Disclaimer: I don't own the anime/manga: "Demashitaa! Powerpuff Girls Z!" or any of its characters used in this fanfic. (If I did, we all know what I would do XD.)
A/N: Okay, this is really inspired/based on my life this past week... I couldn't help but want to write something based off of it and even though I told myself repeatedly to NOT POST ANOTHER FANFIC and OF HOW I TOLD MYSELF TO NOT POST ANY MORE FANFICS UNTIL I FINISH WRITING ALL OF MY CURRENT FANFICS...this one was a must XD.
Also, this is to prove that I'm not dead or anything for not updating for 3 months (or is it 4?) on "KMTiHL" :'D. ("KMTiHL" is the most recent one that I've updated.) I kind of took a break in a way because of my evil teachers D:
I just need to survive another week of school and I'm on winter break~. Which means more updates 8D! I was supposed to update "KMTiHL" over Thanksgiving Break but hell, I didn't even get to typing the next chapter yet so... :'D ...I honestly don't know about updating my other fanfics now because since my teachers are so evil with me, I can only focus on one fanfic at a time so...yeah...
However, I plan on having this fanfic to only be in between 5 to 10 chapters. It's a short one, yeah, but hey, it's better than me not having to update any of my fanfics this past...couple of months and all :X. So, yeah...
...That...and I miss writing my fanfics and all ;-;. So, I couldn't help but want to post this and all... Like I said, this is a MUST XD. Enjoy :3.
(Also, this is rated T for a REASON. If you feel offended in any way, please leave, okay?)
Prologue:
Okay, how should I begin with this exactly? Oh, right, I need to introduce myself, don't I? Well, the name's Kaoru Matsubara. I'm sure you heard of me and all, since of how many fans I've seem to have gotten since high school just started and all.
Obviously, I'm in tenth grade and I transferred with my two childhood friends named Momoko and Miyako to the same high school. The three of us all went to the same preschool, elementary school, and the same middle school. Honestly, if it weren't for the day of when I stole Miyako's crayons and Momoko's cookies, I don't think I would even be friends with them at the moment, really.
Anyway, now that that's taken cared of… You see, I may not sound like it, but I'm actually really annoyed and confused and it's all because of a stupid boy named Butch Takashi.
If you haven't heard of him, then I'll be glad to tell you about him. He's one of the cockiest dudes I've ever met in my entire life with that stupid grin and smirk of his. He's the school's number one player—yes, you heard me: player. He's a womanizer that has nearly girls falling for him in every single grade in this school. Well, actually, he and his brothers, Brick and Boomer, all have girls falling for them in every single grade—even Momoko and Miyako!
Brick is the number two player at this school except the only thing about him is that he's in between Boomer and Butch. He's not that much of a womanizer as Butch, honestly since he's more of the type that would focus on his studies. Believe it or not, he's actually one of the top smartest students here, which is probably why he's even considered as a player in the first place. Good looks, the brains, the brawn: all of the qualities that most girls would go after—which is why Momoko's after him in the first place.
Boomer is the number three player at this school, which in my opinion is weird since he's so kind. Actually, believe it or not, he's actually unaware of himself being a womanizer. He has the brains, the kindness, and so on, which is why, again, so many girls like him. And not surprisingly, Miyako has feelings for him. (She actually got over Takaaki, her crush since preschool. Yes, preschool.)
I don't really mind Brick and Boomer, honestly. They never flirted with me—thank God for that—because they seem like they're interested in Momoko and Miyako. However, Butch, on the other hand…he flirts with me.
And the weird part is: he started flirting with me starting this week, after I started wearing this huge coat on me. My mother, for once, didn't try to make me wear something girly but instead this huge coat that reaches down to halfway past my knees. I think it's a trench coat, but I have no idea what it is. The coat's green and all and, basically, it attracted a lot of attention when I wore it to school, but I didn't really care. (The coat is freaking warm, for crying out loud!)
However, one day, he started flirting with me. It had all started with me telling Momoko to stop moving my desk, since she, Miyako, and I were sitting in groups and all. It was during passing period after lunch had ended and here I am, moving it back to the original spot but then Momoko moves it.
Just as soon as I moved it back (after what seems to be a dozen times of moving it back and forth), I felt someone's hands on my waist. Normally, I'd hit the person that did that, but considering of how my teacher was in the room…I kind of doubt that.
"Excuse me," was what I heard from the boy as he pushed me aside gently. Once he walked past me, I realized who he was: Butch Takashi.
My eyes twitched slightly as I saw him walking towards his seat and sitting down, smirking slightly. However, once I glanced over at Momoko, she was the one grinning so I couldn't help but think, Oh God.
And the day after that, during P.E., he called out my name softly when my teacher was talking. Once I glanced at him, I saw that he was making kissing faces at me. Kissing, I tell you! Kissing!
Of course, I frowned and then mouthed out to him, "Fuck you."
