Chapter 1

Not really me...

No, I don't think of me with someone like him...

He would be better off with my sister than with me, I mean she's much more outgoing and me, well, ….I'm too shy...and I'm always relaying on her for everything, I want to be stronger but...I just can't.

"Ryou!" I looked up from my fortune cards to find Nagisa running up to me with Kotomi and Tomoyo. They all seemed happy about something.

I smiled at them and walked the rest of the way up to them shoving my cards in my pocket, "Hey girls." I brushed a piece of my hair behind my ear, "What's up?"

Tomoyo smiled creepy like at me, "Why Ryou, how come you never told us that your sister was dating the famous delinquent Tomoya Okazaoi."

"Uh..."

"You must be very happy for your sister, Ryou-chan." Kotomi said smiling at me while placing a hand on my shoulder and gave me a hug.

"Um..."

"Yeah, I mean your sister looks very happy with him and everything." Nagisa squealed with joy giving me a bear hug.

"Ah..."

"They look so CUTE TOGETHER!" they said in union while Tomoyo waved her phone in my face with a picture of Onee-chan and Tomoya. Onee-chan was kissing him on the cheek while he was holding two ice cream cones, they did seem happy...I wonder if...

"Ryou-chan, are you okay?" I heard Kotomi say.

"Why are you sad?" asked Nagisa while Tomoyo nodded and rubbed my back.

I felt a few tears coming down my cheeks. I wiped them away, "It's nothing...I'm just happy for Onee-chan, that's all." I said while excusing myself to go to the bathroom.

Once I was in there I let them come down. It hurt to see the one you loved with someone you cared about dearly, especially if that someone was you own older twin sister. I cried until I heard the class bell. I stood up from the ground, washed my face, smooth out my clothing, brushed my hair with my fingers, and walked out the door with my cards in my hand.

While I was walking to class I bumped into Youhie Sunohara, "Oh excuse me, Sunohara-kun, I'm terribly sorry." I bowed at him.

"Huh? Class Pres, what are you doing going to class late?" he asked tilting his head to the side. He seemed to be skipping or he was just late like I was.

"Oh I was in the bathroom when I heard the bell ring." I nervously laughed.

He smiled at me while putting a hand on his hip and bent down only to wave a finger at my face, "Are you sure you weren't just skipping class."

"No no no, you got it all wrong." I replied quickly while waving my hands wildly. I heard him laugh and I quickly looked down at the floor already feeling the blood rushing to my face.

"You're so cute when you get all freaked out like that." he smiled.

I smiled, "T-thanks." I shuddered when I felt him put an arm around my shoulders. What is this feeling again?

"Come on let's go to class together." he gave me a big goofy grin while pulling me along with him to our classroom.

"Okay." I giggled. He then put his hands in his pockets and I felt the urge to wrap my arms around him and just hold him close but that would be something a couple would do, so I just held my cards tightly in my hands just listening and watching him smile and laugh at the fun he had experienced with Tomoya-kun over the years...was enough for me.
