Hobey-ho! And so I go!
______________________________________________________________________________
"NADDY-CHA--" Yaya (who we all know is Yoyo) stopped her greeting when Nadeshiko entered the Garden House. Yaya looked at Nadeshiko. It looked like she didn't get much sleep last night. Or if possible, any sleep last night. "N-Naddy-chan, are you alright?" Yaya had asked, concerned. Nadeshiko looked at Yaya. Her hair was slightly messy and was held by a red headband. Her tie was loose, her black sweater all crumpled up, and her blouse was unbuttoned. Her skirt was slightly wrinkly, and her tall, brown boots were un-tied.
"I'm fine....I just didn't get much sleep." Nadeshiko replied. Yaya frowned at Nadeshiko.
Or any sleep. "My Naddy-chan looks all messy! What happened!?" Yaya questioned.
"Nothing." Was Nadeshiko's reply. The doors to the Garden House opened again. In came the two lover boys. The brunette and the blonde. Tadase and Kuukai's clothes were in worst shape than Nadeshiko.
Tadase's hair was a little out of place while Kuukai's was messier than usual. Tadase's blouse's first two buttons were unbuttoned and Kuukai's was unbuttoned all the way. Kuukai's wore his black sweater around his waist and Tadase's was on his shoulders. You could tell Tadase's black slacks weren't ironed. Kuukai just wore large jeans. Only Kuukai's sneakers were un-tied.
Kuukai had bags under his eyes.
Tadase's face seemed redder than usual.
"Yello you two!" Yaya cheered. The two boys ignored her and looked straight at Nadeshiko. Nadeshiko could feel their eyes on her back and she slowly walked to her vice president seat.
I...don't want to be here right now...Nadeshiko thought while chewing on her bottom lip. She felt uncomfortable. There they were. The two boys who loved her. Staring at her.
"Okay...so..." Yaya started to say. She looked at the atmosphere....excuse me. HE looked at the atmosphere around him. Yoyo glanced at the two boys.
Tadase's face was beet red and he looked lost in lala land. Kuukai on the other hand was glaring daggers at Tadase. Yoyo had to laugh at them. Those two looked so stupid. Yoyo was just about to giggle until he stared at Nadeshiko.
She looked shy and nervous. And looked the most uncomfortable. Her eyes were wide and then she snapped them shut. She brang her hands to her face and covered her eyes. She was biting her lower lip in a vicious way. It almost looked like it was about to bleed. Her body looked like it was shaking a little. A slight blush was fighting to arrive at her cheeks. Right now, Nadeshiko looked like a little lost kid in Yoyo's eyes.
Yoyo who was dressed as Yaya gave Kuukai and Tadase geath glares. They must've done something to Nadeshiko. Yoyo has never seen Nadeshiko like this.
Tadase noticed Nadeshiko not making any eye contact with anyone.
"Nadeshiko? A-are you alright?" he asked her. Nadeshiko met eyes with Tadase. Yellow eyes gazed into his pink eyes.
"C'mon Naddy-chan! Let's go visit Misao-san!" Yoyo said in his girly voice. He didn't let Nadeshiko protest because he was already dragging her out the door.
__________________________________________________________________________________
"Thank you Yaya-chan." Nadeshiko whispered to her friend. Yaya (who is Yoyo) looked up at Nadeshiko and smiled.
"No problem! Are you alright?" Yoyo asked as Yaya. Nadeshiko looked at 'Yaya.'
"A little..." she replied.
"C'mon. Let's go talk with Misao-san during class. You look....terrible." 'Yaya' had said. Nadeshiko nodded her head. Nadeshiko looked into those deep, orange eyes. Their like Yoyo's eyes. Nadeshiko remembered. She lightly blushed as she remembered how charming he was to her the other day.
'Yaya' attached herself to Nadeshiko's left arm and walked to Misao's office.
______________________________________________________________________________
"Why was she like that? Did.....my kiss...do that to her?" Tadase said outloud. Kuukai's ears caught only one word. Kiss. Kuukai glared at Tadase. Hoping he could feel his green eyes burn his pale skin. Kuukai was gritting his teeth together as he clentched his fists.
"Y-you....k-k-k...kissed......her!?" Kuukai spat. Tadase could hear the rage in Kuukai's words. If Kuukai's words were made out of venom....Tadase would probably be in the hospital right now.
Oh...I have....an advantage on him....a lead. Tadase thought, smirking. "Yeah, I did. Why, you didn't?" Tadase asked. Kuukai bit on his bottom lip.
Th-this little bastard! Kuukai thought. Tadase was slightly enjoying this moment. He could see as plain as light, the jealousy Kuukai held in his eyes. Rage wanted to take over Kuukai. Kuukai wanted his rage to consume him. But he couldn't let his rage consume him infront of Tadase. That would be showing weakness. And Kuukai could never, EVER let his opponents see his weakness.