But I saw him grin as soon as I glanced away and heard him say to the dudes behind me in the line, "She digs me." Once I heard that, I merely rolled my eyes, thinking of what an idiot he is for even saying that in the first place as some of the other dudes were chuckling.
And the day after that in P.E. again, one of the dudes that chuckled yesterday was sitting next to me as we were stretching. He called out my name before I turned my head to face him.
"Butch likes you," he said, grinning slightly.
My face immediately twisted in disgust, frowning. "Ew."
He merely chuckled in reply, shaking his head as he went back to stretching. Butch was two down from where I was sitting at so I'm actually hoping that he heard me. (Maybe then he'd back off flirting with me…)
The next day, we didn't talk at all—we bumped into each other in the hallway on accident during passing period, but other than that, we didn't make any contact or anything at all, even during P.E. In my opinion, I was happy a little bit because of how he isn't flirting with me, but part of me kind of missed him bothering me as strange as it sounds. I don't know; I guess I just got so used to him flirting with me the past couple of days that I miss his flirting. (That sounds really weird…) But, it turns out that I got my wish.
The next day, we talked again but barely. He'd greet me and then I'd have my face twisted in disgust. He then started flirting with me a little bit, but then here I am, locked downstairs of where health classes and the girls' and boys' locker room are. So I had no choice but to go the other way out the door, out to the field, and then out the gate, walking towards the opposite direction that most people did. They were heading towards the train stop (they built like this train or whatever that conserves energy or something—either way, that thing is fast and it's good for the environment or something) while I was heading towards my father's car since my father decided to pick me up today.
Of course, I immediately spotted his white shirt and dark green shorts so I quickly put my hood over my head, hoping that he wouldn't recognize me and all. (Besides, it was raining. And yes, some people are actually that crazy to only wear a shirt and shorts when it's raining.) Just as I walked past him, he recognized me (damn long coat of mine!), talked to me for a bit as I was beside him, and as soon as I was away from him, I heard him insult me slightly or something and his friends that he was walking with were laughing as hell.
My eye twitched slightly, wanting to beat the hell out of him, but since it was raining, I just wanted to get home already. I only partly heard his words, something about what I would look like if my long coat was white. However, I just headed towards my father's car and then I was home.
At home, I found myself telling Momoko about what happened by chatting with her.
First he flirts with me. Then he insults me. What the hell is wrong with that dude?
He likes you, Kaoru~.
Oh, I DOUBT that.
Kaoru, you're cute—no homo or anything! But you are, for a girl! If only you wore, you know…
…Don't you DARE say it.
Skirts. Dresses.
GAH, YOU SAID IT. I TOLD YOU NOT TO SAY IT.
Hehe, well, if he likes you, just go out with him!
Hell no! Do you not know about his reputation as a womanizer? I already got my heart broken by one before; I don't need it to be broken by another!
Kaoru, c'mon, you gotta give it a chance!
I don't give a damn, Momoko!
Just go out with him~. You guys make a good couple!
And what about you and Brick, huh?
She didn't respond for a while.
That's what I thought.
Oh, be quiet. At least I admit that I like Brick.
…Hah?
Kaoru, you like Butch, don't you?
I just told you earlier that I don't need my heart broken by another womanizer!
And I told you earlier to give it a chance! Besides, he made kissing faces at you, right?
Oh God, don't remind me…
He likes you, Kaoru! The more you play hard to get with him, the more he'll want you.
But then if I DON'T play hard to get, then I have to end up going out with him or something. Either way, I'm screwed, you know! So I'd rather go with the option of playing hard to get!
Okay, fine~. I'll be waiting to hear the news of when the two of you go out or maybe you admitting that you're falling for Butch~.
Before I could even type anything, she immediately went offline on me and I couldn't help but groan softly and mutter, "Just what the hell did I get myself into…?"
A/N: Hmm, ending sounded more like a cliffhanger to me... I don't know when chapter one should be up but I'm expecting maybe on Sunday? I don't know; I've been thinking up ideas for this and all so... XD
Also, I just took my History Test, Nutrition Test, & Math Quiz. I'm pretty sure I got a B on my Math Quiz (Q-Q *goes into corner of depression*) and I'm aiming for at least a B on my History Test (History is so evil... *has History for her worst subject*). As for my Nutrition Test, it turns out that I could still finish it next week and all... You have no idea how stupid I felt when I was panicking over of how I wasn't gonna finish the test in time XD. If I find out that I can't finish my Nutrition Test because I misheard my teacher or something...I'm gonna be pissed like hell -A-.
ANYWAY, did you like it :3? I hope you did XD. More ButchxKaoru-ness will be coming up somewhen/some time 8D. (So don't ask and don't start asking me when the next update will be, considering of how I have a bunch of stuff due next week... *doesn't feel like doing the bunch of stuff because she's tired from staying up until midnight the previous night due to studying*)
Moving on...review? And maybe some criticism? I'd appreciate it if you mentioned some of the parts you liked in this prologue and all in your review, please... :3
