Twists and Tears

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Not a one thing. Except the plot. And my friend VirtualFaerie owns the phrase: "Gods" So don't shoot me! Especially with a gasoline filled water gun and then throw a match!
(A/N: Okay. This is the second chapter of my story. I'm sorry that I went over a week in between postings. I got behind on typing. ^_^ There isn't really much to go on about so go ahead and read. And review! Always review!!!)
I opened my eyes to the harsh sunlight that was filtering through white curtains. 'I don't ever remember having white curtains...' I thought groggily. 'Oh yeah. I'm at Julia's house.' I yawned and tried to stretch my limbs but I found myself pinned down by something.
I looked to my left and blurry face greeted my sleep-fogged eyes. I yelped and nearly jumped backward trying to escape it. Or at least get it far enough away so that I could see it clearly.
As I moved, Jin's arm dropped from it's spot around my shoulder. I rolled sideways to get out from under Jin's leg as well. "Geeze..." I grumbled as I sat up.
I looked over at Julia, who opened her eyes and smiled warmly down at me. "Hi." She said with a yawn.
"Hey." I murmured, sounding a tad drunken.
"What's wrong?" She asked as she sat up.
"Nuttin. I gotta pee." I said as I stood up.
As I walked, I nearly tripped over Jin first. Then had to press myself up against a bookshelf to keep from trampling Miharu.
Julia laughed.
"Shut up." I said, but smiled too.
I went into the bathroom and did my hair. Surprised I didn't look like Diana Ross or something. Then I did my business and returned to the bedroom.
"OK now I gotta go!" Julia said as she sped past me.
I went and sat on Julia's bed. My eyed rested on Jin. He looks like an innocent angel when he sleeps. I tilted my head a little as to take in more of Jin's beautiful appearance.
He was wearing a white shirt and blue pajama pants. 'I'm glad he wore a shirt but on the other hand... I am NOT glad he wore a shirt.' I thought with a grin.
"Beautiful 'n 'e?" Julia said from the door.
I turned around to face her but all words escaped me and I just sat there.
Julia walked over to her bed and sat down beside me.
"You have a crush on him, don't you?" She asked with a little squint in her eyes.
"No."
Julia wrapped her arms around me and patted my back. "Geeze, Xiao. So THAT is what's this has all been about."
"What are you talking about?" I said, pushing her away gently.
"Well, you've been really... bitchy lately. Ever since Jin and I have been together as a matter of fact."
"But you've been going out for nearly a month now."
"I know."
"Don't you think that's weird for me to like him though?"
"No. I know you won't act on the way you feel about him. Number one, because you're my friend. And number two, because you're to chicken." She said with a devilish grin,
"Shut up." I said. And gave her a playful shove.
"C'mon. Ya hungry?" Julia asked, standing up.
"Yeah." I said. Following Julia out the bedroom door.
"What do you want to eat?"
"Hmm... Steamed buns." ^_^
***
"The answer is... X equals 72." I said rather proudly.
"Correct. Very nice, Ling." Said Mr. Tomahai with a smile. "Keno, the next one, please?"
Keno looked like an abused puppy. "I... didn't get that one..."
The class laughed softly and Mr. Tomahai gave him a sigh. "Mr. Kyoto, Ling shaped up and did her homework. Why can't you?" He marked yet another zero for Keno's grade in his teacher's grade keeper book.
Hwoarang rolled his eyes at his crony and smacked Keno's shoulder from the catty-cornered seat to his.
"Yeah, man! Ling shaped up! Do your work!"
"Mr.-err-Hwoarang, what did you get for number 12?"
Hwoarang slouched in his seat and crossed his arms. "It's not my turn yet." He said smugly.
"Well, then we'll start from the end of your row. Julia is absent so it IS you turn."
Hwoarang scowled. " The answer is: x equals 2."
Mr. Tomahai's eyebrows shot up. "Well. Seems you DO want to pass my class, Hwoarang!"
"Yeah yeah yeah..." Hwoarang grumbled, slouching lower in his seat.
"Remove those goggles, sir. You know that is against dress code."
Hwoarang's head lolled at Mr. Tomahai a minute and then he decided to mind the teacher THIS time and he took his forest green goggles off the top of is head.
A downpour of fiery orange enveloped Hwoarang's handsome face and he glared with pure hatred at Mr. Tomahai through it. "I'm never going to school again..." He mumbled.
"What was that?"
"Nothing!" Hwoarang spat.
Mr. Tomahai turned away.
