Disclaimer: I don't own DNAngel or its characters. Just Reae and Jin and this story. One more thing why would I post my story on a site for fanfiction if the characters were really mine. Let's face it if the characters were mine all the really cute and hot guys would be gay and bi.
Authors note: I'm sorry everybody! I'm sorry it's taken soooooooooooooooooo long to get this chapter up. I would not blame you my loyal fans if you were to flame me for it but please don't. I'm sensitive. Dark: HAHAHA! Yeah right.
A/N: I noticed in chapter 6 that I typed chapter 5 please ignore it.
Ch. 7
Surprise Surprise
School got out. Reae and Satoshi dropped Daisuke off at his house, and are now at home getting ready to have dinner with the Niwa's. Satoshi being Satoshi didn't primp. As always he just threw on something else to where. He wore a pair of slimming blue jeans and a light blue long sleeve shirt. Reae however, compared to Satoshi's five minute quick change took and hour to get ready. She went upstairs, took a shower, put on make up, and blow dried he hair. Then she had to choose what she would wear. She went with a knee-length light blue free flowing skirt and a Japanese styled top with cherry blossom designs on a dark blue back ground. She also wore light blue high heels. Then she went back to the bathroom and spritzed on perfume.
(A/N: I just now realized that I make the Hikari's wear blue a lot.)
When Reae finally came down, she was met with a questioning stare from Satoshi.
"What?" She asked
"You done now?"
"I'm sorry I took so long. I had to go through the same thing when I first met Jin's mother. I just don't want his Aunt to immediately hate me at first sight along with his grandfather, and uncle."
"Why are you more worried about impressing the woman in the family more than the men?"
"Because when it comes to a son from a family introducing any form of girl to his family, the women tend to be a bit more. Oh, what's the word...untrustworthy? Yes, that's it untrustworthy! They are a bit more untrustworthy when it comes to women, when a member of the family that is male meets her, they will not doubt her as much."
"I see."
Satoshi noticed the ring on Reae's finger again. You know the one that looks like an engagement ring.
"Reae, why are you wearing an engagement ring?"
Reae gave him a questioning look. Satoshi gestured his head to her hand that had the ring on. Reae took notice of it then.
"Oh, this? It's just a ring I bought to help keep men away from me. Once they see an engagement or wedding ring they go away running."
"I see."
"Well let's not stand here let's get going!"
(At the Niwa home.)
At the Niwa house hold everyone was happily talking with Jin after finally seeing him after a year.
"So Jin how long are you staying to visit this time?" asked Daisuke
"Well I'm actually moving here."
"Really! I'm so happy then we can see each other almost every day!" said Emiko giving Jin a death hug.
"I'm glad to hear it Aunt Emiko. By the way a friend of mine is coming to have dinner with us and is bringing their little brother to. Its o.k. right?"
"Of course Jin! Any friend of yours is a friend of ours!" she said happily.
Daisuke and Jin were both thinking how she had no idea who she said she would be friends to. Let's just say that on the inside Jin and Dark were cracking up, while Daisuke was slightly unnerved.
"Jin by the way. When are you going to get married? I haven't waited since the day you were born for nothing I hope." Said Daichi
"No not for nothing. In fact I actually have my eyes set on someone."
"Good for you Jin. Just don't rush anything." Said Kosuke.
"Don't worry I won't."
That's when the door bell rang.
"I'll get that's probably them." Said Jin standing up to go get the door.
The Niwa's that were left in the living room could here what was said at the door.
"Oh, good you guy's finally made it!" said Jin
"Yes sorry if we're a bit late. You no the thing I have about making a good impression on my best friend's family." Came a woman's voice. (A/N: I wonder who it could be. Dun dun dun!)
Daisuke immediately recognized Reae's voice. (A/N: Well there you go.)
"Please come on in and meet the family." Said Jin
The Niwa's heard footsteps headed their way. Jin then appeared in the hallway.
