Chapter Nine-

Issues

(Rin's POV)

1/8

Dear Diary,

The week at school has FINALLY come to an end.

I cannot even express my joy!

Len seems to be happy too, probably because of what I had done on Friday fff—

You know how I wrote down Len's combination? Well yeah, I used it to my advantage

Who wouldn't?

Boy, did he have a surprise when he opened up his locker!

It basically went like this:

Len: Okay, Rin. Go ahead to class. I need to get something out of my locker.

Me: u-uhm. Can I just wait for you? I still don't know the school very well ..

Len: But you know where 1st period is, it's right down the hall.

Me: Y-yeah… but… uh I just don't feel comfortable going by myself yet.

Len: Okay, hang on then.

..

…

Len: GYAH! RIN!

Well .. Let's just say Len didn't find the whole water balloon idea as funny as Miku and I did. :)

Yeah! It was hysterical! You shoulda seen his face! Haha

I glanced at Miku who had intruded on my Diary and started writing in it with her own sky-blue pen. I shrugged it off and scribbled down my response.

Miku… I don't think a diary can actually … well… SEE!

Well, you know what I mean, so it doesn't really matter! But at lunch though it was kinda … akward with Len there.

It's spelled 'awkward'

Pffft who cares?

… I do…

…

Why are we writing all this down anyway?

… memories?

Hmm… very trueeee!

When are we gonna play Super Smash bros. anyway?

Oh yeah! NOWWWW! I DECLARE WAR!

PS: I call Pikachu!

I call Zelda!

I slammed my pen down on the desk and shut my journal as Miku and I raced to the TV downstairs.

Len stared at us as if we were psycho, which might I add, we are. "What wrong? You guys okay?"

I glared at Len as I grabbed a GameCube controller, "SSBB, now."

"OHHH! I call Pikachu!" Len announced.

"Too late, Rin already called it." Miku grinned, ever since it slipped that Len and I shared the same house, she demanded to come over on Wednesday. And because of that, we ended up playing SSBB. Which resulted in me and Len fighting over our favorite character.

"Where was I when this happened?"

I looked at Len and spoke up, "Umm … where were you a minute ago?"

"Taking care of YOUR cat."

"Well, there you go. That's where you were." I smirked at Len and took my place in front of the couch on the floor.

Len grumbled as he took the remaining controller and sat behind me on the couch.

Miku piped in, "So! What should we do today?"

I thought about it for merely a second before answering, "Brawl and no teams. Set the comp. on level 9 difficulty, time on 10 minutes."

Len piped up behind me, "Wow, Rin. I think I'll enjoy seeing the computer beat you up, as me and Miku have our own fight."

I rolled my eyes and grinned as I placed the cursor over Pikachu, "You're just in a sour mood because you're stuck with Link."

"Am not!"

"Are too!"

"Guys!" Miku cleared her throat as she made all the adjustments, "Where should we battle?"

"Hyrule-"

"Battlefield-"

I whipped around and glared at Len, "HYRULE TEMPLE, LEN!"

"No way! That place is way too big!"

"Well the place you're choosing is too small!"

"No it's not!"

"Yes! And plus, melee stages beat brawl's any day!"

Len shot a glare at me, "You got Pikachu, ATLEAST let me choose the stage!"

"No way! You got Pikachu last time anyway!"

"HOW ABOUT THE GUEST CHOOSES THE STAGE!"

Len and I turned to look at Miku sitting across the room; apparently she just wanted to play. Last time she let us go on for half an hour.

Miku spoke up, "And Rin, you've got that date later tonight, so we don't have enough time to play to begin with."

I sighed in agreement and turned back to face the TV.

Len replied, "You're right… go ahead and choose."

"Alright!" Miku grinned widely as she placed her cursor over the last stage I would ever choose.

"NO!" I tried to speak up in time.

"NO MIKU! ANYTHING BUT THAT STAGE!" Well … at least Len and I agree on something.

We both groaned in annoyance as Miku clicked on Yoshi's Island.

Miku giggled in happiness as Len leaned down to my level and started whispering comments into my ear:

"Wow, do you think she just did this to annoy us? Or does she really likes this?"

I stretched up my neck, while still keeping my eye on the screen, "Maybe a mixture of both? Anyway, how about we tag team on her. I hate this stage."

"Agreed." Len positioned himself back up on the couch as we both started attacking Miku's character, while ignoring the computer.

Me and Len groaned after a long ten minutes of torture on Yoshi's Island.

Who ended up winning?

Miku …

Me and Len were so focused on Miku the entire time that the computer kept killing us.

Somehow Miku ended up winning, along with Captain Falcon in 2nd

And Len and I tied for last.

… ughhh

"Great going," Len said, sarcasm dripping heavily in his voice, "if you hadn't put that computer so high, we would had her."

I grumbled, "Shut up."

All of the sudden, Miku screamed.

"Miku! What's wrong?" Len and I said in synch, but I paid no mind.

"You need to get ready for your date!"

I groaned, "It's not a date."

"Yes it is, even if it's with that idiot brother of mine. Now hurry upstairs and change. I'll be up soon to do your hair!"

I rolled my eyes as I walked up the stairs, "No need to Miku." I entered my room and closed the door behind me.

(Miku's POV)

I quickly started to gather the controllers up, so I could hurry up to where Rin was.

"Don't bother." Len stated from behind.

I turned to face him, "You sure? I mean … I'm a guest here I think it's only right if I cleaned a mess I helped to make."

Len sighed heavily, "That's not what I meant. Don't bother helping Rin. After all, it's just a retarded date. She can do her hair herself."

I felt a grin form on my face, "Ooooo, is little Lenny jealous?"

Len's face instantly paled… jackpot. I decided to further his jealous, in hopes of getting the two together… I mean it's so obvious he likes her!

"Its okay, Len, don't worry. It's not like they'll do anything major. They may kiss once or twice, but nothing serious." Len face flushed even more, if possible and I grinned and turn my back to him, in hopes on concealing my smile.

"K-kiss?"

"Yeah, that is what couples do anyway. And if things go according to plan for my brother, they'll end up a couple by the end of the night."

I wish I could have seen his face when I had said that, because all I heard was him mumble, "I got to finish the dishes. See you later, Miku."

I turned to watch him leave and hid my smile, as I bent back over to finish picking the game up.

(Rin's POV)

The second the doorbell rang, I hurried to put on my makeup and most common accessory, my bow.

When I had finished, I raced down stairs and met up with Mikuo, who in turn smiled at me.

"Len! Miku! See you guys later!"

"Bye, Rin have fun! And Mikuo be nice to my friend!" Miku yelled over the music playing from Yoshi's Story that was currently playing on the Wii.

I looked up at Mikuo and he rolled his eyes sarcastically in response, "Don't worry about me, and worry more about yourself. You know how clumsy you can be when you're alone."

I looked over at Len and smiled at him, "Len! I said bye! It'd be nice for you to respond"

…

No response …

I sighed, "Len."

Len murmured some kind of response, that I was unable to hear.

I decided to try once more, "Goodbye."

Len grunted and continued to face the screen that showed a small Blue Yoshi being carried off to Bowser's Tower.

Miku frowned at the site and turned towards me, "Oh, don't mind him. He just has some issues that he personally needs to work on." I don't know exactly what Miku meant by that, but Len seemed to know. He whipped his head towards Miku and glared at her. She giggled in response to his action, "anyways, be safe Rin."

I nodded and exited the house alongside Mikuo.
