Zakuro Vs My fiance
Chapter 3: Confrontation coming up!!
A/n: Yeah, I'm… back!! Na, sighs FYI, all of my stories will be beta-ed by SaoirseWaveglow, or PhantomInvader. Geez.
Thanks for Tokyo's city direction!! is looking at the map and I have the tourism map of Tokyo, Odaiba, etc. Yay! It's good for information especially this chapter!!
Anyways… I feel like a bit out… I think nobody likes ZakuroXMinto… If that's right… I'm quit as writer… ah, uh. Its ShizNat time!!
Shizuru: nods Hai. Ikumi Mia-han to Yoshida Reiko-han own Tokyo Mew Mew. looks at Granite Granite-han, na? Buy me green tea, na? summons Naginata
Granite: hides behind Urooj Hai, hai. Shizuru!!!
Minto quickly hooked her up by the armpits, standing on the tiptoe, listening to her gasp, but quickly softened her up by pressing her lips against hers.
Minto blinked as she felt Zakuro's soft lips against hers. Her lips were amazingly soft. How could someone who looked so hard be so soft? You have no idea.
Zakuro gasped in shock but then she closed her eyes for a while, enjoying the kiss. But, Zakuro felt uncomfortable when she felt that anyone (including Ichigo, Retasu, and Purin) were staring. So she quickly pushed her away, taking a full five seconds thought to pull herself together, lick her dry lips, and turn her shocked (eh?) expression into a glare.
"What the HELLare you doing, Minto?" she growled.
"Ah… Umm"
Minto backed away nervously, trying to communicate to her using sign language that she would explain to her some time later, when she noticed Ichigo, Purin and even Retasu grinning like they were just ends up seeing an idiotic girl.
Zakuro almost slapped herself.
'It was all because of that stupid Minto' she thought furiously. Why the HELL did she has to kiss her in front of all of them for? She looked at Minto, desperately thinking an excuse for it, when she just noticed how bad the situation was. Zakuro sighed and crossed her arms.
Minto rolled her eyes and turned around to glance at Seiji, as if to see what sort of expression he had on his face, when he noticed Seiji's eyebrows raised above his fringe, making him seem… well, just plain weird.
'Mwahahaha… That's funny' thought Seiji, still smiled victoriously, looking at a blushing red Minto.
'I should do that again much, but…' Seiji now deciding to walk to her younger sister, who seemed confused about telling her friends what and why she's doing.
'No mind being evil next day' Thought Seiji, grinning evilly. 'I wonder how Fujiwara-san eh, I mean… Zakuro-san will react… It's quite funny wondering how her expression will be…'
"What are you doing to her, Minto-san?" Asked Kanna Saionji, who suddenly popped out behind her.
"Heh??" was the reply from Minto.
Zakuro almost slapped herself.
"Alright, here's the deal." Minto said. "Me and Oneesama are actually… Umm… playing games…" Minto answered. "...- Umm… err…"
Minto bit her lips. 'Damn! I'm no good at making excuses!!'
Silence.
Zakuro sighed. "What Minto tried to say is… well, we… umm… Need not to know" Zakuro gave everyone cold glance, hoping they would forget it all.
The temperature suddenly dropped into -5 degrees Celsius.
"Okay, ask a stupid question…" Seiji said, innocently shrugging.
'Ehm. Here we go' thought Seiji. 'No, I'm not going to participate on this… I'd better leave' Seiji thought.
"That was TOO far-fetched, Zakuro-Oneechan, na no da!!" Purin said, entuistically.
"Nicely said." Ichigo said, winking.
Zakuro blinked.
That was close.
Minto caught a glimpse of her, and she looked back.
Minto winked.
Zakuro looked surprised.
Then Zakuro smiled back.
"Goodbye, come again some day." Minto said without her usual sarcastic voice. Her voice now heard so… Kind. Ichigo raised an eyebrow on this.
Zakuro just gave them a no emotion glare.
"We will do, Minto-chan" said Ichigo. Then, she looked at Zakuro, winking. "Good luck, Zakuro-san!" teased her. Zakuro gave her fiercer glare.
"Of course, Minto-san" said Retasu, smiling.
"See you, na no da!!" said Purin, enthusiastically.
"Bye, Minto-chan" said Kanna Saionji, with a blush on her face. She then waving her right hand.
Seiji, with the newest fashion magazine in his hands, then handed it to Minto. "Enjoy it, you Fashionista." he said, grinning.
Minto smirked. "Thanks." she replied, now opening the magazine.
Seiji paused for a moment, his eyes crossing with Zakuro for a moment.
Time stopped.
Just for a minute.
'I don't know how you will react about this, Zakuro-san. Gomen (1) if Boku (2) make watashi no Imouto (3) kissed you in front of your friends, but I can't help… to see both of you kissing… Maybe someday I'll see that again' Thought Seiji.
