Recently I haven't been commenting so as an apology :kneelbow: and for my own twisted amusement.. I decided to write my own...and this is my sad attempt of trying to contribute to the forum..>_>..*crickets chirping*..okay..I'll cut the crap... XDWARNING: MAJOR NOOB AT WORK..READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
PROLOUGE
I awoke to the sound of the school bell, signaling the very last moment of my summer break has ended. I exhaled a deep sigh as I sat myself against the huge oak tree, which was located near the school gates. Still weary from my deep slumber, moments ago, I decided to stay in my current position until I felt more...focused. Urgh...so tired. Hey!...There are lots of new students this year...haven't seen her before...or her...or eve-
All my thoughts came to a sudden halt when I managed to catch a glimpse of her. She had a small face figure, all of which contained obviously a nose, mouth,pair of eyes and ears. But she was different from the usual girls you see around here. She had long, chestnut brown hair, flawless, slightly tanned skin, beautiful sparkling brown eyes, a small sharp nose...not exactly sharp, but i'm not going to go into details. Lastly, her thin, luscious, pink lips. She was more attractive than the average and I must admit, though she isn't very tall, she does have a well..uh..good...no great body...
" Morning Sunshine! Watcha looking at? Stalking a new girl?"
"Aahh! What the hell Maki?" Her sudden presence took me by surprise to which I responded to by hitting my head on one the stray branches of the tree.
"Happy to see me, eh Yocchan?" was all she said as she carefully swung herself down to safety from the huge oak.
"Well, truth be told...Not really. And for your information I wasn't stalking anyone..What the hell were you doing up there anyways???Oww...my head...it hurrrtttsss..." I complained while rubbing my head, in attempt to soothe my newly aquired bruise.
"Ahh, don't be such a baby..To answer your question..I was babe watching and since this is an all girls academy, I thought I might as well check out on some of these chicks..."
"From up there?" I questioned and pointed to the tree as I said this.
"Psh, you have no idea what babe watching is do you? I was checking out these stuff " as she said that, she placed her hand on her own chest, making the message she's trying to send clear as glass."Catch my drift?"
I found myself rolling my eyes from hearing her answer. " Ugh...such a Goto Maki answer. Jesus, do you have no shame? But I don't know what's worse..You trying to sneak a peek at somebody's bust or the wink you just gave me.."
Trying to look quite offended, key word, trying, she answered " Ouch..well, you go on ahead and go back to your little stalking thingy...cause since I technically have hm...about 30 seconds before I'm officially late for class" And with that, the running track star was off, darting towards the school.
" Oh, very funny!! YOU KNOW, THAT WAS PROBABLY TO WORST ATTEMPT YOU'VE MADE TO TRY AND MOCK ME!!!" I looked at my sports watch and I'll be damned.. "SHIT!!! 15 SECONDS LEFT!!" At that point, I made a made a mad dash for it too.For once, I'd like to just walk into the building casually... Why does my first day always end up like this?...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 2
With every step I took, I could feel my heartbeat increasing more and more of a momentum. It wasn’t because of the impression or what people are going to think of me. I stopped caring about that long ago. But the thought of my homeroom teacher standing there waiting to greet me…all I have to say is TWO WORDS…Oh god. With the clock still ticking, I took a couple of sharp turns and dashed up a ridiculously long flight of stairs. Damn…run Yoshizawa, run! ...Run as if your life depended on it. Although my life wasn’t really in any danger…yet, it would be if I didn’t move my ass any faster. Alright, first room on the right…Calm…and breathe in…Okay, you can do this…just walk in casually…
Before I could even reach my hand for the door, it slid open with a thundering crash. Like what any other normal person would do, I positioned myself into a defensive pose. (Crouching over a bit with my hands close to my chest) Realizing that I probably looked like a poor baby chipmunk who was about to be chased down by a pack of wolves, I straightened myself from my current front. Afraid to even make the least of eye contact, I lowered my head, just enough to have my bangs to cover my facial expression and scanned the room for an available seat. It didn’t take long before I was stopped dead in my tracks.
“Yoshizawa Hitomi!” boomed a voice.
