Author's notes: Before you begin, one of you was asking what 'Popular' fanfiction is. Popular is a TV show about the popular and unpopular people in school. Starring Carly Pope and Leslie Bibb. It's pretty good. It's one of my favorite shows. It's just so much like my school. Popular guys are always the better ones and if the unpopular ones do something, no one really cares about them. Then if the unpopular do something wrong, they should say goodbye to their social life or what's left of it. We should always try to fit in but trying so hard would also put us down to the geek and the weirdo class. Like my friend for instance. She's so... wait; she might be reading this so I should stop. Ok, peoples' social lives have nothing to do with my fanfic but don't you think I'm right? Popular people think they're better than everyone else is, or maybe not better, just higher. They decide what's cool and not and if you don't follow them, they tell the whole school not to make friends with you cause you're psychotic. So, if you agree, scream louder with me!!! (Sorry, I'm just so tired of seeing this in school. I just had to let it out)


A Matchmaking Documentary

Chapter 2
Kagero and Her Stalker

The next day in Kagero's restaurant...
Kaoru and Onaji were sitting down.
"Ok, for day two, we pay Tokiya-niichan a visit", Onaji said.
"It's your turn to interview him".
"Fine, but Kaoru, me and Tokiya-niichan aren't as close as you and him".
"So what? He knows you and you know him. Besides, this is your idea", just then Fuuko came in the restaurant.

Kaoru stands up and sits next to Onaji. Fuuko sits down where Kaoru used to sit down.
"Hi Fuuko-neechan!" Onaji greeted.
"Hi! What's up?"
"Me and Kaoru were just talking about our project, right Kaoru?"
"H-hai", Kaoru said feeling a little nervous.
"What's the project all about?"
"Sorry Fuuko-neechan, we can't tell you. It's classified information".
"Sounds huge".
"Not very, but it might be huge for you", Kaoru said. Onaji hits him with her elbow. "Ouch, what is it?"
"Are you trying to get us caught?" Onaji whispered.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, sheesh", Kaoru rubs the side of his stomach that Onaji elbowed.
"What do you mean huge for me?" Fuuko asked.
"He means our project might sound hard to accomplish for you. But it's really not a big thing for us", Onaji covered. Fuuko looked at them suspiciously then finally sighed.
"Alright, I'll buy it. Can I take a peek at it when you're done?"
"Maybe, it depends on how it will turn out".
"Ok, so where's Recca?"
"He went over to Yanagi-neechan's house", Kaoru answered.
"This early?"
"Yes, he said he was going to keep an eye on her and make sure the gorilla wouldn't touch her".
"What are you doing here anyway?" Onaji asked.
"I didn't have anything to do so I thought I'd drop by and help out around here".
"Broke?" Kaoru asked.
"Yeah, I need money".
"Why? What do you need it for?"
"I'm buying that new Destiny's Child CD, Survivor and the Eminem CD. I'm so tired of borrowing Recca's".
"You don't have Eminem yet? That was released centuries ago", Onaji asked.
"I told you, I was broke and whenever I decide to buy it I always see this new CD by some other artist and end up buying it instead of Eminem. But this time, I swear I'll buy it".
"Good luck, Kagero-san's in the kitchen", Kaoru pointed.
"Thanks, see you guys later", Fuuko waved and went in the kitchen.

In the kitchen...
"Kagero-san?" Fuuko called.
"Fuuko, what are you doing here?"
"I'm broke, I need some money so I was wondering if you can give me a job here".
"Sure, but what kind of job are you interested in?"
"I don't know. Anything that pays a lot".
"Well, we're a little short of waitresses. Will you take the job?"
"Yeah, I'll do it. How much do I get?"
"Nine hundred yen per hour. Is that ok?"
"Yeah, sure. Hmm... now let me see. If I get nine hundred per hour and work four hours a day, six days a week, hmm... Kagero-san, do you have a calculator I can borrow".
"Fuuko, why don't you count how much you will earn later and just serve some food?"
"Oh yes, gomen ne. I'm right on it", Fuuko takes some food.

Recca was sitting between Domon and Yanagi. He was watching Domon very closely.
"Let me get you two some drinks. What would you like?"
"Anything you are willing to offer me, I will accept whole-heartedly, Yanagi-sama", Domon answered.
"Oh yeah, why don't you go get him some water from the toilet, hime?"
"Recca-kun, I don't think it'll be very nice to let Domon-kun drink water from the toilet".
"I know, that's the idea".
"Oh yeah, if you're going to get me toilet juice then why don't you get Recca some of your hime piss to go with it?"
"Don't you talk to my princess like that you asshole".
"Oh yeah, then I guess teaching her to flip her finger is a very healthy way of communicating with your hime".
"I did not teach her to flip her finger".
"Then where do you think she learned that, Hanabishi-sensei?"
"I wasn't the only one and I didn't intentionally... oh just shut up", Recca starts to go red.
"And I suppose saying words like asshole in front of her is very respectful too".
"At least, I wasn't saying it to her".
"Alright, stop it you two. I've had it already. I'm so tired of watching you two fight when you come here. Recca-kun, why don't you go home and try to cool down?"
"Demo... hime".
"That's an order".
"H-hai" Recca went to the door and left.