"Alright then. Goodbye. Have a nice day" he said, before walking off.
This made Zakuro raised her eyebrow.
'What the… What the hell that's mean???
Somewhere in Tokyo…
"So it's been decided." a male voice said.
The brown haired man looked down from Tokyo Tower.
'Tokyo Tower…'He thought.
'The location is quite strategic, near the Zoujonji temple, And Akebashi Station, and has easy line.' Thought him. Schneider always wants to go there. Not like he hasn't been there before, the place that held so many memories for him.
"Scanwright-san" He called, in Japanese. Schneider looked at his business client coldly. It's his famous glare. The person he called, Abi Scanwright, just smiled, and realized that his attitude may be because he's just too tired, since he arrive at Narita airport this morning. And it's just 2 pm now.
"Meister Schneider" Abi replied politely, in a perfect German. Abi Scanwright is Schneider's best friend, but he ALWAYS uses formal language. It bored him.
"Since we're at Japan, why don't we use Japanese, Abi-san? And don't be too formal. I'm getting sick." Schneider replied, in amused tune. He's too busy observing Tokyo from Special observatory.
"Hai. Anyways, Ralph-san. So this is your favorite spot, ne?" Abi said, looked out. It's wonderful.
"It's my favorite spot… 250 meters from the land, and here, we could see as far as Fujiyama and Tsukubayama at noon, and at night we could enjoy a breath-taking view created by brilliant neon flights." He explained, without turned her head from the scenery.
"The ticket price is only Ұ 1720 for Children (junior high school students and primary school pupils) and, if we're hungry, we could go down to the 2nd floor, and go to the food court, enjoying Japanese, Western, and Chinese cuisine, and also enjoying being a gourmet by choosing all I like from the menus." He explained cheerily. Not that Abi ever heard his cheer tone, but this Schneider almost never frowns when he arrived. It started to freak him out, but now he's getting used with it.
"I'm hungry." Abi stated, as he looked at his stomach. He hasn't eaten anything since breakfast. Now its lunch time.
"Let's get down," Ralph commanded. "I know a very good Japanese restaurant here. Ninja style." He said, with a smirk. The 'ninja style' things amused Abi so much. He always wanted to see ninjas. He's half (?) Otaku, collected Naruto, Flame of Recca, Kekkaishi mangas and DVDs, not to mention buying the action figures.
Schneider smirk only grew wider. "For dinner. Not now. I want to eat in a quite cozy restaurant, but normal style." This made Abi looked sad for a minute, but then whatever that restaurant is this has to be good. Schneider always had great taste at food.
At Aizawa's mansion…
Minto and Zakuro were busy eating Sushi set with a comforting silence between them. Its comforting to Zakuro, but not for Minto. She thought for an upcoming topic, but because she has nothing in her head, so what she could do is eating in a silence, not going to bother Zakuro's ladylike eating style.
Zakuro wanted to talk to her as well, but, because of the table-manner, it's not allowed to speak while you're eating, so she said nothing.
"I like the de'kor" commented Abi, as he walked in.
Ralph smiled a little. "Yeah. I like the decoration, too. But the food here's so great. You'd better be prepared. Can you use chopsticks?" Schneider said, as he walked to the seat number 17.
Abi was almost tripped, so he warned him in German.
"'Schludering. Don't be so excited, you almost tripped at your own feet." Warned him straightly.
"Baka! Ich- nothing." He replied, considering it's unwise to start a mouth war with him. He will win at any cost.
At living room…
Zakuro and Minto did nothing. Well, not really nothing anyways, Minto was busy preparing herself, make sure she'll enjoy reading the magazine…
Back with Schneider…
Schneider scowled. He looked at his chopsticks, while remembered about something…
Flashback.
'Are you hungry? You could eat mine if you wish…'
Little Schneider nodded. He really hungry from playing football. He sat at a bench.
"Here." The little girl gave him a lunch box.
"I don't have fork, so are chopsticks okay?" She asked, looking at a drooling Schneider.
"Dankeeee fuuuuuuuurrrr!!! It's fine, I love chopsticks!!" He replied happily, as he took the lunch box from her.
She chuckled simply. Schneider busy eating, but stopped while his friend asked him.
"Will you miss me?" she asked simply, looked down at the grass.
"Was beczweckst du mit dieser Frage?? (what do you mean with that question??) " he replied, in confused tune.
"I'll go back to Japan," Schneider choked at her words.
"So soon??" he asked. She nodded. "So soon"
End of flashback.
"Oui, Schneider!!" Abi waved his hand in front of his friend who seemed lost in his own deep thoughts.
Schneider quickly snapped out her thoughts.
"Meh what's wrong?" he asked, with a bored tune.
