School is back to haunt me! Yay . . . So updating will be a little slow now. I'm doing what I can right now, so yeah. I'm going to update a little later. I'm having a hard time on Algebra and all so yeah!
Enjoy!
~Rin POV~
My head was rested on my desk, my arms folded underneath. My hair was half back today with my ribbon keeping it in place. I was trying to block out any bright lights. You see, I didn't sleep well last night. Not only was I too busy studying for that upcoming English language test, but all I could think about for the rest of the night was Len. It's like my mind hated me, and it wanted to piss me off.
"Rin-chan?"
Thinking about Len? What's my problem? Put in the nicest way possible, that's the last thing I want to think of! Of all things to think about on a perfect Thursday night, I thought of Len!
"Rin-chan, you there?"
"H-hah?" I looked up and saw Rinto in front of me. "R-ri-kun?"
"You okay, Rin-chan? You seem kind of out of it. Did Kagamine do something to you!?" he said, giving off a look that could kill.
"It wasn't Len, Ri-kun. I'm just really tired from lack of sleep."
"Oh." His face lightened up a little. "Make sure to sleep well tonight."
"Okay, thanks, Ri-kun," I said, smiling a little at him.
"No problem. Just try to rest your eye for a little."
I nodded and rested my head again, blocking the bright light.
It didn't happen before. Why does Len have such an impact on me now?
~Len POV~
I entered the classroom and the first thing I saw was Rin with her head down. I suddenly got a little worried about her and quickly walked toward her. But of course, I was stopped by the ever protective Rinto.
"Stop right there, Kagamine," he said. "Rin-chan's a bit tired right now. Just let her have her peace and quiet."
"Who can have peace and quiet here?" This classroom is way too loud!
"She has her headphones right now, so she's pretty peaceful."
I looked over to Rin, to see that it was true. Even though I couldn't see her face, I could tell she was pretty serene. I sat down at my seat, smiling at her. It's kinda cute, the way she put her hair and all.
"May I ask why you're looking at Rin-chan like that? It's kind of creeping me out."
I looked back at Rinto, who was giving me a look. I flinched in hope that he didn't think have any wrong ideas. "I-it's just that Rinny looks cute when she's relaxed like that!" I said quickly, waving my hands frantically.
I shouldn't have said that.
He looked at me like he was disgusted at me.
Rin lifted her head drowsily, removing one of her earphones. "What time is it . . .?" she asked, rubbing her eyes.
"The bell will ring soon," I replied with a grin.
"Ah . . . Len-kun . . ." She then made a very angelic and warm smile. "Good morning, Len-kun."
I could already tell that I was blushing to my ears. "Eh?" Did she just say . . . "Rin, did you just call me 'Len-kun'?" I could've sworn that she really did call me that.
"W-way to go, Rin-chan!" Rinto suddenly exclaimed. "Operation: Scare Kagamine Len was a success!" He put his arm around her neck.
"Eh? O-oh, yeah! D-Did I scare you Len?" she said, laughing a bit.
"O-of course you did!" I cried. "You completely freaked me out! I thought you were Ru-chan!"
"Eh . . . Ru-chan . . . Kagene Rui . . ." She looked down at her desk with uneasiness.
"Rin-chan?"
"Oh my god, Rin, I'm so sorry!" I blurted, getting closer to her and putting my hand on her shoulder to comfort her. "I didn't mean to say that! It must sound mean for me to say that I thought you were someone else."
"Oh, it's alri –" Rin turned around, as she was really close to my face. "Gah!" She drew back, resulting in her falling out of her chair.
"Rin-chan!?" Rinto immediately came down to her side, ready to help her. "Are you okay?"
"I'm sorry, Rin!" I cried. What am I doing!?
"I-I'm alright, Ri-kun, L-Len. I'm just a little shaken up, that's all."
Rin . . . isn't really acting the same today. For the last couple of days, she hasn't been acting right. She's been more and more wary of me. And Rinto seems to be stalking my every move.
