Chapter: You are worth it


Miyako's P.O.V.

Lunchtime was good for us as the sun was shining and the clouds stayed away. The cheer team was practicing their solo moves while Annika was telling me what had happened to her with Brick.

I was a little surprised that Brick had such an interest in that book and was willing to hurt an innocent girl like Annika for it.

''If I would have known... ''I mumbled while Annika smiled back at me and gave me a lollipop from her lunch bag. ''Don't worry, they have nothing to use it for.'' She responded as I took the candy and ate it.

''So….what's going on with you and Boomer? I heard some gossip about him kissing you!'' Annika teased as she sat down next to me on the benches. The only thing I did was smile and look to the ground.

Boomer was so happy with that book that he kissed me on the mouth before he took off, but I wonder if he had noticed himself doing it. He probably realized afterward, making me giggle at his action as I thought back.

Apparently Bland had noticed as she was giggling while she stood before me. ''Is that a yes or a no?''

I looked around before I gave a small smile. ''I guess that in his enthusiasm he kissed me'' I said while already regretting telling them. I had really mixed feelings about Boomer and that kiss didn't help either.

Boomer also got my phone number and is sending me all kinds of cute messages throughout the day. I already knew I had no heart of stone, but he is really beginning to touch me. I'm smiling every time he sends something to me, I think about hem when he's not here and I really liked that kiss…

Bland and Annika both giggled until I reconnected my eyes with theirs. '' I knew Momoko was going to be a great distraction for Brick, but you dating Boomer is more than just a distraction….you two would make such a great couple'' Annika said as she began stretching her legs for some practice.

Boomer's P.O.V.

Miyako made me so happy today, I can't believe she gave me that book and let me kiss her. The kiss wasn't something I had planned or wanted to do but it just happened and it felt good. I knew I wanted another kiss as it was like heaven when our lips touched.

I dreamed on not realizing that recess time was flying by. I looked at my clock again…five minutes until recces ended and I had done absolutely nothing. Looking at my food again I realized that I wasn't hungry for food…I was hungry for another kiss.

Using my last few minutes I searched for Miyako who I found next to the soccer field with the rest of her cheerleader group. As I walked up to her the girls from her cheer squad began to giggle. I guess she told them or the gossip goes fast.

'' Miyako, can I talk to you in private?" I said as I came close enough for her to hear. She agreed and walked with me to the back of the benches. There we stood a moment in silent before one of us spoke.

''Look, I'm sorry that I surprised you today but you make me feel so warm inside…. If I rushed you then I'm sorry, I can wait for you to trust me.'' Miyako smiled lovely at me and that was when I had to admit something else to her. ''Also, I made you these and I want you to have them''

Boomer took a few drawings from his schoolbag and gave them to Miyako, who was impressed by what he had drawn for her. The first three drawings were beautiful, he had drawn her in a cowboy outfit, a long dress and her in his signature outfit.

She loved it and slowly turned to the fourth drawing. Unlike the drawings before this one was not what she had expected and looked at him with big eyes in surprise. On this picture, she wore her PPGZ outfit and she knew instantly that he knew.

''I know that if my brothers find out I will have a big problem, but to me, you are worth it. I love you Miyako and I would never kill you.''


Bricks .P.O.V.

As recces ended I brought Momoko to her class and walked over to the technology lab. The principle told me that one Lesley Ireland was a genius with computers and she was in that class now.

As I entered the room everyone stared at me in disbelieve or fear. ''I'm here to pick up Lesley'' A few seconds later I noticed a small girl with brown hair coming towards me. '' HI lord Brick'' she said as she stood before me and held her V-pad tight under her arm.

''Walk with me'' She obeyed and walked with me to a nearby empty classroom. I mentioned her to sit down and I showed her the security breaches I have had the last few days. She looked at it for a moment before she made eye contact with me. ''What do you want me to do?''

I gave her an evil grin before I replied. ''I want you to find out who was behind it and fix it so no one ever comes through my firewall again.'' The girls looked a little anxious but she was thinking about what to do. ''And what if I can't?''

