Yo!
So sorry, I'm really late! .o. I'm very, very, very sorry! (I don't even have a proper excuse for God's sake! ;.;).
But to make it up for you, I made this chappie a little special~ (You must have noticed that it's pretty long hah XD).
How special?
Hmm…I don't know…maybe because…BETAXFEI HAS FINALLY BEGUN~! So, prepare for a lot (maybe?) of Fei x Beta in here :D
BUT BEFORE STARTING: I wanna thank all of you who reviewed the previous chap. I honestly thought it wasn't that nice ;.; SO THANK YOU I LOVE YOU GIMME A HUG.
(And Hime-Ozora, you really made me happy, I didn't think people from the Middle East would be reading this, too :D Thank you! .3.).
Enjoy!
Dear Diary,
Late.
Late.
LATE.
I am late for work!
Gamma.
Gamma.
GAMMA.
It's all because of him!
He was supposed to drive me to the mall, but when I told him it's time to go, he was all like 'No way I'm riding you there. Go ask your other brother, his phone is out of service.'
WHY, WHY DESTINY HATES ME SO MUCH.
Okay, you're probably confused with all that. And probably about what do phones have to do with anything.
Well, my child, let me tell you a wonderful fairytale about me and my brothers;
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful/awesome/cool/unique maid named Beta. She works as a…well…as a maid, except—(Wait what day is it? Wednesday? Oh, okay)–except Wednesdays, because she works as a…POP STAR on Wednesdays! (Isn't she the coolest girl ever?).
But there's the evil/wicked/troll/horrible/loser/not-cool prince named Gamma. He is the most presumptuous (Oh, the vocabulary!) person in the whole kingdom (And HE gets to be the prince! How messed up is that?!), and, he is utter crap at riding scooters/motorcycles/bikes/anything-with-wheels.
Also, there's the robot. His name is Alpha. He creeps Beta out.
…
A-anyways, prince Gamma always rides Beta to her work on Wednesdays, because he is actually a nice guy (Nice. HA!).
One day, Beta was ready for her work; she called Gamma saying it's time to go…
But he broke his promise.
He broke her heart.
He broke all the wonderful memories between them.
He broke— OKAY WE GET IT.
So, she is now begging him on the knees to ride her there, but apparently, he is waaaaaay too busy on his BlackBerry to do his promise.
Beta is practically freaking out and running around the castle searching for something with wheels to ride on, so her boss won't fire her.
Gamma is too busy chatting to notice.
Alpha isn't around.
And they all lived happily ever after!
…
WHY, WHY DESTINY HATES ME SO MUCH, WHY.
.
.
.
Like what I said before, Destiny hates me. That's why I'm gonna hate him/her/it, too! And no way! I'm not giving up that easily! I am going to the mall!
ON MY OWN FEET!
…Yeah, it'll take me some more hours, but at least I'm actually GOING there.
Before I left, I grabbed my purse and lunged into the bastard's room.
"Hey, you know what?! I DON'T NEED YOU! I can go by my own! I don't need your stupid scooter, I don't need to know your short cut, and I don't need you! I'll just walk there! …Even though that'll be a lot of steps…BUT AT LEAST, AT LEAST, I'm getting forty bucks! And you? You're getting zero bucks!"
"Yeah, whatever."
"…AND YOU BETTER REMEMBER THAT, YEAH!"
I huffed and turned toughly, but then he said…
"Hey, bring me a cheese burger and a soda when you're back."
…
…
…
"OUCH! What the hell, Beta?! Stop hitting me with the purse, ow!"
.
.
.
392…
393…
394…
395…
It's been three hundred and ninety five steps since I've left the house…still no sign of the mall…oh, God, I'm so tired…I think my knees crack at every single step…
Where's Kinako when I need her?
Sigh, I continued walking along with my bad luck. Bad Luck and I are best friends now, you know.
As I walked down the sidewalk (the street beside me is kind of busy), I heard some similar noise. As, really, really similar.
Hmm…
Oh! It must be a motorcycle, or some kind of a vehicle similar to it!
I hear the sound coming closer…hmm, could it be Gamma?
…
"Oh, Beta, how foolish was I! Come, come here, my lovely and talented sister, I'm going to drive you to work. You know, I really care about you, and I just realized it! Can you believe that?! But really, I just wanted to tell you that I love you and will never hurt you again. Therefore, I'm buying you a new beautiful dress~!"
Nope.
So…s-so….who…
I slowly turned my head and a black motorcycle coming my way…and the driver…
I narrowed my eyes to make a better view out of him…but that doesn't help, 'cause he's wearing a helmet!
EEEEEK, NO IT'S NOT GAMMA, NOPE!
