"Hey Laila, what happened to your arm?" Yusuke asked the next day at school. Laila's eyes quickly darted to her arm and found her bruise was showing.

"Nothing," she said quickly as she pulled down her sleeve. Yusuke raised an eyebrow, but didn't push it further. He turned back to his sandwich and the two of them ate quietly until Kuwabara came up.

"Hey guys!" he yelled, and Laila felt her body twinge.

"Kuwabara, is there really a reason why you talk so damn loud?" She asked quietly yet dangerously. Kuwabara took one look at Laila and his smile immediately disappeared. Laila was giving one of the most evilest glares from the corner of her eye. Kuwabara gulped and slowly sat down next to Yusuke. Laila eyed him as he did so and then turned back to her lunch.

After a few minutes of silence, Yusuke finally broke the silence.

"So, Laila, what are you doing this afternoon?" he asked. Laila shrugged as she chewed but stopped. She quickly turned her face to face Yusuke as she gulped down her food.

"That reminds me, do you have Shuiichi's number?" Yusuke and Kuwabara raised their eyebrows and looked at each other with a glint in their eyes. They turned back to face Laila and smirked.

"Why, got a hot date with him?" Yusuke asked, his smirk widening. Laila mentally slapped herself. Now she was going to be teased.

"Or do you just got the hotts for him?" Kuwabara sang. Laila gave them both the deadliest glare, but that only made their smirks bigger.

"Urgh, never mind then, pretend I never asked," Laila moaned as she started to throw her trash into her brown bag, but Yusuke and Kuwabara were too much in their own little world for them to hear Laila. Laila rolled her eyes and stood up, walking to the trash can and dropped her trash inside. She started walking towards her class when she came across the tennis courts. She glanced at them for only a moment until she noticed Kiona was there. She looked like she was playing, but now she looked like she was barking orders at the referee, because she was yelling something at him from the sidelines and the ref was rubbing his temples with his forefingers. Laila walked over to Kiona and soon realized what she was yelling at him about.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN, TOMATOES ARE VEGETABLES! THEY ARE FRUITS! FRUITS, I SAY!" Kiona yelled as she raised her baseball bat. The ref turned around to face them, and by the look of his face, he seemed like he had enough.

"Um, Kiona, why don't we go take a walk?" Laila managed to say as she grabbed her friends' arm and dragged her off the courts.

"Can you believe that? He thinks tomatoes are vegetables, but they're really fruit. Right?" Kiona asked.

Laila nodded while smiling. "Duh! Of course they're fruits, but I have a question. Why do you have a baseball bat on a tennis court?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After school had ended, Laila and Kiona decided to go to their favorite ramen shop. They waved goodbye to Yusuke and Kuwabara, and then started walking. They sparked up a conversation that they were so caught into that they walked passed it. Laughing at themselves, they turned around and walked back. Once they opened the door, they were greeted by the aromas of different flavored ramens.

"Oh! I'm getting oriental flavor today!" Kiona squealed with delight as she practically ran up to the glass and watched as they cooked the ramen noodles. She watched with amazement as they added their secret sauce and other ingredients into the ramen.

"I thought your favorite ramen flavor was chicken?" Laila asked as she walked up beside Kiona and watched the workers.

"Yeah, but chicken is so overrated now. Oriental is the shit!" Kiona said happily as she continued to be amazed by the ramen being cooked.

Laila shook her head as she smiled before she went up to the cashier and ordered and paid for their ramen.

After collecting their bowls of ramen, they walked casually to their regular seat. Where they sat was at the very corner of the store with a large bay window looking out towards the beach. (A/N: In this story, they're by the beach.) They sat down and quickly ate their ramen. It's not like they had anywhere to go, it's just that they loved their ramen! They soon started talking about school until Kiona's expression on her face suddenly became serious.