Inwardly, I cringed and made an Oh crap! I’m so screwed face. Instead of freaking out, I turned my head reluctantly and met eye to eye with Nakazawa- sensei. “Yes m’aam?” I managed to squeak out.
“Just nice to see you’ve made it to class on time…find a seat.” She smiled half- heartedly while giving me a bit of a death glare.
She didn’t have to tell me that again and without further a do, I scampered into a seat near the back of the room. I put my bag behind my chair and managed to see Maki, who sat about 3 seats to the right of my desk, trying desperately from bursting out laughing in class. Ha! ... I’d love to see the hell she’ll be put through for doing that. I then, too shot at her, what could be considered a Nakazawa-sensei death glare, but she didn’t seem to notice. Giving up, I decided to pay attention in class instead.
The teacher starts with the usual greetings, and then moves onto the school dress and behavioral codes. Personally, I find the dress code talk is just a total waste of time mainly because, we have uniforms, a white dress shirt with a loose black tie and black dress pants or a black skirt that hikes up quite high. Basically, the only part of our wardrobe we get to choose, are the pieces of article that nobody should ever see. (As Nakazawa puts it) But who am I to complain, we’re wasting class time and there are a few around the school that are quite easy on the eyes. Barely 15 minutes into the yearly prep talk and my mind is already starting to wander. Whatever she said after the codes and whatnot is history to me as I rest my head on my arms and drifted back to my earlier slumber.
*************************************************************************
When I woke up, I’ve lost all track of time but I needn’t worry because everyone was surprisingly still patiently listening to the hour long lecture, excluding Maki who was apparently busy picking at the dirt under her nails. Still feeling a bit groggy, but much more awake from my little in-class nap, I settled into a trance, hypnotized by the back of some person’s head for no apparent reason but I was still paying attention to what Nakazawa has to say. Just incase she, being the psychotic person that she is, had an idea of giving a quiz about it later on. Anyways…Either, the person had eyes on the back of her head or she just coincidentally had to get something from her bag that was hanging loosely on her chair, she turned around. My heart suddenly skipped a beat and I found it kind of hard to concentrate on the extremely long speech our sensei was giving, noting that it was exceedingly boring. I quickly shifted my gaze to the desk below me and I could feel my cheeks starting to heat up.
The next thing I knew it, the girl infront, got up and walked to the front of the class along with a few others. I swear there could have been at least 8 people or so. But that didn’t matter. I had to fight my inner fanatical desire to keep from staring at that girl or she’ll think and start to treat me like some old perverted man.
“As you can see,” Nakazawa started “This year we have a lot of new transfer student and I’d like all of you to welcome them.”
“Well, go on and introduce yourself.”
About 5 minutes later and after 7 other long speeches, it was finally her turn! She stood there looking quite bored.
To my disappointment all she said was “Hello, my name is Fujimoto Miki and I transferred from Hokkaido. Um.. It’s nice to meet all of you.”
Nakazawa finally gave the group at the front a nod and soon the sound of feet shuffling around the room could be heard as the crowd of people dispersed and found their way back to their seats.
Maybe I should introduce myself or at least say hi. I won’t have any other opportunities to approach her later on…I mean I will…but she’ll take it the wrong way and think I’m a stalker or something…or want something from her…not that I do.. The girl.. I mean Miki was nearing her desk, and here I was flustering over how to talk to her. She’s just like any other girl... C’mon pull it together, you’ve never been afraid to talk to anyone before!
Without thinking, I mumbled just loud enough for her or maybe a few others around me to hear.
“HeyI’mYoshizawaHitomiandIwasjustwonderingifyouwantedtojoinmeforlunchifyou’renottoobusy...oranything” I quickly sputtered in one breath. What the hell did I just ask her? Oh my gawd…did I just- It took me a few second to let it all sink in but as soon as it did…OH MY GAH…I just asked a stranger to joi—Right then I felt like mentally slapped myself. And that might have not even been enough.
For a split second she just stood there beside her desk, staring at me in confusion. Thank god it was only for that one split second, but the worse was still to come…

