Hey... How's life? Mine is going fine, summers great. IMSOSRRYIMSOLATEWITHTHISUPDATEDONTHATEME!
I've really busy. I just got back from a two week trip to Ireland and England and than I had to repack and I'm gone to camp next week. I kinda hit the ground running after my last chapter. Oh, and before the trip I had my dance showcase, which nearly killed me, it was so long...
But I got a quick chapter written, It'll be in a few parts because I'm still pretty upset about things and stuff(Real descriptive there, right?) So I'm still trying to hunt down my inspiration but I think I'll just have to force it. Let me know how to improve my writting, I feel as though I'm losing touch with it, which is very upsetting.
ANYWAY!
Allons-y! My fellow readers!
It was a warm summer night, a cool breeze was playing with the leaves in the trees and the summer festival was going on down in the cherry blossom park. Mia had been waiting all break for this, the summer festival! It was the only time in the whole year she got to dress in her traditional garments and was not frowned at for being strange. Zo usually dreaded it because she was forced to go as well; dressed up like a doll by her sister. This year they were finally going to match; just to throw off Tamaki. Mia wanted to go with the green this year, it always looked best with her hair. Mia wanted to look her best for Kaoru, and secretly, wanted Zo to appear fantastic for Hikaru; if Mia couldn't get Zo to understand, she was going to make Hikaru. She had about three hours to get both of them model-ready for when Tamaki was going to pick them up, the time of mind games starting then.
"William!" Mia yelled down the long hallway filled with old pictures of the twins and William.
"Yeah? What?"
"Have you seen Alice around? I need her to find Zo for me!"
"You don't have to find her, she's trying to hide out in-HMF!"
"Would you be quiet?"
"Zo! Get in here now! I only have a few hours! Hurry up!" No reply. Mia didn't really have time to play chase with Zo today. It was time to lay down the law. "ZO! I know where you are and where you're going! So you might as well give up now!"
"GAH! Leave me alone! I don't want to go!"
"You're just embarrassed because you made a fool of yourself last time you saw the gang! Get over it! I'm sure they already knew you had Dragon tattooed on your butt!"
"THAT. WAS NOT THE PROBLEM! It was the fact that they saw my butt! You dipshit!" Zo stuck her head around the corner as she said this, red as the morning sky.
"Anger, dear; it's not very pretty on you."
"Do you even hear yourself?! Do you know who you sound like?!"
"yes, I think I sound like the voice of common sense."
"You can be so arrogant sometimes!" Zo whipped her head back around the corner and took off to go through the backdoor of their room, to avoid giving Mia the satisfaction of her giving up. Mia only smirked, another mother impersonation for the win.
"So, how do you like it? You look good, right? Right?! Ah! It's so exciting!"
Zo couldn't deny the fact that she did look good in the clothes and her hair did look pretty fantastic; Mia had curled the natural curl in her hair to make it look like she had been blessed with perfect looking spirals. Damn, foiled again, now she had to go. Mia had also somehow perfected the look by matching herself to Zo down to the very last detail; part of the bangs, size of curls, shoes, make-up, the whole shebang.
"This is stupid. Why are we going again?"
"Zo, we've gone every year since we were kids! How could we not go this one time?!"
"Because I hate all of them. Every last one."
"including-"
"Yes, Including Honey. I'm sick, can I stay home?" Mia felt Zo's head, who was knelt down in front of the bed now, leaning against the wooden post.
"You are not! You're… You're nervous, aren't you? Ah! That's adorable!"
"I hate it when you do that! Stop it!"
"Do what?"
"Go all girly and giggly and sappy. Its GROSS."
"What?!"
"Yeah, puppy love? That is soooo sickening. I hate it."
"You mean the honeymoon phase?"
"Yes! It's awful! Guys look at you weird and try to get really close way too fast."
"Well, I don't think that's what- hm… never mind."
"That what who?" Zo sat up from her slouched position. She knelt in front of Mia, grabbing her knees, preventing her from moving away. "Who, dearest Mia? Hm?"
DINGDONG
"Ah, the door! I gotta get that!" Mia easily pushed past Zo as she hurried from the room.
"DAMNIT MIA! Tell me who!" Mia ran for her life, knowing full well that a demon was hunting her down the hallway. Mia was rushing to the door, yelling at William to answer it for her, trying to find safety in numbers. Right as Mia was making her way down the main staircase, William was opening the door and in walked Tamaki.
"Tamaki! Help me!"
"What?! Oh, sweet Mia! Anything for my sweet daughter!"
"Gah, you're such a weirdo!" William was walking away slowly from the situation, not really wanting to get involved, seeing as how weird it was already.
Zo was flying at high speeds down the stairs, yelling and barking out terrible things at Mia and Tamaki, completely missing the fact that Alice had come out of her sleeping spot to say goodbye. Alice walked right into Zo as she was taking her last step off the stairs, trying her best not to tread on the animal.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
CRASH!
WHOOF! YIP!
"Alice! Ah, poor baby! Are you okay?! Did big, old, mean Zo step on your tail?!" Mia rushed over and picked up her dearest pet, who was almost full grown at this point. Alice made the saddest dog face she could muster, but than licked Zo's face to forgive her.
"Ah! Don't lick me! I have make-up on! Geesh! Dog! Why are you ALWAYS in the way?!"
"Zo! Don't yell at the poor thing!" Tamaki tried to defend, but failed terribly.
"Mia! The dog walked right in front of me! She had time to move and didn't! And it's not like I could stop!"
"Yes, you couldn't, because you were in a raging fit and people got hurt!"
"No, I got hurt and the dog had a tail stepped on! Look at this swelling! I'm not going to be able to walk on that!" Zo yanked her skirt up her leg to show off her ankle that looked as if it had doubled in size already.
"Well that was fast…"
"Tamaki, be quiet. Please. This is not going to work, How in the world am I go to the festival if I can't even walk?!" Zo was about to start crying, this day could not have gone any worse. Oh, shoot… Bad things happen when I say that…
"Tamaki, are the girls ready?" Of course he'd be here… There's the worse part.
