Chapter 2
I walked by Ren's table when the bell rang, making sure he was looking by chatting loudly with my friends. When I was sure his eyes were up and looking at me, I started to swing my hips seductively and flip my hair, making it all look natural. I laughed when Amanda raised her eyebrow, giving me the signal.
I glanced at him through the corner of my eye. He was staring at me, mouth slightly open. His eyes had this glazed to them.
Okay. The score did not look good. Friends one. Me zero.
I quickly rushed out of the classroom with my friends. Apparently they saw Ren's face too.
"See! We told you!" gushed Olivia. The other two nodded. I sighed.
"I don't know you guys….." I trailed off. They just gave me knowing looks.
"Lets just wait for lunch, shall we?" suggested Amanda. The other two just raised their eyebrows at me with a smile on their faces. I just nodded with a grim look on my face.
Lunch came and my friends and I sat down at our usual table. We knew where Ren usually sat and we made sure his table had the salt. I didn't know why yet, but they did.
"Okay, Piri. Go over to Ren and ask if you can borrow the salt. When he says yes, lean down and reach across the table to get it, because we all know that he won't hand it over to you. Then add a little bit of indirect flirting," instructed Samire. I began to protest, but she just glared at me.
"Go," ordered Amanda. I nodded robotically and prepared myself.
I walked smoothly and seductively over to Ren's table. He was sitting alone since Yoh was outside with Anna and Horo was walking around the gardens with Tamoa.
I cleared my throat once I got there. He looked up, looking annoyed. Then his expression turned to confusion when he saw me.
"Yes?" he asked calmly.
"Hey Ren," I said, my voice as smooth as I could make it, "can I borrow the salt?"
He just nodded.
"Thanks!" I leaned over as far as I could to grab it. I figured out why Samire wanted me to on the way over. I guessed it gave him a good view.
I guessed right. I heard him gulp as he looked at me. I took my time reaching for it. When I drew my hand back, holding the salt, I made sure to accidently brush his hand with mine. I heard him shiver.
So far so good, I thought.
"By, the way Renny, "he looked startled by his nickname, "Ya, get used to the nickname, that is what I am going to call you," I winked. "Anyway, what I was going to say was, you were right about the math. I do need help and I think it would be a good idea for you to help me. After all, we live in the same house, and as you said, you are so good at it. So, will you help me?" I asked as innocently as I could.
He just nodded dumbly. "S-sure," he stuttered. I smirked on the inside, but made sure I just smiled. I turned away and walked back to my table. For once, I wore the smirk not him.
Ren POV
Wait, did I just stutter for that girl. And I was speechless! That is not me! I would have just played it cool and smirked. Damn right she needed my help! But all I could do is dumbly agree! Ugh, what is that Ainu doing to me??
The slightest glance at her makes me mesmerized, and what she just shot me had me completely off at dream land. I can't believe I let myself get so out of hand.
But how is it possible that she rejected me? All the girls LOVE me. And I don't blame them. I am perfect. I am powerful, strong, sexy, smart and, like I said before, SEXY!! WHY CAN'T SHE SEE THAT?? Pirika, with her big eyes, flowing hair, lovely figure, angelic face, a smile that lights up a room…. Where was I going with this again? Oh right. HOW CAN SHE NOT FALL FOR ME?? Does she have a defective brain?
I see her over there, laughing with her friends. Maybe I should go join them. Ya, maybe I will…..give her another chance to realize just how perfect I am…
Pirika POV
Okay, that was, unfortunately, a success. Okay. Friends have two points. I have zero, still. And apparently so did Ren.
"I could see his face form here! It was completely blank, like he was dreaming up a storm!" laughed Amanda.
"Well, I'm not surprised, with the plan YOU gave me!" I pointed an accusing finger at Samire. "Though, I think I went a little to far. You know how you told me to 'indirectly flirt with him,'?" They all nodded.
Olivia looked worried. "Pirika! We meant very little, hardly noticeable! Just a bit more than a little and I don't know what he would do!"
I looked frightened. "Well, do you think giving him a nickname, and then telling him I really wanted his help on my math was a bit too much?" I asked. They all sweat dropped. (A/N come work with me people. You know what I mean!)
"That depend on what the nickname was…" Samire stated grimly.
I looked sheepish. "Umm, I think it was Renny…." I looked down at the table. They all just shook their heads and began to laugh.
"That is really going to get him going on you! Who knows what he is going to do now!" laughed Amanda.
"I do!" said a scared looking Olivia. She was pointing behind me. We all turned and saw a smirking, confident looking, and at the same time nervous looking Ren strutting towards us.