Ahh!!! a new chapter...

Safe...barely. :sweat:
I half-expected to hear Yuko say "...for once" at the end there. :lol:
I settled into a trance, hypnotized by the back of some person’s head for no apparent reason but I was still paying attention to what Nakazawa has to say.

Oooooooooooooooooooooh...looks like Yossi's getting all "dokidoki". :shy2:

Hey, at least now you have a name. :yep:
IT'S MIKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII~! :inlove:
The girl.. I mean Miki was nearing her desk, and here I was flustering over how to talk to her. She’s just like any other girl... C’mon pull it together, you’ve never been afraid to talk to anyone before!
Maybe not, but how many of those other people has she been "dokidoki" for? ;D

Yossi's so cute when she's all flustered! :wahaha:

Yossi = :mon sweat:
Miki = :mon huh:
Liking it so far dude. :D
-
Welcome back~
So is Miki the same girl Yossi had her eye on in the previous chapter?
-
I want to read the next oneeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
-
:-\ I'm sooo sorry about not even posting another chapter for over a year and probably a bit more. Had some family problems and I guess I wasn't in the mood to write and kinda just forgot about this fic. But one day I was sifting through my documents, trying to free some space and I stumbled upon this.And I literally went o____o HOW COULD I FORGET?! So sorry to those who've read this like...a year ago and think I've abandoned the story :bleed eyes: Anyways, enough of my sob story..UPDATE YES?!
P.S My writing skills are rusty I still think that it sucks so..Criticism anyone? BRING ON THE PAIN XD
Chapter 3
I’m pretty sure she heard me..but part of me wished that she hadn’t. She remained standing there for a few more seconds, then decided to return to her seat, brushing off whatever I had said a few moments ago aside. Oi...This girl… Well I guess she wasn’t really to blame because if I were in her situation I would have gave her the dude-what-the-hell look. Did I look a little too eager…or desperate? I sure hope I didn’t, at least no one saw..right? That would be bad for my reputation.
Suddenly I hear a familiar voice behind me snickering and at that instant I knew Maki saw the embarrassing scene that had just unfolded itself seconds ago. Oh dear lord, take me now, this is going to be a long day. After that little fiasco, I was really hoping that class would end soon. As if my prayers had been answered, the school’s lunch bell rang.
At that moment, everybody got out of their seats with their packed bags and ran towards the door...except Miki, she walked out slowly. “OY, YOU BRATS! DON’T RUN IN THE CLASS!” I heard Nakazawa scream before she too exited the room.
Just as I was about to scoot out of my seat, I felt someone pounce on my back, wrapping a pair of slender arms around my neck. Who else would this have been other than my childhood best friend? “Oh I’d loveeee to join you for lunch, Yossi-dear~” she cooed. No one else in the school would have dared to touch me like that, nonetheless talk to me in such a way. But, I was grateful for that because she was the only one who didn’t bother with such formalities. If it were another classmate, they would have bowed and made sure they didn’t say anything awkward then make up an excuse to leave. I really have no idea why everyone acts this way around me though.
Although I knew she was mocking me, I couldn’t help but chuckle at her. She always knew how to lighten up my mood. This was probably why I decided to keep her around that many years ago. But that was a long time ago, when I thought of her as just another annoying classmate.. Suddenly her stomach made a low growl, interrupting my trip down memory lane. As I carefully unwound her arms which were loosely wrapped around my neck, I picked up my bag and headed towards the door.
I turned around and leaned against the doorframe, waiting for Maki to catch up. Unable to hide my amusement after hearing her stomach growl, I smiled at her. “Hungry?” I asked. She gave me a sheepish grin and nodded. I might have been imagining things but… was she blushing? I decided to ignore it and allowed Maki to drag me into the lunch room by the arm.
Just as my morning seemed to be getting a bit better, Maki stared at me for a second and said “Wow, who would have thought this day would come? I mean come on, WHO IN THE WORLD would reject THE Yoshizawa Hitomi?!” she bellowed a little louder as we reached the entrance of the cafeteria.
A couple of girls looked at her then quickly turned away as soon as they realized that I had caught them. Unfazed by the look I gave her, in hopes of her keeping it down, she continued “That Miki is a weird one, really. You’ve pretty much have more than seven eighths of the whole school in love with you. And your charm seems to have no effect on her.”
Just as the words left her mouth, I placed an arm around her shoulder. “Oh really? Are you one of them?~” I teased, all the while, moving my eyebrows up and down.
She was quiet for a second.. before she bursted into fits of laughter. “You sound like that old man from the convenience store the other day, when he tried to woo me into getting my number! That was creepy, don’t do it again.” Seeing the serious face she had on, even though she was clearly joking made me chuckle for the third time today.
As we neared the table that everyone had pretty much “dubbed” as the YoMaki table I whined “You still haven’t answered me~!” Just to get on her nerves even more I added a wink, as I took my bento box out. I really didn’t care about her answer though because it was obvious. We were best friends. Nothing more. Well knowing Maki, at least that’s what she’d probably say.
“You just shut the hell up and eat.” She huffed, as she too, took out her lunch.
“Itadakimasu!” Both of us announced at the same time before reaching for our chopstick and beginning to dig in. After that we ate in complete silence. But it was a comfortable silence where we just sat there enjoying each others company. I guess this day wasn’t going to be that bad after all..right?!

