Adrianna's POV
I walked into school the next day, my down low. I feared the worst from Momiji after I left the party last night. But really, I shouldn't have been worried about that. You see, something else made my day take a turn for the worst.
Yuki was at school that day. (Bum Bum Bum) You could barely spot him around the huge crowd of followers. I tried to calmly and stealthily sneak around the crowd. I almost had it until he looked up and saw me about to turn the corner.
"Adrianna!" He called. I flinched
"Shit! He saw me." I cursed.(Japan hasn't broken her cursing. Oh well.) Turning halfway I saw him coming towards me on crutches. Dammit. You can't run away from a person on crutches. It's cruel.
"Uh, hi?" I said, looking up at him. He grimaced as he adjusted his crutches as he stopped in front of me.
"Hey. So where are you going?" He asked nervously. Yep, this conversation cannot get anymore awkward.
"Class." I answered, my voice deadpan.(So funny. I can imagine their conversation in my head) He shifted uncomfortably.
"Right. Well, I'll come with you, if that's okay?" He looked right into my eyes and I almost didn't have the heart to say no. Almost.
"But you don't even have your bag. And you have those other people waiting for you. You can't just leave them for me." I said, panicking. Then Kakeru showed up.
"President! President! You forgot your bag. Here you go." He beamed at us as he tried to hand Yuki his bag.
"Kakeru." I groaned quietly. The boys didn't notice as they were trying to figure out the bag situation.
They stood there trying to figure it out for 5 minutes. Yuki couldn't carry it because of the crutches. Kakeru couldn't take it for him because he wasn't in the class and didn't know where it was.
I finally got impatient and just decided to end the conversation.
"I'll take it." I half snarled at the idiots, ripping the bag from Kakeru's grasp.
"What?" Yuki looked at me.
"Well, you wanted to walk with me right? And you obviously can't carry your own bag and I really don't want to be late for class so let's go." I said. Yuki smiled at me and nodded. We said our goodbyes to Kakeru and headed off.
"So you left yesterday..." Yuki said, jumping right on the topic I wanted to avoid.
"Yah." I replied.
"You never told me how you felt. It's okay whatever you feel but I just want to know." He said, becoming more polite by the minute. It was kind of annoying how he holed himself up in his shell.
I stopped in the middle of an empty hall, to collect my thoughts. (There sure seem to be a lot of those in this. I wonder why.) Yuki continued until he figured out I wasn't walking next to him and turned around.
"What I want? It's about time someone asked me what I want. I want us to go back before you said those words and I don't want to. I want us to be friends and I want us to be so much more than that." Yuki had come closer and was getting closer with every word I said.
"I'm so confused about how I feel about you, Yuki." I closed my eyes. His hand traced my face and I could feel his breath faintly on my face.(Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!)
"What I don't want is the kind of relationship we have now. All awkward and nervous and weird. It's not right. Just... Give me some time to figure it out but I can't do this. Not right now." I struggled to take a few steps back and look at him. His face was a mixture of understanding and hurt.(Yes! Way to go girl!)
"Okay." He turned and headed towards the classroom. I smiled after him and ran to catch up.
AN: So... not my longest chapter. Anyway, tell me what you think about this one and I need your help. I need some fun friend things Yuki and Adri should do together because I am a blank. So review and tell me your idea. If I like it I'll use it. So yay!
