Previously on Mr. Arrogant meets Ms. Plain Jane...
Then were at the staircase. We were at the second floor, and Natsume was in the first floor. Aoi-san patted her arms at the staircase, then she whistle and called out his name. "Natsume."
Natsume turned his head on our way, then he irritatedly looked at his sister. "Now wh-" He didn't finish what he was trying to say.
I was sure he'll say 'Now what?' to his sister when he saw me.
Then our eyes met.
And my heart beated and pumped so fast!
"Doki... doki.. doki.." I can hear it, the pumping of my heart, beating for the nth time.. I can't hear of anything else other than that.
Natsume continue to stare at me, eyeing me like he was seeing right through my soul, like he can feel what I feel. And I can't stand it! A few more seconds of him eyeing me, and I'll go crazy!
He looked so handsome--no! Gorgeous and cool is the appropriate word. He looked so stunningly beautiful, like he was a God or a very handsome evil person. His hair was stylishly combed. He wore an Armani black slacks, black Armani dinner jacket and an Armani white polo inside, that opened it's neckline, revealing his Adams apple down to his neck. I noticed he wore an Omega silver watch, and he wore a pair of expensive black leather shoes. It's shiny, perfectly fitting his feet. And he even smelled great! I know I'm quite far from him, but still, I can smell his fragnance. Was it his hair? Clothes? Soap? Perfume? Cologne? Or it was just really his natural scent? Over all, anyone who might see him like this, would go head over heels over him. Even a gay might say he's 'delicious'. He has really a nice body, whether he wears a prince suit or any other suit, it would really suit him. And I was in awe.
He stood up and went at the end of the staircase, waiting for me to go down. I walked down but I can't walk properly because of the high heels, I mean I walk like a duck.
"Waah.." I'm really a country girl.
When I was about to reach the floor, I lost my balance and I'm nearly stumbling on the floor.
But someone's hand caught me. And it was his.
It was warm, and soft. It's amazingly beautiful, like an actor's hand or something.
"Darn, how can God be so unfair?" I muttered. I mean it was clearly understandable that a commoner's hand is different from a son of a multi-millionaire.
Then I felt the transferring of an electric current all over my body. And it awakened my sleeping cells. I got nervous & conscious. I looked up to him, and he was looking down right through me.
I immediately stood up, then I said, "I-I-I'm s-sorry..." I stammered.
"B-be c-careful.."
Was I imagining? He was stammering? Because of what?
We totally forgot that Aoi-san is there, looking at us so she coughed.
"Ehem.. ehem.. Goodluck with the party & take care, I'll get back to my room. You, akuma, take care of her." Then she went back to her room. I can see amusement all over her face.
Natsume just ignored her sister and she looked at me.
I looked at him too.
Then there was the silence, the tension, and it made me quite unnerving.
"Y-you look gorgeous.." he almost whispered. Then he blushed.
"What?! Is Nastume blushing? And he told me I'm gorgeous?! Is he serious?!" I thought. Really, never in my dreams that he would tell me I look good! Even a single hint!
So by hearing his thoughts and when I saw his red face, my face turned red too. Weird, but I felt really happy when he told me I'm beautiful.
"Let's go to the party, the driver was waiting for us." He grabbed my hand, then he helped me leave his house.
He opened the door for me and let me enter his car.
The driver looked at me, then he said, "Hey, is that you? Can't believe you look like a model." Then the driver I exchanged conversations with, laughed.
"Yeah, it's me." I laughed too.
I looked at Natsume, he wasn't interested in our conversation. He just kept being quiet and he was looking at the car window.
Then my heart beated and pumped so fast.
I was really thinking why how this past few days, I became a weird girl.
Then I came to a shocking realization.
Why I was nervous when I'm with him, why there's an electric current transferring throughout my body when he touched me, why I get conscious when he stares at me, why I'm happy when he gave me a compliment, why I don't wanna leave his side, why I drowned into his handsome face, why I get crazy just talking to him, why I act weird, why I got hurt when somebody kissed him, or should I say I got jealous, why I always think of him, why I always stammered, why I always get this jittery, tingly sensation whenever he got near, and why I got hurt every time he only thinks of Haruna.