Oh God, could he be a criminal?! I mean I have NEVER seen a person I actually KNOW driving a really cool BUT scary motorcycle! (NO GAMMA DOES NOT COUNT).
I turned my head again and— HE IS EVEN CLOSER TO ME NOW.
Meep, he could grab me at any minute and nobody will notice!
Beta, DO SOMETHING!
I breathed deeply…and quickened my pace! (But I'm not exactly running, because if I did the driver may be suspicious/angry/pissed/confused and I'll just end up making myself in a bigger trouble).
The closer he gets, the quicker I walk (And I'm sweating really, really hard!).
But if the situation continued to be like this then—
"Hey!"
…
OH MY GOD, HE JUST CALLED ME, HELP.
That's it Beta…RUUUUUUNNNNNN!
And so I started running, and I think I heard the driver gasp.
"Hey, w-wait! Stop, please!"
Oh, wow, did he just say the secret word?
Guess I'll stop running then.
…
NOT!
No way will I let that guy touch me—
"Beta-san!"
—Because I have my dignity and…
WOAH, WOAH, WOAH.
Did he just say my name?
.
.
.
I have never been so embarrassed in my entire life.
The driver didn't turn out to be a criminal whatsoever…
He turned out to be…
You're not going to believe this but he is actually FEI!
You CANNOT imagine my face when Fei removed his helmet.
I was first really angry and yelled at him, "You scared the hell out of me, Fei!"
"Oh, I am really sorry! I didn't mean to, I-I swear!"
But before I could say anything, Fei immediately bowed and apologized one more time.
"I'm very sorry."
And then I realized my mistake, the whole drama wouldn't have happened if I just stopped and asked him who he was in the first place. And I felt awful. Just look at Fei and you'll understand me!
He looks really…guilty. God, I made him feel like a real criminal, no?
At that moment my face turned pink from embarrassment…and regret. So I opened my mouth and spoke, "Look, it's not your fault, it's mine. I shouldn't have run away from you." I grinned sheepishly.
He looked at me and frowned, "No, I'm the wrong one here. I really should've just told you who am I, instead of frightening you like that. Sorry." And then he smiled at me.
Wow…
I…
H-his smile…
I…
My eyes widened slowly…and my cheeks turned pink…and my heart went all ba-dump ba-dump.
I instantly turned my head (SO HE WON'T SEE MY RIDICULOUS FACE)!
"Are you o—"
"YES."
Okay, maybe that was a little too fast. But at least I said the truth, right?!
"…Alright."
…
…
I decided to talk and BREAK THE STUPID AWKWARD SILENCE, "S-so, you didn't tell me! Aren't you a little young to drive that?" I pointed at the black vehicle.
He laughed nervously, "Actually, it's not mine."
"Oh! Then does it belong to a sibling of yours?"
"…You could say that." He grinned sheepishly.
I raised an eyebrow, but before I could say anything else, he talked again, "And what about you, Beta? To where are you walking?"
The last part made me cringe.
My face slowly dropped, and I gasped, "Darn, I totally forgot!" I panicked.
"Forgot what—"
"Sorry, I really have to go RIGHT NOW! I got work at the mall and I'm probably already half an hour late!" I turned on my heal and waved bye to Fei, "See you later—"
"Wait, you're going to walk to the mall?"
"Technically, I'm going to sprint to the mall."
"…"
"Hehe."
"Either way you'll not arrive until seven o'clock."
"…What time is it?"
"Six and fifteen minutes."
"…"
"…"
"…"
"I can ride you there!" Fei suddenly chirped, but then caught himself and calmed, "I mean, if you want to?"
"…"
"…"
"FEI, TURN ON THIS MOTORCYLE RIGHT NOW."
"Yes, ma'am!"
.
.
.
"Oh, shoot…"
"What's wrong?" I asked Fei when I noticed his disappointed face.
He turned to me with a weak smile, "There's only one helmet."
I slightly frowned, but then I replaced it with a grin, "It's okay! I don't need a helmet, anyways!"
He looked confused, but then he seemed to realize what I said and quickly his head, "No way, Beta-san, I'm not wearing the helmet."
"Eh—"
"You'll be the one wearing it!"
"But—!"
Before I could say or actually do anything, Fei has already set the helmet on my head.
AND IT, LIKE, COVERED MY WHOLE HEAD!
That Fei.
"Fei, no! I will not wear this helmet." I said as I glared at him.
Actually, what I am seeing isn't exactly Fei. What I'm seeing is a…black-haired, tanned Fei…?
Stupid covering-the-eyes-glass thingy!
…
Hey, I can just swivel the glass thing, right? So I could see better?
