A/N: Usual Disclaimers apply. Okay, this is part two of Fuko's Dairy. Thanx so much too all the people who reviewed the first chapter. I'm really honored to see that you guys really liked my first fanfic. Okay, The fanfiction starts two hours before the dance.
I was beginning to feel nervous. I glanced at the clock. Two hours and the dance would start. I could see the music equipment being loaded in to the hall. I felt butterflies in my stomach. Get a grip on your-self Fuko! I said to myself. You haven't even started singing yet and you're already getting stage fright! It wasn't really as if I hadn't been on stage before. Why, I swear that it was almost always me who landed up with the lead roles in all of the plays that we held at school. I had even been a participant in the battle that had taken place a few days back. (Days! It felt like months, even years!) . I looked over at Yanagi. She was my best friend, yet I didn't want to tell her, after all it was my surprise. If I told her what sort of surprise would that be!
"Fuko-San, I think we should be going change now." Said Aki. I turned to her and nodded. Ganko stood near-by and frowned.
"Who's going to dance with me? I'll have to watch you guys dance while I sit all alone!" Kauro smiled and grabbed her by the waist. He spun her around the room. Everyone giggled as they watched the two youngest hokages dance.
"I will." Said Kauro as he stopped dancing. Smiling Ganko took Yanagi's hand and all the girls went up into their own rooms to change. I locked my door and sighed. I then went into the bathroom, had a long shower then got dressed into my gown. I blow-dried my hair, put on my sandal and earrings and stood glumly as I studied my reflection in the mirror. I frowned.
I looked so…so girlish. For one minute I thought that maybe I should get dressed casually but then again it wouldn't make a good impression on the audience I was supposed to sing for.
I left the room and went over to the reception where I waited for the rest of the gang. The first person out was Tokiya. He looked soo handsome in his white tuxedo. I felt myself blushing. He saw me and began to walk over. He seemed a little red. That was a surprise! Tokiya blushing! Wow.
"I never really thought I'd see the day Fuko Kirisawa dressed like a girl! Or did Yanagi force you to wear this dress? " He asked. I gave him a cold look and replied:
"Yes, and I have dressed like a girl before, you just haven't seen me!" That was part true. Two years ago I had dressed as Belle in the stage production of Beauty and the Beast. I was surprised when he nodded and said:
"Yeah, you were Belle after all in Beauty and the Beast" I gaped at him. He had seen the play! My heart skipped a beat. Wait a minute. Blushing & heart stopping! These were the symptoms of a love illness. I wasn't going to fall for the ice-boy! No way. I gave Tokiya the coldest look I had ever given anybody and turned to wave at Saicho & Misora who were so deeply involved studying each other's face that they didn't notice me. I looked over at the
Clock and realized that it was almost time for the dance to begin. I quickly made my way to the hall and found myself in a crowd of big, strong workmen. It took me at least 2 minutes to make my way to the stage were the music band & the manager were
Discussing something. When I arrived he smiled at me and introduced me to the 3 band members.
"Fuko this is Mike, Ukala & Samuel, guys this is Fuko. Our lead singer." I smiled at them. Mike and Samuel were identical
Twins with really tanned skin, bulging muscles, bright blue eyes and blond hair. Ukala was quite dark with really cute brown
Eyes and long black hair.
For the next few minutes we were busy setting up the stage. I saw all my friends walk in. Everyone else in the hall had cleared
Out and only the partiers were there. I quickly turned and hid behind the curtains before any of them could see me. The music
Had begun and I heard the manager come up on stage.
"Ladies & Gentlemen welcome to the 3rd formal dance that we have hosted in Kiwi hotel since 1988." I could hear a round of
Applause. "Now with a formal dance, we also need a really good singer huh! Well, today is just your lucky day, may I present
You Fuko Kirisawa!" I walked pushed back the curtains and walked up to the microphone. I smiled as I waved to everyone. I
Tried not to burst out laughing at the surprised faces of my friends. Why even Saicho & Misora were staring at me in great
Shock. I straightened my shoulders and began to sing.
****************************************************
I had sung 5 different songs and was getting slightly tired. I was so relieved when the manager came up and announced the end
Of the singing and the band begun to play slow music. I hoped off of the stage and was immediately crowded around by my
Friends. The kept on inquiring about my signing. It took me some time to make them get away from me and go to their dancing.
I sat down on a seat and watched Kurei & Neon, Recca & Yanagi, Saicho & Misora, Ganko & Karou, Aki & Domon dance.
Konagei was in deep conversation with Miki while Tokiya was trying to get rid of this really pesky punk with pink hair who
Kept on asking him to dance with her.