"They were really soft." Tadase said in a dreamy way.
I already know that!!! Kuukai thought.
"Her skin was soft." Tadase grinned at Kuukai.
I already know that!!! Kuukai thought to himself.
"They tasted like.....strawberries." Tadase was now smirking. He loved having power.
I know that already!!! Kuukai's thoughts screamed all around, inside his head.
"And when I held her, it's like her body was made to be fit inside my arms." Tadase dumped all of this.....information.....onto Kuukai.
I already know that....you little.....lousy.... Kuukai had to hold his composure. Oh, was Tadase really enjoying this.
"And her hand is the most softest in the world. And are small. It's cute." Tadase's smirker wider.
"I already know all this..." Kuukai said. Tadase stopped smirking. Had he heard Kuukai right?
"Wha-what are you talking about?" Tadase asked. How could Kuukai know how it felt to have Nadeshiko's lips pressed against your own!? How could Kuukai have tasted the best strawberries in the world!? How could Kuukai have known how it felt to hold Nadeshiko in your arms? How could Kuukai have known how soft and small her hand is!? Tadase looked at Kuukai. His green eyes weren't filled with jealousy anymore.
It was filled with revenge.
Telling this little bastard everything me and Nadeshiko did is gonna be fun. Kuukai thought as he was the one smirking. Kuukai walked to his Secretary seat and sat down with his feet on the white, clean table and hands behind his head.
"Let's chat, why don't we......President?"
__________________________________________________________________________________
Yoyo gaped at Nadeshiko. Had he heard her story correctly? Nadeshiko smiled at her friend, sitting on Misao's moving, comfy chair.
"Don't worry." Misao said as she sat on her desk. She took her glasses off and smiled at Yoyo, thinking he was Yaya. "I was suprised too. Not only does she love basketball, but she dressed like a boy too. Don't be suprised if you see her in boy clothes." Misao said.
"Anyways, Misao, did you get the attendance sheets?" Nadeshiko asked the twenty-three year old nurse. Misao smiled at Nadeshiko as she fixed her nurse coat.
"Yeah...not hard. The attendance office is close to my office. Kids usually pass by. I'll be able to get your....attendences. So, no worries, aye?" Misao smiled and Nadeshiko returned her a smile. Nadeshiko then turned to face her friend,
"Yaya-chan, you won't tell anyone, right?" Nadeshiko asked. Yoyo looked at Nadeshiko and smiled.
"Of course I won't!" he said in his cheery, girly voice. "But....you really like basketball?" he asked. Nadeshiko only nodded her head.
"I do. I'm good at it too." she said. Misao sighed.
"I still can't believe it. I never met a girl who loved basketball as much as you." Misao commented. Nadeshiko only smiled.
Nadeshiko was liking this....'girls only' conversation. Yoyo was just staring at Nadeshiko.
He probably could relate to her and her secret. More than anybody in the school, actually. How it felt to hide your real gender. Worried that if everyone found out, you would feel shunned, isolated. How hard it could be to keep two different personalities. Sometimes when you slipped a little information when you weren't suppose to know, it was hard to cover it up. Difficult, even. And you just had to lie so constantly. Yes, Yoyo could relate to Nadeshiko's secret very well.
"And your trying for the basketball team, right Nadeshiko?" Misao asked. Yoyo looked at Misao.
"Yeah..." Was Nadeshiko's reply. "The tryouts are soon....I know I'll make it." Nadeshiko said in a confident tone. Yoyo was glad to see Nadeshiko in a happy mood. It sure beat the way she was acting in the Garden House. Nadeshiko was talking all about basketball to 'Yaya' and Misao.
Yoyo couldn't believe that Nadeshiko knew so much about basketball. She knew more than he did. Nadeshiko had nothing but smiles on her face when she mentioned basketball. Which made Yoyo wonder why she wasn't smiling in the Garden House. It had to be those two idiots. Yoyo thought.
Misao was suprised to hear Nadeshiko's secret. Especially the part when she mentioned she always played basketball with Kuukai. That she had been friends with him for nine years now. Even if he didn't know it. That made Misao a little worried about Tadase's feelings for Nadeshiko. The day Nadeshiko called her, Misao could hear the care in her voice. All the.....love.....Nadeshiko held in her voice.
Hopefully, Nadeshiko would only see Kuukai as a friend.
______________________________________________________________________________
Tadase didn't speak. He was trying to process everything in his head. What Kuukai had said to Tadase, was it all true? Tadase forced himslef to look at Kuukai. He could tell that Kuukai enjoyed making him suffer. By now, Tadase's hands were shaking a little bit. He didn't want to believe Kuukai. That, Kuukai was the first one to kiss Nadeshiko. The time he wrapped his arms around her. That Kuukai also held her hand.
