"Where are we?"
"Can we take the blind folds off now?"
"Five minutes." Sendoh said, getting out of the car. Maki helped Saemi out the car, while Fujima helped Kaiyuki.
"Where are we going?" Kaiyuki asked. Saemi was silent.
Sendoh opened a door and they all went inside.
"Surprise!!!"
Their blind folds fell back. Both girls gasped.
"It's your 15th anniversary for being best friends." Maki said, smiling. All their old friends from elementary and junior high were there.
"You shouldn't have." Kaiyuki said.
"Oh, but we did." Sendoh grinned. "For two very special people." He said, raising his glass.
*
"Saemi, wake up!!! Saemi."
"Hmmm." The sleeping red head mumbled, going further into the covers.
"You promised Fujima a date, remember?"
"Did I?" She murmured sleepily, rolling over. "Can't it wait.?"
"No." Her brother lifted her up from the bed and threw her in the air.
"What?!" Saemi gasped, surprised, as Sendoh caught her a second before she would have fell on the floor.
"You baka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"You wouldn't wake up." Sendoh said. His sister glared at him icily.
"Okay, okay. uh, Fujima's here."
"Fine." She sighed. "Five minutes to get ready."
She shook her head to clear it and grabbed the first dress she saw in her closet. Then, she brushed her teeth and washed her face before she went down the stairs.
As soon as she saw Fujima, her jaw dropped. Why the hell was he so good looking these days? She knew he was good looking, but nowadays he was.even more.
'It's the hairstyle.' She thought. 'And because he's not as short anymore.'
He smiled at her and led her to his car with her blood pounding madly in her chest.
'My God.say it isn't so.'
"Where do you want to go?" He asked, turning to her.
"Um, anywhere you like."
"Okay." He grinned. "Let's go to the."
*
Kaiyuki glanced at Kogure as he approached her, Maki and Mitsui.
'Oh, no! Is my hair okay? Do I look stupid? Maki!!!!!!!!' She screamed mentally.
The brown haired guy in front of her heeded her mental thoughts and gave her a thumbs up sign.
"Hey, Kogure." Mitsui greeted.
"Hi." He replied shyly, avoiding Kaiyuki's gaze.
"Aren't you gonna ask her something?" Maki asked, obviously tense.
Kaiyuki tried to look surprised.
"Oh, um, Kaiyuki-chan, I was wondering if." Kogure swallowed nervously. "If, um, you would like to go with me to the Shohoku-Shoyo soph night."
She smiled. 'Yeah! Way to go, Maki!'
"I would love to."
Mitsui looked at the two of them. It suddenly dawned on him why Kogure was asking Kaiyuki to the soph night.
Or why Kogure started daydreaming in the classroom.
Or why Kogure ignored him whenever Kaiyuki was around.
He was in love. With her. Just like Mitsui.
"Uh, gotta go." Mitsui said suddenly, going up to his dorm.
'That's okay, pal. You can have her.'
*
"Woohoo!!!" Saemi screamed happily, as the roller coaster plunged downwards fast.
Fujima laughed beside her. When he heard that she and Rukawa broke up, it signaled a second chance for him to get her. So he asked Sendoh and Maki's help to be Saemi's ideal guy.
And it could be working.
He cocked his head sideways at her. "How about dinner at the Float?"
She just stared at him. "You're kidding!" She said. The Float was only exclusive to 50 members and their friends, and membership was extremely hard to come by.
"Am not." He grinned. "And why don't we invite Kaiyuki and Kogure?"
"Alright!" She replied happily.
Fujima grinned to himself. 'About pushing the right buttons, Maki had said. Like the Kaiyuki shaped one.'
He held her hand as soon as they got off the ride. "You wouldn't want to get lost know, would you?"
To his surprise, she blushed and shook her head.
'Goodbye, Rukawa.' Fujima thought happily. (agh! I'm making him so sadistic.)
*
Kogure glanced at Kaiyuki for the nth time that night. She was perfect, as usual. She had one hand on his forearm, and she was looking for Saemi and the others.
"Can you see them, Kogure-kun? You're much taller than I am." She smiled sweetly at him.
'I can look, but I don't want to see them.' He thought mentally. He kind of liked the idea of them being alone. Together.
"Yuki-chan!" Someone called excitedly. Kogure saw Saemi waving energetically at them with Fujima beside her.
"Saemi-chan!"
The two girls approached each other with big smiles on their faces.
"Wanna dance, Kogure-kun?"
"Sure."
They had fun together and danced the night away.
*
The next day, in school, the Biology teacher paired Kaiyuki and Rukawa up for a major project. He snuck a peek at the photographs she was holding and couldn't help but ask how Saemi was.
"She's fine." Kaiyuki answered coldly. "Now that you're out of her life, she can find someone better than you."
He was taken aback. "She already has a guy."
"She does not. And I hope she says yes to that Fujima Kenji. He's all that you aren't." Kaiyuki replied, frowning.
'Kenji?!' Rukawa thought dubiously.
He reached for the jar the live frogs were hopping around in. "Fujima's not from Ryonan."
"Oh THAT'S why." Kaiyuki snapped. "You believed all those rumors, did you? You thought she cheated on you, did you? Well your mystery guy is SENDOH AKIRA and if that doesn't ring a bell---"
"Ms. Kaiyuki." The teacher said warningly.
Rukawa stared. Kaiyuki was beet red from embarrassment.
"Sendoh Akira?"
"Yes, Sendoh. Who else brings her lunch? Hugs her in public, etc.?"
"But-"
"It was Maki, you moron!!! The brown haired guy was Maki, and puh-lease I do not believe you' re my best friend's ex."
It hit Rukawa like a ton of bricks.
'I broke up with her. for NOTHING?!'
Doaho, a little voice whispered in his ear. Doaho Rukawa

.September, Saemi's birthday.
Fujima fingered the ring in his pocket.
So far, so good.
This time, he was gonna make it. He was sure of it. Very sure.
He was gonna go out into that crowd, ask her to be his girl, and she was going to agree. Hopefully.
He smiled nervously as Sendoh opened the door and winked at him. "Good luck."
He nodded and went inside the house. A lot of people were already there, and she was nowhere to be seen. He gulped and finally spotted her going into the kitchen. He followed, pushing through the crowd and finally appearing in front of the kitchen door.
It's time.
He gulped as he approached Saemi, who was sitting atop the kitchen counter, talking to Sendoh. Her brother gave him one look and bolted out the door with the excuse that he had to feed the dog.
(They didn't have one.)
Saemi turned her head, and Fujima was frozen on the spot. He tried to smile, but his muscles wouldn't work. He inched forward and cleared his throat.
She looked at him curiously as he clasped her hands in his and muttered something incomprehensible.
"Pardon?" She asked, blinking.
A reddish color stained his cheeks as he tried again, but he couldn't say anything. Desperate, he slipped the ring onto her finger instead and pulled her into a kiss.
*
Haruko glanced at Rukawa and sighed. He was too busy staring at Saemi and Fujima to pay attention to her. She sighed again and turned Rukawa's head to face her.
"Let's dance, Ru-kun."
He obeyed, but was clearly lost in his own thoughts as they danced. Haruko tried to ignore the sensations he made her feel and looked straight ahead, ignoring his handsome face and muscular build.
'Can't you learn to love me.?'
But she knew the answer. Deep inside he still loved her, and he always will.
Sendoh Saemi.
