Hi everyone! I re-read this story when I was bored and I realized how terrible this was! I don't see how I got so many nice reviews but I am thankful for them. Anyways, I decided to edit the story and possibly add a new chapter! Thanks for all the reviews and favorites! Love you guys!
I hate her; I hate her, I HATE HER! Neru repeated over and over in her mind as she glared daggers a certain blonde female companion stood proudly next to her crush.
She watched as the pair of blondes walked through the mall with hands tightly locked together. 'What's so good about her?' Neru thought bitterly
Haku and Teto, Neru's best and closest friends, stared at the fuming blonde in wonder and worry. "Eh, what's wrong Neru" Teto questioned boldly with the risk of Neru lashing out on her.
"Nothing" Neru growled in replied, her golden eyes locked onto the blonde boy and girl eight feet away from her.
Teto nervously chewed the French bread she had been nibbling on that afternoon, "Are you sure?" She asked.
The golden eyed girl turned to her in aggravation, "I said I was fine damn it! Shut up and leave me alone," Neru screeched, louder than she intended.
All eyes in the Japan shopping mall darted over in curiosity to blonde girl. Haku and Teto stared with sheer horror. The blonde boy and girl Neru had been watching stared back at her in wonder.
"Ugh!" Neru groaned in embarrassment as her nimble fingers laced themselves into her golden strands of hair. With cheeks stained red with embarrassment and anger, Neru quickly sped off to the women's restroom.
Once locked safely away in the washroom, she put her back against the wall, and slid down to the restroom floor. She rested her head on her knees.
She called out a name. "Damn it Len why won't you just realize? Why her? Why?"
~O~
"I would like the banana cream pie." Len, the blonde boy Neru was observing, glanced at the waitress and smiled. He and his female companion, Rin, were currently seated in a popular café, ordering lunch to satisfy their rumbling stomachs.
The young, green haired, waitress returned Len's gentle gesture and turned to Rin. "And what would you like?" she asked with genuine kindness.
"An orange smoothie is fine" Rin replied.
"Okie doke, it will out in a jiff." The waitress smiled cheerfully and retrieved the menus she'd laid out.
"Man I'm so tired" Rin sighed once the waitress disappeared into the kitchen.
"I'm more tired than you are" Len complained, "You made be carry all your stuff." He added a small, childish, pout.
"You expect these delicate hands to carry those heavy bags?" Rin asked jokingly as she waved her hands in Len's face. He chuckled at Rin's antics.
The waitress returned with banana crème pie and a tall glass of orange.
"Thank you" Len squint his eyes to read the waitress' name tag, "Gumi." Gumi smiled, adding a quick yet cheerful 'you're welcome' before serving other guests.
Rin absentmindedly watched the waitress walk away from their table. The young blonde girl sighed and fidgeted nervously in her seat.
"What's wrong Rin?" Len asked taking a bite out of his pie. He could tell something was bothering her.
"Well..." Rin glanced at up at Len only to burst into a fit of laughter.
"What?" Len asked, as the tightest bit of anger swelled in his chest.
"There's pie all over your mouth!" Rin hollered while snapping a photo with her phone. Mortified, Len quickly snatched a napkin from the table and wiped all the banana cream off his face.
"You send that picture and I'll tell everyone you got drunk and kissed Miku!" Len yelled with a wicked grin etched onto his face.
Rin's laughter immediately seized as Len's word rung in her ears. "Fine" she pouted and deleted the photo.
"As I was saying," she continued. "Do you remember that man that works down at the ice cream parlor we went to last week? The blue haired one," Rin asked.
"Yeah" Len replied skeptically. "What about him?" he said with a curious tone.
"Well, his name is Kaito. And well," Rin paused. "Well I think I'm in love with him! So do you think it would be crazy to ask to be my boyfriend," the white bowed girl grinned, her face like a stop sign.
"What!" Len shouted as he comically spat out his pie. "Rin he's 20 and you're 15" Len snapped.
"I'm 15 and a half thank you." She replied crossing her arms.
"He's still 5 years older than you!" Len exclaimed.
"I don't care! I love him Len. And why do you care? It's not like we're dating." Rin retorted.
'Why do you care? It's not like we're dating!' Those unknowingly cold words hit him like a ton of bricks.
"Anyways, I have to meet Miku at the salon. My hair has to be perfect when I confess to Kaito!" Rin squealed leaving money on the table and skipping off.
As Len finally came out of shock, hot salty tears came down like rain. She loved Kaito? A perverted man twice her age and worked in an ice-cream shop.
She loved him and not Len. Len's heart shattered into a million pieces and faded to dust.
"Damn it Rin, why him?" he shouted. There were a few stares but he didn't care. His heart broken and no one could fix it. At least that's what the blonde boy told himself.
Ahh.. that's better. Review!
