I'M SO SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE! DX
Thank you to BET1998, vkfreako, Code Blue, red-devil-rose2094, and Vamp.98 for reviewing! I love and enjoyed everyone of your reviews! Thanks so much! MWAH! *happy face*
I walked out of forever 21 and was holding a bag of clothes I just bought. I had about ten dollars left. I decided to go and find my mom for more money. I needed some more when I go to Bath and Body Works.
I walked past Sears, GAP, American Eagle, Starbucks, and Barnes and Nobles to get to the spa place. I found my mom in one of the empty rooms. I am allowed to roam the place because my cousin owns this place. I greeted the ladies there.
"Mom, can I get some more money?" I asked.
Hopefully she doesn't bicker at me for spending almost the whole hundred which happens quite often.
"Uhh…" She said while cucumbers were over her eyes. "Sure honey. The money is in my purse."
She sounded pretty relaxed. I got a hundred dollars out of her wallet. Yay more shopping!
"Thanks mom!" I walked out of the spa.
As I walked out of the spa, there I saw Shiki walk out of Barnes and Nobles. Why do I keep bumping into this guy?
Shiki POV
I have to ask out Rima. Then I can dump her after a week. That is what Leo said. It seemed harsh. Rima is too sweet and I don't want to hurt her feelings, but I am doing it for pocky. At the end of the week I will just act really dumb or spoiled and she'll just have to dump me. I like the plan.
Adam said if she rejects me then I will have to do whatever until she says yes. I don't this she will say no though… I really want to win this bet because the pocky will be all mine.
I walked out of Barnes and Nobles. Now all I have to do is find Rima and ask her if she's hungry so I'll buy her lunch. Later I'll attack her with my charms and that is when I'll make my move sounds easy enough.
After the quick planning I looked both ways. Hmmm where should I start first? Maybe she is in forever21. I should go check there first. Then something caught my eye. I turned to my right to find Rima walking out of the spa place. Wow that was easy. It took her a while to notice me. When she did I waved.
She smiled and walked up to me. "Hey Shiki. Are you like stalking me or something?"
I snickered. Yeah right. "Anyways, where are you headed next?" Hopefully she says nowhere because I want to buy her lunch. This was part of the plan into getting her.
"Bath and Body Works…why?"
Dang it…that was when I was stuck, Should I just say never mind and walk away? Then maybe ask if I could tag along. Gosh, this plan is slowly crumbling because of my failure of communicating at the right times. I exhaled. You know what…I am just going to say it.
"I just wanted to ask you if you wanted to come eat with me." Oh my gosh…please say yes…please say yes!
She tilted her head.
"It's okay you don't have to. I mean you seem busy." I turned and started to walk away.
Arg! I am so stupid! I should have just said never mind. I bet Rima already ate or something. Geez nice going moron…
"Uh Shiki…" Rima's soft voice caught my attention. I turned around and she walked up to me. "I'll go with you. I'll go to B&BW (from now on the abbreviation for Bath and Body Works) later." She said with the sweetest smile plastered on her face.
Wow. Her smiles were phenomenal. She could seduce people with that face.
"Alright shall we go then?" I grinned and took her hand. I did that on purpose.
We looked like a real couple. Okay, this is a good way to start. Rima had the softest and tiniest hands ever. Okay, I am being a bit of a creep, but I couldn't help but to glance at what she had on. Rima wore a floral contrast top, stonewashed denim matelot shorts, and metallic bow sandals. That was hot.
Rima's POV
I didn't know if I was thinking it but Shiki is checking me out. His gaze swept over me. I shivered. Shiki also had a tight grip around my hand and my heart couldn't stop beating. I was enjoying this so far and he is taking me to lunch! This day couldn't get any better!
When we got to the food court, there were a lot of people, and a lot of people mean a lot of staring. Everywhere we walked there were gasps. Well it's no surprise everyone saw two models holding hands. They must have jumped to conclusions. There is nothing wrong with two friends walking in the mall holding…hands… Well…I think I would have thought of it that way if I were them too. I just ignored the staring and stuck to what the true story was.
The fact that we were holding hands had everyone buzzing. They thought we were going out! Before I know it, there were flashes. The people in the food court were taking pictures on their phones and cameras. This might get a messy after a couple of minutes. After today everyone will know we are going out when we are not! Shiki seemed to ignore it. I guess he doesn't really care what people think.
"So what do you want to eat?" He looked around the food court.
There were many varieties of foods we could order. I looked around too. I wasn't sure what to order. "I don't really know. I'm thinking…of Subway or Italian." I placed a hand on my chin.
"How about Italian then?" Shiki stared at the pizza place at the corner of the food court.
I nodded. As we walked to go order pizza, I noticed Shiki must have forgotten our hands were still tangled together. I guess he's distracted. When we got to the pizza place, the line was long. We waited patiently until it was our turn.
I was just standing in line when I noticed we were in front of a mother and a little girl. The little girl had brown hair and eyes. She was holding her mother's hand. I just thought that was the cutest thing ever.
When the little girl turned around, she screamed. "Oh my gosh it's Rima Touya and Senri Shiki!" Her mousy voice echoed through the whole food court. Then everyone turned to look at us.
Shiki snickered and I lowered my head because I didn't like all the attention we were getting.
"Rima and Shiki when I grow up I want to be just like you!" She hugged my legs.
My heart skipped a beat. I lightly blushed. Oh my gosh she is so cute!
The little girl's mother laughed. "Sorry Rima, Shiki, she's your biggest fan. Molly is always ripping pictures out of the magazines of you two and hanging them on the wall."