Holy freaking crap! I haven't seen you in a long time.

he had a small face figure, all of which contained obviously a nose, mouth,pair of eyes and ears.

Chapter 4
I walked out of the classroom feeling as if a heavy weight had been lifted off of my shoulders. I was definitely looking forward to leaving the school premises to enjoy my lunch. As I walked along the familiar path that lead to the one place where I felt right at home, I did what I did in my spare time. I thought to myself..
Really… the first day of school never fails to surprise me. I mean, it was my first day and I was already noticed by some girl. Not just some girl though. She seems to be quite popular around the school. I actually wouldn’t be surprised. She was pretty, not as in the annoying Kawaii~ peace sign kind with the squeaky voice though. Those kind of people really..I mean REALLY stress me out for some reason.
But..when did I, Miki Fujimoto, the quiet and lonely one notice this? To be honest, I shouldn’t have, I haven’t been interested in anybody for as long as I can remember. That’s a good thing though.. I tried to convince myself.
With a reassuring nod, I continued with the internal conversation with myself as I was nearing my intended destination. It was earlier this morning when, I saw her resting under a large oak tree on my way to class. Despite the relaxed expression that she had worn on her face, she seemed to have some sort of mysterious and yes, this might sound clichéd, but a “cool”, yet comforting aura about her. And yes, even though I didn’t know her, I am the kind to make assumptions like that. I really can’t point my finger on it, but I have to say. At least she seems … quite intriguing?
What was her name again? I remember some people mentioning it before and she even introduced herself to me…Yo-..Yo--chi?...Yo--shi? No wait, that’s the green dinosaur in that Mario game. Haha, I love how I just get off topic so easily whenever I’m talking to myself. Errr…right..anyways..It was Yo- something. I actually couldn’t hear her though, she was all mumble-y and such.
So getting back to the matter at hand, she asked me if I wanted to join her for lunch? Well, if I was not mistaken, I believe that’s what she said. But, again, she was speaking so fast I barely had any time to process whatever she had spluttered out. So, just in case if I had heard wrong, I pretended that I couldn’t hear her.
Honestly, I would rather be seen giving her the cold shoulder than joining the rest of those poor suck ups who pretty much worshipped the dirt that she walked on..I didn’t know why, but this bothered me. She was perfect in every aspect. Everyone looked up to her. And strangely enough, it had angered to me some degree..
She reminded me of him..
-
So, is Miki going to join 'Yoshi' for lunch? I think Maki might have something to say about that.
-
pentagon!? I thought a rectangle would have been bad enough..LOL~
*shoutout to Mikitty*
You yourself have they "cool" aura too~ at least to me though XD
:mon bat:
-
@kRisZ Ohh~ New reader :D And maybeeee ;x Actually...Being the super unorganized and stoopad person that I am I was originally gonna make this into an ishiyoshi story buuuuuuuuuuut.. o_o...I might start another fic for that :mon speechless:
:cow:
She was pretty, not as in the annoying Kawaii~ peace sign kind with the squeaky voice though.
Reminds me of the Bunny :D or is it the Bunny XD
It was earlier this morning when, I saw her resting under a large oak tree on my way to class.
Oh, she's been spotted :w00t:
She reminded me of him..
Hmmm
-
@rndmnwierd Nope xD
She went off for lunch by herself.. Sorry I think my writing might have been a bit misleading :nervous
@amEthystx Haha..I have pretty much the next couple of chapters planned out but I was actually debating whether or not to add love pentagons ...maybe a hexagon...depends on what kind of twisted mood I'm in XD. And hot dayumm~ Mikitty is the biggity-bomb :D! Next to Yossi that is ;x (I'm biased.)
@kRisZ Reminds me of the Bunny or is it the Bunny
LOL I was thinking exactly the same thing. The USA~CHANNN PEACE! Unless you were thinking about something completely different...then I would seem like a complete idiot xD But I do like Sayu..so no hatin' here.
Errr...no update yet cause I just read through my previous chapters and...heyulll o_o; There was a lot of grammar mistakes and it was written awkwardly. I think I'm going to have to start proof reading it. But yes, currently I am completely infactuated with the game Bejewelled 2 so this might take a while ;x
-
Didn't think it would take me that long to churn out a couple of chapters. Sorry again, it's been busy these past few days.
Chapter 4
It had taken the two barely 15 minutes before they finished their lunches.
“So…What should we do now?” Yossi asked curiously as she set her chopsticks down on the neatly folded napkin beside her empty bento box.
“Hmm..We could always go find your beloved Miki,” Maki suggested nonchalantly.
Just by mentioning her name, the taller one of the two’s face was suddenly tinged with a slight shade of pink. But, the only response that came out of her was a bemused “Ehhhhhhhhhh?”
“Oh come on! We both know that you’re interested. It could be fun.”
Yossi thought for a while… before settling with her unsatisfied looking pout.
“Oh and maybe you could learn a few things about her and she might fall into one of your Yoshizawa traps.” the slightly younger one urged on with a devilish smirk plastered onto her pretty little face.
“ Traps? You make it sound like I’m trying to get something out of her. As if I were…a gold digger or something.” She laughed. “Plus, she needs her own privacy. It’s not easy being the new kid in school.”
“ You do want something from her, don’t you? Don’t even lie! I can tell from the way you look at her. I mean, well, she’s got one hell of a body.. and did I mention her le— “ The usual banter between the two was cut short as a peeved voice from the crowd around the cafeteria cashier approached their table.
“Ayummmmi~~~ I told you that was just a stranger that I bumped into this morning! I swear that I don’t even know the guy!”
“Sure, sure. If this guy wasn’t anything special why were his arms all over you?” Her friend who was absolutely unconvinced by the others reasoning, jeered.
Completely exasperated from trying to justify somebody else’s actions was way beyond her ingenuity. “Augh! Ayumi, he was not trying to feel me up or anything! For the millionth time he was jus--…“ Close upon yelling out the rest of her sentence, the slightly tanner looking girl went silent as she saw the school’s two most popular girls giving her a weird look all the while retaining a confused expression on their faces.
She really had no other choice other than to sit at the table beside Yossui and Maki or sit outside and eat on the park benches. The latter was probably a better suggestion, considering that she was already beginning to feel her cheeks radiating from embarrassment. And with that, she grabbed her friend’s arm and walked quickly out of the canteen.
Turning back to face each other, Maki unexpectedly smacked the lunch table under her with such force that Yossi had flinched away, her eyes the size of dinner plates.
“SO. As I was saying..her legs…”
All Yossi could do was roll her eyes as Maki rambled on. Was it too late to change her mind again? This was DEFINITELY going to be a long day.

