"Ugh, why is this day so hot?" I said out loud annoyed. This day, feels like it is going to get hotter.
"Well, at least I found a bench that was under a tree to have some shade." Fanning myself with my hand is not really helping me stay cool. I wonder if I should have left with Paku to go visit home.
This summer break, I decided to stay at the True Cross Academy for extra training and classes with out so many distractions I usually get during the school year. While I'm here at school, all of the other Exwires decided to go home like Bon and group went to Kyoto to visit family. While Shiemi decided to travel with her mother collecting more herbs for their shop. Even my best friend, Paku, went back to our home town. The only ones here at the academy are the Okumura brothers and few Cram teachers and some regular teachers teaching summer classes. Today is Sunday, so today I wanted to relax and read a book in my room… Sadly, of all days, the girls' dorm A/C is broken and my plans to chill were a no go. So I made new plans to spend this day which I think will become bothersome...
"Where is he?" looking around, there is nobody near. "hmp, this guy better show up or I'm leaving." I grab my phone and speed dialed the title 'IDIOT'. Three dial tones later he picked up the phone and there is no sound coming from his end. This guy!
Trying to keep calm, I assume he is listening so I just started to talk. "Hey where are you? Did you forget we are supposed to meet near the court yard of the school? I'm getting tired of this heat and if you are not here in about five minutes I'm going to leave."
The phone was disconnected, "Did he just hang up on ME, really? Whatever, this wasn't my idea to hang out anyway. I'll just go to the beach and try the famous mango ice-cream desert by myself." I'm so angered to even bother to wait for another five minutes. Walking away I heard a loud sound coming from above, lifting my hand to cover the burning sun's light. A figure was coming down, fast, from on top of the school's building. My eyes widen as my shock to see the figure falling down towards my direction.
The figure yelled out "Izumo! I'm coming, don't leave me behind!"
The figure landed on the ground hard and stood up as if wasn't a big deal. A small creator was made with many pieces of the once called a bench that scattered all around the area.
The half demon stood up and looked toward my direction with a smirky smile and scratching his head said "I'm sorry Izumo, did I made you wait so long?"
It was silent for a moment; there are no words to describe what he just did. Just looking at the boy, analyzing him, to figure out what the hell he was thinking. With an emotionless face, I turned around and walked away to get away from the scene.
"What?! Wait Izumo. Why are you walking away from me?" Following steadily, Rin confused.
"Why? It's because I don't want to be associated with idiots." I said blankly. After a minute of walking away, I stopped instantly. I then turned around and our faces were so close. Then she said "Was that really necessary, Rin, for you to jump off the building like that. If you were busy I would have understand completely and gone by myself."
"But…We planned to hang out with each other today and I didn't want to be late..." he look like a little puppy pointing both pointing fingers together.
I signed, somehow I can't be that angry anymore when he makes that face. "Ok, so at least tell me why you were late." Annoyed but I felt bad about him.
"Mephisto gave me a mini mission to complete." Rin depressed to even say it.
"What is it?" Somehow I became curious on what mission Mesphio gave Rin to act like this.
"Well, he just made me organized his whole otaku collection… Which took all morning, I can't believe I was able to clean it all up" Rin told me
"What, that is random. Why did he pick you of all people to do that?" So confused, what is the purpose of this so called mission.
Rin looked at me with an even more annoyed face. "There is no purpose in it. I was happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time." Rin sighed. "Early this morning I was almost done with packing our lunchs for our trip and forgot to ask Yukio before he left on his mission if he had my portion of the allowance we get from Mephisto. So I went to Mephisto to ask for it…" Sighing heavily. "I went in and ask him then he told me he already gave Yukio the money. So I ask him if he can loan me some money and told him I can pay him back but he said no. Mesphio then had an idea for me to earn cash by organizing his stuffs cause his maids were off that day. Somehow I manage the task. I think my main motivation was our trip together, honestly." Rin gave a relieving smile.
I looked at him for a second, "you know, you could have ask me for some money instead of risking the chance that I was about to leave you behind." I said bluntly.
Rin looked me and sighed heavily as he rubbed his head. "Your right, I could've just ask you but I wouldn't want to depend on you." Ending with a smile.
I walked forward and flicked his forehead with my finger.
Rin reacted and put his hand on the spot I hit him. "Izumo! What was that for?" the boy confused why I did that.
"Idiot, it is fine for you to depend on me once in a while. You always helped me and the others out when we need someone. Even the smallest thing like money is not enough to repay your help you give. Anyways what is the point of being friends in the first place?" I smiled at him.
Rin's face started to blush a bit and smiled widely then gave me a big hug. "Izumo this is the first time you mention that we are friends! This is a monumental moment!"
Squeezed in his arms my face started to feel very hot. What is going on? We are too close. I shoved him to separate the hung. "Yea, yea, I get it. Give me some personal space." Turning around to hide my embarrassed expression. I can hear Rin laughing behind me. This guy…Now I want to take back what I said.. "Whatever, lets get going now or we will miss the train." Started walking the direction of the train station.
Laughing softly "Your right, Lets go." He paced himself to Walk right next to me.
I called out softly "Idiot."