"Aunt Emiko, Uncle Kosuke, Grandpa meet Reae…"
And that's when Reae stepped into the room. Along with Satoshi
"…and her little brother Satoshi."
Everyone but, Daisuke went wide-eyed. Emiko and Daichi's jaw hit the floor and Kosuke took on a look of confusion and surprise. Daisuke only took on his normal appearance.
"Hey Satoshi, hey Reae."
"Hello, Daisuke it's good to see you again." Said Reae smiling.
"Hey." Was all Satoshi said.
"Daisuke! You now her?! And she Satoshi's older sister?! How?!" yelled Emiko frantically.
"Mom I know her because she's my new art teacher and yes she's Satoshi's sister."
"Older sister." Reae felt that she had to point out.
"Is there something wrong Aunt Emiko?" asked Jin
"N-no. Not at all Jin. Just a little surprised is all."
"Well that's good because I have an announcement to make. I think everyone would want to sit down for this. Except Reae she all ready knows what I'm going to say."
"Why do we need to sit down?" asked Emiko as she and everyone else but Reae sat down.
"Well I'm getting married!" yelled Jin
"Oh, Jin that's wonderful! I'm so happy for you! Who is it?" asked Emiko who was literally bouncing in her seat.
"I'm getting married….to Reae!" said Jin
Everyone's jaws hit the floor and went wide-eyed. Except for Satoshi that is because he's smart like that.
"Is this what you expected would happen when we would tell them?" Jin asked Reae
"No but, pretty close." Said Reae with a sweat drop.
"A Hikari and a Niwa getting married! I won't allow it!" yelled Dark and Krad.
Reae took on an annoyed look.
"You okay?" asked Jin
"Yeah just a headache as all ways." Said Reae as she glared at Krad and Dark.
"Ah I see." Jin said understanding what she was talking about.
"So um, you two are getting married." Said Aunt Emiko.
"Yep."
"What did your mother say?"
"She was excited couldn't be happier. She loves Reae."
"She does. Does she know she's a Hikari?" asked Daichi
"Yep."
"Well I'm happy for you Jin." Said Kosuke
"Thank you Uncle Kosuke."
"So Reae you're an art teacher." Said Emiko
"Yes." Said Reae
"Well that's nice."
"Daisuke is a very good artist. I was thinking of putting one of his pieces in the nation wide school art contest."
"Really!"
"Yes, I'm not going to announce who from our school will be representing us until next week."
"Dai-chan did you here that!"
"You call him Dai-chan? That's just so cute!"
"I know. Do you have any nicknames for Satoshi?"
"Of course! I call him Sato-chan!"
"That's adorable!"
Daisuke and Satoshi were sitting in their respective seats blushing like crazy! Now let's take a moment to see the thoughts of our favorite angels.
'Sato-chan?' thought Dark 'That is cute.' Dark gets a huge goofy grin.
'She calls him Dai-chan. Well it does sound cute…..Ah! What the hell am I thinking?' Krad thought.
"Well dinner's ready. Let's all go into the dinning room." Said Emiko
Everyone goes and sits down to eat.
"Mmm…Mrs. Niwa this is delicious."
"Thank you Reae! Just call me Emiko."
"What ever you say Emiko."
"So what kind of ring did Jin get you?" asked Emiko
Reae showed her the ring.
"He went to Jared." Said Emiko excitedly
"He went to Jared." Kosuke told Daichi.
"He went to Jared." Said Daichi proudly.
"He went to Jared?" questioned Daisuke, Satoshi, Krad, and Dark. Not understanding the importance of it.
"He went to Jared." Reae smiled lovingly at Jin.
"I went to Jared."
"It's so beautiful." Said Emiko
"Thank you." Said Reae and Jin at the same time.
"So how did you two meet?" asked Daichi
"Well let's just say for Jin it was a little on the humiliating side." Said Reae. "It was during my second time going through high school when we met. I had all ready graduated from college when I was about fourteen. I went through high school again to have a somewhat normal life"
"A little humiliating. Is that what you call it? Try I never heard the end of it from everybody else." Said Jin
(Flash back)
Jin was sitting on a bench outside the school with his best friend Kyo.
