Hello! Here's chapter 9 hope you like! This chapter is almost like eps 16(just for a better picture of the chapter). Please Review.
Tenma's birthday was only a week a way. Harima and mikoto had a plan all worked out about how he was going to ask tenma to the ball. Eri on the other hand was trying to plan out her own way to ask harima to the ball.
"ok everyone in the past two months we have accomplished a lot! So as a reward we planned a little camp out in the mountains!" hanai says. The whole committee cheered, they all had worked endlessly and without a free weekend since they started the planning for the ball. So this was a big relief that they had something fun to do for a change. "The trip will be this coming weekend so make sure your free." Hanai finishes. "And my birthday is that day! (Nov. 30th)" Tenma yells out. "yeah so we're going to do a little something for her up there! She committed 75 people to come to the ball, she earned it!" Mikoto says.
Over the past month tenma and harima had got even closer then before. She would hang out with him after and before school. They would talk about whats going on in there lives and so on. But eri also was still in the picture. Every chance she got to hang out with harima she took it. Mikoto tried to counter in by throwing tenma into the pictue which worked all the time.
"that's all for todays meeting you are free to go." Hanai ends the meeting. "hey harima!" tenma calls to harima who turns "whats up?" "Do you want to come over for dinner with me and yakumo?" she asked. Harima wanted to jump into the sky in happiness. "yeah!"he says
Then eri walks up "whats going on?" she asks. "Oh Eri…you want to come along and have dinner with us at my house?" tenma smiled. Eri smiled back " Yeah I would love to!" "then were off…" then tenma's pigtails spring up "wait! Wheres yakumo!" Tenma looks around to see her with hanai. She runs over there and pulls her away from hanai. "come on yakumo! We have guest over tonight." Then hanai came running over and grabbed tenma's foot "wait! Can I come miss Tsukamoto!" he cried. "Ugh…we might as well invite mikoto and akira!" she kick hanai off her foot.
Tsukamoto house
Yakumo, mikoto, and sara were cooking up a big meal for all of them. Since mikoto was in the kitchen, Akira was keeping an eye on eri. Akira decided to shaking things up a bit, she was going to put eri on the spot. Without using any names, the only ones who will know what she talking about is herself and eri. "hey tenma." She calls, tenma looks up "whats up?"
"Can I ask you a question about a situation I had once in my life?" akira asked. Tenma smiled " Yeah lay it on me."
"ok…one of my cousins liked this girls in his class. He decides to get help from his friends and family. I happened to be one of the family members that he turns to. Anyways, we all work hard to get them together and everything seem to be going well. Until one of his friends who know about this love decided he liked the same girl. So he starts making moves to get with this girl knowing that his friends worked so hard to get them together. What would you tell this friend if you were in the group that was trying to get them together." Akira finished.
Tenma really thought about it " well I would feel beytrayed , I would ask why are you doing this, what about the other person, do you want to distory everthing we done?" tenma says but eri cuts her off "But what if the girl doesn't feel the same way for the person?" eri says. "well…in that case I think the person should wait until that person has there answer. If all doesn't go well then that person can do what they want." Tenma finishes. "but what if they don't care?" akira asks. "then they are no friend of my and It would be war." Tenma says. Those last words hit eri very hard it made eri's heart hurt a bit. Harima and hanai had no idea what they were talking about.
Day of the camp out and tenma's birthday
Everyone was able to make to the meeting spot. Tenma was excited that it was her birthday and couldn't wait until they got to the cabin to celebrate. When they got to the campsite they put there stuff into the cabin and set up for dinner outside. After dinner they sang happy birthday to tenma and ate a cake.
"Ok everyone now its time to draw straws for the teams in the scavenger hunt!" mikoto said. She winked at him and he knew what that met. They both had rigged the draw to get tenma and harima together so he could ask her to the ball.
Five minutes later
"what the hell happened I want to be with tenma not her sister!" harima said. "I don't know what happened? I was for sure that it would be the right draw, someone else must of mess with it!" and mikoto had a good idea who did it. Eri must of mess with it to get with harima but she must of did it in a hurry." Well there goes my special night" harima cried. "sorry buddy we'll think of something else when we get back home." Mikoto said. Harima and mikoto were standing outside the cabin when the whole group came out for the game.
"First group get ready…"
"ok Asou lets do are best!" Mikoto said, this made asuo blush a bit "yeah lets!"
"GO!" Asuo and mikoto run off into the forest. The Next group was Hanai and Akira. Then the next was tenma and Eri. Last was Yakumo and Harima, Karen was in the forest already she made sure that no one got lost. "Ok tenma's sister lets go!" they both ran into the forest. "Damn I should be with tenma right now!" he thought. Then out of no where it started raining. "Crap! Come on Tenma's sister lets find cover!" harima called. They both found a old school building to stay in.
"I'll get a fire going." Harima said looking for wood. After a little effort he got a fire going. Now they sat there close to the fire trying to stay warm. Harima decides to make small talk to pass the time "Hey Tenma's sister can I ask you something?" harima asked. Yakumo nodded.
"its been two months since you got with hanai. I don't mean to be nosy but your relationship looks like its going no where. So why do you stay with him?" he asked. "well…This is all new to me, I mean being a girlfriend. I don't know what to do or how to act, don't get me wrong I like hanai. Its just I'm pretty clueless when it comes to relationship stuff." She smiled with a light blush. "I see…So how do you think tenma will take it when I tell her I love her?" harima asked.
Yakumo was surprise at the question. "ummm…Its hard to say…She likes you a lot as a friend but I'm not sure if she does the other way. She really loved karasuma and its been haft a year since he left. I don't think she has fully healed from him leaving, she doesn't talk about much. I think she needs to hear the words from you." Yakumo finished.
Harima took in every word, then yakumo broke his train of thought. "So why my sister harima?" she asked. Harima blush a bit "well…I like everything about her. Her eyes, her hair, and just the way she is. Shes always able to put a smile on my face. She turned me into the man I am today…That's why I'm in love with your sister…"
The whole world seem to go silent, even the rain seem to go mute. "Wh-Wh-What did he says?" Tenma turned very very red. She couldn't kid herself, she heard him loud and clear. Even though he didn't say her name she was yakumo's sister. Tenma had started listening in the room next door right in the middle of harima telling why he loved her. She didn't know that was her until he said what he said. Kenji harima was in love with her…the thought was overwhelming. The shock turned into confusion it seem that it was to much to hold in.
"why me? Harima…" she thought, then eri came in on tenma. "there you are! I've been looking for you for a while." Eri said. Tenma got up trying to hide her red face "lets go…"
The game was cut short because of the rain so everyone went back to the cabin. Tenma didn't say much during the rest of the camp out. She couldn't sleep that night. So many things were running through her mind.
On the other hand harima started planning to ask out tenma to the ball. With the help of Yakumo and mikoto they planned to set up a meeting between the two of them at yagami shrine. With now only two weeks left till the ball it was all or nothing.