"I....don't believe you." Tadase said. He could hear his own voice crack as it grew weak. Tadase's heart was cracking. "...I....will....not....ever.....ever....give Nadeshiko up to you."
Kuukai just scoffed. Was Tadase's little statement suppose to make Kuukai fall to the ground and cry his eyes out?
"You.....little.......bastard." Kuukai heard Tadase whisper. Kuukai got up from the table.
Now. Kuukai was furious. No one called him a bastard to his face.
Tadase looked up just to see a fist land straight on his face.
______________________________________________________________________________
Nadeshiko looked down at Yaya. "What?" she asked.
"Did Tada-chan and Souma-kun hurt you? Are your feelings hurt?" 'Yaya' asked Nadeshiko. Nadeshiko was quiet for a few seconds. Yaya already knew her secret, so it was okay to tell her that they both loved her, right?
"Not really Yaya-chan. You already know how much I love basketball, right?" Nadeshiko asked. 'Yaya' nodded her head.
That seems to be the thing you love most in this world. 'Yaya' thought to herself.
"Yesterday, on Halloween night, when I was Nagihiko, Kuukai had told me that he loved me. W-wait. He told Nagihiko that he loved me. Even though I am Nagihiko." Nadeshiko said. 'Yaya' nodded her head.
"How do you feel?" 'Yaya' asked. Nadeshiko's cheeks turned pink while she shrugged her shoulders.
"I-I'm not sure. A-and earlier that same day, Tadase also told me that he loved me." Nadeshiko explained.
Ouch... 'Yaya' thought. Two guys confessing their love to a girl on the same day? Poor girl must be very confused.
"A-also....Tadase...he...um..he..." Nadeshiko hesitated. "He...kissed me yesterday. O-on m-my lips." Nadeshiko blushed as she remembered how Tadase kissed her and when he held her for a few moments. Nadeshiko also remembered the times Kuukai had walked her home.
Twice. When he had his arms around her walking her home. And before she entered her house, he grabbed her and held her tight. A side of Kuukai Nadeshiko had never seen before.
"Say wha?" Yoyo said in his 'Yaya' voice. Tadase kissed her yesterday? "Tada-chan did wha--?"
"H-he stole my first kiss." Nadeshiko stuttered.
No he didn't. Yoyo thought. Souma-kun stole your first kiss. Yoyo thought to himself. Should he tell her that? That when Nadeshiko was asleep, Kuukai stole her first kiss? Or would that only make Nadehsiko even more confused? Then....what about my feelings? Yoyo shook his head. He shouldn't be thinking that. He was on Kuukai's side. Or, was he? Yoyo shook his head again.
"D-did you like that....Tada-chan kissed you?" Yaya aske looking down at the floor. Nadeshiko traced back to the time Tadase kissed her.
"Truth be told, I...don't really know." Nadeshiko replied.
"Oh...I see. So....since you and Kuukai have been friends forever....kinda'....don't you like Kuukai a wee bit more?" Yoyo asked in his Yaya voice. There, that was what Yoyo should be doing. What about my feelings? Yoyo thought to himself again. He really shouldn't be thinking this. Not when he was Yaya.
"I don't that either." Nadeshiko replied. She's known him for a long time. And all Nadeshiko ever saw in Kuukai was a great friend. "Well....I think....he's only a friend. That's all I see him as." Nadeshiko said.
Uh-oh....Souma-kun. Yoyo thought. Things weren't working out for him right now. Yoyo had to think of something. Suddenly, a sentence popped into his head. "Do you, Nadeshiko only see Kuukai as a friend, or is it Nagihiko that only see's Kuukai as a friend?" asked Yoyo.
Nadeshiko let that thought ponder around in her head some more. That's right. Nagihiko only saw Kuukai as a friend. What did Nadeshiko see Kuukai as?
But I am...Nagihiko. Nadeshiko thought. So, if Nagihiko only saw Kuukai as a friend, shouldn't Nadeshiko see Kuukai only as a friend too? But his hug the other day...Nadeshiko started to think.
"--SSHOLE!!!" Nadeshiko and Yoyo heard Kuukai's voice coming from the Garden House. Yoyo's mood changed. They weren't....fighting over her? As in literally, fighting over her, were they? Yoyo dashed to the Garden House, leaving Nadeshiko behind.
Yoyo slammed open the doors.
"What...in the.......BLUE HELL.....are....you two.....IDIOTS DOING!?" he screamed as Yaya. He found that Kuukai had a little bruise on his cheek and Tadase had bruises on each side of his cheeks. Kuukai's bruise looked like it would heal any second now though. And Tadase's was being held around his collar by Kuukai.
The two boys looked at the girl infront of them. Just when things were getting good for Kuukai!
