Chapter 2
A small ringing disturbed me from my slumber. I slowly opened my eyes to hear Noboru's alarm clock. As my vision cleared, I noticed all the covers fell off the bed, Noboru-san lying on his back, my right leg resting on his stomach and my arms embracing his chest. My head was leaning onto his. Noboru-san flinched and then fluttered his eyes open. He widened his eyes as his cheeks flushed when he noticed what position we were in. My cheeks flushed also.
"U...um, I guess I rolled on you in my sleep. Gomen no sai. I move around a lot in my sleep. Plus I'm not use to sharing a bed." I explained to him nervously.
~I'm sorry~
He laughed nervously.
I quickly got off him and dressed in his bathroom. He got dressed in his bedroom. For odd reasons my heart was pounding. I put on my uniform and my usual stuff.
After that, me and Noboru-san walked to school together; close, side by side. Luckily, his parents already went to work.
I slid open the door to Mr. O's class. I noticed Anko's face. Noboru-san told me her name. My lips curved into a smirk. I threw my bag onto my desk and walked up to her.
"Oh my Miss Uehara! What happened to your pretty little face?" I asked her patting her bruised area, more like smacking it.
"Did you get into a fight?" I asked innocently.
Then I laughed.
She smacked my hand away and glared at me. I smirked even more.
"What happened to you and Yoshikawa last night?" She asked aloud.
"You two disappeared."
I chuckled as the class got quiet and listened. I played along with her game.
"Oh a lot of things!" I said louder.
"Where to begin?"
"I spent the night at his house, we both saw each other naked, we played with one another all night, so only got a couple of hours of some Z's."
"Try to imagine what happened."
I laughed as I sat down. I noticed Noboru's flustered look. I didn't technically lie. I just twisted up the truth. I wanted to see how perverted Anko was. Two other classmates walked up to me. I believed they were Kikuchi and Murai.
"What really happened between you two?" Murai asked.
I laughed again.
"Well, I rescued Noboru-san from his bullying. He ended up naked. Then I showed him my body to reveal the abuse it received. Noboru-san suggested I'd stay at his house, we ended up playing video games all night." I laughed again.
"I figured at much." Kikuchi said, while pushing up his glasses with his middle finger.
"You know what the class is gossiping about right?" Murai asked.
"That Noboru-san and I had sex?"
"So? Let the little pervs think what they want."
"It's their fault for jumping into conclusions."
"Why should I care?"
Murai sighed.
"You are something Amaya."
I smiled at him.
"Thanks for worrying about me though." I teased.
His cheeks heated up. He turned his head the other way.
"Whatever, I wasn't worrying about you."
I didn't believe him. So I teased him further. I gently grabbed his face and pulled it very close to mine, so he gazed deeply into my eyes.
"That hurt Kunio-san."
"I was really happy about you being worried about me."
"You broke my fragile heart."
I lightly placed my lips onto his, barely touching it. Murai's face was ten shades darker. My lips smirked as it parted from him. I laughed aloud. Kikuchi, Noboru-san and Onizuka collapsed onto the floor.
"Ya right! You don't care about me at all!"
Murai tightly grasped my collar angrily. I saw a vein throb.
"You can't just toy around a man's feelings like that!"
"Ha! What feelings? You're the one that denied your feelings for me."
Murai opened his mouth, but closed it.
"Cat got your tongue?"
"How do you do that?"
"It's called outsmarting your opponent." I told him.
Murai let go of my collar and sighed. What he did next really caught me off guard. He actually kissed me! My eyes widened as he parted from my lips.
"There, payback." He told me quietly.
"You've got some balls." I smiled at him.
"Heh."
Then I laughed at his face.
"What the hell is so funny?" He asked angrily.
"Your lips are red from my lipstick!"
The class started laughing along with me. Murai quickly wiped his mouth with his arm as he blushed out of embarrassment. Onizuka started class one everyone was quiet and in their seats.
As Onizuka taught the class, I noticed Anko's delighted smirk from the corner of my eyes. As I thought about it, a strange old lady came busting into our classroom. Her face expression was furious. She angrily talked with Onizuka. I slightly jumped when my name was called. I stood up and walked to the front of the class. The old lady checked me out up and down.
"This is Mrs. Uehara. She's Anko's mother." Onizuka whispered into my ear.
I was forced to follow her to the principle's office. I stood in front of Mrs. Sakurai's desk.
"Great to see you again." I greeted her.
"It's always a pleasure to see you again." She replied back.
"Let's get down to business. I was informed that Miss Kimura was bullying Miss Uehara yesterday after school hours." Sakurai explained.
"Bullshit." I mumbled.
"Excuse me young lady." Anko's mom told me.
"Watch your tongue." She basically demanded me.
"Who are you to tell me what to do?" I asked facing her.
"I am the president of the PTA." She bragged to me.
"Pft, you call that a job? Go get a real one then you can brag to me."
"Excuse me! I would like for you put her parents on the phone immediately! She is rude and behaviorally inadequate. This young lady bullied my poor innocent Anko."
"Good luck finding my parents."
"Why?"
"They're dead."
I heard Mrs. Uehara let out a gasp.
"Yes, Miss Kimura's parents died in a fatal automobile accident a year ago tomorrow." Mrs. Sakurai explained.
"As for Anko, she's not as innocent as you take her for. She's actually a bitch."
