A/N: Took a little while to write this chapter... But on with the story! Some revelations below.

"Do you know how to ride this?" Ranmarou said as they walked up to the garage and showed the revenge-filled girl beside him.

"Sorry, I don't. Why?" She does know how to ride a four-wheeled vehicle though. Ranmarou just smiled at her as he got on the Harley and motioned Sunako to climb up.

As he started the engine, Sunako automatically enveloped her arms on his waist, not wanting to fall down if he suddenly starts the two-wheeled vehicle. "Where are we going?" She asked him. He first put on his helmet as he gave a second one to her and let her wear it. "To our summer house. It's best if I ride my Harley than my car. It's not that far from here. We'll be there in fifteen minutes if we use this." He didn't let her reply anymore as he started sped off. There wasn't much traffic that day so it was pretty easy for them.

"Mr. Takano, you are friends with Ms. Nakahara right?" their homeroom teacher asked.

"Yes sir, why do you ask?" He said, forgetting about the whole situation that took place two days ago.

"Well, didn't you even notice her absence? I was hoping you knew what happened to her. After all, you two are neighbors." Their teacher added. Everyone looked at him. It was the first time they knew that he and Sunako were neighbors. His fan girls started gossiping at the back as well.

"I've been very busy sir… I'll go next door after classes and ask her parents about her. I'll let you know first thing in the morning tomorrow." He assured the teacher, and after that he sat down again. Their classes continued.

His seat was near the window. He just gazed up at the azure sky. It had rained heavily two days ago, but now it was all bright and sunny again. The weather was mocking him. Why did it have to be so damn sunny today when his life had a storm going on? Still, he just hoped Sunako was okay.

"Do your parents know about me?" She said, making it sound as if they have eloped for the first time.

"Nope." He answered quickly. The keys that were bouncing up and down from his belt was finally freed as he got them and opened the door to the house. It was of Victorian style. Sunako had never seen houses like these before. Not in their place. Ranmarou got in and Sunako followed. She sat down on the sofa as Ranmarou went to the kitchen. As he returned, with him were two cans of beer.

"Here." He said, giving her one can as he sat down in front of her.

"Hey," she took the first sip and put it down, "can you tell me the real, and I mean the real reason of why you want to help me?" she said, taking another gulp from the can. Then, Ranmarou uncomfortably shifted from his seat. Sunako noticed this. "I'm sorry, but did I say something wrong?" "No, you didn't. It's just that, I hate that guy as well." She knew what he meant by this. Good, she thought. She now had a partner to exact her revenge with. "Can you tell me the reason? I know you know mine, so there's no reason for me to repeat it." Again, he shifted and put the can of beer on the table.

"He dumped me." For the first time in her life, Sunako's jaw dropped.

"He what?"

"I said he dumped me. That no good loser dumped me." This had to be impossible! Him... gay? She thought to herself.

"Wait... wait! I don't understand! What the hell do you mean by that?"

"Do I really need to tell you about my sexual orientation? Wasn't it obvious from day one? Heavens, Sunako. Not all beautiful, or shall we say, handsome men are straight nowadays. Oh well, I am bisexual anyway. There's nothing wrong with it, right?" He just grinned at her, making her so uncomfortable. This is getting really crazy.

Sunako merely looked at him and couldn't believe what she was hearing. "Fuck... I've had enough surprises." She said to him. He just let out a small laugh and drank his beer again.

"My my, what a feisty mouth you got there for a girl. Well anyway, you should be happy. I can help you with him."

"That's good to hear." She said, ignoring his tease.

Actually, Ranmarou knew something about Kyohei's real feelings towards Sunako. You could say he was playing the matchmaker. He felt that he was in control, but this was all contrary to his and her parent's plans for them. He wanted to play along, but he made sure that everything would fall back into place. He just wanted to see what will happen to these two people.

.::::.

Their classes ended. Kyohei decided to just walk himself home. Thoughts about his family and Sunako ran again and again in his mind. He stopped before the pedestrian lane since he wasn't allowed to walk through yet. Just when the sign finally said okay, he felt a sharp bolt of pain in his head. He fell on his knees as he squeezed his head as if to stop the pain.

"You like her, don't you?" An angry girl said to him. She was fuming, although he could see that she was trying to hold her tears as well.

"What is it with you? Why won't you believe me? I love you and you know it damn well!" He was also fuming now, but she didn't want to hurt her. Because she was telling the truth. He was indeed in love with someone else.

"You liar! You think I don't notice the way you look at her? Or the way you talk about her everytime I bring her up in our conversations? It's a good thing she's never seen you before too."

"What the hell do you mean by that?" He raised his eyebrows. It was true that her bestfriend had never seen him before. But what did she mean by that?

"You don't need to know a thing or two about it. We're through Kyohei Takano! I can't stand seeing someone like you who's already fallen in love with the lastt person I'd expect you to fall in love with!" With that, she left the place. All heads turned to the guy who was left alone in his table. He angrily jabbed the table, as if it was a punching bag. He just payed for their refreshments and left the place himself.

As he got onto his motorcycle, he said to himself, and if only she would hear this right now, "Fine. I don't need a girl who can't understand my feelings anyway. I'm through with you and this is the last straw. I need some space for myself where I can breathe properly." With that, he sped off and then...

"Hey!" He then regained his consciousness upon hearing a high-pitched voice.

"Wha..?" His body was still slumped on the ground. When his vision was finally okay again, a few people surrounded him, and one in particular was really near his face. Who could this red head be?

"Hey, are you okay?" The red headed girl asked. His head rested on her lap.

"I... I'm fine... What happened?" He asked her. The last thing he remembered was that he was about to cross the street.

"Well, I happened to be behind you a couple of minutes ago when you suddenly collapsed. You were saying something, but I wasn't able to make something out of it. You were like having a nightmare of some sort!" The girl explained to him.

"Really? Well... I do remember having a dream..." She helped him stand up.

"Okay people, show's over! You can all go cross the street now! Move! Move!" The people that surrounded them one by one left the scene. Kyohei saw a few books scattered on the ground, thinking that it was probably hers, he picked it all up and handed them to her.

"Thanks," The girl said. Thick books they were, Kyohei thought to himself. She must be going to cram school with all that stuff, "will you be okay to go home on your own now?" She asked again. "Sure... I'll be fine. Thanks again...?" "Noi. Kasahara Noi." She said as she offered him her hands. He shook his hands with hers, "I'm Kyohei. Takano Kyohei." "Well, it's been a pleasure meeting you Kyohei Takano. Although that kind of meeting was nothing like how people meet by normal circumstances. Anyway, I'm having cram school in fifteen minutes. Maybe we'll see each other next time. See you!" She didn't let him say anything as she ran off.

"Weird girl... Well anyway, I'm lucky to have survived a head injury. Who was that girl in my dream anyway? Gah, I'll figure that one out later." Kyohei went back home. The sky started turning gray. Just early that morning it was all sunny, now it seemed like a storm would be up front.

.::::.

"Okay, so this is what you will do." Sunako just listened to Ranmarou intently. Who knew this bisexual guy would be so smart? And on top of that, he hated Kyohei Takano's ass too. It seemed like they were a match made in heaven, but she didn't want to think about that right now. What's important is if this plan of Ranmarou's work, she'll be having the last laugh.