Rika. XD

Cute XD
“SO. As I was saying..her legs…”
:drool:

Holy crap school's been bombarding us with projects XD. But I finally found the time to "proofread" this chapter... the grammar is still kinda iffy though. And I can't write emotional/ deep things even if my life depended on it..but I tried Dx. Nonetheless...the next chapter.
Chapter 5
I know that I might come off as a huge flirt. From the way I talk, to even the way I walk, but that’s the just the way I am. I don’t mean to do it on purpose, but as I’ve mentioned before, that was just the way I turned out to be. And trust me, this is one of the many things that I really do hate about myself.
Just from my attitude alone, many would think that I would not be one to ever think about being involved in a serious relationship. But quite frankly, it’s more like the complete opposite.
People have told me that falling in love is one of the greatest treasures in life. Actually, I’ve been there… And let me tell you, it was definitely not how they described it in the fairy tales where everything just so happens to end happily ever after. Things like that just don’t exist in reality and I was naïve to think that they ever did. I’ve grown up from being the little, innocent and childish girl that I used to be.
Over the years, I’ve learned that you should keep your true feelings to yourself, unless you’re looking to get hurt. Funny, how I had to learn it the hard way.
It’s been a while now, hasn’t it?
****************************************************************************************************
A couple years back...
You decided to walk me home after school had ended, worried that I’d get into another fight again. You were lecturing me about being the bigger person and ignoring whatever nasty comments people were throwing at me, yet not a single word you’ve said had gone through my mind. It was currently more occupied with thoughts of you...
I’m quite surprised, why you would even bother with someone like me? I’m just another girl craving for your undivided attention. Yet, you took the time to wait over half an hour for my detention to end, just to make sure I’d stay out of trouble afterwards. Even though you were disappointed with my violent uproar and disagreed upon what I had decided to do, the first thing you did as soon as I walked out of the classroom was take a careful look at the slightly purple bruise that had already formed on my cheek since this morning. You had asked if it still hurt while gently touching the discoloured cheek and I could tell by your voice that it was filled with concern.
Even though the bruise on my face was still feeling a bit numb, your sympathy had made my heart feel anything but that. I couldn’t help but blush with you being so close to me, and you might have felt the slight change in warmth under your soft and gentle touch.
“It’s nothing really,” I looked away and gave a little laugh. “Nothing Goto Maki can’t handle!” I had given you the proud stance, the one where I placed one of my hands on my hip and the other extending towards you to show a thumbs up.
Apparently you found it quite funny since you gave me a light tap on the back of my head while playfully muttering “Baka..Let’s get going.”
We walked in silence until we were about three quarters of the way home when I suddenly snapped out of my reverie. I gave a quick glance over to your side and noticed that you had stopped to find a good pebble to kick around as we continued our way to my house all the while following the familiar path of the sidewalk.
My heart fluttered as soon as you noticed me staring at you. You then gave me one of your infamous cheeky grins. I bit my lower lip and had a hasty decision to make whether or not I should tell you about my feelings. I couldn’t tell if you liked me back since you were such a flirt around everyone, without even knowing it. It was quite cute though, the way you were always oblivious about everything around you.
Come on, I’m THE Goto Maki! I was afraid of nothing…well that was true, until you came into my life. I’ve grown so accustomed to spending my time with you that if my confession was going to ruin our friendship, I’d rather keep it in until my heart tore open. Well, actually if I were to get into an accident, right this instant and only had three seconds to live, then I might try spluttering AwmgYossiIThinkILoveYou all in one breath. Oh, and don’t think I would forget about the clichéd part in movies where I would reach over to my necklace and hand it over, making you swear you wouldn’t forget about me or else I’d be sure to hunt your ass down in my afterlife.
But, then again that was the dramatic side of me speaking. Before I knew it, I remember being surprised with what I had blurted out next since I had no intention of doing what I said I wanted to do. If that made any sense at all..
“Yossi… I need to tell you something.”
“Yah?” You looked at me curiously with those amazingly beautiful eyes. You tilted your head slightly to the side, adding onto how adorable I thought you looked at the spur of the moment.
It was now or never.
“I like you.” I kept my eyes glued to the floor, as if it had suddenly became the most interesting thing in the world.