"Yesterday, Anko came home from school. She told me she was doing after school activities. When she left, this young lady cornered her saying she didn't like how she looked and punched her in the face." Mrs. Uehara pointed towards me.
Mrs. Sakurai waited for my response.
"Alright, first, call me Amaya, not young lady, got it old hag?"
"Next, that story is complete bullshit. The only "activity" she was doing was bullying. I admit I don't like her face, but I didn't tell her that and I did indeed punch her in the face."
"After school ended, I decided not to go back home, so I explored the school. As I walked past the gym entrance, I heard moaning and groaning. I thought maybe this place was haunted, so I checked it out. When I did, I saw your so called innocent daughter bullying my friend Mr. Yoshikawa. Your daughter and her two friends had stripped my friend naked, took pictures of him and did all sorts of perverted things to him. I punched her in the face to protect Mr. Yoshikawa."
"Now which story sounds more truthful?"
I leaned against the wall, crossing my arms over my chest. I stared at the principle.
"Ha! This young lady!"
I gave her a glare.
"Ahem! Amaya probably made up that story from the top of her head! My Anko would never do such a thing!"
I sighed in irritation.
"I didn't want it to come to this because it will give you total shock, but cornered me into it."
I took out my cellphone and scrolled to my pictures. I then gave my phone to Mrs. Sakurai, so she can flip through them. I then notice Noboru-san and Anko standing outside the door. I opened the door and grabbed Noboru-san. I gave Anko one last smirk before pushing Yoshikawa into the office and slammed the door behind me.
I heard an "oh my!" escape Mrs. Sakurai's mouth.
"This is evidence of Anko bullying Mr. Yoshikawa in the same way Miss Kimura explained."
"Those pictures are a fake!"
"You can't digitally edit photos taken by a camera phone. Even if you could, I don't know how." I told her. "I told her.
"You are giving me far too much credit." I laughed.
"Just in case this wasn't proof enough..." I paused as I turned towards Yoshikawa.
I stripped him down revealing the abuse Anko gave him.
"This is my last evidence."
I smiled as Noboru-san blushed and covered himself up.
"You can tell its Anko's handwriting and look at all the bruises and scratches."
"Now do you believe me Mrs. Uehara?" I asked her kindly.
Mrs. Uehara just stared at Noboru-san in horror.
"I told you it would give you complete shock. I didn't REALLY want to ruin the image you have of your daughter, but since it involved me and my friend I had to do what's right."
"Miss Kimura showed me concrete evidence of Anko's true colors. I believe you and Anko owe Miss Kimura and Mr. Yoshikawa an apology. I'm afraid I will have to suspend Miss Uehara for a few days due to violation of the student code of conduct."
"You are dismissed Amaya, Noboru and Mrs. Uehara. Please bring Anko to my office immediately."
I quickly opened the door and grabbed Anko as she silently walked away.
"She's already here, Mrs. Sakurai." I gave her and Anko and huge smile.
She sent death glares at me.
"I always win." I whispered to her.
I heard a growl escape her lips. I pushed her towards the front of Sakurai's desk. I quickly grabbed Noboru-san's hand and quickly ran out of the office. I silently laughed to myself. I stopped and rested outside Onizuka's classroom door.
"Wow Amaya-chan! You were amazing! How did you know to take pictures of the bullying?" Noboru-san asked me excitedly.
"I had a gut feeling that she would try to get me back, so I took some pictures just in case." I laughed.
"It just turned out I was right. She seemed like the type of person who is never satisfied until she wins and gets her revenge or her way. Now the bitch will reap what she soe."
"I absolutely hate bullying; people causing other people physical pain just to ease their internal devastation. It makes me sick."
After I said that, I was embraced tightly. This attack caught me off guard so I fell backwards onto the floor, lying on my back. I slowly sat up to gaze down at Noboru-san. He lied in my lap embracing me happily.
"Arigatou gozaimasu, Amaya-chan. You did this all for me. I highly appreciate it. Nobody ever has done anything for me. You are the first person to do so and I really thank you."
I smiled down at him as I gently grazed his head with my hand; patting him.
"Daijoubu desu yo, Noboru-san." I whispered to him.
He got off me and grabbed my hand; pulling me up off the ground and onto my feet. I tightly held onto his hand.
"How about we skip the rest of the day, since school is almost over anyways? I spent most of my day inside the prin's office that I got sick of school." I suggested.
He simply nodded.
"Anywhere you go I will gladly follow." He replied to me.
I smiled and ran to the front doors of the school. As I opened the doors, I dropped my stuff and gazed in front of me in horror. I felt my body start to tremble vigorously.
"What's the matter, Amaya-chan?" He asked me.
"I've missed you so much, Amaya. You haven't been home since yesterday."
"M...mother." I whispered underneath my breath.
"Mother?" Noboru-san asked me.
"Now I know where you've been. You've been with that boy haven't you?"
"I think it's time you come home and spend time with your family. We all need to have a heart to heart chat."
My heart raced as my feet walked towards her on their own. My mind was blank; it wasn't processing right. As I felt my mother's tight embrace on my wrist, I yelped as I snapped back to the horrible reality. I was pulled and thrown roughly into her black car.
"I better not catch you with my daughter again. Do you hear me young man?"
My mother slapped her car door as she got in and sped off. I glanced back at Noboru-san. His face was frightened; as if he saw the eyes of the devil or maybe his presence. I waved to him goodbye and sat back down; frightingly awaiting my horrible punishment to come once I step inside that hell.
