Hey guys, thanks for the Reviews. I wasn't expecting anyone to comment on my story so quickly! But it's inspired me to continue writing.
Here's the next chapter, hope you like it!
Chapter 4: Sparks Were Flying
Light breathing escaped Kimiko's soft peach-coloured lips. Her dark silky hair rested peacefully on the soft pillow under her head. She was innocently dreaming as the brazilian next to her woke from her touch. She was nuzzled deeply into his chest with her slim finger tips lightly clutching his shirt.
Rai's POV:
"She must have rolled over in the night" I thought gazing at her lips. They were partly open; inviting. Her soft breaths tickled my neck, sending me chills down my spine. I traced my rough fingers against her smooth skin, from her cheek to her neck, to her shoulders. She moved a little at my touch, giving me a better view of her neck. She moaned softly. She looked so peaceful, so perfect. I could her her whispering under her breath, but couldn't make out what she was saying. I smiled and wondered...what exactly she was dreaming about.
I could've stayed next to her forever, but I knew she'd get all embarrassed and angry when she woke up, so I decided it'd be best to leave. I gently grabbed her tiny hand and rested on the bed sheets, then I slowly made my way off the bed so I wouldn't wake up the sleeping angel.
I tried to tiptoe softly back to my room, it'd be annoying to have to explain to Omi or -
"What in tarnation?"
Fuuuck. I mentally slapped myself. I casually turned around to face my big Texan friend. "What are you doing up so early Clay?" I whispered, not wanting OMI to wake up too.
"Well...I wanted to wake up and take a shower before Kimiko had a chance to hog the bathroom" He began before crossing his arms in a very father-like manner. "So...mind lettin' me know why you were in Kimiko's room?"
I slipped him a smirk. "Make-up sex."
He furrowed his brows obviously not pleased with my response. I turned back around and headed to my room. "Just pulling your leg Clay. I just wanted to apologize to Kimiko for yesterday, but she was passed out." I explained.
Kimiko's POV:
I tried to keep my eyes shut, hoping I'd fall back to sleep...but it was no use I was already awake. Why was I up so early? I stretched, spreading my arms around my pillow before nuzzling my face into it. It smelled like Rai.
….
…..
RAI! I shot up and looked around the room. "Was it a dream?" I wondered out loud. I laid my head back down on the pillow to take in his scent again. It smelled fresh and minty, with a tinge of the beach. I frowned, somewhat disappointed that his sleeping next to me was all a dream. But I couldn't help but wonder why my pillow smelled like him.
More importantly, I wondered why I was smelling his scent at all. I considered flipping the pillow...but found the scent too comforting to part with. "What's wrong with me...?" I sighed. I looked over at the plastic baby-yellow chick clock on my desk. I had a whole hour to kill before I needed to get up. I pushed my face deeper into the pillow, trying to keep my mind busy.
I planned out my outfit..2 minutes had passed. I planned out what to make for breakfast...another 2 minutes had passed. I thought about Keiko, and wondered how different she probably looked by now. 10 minutes had passed (Who knows what style she's into these days.) I thought about Omi and what his new friends were like. If they were using him I was going to crush them. I was like a mother bear. Only 15 minutes total had passed.
I groaned. Okay..what else to think about...I closed my eyes. Rai. My cheeks felt warm. "ugh...what's wrong with me?" I groaned. I rolled over and released the pillow hoping images of Rai would flutter out of my head.
….
"I wonder what his girlfriend is like..." I whispered to myself.
-at school
I wore my hair in pig-tails today, an orange and off-white stripped hoodie, blue jean shorts, white high socks and orange sneakers. I skipped down the hall greeting a few people I had met in my classes with a smile and a "good morning".
The boys followed behind me making their way to their separate rooms. "Ready for Gym class?" Rai smirked tugging on one of my pigtails. I shooed his hand away. "Yup!" I replied cheefully.
We had just set foot in the gym when a ditzy-looking girl came running up to Rai. "Hmph" I crossed my arms, remembering that he had gone on a DATE yesterday.
"Hey Rai!" The blonde flipped her hair over her shoulder then gave me a glare.
I thought I would be over this...I thought I'd forgiven him. I turned to look at her.
She already had her arms wrapped around his pushing her breasts into him!
"Well I better change! I don't want to get my clothes dirty!" I gave him a big bitter smile.
Rai's POV:
"W-wait Kimiko it's not what it-" She had already marched into the girl's room. I growled, my muscles tensed up, my hands balled up with rage. I shot Amanda a look. "When I left yesterday, it didn't mean I wasn't ready to be with you or something like that, it meant I wasn't interested." I explained with venom running through each word.
"I know you didn't mean it! You're so sweet" She replied merrily. What the hell? Was this girl really that stupid? "You didn't want to hurt your girlfriend's feelings, so you wanted to break up with her first! I understand."
"You're psychotic you know that?" I jerked away and headed to the boy's room to change. So she made up a story in her head to justify what happened yesterday, then tricked herself into believing it. Wow. Amanda was fucking psycho.
Of course, Kimiko and I finished our 5k early and sat on the bleachers. Except this time she didn't seem very happy.