…
…
OKAY, FEI CAN NOW SEE MY GLARE.
He sighed, "You don't understand, it will protect you from…"
"From what?"
"Uh, the end of the world!"
"…The apocalypse?"
"Oh, wow, Fei, the weather is really nice tonight!"
"I know, right? But are you sure you don't want to wear the helmet?"
"Pfft, PUH-LEEZ. It won't be the end of the world if I didn't wear— OHMYGOD FEI LOOK THERE'S A ZOMBIE, NO THERE'S HUNDEREDS OF—"
"Helmets will protect you from zombies. Think about it, zombies eat brains, and if you wore the helmet, they cannot even touch your head! Smart, huh?"
"…But—"
"And it would protect you from birds, too!"
"Oh, wow, Fei, the weather is really nice tonight!"
"I know, right? But are you sure you don't want to wear the helmet?"
"Pfft, PUH-LEEZ. It's not like an owl is going to— OHMYGOD FEI THERE'S SOMETHING WITH FEATHERS JUST SLAMMED INTO MY FACE—"
"If you didn't wear the helmet, then you would go home showered in feathers and bird poop."
"…"
"…"
.
.
.
Victory is mine~!
Yes, I convinced (kindalikeforced) Fei to wear the helmet~! I mean, seriously, he is the one who needs it the most!
He is riding the motorcycle not me! So, I insisted that HE will wear it. And after 10 minutes, he gave up and wore it.
So, now we're on the way to the central mall.
Actually, we still aren't moving…
"Okay, Fei, let's go!" I cheered.
But he didn't replay…
…Is he angry at me?
And without a warning, he started driving.
I flinched and almost jumped off my seat.
Why didn't he tell me first?! I almost fell off!
I freaked, tightened my grip around his waist and practically buried my face into his back.
…
…
EEEEEK!
I immediately let go of his waist and pulled my face off his back.
I couldn't help but to blush bright pink. And before I knew it I was sweating nervously, too.
I couldn't really read Fei's expression, since he's wearing that helmet that practically covers his whole head.
I don't think if he even felt my grip, or the sudden loosening, because he didn't move or change his position in any way.
I sighed with relief. This time, I'm surely lucky, I won't get embarrassed again~!
…
Oh God, I just realized I'm not holding onto anything!
Umm…!
Oh.
I held Fei's shoulders.
There, that's better.
We stopped because of a traffic light, and…I've got to admit…motorcycles are scary. Plus, Fei actually knows how to drive well! (Thank God) (He should teach Gamma, seriously).
Though, I'm still worried that he might be mad at me…but come on, Fei! You can't be serious!
"Beta."
I flinched. He sounds…cold…and serious! I mean, he didn't add a –san on that one! (Oh God he must be really angry).
"Yeah, Fei?"
"Close your eyes."
I blinked, "W-why?"
"Just close them."
What's wrong with him? I couldn't read his expression again, thanks to the stupid helmet.
For some reason, my face turned into a deep shade of red.
I-I mean…I couldn't help but to think that maybe…maybe he wants to….you know…because of his tone of voice and all that…
Do you really think he wants to…ki—
"Gotcha!"
He grabbed my head…
"Eh—"
Click!
…
I blinked.
What just happened…?
…
…
Hah!
He just practically shoved his helmet on my head!
We switched, I'm wearing the helmet now!
I can't take it off, because maybe there's some sort of a lock in it or something!
He tricked me!
That Fei.
He winked at me, "Haha, and you thought I'd let you sit without protection." He grinned, "Well, then, you're wrong~"
I narrowed my eyes at him, but that doesn't seem to affect him, since he's just staring blankly at me. Stupid helmet.
"You tricked me!"
He laughed, "Smart, huh?"
I puffed my cheeks from annoyance, "And I thought you were going to—"
HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUNK !
Both of us flinched, and two seconds later Fei automatically continued driving.
That was after we realized that the traffic light was green for ten seconds and we didn't notice.
Truly yours,
Beta the clueless (And I'm not happy about it).
And that was my first thing to update in 2013~! :DD
If you liked the Beta x Fei in here then fasten your belts, 'CAUSE THERE'S EVEN MORE IN THE NEXT CHAPTERSSS (XD).
Also, umm, guys I wanna ask a question .o. Since I like you all and trust you, what do you think of me making a tumblr for myself? .o. ('cause a lot of you have one and it actually seems fun! :D). So, please tell me what do you think? ^^ (hehe, I'm asking for your opinion 'cause I'm seriously not good in decisions orz).
ANYWAYS, hoped you enjoyed this chappie, please review, and see you in the next chapter!
Bye bye~
