ZERO'S P.O.V
I walked into math's 10 minutes late,
I had to calm down otherwise I would have been in a worse mood then this morning you see, and I couldn't get on a worse page with Abbie,
I walked in to a loud classroom, but as soon as they saw me they shushed and sat down.
I was going to sit next to Ichi, when I noticed the seat next to Abbie wasn't taken,
So I walked over and plunked myself down,
"Hey," Abbie said,
"Yo" I answered back,
"Where did you go this morning?" she asked,
"Erm well – " I was interrupted by a loud slamming noise,
Everybody looked over towards the door,
And there stood a girl,
Dressed in a purple waist coat, and baggy loose trousers,
She looked like she was out of aldin; she looked like one of the thief characters,
The whole class, including the teacher went quiet,
She looked familiar,
My eyes and mouth made an O shape as I hid my head in my arms,
How did she find me?
Please don't see me!
"Excuse me sir, Im looking for Zero," she asked,
I could feel everybody's eyes gaze over to me,
"Yes he's over there, and who are you may I ask?"
She ignored his question and made her way to mine and Abbie's table,
"Zero?" she said
I quickly got up and shoved my way past her not saying a word.
"Zero?" she said even louder this time.
"Zero?" she called, following me,
"Go away!" I yelled shoving her so hard, making her lose her balance, and falling over.
"Z-z-zero?" she mumbled,
Everybody's eyes were watching me, including Abbie's.
"Im sorry I didn't mean to shove you that hard," I said helping her up.
"Yay! You do care Zero!" she cried,
She pulled me in to a big hug,
"Excuse me miss but who are who!" cried sir.
"Me? Im Zero's finance." She said smiling.
ABBIE'S P.O.V
"Me? Im Zero's fiancé?" she said smiling.
Zero has a fiancée! You're kidding me!
"Oh my gooood!" cried the girls in my class, "wow, talk about getting tied down" the boys mumbled.
"Zero! You never told me!" yelled Ichi, "is it true Zero?" asked Forte.
"W-wait a minute! This is something our parents decided so I-" Zero explained panicking.
"Still a promise is a promise! I'm scrupulous about keeping it! So I decided to become a examinee to find you in the human world" his fiancé cried putting her foot down, "Now resign yourself to the magic world and marry me!"
"Give me a break! Why do I have to marry you!" yelled Zero before running out the class,
"You can't get away Zero!" cried his fiancé, following him.
"Whoa." Muttered Ichi,
A rush of girls clustered round me, asking questions.
"Abbie! You're in trouble!"
"You've got a love rival!"
"What are you going to do?"
"Is this a love triangle?"
The girls all cried,
"No, you misunderstood! There's nothing going on between Zero and me! I'm not involved!" I yelled making them back away,
Huffing and puffing, I sat back down.
I don't care that zero has a fiancée! Why should I! I barely know the boy! He only follows me round because of the stupid pearl I stupidly swallowed! And he not the only who follows me as well!
But still.
Me, Ichi, Forte, Yakumo, Go, Zero and his fiancée were all sitting on the field, it was lunchtime and it was a very sunny day.
"Zero, you're missing a button! Let me sow it back on" she smiled taking his shirt off.
It doesn't bother me.
"Zero, I packed you a special lunch! Open wide!" she cried shoving food in his mouth,
It doesn't bother me.
"Zero, you look tired, why don't you lay your head on my lap!" she cried.
It. Doesn't. Bother. ME!
I shoved on my gym clothes; Rokka and Sun stared at me,
"They must really bother her," whispered Rokka,
"Yeah, I certainly wouldn't be able to stand it" Sun whispered back.
Why am I so irritated!?
Its just Zero! He's just a stupid boy for god's sake!
Argh!
Drrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
It was fifth lesson,
One more lesson and then home time, only one more lesson!
On my way to last lesson, I brought a packet of Oreos.
