Chapter Three: The MGMs
"What's a MGM?" asked Hitomi confused.
"MGM is this poll we had in for newspaper, which I might suggest you should read sometimes," Yukari said with a little hint of annoyance.
"It stands for 'Most Gorgeous Man' of Gaea. We had the girls vote for the MGM and the guys voted for the MGW (most gorgeous woman)," finish Merle.
"Well who won?" Hitomi asked.
"There are 5 winners. Allen, of course, is voted most handsome. Folken, a senior, is voted most mysterious (A/N: in my story, Folken and Van aren't brothers). Amano…" Millerna stopping to give Yukari a teasing smile than continued, "is voted most sportive and kind. Dryden, another senior, is voted most charming and of course there's Van who is said to be the…"
"Sexiest and sweetest," Merle finished for her.
"Wow…he must really be something if he just came here and is already voted one of the hottest guys of the school," Hitomi started to say, "I can't believe they actually vote for this. What I can't believe even more is Millerna actually reads the school newspaper."
Now was Millernas time to blush, "I read the dating section…"
Giggling, Hitomi added, "Who are the MGW?"
"*Giggles*, who else? Us of course!" answered Millerna.
"US? You sure about that?" Hitomi said not believing her ears.
"Hey, maybe you're not gorgeous but the rest of us are!" replied Merle joking, than added, "yes, sleeping beauty, us. I counted the votes myself. You're voted the most sportive. Millerna is voted most beautiful, no surprise there. Yukari is voted most charming and amiable. Me, I'm voted most mysterious. A person has to be extremely gorgeous to be voted MGM or MGW, so the different categories doesn't really matter."
"Wait but isn't there supposed to be 5 girls? Who's the last one?" asked Hitomi taking a bite of her sandwich.
"It's Selena," said Yukari who just finished her lunch. "You know, Allen's little baby sister. She's still a sophomore but who can resist a Shezar? She's voted the sweetest and kindest."
"So if you see people staring at you in the halls, for once, it's not about your weird hair cut, it's because your one of the MGW" laughed Merle.
"Haha, highly amusing Merle. I wonder, just how did you end up being a MGW? You probably voted 10 000 times for yourself." Hitomi shot back. Just before the two girls were about to start a catfight, a voice from behind stopped them.
"Hey, um…does Hitomi Kanzaki sit here?"
Seeing Merle's jaw drop, Hitomi figured it must be someone important. Turning around, she saw a familiar face.
"Van! Hi! What are you doing here?" she said while getting up from her chair smiling.
"Well, I came to bring you this," he showed her a delicate pink pendant. "I think you dropped this when we dumped into each other this morning."
'Wow, no wonder he's one of the MGM, he's is really gorgeous,' thought Hitomi. "Oh, thanks! I thought I dropped it somewhere." Then seeing Merle's desperate eyes, she introduced him to her friends. "You can sit and have lunch with us if you want."
"Have lunch with the 4 of MGWs of Gaea? I think I'll have even more trouble settling in if I sit with you guys. I bet the other guys would probably die of jealously." He said still smiling. "It's okay, I better go anyways. Catch you later!" he said giving one last smile to Hitomi and then waved at the other girls.
"Bye," Hitomi said as she watched him jog away.
"Wow! Is he FINE!" giggled Millerna, "Is he taken?"
"Yes, by me," Merle said as she gave Millerna a 'back off' look and burst into laughter. "No he's single," said Merle finally, "but not if I can help it."
"I admit he is good looking but I still think Allen is better," sighed Hitomi.
"Honey, Allen is gorgeous but he's a jackass. Trust me, he's not worth it." Millerna said reassuringly.
*ring…*
"Oh great! I didn't even finish my lunch and I have a track practice tonight," Hitomi said extremely annoyed. (A/N: is it just me or does their lunch period seem kinda short?)
"Don't worry, I'll bring you something to eat after practice. It won't be a big deal since Amano and I are going out anyways," Yukari said casually. "I just hope the team captain won't be all smelly and sweaty."
"To think you'd be used to it by now," said Hitomi giggling. "Thanks Yukari, don't know what I'd do without you." And with that, Hitomi said goodbye to her friends as she left for her locker.
***What's going to happen between Hitomi and Van? How's Merle going to react to it? More to come and maybe some scenes with Allen. R&R***