"Yaya-chan?" The three Student Council memebers turned their head around. Kuukai immediantly let go of Tadase and Tadase stummbled a little. Yoyo was thinking quick. He didn't want Nadeshiko to see these two guys fighting over her. She might just blame all their bruises on herself.
He knew that feeling. The life of a women is such a complicated road.
Nadeshiko walked into the Garden House. She didn't see that white table turned upside down. She didn't see Kuukai and Tadase's faces being a little bruised. All Nadeshiko saw was closed eyes as she was pushed to the floor.
All Nadeshiko felt was lips being pressed against her own. Tadase's face went red. Kuukai gaped at the scene infront of him. What...was Yuiki Yaya doing?
Was she.....kissing Nadeshiko?
'Yaya' let go of Nadeshiko. Nadeshiko's heart was racing. What....just happened?
"Y-y-y-y-yaya....ch-chan!?" Nadeshiko stuttered as she covered her lips with hands. Never has Nadeshiko been more confused. Tadase and Kuukai stared in shock as thet looked at the cheery fifteen year old girl.
What the hell just happened?
Nadeshiko stared up at her friend. Yaya stood up and looked down at Nadeshiko with caring eyes as she grabbed a cap from behind her (....don't know where she got her cap from).
Everyone recognized that cap. Black with red grafiti letters that said BadBoi.
Tadase recognized that cap from the plaza when he and Nadeshiko went for a date.
"Yo." she said. Or, he said.
Kuukai recognized that voice. It was the dude who bumped into him when he was at the plaza, watching over Nadeshiko when she had the date with Tadase.
Nadeshiko knew who this person was. She couldn't believe it. That Yuiki Yaya has always been...
"Yello, you two.....boys." 'Yaya' said in her real voice. A guy voice. A suprisingly deep voice. "My real name is Yoyo."
Yuiki Yaya was not a girl. All this time she was a guy. And not just any guy.
"Yuiki Yoyo." Yoyo said. "And I'm gonna be your new treasurer." Yoyo introduced himself as.
Everyone stared in shock at this.....crossdresser.
Yaya wasn't going to be coming to school anymore. Yoyo was gonna take over.
______________________________________________________________________________
Nadeshiko couldn't believe it. Yaya was a guy the whole time!? But, he was so.....girly. Nadeshiko was thinking to herself. Yaya wasn't just any guy. Oh no. She was Yoyo. Nadeshiko was kissed by Yoyo. At the park, he kissed her on her forehead. And today, he kissed her on her lips! And, on her date with Tadase, he kissed her on her cheek, andd yesterday, he kissed her on her lips! Nadeshiko blushed.
I only love basketball. I only love basketball. Only basketball. Nadeshiko tried convincing herself. It didn't work. Her next thought was:
Why is everyone kissing me!? Nadeshiko had to stay calm. She really needed to talk to Misao about this. She'd know what to do, right? The bell rang and Nadeshiko went to go rush to change into Nagihiko in Misao's office.
"Misao!" Nadeshiko said. Misao wasn't in her office. Nadeshiko was glancing around. No one was here. "....I thought Misao would be here." Nadeshiko thought. She took the chance to go change into Nagihiko. As she was changing into the boys uniform Misao left in her desk, adehsiko couldn't help but think about Yoyo.
He didn't like her, did he? Then, why did he kiss her? "Yoyo-chan." Nadeshiko said. "What was that kiss for?"
______________________________________________________________________________
Kuukai stepped into class after having a talk with the principle again. Not only did she lecture him again, she found out that he was the one who egged her house. Kuukai laughed as he remembered last night. While he was throwing the eggs, Nagihiko was decorating her trees. Kuukai pictured Nagihiko's face in his head. When he saw Nagihiko laugh, he couldn't help but hear a girl laughing.
Nagihiko was laughing in a girly voice. Kind of. And when Nagihiko was laughing, he looked like Nadeshiko. Sometimes in Student Council meetings, Kuukai would turn his head away from Nadeshiko when she was laughing. Truth be told, her laugh was cute. She would always laugh at Yaya and her--
Yaya. Kuukai thought. No, Yoyo. Kuukai seemed to have a new rival. Not only Hotori Tadase, but now Yuiki Yoyo. Kuukai still couldn't believe that she was really a he. How can that happen? Yaya was always the silly, girly one. And it seemed that Yaya kind of wanted Kuukai to be with Nadeshiko. She helped him a little, right?
But then that kiss. Yes, that kiss. Yoyo had kissed Nadeshiko. Sure he was shocked. Okay, he was very flabbergasted when Yoyo kissed Nadeshiko. He felt his body numb when he remembered Nadeshiko and Yoyo at the park. When Yoyo kissed her forehead, she blushed. Which made Kuukai's brain puzzle. Did Nadeshiko like Yoyo? Did she like his kiss? Kuukai kept thinking about this. He wasn't even paying attention to his teacher. His teacher was saying something about a new student.
...