"Why do I have to get so riled up about him?! It's so stupid! I'll have some Oreos to forget about this!" I cried,
I was walking to my lesson when I heard some voices coming from a classroom, being the nosey person I am, I had to listen in,
"This shirts too big!" said a voice
"Just put it on!" yelled a desperate voice,
It's Zero and his stupid fiancée!
i opened the door to tell them to get to lesson when I saw them.
There she was with Zero, but she wasn't in her thief aldin costume, she was wearing bright neon pink lacy lingerie! And Zero was shirtless!
"Abbie?" Zero gasped going red.
"What are you both doing?! Looking like that!" I cried,
"It's not what-" Zero began,
"You're sick!" I yelled throwing some Oreos at him; they hit him right on his face.
"What was that for?!" Zero cried rubbing Oreo crumbs off face,
"You looked happy! I don't believe you!" I cried,
"You pervert!" I yelled dropping my Oreos and running away.
"Wait Abbie!" I heard Zero call.
"Zero! Don't go!" I heard his fiancée call.
Zero is such an idiot! Why should I care?! My heart is aching.. I wonder why?
"Abbie," a voice whispered,
I turned round to see Zero standing by the doorway of the classroom I ran into.
"I thought you were crying." He gasped,
I felt my face heat up,
I threw a board rubber at his face,
"Idiot!" I yelled,
"Why do you keep hitting me!" Zero cried,
"I wasn't crying! Spare me your ego!"
"What?"
"I've had it! I hate you!" I yelled,
Zeros face dropped.
Oh no..
I shouldn't have said that.
"I don't hate you," mumbled Zero.
Silence, we were both in awkward silence.
"Um I-" I began,
"Zero! Where are you?!" called a voice,
"Oh no! We better run!" Zero panicked
"What?" I cried as Zero grabbed my hand and started running toward the lockers at the end of the classroom.
"are you here Zero?" called a voice as she entered the class room.
Zero and me were both in a locker together; he had pushed me into one with him to hide from his fiancée.
"That's strange.." the girl muttered,
Me and Zero, locked in a locker.. We so close, Im smushed up against him.
I could feel Zero's chest against mine, I just remembered, Zero's shirtless.
"H-hey Zero," I whispered,
"Shhh," Zero whispered, "stay quiet for a bit" he whispered into my ear.
O-oh my god! My heart is about to explode!
"Did he go this way?" we heard her say leaving the classroom,
"Is she gone?" I asked, "Good, lets get out." He answered.
"Whoa!" Zero and me yelled, as we both fell out the locker.
His fiancée hadn't left the classroom as we had thought.
Her face crumbled up as she was about to cry, but then she got angry.
"WHAT'S WITH THIS GIRL!" she screamed, "YOU WERE CHEATING ON ME WITH HER! WERENT YOU!!"
I do admit it did look a bit like we were,
I was sitting on top of Zero, who was shirtless.
We both jumped off each other when we saw how we had landed after falling out the locker.
"YOU'LL NEVER BE FORGIVEN! I'LL CAST A SPELL ON HER!!!!" she screamed again,
"TAROT SPELL!" she cried casting a spell with her hands.
There was a bright white flash.
My eyes blinked at how bright it was, and as the light faded away, I noticed some thing Zero had dog's ears and a fluffy tail.
"Zero your ears!" I pointed out,
"Abbie your ears!" he pointed out as well.
Zero wasn't the only one with animal ears and a tail.
I had big black cat ears and a long black tail.
"Oh, Zero's under the spell too" she gasped, "well that works out perfectly!" she grinned.
"What the hell is this!?" I yelled pulling on my cat ears.
"That curse turns you into an animal, it's partial now but you'll keep evolving," she winked, "ultimately you'll transform completely and stay like this for ten years!" she laughed,
Zero yelled "but!"
"Don't worry Zero, relax if you become a dog, I'll marry you and give you a real training!" she smiled at him,
"Well enjoy what's left of your human life! See ya!" she cried before vanishing into thin air.
Are you serious!
"Shit!" Zero cried,
"Zero, how many steps are there until we completely transform in to a dog and cat!"
"Three" he whispered.
"Oh no! Zero I don't want to become a real cat!" I screamed.
