"Usui...perverted space alien from planet pheromone...idiot!...Takumi!...USUI!"

He faintly heard a sound that was vaguely familiar, but he couldn't concentrate on the voice let alone anything for that matter. He was too busy thinking about what had previously happened before he came to the Maid-Latte.

Flashback

Usui was strolling around the school waiting for Misaki to finish her student council work after she had thrown him out as usual, but he decided he would return to her side after letting her cool down. Opening the door to the student council room, he found it lifeless and empty. "Did she leave already?" he thought but quickly dismissed that option when he discovered her bag poking out from under the desk. Usui walked up to the roof thinking she'd be there, but he didn't expect that she would be with someone else. He also didn't expect to see what he thought was preposterous.

End of flashback

His cheek suddenly felt the pain of an annoyed slap from the person in front of him.

"Takumi! What are you spacing out for you idiot." Misaki said with a venomous glare but deep within her eyes anyone could see she was worried.

Takumi viciously looked up at whoever had disturbed him and realized it was her.

"What do you want with me." he spit out.

Misaki slowly became more confused. He had never talked to her with a deathly stare and a cold voice that could bring death to those who were unfortunate to have the sense of hearing.

"Taku-"

"Just say what you have to say already! It's annoying sitting here with you wasting me time!" he growled.

Shocked was an understatement of how Misaki felt. She stood there motionless and immobile as tears threatened to break her eyes before her anger took over her emotion of pain.

"What the hell is wrong with you?! I'm a 'waste of your time'? Fine, then don't fucking bother me anymore!" she screamed into his face.

Takumi left without saying another word and without looking back at her. He dragged his limp body towards his apartment. "Why would she have-I don't understand-I can't believe she's even able to look at me without feeling any guilt." His thoughts were filled with nothing that was peaceful. Once he reached his apartment, he lied down and, for the first time since he met her, dozed off to sleep without her entering his mind.

Days passed without them exchanging words. Usui would go out of his way to evade her, but she would somehow end up walking right past him in the hallway or at lunch. She had even followed him up to the rooftop, but he stopped going up there in case she would do it again. Misaki's body had started to suffer the agonizing pain of neglect and malnutrition soon after they had their argument. Her hip bones protruded through her skirt, and her knees quivered whenever she stood still. The bags under her eyes were skillfully hidden from society by cheap makeup and the work of her sister. Her anger had subsided into nothing but a menacing silence. Anyone could see that Misaki was crumbling down into a blackness so deep that light could not have saved her from whatever was troubling her.

Usui on the other hand was looking handsomer than before. He had started to talk to some of the girls and guys and eventually had friends. Most were shocked that Usui Takumi, the most popular guy in school, was trying to make friends but no one knew he did it to fill the void in his heart. He made a decision to forget about Ayuzawa and not care about her anymore. He noticed when she became frail and thin of course, but it's what she deserved he thought.

His laugh would ring into her ears everytime she heard it. The jealously and sadness she felt that someone other than her was making him laugh overtook her each time, and it hurt none the less. "What am I saying? I don't need him! I was just fine without him before he entered my life. I can't believe I actually thought a guy could be decent," she told herself anytime she felt lonely.

Misaki began to overwork herself and fill her days with piles of things to do in order to forget Usui; however, the night was inevitable and dreams reunited them together. Every night she woke up crying and wishing that it was real.

Two months had passed when she finally gathered her courage to ask him why he left. She told herself that no matter what answer he gave that she would except it and move on. The next day at school she waited for the bell to ring and went to go find him. After thirty minutes, she was about to give up her search until she spotted him leaning against the building. Misaki took a deep breath and nudged her feet forward.

"We need to talk," she managed to get out once she reached an appropriate distance.

"And what makes you think I want to talk to you, Ayuzawa?"

The sound of her last name through his mouth sent a frenzy of sadness and excitement throughout her body. It had been a long time since she had heard his voice, but he also stopped calling her by her first name. She couldn't have expected much though after the way they had both acted.

"I-I just want to know why you left. I'll leave you alone for good if you give me an answer," she tried to say confidently.

"There's no way you don't know. Are you kidding me, Ayuzawa?!," all of his anger from the moment he saw her on the roof with him up until that point had begun to surge it's way out, and he couldn't stop himself, "You know, I thought maybe you would have came to apologize after your act of love to another guy, but I guess I was wrong! How could you have kissed him?!"

Misaki looked up at him bewildered at his statement before recognition hit her. Hard. She carefully picked her words before spilling them out into only one sentence.

"I can not apologize for something I didn't do," she simply said and started to walk away.

Usui grabbed her by the arm and forced her body to turn and face him.

"What do you mean, 'something I didn't do'? You obviously kissed him!" Usui fumed.

"He kissed me. I can't apologize for kissing someone else when I didn't even want the kiss," she hissed before turning around and running as tears confusingly ran down her face.

Her body moved on its own, and she didn't realize she was headed into the direction of the highway. A loud honk awoke her from her train of thought only to be instantly replaced by darkness.
