NOTE: Again, a completely modified version of what I wrote in English class. I really have no interest in writing anything other than anime otherwise... This story has no plot whatsoever and contains the popular pair OshitarixYOUROC. You love that pair, yeah? XD Oh yeah, this is my actual first try at fanfiction, edited of course.
I was sitting right in front of him, on the grass. Soon enough, I found myself staring at his tie and then his eyes.
"You're not lying to me, are you?" I asked, frowning. He was a tricky man. Not that he misbehaved or anything, but his thoughts are practically impossible to read.
"Hm? What is there to lie about?" He lifted his head to look at me through those mysterious lenses. I gave him a very suspicious look and he softly chuckled.
"No, I assure you, this is the correct answer. Oxygen has an atomic mass of 16, if you remember."
"I thought it was 12!"
"That was Carbon." I sighed in defeat. I always mix those two up.
"Ah, don't worry about it too much. We'll be provided with the Periodic Table anyway." That was true… The genius pushed up his glasses. I sometimes wonder if I am the only one but… I love seeing them reflect the sunlight.
"Mm. Thanks. Uh, I'm kind of hungry so yeah, I'll be leaving now…"
"Actually, would you like to stay with me for a while? Gakuto has detention right now, so I'm pretty much by myself. I'll treat you if you want~"
Hyotei's prodigy and genius; one of the most polite and good-looking boys who don't ignore me: Oshitari Yuushi. Now, we all know that people who eat fish are better at math, but he was pretty much good at everything. His height was above average; that's always a plus. Except, tall people miss the feeling of being hugged by someone taller. It's uncomfortable to bend down. But I suppose men don't really care about hugs… Anyway, I came to him for help in Chemistry because apparently he 'never refuses to help a lady'. His friend Gakuto, on the other hand, was… vertically challenged*. A carefree boy who loves to jump, Gakuto is, to be blunt, an idiot. Thus explaining why he is not here to entertain a certain genius in lunch break.
"It's okay, really… I just want a bar of chocolate," I said quietly. We were at the cafeteria and, for some unknown cause, Oshitari insisted on buying me more.
"Oh, I know you eat more than that! Everyone knows how much of a bottomless pit you are. Be more honest with yourself; you're probably craving for Skittles and Mountain Dew as well. Or maybe French fries?"
"Now that you mention it…" Despite Oshitari's enthusiasm, I felt somewhat guilty for robbing him of his money… For the first time in my life, I decided to be stubborn. I opened my mouth to shock him with words of protest, but no words came out. Is this a disease? Now that I think about it, I haven't said 'no' in a long time. It's probably SNWD – Saying-negative-words disability. Nah, I'll ask that person for a better name. According to her, I also suffer Excessive Happiness Disorder. Or something like that.
"Though, it was unexpected. I always thought you were very thin."
"Thank you, but not today. Okay?" Hey, that rhymed!
"All right, if you say so…"
Somehow, we wound up near the gym. And, may I add, Hyotei's gym is beyond spacious. It took me a while to realize that, sadly, my chocolate finished so quickly; I should learn to savour it more.
"Ne, Oshitari… Will your fangirls kill me if they see me talking to you?"
"Of course not. The ladies here are actually very civilized."
"I see…" In my struggle for a conversation, I blurt out the most unnecessary sentence this world has ever heard.
"I know a guy in the other class likes tomboys. So what's your type of girl?"
"One with long, thin, pretty legs."
I spit out the water I was drinking. Is this the school's gentleman who was supposedly oh-so polite and… gentlemanly? I recovered from the shock when I saw his serious expression. I could have sworn he was smirking a while ago…
"For some reason, girls like that are very violent. I prefer someone who is more… graceful…" He trailed off and continued mumbling. I have never seen this side of him before. Actually, this is just my first time talking to him, since I always run away when he initiates a conversation. After an awkward pause, I thought that maybe he missed one detail.
"Maybe you approached them the wrong way? I hope you didn't start off by saying 'Nice legs'." In a split second, his eyes widened. I, too, came to a sudden realization, causing me to drop my water bottle. It was capped, thankfully.
