Me? Own Gakuen Alice? Ha, yeah, no.
--The Puppet Show--
-By: Heartbroken Confession-
"Life's a puppet show, and I'm the puppeteer. Simple as 1, 2, 3."
--Act 1--
-Scene 1-
It was summer, and this was Paris. The sky was blue, and the air was full of art and sophistication. What else could you expect from an amazing place like Paris?
I inhaled, pulling open the dark lavender curtains, revealing the bustling streets below me. I sighed, leaning on my elbow I glanced down.
Little pawns in the game I like to call life.
Why were people always so predictable?
I glared down; a suspicious looking man, suspicious looking coat, glancing around uneasily.
A wealthy looking woman, her bag carelessly slung over her shoulders.
Gee, I wonder what's going to happen. I swung open my window and screamed down below.
"Pierre! Do you think you could send up wonderful bouquet up here today?" I yelled down to the 21 year old boy who ran the flower cart below. I glanced at the suspicious man who tensed at the sudden gathering of people, staring at the girl on one of the top floors of the apartment complex. Slowly, he backed away.
"Coming right up, luciole!(1)" The friendly chestnut haired man grinned.
I flashed him a grin before shutting the window and closing the curtains. I rolled my eyes. The man had run away immediately, as predicted. Pierre had given me those creepy googly eyes again, as predicted. And the woman got away safely, completely ignorant to the danger she had been, as predicted.
Everything had gone as predicted.
Like always.
If life was a game of chess, everyone else were the pawns, and I'm the player.
--Scene 2--
Ding-Ding-Dong.
My eyes shot open and I glared at my currently vibrating Blackberry Storm. I sighed, reaching for the phone, squinting at the caller ID.
Sakura Mikan is my hot hot love :3
I scoffed, only that strange girl would set her name like that on my phone.
"What do you want at this ungodly hour?" I questioned her.
"Ungodly? Oh, Natsume, it's 1 p.m. darling," She chided.
"Thanks for the info, mother," I snorted, 1 p.m. IS an ungodly hour when auburn haired girls keep you up till 7 a.m. on the phone asking what outfit they should wear tomorrow. Pft, girls.
"Ah, well, get up sweetie poop, it's our last day in Paris! Let's make in awesome!" She cheered from the other line.
"Remind me why I haven't killed you yet? And I still need to pack up my apartment."
"Oh, I'll come help you! Be up in 3 minutes, or I'm gonna eat you."
My mouth was open to scold her, but too late, she had already hung up. I sighed.
Goodbye my peaceful life in France, and hello crazy Japan (well, crazy if everyone there is as crazy as Polka-dots).
--Scene 3--
I grinned as I threw my Swarovski jewel studded gPhone into my bag and slung it over my shoulder. Taking one quick glance out the window, I made my way out of my apartment to visit my dear friend, Natsume. He was unpredictable (unlike most other people in this world) and he was just so perfect. Thank god he's transferring to Alice Academy.
I took a quick left, hoping to get to the elevator and reach Natsume's apartment on the floor below me a little early so I could call him out on sleeping in.
"In a rush to get somewhere?" I turned around, right behind me was, of course, Imai Hotaru standing at her doorway. Oh, how unlucky could I be to have the same apartment floor as her when I was in Paris? Imai Hotaru was unpredictable, yet again, one of the few people like that in my life. But she was different than Natsume's unpredictable. I despised the girl while Natsume was awesome.
I scoffed quickly stepping into the elevator and flipping back my auburn hair.
"Yeah, somewhere where you can't steal my boyfriend."
--Scene 4--
"Anna!" I whined, god. Could she take any longer in the bathroom?
"We're gonna be late." I frowned, checking the clock, 1:13. I groaned, slamming my head against the dining room table.
"Okay Nonoko! I'm done, and I look fabulous!" Anna giggled, gliding out with her normally curly pink hair straightened and pulled into a half ponytail, her baby pink Chloé dress floating around her.
I glanced down at my own sloppy pajamas and right-out-of-bed hair. My nose cringed, I look so appealing.
"Don't you look sexy?" Anna laughed, pointing at my attire. My nose cringed.
"It's not my fault you've been hogging the bathroom since like, 9!" I stormed into the bathroom.
Oh god, I glanced at the mirror, I looked worse than I thought.
"It's okay about being late, look fabulous and the guys won't care." Anna said from the kitchen.
"Don't be late!" Koko and Yuu had said yesterday.
But they wouldn't care so much if the two girls looked fabulous, right? Right.
Because everyone was just so predictable these days.
--Scene 5--
I spun the trackball on my Sidekick LX, scrolling down my massive list of e-mails. Sighing, I twirled my short curly green hair in my left hand. Not even one from Mochu. Figures.
Glancing around, I looked for Andre through the throng of people. No luck.
I sighed. It wasn't a good thing. You know, to be cheating on your boyfriend while you were in Paris and he was stuck at home with a bad case of strep. But, he's been the one ignoring me lately anyways! I can't help it if he suddenly decides to hate me or something.
Besides, I didn't love Andre or anything, the way I cared about Mochu. He was just my kissing buddy.
Lips crashed against mine and I nearly dropped my Sidekick as the familiar smell of Abercrombie & Fitch's Fierce filled my nostrils. It was Andre.
And just like that, Mochu slipped out of my mind for a good 30 minutes. He would never know about this, why you ask? Because I had predicted so.
--Scene 6--
I grinned, flashing a seductive smile to Hayate from across the dance floor. The green haired boy smirked and headed over in my direction. As predicted.
I placed my drink down on the bar and made my way towards him.
"Shouldn't you be in bed, little girl?" Hayate asked, reminding me that it was already 2 a.m. and I had an early morning flight back to Japan.
"I'll manage," I whispered into his ear, and all talking seized.
Partially because we were too enveloped in each other's mouths to talk.
But hey, something needs to be fun in this boring game called
"The Life of Koizumi Luna."
Psh. Yeah.
--Scene 7--
"Gossip's a sin, I'm a sinner,"

