Heyyyy! Sorry that I haven't updated my other story but I won't abandon it. I just got sucked into continuing this one that I started ages ago, and I always find the going back to school month the worst so I'm frantically trying to keep up with the smart ones in my class as I like to be a smart person. In other words a nerd – I hear you say and yes – is my answer. Exactically like a nerd lol.
Ah well, i better get on with the story. No point saying all this if there's no story to follow up. I tried to make it longer and I'm proof reading it as its being typed. What can I say? Paper is versatile. I can write in class in my A 5 notebook the next paragraph and no-one suspects a thing. Lol.

Rima's POV:
The Fair was in town, it was the day before New Year's Eve and all was going well. I planned to surprise Amu with this valuable piece of information as she had still yet to get Tadagay a present but that was when he showed up with the same news for Amu. Problem is, he got there before me
"How dare you waltz (lol, geddit?) in and take over my spot as event organiser and being Amu's friend. I suppose that the jack wants his old position of being queen then?" I challenged him. We argued almost daily, now it was at the point where cupcakes could make a full blown argument case.
I didn't spare a single thought for Yaya in the corner, shoving her face full with these 'cupcakes'. She opened her mouth and drew a deep breath to do no less than inhale my sweet delicacies, tainted with 'his' puddings. But then she did something unexpected.
.
She spoke
"you obviously worked hard on these and it shows through in your cooking," she ran on in critic mode, oblivious to the electric sparks flying between us. "But Rima, you could definitely use a hand from Nagi on your shortbread, "she stated. He looked at me consolingly and smiled, happy to be of help. That boy was so sickeningly sweet, he had to be fake. I knew it in my gut the first time I saw him drooling over Amu, that he was no good for her.
One thing I have learned is to trust gut feelings and from that moment on my only objective was to get Amu to (a/n or Amuto) trust me enough to loose him. Ever Tadagay seems to like him?! Thankfully I came around again in time to here the next bit of Yaya's rare lectures.
"Although, Nagi, I'm quite surprised. You usually add an extra ingredient to your food, but today's was quite bland. Even if well made, you didn't show your true potential. I'm sure Rima can help you take that next step forward with a little boost." She winked and flitted off, leaving us to decipher her impossible meanings.
"Wow. I've never seen her talk so much without taking a snack break," chortled a bemused Kukai. I lunged for Nagi in shock that the rowdy soccer player had crept up behind me without a sound. "When did you get here?" I accused him. To be honest, I was happy that he hadn't left me alone with Nagihiro but I was still peeved off at him for scaring me all the same.
"I came in with Yaya and I'll be leaving with her again shortly," he stated casually. "We're meeting Utau for a Ramen eating contest again. Yaya can't beat me this time." My heart sank a mile under the floor. As soon as I think about being alone with Nagi, my blood starts to boil. I had a mind to ask him to stay, or at least take Nagihiro with him.
My last glimmer of hope faded as rapidly as Pepe's voice. The cold, unfeeling thoughts in my head must have echoed on my face, for when I turned around, Nagi flinched before speaking. "I'm free now if you want to come over to my house," he offered, waiting anxiously for a reply.
"For what?" I questioned hesitantly, although I must have come across more obnoxious than oblivious, because he answered rather unsure. "To make New Year's treats?" I heaved a sigh of relief and ... disappointment. It was so silly I could have laughed but to be honest, I wished that he didn't have to have a reason to invite me over. Then I started to get annoyed, thinking how he'd never bothered to invite me around before. (That's cuz he was afraid that you would lock him up in one of the rooms and leave him there, gagged and bound to a chair. Lol)
"Oh," I sighed pointedly. He laughed at my crestfallen face.
"Or do you have something else planned with your family?"
"They wouldn't notice if I got carried back in a coffin." (Emo Rima!! Help.)
"Well good, because Yaya wouldn't care either." I was strangely at ease with going over to my sworn enemies' house. I contemplated over this fact whilst gathering my items and came to the conclusion that because Amu wasn't around, there was nothing to fight about.
Silently we made our way down the poolside and out the glass doors, taking care to lock it all up. Then we made our way to Nagi's house. That's where the fun began. ...

I love sarcasm.

Yayyyy! It is done. I have the next chapter nearly almost finished bar one or 2 lines so I'll update tomorrow. I am trying to think of what Yaya and Kukai do at a fair in my other story but all the stuff i've come up with so far only suits this story. Damn. Please help if you would be so kind as to what they could do.
Don't worry, i have a story plot made for this one so it shold be quicker to write. Lol.
