I waved goodbye to Kaito as he walked off with his brothers. Then, I met my brother who was waiting for me outside on the front steps. I smiled at him, "Hey."
He smiled back, "Hey." And we started to walk home.
"So," I glanced over at him, "I found Kaito's perverted side today."
"Oh really?"
"Yep," I laughed, "He's really funny when he acts like that though. The way you described it scared me a little."
Mikio shrugged, "Meh, I didn't mean to scare you."
"Anyways," I shook my head, "I'm going with Kaito to the dance and all that jazz, but who're you going with."
He blushed, "Um, Aoki Lapis…"
"Aww! You guys seem so cute together!"
"Shut up!"
When I got home, I went to my room and flopped into my cherry-covered beanbag chair. Tomorrow was the dance. I wasn't nervous, but I was definitely thinking about random outcomes. Kaito could say at the last minute that he didn't want to go with me. He could be sick and not show up. Miku could prank me and my dress could be ruined. The thoughts were endless! It was terrible. I didn't understand why I was thinking like that, but I guess I was just used to everything I did getting screwed over in some way.
"I just need to stop," I told myself, "I need to think of the good possible outcomes of this."
So, I started to think of… well, better outcomes. Kaito and I could really hit it off. He could want to keep a steady relationship. I could get to hang out with the gang, and act like the total pervert that I've been hiding inside for so long. Rin and I could make up. I could get to slow dance with Kaito, and screw off with the rest of my friends. Maybe Kaito and I could even be picked for cutest couple! These thoughts were also endless.
I smiled to myself. Then, I began readying everything for the next day. I knew I'd be able to come home after school and get ready, but I also remembered at how horrible I am at remembering where things are. If I forgot something when I was actually getting ready, I'd be screwed and then all those bad outcomes would probably be true!
So, I started gathering things together.
I got my dress and hung it on the empty side of my closet, so that I couldn't loose it in all my other clothes. I grabbed my make up bag and made sure all of the cosmetics I would be using were placed in the front pocket of the case. I put the case on my desk. I then grabbed all of my 'hair care products' and put them in the cabinet in the bathroom.
After I finished all that, I decided to go check up on Mikio really quick.
"Oh, Mikio!" I laughed, practically busting down the door. I looked over at him. He was looking at himself in the mirror, fixing his tie. His suit was light pink.
I giggled, "Well, don't you look amazing."
Mikio blushed a little, "Are you just saying that to be annoying, or do you really mean it?"
"I really mean it."
"Well, thanks," He smiled.
"I bet Lapis will love it," I ruffled his long hair.
He scrunched up his face, "Don't push it."
