So this story will be about 5 or 6 chapters long and it has been a idea that I've had ever since I decided to try with this fics. I hope you enjoy it.

PS: if there are mistakes on grammar or anything, feel free to say it, it would help me a lot.

1. Denial

¨Absolutely not.¨ the purple haired vice president responded to the blonde's request ¨Have a nice day.¨ she greeted goodbye as she was walking towards the door of the Amusement Club.

¨Bye bye Ayano.¨ with a grin and a peck on the cheek, Kyoko greeted her goodbye ¨Can we make this club official?¨ she dare to ask in the moment of complete fluster of her kind of more than a friend/rival.

¨N-n-n-NO!¨ Ayano escaped with a red face while she could still hear the laugh from the one who had just kissed her.

`Stupid Toshino Kyoko´ the thought lingered on her mind as the heat from the quick peck remained `If only Chitose had come´ she didn't even know why she needed her so much at those moments of encountering the three girls from that room.

Ayano continued her path to the student council room with mixed feelings of what just happened. Or what happens every single time she visits that club room (ignoring the fact that she only goes to that club room). Everything was just the same, since the initial ¨Toshino Kyoko!¨ to the remark that she hadn't delivered the document she had asked her to deliver the other day to the one sided bickering from the supposed rivalry to the constant mockery of Kyoko and the constant blushing of herself. The words from her missing friend so ever present on her every day: ¨You surely enjoy meeting Kyoko, right?¨ which included the usual denial of hers, deviating the conversation to their rivalry while Chitose just nosebleed with her glasses on her hands. She wouldn't admit nor correspond to anything that she imagined.

Knowing the way absolutely to the student council room from the Amusement Club room, she arrived by inertia. She opened the wooden door to find a lonely Chitose sitting on her usual spot.

¨How did it went Ayano?¨ with a smile and her left hand prepared for a new fantasy.

¨I-I told you it was not a big deal.¨ Ayano couldn't avoid to stuttered.

¨Judging by your face, it sure was something good.¨ she couldn't wipe out her blush either.

¨No, nothing happen out of the ordinary.¨ she stopped her friend from taking of her glasses ¨Everything went normal with nothing to add. As usual.¨ Chitose gave an even bigger smile as she saw right through the lies from her friend.

¨Whatever you say…¨ Chitose sang.

¨As it should be.¨ Ayano release the glasses as she went to her seat ¨So stop imagining stupid things.¨

¨But the tint of lipstick on your cheek is the one thing that I can't ignore.¨ a wave of shock went right through Ayano's body as she quickly but clumsily take out her phone from her pocket.

Her body hadn't completely reacted to the statement as she checked out her cheek on the camera of her phone. And there it was. Kyoko's lips were printed right on her cheek. Her body now reacted to the sight as her whole body was now a big shade of red that managed to hide the red stain of lipstick on her side. She turned to face her friend, trying to come up with an excuse.

¨Eh... Uh… Uh…¨ she failed to speak a single word ¨Ehh…¨ she desperately tried to remove the mark with her sleeves as she tried to come up with anything to say.

¨Don't worry Ayano, I could only imagine.¨ she say as she laid back on her chair with glasses on hand and a dip of blood coming from her nose.

¨It's not what it seems!¨ she denied the obvious, rushing to her long gone friend ¨Listen to me, this is nothing!¨ she said as the door open.

¨Sugiura Ayano!¨ the blonde idiot came in.

¨To-Toshino Kyoko!¨ Ayano responded with surprise. Kyoko grinned as the expected response was delivered.

¨Hi Kyoko.¨ Chitose recomposed from her state with a box of tissues already on her hand ready to see the unfolding action ¨Good to see you in here.¨

¨Halo.¨ she greeted Chitose.

¨Hey.¨ Yui saluted.

¨What brings you here?¨ Ayano tried to gain presence against Kyoko on her terrain.

¨I just wanted to ask you if this were okay as they are.¨ she passed her the documents which Ayano had gave her a few minutes ago.

¨Eh… sure.¨ with disbelief, Ayano received the papers. She went to her chair followed by the happy goof and revised the signatures and propositions ¨You know that…¨ she started to say until she noticed the closeness of her rival. Mere inches separated their faces and Ayano quickly turned her face to the documents with a blush appearing all over her face ¨Eh… youmknow that having fun is… is not something which helps our school so much, right?¨ she really tried to sound imposing and thought she managed to do so.

Everyone else notice her failed attempt.

¨But it is what the Amusement Club is all about.¨ a childish tone was (not) going to defeat Ayano.

¨Maybe but…¨ Ayano quickly realized that those were the wrong words ¨This is not worth putting into consideration, try again.¨

¨Buuuuu.¨ Kyoko was not happy with the response. As she received the documents back from the vice president she gave yet again another quick peck which left Ayano even more flustered than her last kiss (if it is even possible) ¨Now?¨ the gazer of blood which came from Chitose as her glasses went flying across the room only concerned Yui as Ayano was too embarrassed to even notice anything around her and Kyoko just didn't seem to care for anything other more than her purple haired friend.

