Misaki's POV
"Hello?" I answered picking up my phone.
"Hey, Misa-chan," Ikuto chirped. I groaned.
"How many times have I told you not to call me that?" I asked him, frustrated.
"Where are you?" he asked suddenly.
"I'm almost at the restaurant we're supposed to meet in. Why?" I questioned curiously.
Ikuto/Takumi's POV
Damn. Oh, God, please don't let Tora get there before me. He might take that chance to do something to Misaki. Revenge, maybe. Because I saved her from that bastard that day in Miyabigaoka. He probably thinks I won't be able to save her now.
"Why did you leave without me? I told you I'd pick you up Misa-chan," I whined.
"Ok, first of all, don't call me that! And, second of all, you never told me you'd pick me up. And third of all, I don't need you to pick me up! I'm totally capable of getting there on my own," she screamed angrily into the phone.
"Ayuzawa, what about Tora-," I started.
"I have to go," she said. And she hung up.
Misaki's POV
Who does he think I am? Did he expect me to wait for him so he could drive me there? Why the hell did he just assume he was going to drive me? He didn't even tell me he was going to pick me up. It doesn't matter; I'm almost at the restaurant. I was in back of the building.
Someone grabbed me and pinned me against the outside wall of the building. I groaned. Why did I always get in these type of situations.
"Do you remember me, Misaki?" a familiar voice asked.
"What do you want from me, Tora?" I asked annoyed.
"Oh, so you do remember me," he said grinning. "And is that any way to talk to the new superintendent. I can fire you anytime."
I glared at him. "Shall we continue what we were doing that day, before Usui barged in?" he asked. I tried to remember what he was talking about. "Oh, don't look so horrified," he said with a smirk. I tried to kick him. He hardened his grip on me and leaned closer, so I struggled to get out of his grasp, but with no luck.
"Misaki, you're fighting a losing battle there," he said against her lips. Then he tried to invade her mouth, biting on her lips.
"Hey, what're you doing?" someone screamed. Tora turned to see who it was, but still remained close to her and not letting her out of his hold. "Let go of her!" the other guy screamed. Tora grinned. That little distraction was just what I needed. I bit his arm and he yelped in pain. I kicked him hard enough for him fall down. I put my foot on his chest.
"Don't you ever try to do that ever again," I said threateningly.
He looked up at me a wild grin on his face. "You don't want to get fired, do you?" he asked. I hesitated, then lifted my foot.
"Goodbye, Tora," I said turning around and walking away. I heard him get up.
"Misaki, don't worry I'll try to make your job miserable," he said. I turned around and glared at him.
"Come at me, bitch," I said.
He chuckled.
Ikuto/ Takumi's POV
Well, that was quite a show there. It's so very amusing watching her be feisty. And there was yet to come.
"Come at me, bitch," she said. I fell over laughing. This was hilarious. (A/n: You must be having fun there, honey.) She turned around to shoot me a deadly glare. Meanwhile, Tora charged up behind her. She turned around just in time to punch him in the face. Whoa, he didn't see that coming. He stumbled backwards his hand on his eye.
"You know that I know judo, right, Misaki?" he asked with amusement in his voice.
She smiled a kind of threateningly smile. "Oh I know that. And do you think I don't know judo, honey?" she asked sweetly. With that they began to fight. I took a deep breath and went in. Pretty easily actually, I managed to separate them and kept them in a position that if they moved I could easily knock them out. Misaki looked at me in astonishment. "How did you do that?" she asked her eyes wide.
"I guess I'm just better than both of you," I smiled.
"Moron," she muttered.
"Both of you have to stop it now. You make any more commotion, pretty soon, someone's going to come here," I said. I let go of both of them.
"Fine, goodbye," Misaki said and walked away.
"Want me to drive you home?" I asked.
"Uh, whatever," she replied. I looked at Tora and gave him a look that meant 'stay away from her' and walked behind Misaki.
"Bye, Sitwat," I said and walked out the back door. I walked down a road between two buildings towards my car. At the end of the building was a dark figure. I squinted my eyes to try and make out the figure. He was leaning against the red brick wall with his arms crossed. Looked like he had been there a while.
"Ah, you're finally out," he said. Tora. "It's been a while, Usui Takumi."
"How do you know?" I asked.
"You have to be as stupid as Misaki to not guess that it's you," he answered with a laugh. My hands involuntarily clenched into fists. No one called my Misaki stupid, but me.
"What do you want?" I asked. I walked towards him and stopped right in front of him. He had an evil smile on his face.
"Isn't it such a coincidence that I'm in New Jersey at this particular time?" he asked mysteriously.
"How did you find her? How did you find where she moved to?" I asked harshly. His grin got wider.
"Oh, I suppose that's been bothering you awhile. Hasn't it?" he asked not answering my question.
"I asked you a question! I expect you to answer it, Mr. Igarashi," I said, gritting my teeth.
"Someone told me she lived here," he answered.
"Who?" I asked curiously.
"I'm not even so sure myself. But they gave me money to come here," he explained.
"You would've come here even if you weren't offered money."
"But they didn't know that. I got a two for one deal," he laughed. "But anyways, they told me to give this to you," he said. He took out an envelope from inside his jacket, and handed it to me, and then walked away. I stood there staring at the envelope. Finally, I walked to my car, sat inside, turned the lights on, and opened the envelope. Inside was a note containing one sentence written in plain black ink. No signature, nothing. Just one threatening sentence.
'Stay away from the Ayuzawa girl or I will thrust horror upon horror to her fragile little soul and her stupid little family.'
A/n: Sorry it took awhile, I've been having a lot of homework. I'll try to update my next chapters sooner.