I got up and walked over to the refreshment stand were I had some brownies. A really cute red head asked me to dance. We
Got onto the dance floor and soon I realized that there was a whole cue of guys waiting to dance with me. Soon I got tired and
Went over to sit down again. Again an entire crowd of boys came around me. They kept on asking me weird questions like:
"What is you horoscope?"
"Are you going steady with anybody?"
" Did you see that new movie that was released yesterday?"
"If you haven't may I accompany you to the cinema tomorrow after noon?" I just sat there. It was getting quite stuffy
And I began to get up.
"I have to get something to drink." I told them. They all jumped up and ran to the refreshment stand. I looked up and saw
Tokiya was observing the entire fiasco. He was smiling (I had never seen him smile before.) I blushed. The next minute there was an
Entire mob of every kind of drink being waved across my face. I waved them all away and said:
" You know guys, maybe I should get going." I saw Tokiya come over. He gave everyone a really cold stare. They all
Slipped away slowly, Tokiya grinned and without warning grab me by the waist and twirled me around. Right on cue the music
Turned funky and soon Tokiya & I were totally into dancing. We didn't notice the crowd that had gathered around us
And were taken totally by surprise when everyone broke into applause. I blushed and pushed my way out of the crowd. I just
Wanted to get away. I found myself outside near the swimming pool. I smiled when I pictured Tokiya and me dancing. Suddenly
I felt a hand on my shoulder. I spun around to see Tokiya. He moved closer, I closed my eyes as our face came closer…
"FUKO! TOKIY!"
The next minute I felt myself slip. I grabbed Tokiya's sleeve and whoa! Before we knew it we were in the swimming
Pool clinging onto at other. I looked up and realized that all my friends and a few other people were standing around laughing at
Us.
"Hey, isn't it a bit late to take a swim!" said Recca. I swam to the railing and climbed out. Angry and hurt I got out.
Tokiya got out and spun me around.
"Get away from me!" I shouted. He started at me angrily. Then kissed me. At first I was surprised but I began to kiss him back.
For a least 3 minutes we were kissing. Wen we broke away everyone around us had begun to applaud. I blushed. I ran back
To my room. Once I was in the privacy of my room I took out my dairy and wrote:
Dear Dairy,
I am in love with Tokiya! Oh, tonight we kissed and it was the most romantic moment! I love him! I really do. I sang quite a lot of songs at the dance and oh… I'm quite tired. I'll write and explain everything to you tomorrow.
-Fuko
I smiled. I got up and changed into my P.J. s. I felt good. It was written in the stars, me & Tokiya, Tokiya & Fuko. 'Now you sound like some pathetic romantic novel' I said to myself. I giggled as I thought of Tokiya and me near the swimming pool. I heard a knock on the door. I got out of bed, grabbed my robe and opened the door. I expected to see Yanagi or Neon but it turned out to be Tokiya.
"Er.. Hi I just wanted to make sure that you're alright. I want to apologize, you see I had no right to kiss you like that, specially in front of everybody. I hope this won't ruin our friendship." He said meekly. Now that was so UN-Tokiya like. I smiled, but I felt quite disappointed at the fact that he only saw me as a friend. After all I was beginning to see him from a different light.
"It's alright Tokiya, I'm not angry and no, this will not ruin our friendship." He nodded and left. I closed the door and sighed as I climbed into bed. I felt as if the world was coming to an end. 'Oh Tokiya' I said to no one in particular. 'Will you ever see me as a girl or will I always be 'The Tom Boy Hokage' in your eyes' I shut my eyes promising myself that I will make Tokiya fall in love with me, no matter what the price would be.
The next morning I woke up pretty late. Not bothering to hurry downstairs I took a long shower and changed into faded jeans and a small T-shirt. I didn't bother combing my air. I just ran downstairs. My friends seemed to have woken up late too. Everyone had just arrived when I came. Though I got loads of questioning looks no one said anything about what happened between Tokiya and me. I ordered breakfast and sat there with my hands cupping my chin. The manager walked in while I was in the middle of my breakfast.
"Miss. Fuko, I'm really sorry for interrupting you in the middle of your breakfast but I just got a call from Japan. Now, I hate to be the one to break the news to you but I have to tell you that your mother & father died in a car crash last night and…" he looked at me. I jumped up and shouted:
"How dare you try to make fun of me! You and exactly who else planned this out huh! NEVER PLAY THIS TRICK ON ME EVER AGAIN!" the entire hall had turned to look at me but I didn't care. I spun around and dashed out of the hotel. I heard my friends run after me shouting my name but I didn't care. I just wanted to get away from them all. I ran blindly. I didn't bother to see where I was going. I just found myself in a deserted part of the beach. I sat down on the sand and started to cry. As if right on cue the sky began to go dark and it begun to rain, but I didn't care. I just cried. Cried my heart out.
To be continued…