Back in Kagero's restaurant...
The phone rings. Kagero runs to answer it. Fuuko stood nearby.
"Hello?" Kagero's eyebrows furrow. "Hello?" she puts the phone down.
"Who was it?"
"He hung up", Kagero's shrugs. The phone rings again. "Hello?" Kagero answered it again. "Hello? Who is this?" she hears a dial tone.
"Hung up again?"
"Yes", the phone rings again.
"HELLO!!! WHOEVER THIS IS YOU BETTER STOP CALLING US!!!" Fuuko answered the phone impatiently.
"May I talk to Yamagata?" he answered.
"Oh, sorry, wrong number", Fuuko said blushing. She put the phone down and went back to work.

Kaoru and Onaji were standing outside of Tokiya's house.
"This is it. Are you sure you wanna do this?"
"Of course, I'm sure. We've already started this. We can't turn back now"; she hands Kaoru the camera.
"Ok, good luck", Kaoru takes it and turns it on.

(On Camera)
"Hi! Kameko Onaji here! This is 'A Perfect Match' day two and we're here at Mikagami Residence, Sunday 3:00 pm. Today, our objective is to find out what's Tokiya-niichan and Fuuko-neechan's current status from Tokiya-niichan's point of view and what he thinks of Fuuko-neechan", they walk to Tokiya's window and took a peek at him in his room. "The very good looking man you're seeing right now is Mikagami Tokiya, 17 years old, 2nd year high school. Hobbie is studying. Which is the exact opposite of Fuuko-neechan. I'm going in to try to interview him", Onaji knocks on the door and Kaoru hides in the bush by the window. Tokiya opens the door and Onaji comes in. A few minutes later they go in his room. Onaji goes to the window and helps open it little so they can hear what they're talking about. "How are you today?"
"Good, what are you doing here?"
"Just to check up on you. Seeing if you're still alive".
"I thought that was Fuuko's job?" Tokiya said.
"What do you mean?"
"Fuuko assigned herself to be my official bugger. The others are all too busy to do that".
"Official bugger?"
"Yeah, she's the only one who actually cared if I was ok or not".
"So why does that bug you?"
"Because... well..." Tokiya starts to turn red. "Well... she keeps asking me if I'm ok and I don't need her to do that for me cause I can take care of myself. I know she's just doing it because she feels sorry for me and I don't need that either".
"So how are you two right now? Are you friends? Are you enemies? Are you good friends? Are you more than friends?"
"I don't know", Tokiya blushes again. "I don't usually make friends with monkeys. I don't make friends with anyone. I told her she was just wasting her time but she's such a stubborn girl. I admire her efforts and I do respect her fighting abilities too. Maybe, I can consider her a friend".
"Thank you Tokiya-niichan. I should get going now, bye", Onaji waved and went out.
(Off camera)

"What do you think, Kaoru?"
"That was great, maybe you really are on to something".
"I told you. They're a perfect match you just won't listen to me".
"Yeah, we might just pull this off".

Later that night...
Kagero closed up her restaurant and went out. She started walking in a dark street on her way home. She suddenly sensed someone behind her. She looked back but she didn't see anyone. She turned back thinking it was all in her mind but she heard some footsteps behind her. She looks back but she still didn't see anyone.
"I'm just tired. I should get home and rest", Kagero shook her head. She feels some one behind her again and she was really certain there was someone following her. She started to run. She heard someone run after her too. She ran as fast as she can until she got to the house.

She opens the door and slams it behind her. She was breathing heavily. She saw Recca come in from the kitchen with a really grouchy, upset look on his face.
"What happened to you?" Kagero asked.
"What happened to YOU?" Recca asked back. "You look like some guy had been following you but whenever you looked behind you, you wouldn't see anyone so you run as fast as you could until you got here", Kagero looked at him, wondering how he found out.
"How did you know?"
"I don't know".

End of Chapter 3

Author's Notes: Just to let you all know. I have classes again so I might not be able to update as often as before which ain't very often either. I'm really sorry but school comes first. You might've noticed that I'm an Eminem fan. He's just so cool!!! I wrote other fanfics about him too. Please check it out, it's called 'Being Stan'. Anyway, just watch out for the next chapter! (Disclaimer: I don't own Flame of Recca and its characters that I've used here or anything that I used in this fanfic that I can't possibly own. Please don't sue me) Please review!!! Peace!!!
