EDIT: Hi people... i did a major editing to chapter #1 and #2 cause i felt i didn't really like it after a while.. haha.. I added some things and changed some stuffs.. the main details are still he same..the expressing wise it's different.. Looks like GakiKame is not very well received.. but i'm still writing it.. lol..
Hello~!
Am I really doing this?! *Cover myself with durian shells for protection*
Yup!
I'm sorry about Esmerald... but...I seems to be a little stuck over there.. so..maybe i'll take a little break to write on something else first..haha.. like this!
This came up as a one-shot.. but i thought it's just too cute to leave it like that..
I do not have a plot actually.. Nothing heavy in the plot though.. haha.. just some light fluffs and continuation of the stories in one-shot form.. but they are all related...hence i named it "Bits and Pieces" LOL... So... It can be on this page right?
I kinda like to keep my story short... I have trouble writing long one.. LOL~ forgive me?
Anyway... here we go!
(sorry about the title... i don't know what to put..LOL~)
#1. Partner-in-Crime“Where are we heading to?”
Although the older girl sounded almost annoyed and was dragging her feet, acting like the brat others so often address her as but the excitement that shine in her eyes said otherwise.
“Somewhere.”
The other had her answer short along with a mysterious grin which only served to tease the girl further, chuckled when she was elbowed lightly on the side by the hand that was currently linked to hers.
“Somewhere
where?” the girl tried a different approach as she pulled the other closer and looked up into her face.
An adorable bean with a mega watt smile.
Cute it may be, but it horrifying to one who had a stand to make.
It ain’t an everyday thing that the sub-leader well known for her maturity and responsibility decides to behave like a baby, especially to the horrendously infamous little turtle of the group. But…
Nope, sorry Risa, not this time round. No matter how tempted she was to give in to this rare display of cuteness, she ain’t going to spoil the fun for the night.
“Somewhere out there…” the younger sang, hoping to distract the girl in a way that the very smile she loved would not fade out.
“Beneath the pale moonlight…” and sure enough, the smile remains as the bean continues.
Indeed…they were.
“Someone’s thinking of me…”Are you? I don’t want just anyone.“And loving me tonight…”
Not just tonight…Line by line… they sang… as they resume their walk, with Risa now walking on par beside Eri, trying to step on every single fallen leaf in her line of path.
And there it is.
That sweet little smile.
Don’t get the turtle girl wrong. She does like the beany’s sunny bright smile but there is just something about this faint serene smile that is so endearing, almost like she is smiling to the thought of someone.
Is it me you’re thinking of? Can it be?It’s strange, isn’t it? How the line between girl-friend and girlfriend could had somehow gotten this dangerous. Eri had no idea when or how she starts feeling this way for her sub-leader, or maybe, she did, right from the start then it shall be, which explains the complexity of excessive happiness, bashfulness, repulsiveness on anything concerning a certain bean since forever.
What’s the hold up then? Barely a teenage within the renowned female group that had slashed records in history and having to live a double life as a student and idol, the girl missed out a chuck of her life, not knowing what love is all about.
And
If no one ever tells you that you could love your friend especially, a girl like you yourself, would you believe it? Acknowledge it?
Her very own little turtle world shook after Reina made a confession that she was dating their leader only to the rokkies. No secret between rokkies was the promise. And so, she very much realized that that was the closeness she wanted from her friend. Since no secret, it wasn’t much long later that she too made a confession to her fellow generation.
Things escalated with the help from the rokkies and one gokkies. It started slowly from discreet planning to make time alone for the pair till they were just practically pushing Eri straight into Risa’s arm on many occasions.
“Somewhere out there…”Pausing, the bean finally lifted her eyes to meet the turtle’s as she stood before her…
“Out where dreams come true…”In synch, they ended the song beautifully and sink into a comfortable silent, both grinning.
“Ah… I manage to brainwash you well into converting into a Disney fanatic~”
Risa look pleased or proud even at her achievements and in fact, yes, she did succeed.
“How can I not when I’m watching them every night with you and going to their theme park at least twice a month? Not to mention…
Someone even sync at least 4 GB of Disney classics into my iPod. Speaking of which, don’t you have one too?”
The younger poked the other’s tummy playfully, eliciting a surprise squeak before Risa absentmindedly scratched the back of her head and smiled sheepishly.
“Ar…they are out of memory space.”
“All 160 GB?!”
Hesitantly, the girl nodded, suddenly finding the branch near her feet much more interesting.
“Entirely Disney?”
“No! There are ours, lots of English and Korean pop…I had videos too…some photos too………”
“Uh~ ~huh” a not very convincing affirmative
“But…
anyway… you had lots of free space to spare” the bean must have noticed the teasing grin as she self-consciously lowered her volume, getting the last part of the stubbornly cute answer out barely audible.
“I like them anyway…”
It’s true. Ever so often just like before, the girl finds herself singing or humming them unknowingly.
“Ar…Thanks?”
Eyes met her shyly before turning away again and adorably, the older scratched the edge of your eyebrow with a finger, trying to conceal the smile that was tugging at the corner of her lip. After a short moment of silent, the girl looked back up again with a look.
That gaze…It is just me or? “C..come on…Let’s go…”
Snapping out of it first, the bean tugged on their linked hand to move forward…
“ARH!”
Failing to realize that she actually might have head-butted herself into the large metal gate if not for the turtle pulling you back in time.
Giggling at the infamous reaction queen actions, Eri finally announced their arrival.
“Here we are!”
“Our old High School?”
The bean would probably have noticed long ago if she wasn’t so engrossed in her little stepping game.
“Yup~! It is~”
“Doesn’t seem to have changed much...”
“Gaki-san… it ain’t that long since we graduated.”
“You’re right… but still… this brings back lots of memories, doesn’t it? Even though we were so busy that they almost had us kicked out due to attendance issues... More like you actually…”
“I know… I know…well…at least half the time I’m still able to make it on time.”
“On time? Turning up in the classroom panting, hardly within the grace period?”
“That’s what it’s there for~”
Snorting at her childish reasoning, Risa turned back to examine the normally lively campus compound, seemingly amazed by the how elegantly peaceful it looked under the moonlight at this hour.
“I wonder if the wishing tree is still around.”
“Want to take a look?”
“But… it’s closed.”
Releasing her hand softly, Eri took a step back before smirking at the older, who was eyeing her curiously. With a small leap to get a firm grip atop the gate, the turtle pulled herself up and did a cool flip over, obvious to impress, before landing perfectly with a soft thud.
Looking expectantly through the bars of the gate, Eri found the bean looking bewildered for a moment before she tilted her head slightly with a cute grin and held her hands up to clap softly. Like a professional performer, the turtle smiled her thanks and bowed, but in actual fact, she just wanted to jump around in joy.
Deciding to end her little show of flexibility, Eri stepped forward to open the gate from within and offered her hand to the awaiting girl.
“Milady…” in the perfect gentleman stance it is.
Risa could only slightly shake her head in amusement. The turtle just manages to surprise her each time with her weird ethics.
“This is trespassing, you know…”
“Nothing is illegal…until you get caught~” the girl flashes a smile with her signature fang.
With a snort, the ever responsible sub-leader rested her hand upon the spontaneous turtle.
“And now, I have a partner-in-crime…” With that, the younger girl closes her hand over the one on top.

I heard they went to the same high school.. i don't know how true is that though..
I kinda like to write narrative recently.. What do you think of it?
anyway.. The song they were singing is 'Somewhere out there' from Disney's American tail..
AND. If you have been reading Esmerald... Doesn't the first few line sound all too familiar? It's not the same couple though...
Hope you people likes it..!
Thank you!
