1) Not sure if Himeno will have any siblings. But, I think probably not.
2) Thanks for the reviews, it means a lot.
3) Just like everyone else, I am busy with school and work, so I try to write when I have time. Thanks for understanding!
Chapter 3
Owwwwwww! How many times do I have to crash today! Himeno thought lying on the floor with her eyes closed still shocked from the impact.
Instead of feeling cold concrete, Himeno felt a warm soft fabric.
Thump, Thump, Thump….What is that sound?? Himeno thought.
Slowly Himeno opened her eyes and lifted her head. Her pink orbs locked onto a pair of deep blue eyes.
Time stopped for a minute.
Wow…..what captivating eyes. Himeno briefly scanned the boys face. He had a creamy white complexion and dark midnight blue hair. Himeno held her breath. This boy is simply breathtaking…Himeno felt her heart beat loudly.
Himeno saw a small glint in his eyes and felt his arms move. Himeno broke eye contact and looked at his arms, which were coming up to her face. Himeno's heart was racing. THUMP, THUMP, THUMP What is he doing?!... When Himeno looked back at the boy, the glint was gone and Himeno was quickly shoved off.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayate P.O.V.
Owwwww! Hayate felt like he got smashed down by a semi-truck. That is weird…why do I feel so warm?
Hayate opened his eyes and expected to see a huge man that pummeled him to the ground. Instead, he was greeted with glassy pink eyes.
Time stopped for a minute.
Right above him was a petite girl with a face of an angel. She is gorgeous…Hayate noticed her orange tinted pink hair was cascading down the sides of her face. Hayate felt lost in her eyes.
Hayate's eyes sparkled with interest at the girl above him. He did not know why, but he wanted to hold her, smell her, touch her….Hayate slowly lifted his hands and the girl broke her gaze from him.
Hayate snapped out of his trance…What am I doing?!...Without a second thought, Hayate shoved the girl off him.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Normal P.O.V.
Himeno fell back onto her bottom for the second time that day.
"Hey! What the hell was that for?!" Himeno asked as she got up, brushing the back of her skirt.
"I could not breathe," Hayate stated simply as he rose from the ground.
"What?!"
"You were on top of me. I could not breathe. You are very heavy," Hayate spat out.
"Excuse me?! How rude! Don't you have the decency to politely ask me to get off?! You didn't have to shove me off, you jerk!" Himeno felt her blood boil.
"I could say the same about you! Don't you have the decency to not pummel people into the ground?! Why don't you watch where you're going!!" Hayate snapped.
"Me?! You're the one who just came out of that creepy alley without looking!" Himeno snapped back. Suddenly Himeno smirked. "Oh I understand now. So your one of those sick perverts who hides in dark alleys and pounces on defenseless girls!"
"Whaaaat??" Hayate stammered.
"Ha! I knew it!" Himeno declared. "I'm going to have a talk with the security of the movie theatre and notify them of creepy perverts hanging near the theatre!"
Hayate stood there shocked for a second. Himeno took this as a chance to get away from the guy getting on her nerves, and ran past him toward the entrance of the movie theatre.
Hayate snapped out of his shock.
"Hey! Wait a minute!!" Hayate ran after Himeno.
Hayate caught up to her right as she entered the carpet-floored building.
About three steps into the theatre, Himeno turned to see if the boy had followed her. Himeno's eyes widened when she found the boy right in front of her. Himeno was about to run when Hayate grabbed her hand.
-z-z-z—z-z-z-z-z-z-z!!!!! A sharp electric shock pierced through their hands.
They both retracted their hands immediately. My hand felt like it was on fire! They both thought.
Several people who wanted to get into the theatre suddenly pushed Hayate. His hand was quickly shoved and accidentally brushed against Himeno's butt just as she turned away from him.
Hayate froze. Shit…
Himeno froze. She slowly turned and faced Hayate.
Hayate gulped. She looks like she is out to kill…
Before Hayate could say anything, Himeno punched him right on his jaw and he fell straight back.
"What the hell!" Hayate yelled as he got up and rubbed his jaw. Damn she's strong…
"Pervert!" Himeno yelled back.
"That was an accident!" Hayate yelled.
Himeno knew that he was telling the truth since she saw a bunch of people run in behind him. However, she didn't let him off the hook. The guy just knows how to piss me off!...
"I don't think so pervert! You basically grabbed my ass!"
Hayate's face turned red from embarrassment and then turned to anger.
"Hey! You're the one who fell on top of me back there and didn't get off! I had to get you off me! I bet you like the idea of a man under you! You're the pervert! " Hayate knew it was not a logical explanation, but he did not want her to get the best of him. Damn she's pissing me off!...
Himeno turned crimson.
"You don't know what you're yapping about! I'm not the pervert here! You are! Besides what girl would want a puny pathetic boy like you under them!" Himeno snapped back.
Hayate turned red again for the millionth time. "WHAT?!"
"Okay, break it up you two," a security guard stepped in between them.
During their whole feud, Himeno and Hayate failed to notice the crowd that surrounded them. Himeno and Hayate glared at each other.
