-Luchia. Said Kaito recognizing the voice.

-I see. Said the men. Take good care of my little brother, my princess.

What the man was trying to do? Mark that she was his? That was strange. And why did the men said that he was his brother?

-Aren’t you staying to explain to him all? Asked Luchia. I think you should, Gaito.

-No. Said Gaito. I trust you, my mermaid.

-Luchia. Said Kaito again, he felt her hand reach his.

-Do you want me to tell everything? Asked Luchia.

-Only if you want . Said Gaito.

-I think it’s better if you tell him, master. Said Luchia tension in her voice.

-Then, I’ll tell him. Said Gaito getting ready to leave, but stopped at the door. Tell me when he wakes.

-Very well, master. Said Luchia smiling.

Kaito only calmed when he couldn’t hear the other boy footsteps. Then he opened his eyes, getting a glance of Luchia's face and upper body. Her expression was softer, her body was more desenvolved, her hair was longer and her eyes and skin were lighter. She wore a pink greek like style dress. She saw his eyes open and gave a smile, hugging him:

-I’m so happy to see you again. She said.

-Me too. Said Kaito happier than her. I missed you so much.

Neither of them saw the two pairs of eyes that were watching them, one was a light lilac, and the other pair was a light green one. Yuri and Maria looked at each other grinning:

-Master Gaito will love ear about this! Said the lilac eyed girl.

-Oh yes! Said the green eyed one. His beloved mermaid is too close to his brother. I have to go tell him!

-No you aren’t, Yuri! Said the other girl. I am the one who’ll tell!

-No way! Said Yuri, starting running.

Maria followed her, freezing the floor so that she could pass Yuri who lost her balance:

-HA! Look and learn! Said Maria.

When she reached the black wooden door of Gaito’s bedroom, she knock before enter. Her master was in his sofa, with a glass of wine in his hand:

-Maria. He said. What happened?

-Master. Said Maria sitting next to Gaito. I saw Luchia hug your little brother.

-He was her friend. Said Gaito smiling. And they were close, of course she would hug him.

-They seemed more than close to me, master. She said.

-What do you mean with more than close? Asked Gaito.

-Well, they seemed intimate. Like a couple. Said Maria, Gaito’s eyebrow rose in disbelief.

-I’ll see by myself. Said Gaito. If my brother wants my mermaid, he will suffer the consequences.

Gaito walked to where Luchia and Kaito were, like Maria said, they seemed very close. Luchia got up when she saw him. His little brother also got up, but kept a certain distance. He received Luchia with his arms wide opened. And then kissed her full on the lips. She didn’t get away, but also didn’t correspond. When they parted Gaito looked to his little brother, he was chocked. Gaito kept an arm in Luchia's waist:

-I’ll explain all to you now. Said Gaito smiling. You are my brother, because we both are Acqua Regina’s sons. Acqua Regina is the ocean’s queen, and to wake her up, we need to have all seven pearls, that were confered to the seven mermaid princesses.

-And where do I enter in this? Asked Kaito looking to Luchia.

-Together we are stronger. Said Gaito. Is simple as that.

-And where do Luchia enter? Asked Kaito finally looking at his brother who had a triumphant look in his face.

-She is one of the mermaid princesses. Said Gaito, Kaito’s eyes widened in shock. And she is mine.

-What do you mean with yours? Asked Kaito upset.

-That she’s mine forever. Said Gaito more upset than Kaito.
