Chapter 7~Riano's
POV
I tried really hard not to cuss
out the waitress as I dried myself with the towels. I took a look at my thighs
and they were bright pink, and I sighed in aggravation. If it had been a waiter
who spilled the coffee on me he would already be on the ground with a black
eye.
"I'm
really, really sorry miss, honestly!" the waitress explained.
"It's okay,
I'm fine." I replied and walked out of the backroom. I walked out to the front
and walked back to the table to get my books.
"Don't
even think about saying a word Duo!" I exclaimed and stormed out of the café. I
figured Hotaru had already left and I was curious to know what she did the
whole time I was out back drying myself. I decided to go back to the dorm and
change before going to my next class. There I found Hotaru. She signed to me,
"Hey are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm
fine, I just hope these coffee stains come out of my shirt and pants." I
exclaimed.
"I'm
sure they will. In the meantime, you better hurry up and change cause we gotta
head to our next class!" Hotaru informed me.
"Yes I
know." I changed into a red tank top and a new pair of jeans. "You know Hotaru
I was wondering, how did you manage while I was out back of the café?" I asked
and I saw her face go slightly pale.
"You
won't believe it but one of the guys knows sign language, Wufei!" Hotaru
exclaimed in sign language.
"Big
whoop! So do I, but hey at least you have someone else to talk to right?"
I said and Hotaru rolled her eyes and signed, "Yeah, Wufei would be the
last person I'd ever talk to." and I couldn't help but smile. We gathered
our instruments because our next class was music. We walked to our class and
when we got there we quietly took a seat. Our teacher had everyone else take a
seat and soon the class began. Our teacher explained to us all the rules and
expectations. I play violin and Hotaru plays the piano. We were so busy waiting
for the teacher to finish talking that we didn't notice two of Duo's buddies in
our class. Trowa Barton and Quatre Winner.
"Why don't
we start off with Trowa Barton and Quatre Winner. The two of you can play a
piece. It really is for four but a duet is fine. You may begin whenever you are
ready." our teacher explained and the two picked up their instruments.
Trowa plays flute and Quatre plays violin also, but I bet he's not as good as
me. Our teacher gave everyone the same music so we could follow along. They
began playing the piece and I'd have to admit it sounded pretty good. Our
teacher was right about it being okay for having a duet play for a piece that
called for four instruments, but it just didn't seem quite right. I waited for
the right measure and I jumped in. At first the teacher, Hotaru, Trowa, and
Quatre were caught off guard but soon caught on. Then, Hotaru joined in with us
and we all played the piece together. When we finished the classroom filled
with thundering applause.
"Trowa
and Quatre very nice and you too ladies," the teacher said pointing to us.
We both smiled and nodded. "Your playing shows you two have very good
sight reading skills!" the teacher added and we couldn't help but continue
smiling. The rest of the class our teacher assigned us music. I felt a tap on
my shoulder and I turned around.
"You
two ladies are very good!" It was Quatre.
"Thanks,
you guys are pretty good too." I replied.
"So
how long have you been playing?" Trowa asked me.
"Umm...I
think since I was five. Hotaru here's been playing the piano since she was five
too, right?" I asked and she nodded.
"You two were at the café earlier
today with Duo right?" Trowa asked and I nodded. "Yeah and you're
also in my gymnastics class too Riona." I couldn't help but smile.
Something about him made me feel weird, but not in a bad way. We all talked a
little more and once in awhile Hotaru would sign something and I'd translate
it. I bet she still had the feeling that they were all very familiar and she
wasn't too comfortable talking to them. Before we realized it, class was over
and it was time to head to our last class of the day, horseback ridding. Back
at our old school Hotaru and I were the best riders there and we intend to be
the best riders here at our new school as well.
"Hello
ladies, if you haven't noticed this is a horseback ridding class and it is for
ladies only," our instructor smiled but Hotaru and I didn't bother.
