Unexpected

Chapter Five

"C'mon, Mi-chan! Hurry!"

"We have the whole day, Fuuko."

"But if we hurry now, then we'll have more time to do more things!"

"We have two more weeks."

"Oh, c'mon!"

I sighed.

Fuuko and I were going to have lunch somewhere nice for a change since we normally ate take-outs at home. Obviously we got tired of eating the same thing every single day. _

So today I told her that we could eat out and she squealed with delight and rushed out of the door. So now, she was hurrying to get to the restaurant. oh and did I tell you that I was paying for it? Yeah.if you're wondering why.I myself have no idea.

"Gosh, Mi-chan! YOU are much slower than a TURTLE."

I groaned and continued walking.

****

"What will you be having, miss?" the waiter asked Fuuko.

Fuuko scanned her menu. "I will be having.this.and.oh! That!"

"Good choice.and you sir?"

"I will have the same as hers."

"Okay.anything else?" "No, thanks."

The waiter nodded and left our table.

Fuuko looked around her for a while and turned to me.

"Wow.Kyoto's such a beautiful place!"

I smiled slightly as a sign of agreement.

"Who was that girl the other day?"

I looked at her and recalled the other day. I laughed inside of me seeing Kazuma getting shocked when she saw Fuuko.

"Oh.her.I told you didn't I? She's just one of my admirers."

"Mmm.Just to let you know, she's been following us ever since this morning." Fuuko pointed at someone behind me.

I raised my eyebrow and looked behind me. Sure enough, it was Kazuma.

"Mikagami-san!" she squealed with such an annoying voice. "I didn't know you were here!"

I groaned.

Then she turned to Fuuko. "You.what are YOU doing here with Mikagami-san?"

I looked at Fuuko.

She had that familiar look of hers that meant she was getting annoyed and was about to explode.

She stood up, pushing her chair back.

"Is it ANY of your business?"

"Yes." I looked at Kazuma and saw her turning red with frustration.

"Honestly, if you think that there's something between me and Mi-chan, well you're wrong. We. are just. FRIENDS. FFRRRIIEENNDDSS." I looked at Fuuko, amazed that she didn't explode. Then she turned to me.

"Right, Mi-chan?"

"W-what? Oh, uh, yeah."

I was in awe. I looked at Kazuma and saw that she was relieved but still had that sharp eye.

"Good.sigh!" she smiled again.to me but frowned at Fuuko. "See you soon, Mikagami-san! And you.I'm keeping an eye on you, my dear rival."

She flipped her hair and walked away.

Fuuko once again sat on her chair and crossed her arms. "That girl.is absolutely.POSITIVELY.ANNOYING."

I shrugged my shoulders. "Just don't mind her."

"How can she believe that we're together? It's not like we look like we're dating."

I reacted to that statement. I looked at Fuuko immediately and saw that she was red. She saw me look at her and gazed at something else.

I imitated her and looked at something else.

For a while, there was silence. Then Fuuko broke it.

"We DO look like we're dating, huh?"

"I don't know."

****

We spent the whole day being tourists in Kyoto. We visited the old temples, castles, parks, etc. By the end of the day we were too tired to go have dinner outside. So we decided to just go home and relax for the night.

"Mi-chan.so tired." Fuuko dragged her feet along as I walked in front of her.

"Jeez, you've gotta be kidding, Fuuko. We're only a few blocks away, you know."

"That's easy for you to say.you're used to this already!" she whined.

I rolled my eyes in exasperation. Being fed up with her complaints, I finally took hold of her hand.

"C'mon.walk faster or I'll pull you."

I grasped her hand tightly yet gently and pulled her with me. I didn't look back. I didn't want to see the expression on her face and I didn't want to get warm once again.

But I _did_ like the feel of holding her hand.

"Okay, okay, Mi-chan!" she giggled and held my hand tightly.

****

After dinner we decided to watch the late-night movie. We made popcorn, brought out sodas, chips, ice cream.all kinds of junk food.

When the food preparations were all done, we turned off the lights and sat on the couch. We had two blankets with us and tons of pillows. Some sort of slumber party, you might say.

Finally, when we got comfy, we turned on the TV.

****

We watched the movie for three hours and when it was near the end, Fuuko had fallen asleep. She unconsciously leaned her head on my shoulder and snuggled near me.

"What the--!" I was surprised when she came closer to me. I didn't know what to do! 'Should I wake her up?'

Deciding not to, I put my arm around her and waited until the movie ended.

****

When the movie ended, I carried Fuuko in my arms to my room.

(Don't get malicious-minded, all you people out there!!)

I opened the door (by kicking it) and put her on my bed. I tucked her in behind the blankets and was about to leave when she whispered out my name.

"Mi-chan."

I turned around and saw her eyes half-opened.

"Sshh.sleep now." I whispered.

"Good night.Mi-chan." she said, smiling. Closing her eyes, she turned and faced the other side.

I smiled and left the room.
