I let my cousin type a story for her birthday...a made some changes but it's mostly her.

I smiled at the small Japanese girl at the end of the hallway talking to her best friend, Abby about some history project. I noticed the way she smiled when she saw me, the way her blue no-purple, no well, whatever color her eyes were shining. How happy she had been talking about that history project. I couldn't help but notice how short her shorts were...and how short Abby's were. Hey I'm a guy, sue me. I smiled at her and made my way toward her. "Hey, babe," I said sweetly kissing her temple. "Think we can get outta here?" She giggled in response and told Abby that she'd be right back. She led me into another hallway and smiled. "Look, you're sweet and all but-" Kuki's eyes turned glassy and she frowned at that word.

She hated that word.

Hated it with a passion. "B-But?" she said nearly crying.

"But a blonde girl kissed me today-" I began. Truth is a blonde girl didn't kiss me. I caught a blonde guy staring at Kuki with a dreamy look on his face. I didn't know the guy's name but I knew the look. It was the same look Kuki gave him whenever he passed by or talked to her, which is a lot. It was the same look he gave her when he was 10 and too stupid to tell her that he liked her. It was the same look I gave her and Heinretta. I know I shouldn't be looking at her like that, but not only is she pretty, but she's smart and fun.

That's beside the point though. The point is that someone as amazing as Kuki deserves someone who won't look at other girls that way...and she was the only person he looked at that way. Ever.

"And you kissed back didn't you?" I lightly frowned at her. Her eyes welled up with what only could be tears and frowned. "How-how could you! Y-you said th-that y-you a-and I," she said unable to finish because of her tears.

"A pretty girl kissed me. Is it wrong that I kissed back? That's what I'm supposed to do, right?" I asked confusion. I didn't want to do this to her, but I felt like I had to.

"NOT WHEN YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND! Y'don't do that! It's not right!" she said through her tears. I attempted to wipe her tears away but only to have her growl at me. I didn't want to see her crying. She was Kuki Sanban. She wasn't supposed to cry. Never, ever. "Don't touch me," she snarled venomously at me. She turned around and stormed away. I knew that she would find that blonde guy and probably hate me forever, but being able to see her happier with someone better than me is probably worth it. Probably.