New student?
Kuukai turned his attention to the front of the classroom. A boy with long hair, violet hair was standing infront of everyone. He had yellow eyes, that of a cat. Pale skin. Shorter than most guys. Feminine hands and other features. The boy put on a warm smile.
"I'm Nagihiko. Fujisaki Nagihiko." Introduced the new student. All the girls seemed to have swooned over him. Some sighing outloud. A few even let a kyaa escape their lips.
Always having a way with the ladies. Was Kuukai's thought. Until he saw the boys. Some were blushing! And...the men? Kuukai snickered. All the boys must have thought Nagihiko looked Nadeshiko. Which, he did.
"I am the twin of Nadeshiko. Please take care of me." Nagihiko said. Girls in the classroom sighed again.
Kita Yada took interest in the guy. So this is the guy, huh? He thought. Yada looked at Nagihiko closley. This guy looked to girly. The other boys from the soccer team who talked with Kuukai and Yada the other day seemed to be thinking the same thing.
Nagihiko was too girly. Even though he resembled Nadeshiko well, very well, he didn't look like he could play basketball. Someone as girly as he couldn't play basketball. It would be like a girl playing basketball.
And girl's don't play basketball. Boys from the soccer team in the classroom sneered at Nagihiko. Was this the guy Kuukai was really talking about?
Nadeshiko who was dressed as Nagihiko caught a few boys sneering at him.
"Are you good at basketball?" a boy with heterochromia (different colored eyes)and red hair asked. Kita Yada.
Nadeshiko turned to her confident side.
"Good, I'm the best." Nadeshiko replied to Yada disguising her voice. Yada bore into Nagihiko's reply. This guy had attitude.
"That's nice..." was Yada's reply.
"Oi! How come we didn't know that Fujisaki had a twin!?" asked a green haired boy. Kuwara Toji. Everyone except Kuukai and a few people from the soccer team wanted to know aswell.
"Now, now." Said the teacher, calming her class down. "Fujisaki." The teacher said in a sweet way. "Would you like to tell us somethings about yourself?"
"Sure. I've never lost in basketball and my twin is Nadeshiko. Please don't bother her with that fact. She's very confused right now." Nadeshiko said in an honest way.
Does he know? Kuukai thought. Does he know about Yoyo and Nadeshiko? Kuukai speculated. A random girl stood up in the middle of the classroom. She had rosey pink hair and a darker color of yellow eyes.
"Will you marry me!?" she asked Nagihiko in a loud voice. All the others girls started to asked Nagihiko tha same question. Saying why he should marry one of them. Soon, the classroom was in an uproar. Some guys were trying to stop girls from attacking eachother and others were just laughing. Some guys just looked around them, clueless of what to do.
Nadeshiko was bewildered. That one Hinamori girl just asked her to marry her. And then other girls were asking her to marry her.
Kuukai only sighed. He was watching his teacher do a horrible job trying to calm this class down. Kuukai signaled Nagihiko to sit by him. Nadeshiko caught his signal. She tried not to flush as she obeyed. Nadeshiko was Nagihiko right now. Nagihiko doesn't blush at guys. Nagihiko doesn't really blush in general.
"What?" she asked her friend, pretending to be a guy. She had a very good idea what Kuukai was about to say.
"So, how do you like the school right now?" He asked. Nadeshiko laughed.
She knew it.
______________________________________________________________________________
Nadeshiko was walking home. She was glad her mom didn't assign her any dance lessons this week. Nadeshiko sighed as she walked. Days really were getting shorter. Being in Nagihiko's classes were no doubt, much more exciting than her own classes. Nagihiko's classes were better than Nadeshiko's classes, hands down. It took her mind off Yoyo and Tadase for a while. Although, Nadeshiko couldn't help but glance at Kuukai every now and then. When he laughed, he was beaming with happiness. Nadeshiko smiled to herself.
She was then thinking about Yoyo. And Tadase. And thier kiss. Did Yoyo like her? Why did Tadase love her?
Love. Nadeshiko thought. A tanned face with green eyes popped into her head. He was a brunette boy with a grin. And had piercings in his ears. His bangs were split to the right and his hair was messy.
What..am...I...thinking? Nadeshiko thought. She shook her head in a rugged manner. Why did his face pop up?
"H-hey!" Nadeshiko's ears picked up a familiar voice. Was she at the basketball court already? Nadeshiko witnessed older boys picking up on a small, brunette boy. Not just any brunette boy.
Shouta.
Nadeshiko walked towards tha baskeball court. She wasn't gonna stand by the sidelines and watch Shouta get teases. She was going to show these boys a lesson.
In basketball. Even if she was a girl.
______________________________________________________________________________
Kuukai was walking towards the basketball court when he saw Shouta getting teased. By....what looked like to be middle schoolers! They were tall too. Probably on their school's basketball team. What angerd Kuukai was that they were cruel enough to tease a seven year old boy.