All I want is for Rin to be alright. Nothing else really matters to me right now.

An Hour after School . . .
I was at my dance practice for Gemini, since Len and I were going to perform it in a concert with all of Crypton's idols. The two of us already had it memorized, but you know practice makes perfect. But I wasn't exactly in the mood for being in a practice room with Len . . . and our choreographer. But Len is Len, and I've already had enough of Len from this morning.
Absentmindedly, I was tying my black wig into a ponytail with a white scrunchie. I was dressed in a maroon t-shirt, a pair of yoga pants, and sneakers.
"Kagene-chan," our choreographer said to me.
"Yes?" I asked, stopping my tying.
He and Len were staring at me. "We're going to start."
"I'm sorry; can you tell me where we're starting again?"
"You'll be starting near the end of the song, where you and Kagamine-kun 'point'."
I nodded, as I walked to Len's side. The choreographer played the music at the end, as Len and I took each other's hand, walked a couple of steps away, and pointed up, as if we were showing each other different constellations and stars. I could see a faint blush on his face. But I did my best to act as if I was amazed by the "stars" above me.
"Good job you two!" he said. "Unfortunately, I have to go a little early, but please feel free to use this room to practice longer."
"Alright, thank you very much," we said, bowing to him.
He nodded as he left the room with a wave.
"A-ah, Ru-chan." I looked over to Len, who looked a little embarrassed.
"Is there something wrong, Len-kun?" I asked with a small voice, since I didn't feel like using my full voice.
"I was wondering . . . i-if you don't mind doing just one more run-through with me."
"Hm . . .? Oh, I don't m-mind really."
He grinned from ear to ear. "O-okay!" He jogged over to the CD player and began the track again. He ran back to his first position, as we started our choreography.
But knowing me, I did everything half-heartedly. I couldn't do anything right today. I was really acting terrible today, and I knew it. The worst part is that I wasn't trying to cover it up and I worried Len and Rinto.
This never happened before, and I know Len's the reason why. All I can think about is Len. When I'm not around him, I wonder what he's doing or what he's thinking about. And when I am with him, my hands will feel all clammy, and I act different. It didn't start out like this, did it? Is this some weird cliché movie or something? Or am I -
"Ack!" I tripped as I was about to do the spin. I felt pain as I hit the floor, especially on my left arm. I'm lucky I used bobby pins on my wig today.
"Ru-chan!?" Len exclaimed, as he came down on one knee, supporting me. "Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"
"I-I'm alright, Len-kun, but thank you for worrying." I sat up on my knees.
"Y-you're not alright at all, Ru-chan!" he cried.
D-did he see through me!?
"You scraped your arm!"
. . .
. . .
. . .
. . . Oh.
I lifted my left arm to see that I truly did scrape my arm. "Ah . . ."
He scrambled towards his bag and brought it back towards me. "Just hold still for a second, Ru-chan." He took out his water bottle and a handkerchief. Wetting it, he began to dab off the blood on my arm.
"D-don't worry about it, Len-kun! I-It's just a scratch."
"I need to worry about it! You can get infected from it if it's not taken care of properly!" He went back into his bag, and shuffled in his bag. "Found it!" He brought out a band aid, unwrapped it, and put it over my wound. "Well, that should do it! I guess we should call it a day. I'll be heading home now, Ru-chan!" Both of us got up, just as I had an epiphany.
I get it now . . .
"See you later!" he said as he exited the room.
I ran my fingers through my wig, sighing.
Everything makes sense.
I smiled a little, as I realized I sorted everything out.
I love him.
That's all I got for now! I'm trying my best. If you don't like this, I'm sorry. I'm working really hard in school and I need to focus really well, so I try my best to avoid getting distracted from homework on school days.
I know it feels like I'm jumping around, and I'm sorry.
Thanks for reading! Give me your input and tell me what you want to happen next!
