Chapter 12 - Conversation with Yuki
Hahaha.. I am totally contradicting myself.. I said that I was bored of Tsukushi, Rui, Tsukasa love triangle and here I am.. writing a fic about that.. *sigh*
Soujiro: Yuki? Does that mean you will write about me.. for once? Tsukasa: *barges in* What did I miss? Soujiro: Nothing. *grins* I am going to be in this chapter!! With Yuki! Angel: Hahaha.. sorry to disappoint you.. But, the convo is between Tsukushi and Yuki.. Soujiro: What? Then when do I get a chapter about me.. *glares at Angel* Angel: Maybe later.. Tsukasa: What about me and Tsukushi?! Angel & Soujiro: *glare at Tsukasa* Shut up..
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Tsukushi sighed again as she looked blankly out the window of the dango shop. Yuki, after bowing to the last customer turned to look at her friend. "Tsukushi.. what's the matter with you today? It's been me who's serving all the customers.."
"Huh? Yuki.." she looked down, "Sorry.."
Yuki smiled, "Don't worry. I mean, after all, what are friends for? If you want to make it up to me.. you must tell me why you are unhappy!"
"Eitoku is such a crap school! I can't believe it.. Everyone there is an airhead. Even the teachers! All that matters is your wealth.. I had always thought it was such a great school.. the best in all of Tokyo. Renowned throughout Japan! I had dreamed to go to that school ever since I was young.. but now, I'm not too sure.."
"Tsukushi, you are soooooo lucky to be in Eitoku! It is something most of us only ever dream about.. like you when you were young. You are the strongest person I know.. I'm sure you'll do fine."
Tsukushi smiled at her friend's encouragement. Yuki had been her penpal for ages, ever since she had left Tokyo. They had contacted through email, letters and Yuki had even gone to Australia to visit her. It was Yuki who had found her this job at the dango shop. Yuki was one of her best friends, apart from those in Australia.. She was so sweet and helpful. "Yuki.. thanks."
"Sure thing! Now tell me the real reason why you're so moody.."
"It's just Asai and her bunch of snobby friends. I can't stand them sometimes.."
Yuki gasped in horror, "What did they do to you?"
"It's really not that bad really.. but their insults.." Tsukushi's face darkened, "And Tsukasa.."
Yuki gasped again, this time in shock. "What?! Are you talking about.. Doumyouji Tsukasa?!"
Tsukushi rolled her eyes, "Not you too.."
"He's richest 18-year old guy in Japan! And.." she swooned, "he's soooooo hot! So handsome.." she said dreamily.
At that, Tsukushi burst out laughing.
"What's so funny?" asked a confused Yuki.
"He.. he.." Tsukushi was out of breath from laughing, "that hair! You think he's handsome?! So curly and weird! I liked it better when it was straight."
"You mean.." Yuki's eyes widened, "His hair was straight?"
"Oh.." Tsukushi blushed, "Only when it's wet.."
"You've seen him wet?"
"Umm.. yeah.. it was raining.."
"You are so lucky Tsukushi! You get to hang out with the hot guys.." (Tsukushi rolled her eyes) "all those famous and rich people."
"who are all stupid idiots." Tsukushi finished. "Trust me.. You do not want to go to Eitoku.."
"Oh yeah.. and have you seen Nishikado Soujiro? I saw him once in a night club.. He is so cool! People say he's so romantic."
Tsukushi stared at her, she had stopped listening after the 'night club' part. "You've been to a night club?!"
Yuki gave a weak laugh, "Er.. yeah.."
"What were you doing there?" demanded Tsukushi.
"Nothing. I just passed by and err.. saw him in there. Let's talk about you. Are you dating anyone of those.."
"Those idiots? No way!" Tsukushi cried out in protest.
"Ok ok.." Yuki smiled, glad that the topic had moved away from her.. night club experience. "Made any friends then?"
"Friends?" Thinking about friends made her remember Makiko. She had lost a friend because of those stupid rumours about her and Tsukasa. Those bitches were going to pay.. But friends.. there was also Rui. He wasn't bad. She smiled, he was a nice guy. He was quiet.. but sometimes she liked being quiet too, she needed to rest sometimes..
"Why are you smiling? Ooooh.. thinking of someone special?" she teased lightly.
"What are you talking about?" Tsukushi blushed, "There is no one special.."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Makino once again stood outside Eitoku, taking a deep breath as she walked in. Today she would be strong. Tsukushi is a strong weed, I will not back down.. She strolled inside, a slight smile plastered onto her face. Once inside, she could hear the conversations of famous brands. "Prada. Versace. Elizabeth Arden." some words were in french, a language she barely understood. This was all just material wealth.. She sighed before making her way towards the emergency staircase again. Hardly anybody went there. There, she could be free. The only place in Eitoku.. she thought bitterly.
She pushed open the door and was surprised to find Rui sitting there. "Hanazawa-san?"
"Tsukushi."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Rui's P.O.V:
I sat there on the emergency staircase. Sitting and thinking. I had no idea why I was there. Something told me it was because Tsukushi was here last time.. something inside me wanted to meet her again. Why? Shizuka was coming back. There would be no need for another friend like Tsukushi.. no need for anybody. But Tsukushi interested me.. she was cute.
Suddenly the door creaked open. I looked with amusement at the look of astonishment on her face. "Hanazawa-san.." she stuttered.
"Tsukushi." I smiled at her. I was doing it again.. My smiles were supposed to be saved for Shizuka!! "Call me Rui."
"Rui.." she grinned, "What are you doing here?"
I shrugged. Honestly, I had no idea why I was here.
She laughed and walked over and sat down next to me. "Rui.. you are my good friend right?"
I nodded slowly.
"You.. you haven't heard any rumours about me have you?"
"Rumours?"
She breathed a sigh of relief, "Don't worry."
We sat in a peaceful silence for a while. Suddenly I felt her sit up, "Rui.. Do you thing there's anything you can't buy with money? Oh never mind.."
"Air." I replied.
A weird expression passed over her face and she left without saying a word.
Strange girl..

I know that the last part there was from the actual manga thingo.. but I will include some original quotes in it. But they may be said at different times..
Hope you liked the chapter!!