"Lousy...little....bitches." Kuukai fumed. He stormed over there until he saw long hair appear. A pale girl with eyes like cats appeared. A high school girl. Who was shorter than those middle schoolers. Her black sweater was tied around her waist and she seemed to be talking to those boys. They laughed at her. Who dared have the audacity to laugh at that beautiful, in-humanly gorgeous girl girl!? Kuukai jogged over there. He could hear what was being said as he got closer.
"--llenge you to a 'lil game. Block me from getting this basketball in the basket. Do that, you can tease this boy. If I just so happen to put this ball in the basket, you'll leave him alone." Kuukai heard Nadeshiko speak.
Was she challenging those group of boys? If she was, she was at a very extreme disadvantage. One girl who was shorter than everyone (besides Shouta) by a good three to five inches versus a bunch of guy at basketball. Around five or seven of them too. They stared at Nadeshiko then mocked her in a teasing way.
"What, you think you're good? Let's play then." said a tall, black haired guy. He had red streaks in his hair and piercing, black eyes. He wore nothing but black. Kuukai took note that they all wore dark colors. Man, their taste in clothes were horrible. Him and his friends burst out in laughter as they picked random spots on the court. Really good random spots.
Kuukai had caught up to the basketball court. He was about to interrupt this little challenge until Shouta stopped him.
"Let's wait and see. Watch, pretty girl will save me." Shouta said. Kuukai didn't want to believe him. But another part of him did. Kuukai wanted to see Nadeshiko in action as she played basketball. He knew she was good. Even though he played against her. Once.
And lost. Kuukai just sat down on the bench to watch her.
Let the games begin.
______________________________________________________________________________
A small group of boys were just walking around.
Complaining.
"...I can't believe I have detention." Yada said. He looked to his friends.
"I can't believe I got detention too." said Toji. He yawned. The four other boys were looking at him in disbelief. "What?" he asked. A black haired boy spoke up. He was in his Seiyo uniform.
"Whatd'ya mean you don't believe you have detention!?" he asked. "This is your one-hundred and seventeenth time you've been told you have detention! Not only that, but you only attended detention class once this whole year." he said. Everyone laughed. Toji scowled at his friend.
"Shut up Toshiro!" said Toji, embarassed. "And stop countin' how many times I go to detention! If I want a stalker, I want a stalker who's a chick! And she's gotta be hot!" Toji exclaimed. Everyone laughed. The boy Toshiro rolled his eyes, mummering something about Toji only falling for fugly chicks. Everyone laughed again.
"Idiots! Just shut the hell up! I'm dyin' here!" laughed a blonde boy. He was tall. The tallest in the group. But he only towered everyone else by two inches. Yada rolled his heterochromia eyes.
"Shut up Kiley." said Yada. The blonde boy's name who happened to be Kiley stopped laughing. He glared at Yada with ice blue eyes. Everyone else started cackle. Another blonde in the group stayed quiet. He had the longest hair in the group. It was tied in a low ponytail and reached the middle of his back. He had silent, meadow green eyes and his was paler than most of the boys in the group. Something caught his attention. He heard a ball bouncing and looked over to see an old basketball court. People were in it.
"Guys." He started to say.
"What's up Akatsuki-kun?" Asked Toji. Akatsuki pointed the basketball court. The group of boys stared at Akatsuki's direction. They were taken back.
"Is that...?" Akatsuki started tosay.
"...our school's....?" Yada stared at the sight infront of him in disbelief.
"....vice presdent...?" Toshiro said in awe.
"....playing basketball......?" Kiley continued the sentence. He couldn't believe what his blue eyes were seeing.
"...with guys...?" Toji whispered.
Were they really seeing a girl playing basketball? Basketball!? And she was going versus tall dudes! The group of boys were spying out the corner of an old brick building.
"She's kicken' their asses." Toji said. Yada was amazed.
"So, I reckon that when Kuukai was talking about a girl being good in basketball, he was talking about our vice president?" Toshiro asked. Yada nodded his head.
"She's really good." Akatsuki complimented in a plain and boring way. Kiley nodded his head. His blonde hair was much messier than Akatsuki's.
They all witnessed Nadeshiko passing all the tall boys on the court with a basketball dribbling in her possesion. The way she moved, it was in a graceful, and yet powerful beat. Toji was moving his head from side to side as he heard the beat of the ball bouncing. There was definately a rhythm when they saw Nadeshiko played.
Yada still couldn't believe it. Nadeshiko was.....amazing.
"Amazing." They all whispered. Their faces started to turn to a crimson color.
"She's still in a mini skirt." Toji said in awe.
"Pervert." Akatsuki said. Toji scowled at Akatsuki's remark.