"Did she do it again?" She asked as she placed her empty bowl and her chopsticks down. Laila looked down at her ramen and picked at her food, now not finding herself not hungry. Kiona kept the same expression on her face as she stared at her. But Laila didn't look up. "Laila…"

"Did you hear that Shuiichi asked me out on a date?" Laila interrupted as she looked up at Kiona with a fake smile plastered to her face that screamed "Please-change-the-subject". Kiona took the hint and softened before becoming all excited.

"No way! What, when, where, why?" Kiona asked quickly as she took Laila's ramen bowl and began to eat the leftover noodles. Laila laughed.

"Seriously, he asked me yesterday when I was leaving, at his house and I don't know why," Laila explained.

"Ooh…he thinks you're sexy…" Kiona sang as she waved her chopsticks in front of Laila's face. Laila blushed a bit and pushed the chopsticks away. "Kiona, stop-"

"He wants to hug you, he wants to kiss you, he wants to make-" Kiona sang before Laila suddenly slapped her hand over Kiona's mouth. Laila blush became redder.

"Look, I don't think he wants to date me for that." Laila pulled her hand away from Kiona's mouth when she was sure no more singing would go on. She leaned against her chair and sighed. "He was probably just pulling my leg anyways. He didn't even give me his number or anything, so…" Laila sighed again and looked out to the ocean, her head resting on her hand.

"Well, if you had a chance to ask him for it, would you?" Kiona asked as she looked the opposite way.

"I don't know, probably. I guess I would."

Kiona smiled and placed her chopsticks down. "Well that's good, because here's your chance. He's coming this way."

Laila quickly looked at Kiona and saw her pointing behind her. Laila turned her head to look out the window behind her and sure enough, there was Shuiichi. Laila smiled wide, turned to Kiona with her eyes sparkling with delight, and then jumped up and ran to the door. She pulled it open roughly (almost breaking the poor door), and calmly yet quickly walked towards Shuiichi, telling herself to calm down. Shuiichi was surrounded by a group of ladies that seemed to be flirting. That was the case as Laila came closer.

"Oh, Shuiichi!"

"Oh Shuiichi, you're the best!"

"I love you Shuiichi!"

Laila raised her eyebrow as she stared at the group of girls. 'What the hell is this, a group orgasm? Geez…' Laila thought to herself as she stuck her tongue out in disgust. She watched as Shuiichi seemed to be suffocated by the mob of horny girls.

"MAKE ROOM! LAILA COMING THROUGH! Hey, watch where your hand is, pervert!" Laila yelled to everyone as she made her way though the raging group. Shuiichi spotted her and his eyes lit up instantly.

"Why, hello Laila. I was just thinking about you," Shuiichi greeted as he took her hand and pulled through the screaming, rabid girls. Girls gave her hateful glares as others seemed to be crying.

"Shuiichi, how could you?"

"Shuiichi, who is this?"

"Is she your sister? Tell me she's your sister!"

"He doesn't have a sister, dumb ass! I'd know if he did. I know everything about him."

"Stalker!"

Laila rolled her eyes at the group before she turned to face Shuiichi. Shuiichi squeezed her hand and bent down to whisper, "How about we put on a little show?"

Laila blushed madly as he pulled back and winked. Laila wasn't sure, but she could've sworn his eyes flickered with gold. Laila smirked before nodding. Shuiichi slid his arms around Laila's waist and hugged her close. Gasps were heard throughout the group, and more questions were asked.

"Shuiichi, are you dating?"

"Shuiichi, I thought you were with me!"

Laila rolled her eyes again and smirked at the hateful teenage girls as she and Shuiichi made their way out from the group. Laila thought they would follow with their stupid questions, but to her surprise, they stayed where they were.

'Probably to shocked to say anything. Good riddance.'

Kiona stood by the ramen shop with a large smirk on her face as Laila and Shuiichi came closer.

"What?" Laila asked. Kiona kept her smirk on her face as her eyes traced Shuiichi's arms around Laila's waist. Laila rolled her eyes, but she couldn't help but blush slightly.

"Shut up," Laila said as she punched her shoulder playfully.