"My name is lieutenant Noin and I will be your instructor this year."
Lieutenant Noin is also my gymnastics coach too. I guess she takes care of all
the recreational stuff.
"I
know you all are eager to ride your horses but today we're just going to tour
the stables and talk about what is expected. We will begin riding our next
class and that is when I will be evaluating your levels." Lieutenant Noin
explained. We began by touring the stables and we happen to walk by the guys'
riding class. There we saw Trowa and Wufei. Again I had that uneasy feeling and
I couldn't help but stare. Hotaru noticed and signed to me, "Ooh!
Somebody's got a crush on Trowa Barton!" I couldn't hold it in and I
admitted defeat. Hotaru is very good at getting people to confess and good at
getting her way. We also caught a glimpse of Wufei.
"Hey
Hotaru, there's Wufei, why don't we go over there and say hi to him, after all
he's the only other person we know that can sign, hmm?" I suggested but
Hotaru began to shake her head and signed, ''No Way, not in a million
years!"
"I
guess I'm not the only one with a crush huh?" I smiled mischievously and
Hotaru put up her fist as if to say, "You're asking for a black eye aren't
you?" and I backed down. Lieutenant Noin finished up the class by telling
us her expectations and finally the day was over.
"I'm
so glad this day has ended. It felt so long!" Hotaru signed and I agreed.
On our way back to our dorm we found out that the curfew was nine-thirty. We
walked back to our dorm, put our books and things away, and had a quick dinner.
"Man,
these dorms may have TV's but I'm sure they set only certain channels you can
watch!" I said to Hotaru as I flipped through the channels. She was
reading a book and set it down.
"Why
don't we go explore the campus? We have till nine-thirty!" Hotaru signed
and I nodded in agreement. We decided to ride our horses and took our
instruments along with us. Both of us had mares,
Hotaru's is pure black and mine is brown with a black mane
and tail named Naomi. We rode around campus and soon we found a small lake and
decided to rest there and play our instruments. Instead of playing the piano
though, Hotaru played her ocarina. We played the song 'White Reflection' which
we learned back at our old school. We almost finished playing the whole song
when Hotaru suddenly stopped.
"What,
what is it? What'd you stop for?" asked in confusion and she signed to me,
"I heard something, behind the bushes." I set down my instrument and
the both of us walked over to where Hotaru said the noise came from. We were
about to part the leaves when suddenly a figure appeared and Hotaru and I
jumped back in fear. It was a guy and he was holding up a gun. Behind him
appeared four other faces and three of which we recognized easily.
"Trowa,
Quatre, Duo, is that you?" I asked.
"Riona?"
they asked in confusion and we all said in unison, "What are you doing
here?"
"Well,
Hotaru and I were practicing and you?" I asked.
"Oh, we were just walking around. You girls played very nicely!" said Quatre and Hotaru and I smiled. The guy with the gun put it down and just stood there and listened. I felt someone elbow me in the arm and noticed it was Hotaru. She signed to me, " Oh my gosh, they look so much like gundam pilots Riona you have to believe me!" But I still disagreed. I signed back to her,
"Okay
I think you've gone through too much today. Maybe we should go back to the
dorm?" I suggested but Hotaru didn't listen to a word I said.
"You
gotta believe me! You know, you gotta think about other people's opinions too
instead of just concluding to your own all the time!" Hotaru signed.
"What?
What do you mean me? Speak for yourself!" I retorted and we had a small
argument but it soon died out. We both turned back to the guys and apparently
Wufei understood every single word we signed.
"Anyways,
what were you guys doing here? Are you spying on us?" I asked.
"No,
of course not we were here for our own reasons and we just happen to meet
up." Duo explained coolly. I was still angered from the argument that I
didn't bother listening to what he had said.
"Whatever!
You know, I've had enough today, lets go Hotaru." I said and we packed our
instruments.
"See
you guys around!" I said to them and I had Naomi take off after Hotaru's
horse.
