Chapter two:
"Star light"
~~~~~ Bring bring!
Yui groaned. Her stupid alarm was going off. But, isn't it a Saturday?
Brrring! Brrring!!!
Saturday, huh? Miaka and the lunch thing. Typical Miaka...No, wait...
Brrrriiiiinng!
"Damn it! I'm late!!" Yui threw the blankets off and knocked the insistent alarm off of the table, still ringing. "I'm late! Oh, shit! Shit! Shit!!!" She tripped over the alarm clock and fell on the floor cursing like a sailor. She groaned.
"Why me?" She had woke up enough to not hurt herself or anything else worse then she already had. She threw a red sweater and a pair of blue jeans on the bed and quickly got dressed.
"Yui? Is that you?" Her mother poked her head in Yui's room.
"Mime mrate mrrom!" She managed through her tooth brush.
"Oh...Okay then dear. You might need to wear a jacket. It's really cold outside."
"Mroom! I muurm maarm miirlef!!"
"If you say so..."
Yui spit out the pasty substance in her mouth and ran presently out of her room. Her mother shook her head and went back to the kitchen. 'I do hope she remembers to call.'
~~~*~~~*~~~*
A boy with bright brown hair and blue eyes sat on the school steps trying to warm his hands. Where was that friggen girl at? He remembered what the teacher had told him. "Do whatever she says. I know you're new here but Yui is the head of the committee." 'Gee, don't I feel special," the boy thought ruefully. 'Why did I sign up for this stupid thing anyways? Oh yeah...It was this or detention.'
The boy looked up suddenly when he heard hurried footsteps. A girl with short blonde hair was running at him at top speed. "H-hello! M-my name's Yui...Hongo Yui," she said panting and holding out her hand.
The boy raised an eyebrow. "Are you okay?"
"Y-yeah." She retracted her hand seeing that he wasn't going to shake it.
"You're late you know. I've been waiting here for fifteen minutes."
Yui nodded still trying to catch her breath. "I know. I forgot. Sorry."
"Whatever." The boy stood up with his hands in his pockets. "So what do we have to work on?"
"Some silly-" She stood up. 'What the...?' Yui looked him over head to foot scrutinizing every inch.
"Um, what? Do I have something on my face?"
"You...Suboshi?" she said in a hushed whisper.
"Um, no. My name's Seichi."
Yui blinked. 'He looks just like him...No. No, Yui...He died. He's been gone for, what? Going on two years now...'
Seichi noticed a blush spread over Yui's face. The name Suboshi did ring a bell in his mind but he didn't know where he'd heard it from.
"So," he said trying to break the silence. "First we have to get the decorations right? What do you think we'll need?"
Yui snapped out of her thoughts and back into reality. "Uh....Probably paint, and some drapes would look really nice...Um..."
"I'm kind of...new here and I have no clue where to get the stuff. I guess we can get the stuff today and start working on it tomorrow?"
Yui nodded.
Seichi sighed. 'This is going to be a long day.' "I have my car parked around the corner if you'd rather..."
"Yeah sure." 'God's!! I can't believe the resemblance between the two! It's just uncanny! Maybe I'm just seeing things. Yeah. That must be it. It's not like I haven't done it before...'
He gingerly tossed his keys in the air. "You drive?"
"I don't like to. My mom scares me whenever she's in the car with me," she said while flicking small snow flakes out of her hair. They stopped in front of a bright-blue Mercedes.
Seichi gave her a small smile before opening the door for her. "Try driving with an insane brother."
~~~~~~~
Miaka frowned. Where was Yui? She was supposed to meet her and Taka two whole minutes ago! She felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Miaka, calm down. Keisuke just called and he says she left a message on the answering machine."
"And?" she asked practically bouncing out of her seat.
"She has a project to do." Taka sighed and closed his eyes in thought. "I guess that we should go ahead and start eating then-" He looked up to see an empty stool. "Miaka?" The sound of someone munching loudly near the all- you-can eat bar caught his attention. 'That's my baka...' He smiled a rye smile.
~~~~~~~~
The two teens drove to town to get the supplies for their project. Yui had a small list in her hands and was scribbling down things as they went.
"Pull in to that place right there," she said pointing to a art supplies store.
"Whatever."
"Boy, aren't we enthusiastic."
"Yes "we" are," Seichi smirked at her.
"Real funny." A bell dinged as they walked through the doors. The store wasn't exactly packed, yet there were still many people hurrying about. Yui shuffled through her pockets for a pen. "Okay, you take this list and I'll take this one. I'll meet you at the front desk."
