Welp, procrastination sure overwhelmed me. I would also like to apologize for that.

It seems like the 10th chapter special was finally finished, I did my best to carefully corporate the characters in this one, you could say I did my best.

I honestly hope you enjoy this because after this, A Baka's Love Story is going to take a break for a while. I've decided to do this so I can begin to write other stories, although A Masochist's Love Story is still not going to start until it's original set due date.

I'll give you more info after you read this chapter, you'll see more at the bottom of this chapter.

Okay, on with the story.

-~Chapter X~-

Regretting For Falling

~Minami~

Soon enough, Mizuki-chan and I were headed for shopping after school. Also, our fellow classmates whom we asked came along, Kirishima-san and Kudō-san. I thought it would be nice, just us girls. I guess boys can get too silly sometimes. Doesn't everyone need a break?

I was too busy thinking to notice Mizuki-chan asking me a question, then she nudged me.

I realized that we were on the train, I uh, I should stop spacing out.

Mizuki-chan asked again, "Minami-chan, where exactly do you want to go shopping? We've all been debating."

Our green haired, humorous classmate spoke up, "Well, I haaaaaave heard of this nice new store that sells all kinds of dresses at a…decent price I guess. Ahaha."

Kirishima-san gave a smirk and spoke, "Well Kudō-chan, we aren't exactly flowing out money. I'm sure we could -barely- pass off with decent prices."

Kudō-san let out a disappointed groan. Mizuki-chan just giggled at their interaction, "We'll barely close to the market anyway, let's catch up on other things."

And just like that, Kudō-san's eyes lit up, "Ooooooh! Let's talk about boys!"

My heart gave a large clench inside my chest. That was the last thing I wanted to talk about, I'll try to avoid my…story on this matter.

Kirishima-san again spoke out, "I have nothing to exploit on. Yūji will always be mine."

Mizuki-chan's eyes and mine met, we gave each other an uncomfortable look. I didn't even have to think to myself why. Because it's so obvious.

We both have feelings for the same guy.

Kudō-san noticed this, "Oh, is there something going on? You both have boy troubles?"

Mizuki-chan was brave enough to respond, "I guess you could say that we kind of have the same boy trouble…" She finishes with a nervous laugh.

The girl with green hair began to feel the awkwardness, "Oh…well. Is it something you both want to talk about it?"

Mizuki-chan and I gave each other another awkward look. I never really wanted to talk to her about it, the last time we ever mentioned it is when we decided that our race began.

"So my feelings for Kōta-chan are out of the question?" Kudō-san's voice sounded sarcastic, but we knew what she meant.

We all stared at her with surprise, though, we couldn't say we didn't see it coming. Just surprised that she admits to having feelings for a die-heart pervert.

Mizuki-chan couldn't help but break the silence, "Awh! That's so nice Kudō-san! We wish you the best of luck."

I couldn't help but laugh though, "You sure? He's one hell of a pervert! Although…I guess there's more to him than that."

"This should work out under the circumstances," Kirishima-san stated, "If other people don't get in the way. Though, you won't have to worry."

Kudō-san just kept blushing, which we don't see too often. "W-well, what's up with you two? You sure you don't want to talk about it?"

I started to feel uneasy again. I honestly wanted to avoid this at all costs.

I never expected what happened next to…happen.

"I'm sure it's fine that we're both in love with Akihisa-kun, right? I mean, we're friends and rivals. We have more than one bond, Minami-chan."

She smiled at me with a "reassuring" smile.

"You have a better chance, Mizuki-chan. I don't exactly express my feelings too well. I'm too aggressive, I'm sure he's always scared when he's around me."

Mizuki-chan acted surprised, "Awh, this is no fun! I can't have my rival giving up. You put yourself down too much, you're better than that, Minami-chan."

I felt more and more uneasy with every word I kept blurting out without thinking.

"He's always kind, to everyone. He was even the first one to be nice to me when I first came here, yet I was still so mean to him. I tried to be better, but…it's who I am."

I'm sure Kirishima-san and Kudō-san felt intrigued on how this conversation went, this is a long train ride.

Mizuki-chan responded, "Minami-chan, please don't worry over it. If you really want to know, why don't you just ask him?"