"Neither do i! we must find a way to transform back!" he cried, "we must find Ichi!"
We ran down the corridor, it was lucky it was lesson time because no one could see the animal ears Zero and me had magically grown.
"Abbie! Somebody's coming!" Zero panicked,
"We can't let them see us!" I said,
"Quick lets hide in here!" he pulled me in to the nearest room which was the Infirmary, we heard the voices past and we relaxed.
"We can't do anything until Ichi is out of lesson," signed Zero,
"No one seems to be around so lets hide in here" I said.
We were sitting on the bed,
"We will be fine if we close the curtains," he said getting up to close the curtains around the bed, and then sitting back down, I nodded in agreement.
This is so embarrassing!
"Oh! Is someone here?" asked a voice,
Zero looked at me and mouthed, "What should we do!"
I mouthed back "I don't know!"
And before I knew it, Zero had pulled me under the bed covers and laid on top of me with the duvet over him, hiding his ears.
"What's wrong? Do you have a cold?" the nurse asked.
"I've got a head ache, can I stay in bed for a while?" Zero lamely said,
"Alright, get some rest." She said "but will you be okay by yourself?"
"Yeah! I will be!" Zero quickly said.
Just leave already!
The door slammed and she was gone.
We both relaxed, breathing deeply.
"Whoa!" Zero's hand had slipped and he fell on top of me, our faces breathing against each other's, we were both blushing.
"Sorry!" Zero cried jumping off me like he just burnt himself, "That's okay!" I cried sitting up.
"Zero, how are we going to undo the spell?" I asked,
"Erm, Im not sure" he looked around the room as if the answer was going to jump out on him.
If only! If only I didn't swallow that stupid pearl! Then this all wouldn't of happened!
I would have never met Zero then..
"Oh! I do remember something out of I read out of a book!"
"Tell me then!"
"Well, I remember it saying something like, getting close, hugging or a kiss can cure the spell!" he smiled at me
Getting close! Hugging! A KISS!!!!
Me kissing/hugging/ or even getting close with ZERO?!
It makes me so happy to think of it but also really…
I cringed,
"But we don't have to I guess.." Zero mumbled, I guess he saw my reaction.
"No, if it's too get the spell undone, then of course" I smiled weakly.
Zero nodded, he started to slowly pull me towards him, I wrapped my arms around him, my heart was pounding, I couldn't breath, I wanted this moment to go on forever.
Zero!
Zero!
Zero!
We held each other for a while before pulling away,
"It didn't work," I said still blushing,
"That means we will have to.. Kiss" he whispered,
"We can't possibly do that, right?" he laughed uncontrollably,
"Yeah" I laughed too.
Then Zero stopped false laughing and so did i.
There was that silence again..
"But if it's our only option, should we… Give it… A try?" he asked not looking at me.
"The kiss" my voice barely a whisper,
"Whaaaaat!" I suddenly called out, "But we don't know if it will work!"
"I was just kidding stupid. Don't take it seriously!" Zero voice suddenly turned spiteful,
Oh, it was a joke.
I could feel my face fall, and so did Zero's too.
"Im sorry, Im sorry for making you feel uneasy." He looked at me, looking shameful.
Zero, no that's not what I mea!, I wasn't reluctant about it….
"O-okay!" I shouted
"Huh?" Zero jumped slightly at my outburst.
"You can………………………………… kiss me" I cringed.
"B-b-but you-" Zero asked,
"I said it's okay, it might work! Hurry up!" I stuttered,
"It's not that.. That didn't want to do it." I blushed.
Zero blushed then nodded and said "Lets do it then!"
"Y-yes please!" I nodded agreeing,
We moved our head together,
"Abbie, C-can you.. Close your eyes?" Zero whispered closing his own eyes first,
"O-o-o-o-okay" I stuttered,
He really is going to kiss me!
Zero's breathing slowed as he hesitated, I could feel his beautiful blue eyes sweep across my face.
Zero tilted my head upward; I could feel his hot breath on my face
I closed my eyes, and simultaneously, our lips touched.
Softly at first, only for a second, but it felt like someone had lit fireworks in my stomach.
