"Hm… what am I gonna do now…? I still haven't found the perfect present for—"
"Oi, what are you talking about, Len?" I said towards my blond-haired best friend.
Ah, hello there, good morning/afternoon/evening/night to… whoever I'm talking to… Anyway, my name is Rin, Rin Kagamine. I'm fourteen years old, I love music & oranges, I have a strange fascination for road rollers, and… that's it.
What, were you expecting a much grander self-introduction?
"Oh, nothing, Rinny! I was just talking about… our History assignment!" Len said.
I raised an eyebrow. "Um… does anything about 'Oda Nobunaga' mention 'a perfect present' for someone? Ah, I see…" I said with a playful grin."… You want to give someone a Christmas present, right?"
= Len's Point-of-View =
"Ah, I see…" My best friend (also my crush, but don't ever tell her about it!) Rin Kagamine said with a playful grin."…you want to give someone a present?"
How come Rin's so sharp about love when I don't want her to be? You probably get my point… somehow. Oops, forgot to introduce myself. My name's Len Kagamine, I'm fourteen, I love music & bananas, I have an odd fascination for road rollers, and I have the same last name as my best friend. Yup, I'm totally normal.
Anyway, I cleared my throat uncomfortably, trying to keep myself somehow composed. "Y-Yeah, so w-what about it?" I asked. She giggled in reply.
"Oh, Lenny, how have you grown! You're a 'shota' no more!" she said.
I growled. I hate being called 'shota'. Trust me; you would not want a nickname like that.
"La, la, la! My best friend is finally interested in girls~! I'm so proud~!" She sang in a slightly off-tune voice that mocked me and my boyish pride. Well, there's no use trying to surprise her. Better just tell her the truth…
"Actually, I'm searching for a Christmas gift. For you." I muttered while chuckling.
= Rin's Point-of-View =
"F-For me…?" I said. I'm sure I've started blushing. To tell you honestly, I haven't, er… found the perfect gifts for Len yet… We share the same birthday, for your information. And this year I've procrastinated on finding gifts for him, again…
"Um, I haven't found any for you, too, you know, just yet…" I said embarrassedly. Len crossed his arms and closed his eyes. It's a habit of his. After what seemed to be a minute or two, he opened his eyes and smiled at me. "I got it!" He exclaimed.
= Len's Point-of-View =
"I got it!" I exclaimed.
"Really, what? What'd you thought of?" Rin replied.
"Well," I said, "since both of us haven't done any gift-searching yet, how about we shop for each other's presents this weekend?"
She smiled. "Sure, that makes picking out the right gift much easier!" Rin said.
Well, well, how about that? I get to shop for her present, she comes with me, and I come with her. Basically, it feels more like a date than just Christmas shopping! Oh, wait.
"Oh, crabs, I totally didn't see that coming!" I said, shocked. Rin stood up.
"Oh, that's right! We have to shop for two presents!" She said.
Um… not just that… I know that we also share the same birth date (creepy, yes, but Rin's older than me by a few hours and she was born in a different hospital, so that doesn't make us twins) and I know I have to shop for two presents, but hey, just the 'date' part made me blush hard.
Rin giggled. "So, then it's a date!"
Great… expect that from my best friend Rinny, the only person who'd be so sweetly cruel to rub salt on your wounds.
= Rin's Point-of-View =
"So, then it's a date!" I said. Why is Lenny blushing? Is he feeling alright? Maybe he's sick or something…
But, I'm so excited! First time going out with Len on the day before Christmas Eve! You know, because it's become really well-known here and everywhere else that when a boy and a girl go out on Christmas or any days before that, it's guaranteed to be a romantic one!
Well, don't tell him this, but I've also taken a different kind of interest towards Lenny. You know, the, opposite-sex type of interest? Like how it feels to date him, or hug him more affectionately, or k-kiss—Ah, it's too embarrassing!
Ah, but I don't know if he really returns my feelings or anything, because he's so dense and all that…
… Tell him about any of this, and you're as good as dead, got that?
"Uh, s-sure, whatever makes you happy." He said. Well, well, this was quite the turn of events!
I can't wait for this weekend!
= Len's Point-of-View =
Well… I can't wait for this weekend to be over… Sigh…
At least I don't have to panic anymore… right?
