-Spin-off of Forgotten; CxN pairing (My first time to write for the pair xD) It was a sudden random idea… xD Enjoy~

Chapter 1

"How did your mother meet your father?" a friend asked Yuri Hikarigaoka.

After the teacher announced the subject for their English essay, family, the class had been talking about it. That was one question she hadn't asked her father. Her father would say snippets about her mother, but the whole story... well, he hadn't told her. If he ever did, she had forgotten about it.

When she got home, she immediately rushed to her father's study. "Daddy!" she exclaimed as she swung the door open, "Can I ask you a question?"

Nozoumo lowered the paper in his hands to see his daughter. He drew a small smile and asked her, "What is it?"

Silence.

"How did you and mommy meet?" she finally asked.

He stared blankly at her. After almost a minute she lowered her gaze and frowned inwardly. She was about to go out when suddenly, she was halted by his voice, "Why are you walking away? Don't you want to hear the answer?"

She gave her father a wide grin and made the excuse, "I was just closing the door."

He asked, "Where do you want me to start?"

"From the beginning, when you first met mommy," she replied, all her attention focused on him. She clicked the record button of the recording device. She was too lazy to write, and she wanted to listen without worrying that she'd forget a word.

"Well, we first met during junior high," he began narrating, "I just came from France. Since I came from an exclusive boarding school, I was really eager to go to school. I would have a so-called normal school life. Being a Frenchman, I treated the girls too well and the guys were… well, guys. I didn't really mind your mother back then. She was, well, obsessed with your Uncle Kanata. On the other hand, I was obsessed to crush him since he was the most popular among the ladies, the perfect kid in class. I even chased your Aunt Miyu since she was his greatest weakness. From then on, we were accomplices. The agreement was always: 'I take Miyu. You take Kanata.' We were really foolish back then. I can even remember our first plan…"

~Flashback~

"Chris, this is Nozoumo, copy."

"Nozoumo, this is Chris, over."

-pause-

Yuri remarked, pausing her father's story-telling, "Walkie-talkies? Aren't those for kids?"

"Yes… I told you we were foolish," her father said, oppressing the urge to laugh at the memory.

-continue-

Christine informed, "Target 1, Kanata-kun is one meter radius away from Target 2, Miyu-chan."

Nozoumo corrected, "Idiot, it's only two feet."

"What!? I cannot allow that." And she starts her soliloquy.

"'Kanata-kun, wait for me, my love~'

'Hahaha! Catch me if you can.'

Then, she gets a grip of his hand but she accidentally tripped. Kanata-kun would catch her but they fell on the floor with her on top of him.

'I'm sorry, Kanata.'

'I don't mind, Miyu. As long as it is you…'

And then they kiss and elope and soon church bells would be ringing. ARGGGH! That makes me SO outrageous!"

-end of flashback-

"She usually does her one-person dramas whenever someone comes near him or attempt touching him," he informed, "Good thing, Miyu-chan had survived being her friend and rival. There was one notable plan too. It was ingenious yet insensitive. It almost succeeded."

"Almost?" her tone was dripping with curiosity.

Nozoumo affirmed, "Yes, but we were also the ones who 'repaired' it..."

~Flashback~

"Let's write Kanata-kun a letter saying that Miyu-chan doesn't want to be with him anymore. Same goes with Miyu-chan," she suggested. She was about to get a piece of paper and a pen; suddenly, Nozoumo halted her. "Isn't it a bit harsh?"he asked.

"Our goal will be nothing if we don't hurt them," Christine answered, sticking to what she wanted to happen, "Besides, we've been acting like stooges. Don't you think our little comedy show should bring some drama?"

Nozoumo thought Christine was going overboard. They're their friends but they're also rivals. What should they do? While thinking, Christine was already scribbling the notes.

The next day, they found Miyu and Kanata away from each other. They probably had read the letters. They looked so glum that even Aya, Nanami, and Santa thought they were suicidal already. Christine and Nozoumo were constantly nagged by their consciences. When they had their lessons, the pink-haired girl passed a note to Nozoumo:

Hey Nozoumo-kun, I think we should apologize and tell the truth. I have this nasty feeling at the pit of my stomach whenever I see them or reminded about that.

~Christine

Immediately after reading, he scribbled his reply:

I agree with you. You shouldn't have done that. I told you it was harsh. Sometimes, you have to listen to me.

-Nozoumo

The note was returned to her but she still wrote. What is it this time?

You should have stopped me, stupid! You even helped me write those letters.

~Christine

She passed it to him. In the inside, he was offended. He wrote back:

If you didn't stick to what you wanted, none of this would have happened!

-Nozoumo

RAWR! (Then, he drew an ugly monster beside it)

She read it and suppressed her supposed-to-be laugh into a soft giggle. She replied:

Your drawing sucks! Hahahaha!! (She drew a laughing face) What a shame for a pretty face. Let's just apologize!

~Christine :D

Then, she let out another quiet giggle before passing it to him. When he received the note, he snickered as silent as he could. When he faced the board, he saw that the whole class' gazes were directed to him and Christine.

"I saw you passing notes to each other. Is this a prelude to another rendezvous?" the teacher asked, rolling her eyes inwardly.

The two smiled sheepishly. "I actually asked him about the 2nd problem. I didn't quite get it," Christine lied. The teacher bought it and explained the question again. He mouthed, "Nice going Hanakomachi!"

She just gave him a curt nod as a sign of gratitude.

-end of flashback-

"I still have the note with me," Nozoumo said as he fished a yellowish paper from his drawer. He gave it to his daughter. As she read it, she laughed and pointed out, "Your monster looks so funny."

Well, he let out a small chuckle and went on, "Yeah… I thought she was right after years had passed. Then, we went to apologize to them. They both laughed at us. They told us that they knew the note wasn't from any of them. They said that it was too dramatic to be Miyu or Kanata. They knew each other too well. They just had a misunderstanding that time but eventually they reconciled. We, on the other hand, wanted to melt instantly due to the embarrassment."

Yuri's stomach grumbled. "Let's pause at this part and continue after dinner. Let's make it fast since you still have things to do, right?" her father said.

The girl just nodded and hit the pause button, and followed her father to the dining room. Man, she didn't notice she was that hungry already. She smiled at the things her father told her. They were really crazy and her curiosity level was rising at this point. 'I so can't wait,' she told herself.

Author's Note: Ahhh… I thought I won't have ideas after Forgotten but Crazy here popped out of nowhere. So what do you think? Good? Bad? Boring? Crazy? Reviews and ConCrit are very welcome. I better know what's on your mind so review if you want to. I hope you like it. I'll be writing and posting Chapter 2… soon (whenever that is). So that's all folks!

[Gosh, I think this fic is so horrible xc]

Take care!