'His hair is so beautiful...' I daydreamed. Of course, I was stating the obvious. Everyone thought Hwoarang had the most outrageous hair ever set strand in this school. The faculty was always borderline of letting him keep it that way. No one ever complimented him on it though, because he did that enough himself. That's just about all he talked about: Money, his bike, and himself. Which didn't do so well for his image. Sure he was a bad ass and he's not alone, but his attitude sets him apart from all the others. He's beautiful and he knows it and he's not modest at ALL. Most girls had a major problem with that. That's why he had to settle for a girl like Shanyo. She was always getting kicked out of school for drinking at it or coming to school drunk. I don't think I would mind his attitude that much. And Miharu LOVES him. 'He must not be all that bad...' I thought, letting my eyes sweep up and down his slender yet muscular body.
I looked over at Miharu. She was in love with Hwoarang but she's to self conscious and shy to tell him. She nearly fainted when Hwoarang announced his freshly being available at lunch today. 'Maybe their attitudes would cancel each other out...' I wondered with a smile.
I wish he'd where his GI more. I've seen him practice and fight in it during the tournaments in his white GI. He looks a lot better with his headband rather than goggles. ^_^ Wait. Since when do I care about THAT arrogant twit? I don't. I only have room for one guy in my heart: Jin.

"Gods! Math sucks!" I cried out, pressing my head into my pillow. I tried to stay that way but then I wanted to breathe.
"What, honey?" My mom said from my door. She was wearing her apron and holding a large wooden spoon. The smells of chicken and fried rice whofted to my nostrils.
"Nothing, Mom. When's dinner ready?" I said, rolling over to face my mother.
"When it is. Now work." She said, using her spoon to point at me for emphasis.
I groaned and flopped onto my bed. "Shut the door, please." I said, but she had already left. I heaved myself up and slammed the door. "Fuck you." I murmured as I jumped back on my bed again.
My emachines computer stared seductively at me. "No. I must work." I told it.
I got up yet again and walked wearily over to it. I pressed the small green button in the center of the tower and pulled out the desk chair.
The small green light at the base lit up, brining the computer to life. My desktop appeared and all the icons came together in their usual places. My computer was ready for the world.
I sighed and sat down softly, as to not make the old chair squeak. I clicked on the AOL 8.0 icon and waited for it to set up. "Maybe Jin will be on..." I murmured.
The modem connected and a cheery: Welcome! Burst from the speakers. I quickly turned them down and looked at my door.
My buddy list popped up and sure enough, the screen name: "Blackwings" was present.
I clicked n it and typed: "Hi, Jin!" In the box.
"Hey." Came his reply.
Xiao0203: What are ya doing?
Blackwings: Feeling shitty.
'Ooh. Jin cussed!' I thought.
Xiao0203: Why?
Blackwings: I broke up with Julia
Xiao0203: WHAT? WHEN?
Blackwings: Before I left her house today.
'Man, I knew I should have gone over there too.'
Xiao0230: Wow. That was kinda sudden.
Blackwings: She's just too much for me now.
Xiao0203: Oh.
Blackwings: I'm coming to your house, ok?
I quckly typed: "You can't!" And pressed enter.
A window popped up with the massage: Blackwings is not currently signed on.
"Oh no!" I said as I logged off.
I stood up and paced the floor, trying in vain to think of something. I went over to my window and opened it from the bottom. There is no way I was going to let him knock on the door when he came.
I ran around and picked up some dirty clothes and tidyed my desk a tad.
About ten minutes later, I saw Jin walking down my street with his hands in his pockets.
I stuck my head out and called to him. He looked over at me and began to cut across the gras to my window.
I backed up and allowed him to heave himself up and into my room.
I stood with my hands on my hips and my brow lowered in dissaproval at him.
He gave a weak smile and took a step toward me. "Ling, I'm sorry." He whispered. He closed the space between us. "I just... I need you now."
My eyes widened as he wound his muscualr arms gently around me.
Mine were kind of trapped so I just stood there in mild shock. I just decided to let hi to whatever he wanted to do if he felt bad. It's no like I minded at ALL.
He moved his hands up to my shoulders and oushed himself away.
"Ling," He said. Looking deep into my eyes.
"Yeah?" I asked, eyeing him wearily.
"I broke up with Julia."
"I know." I said, slightlu shifting my eyes.
"Do you know why?" He asked.
"She's annoying?"
Jin gave a light chuckle and shook his head no. His eyes looked so meaningful and I tried not to think the thought that I was thinking.
Jin leaned in and the next thing I knew, the happiest moment of my life occured.
