Chapter 10: PANIC!!!!
“So, why are you in front of her door?” Miki glared at the person next to her.
“No, I must ask why you are in front of her door, and why are you?” Maki glared in reply.
“No no no noooo, I asked you first!”
“What do you mean? I got here first!”
Maki and Miki reached for each other’s lips with their hands. Then they both tried their hardest to stretch the other’s lips out of shape, making odd noises cursing the other. After awhile, Maki released Miki and the said person did the same for her. Maki had no choice but to go first, if she prompted Miki to go, then she will only get stubborn and another mini fight might commence.
“Alright, I’m here just to retrieve something, I forgot it when I left her room,” Maki sighed. She turned and leaned against the wall for support.
“As for me, I wanted my blow dryer back, she’s had it since yesterday morning,” Miki mimicked her fellow cursed member, and also leaned against the wall for support.
“Then I’ll open the door first,” Maki turned yet again, and grasped the brass knob loosely.
“Then I’ll push you in, and go in casually,” Miki smirked, and stood behind Maki, waiting to set her five-second plan in motion.
“Reina? We’re coming in!” Maki announced, before opening the door, regardless of the aforementioned person’s detests of ‘wait! I have the thing on!’. Miki pushed Maki hard into the room, and got in as well. Only for one thing to happen.
Double Poof.
“You didn’t hear me?” Reina ran over to the door and dragged the clothes in, “I said wait! I have the air conditioner on!”
“No you didn’t!” Miki-hebi waved her tail dismissively, “you said you had the ‘thing’ on! You didn’t specify~!”
“Oh great, how am I supposed to deal with you?” Reina sighed.
“Ah! I think someone’s coming!” Maki hissed frantically, and slithered straight for Reina’s bed, and hid beneath it, “do something about our clothes!”
Miki also slithered under the bed with Maki, leaving Reina to pick up their clothes and throw them underneath the bed as well. As soon as she picked up the clothes, the door was knocked upon, and in came a certain person.
“Eririn… Didn’t I tell you to wait until I say you can come in?” Reina said in a very fast tone, holding the clothes of her seniors in her hand.
“I don’t mind if your room is messy, but why is it so… cold?” Eri’s pupils wandered around, observing what could be her fellow generation member’s cleaning habits. And as far as her observation goes: Reina isn’t a very tidy person.
“The air conditioner is on, that’s why,” in order to avoid suspicion, Reina could only throw the clothes into her closet, and she sat on the floor next to the bed.
“But summer’s over…”
“But I wanted to savor the last bit of summer…”
“With an air conditioner?”
“My summer is the smell of the air conditioner, you know,” Reina said in a shifty-eyed face.
“Anywho, I wanted to borrow—” Eri began, but was interrupted by what seemed to be a sneeze that did not come from Reina. “Is there someone else here?”
“No!” Reina waved her hand dismissively, “no one at all!” she smiled wide to compensate for her internal panic.
“You’re weird,” Eri smiled.
“Like you’re one to talk,” Reina replied in a sarcastic tone.
“So yeah, I wanted to know if I could borrow one of your movies,” Eri clapped her hands together, and told Reina the name of the movie.
Maki, hearing the title, saw the very same movie near her location. She slithered around it, and pushed it towards Reina’s hand which was conveniently half under her bed. Reina felt the DVD and took it from Maki’s grasp, and looked at it, confirming that it is the correct title Eri had said, she lent it to her. “This is it, right?”
Eri looked at the cover and nodded, “Yup!” and studied the box’s backside to look at the story, and pictures.
Poof!
Eri, still looking at the backside, asked “what was that noise?”
Now extremely in panic, Reina lowered herself so she could see under the bed. Unfortunately, Miki was back in human form, however, her face was close enough… I can’t believe I’m doing this of my own will… Reina thought dreadfully, before quickly moving her head forward to kiss the unsuspecting Miki, and she transformed back into snake form.
“No seriously, what was that noise?” Eri drew her attention away from the box to look at Reina, whose hands are filled with… “Reina! The management said you can’t have pets here!” She backed slightly, seeing two snakes. “Why snakes?! What if they bite?! And why is one of them holding onto your bra?!”
Reina yanked the bra away from Miki-hebi, and tossed it in her closet as well.“Come now, you aren’t afraid of snakes, riiiight?” Reina widened her eyes and forced a tremendously wide smile, her fears have been realized. The wonky eyed teen then figured out a plan, she went and kissed both of the snakes…Every ten seconds…
“For one thing…” Eri began, “You must really love your snakes.”
Miki-hebi didn’t seem to mind the showering of kisses she received from Reina, though Maki-hebi’s looks say otherwise. They both understood that they had to be constantly kissed to retain their snake forms, to make sure Eri does not find out about the curse.
“Of course I love them!” Reina felt like her face was about to rip apart with all the smiling she’s been trying to do.
“What are their names?”
Reina paused for a moment before nearly shouting, “Go…go… and Shichi…ru?! Yes, their names are Gogo, and Shichiru!”
…Gogo? Miki thought, giving a shifty-eyed face.
…Shichiru? Maki thought, also giving a shifty-eyed face.
“What wonderful names!” Eri smiled again.
…And she likes them?! Miki and Maki both widened their small golden snake eyes.
“Thanks for the DVD! I’ll return it tomorrow!” Eri waved and left.
After the final kisses, Reina gave a huge sigh of relief, as did the snakes in her hand. “Alright, who sneezed?”
Maki guiltily raised her tail in the air.
Reina put them both on her bed, and went for her closet to search for her seniors’ clothing, and found them very easily—amidst the usual purple. When she turned, she found both snakes ready to strike each other, hissing dangerously.
“If you hadn’t shoved me through the door, we wouldn’t have transformed!” Maki hissed.
“If you would have listened to our dear Reina’s detesting, I wouldn’t have shoved you!” Miki hissed back.
“I WAS going to close the door, but SOMEONE had to push me through!” Maki hissed in reply.
“Your fault for not being strong!” Miki lunged at Maki.
The two snakes constricted each other and rolled around in the bed in that position. There was yet another poof, and the two women continued attempting to strangle each other on Reina’s bed. Each rolled on top of the other for dominance of offense, but their battle was halted when the door opened yet again. Reina and the fighting cursed women looked straight at the door in fear… Only to find…
“OH MY GAHH!!!”
…Yossie standing in the doorway.
Off-guard, Maki kicked Miki off the bed, and folded her legs to one side, while using her arm to hold her bare chest, “Jeez! You scared the crap out of me! I thought Eri came again!”
“Ooooi,” Miki was face flat on the floor, and raised her head up to look at Yossie, “What gives? You know about the curse too…And you’ve seen me before…”
“Well, what would you do if you walked into your junior’s room finding two gorgeous women rolling around naked?”
“Sometimes…” Reina sighed, “I feel like the whole world is conspiring to destroy my room.”