"Eureka! I could give a girl a list of 100 reasons as to why I love her!"
"Eureka! A human's ear is the same size as the nose! No wonder I always draw ears too small."
Silence.
"We are not on the same wavelength, it seems."
"Shut up, Oshitari."
"What's this about drawing? You're an artist?"
"N-now's not the time, honey." I turned around frowning, slightly annoyed, and unfortunately flushed.
"I think artists are deep and understanding." I could feel him smirking. Cue blush.
"Actually, no. I'm horrible at understanding people's feelings. And you! Oh wait. You're a male. I suppose that's natural?"
"Normally, I earn a punch when a girl hears me say something like that."
"What kind of girls does he talk to?" I thought. To be honest, I never thought I would hear him say anything loud enough to earn an exclamation mark. Putting that aside, I think it would be very romantic if a boy came up with 100 positive things about me. This Yuushi guy is very intelligent.
"There's a girl in my class…" I started, careful about what I was saying.
"Oh yes, Name!!"
"What the- Do you know every single girl in this school?!"
"All of them have introduced themselves to me~" I made a "tch" sound; I'm always left out. Resuming the conversation, I explained to him about how he could easily get the perfect woman by giving Name those 100 reasons. In fact, Name was so amazing, we could've come up with 1000 of her positive aspects. Anyway, if I were to state a conclusion, I would say that this experience taught me:
Oshitari and I are both very optimistic, positive, romance-loving and passionate teenagers. Either that or he always acts like that with girls. In any case, I'm not in any position to judge him.
Two minutes later, Oshitari Yuushi was confessing.
Well, good luck to him. Meanwhile, I sketched the scene from the shadows, since cameras were not allowed. I took note of how awesome Oshitari's hair is. Rather than that, it was amazing how easily he created the perfect atmosphere. Telling myself it was because of his captivating voice, I continued drawing the two, only to be disturbed by a midget. The red-head was none other than Mukahi Gakuto.
"Yo, Mika!!!" He practically shouted. Ah, he called me by my name…
"Hey Gakuto! Don't you have detention?" I replied with equal energy.
"Haha! I ran away!"
"That's nice! Even though you'll get in worse trouble… But that's nice!"
"I know! I'm so cool!"
"Oshitari is confessing. Isn't that cute?"
"Yuushi?! Seriously?! Cool!"
And thus, we watched them together.
"100… Your scent is like that of strawberry muffins. Will you grant me the honor of being your boyfriend?"
Upon Oshitari's success, Gakuto and I were in tears. It was that touching. I was kind of jealous though; no one would accept me like Name accepted Oshitari. Nevertheless, I prayed for the newlyweds- I mean, the new couple's happiness. Gakuto accused Oshitari of stealing the idea from some cheesy movie. Now that I think about it, it does seem familiar…
As the school day ended, Yuushi was once again in front of me, expressing what seemed like his gratitude.
"Thank you for today."
"For suggesting Name?"
"Excuse me, but she was not some spur-of-the-moment crush."
"Then what other useful thing have I done?"
"The eureka moment."
There was that same awkward silence again.
"Okay, fine. I'm not sure but some things trigger completely different thoughts." I felt my face heat up for some reason. I told myself it was simply because a male has never said anything that serious to me.
"Um… you're welcome~!" I sang, hoping to undeepen the deep atmosphere. It was then I realized that I get myself into awkward situations a lot. I was once told that nothing is ever awkward, you just think it's awkward and thus make it awkward. I should really fix that part of myself… I skipped away to meet my friends at the gate. Upon mentioning Oshitari, none of them were able to remember who this man was. They expressed no interest in this romance-obsessed and sappy boy, when I had another great realization.
These friends of mine are probably the ones Oshitari described as violent.
Boring, wasn't it? But the Gakuto part is my ideal conversation. I love going "OMG SRSLY" X3 Though honestly. if i ever talked to Oshitari, I would be a lot more stiff and embarrassed. How can you be normal next to such a sexy thing? Anyway, thank you very much for reading! Or skimming! (You know, my indents are showing...)