"Umm..." Seichi laid his hand on his stomach. "I didn't have any breakfast this morning, so..."
Yui smirked. 'How many times have I heard that before?' she thought reminiscing on her friends escapades. "Sure. I was hopping to go to that little pizza place on the corner anywho. I also have to get some presents for my Santa so...after that we're going to a gift shop, deal?"
Seichi's face lit up with new incentive. He took the piece of paper from Yui and stuffed it gingerly in his front pocket. "Right, well, meet you up front. See ya!" He hurried to the paints isle immediately.
Yui smiled. 'I guess this project isn't so bad...' She watched him turn into the next isle and blushed when she realized just where her eyes had drifted to. 'One thing I can say, he has a cute butt. No Yui! Bad girl! Right, then, where are the flowers? Oh yeah!'
~~~~
Yui handed the cashier some money while Seichi grabbed a handful of bags and paint cans.
"Thank you and have a nice day." The lady smiled as she handed her the change.
Yui picked up the last few cans and started wobbling outside. With a large 'Ummph!' she hoisted one in the trunk of Seichi's car.
"You really shouldn't carry that much. Here, let me help..."
"No no! I'm fine!" She could barely lift one of the heavier cans that Sei had brought out.
Seichi sighed and placed his hands over hers. Sei's eyes went large. A memory that hadn't ever been in this life time flooded into his mind.
~~~~
"What's he doing?"
"It appears that Amiboshi, Suboshi's twin brother...has died." A cool voice rang in the boy's ears, but he didn't feel like telling them off. His head swam with sorrow for his borther...his aniki. He wa all he had...and now her was gone. The pain hurt so much that he was on his knees, shaking with sobs from crying.
"Died?! What..."
"It seems he was killed by the Suzaku warriors..." Was all he heard. So, it was true then? His beloved and only brother had died at the hands of...at the claws of a damned bird!! 'I will never forgive them...never!' was his only thought.
He heard a slight pitter-patter of footfalls on the hard tiles. "Leave me alone!YOU wouldn't understand!!"
A hand touched his shoulder. He winced and tried to pull away, but stopped immediately when he heard the calming, knowing voice he had grown fond of. "Really? I think I do...a little." He felt her encircle him as a mother would for her child. "Cry all you want...I'll hold you until you're finished."
The boy cringed, but he couldn't stop himself from falling victim to her embrace.
~~~~~~~~
"Sei? Seichi! Are you alright?!" Yui watched as Seichi shook his head.
"Y-yeah...just zoned out there for a minute..."
Yui furrowed her brow. "If you do that while we're painting you'll end up with purple hair."
'That voice sounds familiar...' "Um, have we ever met...before?" He picked up the forgotten can and hoisted it into the trunk.
"Um, no...Not really. W-why?" she half-lied, have-honestly asked.
Sei decided to just let it go. "Never mind. So, where are we going for pizza again? I could eat a horse!"
Yui giggled. "You know, you remind me of someone."
"I do?" Sei asked shocked. Yui didn't answer but instead flipped some snowflakes off her jacket and turned around.
"Come on."
Sei stared at her still confused, but obeyed. He locked his car and ran after her retreating form. "Matte!!!"
"You're too slow! See ya later!" She waved his request away and sped up to a run.
~~~~~
Sei gulped. 'God...did we have to come here?!' Seichi stood in the doorway to a semi-large Italian restraunt that was all too familiar to him.
Yui noticed his anxiety. "What's up? Something wrong?"
Sei shook his head. "Nah...I just...I'll be right back...You can order."
"Okay then...what do you want to drink?"
"Sprite."
"Okay." Yui watched him go toward the back of the store. 'Wonder what's wrong...He must just have to go to the bathroom.'
"Miss, may I take your order?" a plump waiter tapped his pen on a pad of paper.
"Sure." She pointed to an eight-slice pizza combo. "We'll have that with cheese and pepperoni, a sprite and...a sweet tea please."
He scribbled down the order hastily and smiled. "It will be out shortly."
'Which means it will take forever and a day naturally.' Yui decided to go to the arcade part of the store while she waited on the order. She put in her quarters in one game and pressed the start button. Nothing happened. Again, she pressed it, harder this time. Again, nothing happened. 'Damn machine!' She pressed it several times. In her anger she didn't hear or see someone put their hand on hers before it was too late.