She chuckled lightly before repeating what I had said just seconds ago. “I like you too Gocchin.”
I knew she wouldn’t understand. God she was so AGH!... “No really. I mean it as in I like, like you.”
She stopped walking and stopped to grab my arm as I was still strolling at the same pace. If not, even faster than before.
“Where are you going?” She asked.
“What do you mean?”
“This is your house right?” She pointed to the number engraved in stone, which rested on the right side of the elegantly smelted gate.
I was so preoccupied with my thoughts that I didn’t even realized that I was already home.
“Uhm…yeah.” I scratched my head sheepishly, all the while trying desperately to cover how embarrassed I was.
“I guess..I’ll see you tomorrow?”
I gave her a nod and went to push in the correct numbers into the keypad near the gates.
“Hey, Maki?” She looked up from the ground and returned her gaze upon me just as I was about to walk through the gates.
“Hmm?”
Walking briskly to my side, she waited for a few seconds before cupping my face lightly. She moved her lips closer and planted a light and tender kiss on my bruised cheek. Moving further up a little from my cheek, she whispered into my ear.
”Hope that feels a bit better tomorrow.”
Leaving me dumbfounded, she stepped back and I could have sworn that I saw a smirk on her face. As she turned around and began making her way back home, she flung her arms into the air and rested her hands behind her head. There was nothing I could do but stand there and stare at the slowly fleeting figure. My legs remained fixed to the concrete floor under me as I suddenly realized that she was long gone, just like my sense of rationality.
**************************************************************************************************
On the outside I seem to have gotten over it. And I have… but lately these feelings that I’ve learned to forget about are slowly beginning to resurface again. I know that I shouldn’t even think twice about them since we’ve become best friends. Like I’ve said before, your charms were and still are, irresistible. And no matter how much you’d like to deny being nice, you manage to show the caring side of you whenever I’m feeling under the weather.
Sometimes I wish you knew how I still feel about you, despite the countless years we’ve spent together and stupid things I’ve said. And I have no doubt that I’ve already done it countless times before, regarding the dim witted remarks I like to make. But with all joking aside, there are some nights where I lay around in bed, wondering if I had taken the time to reminded you about how I felt, instead of pretending nothing had happened that day, would things have turned out differently?
I want to have someone there for me, someone who’s willing to help me back up whenever I fall. Someone who’s there to reassure me that everything’s going to be alright no matter how bad the situation is. I want a shoulder that I can cry on, a shoulder that I can sleep on. I want to be able to fall into a deep slumber all the while being surrounded by someone’s warm embrace, an embrace that’s going to keep me safe as long as I’m with them.I just want to spend my time with that one special person who I know I can share the best and the worst of times with, without being judged. I want to be loved by someone… someone like you.
Under the surface I’m usually the one in high spirits, while on the inside, it’s quite a different story. I’m kind of glad no one has been able to see through this fake facade yet. But I have no idea how much longer I can take this before I end up subsiding to these bottled up emotions.
On several occasions, I’ve let that side of me slip out, where I’m a total mess. I’ve been meaning to hide this part of me from the presence of others, but being the fragile girl that I really am on the inside, you have no idea how scared I really am.
I’m scared…even terrified because the feelings I have for you right now are starting to grow stronger and stronger with each passing day. Even a mere glance from you could send butterflies to my stomach. I must be good at hiding these feelings of mine though, cause obviously, you haven’t noticed. I guess what I’m trying to say is… this isn’t just a crush anymore…I think I might be seriously falling for you.
The spurious front that I’ve set up is slowly crumbling and I don’t want anybody to see me in my moment of vulnerability. But right now, all I can do is smile and bear with it. And maybe, that’s why on the outside I have to maintain the reputation of being a player. It’s because… I’m so tired of having my feelings rejected.
What would you say if you knew I was actually that insecure? With you being the Yoshizawa Hitomi I’ve learned to adore, you’d have too many admirers to even bother with one measly crush. So, would you laugh at me or would you ignore it? And, what if I told you, and you alone, would be the only one to have that effect on me?
I’m disgusted with myself because I don’t want to deceive those who are closest to me anymore, yet I still do it. And I do it… because it helps me forget about the person I truly don’t want to be…That person being…Me.