I made my fist glow red a few inches from her face. ''I guess that violence or jail time would be the best option for you.'' She agreed immediately and I watched as she worked for the next few hours.

Watching her I noticed a few things. This girl was still on my list and could possibly be Blossom so I need to watch her every move. She was intelligent and ….she looked very tired..

''Lesley, you look tired. Did you stay up late last night?'' The girl looked at me before she nodded yes.'' I helped Momoko Akatsutsumi with studying Lord Brick, we were done in the middle of the night.''

I doubted that, but it did gave me one more excuse to talk to Momoko again. I again had to choose between Momoko or sleep and again Momoko won.

After school, I used my data to find Momoko's house and flew to it. There a little girl opened the door to me. She seemed a little scared of me but let me in when I asked her.

''Is Momoko home?'' I asked her while she brought me to the living room. She crossed her arms over her chest as she spoke to me. ''Why?''

I smiled at the girl before asking her what I actually wanted to ask Momoko. ''Did she study with Lesley last night?'' She seemed to think about it and gave me an answer I had not expected. ''Yeah I believe they were skyping about some Math problems until the internet stopped at nine. You really need to fix that for your people you know.''

I looked weirdly at the girl at first but then I laughed at her. She was still so innocent and I really did not want to spend more time on waiting. ''Alright well tell Momoko she has 4 hours to meet me at my castle or else I will have her arrested.''


Later on..

Momoko's P.O.V.

OMG, why didn't my sister tell me sooner I had to meet Brick before eight. I'm running as fast as I can towards the castle. I had no idea why Brick was calling me but I had to obey. Stupid Rowdyruffs!

I stopped to catch some breath when my watch beeped. I had not made it on time and knew Brick was going to use that against me later on. I walked the last part since I was already late and arrived at the entrance a few minutes later.

Brick opened the door and let me in. ''You're late. Some trouble finding the place?'' He asked a little sarcastic. I replied not all to nice back at him. '' No, just a little sister who always forgets things.''

Brick grabbed me by my left arm and took me to a big room. I noticed Butch and Boomer sitting on their throne as I got placed in the middle of the room. Brick then seated down between his brothers. ''I have a question for you and you better answer this correctly?'' What time was it that you stopped studying with Lesley Ireland yesterday?'' he asked me while he relaxed back in his throne.

I was a little surprised by this question and asked myself what outcome my answer would have. I stayed quiet and blinked a few times, to many discomforts of the boys. Then Butch jumped off his throne and walked towards me with glowing fists.

''I don't know! We stopped when the internet connection fell.'' I said with some panic in my voice. Butch looked at Brick who seemed to think about my answer. A long silence made me feel very uncomfortable and I was almost happy when Brick spoke again.

''What time do you think you were sleeping, after midnight or before?'' I answered much quicker than before as I came to the conclusion that my little sister must have told him about it. '' Before?!''

Butch seemed unpleased but Brick looked happy. ''I told you my Momoko wouldn't lie.'' He said as he jumped off his throne and walked towards Butch. ''I guess we have enough information to arrest that girl but please try to catch her in the act''

Butch and Boomer then both ran out of the room, leaving only Brick and me behind.

I didn't get much time to think as Brick hugged me from the back as soon as his brothers left the room. ''Come on Momoko, why so stiff? Can't you enjoy being around me for once?''

I sighed frustrated but almost yelped when he lifted me up off the ground. I had not expected this to happen and was very happy when he placed me back on the ground near his throne. He moved before me and took my head in his right hand while slowly lifting it.

Our lips were only inches apart but he didn't kiss me, he just stared in my eyes as I stared back. I had never felt someone having so much power over me and it felt very confusing. He then lowered my head and gave me a kiss on my forehead.

''I don't care how long I have to wait for you, I can feel we are meant to be''

Somehow that was touching but the feelings of justice were still there. I could not let myself fall in love with a bad boy like him and looked a little sheepish at him as my mind raced. Brick was already a step ahead and was planning his next move on me. ''Because you were five minutes late, I have some movies and Netflix for you to watch with me''