¨NO!¨ she managed to say ¨And don't do that again, is embarrassing and foolish and… why are you even wearing lipstick while on school?¨ it was known to be a norm that makeup or anything related to it was forbidden in Nanamori.

¨Only for you Ayano.¨ with a striking pose Kyoko delivered the line as Ayano couldn't help but almost collapse on herself for the insinuation. At the other side of the room, Yui desperately tried to positioned Chitose for the blood to stop coming out.

¨Could you lovey birds try to stop teasing each other and help me with Chitose!¨ Yui sounded irritated as a near unconscious Chitose just kept smiling. Ayano quickly escaped from the scene, trying to ignore the way Yui had called them ¨Kyoko, you t… too.¨ she hesitated for a moment as she saw Kyoko in her spot ¨Kyoko!¨ the called one came out of her trance and went to help the fallen friend.

Not long after that, the two members of the Amusement Club went back to their club, leaving the two friends from the student council alone in the room.

¨You really should put a strap on those glasses or something. It was scaring seeing you like that.¨ Chitose only smiled ¨I'm serious. Stop with your whatever's and take some care of yourself.¨ Chitose continued smiling mischievously ¨… What?¨ Chitose slowly pointed her finger at her face… at her left cheek to be more precise. Ayano took out her phone and there it was, another print of Kyoko's lips right on her face ¨IT'S NOTHING!¨ she denied as she clean her cheek yet again.

¨I hope that one day you stop denying it.¨ Chitose remarked with a bit of sorrow.

¨I'm not denying anything because there is nothing to deny.¨ Chitose just laugh ¨Aghhh…¨ Ayano replied in frustration.

The day had come to an end, the night was a few minutes away from appearing as Ayano walk to her house. She tried to ignored what had happened earlier today. She tried to put aside those thoughts that Chitose had incepted on her mind. She really tried to ignore the burning feeling of both of her cheeks as the lingering sensation of Kyoko's lips was hard to forget. She shake her head and straightened her thoughts as she was coming closer and closer to her house.

`She is my rival, she just tries to confuse me and distract me from my studies.¨ it was really effective `But I won't hesitate on defeating her.´ she just didn't want to admit it.

She arrived home and opened the door.

¨I'm home!¨ she announced to her mother.

¨I'm on the kitchen.¨ her mother responded as Ayano went to meet her.

¨Hi mom.¨ she greeted as she entered the white kitchen.

¨Hi Ayano.¨ she responded while waiting beside the stove for the pasta to be ready ¨How was your day?¨

¨Pretty good.¨ Ayano responded, trying to hide her consternation for past situations.

¨So… what happened?¨ as usual, she failed.

¨Nothing, nothing has happened. Same as every day.¨ she denied ¨When will it be ready?¨ she track the conversation to another angle.

¨10 minutes¨ her mother responded ¨Could you prepare the table?¨ she asked.

¨Sure.¨ she left her bag on her room and went back to the kitchen to get the table ready.

As soon as the pasta was ready, they sat at the table ready to eat.

¨Thanks for the food.¨ they said before diving into their food.

¨How is it?¨ her mother asked.

¨Pretty good.¨ she quickly responded.

¨And what happened?¨ she got back to the question left unanswered, Sugiura Saki was not one who left little details aside.

¨Really, nothing out of the ordinary.¨ she really tried to avoid that questioning.

¨Problem with a teacher.¨ her mother just came right to the possible options.

¨No.¨

¨Problems with a test score.¨ those were always present with her rivalry with Toshino Kyoko.

¨Nope.¨ but today was not really important.

¨Problems with a friend.¨

¨Noo.¨ she would correct to rival if she were to admit anything.

¨Mmmm…¨ Ayano noticed that he nearly hesitated.

¨Problems with a love one.¨ Ayano just blush, not responding ¨So that is it…¨

¨NO, that's not it.¨

¨So who do you meet?¨ Ayano was just confuse for it ¨I mean, you are in a school only for girls so who do you meet?¨ Ayano noticed the obviousness of the insinuation of her mother.

¨I didn't meet anyone. I only talk with people from my class and from the student council and no one has introduced me to anyone.¨ she was not lying on that statement.

¨You should start meeting people Ayano, go to a mixer and meet someone. Live your youth.¨ Ayano was left uncomfortable with the suggestion.

¨I'm happy with how things are.¨ she concluded the discussion.

¨You don't seem that way.¨

¨I really am.¨

¨Sure…¨ she lingered on that word for a second ¨It is a shame that you are in an all-girls school though.¨ Ayano didn't say a word.

The night pass fast with a million doubts on Ayano's head that she quickly put aside as her eyes started to close on their own.

She couldn't deny that she felt kind of angry with her mother's words.

So there's that...

I hope that you've enjoy it and well, there will be more.