"Now either leave or go to the theatre if you came to see a movie," said the security guard.
Himeno gasped and looked at her watch. 7:10!
"Damnit! I'm late!" Himeno ran toward the auditorium.
Hayate watched the girl run away and sighed inwardly. What a big pain…
Ring, Ring, Ring! Hayate picked up the phone.
"What?!" Hayate snapped, obviously still frustrated from the fight with the mysterious girl.
"Yeah I'm here! I'm coming!" Hayate said and hung up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Himeno entered the auditorium and went to the back on the far right towards her seat.
"What took you so long?" Yayoi asked, "I was starting to get worried."
"I had a horrible run in with a hot-tempered jerk," Himeno explained.
Yayoi raised an eyebrow at her friend.
Himeno sighed. "I'll explain later."
Yayoi nodded and they both turned their attention to the movie.
Throughout the movie, Himeno could not stop thinking about the blue-haired boy. Grrrrrr! I don't understand why I'm thinking about that pervert! Why can't I calm down? Damnit…I finally started to control my temper and I just let it loose in less then five minutes! Damn he's so frustrating! He made me miss the previews! God I wanted to strangle him back there! The only good thing about him is his physical appearance, other than that he's a poor excuse for a man! The nerve of the guy…thinking I wanted him under me! Paaaaalease! Not in a million years would I EVER WANT A RUDE GUY LIKE HIM!
Yayoi noticed Himeno hands balled up into fists. Yayoi nudged Himeno. "Are you okay? You seem like your ready to burst."
Himeno stopped her silent rampage in her head.
"Sorry Yayoi, I'm fine." Himeno turned her attention to the screen to watch the rest of the movie.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayate swung the auditorium door open and entered. Looking around the dark theatre he finally noticed his friends waving their hands near the back on the left. He sat at the empty seat near his long time friend Goh.
"What took you so long?" Goh hissed. Hayate's two other friends Sesame and Kei looked at Hayate.
Hayate sighed. "I got into an argument with a hot-headed brat."
They all looked at him in surprise.
"Don't ask," Hayate said, "Let's just watch the movie." They all turned to the screen to watch the 007 movie.
Instead of being thankful that his friends did not poke him with questions, Hayate knew that he would have to explain later. They have all been friends since they were little kids. They have always been very close and told each other everything. People always wondered how the four were best friends, since their personalities were very different. Besides all of them being abosolutely gorgeous and had well-build bodies, their similiarities stopped there.
Hayate Wind rarely got into a heated verbal argument…especially with girls. Others knew him as having a stiff and cold personality. Hayate was usually quiet and rude, unless provoked. Besides his three close friends, no one saw much emotion from him, except for the occasional glare and bitter remark. Hayate usually kept himself busy with various forms of martial arts. Although his three best friends were good fighters, he had the reputation of being a fierce fighter with extreme skill.
Sesame Sound was always calm and gentle with people. Always offered a smile to anyone that approached him and never showed anger towards anybody. Although he did not open up to many people, he was always polite. His favorite activities were singing, playing the piano, acting and being the advice radio host at school.
Kei Light was always honest, but not always in a good way. He was always blunt and straightforward with people, not caring if they found offense toward anything he was saying. If something were on his mind, Kei would give his opinion. His friends often found him in the technology lab room working on a computer program or game.
Goh Fire on the other hand had an outgoing personality and was not as brilliant in academics as his best friends were. Opposite of his best friends, he conversed with many people at their school and received a basketball scholarship into Tokyo Academy. With his flaming red streaks in his brown hair and stunning looks, he instantly became well known as the class clown and playboy.
Hayate sighed again for the millionth time that day. During the movie, Hayate could not help but think about the pink haired girl. The girls face popped up in his mind again. Hayate shook his head to rid the image in his mind. Arghhhhhhhhhhh! Why do I keep thinking about her?!... She was strong though….Hayate subconsciously rubbed his chin. Yeah, a strong, violent, stubborn brat! I cannot believe she called me a pervert!! The nerve of that girl! Hayate clenched his fists. Just relax….You will never see that girl again anyways…
During Hayate's discussion with himself, he did not notice Sesame staring at him with a worried expression.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The lights turned on and everyone started to pile out of the auditorium. Himeno stretched her arms over her head.
"Well that was a good movie," Himeno yawned.
"I know! But it was so sad that they could not be together! They belonged together!" Yayoi exclaimed.
Himeno sweat-dropped. Just like Yayoi to think only about the romance in the movie…
"Let's grab a burger to go and head back to the dorms," Himeno said.
"Sure."
Himeno and Yayoi went to grab burgers at a fast food joint and headed back to the dorms.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hayate noticed the movie had finished when the lights lit up in the auditorium.
"So what did you think of the movie?" Goh asked his friends.
"It was good," Sesame said.
"It was loud and I think he's old for the new 007 guy," Kei stated.
They turned to Hayate, who just shrugged and muttered, "Eh, it was okay."
"Well I thought it was awesome!" Goh exclaimed as they exited the theatre.