"I'm not a pervert!" Toji whispered in an upsetting way. Toshiro, Yada, Kiley, and Akatsuki stared at Toji. Was Toji really the one person to be saying he wasn't a pervert?
"I'm a mega pervert!" Toji said in satisfactory. The four other boys rolled their eyes. Had Toji no shame? They quickly redirected their attention to Nadeshiko.
They were dumbfounded at what they saw.
Nadeshiko had jumped high in the air. She jumped very high! Higher than those boys thought possilbe. Even the ones inside the basketball court. They all were stunned. It was like she didn't even jump. Like she had wings and just flown up in the air.
"The hell? Does her shoes have special springs in them or something?" Kiley asked. Toshiro shushed him and looked back at Nadeshiko. He was in an awe state.
Toji was in an awe state looking at Nadeshiko's skirt. "Damn sweater. If only the wind was stronger right now." He said outloud. Akatsuki stomped his foot hard on Toji's foot. "Ow!" He whispered.
"Shut up." Akatsuki demanded.
"Someone likes our vice president." Toji said jumping up and down on his good foot. Akatsuki hid a blush.
"Shut up before you start before you start hopping on your hands." Akatsuki said, looking back at Nadeshiko. Toji only scoffed as he muttered something about I need my feet for basketball tryouts.
Nadeshiko looked like she was falling. It was like those miracle-time-workers. Were the main person slowed down as they would make the most important shot. Nadeshiko shot the ball. It went in easily with a swoosh.
She's good. They all thought.

"Okay. I won. Now leave him alone." Nadeshiko said. The middle schoolers didn't know what to do. Did they just loose to a girl?
"No way!" One of them shouted. This boy had red hair and was wearing all black too. "Another game!" He demanded.
"Shut the hell up and just beat it!" A voice said behind Nadeshiko. She felt her heart skip a beat at the voice. Nadeshiko spun around.
"Kuukai?" She asked as he approached her. Kuukai stood by Nadeshiko's side.
"And what're you gonna do about it!?" Another boy said. He had scarlet hair and wore a black sweater with navy blue jeans.
"I'm gonna beat your ass is what I'll do." Kuukai threatened.
"And who do you think you are!?" The black haired boy with red streaks asked.
"Souma. Souma Kuukai."
All the middle schoolers stepped back. They've heard about him. And his reputation when it came to a fight. And everyone would feel sorry for the losers he would beat to a pummel. No matter how many dudes he faced. The middle schoolers ran for it. They were out of the basketball court in a heartbeat.
"Pretty girl. You were great!" Shouta said as he kissed her cheek. Kuukai frowned. Nadeshiko only giggled.
"That was fun." She said, referring to her win just now.
"I gotta go home now." Shouta said as was about to leave. "Thanks for saving me, again." He thanked.
Nadeshiko only smiled as she turned to Kuukai. She blushed and her heart suddenly pounded loudly in her chest.
"You were great." Kuukai said, looking at the ground. Nadeshiko's face flushed.
"T-thank you." she replied. Kuukai turned to see Nadeshiko. He was more than amazed when he saw her play. Especially in a mini skirt. Her legs went on for miles.
Oh, God. I''ve been spending too much time with Toji. Kuukai thought. "Can I walk you home again?" He asked her. Nadeshiko looked into Kuukai's green eyes. She could tell her cheeks were bright pink. But that didn't matter.
"Y-yeah." She said. Kuukai reached his hand out and Nadeshiko grabbed it.
Kuukai could feel elcetricity shoot through him as he turned to a crimson color. Nadeshiko smiled at him and he returned her smile with his own.
Kuukai started to walk Nadeshiko home, AGAIN. And a sentence popped into Nadeshiko's head.
"Do you, Nadeshiko only see Kuukai as a friend, or is it Nagihiko that only see's Kuukai as a friend?"
Nadeshiko ignored the fact that it was Yoyo who asked her that.
I don't know... Nadeshiko thought. But....it's obviously something. Nadeshiko decided. She saw Kuukai more as a friend. Nadeshiko saw Kuukai more as a friend. But what did she see him as? Nadeshiko didn't know, but she knew that Kuukai was almost as better than playing basketball.
Just...almost. Nadeshiko thought as he held her hand, their fingers entwined with eachothers. Nadeshiko's hand was all warm.
"Thank you Kuukai." Said Nadeshiko. Kuukai blushed as he looked towards her.
"N-no problem." He said as he turned the other way. Both brunettes were secretly happy at the moment they shared under the sunset. Walking on the sidewalk.
One knowing why he was happy. The other knowng that she was just happy, even if she was clueless as to why.
B-bmp, b-bmp, b-bmp, b-bmp, b-bmp, b-bmp, b-bmp...

"She's amazing!" Kiley said after Nadeshiko won. Toshiro nodded his head.
"Yeah..." He said in admiration. Akatsuki stayed quiet until he saw a boy come by Nadeshiko.
