Eternal Melody

Chapter 807 Red Feather Part 9

Sumire decided to show him her designs and samples for other lacy undergarments she had in mind. However, he would have praised her for being so talented and creative, when he saw the design that looked practically like string. Yuhi growled.

"Please don't tell me you've started that one yet."

"If I have?" Sumire challenged.

"You'll have to keep that under control, love. After all, I can get strangely possessive."

Just the thought of Sumire wearing or anyone seeing her in those garments she showed him not too long ago bothered him. But if she made this barely string outfit, Yuhi shakes his head. One of the things he promised her when they first started dating was not to show his possessive side.

Her relationship with Nagawa was all about control and possessiveness. He didn't want to show her that side of him. He doesn't want her to think of him as a monster.

Yuhi was about to apologize when he saw her lips curve to a smile and her cheeks turn red. He felt his heartbeat speed up seeing her appearance like that.

"Too bad the space disappeared so quickly," Sumire mumbled.

"Oh?"

Sumire nodded. "I mean since we were in the mood already. I thought you could teach me since your tongue is so good."

Yuhi grinned a wicked grin. "So, you like those types of lessons?"

Sumire twirled a strand of her hair with her fingers. "I do. It really is a shame that you never gave me a proper one."

"Damn it." Yuhi cursed. "Now, I really will be late."

Takeyama will kill him, but how could he possibly stop talking to Sumire now? His entire body heated. It felt like it would burst into flames.

Sumire laughed. "I'm sorry for distracting you. I just want to hear your voice for a bit while I finish writing my new song for the new single."

A knowing ah escaped his lips. "Hino told me that you have been worked up writing it."

"I want it to be perfect."

"I'm glad my voice helps inspire you," Yuhi said sensually, and Sumire blushed.

God, how can anybody look so beautiful just blushing?

"You need to stop seducing me with your voice," Sumire mumbled.

'That's my line.' Yuhi continued to stare at her. She really is pretty, seeing the long-sleeved jumper, though. He frowned.

"Are you cold? Do you have a cold?"

"Just a little. I already had medicine." Sumire trailed off and laughed. "Don't nag. I'm fine."

Yuhi shakes his head. "I should have focused on your health rather than fucking-" He trailed off and apologized. "Sorry, I mean making love."

He still finds using those words weird, but he doesn't want to scare her.

'How stupid of me not to notice that she wasn't feeling well.' He was too occupied with his wants and needs.

"You can call it err fucking if you wish." Sumire blushed. "I mean when you say it. It sounds very sexy."

Yuhi blinked momentarily, thinking he heard things until he saw her expression. The gods must be testing his patience. If she keeps making that type of face, Yuhi shakes his head, yet he can't stop himself from looking at her. Thinking about her flushed expression when she is under him and when she gets naked. She always blushes like that.

"B-before you ask me to strip because I feel like you're undressing me with your eyes already. I have a question for you."

Yuhi growled. "Is it more important than you taking your clothes off?"

Sumire nodded and coughed. "My dear, be patient. Just a little while, and then we can do what you want?"

He was going to drag her into that dream space again, whether or not she was busy. It's all her fault. They have flirted with one another countless times already. However, this level of flirting? Shameless doesn't cut it. This is beyond scandalous.

Yuhi visibly relaxed, but he knew he was still worked up. He ran his hands through his hair and sighed. He should hear her out and control himself.

"I was thinking, what kind of song do you expect to hear from me now?" Sumire suddenly asked.

Yuhi blinked at her question. "What kind of song?"

"Yes. I have been stressed about this new song because I am wondering about other's opinions."

"You don't have to. Just write what you want, like always."

Sumire shakes her head. "That's not it. Perhaps I am wording this wrong. I just want to hear what others want from me and see if it aligns with what I want."

A knowing ah escaped his lips. "Well, I can't completely take credit for this. However, the kind of song I expect from you right now is a song that will make you happy."

At those words, her cheeks colored. "Ah, you-"

"That type of song will suit you the best. Even before your life changed, I always had this thought."

Sumire frantically took a familiar composition book out and held out a music sheet with half-written lyrics.

Title: Glorious Sunshine

His lips curve to a smile. "Can you sing this for me? I want to hear you sing Sumire."

She seemed to hesitate, but with one look at his face, Sumire nodded. Yuhi had an idea and pulled out his guitar, which earned her attention.

"Ah, do you need to get a proper look at the music?"

Yuhi shakes his head. "I saw enough."

Besides, the music comes naturally to him whenever he listens to her voice. That's probably what makes this being away from her very hard.

Before Sumire came to Tokyo, he could write songs. So it's not like he can't write them. He can, but those songs always lack something, even those about her. However, when Sumire came to Tokyo, he could see her daily. He could write better songs.

"Though it seems as if you are being weighed down by grief, stop making such a pathetic face

And cast away such frivolous things as your Cheap Pride.

The sun shines down upon you; come on, let's live

That's right; in all honesty, I want you to smile and have fun.

I want you to experience a kind of dazzling Happiness.

You have a dream, so don't let anyone ever take it from you.

Take a deep breath; I want you to tell me all about it right now,

I want you to reach out and grab that dream, but I know you need to be patient.

Show me a smile that's as amazing as the sun!

When a building seems to be swallowed in the shadow of another,

You mustn't be afraid to look around to the other side and see the future in your sight. Let's take flight!

You are deeply damaged. You've cried and cried

and have gotten tired. But you can't sleep, not anymore." Sumire sang.