"So Jin have you heard about the new kid coming today."
"We're getting a new kid?" questioned the fifteen year old Jin.
"Yeah suppose to be some kind of genius."
"Great just what we need another smart person."
"Hey I bet this one is incredibly ugly."
"Maybe."
A black mustang convertible pulled up to the front of the school. The back door opened and a fifteen year old Reae stepped out. Jin's eyes widened as did Kyo's.
"Whoa, who's that?" questioned Kyo.
"I don't know." Said Jin.
The principle of the school came rushing out of the building. She was standing in front of Reae in a matter of seconds.
"Ah, Miss Hikari I can't express how wonderful it is for someone of your genius to be coming to our school!"
"Whatever." Said Reae in that cold way Satoshi talked in.
Reae and the principle started walking to the school.
"Jin let's go say hi." Said Kyo.
"What?! No, wait!" cried Jin
To late Kyo had grabbed Jin's wrist and started dragging him over to where Reae was. As they got closer they could hear the principle rambling on about the history of the school and all that. Anyone who saw Reae's face could tell she was very annoyed.
"Kyo, why? We don't want to get caught in the principle's lecture."
"Don't think about it like that. Think about like we're rescuing a damsel in distress."
"Fine." Said Jin dropping his head in defeat.
Jin and Kyo walked up and stood right next to Reae. Both on either side of her.
"Hello! My names Kyo. This is my friend Jin. We heard your last name was Hikari. What's your first?"
"Reae." Said Reae giving them a look questioning their sanity.
"Mr. Uchiwa! Mr. Niwa! What is the meaning of this?"
"Well Principle-san we figured we would come to say hello to the new kid." Said Kyo
"Can't you see your ruining the tour of the school. And what are you two doing out here anyway? All students should be inside!"
"Kyo what time is it?" asked Jin
"It's five till eight."
"Wow, It's seven fifty-five and were already ruining his day." Said Jin with a stupid goofy grin.
"Cool that's new for us." Said Kyo with and equally goofy grin.
Jin noticed Reae reached her hand up to cover her mouth as if hiding a smile.
"Just go!" Said the principle
"Fine." Said Jin.
"But we're taking Reae with us!" exclaimed Kyo.
They both took hold of one of Reae's wrists and started running away. Reae instead of running was what more likely looked like she was being dragged. Once they were inside they ran into the cafeteria where the other students were. They didn't stop till they got to the very middle. They let go of her wrists and turned to see their supposed damsel in distress. When they looked they saw her with a look of confusion and annoyance.
"Well Re-chan looks as if our mission to rescue you from our principle was a success." Said Kyo. "It warms my heart so."
"I have some thing to ask the both of you." Said Reae.
"Oh, what is it?" asked Jin
"Is there any medication you two are supposed to be taking that you haven't taken today."
Jin and Kyo gawked and did twin anime falls.
"Men." Said Reae. She turned and proceeded to walk away.
"Fine. After all we go through to save her she treats us like that." Said Kyo.
"Well we did kind of act like retards."
"True. But she didn't have to be stuck up about it."
"Kyo."
"Yes?"
"Shut up."
"But she is-……Wait a second you like her!"
"What?!"
"You heard me you like the new kid!"
"So what if I do."
"I promise that as long as I live and my name is Kyo that I will help you get a date with the new hot girl!"
"Why would I need your help?"
"Because you maybe awesome when it comes to sports and stuff but, in the area of love your completely helpless."
"Hey!"
(Flashback end)
"Damsel in distress?" said Reae giving Jin a stern look.
"You have to admit the principle was completely dull."
"So how did you two start going out?" questioned Emiko.
"Well….." said Jin.
"This is where Jin's humility begins." Said Reae (Yuki: Hey that rhymed!)
(Flashback.)