Kimiko's POV:
I was still super pissed! I tried to keep my attention on passing clouds and birds...but Rai insisted on talking.
"Kimiko..." He rubbed the back of his neck.
I ignored him.
"Look.." He leaned in closer.
I let out a sigh and stared at my orange painted nails.
"God dammit Kimiko look at me!" He demanded.
"What Rai?" I snapped, crossing my arms in annoyance.
He paused to regain his cool. "Look, that girl-" He began.
"Oh you mean the ditzy blonde with the tits you took on a date yesterday?" I hissed, cutting him off.
"Let me finish!" He yelled.
I waited patiently for his colourful explination.
"It wasn't a date. She just offered to show me around to a couple of surfing spots. She got the wrong idea about me and thought I was interested in her." He finished, looking back and forth between my eyes to see if I believed him.
"Punch him Kimiko!" my inner voice screamed. But his face twisted into a sincere pleaded look. Almost as if his life depended on me believing him. I wanted to hug him...but instead a little bit of my anger came out. I was calm...but still upset.
"Why should I care who you hang out with..." I sighed turning away from him. He seemed a little hurt. "I mean...I care who you hang out with a little." I smiled to cheer him up. I hated seeing him hurt, I hated seeing him anything but...well Raimundo. "I just didn't like that you were hanging out with someone who hates me soo much."
He threw me a smirk. "Good, the last thing I want is for you to be mad at me!"
We made up and laughed about it...then he cupped my chin in his warm large hand. "I think you're angry face is really cute, but I'd much rather have you laughing and smiling at me, then trying to kill me in my sleep.
My cheeks flourished with a red hot tint. I could feel my chest pounding and my eyes widening. I froze but I felt like I was melting. "Oh Rai!" I laughed nervously slapping him away playfully. He laughed it off then turned his attention back to the field.
How did I not notice how much different he looked from when we first met? His body was sculpted, his arms were thickened with muscle, his eyes shaped handsomely with a flicker of devious youth. I turned away quickly, so he wouldn't catch me staring at him. We both leaned our backs against the seats behind us and stared up at the sky.
Rai's POV:
Whew, I was glad she wasn't mad at me anymore. To be honest, I was kinda hoping she'd be jealous. I turned my head to look at her, she had her head leaned back all the way exposing her neck to the sun. She spread her legs on the bleachers below us and propped herself with her elbows on the seats behind us.
I decided to put my arm around her...
"Hey Kimiko, what happened yesterday?" Chase inquired casting his shadow over us.
Great timing... "Oh!" She sat up and turned to face him. "I'm sorry!"
"Did you end up going home early or something?" He pushed "politely". This guy made me sick.
"Well-" She tried to explain.
"She wised up and realized she didn't want to be left alone with a creep like you." I barked not moving from my comfortable position.
He shot me a look and frowned. "I forgot Kimiko had such a protective dog."
I glared at him trough the corner of my eyes.
"I forgot! Silly me" She giggled nervously, trying to keep the peace. "I had a lot of homework from Physics and English class."
He looked her over, obviously not convinced but smiled anyway. "Oh I see, well that's a shame, maybe some other time then."
"Yeah..maybe when I'm not so busy" She insisted.
"Maybe never." I muttered, earning another glare from The long haired senior.
"I'll see you in class Kimiko" And with that Chase finally left us alone.
"He's in your math class?" I asked.
She fumbled with the ends of her ponytail, something she always did when she got really nervous...(and had her pigtails up). "Y-yeah" She admitted.
I had to get into that class...
Chase's POV:
I can't believe she stood me up...me: Chase Young. She'd be a tougher challenge than I thought...
I smirked devilishly.
Kimiko's POV:
-AP Mathematics class.
Boy things were awkward this morning when Chase showed up. I totally forgot that I'd ditched him yesterday. Chase tok his seat next to me and gave me a smile. I smiled back even though I wish we'd move seating arrangements pretty soon. Then Jack took a seat next to me.
"So Kimiko, how do you like this school so far?" Jack asked...being oddly nice.
"It's okay.." I suspiciously eyed him.
"Don't worry, I'm not about to fight you here, I don't want to ruin my permanent record" he reassured me.
Still, you have to admit, Jack Spicer evil-boy-genius being this nice was kind of weird. Before we could continue to talk, our teacher walked into the room.
"We'll be having a new student who tested into this class join us today." She beamed.
I shot up out of my chair then sat back down quickly, as to avoid a scene.
Raimundo was standing in the front of the class. First he smiled at me, then he glared at both Chase...then Jack.
"Let's see...you can sit in front of...Chase!" She pointed over at an empty seat in front of Chase. "You two will need to become acquainted."
Both boys looked at her with confusion.
"Chase I want you to catch Raimundo up with all that we're doing." She was a peppy woman, she didn't even acknowledge the boys' reactions.
Rai and Chase glared at each other for longer than a few minutes...
I swear...
Sparks were flying...
Haha boys will be boys. Wonder how these two'll get along.
I'm sure they'll be just...err...Peachy.