I'm in love with him.
And I fell really hard.
Then that's when the time I noticed that the mp3 is on, and it was a song that completely strucked my feelings.
But she wears short skirts, I wear t-shirts,
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers,
Dreamin' bout the the day when you wake up and find
that what you're lookin' for has been here the whole time.
If you could see that I'm the one who understands you,
Been here all along so why can't you see?
You belong with me.
You belong with me.
I'm really crazy if I'll think that he belongs with me when it's clearly understandable that he has already 2 fiance! But still, I can't deny the fact that I have fallen for him.
And I can't really deny the fact that I ate my words. Telling myself I can't fall for someone like him? I thought it would be too impossible.
I guess not.
But right now, I'm with him, and yeah, I feel grateful. Too much gratitude that I don't want to spoil. Being with him is enough. So enough that even though I knew his mind was with someone else, I'll just let it be. And I would never complain about it.
Cause I have no right.
I'm just a classmate helping him, and I care enough for him.
Just let things flow as they are. And time will eventually heal some sorts.
Being with him, near and close, is enough. And I wouldn't expect more.
We were near at Haruna's house, and I swear it's one of the most beautiful houses I've ever seen! How can somebody be this rich? I've never seen such a huge house before, until I went to the Hyuugas.
Of course I'm not surprised if the structure of the house were made with glasses. Everything seemed to be transparent. And guess what? Their pool was heart-shaped. It's cool & nice. Is that even possible?
I noticed that the theme of the party is color pink. Anything that deals with color pink.
"So this is Haruna's favorite color?" I guessed.
Then I saw her there with her visitors, wearing a balloon pink strapless & backless gown. It's cool. And sexy. Then her hair, ironed straight, with a matched make-up on her face.
Of course everybody would find it sexy, she's a model after all.
We went out of the car, then the driver said he'll wait at the parking lot till the party ends.
So we waved goodbye at him.
"Stay at my back." Natsume said.
"How ungentleman!" If I were Haruna I would hang him on the ceiling! The nerve!
But I still follow him. So when we were near at Haruna, the birthday celebrant, she smiled. No, actually it was only meant for Natsume. She didn't even bother to take a look at me.
But I notice, while we were walking, everybody is looking at us. Is that look meant for me or for this handsome guy before me?
But somehow, I found it amusing. I guess I don't look really bad tonight. Thanks to Aoi-san.
Then finally, Haruna saw me. She have a shocking face, like she didn't knew it was me. Then she thanked me.
"Thank you for coming." She even smile, poor her. Like I knew it wasn't real.
"Happy Birthday." I said, half-sincerely. And now I knew how it feels what social people like her do. Those who thank like they're sincere but actually it was not. A whole different person, that is.
She just nod. Actually I don't bother to buy her a gift.
She gave Natsume a peck in the lips and she said, "Will you be my escort tonight?"
Natsume smiled and said, "Sure." Then he gave her his gift.
'I'll open this later. Come let's go."
Natsume whispered to me, "I'll call you when I'm bored." Then they went off.
I already knew that. But somehow, my chest hurts. Like it's gonna burst. Oh well.
Then I looked around.
"Big time." I muttered.
Obviously, all I can see were celebrities. Then I saw Erika Yamato, the girl I saw a night ago, eyeing Haruna and Natsume.
"Love Triangle?" I thought. Or should I say Love Square? I'm involved too.
Even tough I knew it was wrong to love him.. Should I began to hope? I knew I'll get hurt in the end but, will it do?
Tell me what to do..
Sneaky Preview..
"Kissing a total stranger?! It's ridiculous!"
"Not the pig.. Please not the pig!" I prayed.
"Now who's this other pig?!" I nearly shouted.
Uh-oh. So now she finally admit that she love him! And thanks to those who reviewed.. I love it & I promise I'll try to make longer chapters. Mua! Mua!
