First Maid-sama fan fic! I hope you all will like it!
I do not own Maid-sama or Kaichou wa Maid-sama! Although I wish, I could have one of Usui's polo shirts.. *smirk
Just to be clear, the timeline is after the field trip. And the words with asterisk after it are vocabulary, if don't know any Japanese words. ;)
Ugh. Why does Seika have to do this? I barely know anything about this school event! Misaki thought as she walked on the hallway going to the Student Council room. As she passed to the different classrooms gloomily, she saw the students working on some designs for the gym and she thought, I'm the only one who's not looking forward to this. Everyone seems happy about fixing the gym for this. I'm such a pathetic Student Council President!
When she finally sat on her chair in the Student Council Room, her memory flashed back to the day the Principal told her what wanted he wanted before the school year ends…
"Ayuzawa Kaichou*, I want you to organize a school dance before the year ends. You see, my little daughter asked me why does our school doesn't have any kinds of these events. I told her, 'Before, Seika High was just a school exclusively for boys and there's no need for those events.' But then she asked me, 'But Seika is not anymore an exclusive boys' school…' And that gave me an idea! Of course, this is not going to be useless because this may help recruit future girl students for the school!" the Principal said to Misaki who was standing in front of his table
"But Principal, we already organized a Cultural and Sports Festival this year. I already know a number of girls who were interested to attend Seika. Isn't this type of event unnecessary?" Misaki asked as she tried to calm herself with the Principal's sudden decision
"Nonsense! I already talked to the teachers and the Board, they think it's a great idea since it's new and well, they want to try it too. I know it's not in the Student Council's budget anymore to organize this since the funds were already used up with those two events, but a fund raiser program has already been organized by our teachers. They're really dedicated and want this event to happen!" the Principal said gleefully
"But Principal! The students—" Misaki was cut off by the Principal's stern look on her
"No more buts, Kaichou. Forgive me for asking you this on such short notice, but I want to try something out this year. Besides, I trust you enough that you will not fail me... You will organize this for me and the teachers, yes?" the Principal said as he was standing up to look at the window
"Hai*, Principal. But may I ask what the theme of this dance is?" Misaki asked, surrendering to the request of the Principal
"A masquerade," the Principal said as he looked at Misaki from where he was standing. "The other details are written here if you have any more questions. Of course, this is not only my decision but the whole Board as well." He said while handling the paper that was on his table. "You may now go, lunch break is ending. I expect that you will say this matter on your meeting with the Student Council this afternoon. Thank you for your time, Kaichou."
She was expecting a negative feedback from the Student Council about this crazy idea that day. She expected them to be hysterical, to be angry to the Principal, but what she didn't expect was the cheerful feedback of everybody in the council, including Kanou.
The details were discussed that day: the gym would be the place where it would be held; the time, it will start on 8pm on the fourth Saturday of the month; the organizers, the clubs, sports clubs included; the dress code, anything to hide one's identity except vulgar and short clothing that reveal almost everything; the security, everyone will get a ticket before the event, no ticket, no entry. Further details were discussed the following days and it was settled that it should be announced to the students immediately. The Principal helped in this case, and organized a school meeting in the gym with whole student body to announce the School Dance and the theme. Of course, Misaki expected them to have a riot at least, as if to pinpoint to the Principal her point. But to her dismay, the students were happy, excited even. The boys were even joyous to her surprise. Though she's happy that everyone seems excited about this, she let out a sigh to the endless possibilities of what may go wrong.
Ugh. I'm tired. I think I should get a nap. She thought as she let her eyes drop for a minute while still sitting on her chair. Then suddenly, the door to the Student Council room opened. She suddenly had to urge to open her eyes and see who it is, but she's too tired to do so.
"Pres? You awake?" the voice asked, she immediately know who it is.
"Hm... What is it idiot Usui?" she asked and then opened her eyes. She was suddenly taken back when his face was inches from her.
"What the hell do you think you're doing? Idiot Usui!" She asked while covering her mouth and standing to the next side of the room farthest from him
"Nothing. I was just checking if you got any sleep. And from the looks of your eye bags, I say less than 6 hours." he said while looking at her. "Eh? You think I was going kiss you?" he asked while noting where her hands were and the way she reacted. He smirked at the thought of her panicking despite his innocent act.