"Kuukai?" Yada asked out of the blue. The five boys looked. It was Kuukai. What was he doing? He seemed to be talking to the taller kids. They suddenly ran for it and they passed the group of high school boys.
"It's Souma!" They said as they passed by. Kiley, Yada, Toshiro, Akatsuki, and Toji shuddered at the thought. Those cowards might have angered Kuukai. No one who's heard of him dared try to anger him. Kiley could remember as clear as day when he saw Kuukai get in a fight with a fifth grader bully. Kuukai sent that kid to an ambulance.
And Kuukai was only in first grade at the time!
Everyone shuddered again.
The next thing the high school boys saw was a little kid kiss Nadesiko on her cheek.
Yada was the only one who awed at the sight. Everyone else glared at the little boy. Yada noticed his friends reactions.
"Jealousy is a very bad thing, dudes." Yada said. Toji, Kiley, Akatsuki, and Toshiro rolled their eyes.
"Whatever!" They complained. Yada rolled his eyes.
Ladies... He thought to himself. They looked at Nadeshiko and Kuukai.
"Wait..." Toshiro said.
"Is Kuukai.....blushing?" Toji asked. Kiley noticed Kuukai's blush too. Akatsuki just looked ahead. Toshiro glared at Kuukai. Oh, if only looks could kill!
"He can't blush!" Toshiro said.
"He is though." Yada said in a amused tone.
"Oh hell no." Kiley said as Kuukai grabbed her hand. Toshiro stiffened and Toji froze.
"B-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-b-but I thought he hated her!" Toji shouted.
"I think he loves her." Akatsuki said.
"Woah.....loves a strong word Akatsuki-kun." Yada said.
"I'm pretty sure he does." Akatsuki said. Now Yada was getting jealous.
"But....maybe he's playing around." Yada suggested.
"Hey, have you ever seen Kuukai hold a girl's hand?" Kiley asked.
"No." Was everyone's reply. They all looked at Kuukai. Yada could hear himself growling.
"And I thought you said, jealousy is a very bad thing." Toji said, mimiking Yada's voice. Yada stomped on Toji's good foot. "Ow!" Toji whined. "You....bitch." He whispered.
"Shut up!" Toshiro barked. They all just gazed at Kuukai.
"Kuukai's one lucky bastard." Kiley said. "Imma' go home and sulk in a corner." Kiley said as he started for home. Akatsuki just left. Toji looked at Akatsuki.
"I think Akatsuki likes Nadeshiko too." Toji said.
"Vice president...." Toshiro said. "That damn, lucky Kuukai."
"Profanity Toshiro." Yada said. Toshiro just walked home.
"And I really thought he hated Fujisaki-san." Yada said. Toji watched them leave the basketball court.
"He's so lucky." Toji said. Yada just sighed.
"Ima' go home." He said. Toji just nodded as he headed for home too.
Meet the five best friends who also happened to like Nadeshiko. Only to find out that their friend Kuukai who was suppose to hate her, might actually, really like her.
I don't stand a chance against that murderous Kuukai. They all thought.
______________________________________________________________________________
I'm finally done. At first, I wanted to stop it at the heart beat part, but I just had to add these five guys.
I apologized that it took so long. I hoped you liked it. It's just hard to write when you find out that someone you care about had a heart attack and is in an emergancy room. And all you can do is wait.
Sigh.
I promise to update soon. Did you like this chapter? Sorry if it was boring. But, I'm in a mess right now. However, I promise to update very soon.
No, I did not die. And yes I will continue writing this fic. Sneak peek.....whoopie.
"Yeah, Nadeshiko is confused. I mean, she told me about that Yoyo guy, and how that Tadase dude stole her first kiss." Nadeshiko said, preending to be Nagihiko.
"Say, wha--?" Kuukai asked. Nadeshiko tried not to blush as Nagihiko.
"Y-yeah. That Yoyo du--"
"No, after that." Kuukai said.
"Tadase stole her first kiss?" Nadeshiko asked. Kuukai dropped the stack of papers he had in his arms onto the desk.
I knew it. Kuukai thought. She thinks that he stole her first kiss. Kuukai's face expression turned into an angry one.
Nadeshiko gave a worried expression to Kuukai.
"Are you alright?" Nadeshiko asked disguising her voice. Nadeshiko hated to see Kuukai in an upset manner.
"Tadase didn't steal Nadeshiko's first kiss!" Kuukai yelled. Nadeshiko gave a questioning look to Kuukai.
"Wha--?"
"Tadase didn't steal Nadeshiko's first kiss! I DID!!!" Kuukai yelled. His yell filled the empty classroom and it seemed to echo. Nadeshiko's eyes were wide.
Uh...say wha?
I'll stop it there. It might change.
Hobey-ho. I'll just go.