I started to lose little control over my emotions, "And do what? Stand there and wait to get rejected?! He barely noticed and called me pretty only just today! He's done more for you, cared for you more, he even gave it his all to get you out of Class F! He must love you! He has to! You're the one that deserves him!"

I'm standing up by the end of my ranting, I can't think when I'm thinking about him.

Mizuki-chan stood up too, "Yes, and maybe I've fallen in love with him for that! Still, you never know! He could love you instead! Sure, I won't give up, but I'm not going to have this race rigged from the start!"

I lose more control by the second, "Rigged? Rigged?! Of course it was! Look at you! You're perfect! Beautiful, smart, kind! You are perfect, just freaking perfect! Of course he would go for you! Me? There's a reason why I'm in Class F and it's not just because of my flat chest! I can't do anything right for him! I practically embarrassed myself when I thought he and I were dating and went off recklessly and stole his first kiss! I'm selfish!"

Kirishima-san stood up also. "Shimada-san, I please suggest the both of you calm dow-"

"No," I'm practically screaming now, "I will not calm down! I'm a stupid, spoiled brat for fell hopelessly in love with an idiot! What would I even be good for anyway?! He can even cook better than I can! He's only nice to me because he's nice to everyone! I don't get why I tagged along in his friend circle anyway, what am I to him? A tom boy? A guy friend? I'm not even a girl to him! It's obvious that he would love Mizuki-chan! They're perfect for each other! I should just stay away, maybe he would be happier and have less injuries!"

Mizuki-chan spoke, "M-Minami-chan…Please…Give yourself a chance! Don't you trust your feelings?"

"I love him, I do! I love him with all my heart! I love him like crazy! I can't sleep at night because I'm too busy thinking about him! All I do when I sleep is dream about –him-! I am hopelessly, unconditionally, head over heels in love with Aki…But I'm just a teenage girl! What would I know?!"

Mizuki-chan couldn't form words. I feel like a horrible person at this very moment. I wanted to leave, but my emotions aren't done yet.

"HE DOESN'T LOVE ME, MIZUKI-CHAN. SO WHY SHOULD I CARE?" There it is, I'm letting my emotions get ahead of me. I realized that when tears ran down my face.

The train stopped at the station. I stood there crying with three of my friends staring at me with shock. No, not shock, pity. I see pity from them.

This made me more angry.

The doors open, I hastily turn around to walk away but stop at the doorway. I turn around to give Mizuki-chan one last glimpse of how terrible I look right now,

"Make him happy, Mizuki-chan. Please? I should just go away and not bother the both of you."

I walk out, the door closes and continues to head towards our original destination.

I can't believe this ended like this.

I'm a stupid teenage girl, acting stupid over a teenage boy. I'm ridiculous. I'm not sure if I can face them anytime soon. I…I want to go home, I need to get home…My sister is waiting for me.

I continued to walk, until I heard my phone ring.

I prayed that it wasn't Mizuki-chan, but to my surprise, it was my…father?

I answered without hesitation, "Hello?"

"Darling, it's me your father. Are you home?"

"Uh, I-I'm walking home, dad. It's nice to hear your voice. How are you doing? Wait, why are you calling?"

"I was hoping you were at home so I could also talk to your sister but I need to ask you this now."

"A-ask me what, dad?"

"Minami, would you like to come back to Germany?"

Woo! Man, I wonder. Is this the most serious this story has ever gotten? Is this the most intense chapter yet? Do you enjoy this story?

Please answer these questions in a review, I would love to hear what you viewers think.

And on that note, I would like to announce that Book One of A Baka's Love Story has ended. Expect Book 2 in some time, and allow me to focus on other stories.

I only hope that my future stories will be better than my first story, I could say I've gotten a lot better. I just need inspiration and motivation to do so. This story could use a break, and it deserves one. Though, I apologize for leaving this story in a cliff hangar. It gives you something to look forward too, correct?

I thank you all, for reading my story. Reviewing, favoring, and following this story, my first story. You've all given me confidence and it will pay off!

So yes, look forward to more stories from Beautified Disaster!

Until next time, my amazing viewers!