"Um, do you need some help miss?"
Yui wheeled around and saw Seichi standing over her. "Oh! There you are. What was that all about earlier?"
Sei blinked a few times. "I'm sorry but I don't believe we've met before..."
Yui opened her mouth to protest but stopped. "When did you change your clothes?"
Seichi looked scarred now. "I've been wearing these all day." He motioned to his blue jeans and black sweater. "And the way you get this machine to work is to kick it." He gingerly stepped to the back of the machine and gave it a swift kick.
The game immediately started up. "H-how did you know that?! You told me earlier that you've never been here before."
"I used to work here, and I don't mean to be rude but I've never met you before miss."
"Stop calling me 'miss'! My name's Yui. Remember? Hongo Yui?" She was starting to get annoyed now. Why was Sei acting like he never met her before? "Oh I get it! You're just kiding me." She smiled.
Seichi shook his head. "No...I-" Yui grabbed his arm.
"Come on! The pizza's getting cold!" She literally pulled him back towards the table.
"B-but..." Seichi sighed and gave in.
"I ordered a pepperoni pizza I hope you don't mind."
Sei sat down in the chair opposite Yui and shrugged. "I-uh-I have to go to the bathroom...Be right back."
Yui frowned. "Didn't you just go a minute ago?"
"Uh...no.." He shifted nervously from foot to foot. "ListenI'llberightbackbye!" he said as quick as he could then ran towards the bathroom. Yui picked out a plate and started to pick up a piece of the gooey pizza. 'What in the hell-o is wrong with him? He was a little more relaxed earlier...and he at least pretended he knew me.' She thought, her frown deepening.
A shadow suddenly loomed over her from behind.
"Plan to start with out me Yui? Heh. And here I thought you had some manners!" It was Seichi with that same lopsided smile.
"Sei, is something wrong? Just a minute ago..."
"Oh that." He sat back down in his chair. "I had to go ask a friend something."
"In the bathroom?"
Sei blinked. "Bathroom? I never went to the bathroom."
Yui was utterly confused. Was it her or was this boy a total pain? And here she thought he was Suboshi! She rolled her eyes wearily. "Well, just don't do it again. And why do you keep changing your clothes?!"
"I never changed my clothes...Did you get a fever or something?"
Yui shook her head in defeat. 'I wish Miaka was here...She's at least got more intelligence than this guy.'
Seichi picked up a slice of pizza and looked around nervously.
Finally, Yui had had it. "What the hell is going on?"
Seichi turned back around quickly. "Oh, nothing...I think I do have to go to the bathroom...." Before Yui could say anything else, Seichi had headed back to the bathroom for the third time in less than twenty minutes. By now, the pizza was starting to get cold and they hadn't made much progress on the stage still. Yui started to wonder, yet again, why she had to be paired up with a small-bladder-incompetent-Neanderthal-boy.
She looked up from the table and saw him talking to one of the waiters. 'Fine. Be a butthead. I'm going home even if I have to walk! Screw the cold!Screw this project!!' Yui was to say the least, pissed. She grabbed her purse and her coat and started to get up from the table when Sei taped her on the shoulder. She yelped in surprise.
"Sorry about that...Yui right?" Yui narrowed her stare. "What's wrong?"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?!" She got right up to his face and poked him in the stomach. "Listen, Seichi, I may not know your last name, but if you want to get our project done, we have to-" Yui watched as Siechi started to smile. Then, smirk. Then, laugh. "What the hell is so damn funny?!"
Siechi doubled over with laughter. He pointed across the table. Yui gave him a questioning look then turned around.
"Um...Yui...Meet my brother, Sai."
Yui boggled. "Brother?" She looked back at the boy that was now just smiling at her with a knowing, yet gentle smile.
The said Sai extended his hand to her. "I'm really sorry about that. Our father works here. He owns this store."
"Then what was he doing?" She pointed at Sei.
"I was trying to find out where Sai was so I could introduce you to him." Sei chuckled a little. "But I guess you found him for me."
Yui rubbed her temples. 'This really is one heck of a day.'

^_^ Don't you just love the twin switch-a-roo? It's soooo much fun! I took so long to write that, but it was worth it!
I'm sorry to tell you all this, but for next week I'm going to be dead. I have exams so, I won't be doing the next chapter for about a week. Sorry to disappoint you all.
Oh, and by the way, do you guys think Amiboshi should find someone in this too? He had this crush on Miaka but I don't think that needs to happen.
Till next time guys!