"Definitely not! Just because the whole school is speculating whether we're dating for real or not doesn't mean you can—" she stopped her sentence as she realize what she's going to say. "Ugh! Never mind! What do you want?" she said instead
"Well, the usual. I want to know what you're going to wear to the dance." Usui said while picking up her fallen chair
"To be honest, I'm not supposed to wear anything for the dance. I'll be guarding the gates of school to see that no outsiders will intrude the dance." she replied while walking around the room, looking through the window
"What? But Yukimura and Kanou are going. They even have their own dates. Why are you the only one who's not going?" he said approach her to where she stopped
"Because, I allowed them to go. I noticed while we're having meetings on what we're gonna do to the dance that they really want to attend. Besides, I'm the only one who's totally against this thing." she said while turning around, surprised that he's beside her already
"Huh? A girl guarding the whole gates? That sounds so manly considering that you're a girl." he said and looked at her. He hated it when she's acting like that.
She smiled. Usui is always concerned when I'm acting like this.
"Okay. I'll tell you what. Since you're not going, I'm not going too." he said looking at her sincerely
"What? You don't have to do that! You should attend the dance since it'll be your—" she cut her statement when she thought, your last event before transferring…
Sensing what she was going to say, Usui pushed her down where no one could see them from the window and hugged her tightly. Misaki blushed deep red when he suddenly did that. He has to say something to erase that thought for a moment.
"Do you want me to dance with other girls?" he asked as he let go of her and smiled
"…No." she has to admit it at one point. The thought of him dancing with other girls during the dance seems okay to her since she's been protecting those girls ever since she became a President and trusted them that they won't do anything unusual. But she couldn't help herself feeling the same pang in her heart once she saw him dancing with other girls, just like when she saw him talking to Maria-sensei*.
"Haha… You're very honest today, Misa-chan*. But it's the same for me, I don't want other men to dance with you. Especially with San-Shita-kun." He said and touched her cheek.
She blushed again, a deeper shade of red than that a while ago. She was touched that it's the same for him at the same time taken back by his compliment.
"So, I've decided that I'm going to help you with your guarding duties. But as a request from me, you have to at least bring something for the masquerade. Like what you're supposed to wear if you happen to attend." He said, still touching her cheek
"But I told you, I won't attend. Besides, I don't have anything to wear." She replied while tugging at his school polo for balance at her current position.
My girlfriend, always arguing. Usui thought and smiled
"Well, we can ask Aoi-kun to let us borrow some of his costumes. I'm sure he'll be happy to lend us some of his works." He said drawing his face to hers
"But—" she was cut off by his kiss. Blushing so hard again, her train of thought was gone once he deepened the kiss. With him, kissing her like this, she seems melting in his arms. She can't think straight. She wants to pull away from his kiss, at the same time wanting it to last for a few minutes.
He removed his lips from hers, noticing her lack of breath. He blushed too at the thought that he's the only one who can see her flustered face. He's the only one who can make her like this. And liked it, he liked that very much.
"I'll be the one asking Aoi. I don't want it to add up with your stress and the things you're supposed to be doing. Besides, I don't have anything to wear too and it'll be much convenient to ask him since I don't want to buy a costume for this. Is that alright?" Usui asked while patting her head.
"Yeah… that's fine…" she replied, still not thinking straight
"Okay. Since there won't be classes tomorrow, in preparation for this, I'll see you in the evening Misa-chan." Usui said while standing up and lending her a hand to stand up.
"Yeah, okay." she said, still feeling light-headed from the kiss. She stands up with her holding his hand and accompanied him to the door of the room.
When they were in front of the door, he opened it and said "Oh, by the way, don't forget to wear the necklace I gave to you, okay?" while holding her hands, he kissed it and said, "See you tomorrow, Misaki."
He left before even Misaki can react to him saying her first name. Why is it so easy for him to say it? She blushed again for the nth time that afternoon.
Always leaving me in a state of confusion, idiot Usui! She wanted to shout at him but instead she wonders if there will be a time wherein she can be comfortable with her saying Takumi…
