Chapter 12
Weeks have passed but Kenji and Kaori remained the most talked about couple in school. Everyone, including the faculty was watching them. So far, there are no slips on their straight-A marks. Seeing them walk around campus hand in hand was a regular sight too. Kenji also became a frequent visitor at Kaori's house. More importantly for them, the dreams have stopped haunting them both. They have talked about those dreams, analyzed its significance to their lives and finally agreed that it was indeed the hands of Fate at work. Everything was working out the way it was supposed to and they couldn't ask for anything more. Everything is perfect.
"Hiyyyyaaaaaah!!" Kaori couldn't believe her eyes. Kenji was too fast and it was too impossible to catch his movements by the naked eye. The Inter-School Kendo tournament was just a week away and the Kendo Club headed by Kaori were busy training. All the positions were filled up so Kaori decided to withdraw to give Kenji her slot. Kenji's just a newcomer but he moves as if he was a born swordsman. It was a very questionable trait and some couldn't help but raise their eyebrows. Regardless, Kaori didn't bother to investigate any further because she knew in her heart the answer to that question, and as far as she's concerned, that was enough. "Sugoi Kenji!!!" Kaori clapped her hands and hugged her boyfriend. "Though I must confess, I couldn't follow!" Kenji wiped his sweat and grinned at Kaori. "I'm not so sure how I did it either." He sat beside Kaori and absently watched the students practicing. "Instinct, I guess." He added, barely whispering. Kaori took Kenji's hand and nodded. Just that and everything was understood. Everything was all right. Kenji focused his attention to Maki and Yoshi who were sparring. "Hey Kaori" Kaori looked up at Kenji. "Yeah?" Kenji pointed to Arashi who was sitting alone across them, staring into space. "Why isn't he joining this year?" Kaori looked at Arashi's direction and sighed. "I really don't know. Arashi doesn't tell me anything, we don't talk that much. I guess he didn't take his defeat last year too well." Kaori looked away and fiddled with her hair. "Well, maybe you should talk to him about it.. you know, cheer him up or something." Kaori looked at Kenji as if he told her he was gay. "Cheer up? Arashi? Smile? Talk? Earth to Kenji!! Are you crazy?" Kaori looked at Kenji sarcastically. "Yeah! You're the Kendo captain, right? Besides, Maki, Shino, Yoshi and I would be sweating our bodies in training, and Meimi would be busy assisting in the clinic for those injured. That leaves you and Arashi time for some bonding!" Kenji smiled at Kaori teasingly, but he was dead serious about his suggestion. "Shut up!" but when she saw that Kenji was serious, she finally gave in. "Okay! Okay! Hai!! The things I do!" she playfully punched Kenji and walked off towards Arashi grumbling.
Kaori plopped beside Arashi and grinned at him. Arashi seemed to not notice her at all. She smiled at him again and again... And again. Still no reaction. Gods! Kaori complained to herself. This place could fall apart and all hell could break loose and this guy besude me wouldn't notice a thing! Talk about super concentration.. She stuck her tongue out at Arashi but he still didn't blink an eye. This is gonna be a loooooong day She stood up in front of Arashi and took off her jacket. Then she started to pull up her t-shirt and grinned at Arashi. Let's see if he still won't talk this time
"Do you want your boyfriend there to kill me?" a cool monotonous voice interrupted her show.
"Finally!" Kaori rolled her eyes and sat in front of Arashi. "I thought I had to go through stripping completely!" She smiled and toyed with her bokken. "So..uh.. why aren't you joining this year?"
".."
Kaori looked up, waiting for an answer.
".."
"Arashi?"
Still nothing.
"Don't you answer when someone asks you a question?!"
"Arashi looked up and fixed his frozen blue eyes at Kaori's flashing blue ones. "Do you always interrupt other people's peace to ask them personal questions?"
"Nanda?" Kaori didn't know what to say. No one has ever treated her this way before. Not a single person dared treat her with utter coldness and disregard. And she was not about to give Arashi that pleasure. She was not. Who does he think he is anyway? NOT.
Kaori stood up and put her hands on her hips. "Do you always have to be so sarcastic?! Look, I came her cuz I thought you might need some company, some cheering up. A friend, or whatever you want to call it. I did not come here to be insulted or ignored by an egomaniac like you. Gomen nasai if you think I'm intruding. I'll just leave you and your frozen walls alone." She looked straight at Arashi, her sky blue orbs equally icy. She turned around and walked away.
"Matte!"
Kaori turned around to see Arashi standing up and walking towards her. When he reached Kaori, he bowed down and looked at her. "gomen nasai Kamiya-san. It was not my intention to hurt you." Kaori blinked up at him, surprised. And for a moment there, she could've sworn that those ice blue eyes radiated warmth and kindness towards her.
Or was it her imagination?
