My first Vocaloid fan fic! I love reading Vocaloid fan fics so I decided to write my own based on one of my favorite songs, Romeo and Cinderella. Hope you enjoy it and please R&R when you are done. :)
Rin POV
"Alright, Rin you'll work with Rinto for this astronomy project."
I just woken up from day dreaming in science class and that was the first thing I'd heard. My head sunk into my notebook as I started mouthing swears while trying not to look at him. Rinto and I already hated each other enough, like if we were locked in a room together we'd kill each other, and now we had to work together. This was like my worth nightmare, but real.
Everyone got with their partners and began taking out their text books and laptops to start. Of course I was lucky enough to leave mine at home because I slept in. Rinto left his group of friends and came over to my desk. He tried to get my attention by calling my name and waving his hand in front of my face. I really couldn't care less about him right now and just continued scribbling on a page of my notebook. He continued calling my name so I stabbed him with my orange pen. Rinto had had enough of me drawing and moved my book out from under my pen. Then he grabbed my pen and stuffed both things into his bag and zipped it up. He placed it over his shoulder to finish.
"Really Rinto?"
"Yes. Now come on, let's go work on this stupid crap."
I shrugged my shoulders and grabbed my bag. There was no use in avoiding this, if I didn't want to fail this class I had to work with him. I told him I didn't have my textbook and neither did he, so we decided to get one at the school library. He began ushering me quickly out the door to the library Rinto walked next to me as we headed down the hall. I ran ahead of him, so I could get away. But he couldn't take a hint.
"Rin why are you running so quickly? Slow down!"
I'm trying to avoid you as much as I can. Can't you tell?
He caught up to me and opened the door for me once we made it to the library. Before we went in I reminded him that you have to be quiet in there. He nodded his head.
"You understand?"
"Yeah Rin."
We calmly walked inside and I began to search for the textbook we needed. He just sat down in a chair, kicked up his feet on a table, and took out his laptop to probably look up more insults for me. That's what he probably does in his spare time. Anyways I knew I was gonna end up doing all the work on this assignment; he never did anything except swear in class.
I knew where the non- fiction books were, but not the one I needed. I began to run my finger over the row of books as I searched for the one I needed. As I ignored the world, I found it. Slowly I pulled it out of the shelf. Suddenly someone's finger ran over mine. I looked up in shock and saw him. Len. His light blond hair hung slightly over his deep blue eyes. On his head was a black fedora, which looked so good with our school uniform of a white collared shirt, black tie and black pants or skirt for girls.
"Mr. Kagamine no hats in school," the Librarian whispered and Len took it off unwillingly.
He then was looking straight at me and I had no clue what to do. So I began tangling my finger in my skirt and look down. I could feel myself blushing, but tried to stay calm. Come on Rin just relax. He's just a guy you've had a crush on since the school year started. No big.
"Hi Rin."
"Hey Len."
"You here for the science project?"
"Yeah, left my text book at home." He nodded his head and said he did the same. "Who do you have to work with?"
"Gumo. You?"
"Rinto," I grumbled.
"Well you should get the textbook. You found it first."
"No. Please take it."
"Know what. Come here after school. We can share it?"
"Sure."
"See you then," he smiled as he waved his hand. He took the textbook that was hanging off the shelf and held it under his arm. I waited for him to turn the corner before walking off the find Rinto. He was in the same place I left him. Once he saw me with no book he seemed frustrated.
"Where's the book?"
"There were none left."
"Well. Then I guess we'll use the online version," he exclaimed as he logged into the site. He began reading the info out loud as I took notes. As I began typing up the notes I felt something behind me, Rinto's arm. He was about to place his hand on my shoulder and was pulling me close.
"What?"
"I was stretching. Screw you."
Typical Rinto. I tried to write faster so I could get out of there sooner. Once we finish we both left to our separate classes. Thankfully I had lunch next so I could meet up with my friends after and go to our school's café. And then go to the library with Len. Today could end up being a good day, hopefully.
"He totally likes you!" my friend Teto exclaimed joyously.