"So where to?" Sesame asked.
"Lets head back," Hayate said, "You guys called and rushed me out, before I had time to unpack."
So they headed back towards Leafenia. When they reached the fourth floor, they were greeted with a bunch of guys moving around and unpacking. They all headed to Hayate and Sesame's dorm room, which was right across from Kei and Goh's dorm room.
Goh plopped himself onto the couch that was in the center of the room. Goh looked to his left and saw Sesame's things have already been unpacked and neatly placed. Turning his head to the right he saw ten boxes unopened and untouched.
"You were not kidding when you said you had to unpack," Goh said.
"No I was not! And you're helping me!" Hayate said while starting to unpack.
"Why me?!" Goh whined.
"Because it is your fault that I did not have time to unpack. You called me to watch a movie with you guys right when I got here!" Hayate glared.
Goh gulped. "Okay! Okay! Jeez what got on your nerves," Goh muttered as he started to open one of the boxes.
"Probably a hot-headed brat," Kei said, smirking at Hayate.
Damn, I thought they might have forgotten about that…Hayate thought.
"You didn't think that we would forget now did you Hayate?" Kei asked while grabbing a sprite from the mini-fridge.
Hayate sighed and started to tell them about his run-in with the girl. "………..then we got stopped by a security guard and then she ran off," Hayate said eyes downcast as he finished his story.
Hayate looked up to see Kei and Sesame grinning at him, while Goh was laughing on the floor.
"HAHAHAHA…you….got…hit by a girl! HAHAHAHA……how…HAHA…could she knock you down?...your the strongest out of all of us!! HAHAHA!" Goh exclaimed.
Hayate shot Goh a cold glare, which caused him to shut up and start unpacking again. "I was surprised, that's all. Plus she was more like a male bull then a girl!" Hayate snapped as he continued to unpack.
"I'm surprised you lost your cool though Hayate," Sesame said.
"I have to meet this girl that can cause our Hayate to explode within a matter of minutes," Kei smirked.
"It was nothing and I did not lose my cool! Plus I'm never going to see that girl again, so just drop it," Hayate snapped.
Sesame, Kei and Goh chuckled, but dropped the subject. Kei and Sesame sat on the couch and turned on the television as Goh helped Hayate finish unpacking.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day Himeno woke up with an interesting thought. After coming back from the bathroom, Himeno decided she should do something spontaneous before her first day of High School. But what should I do?...
Himeno noticed the mail that Yayoi brought in. Something caught Himeno's eyes. That's it! Himeno thought as she grabbed the coupon in the stack of junk mail.
"Yayoi, I'm going to cut my hair!" Himeno exclaimed.
Yayoi's eyes widened. "But, Himeno!! Your hair is so long and pretty. You've always had it long!"
"That's why its time for a change. Plus it will always grow back!" Himeno said as she dragged Yayoi out of their dorm room with the coupon in her hand.
"Himeno, do you even know where the salon is?" Yayoi asked.
Himeno stopped and looked at Yayoi sheepishly. Yayoi rolled her eyes and took the coupon from Himeno.
"The salon is near the ice cream place we went to yesterday," Yayoi said.
When they arrived there, Himeno did not know what kind of hairstyle she wanted.
"I'm not sure what style I want, I just want to cut it short. Do whatever you want, just don't make me look like a boy," Himeno said to the hairstylist.
"Don't worry darling, I have the best idea!" the hairstylist chirped and started washing Himeno's hair.
"Himeno, I'm going to read a book at the ice cream shop. Meet me there when you're done okay?" Yayoi asked.
"Sure."
About an hour later the hairstylist was done. When Himeno opened her eyes, she was surprised.
Himeno looked at herself in the mirror. Her beautiful orange tinted pink hair was now very short. It came up to above her chin and flipped outwards. Her bangs were the only thing that did not change much. She actually looked like a fifteen-year-old girl with her new haircut. Himeno remembered how many people thought she was actually older with her long hair.
"Oh my….it looks nice," Himeno smiled at the hairstylist.
"Honey, you look hot! If I wasn't gay I'd be all over you!" the hairstylist gushed.
Himeno laughed and paid the hairstylist.
"Thank you for the haircut…um…"
"Darcy…just call me Darcy," the hairstylist replied.
"Well my name is Himeno, and thanks again Darcy!" Himeno said as she left the salon.
I wonder what Yayoi will think…Himeno wondered as she headed toward the ice cream shop.
When she entered, she saw Yayoi sitting on a couch with her back towards her. Himeno slowly crept up behind Yayoi.
"Boo!" Himeno yelled.
"AAaaaaaah!" Yayoi yelped and her book went flying in the air. Yayoi turned to face her attacker.
Himeno waited for Yayoi's reaction. Yayoi stared for a good minute before she said anything.
"Wow Himeno, it is so different from before. You look very pretty," Yayoi said with a sincere smile.
"Thanks Yayoi! I was so nervous about the haircut, but I'm glad I did it!" Himeno said.
They started heading back to the dorms, to make sure they had everything ready for the first day of school.