Poor Maki.

Chapter 6
The bell had just rung as Miki stepped through the school’s front gates.
Ah, perfect timing…
Unlike all the other girls around her, who were all running towards the school, and rushing to get to class on time, Miki strolled slowly to the front doors of the school. According to her timetable she was suppose to be in English class by now, but she didn’t care. Nothing really mattered to her… Not anymore..
I wake up every morning to go to school, but for what? After I graduate, I’m going to end up getting a job just to earn the money to buy food. In turn to get the strength to go to work, to earn the mone- - Really.. What was the point of this? In the end, we’re all just going to fall over dead.
That was how Miki perceived life. It was all just a vicious cycle to her. There wasn’t anything in particular that made her life enjoyable. She had no friends, she had nothing to do to kill time with and those who were closest to her had been left behind. She had just moved from Hokkaido to live with her widowed aunt after much convincing from her mother that it was better for her to move to Tokyo, for she would be able to experience life outside of the town she lived in.
Mother had been looking quite pale on the day she left for Tokyo, despite the constant cries of reassurance. She didn’t want Miki to worry about her.
“I’m fine, I’m just going to miss my little Miki,” she said with a cheerful smile “You’re growing up so quickly. I remember as if it were just yesterday when you used to come home from school and you’d talk on and on about what you learned. Now that you’re becoming a woman, you’re going to have to leave lil ole me.” She gave a little chuckle at her own little jest. “But, I’m sure you’ll succeed in whatever path you choose to take. You were always a smart girl.” She couldn’t help but let a tear slip from her eye, as she said this.
She knew she was burst into waterworks if her mother kept speaking like this, as if they were never going to see each other again. She didn’t want her mother to see her cry, so instead she wrapped her arms around her mothers’ neck and pulled her close for a brief hug. “Mom, don’t worry about it. I’ll be back before you know it. I’ll even come and visit you during my breaks.” And as she pulled back from the warm embrace of her mother she quickly brushed away a tear that was close to falling, with the back of her hand. Putting on a cheeky grin and despite the emotions welling up inside her, she promised “I’ll be sure to make you proud.”