I grunted at her response to my story, but I made sure to leave out the part about Len. Teto could never keep her mouth shut so unless I wanted the entire school hearing about this I wasn't going to tell her. My other two friends Miki and Gumi were standing behind Teto, looking down at me as I read my book.
Teto grabbed the book and slammed it shut.
"Hey I was almost done! And I need to finish it for my English Project!"
"Shouldn't you care a little more?" Miki asked leaning over me.
"Yeah Miki. I totally care that Teto's X is flirting with me."
"Thanks for reminding me," Teto exclaimed.
"Sorry. But you know I hate him anyway. If he did ask me out I'd say no, in an instant."
The bell rang loudly and we went off to our separate classes. I only had to go through two more classes before I'd meet up with Len, math and music.
Math was finally over and now time for music. Miki and I had that together and she met up with me in front of the math room. "Ready Rin?"
"For what?"
"Are you kidding me?"
"No seriously what Miki?"
"It's the end of the semester and you know for finals Gakupo-sensei makes us perform-."
"Oh crap now if math isn't hard enough for me now. Then music is gonna kill me. And you know I suck at math."
Rinto was right behind Miki when I said that. He thought I said something like 'I sucked something hard'. As usual he made a 'kind' remark about how I sucked everything and how I enjoyed it, especially when it was hard. Miki was slow when it came to perverted jokes so I whispered what he meant into her ear as we walked to the music room.
"Class today we are starting a new project. You have to perform any song of your choice to the class. Pair up with anyone you'd like, but only two people to a group."
Perfect. I was one of the best singers in my class, according to every one's constant compliments, so I knew I'd end up with a great partner. When I turned around to face my class a crowd of boys surrounded me.
"Rin work with me," I heard the multiple voices of my class exclaim. Miki, who was sitting next to me, saw my terrified expression and got to work.
"Guys relax," she exclaimed as she jumped up onto her desk. "Rin can only work with one of you-."
I grabbed the sleeve of Miki's shirt. "Not really helping. I think I just saw one of their mouths water or was he pointing to his- ."
"And she knows who she'd work with-."
"If you say his name out loud I'll kill you."
"Hi Rin," I heard from behind me. Len once again. I knew I'd blushed because I felt my cheeks warm up instantly.
"Hey."
"You want to be my partner-."
"Yes."
"You heard it boys," Miki yelled. "Rin has a partner. So go get your own."
Before Miki turned to see my appreciative face Len had already dragged me away to the piano in another section of the conservatory, far away from everyone else. Leaning against it was his violin case. I'd almost forgotten that he played the piano and the violin, probably because I always focused on everything else about him. He ushered me to sit next to him on the bench and I gingerly did so.
"So," he nervously said scratching the back of his neck. "What song should we sing?"
Just hearing that made my heart rise out of my chest. I just couldn't believe it. I was going to sing a duet with my crush, meet with him after school and who knows what could happen next.
"Uh. What do you have in mind?"
"Well I was looking up piano music and I think I found something we'd both enjoy."
Out of his bag he pulled out a few pages of sheet music and began playing. The tune slowly rolled into my brain and I immediately recognized it, Magnet. It was one of my favorite songs and as he played the lyrics sort of came out of me. Not intentionally or anything like that, it just . . . happened.
"A feeble fire is lit at the edge of my heart; without my knowing, it spreads into burning passion. My butterfly flapped about aimlessly, leaving behind some powder on your hand."
He smiled genuinely as I sang. Once I finished he continued to play and sang his part. "Pulling apart our intertwined fingers, moving from our lips to our tongues-."
His hand gently grazed my hip as he cautiously pulled me closer. He leaned in close to me as he sang, almost as if he meant what he sang. I felt my cheeks heat up to the point where steam would pour out of my ears.
"Len Kagamine what did you say to Rin?" The Vice Principal, Luki Megurine, was standing next to him, arms crossed angrily. Len quickly removed his hand from my waist and backed away, much to my dismay. See the problem was my parents are over protective so they got the school to pay close attention to me and the people I'm with. And as usual he was ruining my life once again.
"Nothing," Len mumbled. "Just working on our project for music."
