One of Those Days
A Hana Yori Dango Drabble
By Maho-chan

It was one of those days when nothing went quite right. Tsukasa hadn't gotten to talk to Tsukushi before leaving for school and it had thrown off his whole morning.

Tsukasa glowered at the students passing him in the hall, resolutely ignoring their stares. He ran his fingers through his hair and grumbled as some girl scrutinized his legs. He didn't care if it was snowing. He didn't feel like getting dressed up today and since he was the leader of the entire school, if he wanted to wear basketball shorts to school, well he could.

It would be a new fashion statement, he grumpily thought. And those who didn't appreciate it were a bunch of morons.

A hand landed on his shoulder and Tsukasa turned and found himself face to face with Akira.

"Hey, man, what's up?" Akira looked Tsukasa up and down and raised his eyebrows. Tsukasa growled low in his throat and Akira carefully let go. "Ah, well, you know, Tsukushi is over there waiting for you."

Tsukasa pushed Akira out of the way and stalked over to where Tsukushi stood. He bore down on her, an angry look on his face, only to stop in surprise as she calmly held up a cup of coffee. She placed it firmly in his hands, ignoring his intent stare. She motioned for him to drink, a slight frown on her face. Tsukasa dutifully drank as he watched her closely.

"You idiot, I went to your house this morning, you know." She started. Tsukasa choked a little.

She raised an eyebrow at him. "I even brought you some onigiri, but you had already left." Tsukushi reached into her bag and pulled out a small bento box. Taking out one of the onigiri that was inside, she reached up and popped the entire piece in Tsukasa's mouth, as she absently said. "I thought I'd surprise you today but I understand if you were busy."

Tsukasa let out a little disagreeing sound, his mouth full of rice.

"You know, we don't always have to talk in the mornings. We could just see each other at school." Tsukushi said diplomatically. Tsukasa tried to chew faster, feeling irritated that he had let her stuff so much food into his mouth. He shook his head in response, but Tsukushi barely noticed.

"I am okay with it." Tsukushi said quietly. Tsukasa put his hand on Tsukushi's shoulder as she continued

"And you probably have lots more important things to do in the morning…"

He quickly drank the coffee to help him swallow. As he did, Tsukushi said resolutely, "So it's settled. I won't call you or come over in the morning before school anymore."

She nodded to herself.

As she turned to leave, Tsukasa muttered "Like hell it is, you moron." Tossing the empty coffee cup to the ground, he grabbed her arm and pulled her towards him, his lips coming down on hers. And as he kissed her soundly, and felt her tentatively begin to respond, Tsukasa decided that maybe this day wasn't going to turn out so badly after all.
