CHAPTER 7/ Kisses, but not under the misletoe

::Aki's POV::

I saw Ray at the dance club, hanging out with MIchelle. He was

watching me drink for a while, so I left without saying a word. If he

doesn't want to talk to me then fine.I just wish he would remember!

Margarett kept trying to cheer me up, but it didn't work. So I went to

the dance, and I asked Old Joe to put a couple drops of alchohol in

my ice tea to get my mind off of things.I don't drink, but I really

needed a little of it at the moment.It was a little too strong, and my

heart started acting up when I was walking home.I colapsed on the

ground, and passes out.

When I woke up I was in my bed, and it was saturday. I did some

usual chores, and went to the library to kill some time.I couldn't

believe how fast Monday arrived.

*************************************

"Class listen up!"Our teacher shouted."We will have a dance

tommorow!You may dress as you wish, just as long as it is

apropriate.No see-through tops or skirts......"And he went on with the

list.Basically we weren't supposed to reveal out private parts.

Everyone was exited about the dance, but Margarett was sort of

upset. No one had asked her to dance before, even if some guys did

like her.I cheered her up a little and she wasn't so worried anymore.

*************************************

As I walked into our humongous gym, music boomed everywhere.I

wore the same clothes that I wore to the dance club, and I leaned

against the wall as usual.I spotted Margarett sitting on the bench.I

didn't walk over, and she new exactly why.I hated sitting. Instead I

walked over to the drink counter, and guess who I bumped into?

That's right, Raymond.

"Watch where you're going!"I shot at him.

"Gee sorry."He shook his head sarcastically.

I pulled down his shirt so low that his face was about five

centemeters from mine.

"Don't mess with me."I growled, and let go.

Ray was a little stunned.He didn't expect that from me.

I stormed away.

::Ray's POV::

Aki really suprised me with that stunt.She must take karate or

something, because she was real quick!Michelle pulled me into the

dance.It was a slow dance.I wrapped my arms around her waist, and

she placed hers on my shoulders.She planted a kiss on my lips, and

rested her head on my shoulder. I saw her look at the wall. I looked

and saw who she was looking at.Aki. She was leaning against the

wall watching us closely, but when she saw me look, she looked

away.I saw Malikai walk near her, and they started talking

and for some reason, I felt jealous.

::End::

::Aki's POV::

I was suprised to see Margarett wear a short skirt!She never wore one

like that, and especially the boots, really amazing for Margarett.She

was probably expecting something out of it.I hope she got her wish.

Mailkai walked up next to me, and leaned in an identicel position as

me.

"You're copying me."I smiled.

"So what?"He smiled back.We laughed.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Ray watching us closely.I wanted

to turn around, stick my tounge out at him, and say "You don't even

have friends this great, so what are you looking at?'', but I

remembered that Malikai told me that he knew Ray, so it was a

whole different story.

"Well...."I started.

"Well what?"Malikai asked.

"Aren't you going to ask anyone to dance?"I asked him.

He looked at me.

"I'm not talking about me, someone else."I turned my eyes to

Margarett.

He instantly blushed.

"But.."He stammered.

I cut him off.

"Go to her now!She can't find out that you like her if you just keep

ignoring her.You hide feelings too well."

"Um..okay, I'll give it a shot."He bit his lip, and breathed in.

::End::

::Malikai's POV::

I walked slowly to the bench that Margarett was sitting on. She

looked so peaceful and quiet, sitting down, gazing at the dancing

couples.

I walked right in front of her.Stupid thing to do.She looked beautiful,

and really sexy.She was wearing a blue jean tight shortskirt, and a

jean jacket up to her belly button.She was wearing long black leather

boots, and a black short top.Her shoulder-length, silky hair was tied

into pigtails, and she was wearing a jean berret.(the type most teen

girls wear)

She looked up at the sight of me, but didn't lose confidence or

anything.

"Um..can I sit here?"I asked pointing to the empty chair next to her.

"Sure."She shrugged.

"Nice of the school to make a dance, isn't it?"I tried to start another

conversation.

"Yeah, it's uh..really..pretty.I like watching the couples dance so

peacefully, and I wish...."She laughed."I wish that I was one of

them."She realized she was talking to me, and blushed.

"I know what you mean.Your friend Aki has a really big attitude,how

come she doesn't want a boyfriend? She has good looks, she just

gotta lighten up."I did my best to keep the converstation going.

"She's...waiting for the right one, I guess.And its probably because of

her style of living.It's really difficult trying to live while being

different from everyone."

"Like you?"I asked.

"Yeah, I guess."

A new slow dance started.It's now or never, I told myself.

"Umm..Margarett?"I asked.

She looked at me.

"Do you want to dance?"

She blushed a little.

"Yeah, sure."She answered.

We walked into the crowd, and I wrapped my arms around her body,

and she placed hers on my shoulders.She layed her head down, and

closed her eyes halfway.The dance was almost done.I decided it was

time.

"I love you Margarett."I whispered in her ear.

There was a moment of silence, and I realized I had done something

really wrong.She probebly hated me now.But then she responded.

"I love you too."And I kissed her.

**************************

Too much romance, do you think i shoud rate this fic PG or

something?Anyway, I was looking through my japanese notes, and i

found that Aki means fall(season).Pretty wacky.Thanks for reading,

and I'll see you in the next chappie.
