Chapter 1: Invitations

"Five more days, five more days, five more days" Sana sang loudly at home every second of the day.

"Sana, darling, shut your little mouth up!," Misako said in an annoyed tone.

"But Mama, its almost my birthday. I'm almost going to be sixteen," Sana replied.

"Yes I no and it's about time you start acting like it," Misako answered.

"No way! You only have on life and you should live it at your fullest!" Sana nearly shouted.

It was time for Sana to leave to school so she skipped the whole way cheerfully like always had the same big smile across her face. When she got to school her friends approached her and so did the love of her life, Akito.

"Hey you guys!" Sana said loudly.

"Hey Sana," Tsuyoshi and Aya said in unison.

"Yo babe," Akito said and put his arm around Sana and hugged her lovingly.

The friends talked for a while and then Fuka came in and said hello to everyone.

"Oh that reminds me you guys…I have invitations to my sixteenth birthday party," Sana said happily.

"How does Fuka coming and saying hello remind you about your invitations?" Akito said sarcastically.

"It just does Akito, gosh!" Sana whined.

"Okay, okay don't bite my head off," Akito said.

Sana gave him a glare but Akito just pretended to ignore her.

"Okay girl, give us the invitations. I call dibs on the first one to get an invitation," Fuka shouted.

"Okay Fuka, here you go," Sana said happily and gave her the invitation.

Shortly after, the bell had rung for everyone to go to class so the gang went to their class. Their first class was math and Sana was excited because she was going to give her invitations to everyone in the class.

"Okay everyone I'm turning sixteen in five days. Everyone gets an invitation," Sana said to the class.

Everyone cheered and everyone was excited. They nearly made Sana fall over to the ground. Once everyone got their invitation to the party class began and the teacher was a bit annoyed but Sana didn't care, this was going to be her big day and no one was going to ruin it for her.

For the past two days, Sana invited everyone that she knew weather she talked to them or not. The only thing she felt guilty was saying no to the people she didn't know.

"Hey Sana you done giving people your invitations?" Fuka asked.

"Almost I'll probably bring more tomorrow. Can you believe it, it's almost my birthday. Just three more days," Sana said excitedly.

It was lunch time and Fuka and Sana met the gang at the table. They were all talking and Akito kissed Sana on the cheek welcoming her to the table.

"How people have you invited?" Akito asked.

"Well I'm almost done with them," Sana replied showing him the little bit of invitations Sana still had compared to as many as she had in the morning.

"Your not inviting random people are you?" Akito asked giving her a you-better-not look.

"Of course not Akito, I'm not stupid enough to let random people who I don't even know in my house," Sana replied with a little bit of attitude.

"Are you still planning, Sana?" Aya asked softly.

"Yea I still need the food and decorations and the DJ," Sana answered.

"Well for the food there better be sushi," Akito said as a demand.

"Of course there will be sushi for my little Akito," Sana said as if she was talking to a baby.

"Don't do that," Akito said.

Sana got out her little hammer and hit him on the head.

"Ow! What was that for?" Akito shouted.

"For telling me what to do. You cant talk to me like that. If I want to say you're my little Akito then I will," Sana said harshly.

"Okay, gosh. I'm sorry," Akito said in a sarcastic tone.

When everything calmed down, the bell rung and everyone went to class. Akito walked Sana to class.

"Well here's my class," Sana said.

"Right. I always forget to stop here," Akito said with his head facing the floor.

Sana was used to Akito not really saying anything and keeping quiet sometimes but he still talks.

"So I should go in," Sana said not moving. She wanted him to kiss her but she had no clue what was going on in his mind or even if he was going to kiss her. But she still hoped. Sana didn't no why she wanted him to kiss her so bad but she did. No one was watching. The hall was empty. I guess it was just perfect timing and Sana has a feeling that Akito wanted to kiss her too even though his expression was plain.

"Wait…Sana," Akito said looking up.

"Yea Akito," Sana replied pretending to look confused.

He pressed his lips against hers softly and passionately making Sana's heart beat really fast.

They let loose and Sana smiled. Akito just looked into her eyes like he never wanted to let her go.

"I better get to class," Sana finally said. When she pulled away Akito grabbed her hand and stared at her.

"I love you," Akito said

Sana smiled. "I love you too, Akito."

He let her go and watched her go into the classroom.

Finally school was over and Fuka and Aya were going over to Sana's house to plan more for the party. When they got home Misako and Maro greeted them.

"Hello girls," Misako said happily in her little car.

"Hi Mama. Hi Maro," Sana said.

"Hi Sana's mom," Fuka and Aya said in unison.

While they were planning and munching Rei came home with decorations for the house.

"Hey Rei what did you get?" Sana asked.

"Just your decorations. We got professional chiefs and the DJ hired," Rei replied.

"Awesome! You're the best Rei," Sana said hugging him.

"Well then we're practically done," Fuka said.

"Sort of but not yet. We still have more invitations. Who did we forget?" Sana asked.

"Oh yea people…haha…I forgot," Fuka said.

The girls looked for more friends and people they knew in the year book from the year before. They found so many people that didn't get an invitation.

"Do you have enough, Sana?" Aya asked.

"Yup…see," Sana said while walking up and she pulled out a big box. It was filled with lots of invitations enough to invite the whole city.

"Wow that's a lot, Sana," Aya said shocked.

"Yea how many people are you planning to invite?" Fuka added.

"Whoever I know," Sana replied with a smile.

Fuka and Aya looked at each other but didn't say anything. When they were done with reminding Sana who she forgot to invite they just chilled and talked about girl stuff.

"So Sana.." Fuka said.

"Yea.." Sana replied.

"You and Aki are pretty close huh," Fuka said with a smile.

"Well yea he's my boyfriend," said Sana.

"Well yea but have you guys done it yet?" Fuka asked the big question. It shocked Sana a bit but she didn't show it.

"No way," Sana kind of shouted.

"Why not? I mean yea he's a total jerk but he's hot," Fuka said.

"That's not the point the point is we haven't 'done it' yet," Sana said.

"Well have you guys talked about it?" Fuka asked curiously.

That question brought flashbacks to when they got caught about to 'do it'. They never talked about it since.

"Sana?" Aya said a little worried.

"Oh…um…yea?" Sana answered.

"What's wrong?" Aya asked.

"Yea you look…guilty. Are you hiding something?" Fuka asked suspiciously.

"No," Sana said.

"Liar! What happened?!" Fuka said pointing a finger at Sana demanding to tell them her hidden secret.

"Well…we were going to 'do it' but we…sorta…got caught…like a long time ago though. But don't say anything," Sana confessed.

"Don't worry we wont Sana," Aya said putting her hand on Sana's.I

"I CANT BELIEVE YOU, SANA!" Fuka yelled.

"I no, I no. We should've done it when we were home alone," Sana said whith her head down.

"You shouldn't have done it with Aki period!," Fuka said more calm

"Why not?" Sana asked curiously.

"Its Aki!" Fuka said impatiently.

It was silent for a while. Fuka was still staring at Sana and so was Aya but Sana just looked into space remembering the time they got caught about to 'do it'. She remembered how embarrassing it was.

"Sana are you okay?" Aya asked.

"Huh? Oh yea I'm fine. I'm great. Just…thinking," Sana said.

It was time for Fuka and Aya to leave. About half an hour after they left Sana called it a night and went to bed.