Pulling me closer to him, I could taste the sweetness of chocolate, and the fruitiness of strawberries.
The kiss became faster and faster, our lips moving together, his hands moving from my back to up into my hair, he was gently playing with my hair, I started to giggle as he tickled my back with his fingers, my hands playful moving up his chest and into his hair then back down to his chest, I couldn't stop my-
"NOT EVEN A CURSE COULD STOP YOU TWO!!!" screamed a voice,
We broke away, to see Zero's fiancée standing there watching us, her face full of anger and her eyes full of hate,
She glared at me,
"ZERO! HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU WANT TO BREAK MY HEART!?" she cried tears welling up in her eyes, "YOU DON'T SEEM TO HAVE ANY REGRET ABOUT IT DO YOU!"
Zero's eyes looked down to the floor,
"YOU PROMISED! YOU PROMISED TO ME! YOUR EXTACT WORDS WERE, I LOVE YOU AND ONLY YOU!"
"it was different, I was nine."
"IT STILL MEANT SOME THING TO ME!"
"I think it's best if you change back me and Abbie, and then just leave."
"WHY SHOULD I!"
Tears running down her face,
"You have to release us!"
"I'LL RELEASE YOU BUT NOT ABBIE!"
"What!"
"Im not releasing Abbie!"
"Leaving her out is ridiculous! You have to release her!"
"Urgh! Abbie this, Abbie that! Is she that important to you! But I, I love you too!"
Zero's face fell,
"I wasn't marrying you out of obligation. I love you, only you! And I thought you loved me as well like you said! I've been wanting to see you for a long time!" she sobbed.
"Why don't you understand how I feel?" she whispered, "if I c-cant have you. I'LL CAST A SPELL ON EVERYONE IN THIS SCHOOL AND TURN THEM INTO ANIMALS!!"
"WHAT!" Zero and me shouted,
"Tarot spell! Animal change!" she shouted,
There was a flash.
"Rokka, what's up with those ears?" asked Sun,
"More like what's up with that tail Sun?" asked Rokka,
Screaming filled the halls,
"I have bunny ears!"
"I have bear ears!"
"I have wings!!"
"Zero! Abbie!" yelled Ichi as he rushed into the infirmary,
"Your in animal form, what's going on! The whole is in panic!" he cried,
"If Zero don't love me then I don't care! Everyone should turn into animals!" cried his fiancée,
"Kuku!" yelled a voice, a boy stood at the doorway of the infirmary, his fiancée looked up.
"Kuku! Stop! Stop it now!" the boy yelled, "This isn't going to get you any where!"
"Shut up! Shut up! Shut up! You don't understand how I feel!" Kuku screamed,
"KUKU!" the boy raised his hand as if to hit Kuku,
"No!" Kuku cried turning her face away,
The boy lowered his hand away, Kuku looked up.
"I've been around you since childhood, and I've always looked after you, I know you have always loved Zero, and how you feel now," the boy said with caring eyes,
"Toto," Kuku said,
"I know your true feelings, and I will always understand them." He smiled wiping her tears away.
"Rokka what are we still doing here?" asked Sun,
"Sun, I have no idea. Lets go home!" Rokka cried running out the door,
"Its nearly nightfall what happened!"
"I don't know, I can't remember"
"Im so sorry!" smiled Kuku,
"For all the trouble" Toto smiled weakly,
"It's okay," smiled Ichi,
"Im so sorry Abbie" smiled Kuku,
"its alright," I didn't really know what to say, Im mean me and Zero have gotten closer then we have ever been! So I just smiled and nodded my head.
She leaned to whisper in my ear,
"You and Zero make a brilliant couple! Just make sure you invite to your wedding!" she winked before joining Toto on the magic flying carpet and vanishing into thin air.
"What did she say to you Abbie?" Zero asked on the way home,
"Nothing doesn't worry about it," I giggled blushing.
"Well kouhai, it seems humans are more fun then we thought,"
"Yes senpai, and just think we are missing out on it all!"
"not for long kouhai, not for long"