Reae was walking down one of the halls of the school heading to her locker. Jin quickly went to her locker and put some roses in it. He saw Reae coming and hid behind the corner. Reae went to her locker opened it exchanged books and left. Then a guy walked up and opened his locker and the roses fell out. Jin rushed to go grab them in an effort to fix his mistake. To late the guy picked up the roses and read the card. He turned to look at Jin wide eyed.
"It's not what you think." Said Jin
"Whatever you say man." The guy said as he handed the roses back to Jin. The guy then slowly walked away.
(Flash back end.)
"You got me roses?" asked Reae
"Yeah you didn't get them I put them in your locker the one right next to that guys."
"To the left or right."
"Right."
"That wasn't mine."
"Don't let it be another guy. Don't let it be another guy." Said Jin looking like he was praying to any god that was listening.
"It was Rini Sigarashi's locker."
"So that's why she kept giving me those looks." Said Jin a visible shiver going down his spine.
Everyone was laughing.
"Wait, wait let me get this straight." Said Emiko a tear in her eye. "Jin put the roses in the wrong locker twice."
"From what I can tell." Said Reae. "My best friend Serene, whom I met my second week there, told me about the guy getting roses from Jin but, I never knew about Rini."
"And there were many more stunts as well." Said Jin
"There's one where you fell down the stairs, where you got covered in school mystery stew, and then there's the time when we were doing that school play."
"Yeah but none wants to here that one."
"Yes, yes we do." Said Daichi
(Flashback.)
"O.k. everyone we're going to be having a class project." Said the teacher.
Everyone moaned and grunted in despair.
"We're putting on a play! Everyone must participate. You may choose the play and take a class vote on who plays the parts."
When the teacher finished everyone some what brightened up. The class decided to go with one they all new and chose 'Romeo and Juliet'. Next were the characters. Everyone chose Reae as Juliet. Everyone saw Reae visibly slap her forehead with her hand. Jin got Romeo and Kyo Mercutio.
Everyone got their lines and started going over them. Reae and Serene walked by Jin and Kyo.
"Whoa." Said Kyo
"What?" asked Jin
"Who's that?" asked Kyo pointing at Serene
"Oh, that's Reae's best friend Serene. Why you ask?"
"She's hot. What's her part?"
"I believe she plays Juliet's Nurse."
"Wow I just realized something."
"What?"
"This play is nothing but irony. Your character is pinning for his Juliet. And your Juliet just happens to be Juliet. While my character is your characters best friend. And Serene is Reae's best friend who is playing her characters best friend." Said Kyo
"You know what makes even more ironic is that the guy playing Paris has a big a crush on Reae as I do."
"Wow this entire play is nothing but irony. The guy playing Tybalt practically hates everyone except everyone that's playing a Capulet."
"Wow your right. Nothing but irony."
"O.k. now that you all have your parts let's get started." Said the teacher.
They went over some of the lines. And then they started to do the sword fight scenes. First was Romeo versus Paris.
"You know Jin that you can't win her." Whispered the other guy while their 'swords' (Read as small sticks made of foam.) were locked.
"We'll see about that." Said Jin.
FF >>
It was opening night. Everyone was nervous as hell. The set was up and beautifully made. Jin and Kyo peeked out of the curtain slightly. Both were fully dressed in their costumes.
"God this thing itches!" Complained Kyo for the hundredth time that night about is costume.
"Tell me about it what did those girls make them out of, straw?" asked Jin
"I don't know, but whatever it is I hate it."
Reae then walked by her long hair was pulled back into a braid. The braid only made it half way down her hair a) because it looked good and b) the hair and make up crew got tired of messing with it. She no longer wore her glasses. Instead she wore contacts. She wore a long silk looking gown. It was white with gold. On her head rested what looked like a cross between a tiara and a head band. She was just standing there looking bored. She most likely was.
Jin went all love sick puppy looking. Frankly it scared Kyo.
"Dude get your head in the game." Said Kyo giving Jin a noogie.
"Stop that!" cried Jin
"Then stop going all love struck school girl on me!"