I smiled. I bent down to get to Molly's height her brown eyes staring into mine. I couldn't help it. I just had to pick her up. She's too cute! Her mother didn't mind it one bit. I think she was happy because Molly was actually meeting her biggest fans, us!
Shiki grinned at her. I literally got goose bumps seeing that smile. Ohhh myyyy goshhhh…
"How old are you Molly?" Shiki asked.
"I'm ummm…" She counted on her finger. "Three!" Molly held up four fingers instead. I giggled. She is so adorable!
Her mother laughed as well. "Well, are you two going out?" She just noticed our hands still being held together.
Shiki and I exchanged looks. "Uh no, we aren't dating, just eating out." I nervously laughed.
"Are you sure?" She glanced at our hands.
I lightly nudged at Shiki's hand. He let go. "I'm sure we aren't ma'am."
"Aw that's a shame. You two would make a really cute couple."
I wiggled my thumbs. What…?
I let Molly down and she had to leave. Suddenly, Molly starts to cry. I guess she doesn't want to go. Shiki and I waved her goodbye.
After we got our food, it was surprisingly easy to find a seat. I started to break the crust from the pizza. That was when the conversation started.
"So Rima…" Shiki glanced at his food and to me.
I took a bite out of the pizza. "Hmmm?"
"What do you plan on doing after high school?" he asked taking a bite out of the pineapple pizza.
"Of Course College." I smiled. A modeling school would be nice!
Shiki nodded. I gave his pizza a funny stare. Gross, Pineapple and peperoni pizza? That's nasty.
"What?" He looked up noticing I was staring at his food.
I blinked twice. "You really like that kind of pizza?" I pointed.
He took his time swallowing and then said, it's the freaking best pizza ever. You don't like it?"
"I hate it."
He grinned. "Hater."
I rolled my eyes. I would prefer a supreme pizza. What is not to love about a combination of vegetables and meat?
Shiki then gave my pizza the stare. "Ewww olives."
I knew better then to talk while my mouth was full so I got an olive and threw it at his plate.
"Mmmph!" He jumped while his mouth was full. I just laughed.
He was so cute and funny. I once in a while had visions of us going out. He would hold my hand and hug me. I kept on wondering what would happen if the whole school saw us together. I would get many girls jealous. I, sometimes, would want to get over Shiki. I have grown to like him, and that's a problem.
Shiki was looking at my plate again. "Rima, you don't like crust?"
I shook my head. "It's plain."
"Wow. We sure do like and dislike different things." He chuckled.
I giggled. "I also don't like watermelons."
Shiki's eyebrows arched. "How can you not like watermelon?"
"It tastes like water and sometimes when I eat it, my throat gets all itchy."
"Allergic?"
I shook my head in disagreement. I'm not sure if I'm allergic because sometimes it doesn't act up. I also have problems drinking milk. When I drink it I get all sorts of stomach aches. It is strange how all of the houses in the neighborhood have milk in their fridge and our house, I bet, is the only one on the block that doesn't. My mom hates it. I agree with her because the drink gives me a fishy after taste.
"Well it might—"He got cut off from the vibration in his pocket. "Sorry, I'm going to take this text."
I let him text. I wonder who it was when suddenly my phone rang. I picked it up and it was Yuki.
"Hello?"
"RIMAAAAA!"
I giggled. "What's up Yuki?"
"Are you and Shiki dating?" She yelled through the phone.
I lightly whispered in the phone. "What are you talking about?" I glanced over at Shiki who was making faces at his phone.
"There are pictures of you two holding hands!" She was jumping in the background. I could hear the glitch noises.
I didn't say anything.
"Well is it true? I thought you were not interested in athletic guys but Shiki is really sweet so you guys will do just fine!" I could tell Yuki was smiling by the way her voice increased.
I was still silent. I looked over at Shiki and he was done texting. He put his phone away and looked at me.
"Uhhh I have to go so bye." I whispered quickly through the phone.
"Wha—"
I ended the call.
After that, I received about 8 unread messages. I had the best feeling it was about the pictures of me and Shiki. I simply ignored them all.
"Uhhh sorry. My friend called me…" I wiggled my thumb.
He sighed. "It's fine. At least you don't have an ex who keeps texting you."
He has an ex?" "Ex…?"
"Yeah we broke up about six months ago."
I knew I shouldn't ask too much questions but I was curious. "Why?"
"She was to demanding and now she is back and bothering me because she thinks I am going out with you." He snickered.
"Yeah my friend was thinking the same thing too."
That was when he actually gazed in to my eyes. My heart skipped a beat. Oh my goodness. He is so CUTE!
I started to sound like one of those obsessed fan girls. That was dumb because I don't like fan girls. Oh crap, am I becoming one of those girls? Q A Q
That was when Shiki asked," Do you want to?"
I gave him a confusing look.
"Like…" He scratched his chest nut hair. "…go out?"
I was speechless but in my head I was thinking YES YES YESSSS!
I can't reject him. A guy I actually like is asking me out. Even though he's a jock I am going to break all the rules!
Shiki was still looking at me curiously. Then I nodded. He gave me the biggest smile ever.
Now…we are officially boyfriend and girlfriend.
I'M REALLY SORRY FOR THE LATE UPDATE! My computer crashed and I had to get it fixed and they had to refresh everything so all of my stories in my document got erased! I had to start everything over including this chapter, but I'm glad you guys stuck around even though I didn't upload in so long Thank you!