Schneider smiled a little. "Chopsticks… remind me of someone." Replied him sheepishly.
They then continued their lunch in silence.
"So THAT's why you kissed me." Zakuro said, after let out a small sigh.
Minto blushed and nodded furiously.
There was a small shred of disappointment inside Zakuro's heart at the sound of that, for a reason beyond recognition. She shook herself, and managed to force a smile.
"You stupid idiot" she muttered, and got up from the seat she was in.
"You don't have to do that." Added her, looked at Minto. Minto just grinned sheepishly, and hugged the fashion magazine in her hands.
Zakuro noticed this.
'That fashion magazine…'
Zakuro keeping looking at the magazine Seiji used to bribe Minto to kiss her…
'That fashion magazine… What if…'
"Minto" Zakuro said slowly and quietly.
"Hmm?" Minto muttered, flipping the pages of her magazine.
"If…" she whispered. "If it wasn't because of the magazine…" Zakuro swallowed hard. Tried to find the next words she would like to say. "Would you have still done it?"
It was barely audible.
Almost, that is.
Zakuro bit her lips, frustrated by this.
"What?" Minto asked, still looking at the magazine. She was too busy too care.
"Eh, anyways Oneesama, do you know that Milan Fashion Week'll be postponed?" asked Minto, reading the article.
Zakuro frowned. "Really? Glad to hear that, then" replied Zakuro, looking elsewhere but Minto.
"Why?" asked Minto, looked up. She knew Zakuro was a bit comfortable with something, but she chose to ignore it.
'Great. Now Oneesama is angry with me. Is it something I said before? Or… is it something she said before? Umm… well, that's right-!! Ah… Baka!! Oneesama was supposed to ask me something! But…'
"…Paris Fashion week" Zakuro answered Minto's question, but Minto didn't get it.
"Eh? What?" Asked Minto. 'bad things, Minto, you didn't notice her. Baka. How you could be so clueless, Zakuro had answered your question, you know!!'
"Umm… Minto," Zakuro started, looked at the carpet.
Minto, turned on her affectionate side, and looked up. "Nani?"
With Schneider… (Geez)
Ralph Schneider, for the second time, glaring his friend for being so slow. No doubt that it's intoxicating. Of course it is. It IS TOKYO, not another place. 'Geez, I shouldn't bring him!' thought Schneider.
He sat at his comfort leather driver seat, ready to drive his New Metallic Blue Fisker Karma, his new car from Fisker corp.
"Mou, Ab! You turned into a child!" He said, with a smirk.
Abi, flushed at his friend's comment. "H-How do you say that!! Good Lord, Ralph!! IT IS TOKYO, not like another place!!" Schneider gave him an amused looks, but then it quickly faded away. "Just in. I can't wait to see Aizawa-san." He mused. "Wonder how she looks now? I have lost contact for god-knows-how-long," he said. "I'll just drop you at the hotel, while I go to her… Mansion, I suppose?"
With this Ralph Schneider drove her Fisker Karma (A/N: It's mine!! I want it!! XDDD).
"Nothing." Zakuro muttered, blushing furiously. Zakuro turned her head away, hiding her blushing red face. "Forget what I said." Now Minto really turned her head to meet Zakuro, in confusion.
"But… Onee-sama, anata wa (4) …" Zakuro then cut her sentence.
"FORGET IT." Zakuro replied, with an unusual high-pitched voice, but Minto didn't notice that.
Zakuro then walked outside, ignoring the older dark blue-haired boy, Seiji, who was popping out of his bedroom and shut the door behind him. Seiji muttered a "Hey!" But Zakuro decided to ignore him, and just walked away.
"Oh my… Kami-sama (5)." she muttered, shutting her eyes and pressing her palm against her forehead. There was a burning feeling in her heart, her heart hammering against her chest.
'Do I love her?'
"No." she said to herself firmly.
But she had kissed her not too long before, and that was not in front of Ichigo and the others. It was when Minto was sleeping, when she was not aware… That familiar blush was appearing on her cheeks once more before she knew it, and she shook herself again. This was not the normal her. What was up with her the past few days? She had been acting almost totally not like herself, it seemed that she was…
Her fingers stopped against the door handle.
She was in love with her.
She bit her lip.
There it was.
Anger?
Disappointment?
Frustration?
Sadness?
Happiness?
Confusion?
She looked up, desperate to keep a straight face.
She took in a deep breath, and breathed out.
Relax.
Zakuro, relax.
Everything was all right.
Everything was going to be… alright…
Yes, for sure…
"Zakuro"
Zakuro turned around, her eyes stinging in the rain which she never knew was there.
There he was, in the rain, his expressions more dead than ever.
Schneider…
Schneider…
Well, everything will be alright if he is not here…
"Hello, Zakuro." Schneider said solemnly, with an evil smirk.