Reae looked over at the two friends the whole time.
'Idiots.' She thought.
She saw as Jin started yelling at Kyo. Something about not being a school girl. Reae unknowingly smiled.
'On the other hand Jin is kind of cute when he gets frustrated like that. He looks kind of like a chibi when he starts yelling like that. Ah! Stop it.'
"Hey Reae!" someone yelled
Reae turned and saw Serene running over to her.
"Hey Serene."
"Re-chan how many times do I have to tell you? Call me Se-chan." said Serene with a grin.
"Sorry. I've just never had a best friend before."
"It's o.k. I understand. When I was going to my old school I was considered an out cast. So I never made friends."
"Why?"
"Because apparently nobody over there liked rock music. And well seeing as how I'm trying to start my own rock band. That kind of made me a target for the jokes as well as my belief in gay marriage. If you truly love someone you should be able to marry them no matter what."
Reae smiled at her friend's forwardness in her beliefs. Reae guessed that that was why they were friends. Serene did all the things that Reae was to afraid to do. Serene would openly admit her beliefs while Reae would try to hide them. Reae just couldn't comprehend how anybody would dislike Serene and her cheery personality. She wasn't the over hyperactive cheery but right at the make anyone smile cheery. From the short time Reae has known her she has found Serene to be loyal, outgoing, caring, and optimistic. Reae was loyal but she hadn't yet developed the others. But she hopes to someday.
"Anyway, you all set Reae? I mean Juliet." said Serene giving a dramatic bow.
"If you mean that I'm in costume, know the lines, and think this is a complete waste. Then yes I'm set."
"Good. Hey Re-chan."
"There's a guy looking at you."
"What?"
"Yeah see."
Serene spun Reae around in the direction of where the guy was. When Reae looked she saw Jin looking at her and if she didn't know better Kyo staring at Serene. But that's not the point. The point is that Jin was staring at her!
"Oh I know that look! You like him!"
"What?! Don't be absurd."
"You want to hug him! You want to kiss him! You want to love him!" Serene started signing.
"Shut up."
"But still," said Serene becoming serious "you should ask him out."
"Alright so what if I like him. Why do I have to ask?"
"Because the first step in a loving relationship is to admit your feelings, suck it up and ask them out."
"Fine but what if he says no."
"Judging by the look on his face he wants you to ask him."
"You think so?"
"I'm positive." Serene said in a caring way
"Alright, but after the play."
"O.k."
"Hey Jin." Said Kyo
"What?"
"I have an idea on how you can win her heart."
"How?"
Kyo then started to whisper his ingenious plan into Jin's ear
"You know that sound like a good plan."
"Of course it does. I thought of it anyway."
"O.k. everyone!" yelled the teacher excitedly "Places the show is about to start!"
(End flashback)
"O.k. so Jin's Kyo was cooking up a scheme for you two to go out, while your friend Serene was telling you to just ask him out." Stated Emiko
"That about sums it up."
"Serene what a curious name." said Daichi
"Her parents were hippies when they had her." Said Reae
"Oh."
Knock. Knock. Knock.
"Open up it's the police!" someone called from outside. "We know the Phantom Thief is in there! If you surrender now it won't beheld against you in the court of law!"
"SHIT!" yelled all the Niwa's.
Yuki: Now who might that be rap tap taping on your door Dai-chan?
Daisuke: How am I supposed to know?
Reae: I know who it is!
Yuki: Of course you do my All Nighter Buddy.
Satoshi: Wait I could have sworn here was a hint of Daisuke and Krad pairing in there.
Yuki: Right as always.
Daisuke: So that means-
Krad: She paired us together.
Daisuke: (gulp)
Yuki: Review please!
Reae: Review and we promise to get her to type the next chapter quicker.
(Everyone glares at author)
Yuki: What?
(glare)
Yuki: O.k. I'll hurry it up! But Rome wasn't built in a day!
Dark: And a story is finished in less than a year if you're quick about it.
Yuki: Well bye, bye!