"Alright now you two can get back to work after I call Rin's mother to report your vulgar behaviors towards her daughter Len. Come with me."
Len begrudgingly got up from the piano bench and picked up his violin case.
"Wait," I called out. Len and the Vice Principal turned to face me, both with clueless expressions on their faces. "Nothing happened between us Megurine-sensei we were just singing a song."
I tried to appear as innocent as possible at that point to stop Len from getting suspended or anything like that. I bat my eyelashes and let out a few fake tears so my eyes looked watery. "Please don't punish him for something he didn't do."
"If you say no harm was done then I guess I can't punish him. But are you sure Rin?"
"Yes sensei." And with that he left us in the room. Len sat back down on the bench and placed his violin back on the floor. He seemed as if he'd just seen a ghost and I turned away, feeling guilty. He almost got suspended because of me and now he probably thinks I'm crazy. Like what kind of girl has the school protecting them. I know a girl who's parents already promised her to another man. A man who their daughter has never met. And now they're making sure I don't fall in love with anyone. But I guess they failed. Great my life is so perfect right now.
"I'm sorry," I mumbled, clenching my hands together. "You almost got in trouble because of me and my parents' stupid agreement with the school. You could've gotten expelled because of me. If you don't want to work with me on this project I completely understand-."
"Rin."
I looked up into his soft cerulean eyes and my reflection shown back at me, crying slightly. Now I felt completely stupid. He leaned in and with his finger he wiped away my tears. Although I felt horrible right now, I still seemed able to relax with Len by me. Slowly I was able to smile back at him.
"Well I guess we should keep singing," Len said in order to break the silence, but the bell beat him to the piano. It rang in my head, pounding. At least it was the end of the day and now Len and I would go work on our projects. I wanted to say something to him and I thought he felt the same way. However just as I felt my lips move ever so slightly Miki ran up to us.
"Hi Rin!"
"Hey Miki."
"Oh hi Len."
"Uh hi. Rin I'll meet you in front of the school alright?"
"Yeah sure. See you then."
After he left Miki gave me the most clueless expression. But then she thought about it and laughed joyously at me. I wanted to face palm myself, but it was too late. Miki had already grabbed my hands and got me to stand up. "You got a date with Len, Rin? Wait why am I asking? Cause I know you did."
"Miki can you keep it down!"
"Yeah sure Rin. You got a date!"
"It's not a date!"
I tore my hands away from Miki's and picked up my bag. Quickly I darted out the door, threw my textbooks into my locker and began searching for Len. I had to find him before my parents had the body guards come to pick me they came then I wouldn't get to see him. Please Len isn't outside already or else they'll definitely find me.
"Hey Rin," Rinto called as he caught up to me. "Do you want to-."
"Not now! I'm busy." Len where are you? Please don't be outside already.
Everything appeared as a flash of color as I ran. No longer was I able to differ anyone. Oh Len where are you?
"Oh Rin there you are," Len called out, right before he walked through the front door of the school. Let's go to-."
I grabbed onto the arm holding the doorknob and tugged it away. Through the clear door I saw the car with the bulletproof windows and guards in suits. "What was that Rin?"
"Oh I thought we should go through the back of the school instead."
"Why?"
"Because I like the garden." Wow Rin 'great' excuse as always.
"It's April and the flowers haven't even bloomed yet, but okay."
He followed me though the school as we passed by everyone, completely ignoring us. Once we made it to the back door I felt my cell phone vibrate in my bag against me. I quickly peaked at it to see who was calling and it was my mother. Len looked at me as if he was waiting for me to pick it up, but I just told him I didn't know the number.
Once we snuck out through the back of the school, Len's phone rang.
"Who is it?"
"Oh Gumo. He said that he needs me to help him on the project. I'm sorry Rin."
"Oh it's okay." Not really.
"I'll come by your place later," right as he said that he was gone. Wait what did he mean he was coming to my place? He doesn't even know where I live. Or the huge secret I have. Quickly I ran back to the front of the school where the body guards were. They ushered me into the car and drove off.
"Rillianne Kagamine, your mother the queen wants to see you immediately."