A couple of minutes passed since the lunch bell had rung, and the halls were empty. That was if you had not included Ms. Fujimoto wandering around the halls. It wasn’t because she was lost or anything. Oh, in no way would Miki ever be lost. She was the type of person who remembered details. She had already remembered which hall lead to where after her first walk around the school earlier that week when she had to confirm her registration to the school.
She was nearing the end of her casual stroll when a woman, which looked like she was in her mid 30’s popped her head out from behind a door. The woman gave her an overexcited and welcome by grabbing Miki’s arm and dragging her into the classroom.
“Ah you must be Fujimoto Miki. Must’ve gotten lost in this huge school, didn’t you? No worries, you’ll get used to it soon.”
From far away, the woman had look much more attractive. Now that Miki was up close, she could examine the woman’s features and though she was not one to judge someone’s appearance… She had to admit, this teacher must have been by far the…how should she put it.. repelling?.. face she had seen so far. Not to mean it in a harsh way, Miki had stifled a laughter at her teacher’s odd expressions.
“Ah—em..umm…yes..” And with that, she took the only seat left. It was located on the second of the fourth row, on the other side of the room. It had a large window that gave her a wonderful view of what was going on in the school yard. On this particularly bright and sunny day, she could see those who had P.E outside lining up for their “beginning-of-the-year fitness test”. Surely, this would be much more interesting than listening to –
“Right, Ms.Fujimoto, since you weren’t here when I first introduced myself, you can call me Kei –sensei. But I prefer to be called Kei, makes me feel younger...like I could relate to the kids..” Miki looked on with a bit of disturbance as Kei-sensei began to take trip back to memory lane.
“Anyways, we will be reading a short story today and when we’ve finished reading together, we’ll discuss the—“ By then, “Kei’s” voice had been drowned out. Miki, who was deep in thought, propped her left arm onto the desk and laid her chin on the palm of her hand. She was bored out of her mind and this was only the first day of school. At that moment she decided to look out the window. The P.E class had just finished their crunches and pushups and the group of girls were being lead towards the tracks.
This should be interesting..
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After the girls were put into heats, a teacher with long hair, tied back in a neat ponytail organized the students into their positions. She walked to the inner of the field and had her timer ready in hand.
“READY…SET…GO!” And the first heats of girls were off.
Yossi, who was sitting to the right of Iida-sensei busied herself by picking at the blades of grass beneath her to pass the time. This was what she dreaded most… waiting for other to finish. Even when she was little, her mother had told her that she was impatient. Over time, it had gotten better. But she was always known as the type to be a busybody.
“Hey, at this rate we wouldn’t need lawnmowers,” Maki pointed out as she took a seat beside her buddy, “…Or the school gardeners.”
Hearing the comment, Yossi released her grip on the grass and laughed. “Sorry, you know me, I just don’t like sitting here doing absolutely nothing at all.”
“Yeah, I know what you mean. Can you believe we’re only on the second heat?”
“Oh jeez, well there’s still two more before I get to run,” Yossi exclaimed as she put her hands behind her head, fell onto her back and watched as the clouds drifted slowly across the clear afternoon sky.
“Don’t worry, I’m going next. You can tell me how good I am soon enough.”
Just as she said this, Iida sensei called out.
“Heat 3, you’re up!”
“Well, wish me luck!” Goto pushed herself off the ground and walked to the starting line. But as she did this, she made sure that she didn’t forget to turn around and give Yossi a mockingly flirtatious wink.
“You don’t need luck!” Yossi shouted, ignoring the girl’s playful gesture.
This girl is unbelievable… She smiled to herself.
