A/N: I'm sorry if this freaking story is full of sap. My freak teachers don't help much but hey, who said that they are really of any help. *a big rock falls on her head*

Darkness VII: Hey, no rocks yet peeps!
The gods: Sorry! We just had to!

Anywayz...on with the story

PS

Thanks to DJ leathal's rogue slayer for all the help. All the crap that was swimming around my head finally made sense. Domo Arigatou!

Chapter 3- Are? What did you say, cuz?

~7:00 pm, main hall, Tokyo University~

All heads turned to their direction as they entered the main hall.

"I feel like a baka. Why does everyone have to stare at us?" Fuuko asked

"Oh no, it's just that they think that I'm gonna go with that air-headed 'heartthrob' freshman
girl. I doubt they'd think I'd go with you." Tokiya replied blankly

"Heh, sure, sure" she said "Do you plan to stand here or get a seat?" Fuuko asked, partially annoyed.

They went to a table near the food so Fuuko 'could stuff her mouth with food like a monkey would' as Tokiya stated.

"Hey, Mi-chan, wanna dance?" Fuuko asked

"And what? Me, get sore feet afterwards? Doubt it." he replied cooly

"You're just like...never mind."

"Just like who?" he asked

"No one, well, I have to go, bye." saying this as she waved goodbye to Tokiya

"Matte! Let me take you home. It won...." too late, Fuuko had left

::Kuso! But why did she leave? Did I say something wrong?::

~The next day...~

Tokiya was standing around the school gates looking for Fuuko.

::I should look for her and ask what's wrong:: he thought

"You worry too much, you know" said a familiar female voice from behind him

"And you are?" he said as her turned to face the girl

"It's Ai, you moron!" she replied

It was his cousin, an American 14 year old, a bit younger Koganei, Andrea Kusagi. Her dad is Japanese and her mom is American, that's why she has long, curly, blond hair. She's on Tokiya's mother's side and apparently very wealthy.

"You'll never change" he said cooly

"Look who's talking" she replied sarcastically

"What are you doing here anyway?" he asked, annoyed

"Dad's here for business trip and I came to check on my cousin, but since I see how you welcome me, I guess I'd better just go back home." she started to turn around and walking away. She was just acting and believe me, it's working.

"Wait! Ai, don't go. I need help..." running, ahem, walking quickly, to get to her.

"Why should I wait for you? After being mean to me? No way. Ble" sticking her tongue out.

"I said stop, Andrea" He said firmly

::He never calls me by my first name. He always calls me by that nickmane HE gave me. I bet he's in serious need of help if he calls me 'Andrea':: "Okay, okay, why?"

"I know you know why." ::dang this girl gets to me, I hate frisky kids::

"Oh, I bug you don't I? Well, Mr. I-hate-frisky-kids, for your info, I'm not a kid anymore and if you continue on treating me like this, I won't help you at all"

"Okay, okay, gomen, now please help me, I beg of you."

::And for once his swollen ego just didn't bother to say a word:: "Well, Mr. Man, first you have to know what's bothering Fuuko-nei, then you tell me what's wrong."

"Ai, I know you know why Fuuko's acting this way. So why don't you just tell me already."

"If I do that, will it prove that you love Fuuko-nei? She won't know that you love her if you do not get to the bottom of this"

"But how?"

"If you're so smart, why don't you figure it out yourself?" saying this as she was walking to her black limo, opening the door and sticking her tongue out one last time.

::Shimatta, that kid is soooo annoying.:: he thought

"I heared that!" she yelled from an open window in the car

::That girl has so much power but still she gets on my nerves::

At that moment, his brigade of fan girls arrive with murmurs like...

"Who was that girl?"

"Is she trying to steal my Mikagami-sama?"

"What a bitch"

"American asshole"

"An American girl can't steal MY Mikagami-sama"

and they ganged up on him asking the same old questions over and over again. [you really don't
expect me to go through the whole bit over again, ne?]

But he paid no attention to them, he was lost in thought.

::Fuuko, my Fuuko, what's wrong with you? Why do you seem dazed all the time. Distracted. I can't understand you. I hope you are alright::

~in the limo~

::Dear, dear cousin. Poor, poor cousin. If only you knew::

::Ack!, you're pathetic. You are not the same Mikagami Tokiya I knew 5 years ago. You've changed. I hope you find out soon, I feel bad about not telling you, but if try your best to find out, she will know that you love her. This I know.::