Posted Saturday, August 28th, 12:45 P.M. Edited: Saturday, August 28th, 12:48 P.M.
Mood: ALittleBirdie is feeling delightful
Music: I think about you in the summertime, and all the good times we had baby...
Location:ALittleBirdie is at HOME (well. my dorm, which is home.) AT LONG LAST!
Subject: Bye bye summer in Paris, Hello homework!
Hello Alice Academy!
Miss me? Yeah, I know you did. So, yours truly, Birdie, has just returned from her fantabulous vacation in Paris. Ahhh, the beauty of France.
Okay, enough about me, more about what you want to know.
Guess who I saw at the airport?
Tangerine. Clad in an adorable pair of tall chocolate Uggs with a long Burberry jacket and a beret, I think someone looks like they just returned from Paris (more details about that next time, after I'm not suffering from jet lag, my little ones.)
Before you go all whoop-dee-doo on me, did I mention that our friend Tangerine had a hottie-hot-hottie with her? Oh goodness, I'm still melting from those crimson eyes. Too bad it already looks like Tangerine snagged him (someone sure works fast right after getting her boyfriend practically stolen) Then again, would that really stop anyone from drooling on the ground he walks on? Je ne crois pas! (2)
So, what exactly is the relationship between Crimson and Tangerine? That's for me to find out, because Alice Academy is getting a smexy new crimson eyed transfer student. Ooo la la.
Moving on to other topics! Girls of Alice Academy, get ready to be heartbroken...
Ready?
BlondieBoy is taken. Again, not even out of his relationship with Tangerine for 15 minutes and he was spotted! The academy heartthrob was seen making out with a certain Techie, Icy(should've known to keep an eye on the purple eyed vixen, right Tangerine?... Just kidding Icy! Please don't blackmail me), under the fireworks during the Summer Festival before Icy headed off to Paris. Oh woe betide my heart.
On other news, looks like summer loving is in, because the famous voices of Alice Academy, Curly and Navy seem to have found themselves two ah-dorable boyfriends (and of course, they were in Paris! The city of love! Ai Ai!). Comment mignon.(3)
Seaweed was spotted smooching some french dude at a Starbucks in Paris! That's not gonna go over well with Baldy, sweetheart.
On later news, while at a nightclub in Paris I saw Soul sucking face with BlueSky. Honey, PDA much!? Some of us like to keep our Green Apple Martinis in our stomach, have some common courtesy!
And finally, Shadow and Redd were so cute! Holding hands and walking around making kissy faces at each other. Oh, Paris. I miss you already. (And why the heck was everyone in Paris anyways? Stalking me much, you guys? JK! Love you all!)
All these popular alphas finding summer love in Paris, eh? Where's the love for little nobodies like moi? Well, no time to worry about my love life! I sense a clique war breaking out here.
This is gonna be one hell of a year.
Let's just hope I get all this french out of my head before this blog goes bilingual.
A bientôt,(4)
Birdie.

GoodNGreen: Like, No! Not BlondieBoy! Nuh-uh! I spent the entire summer thinking he was single again. OMG. KILL ME. PLEASE. And you know what? I think the Seaweed is just a confused girl you know? Maybe Baldy isn't acknowledging her enough. I've been there before, and it sucks.

Subject: Nice try, Nogi.
ALittleBirdie: Well then, Nogi, maybe the fangirls will stop trying to attack BlondieBoy. But that doesn't stop them from stalking him and stealing his trash. I would know, I see all. ;) And LucioleTech, I have a feeling you and Icy would do that same thing.
