Haaa...I just finished with my hell week! That's the week of my birthday
and as usual, everything didn't go as I wanted them to. ^^' Oh, and I just
had my hair cut...L'Arc~en~Ciel style!!! I'm really crazy right now because
our final exam is in 3 days. Well, bottom line is, I'm ALIVE!!! Ah, who
cares about that??? *dodges rotten tomatoes and other trash thrown by the
audience.* Hai hai! Tsudzukerimashou! One last chapter after this.

Rika sat on the roof of the main building of the school stopping herself from clawing at her painful brandished eyes. She dug her fingers on her brows instead, wanting to scream in agony...wanting to cry. She held back her screams but she had no tears to shed. "I..." she whimpered, "shouldn't have gotten...all fuzzy about...that." She released her brows and looked at her hands; it was as if a mirror reflected ringlets of light on her hands. Her eyes were still brandished but the pain subsided. Right then, she wished with all her heart that she could shed tears along with her dry sobs.
Sendou peeked around as he opened the door of the rooftop a crack. Hearing a human-like noise, he went through and followed the faint sobbing. As he neared, it suddenly stopped. He hurriedly rounded a corner and saw Rika there. "I thought it was you," he sighed.
Rika did not face him and sighed, "It seems you still know me that well after all these years. I'm surprised."
"Who in the world," Sendou shook his head as he came closer, "would ever forget you? Something's wrong, isn't there?"
Rika finally faced him and tried to put on a smile, "You notice even without seeing my eyes."
"I don't need to," Sendou laughed, "But is it anything you would like to share with me?"
Rika looked up thoughtfully and closed her eyes, "I was only being childish reacting that way at the end of the play. Actually, I was just embarrassed. I didn't need to storm out and well, curse."
Sendou unwittingly clenched his hands. "It's actually alright, you know. When your emotion gets over you, your heart will always be the first to react rather than your head."
She slowly opened her eyes and looked at her hand, they were not reflecting any sort of light then. "Thanks. I needed assurance." She let her gaze go toward him, "But since when did you become such a philosopher?"
"Since I had so many experiences," he answered, "Well, good that you're back to yourself now."
"Like what experiences?" she cocked an eyebrow at him in askance.
"One of them may be falling in love," he smiled at her, "You know...I can't control what I did just for her sake but, you know what happened in the end."
"Yeah," she nodded, "that's because you're homosexual."
Sendou gaped at her, "I'm what?! Where on earth did you hear that from?"
"Homosexual - a noun referring to a person somebody who is sexually attracted to members of his or her own sex; homo from the word...eh, it's a taboo. Anyway, and sex from well...sex," Rika answered smiling, "I heard that from the speech version of a computer dictionary."
"You know I don't mean that!" Sendou snarled, "Who told you that I'm bisexual?"
"Well, some guys are saying that you were two-timing your girlfriend and Koshino-san but you chose the latter over her." Rika giggled.
Sendou sweat dropped at what he heard, "And you're dense enough to believe that?"
"Well, can you prove otherwise?" she teased.
"You want me to show you what I have?" Sendou challenged.
"Iya! You pervert! I didn't mean that way." she yelped, "Besides, you can't prove it by doing that, can you?"
He shrugged and laughed, "I guess not."
Rika sneered at him, "Well, then. Any more tricks up your sleeve or would you leave me to believe it."
"You're so naughty, you know that?" the Ryonan ace rolled his eyes, "You don't believe it anyway. I know." he sneered.
Rika grinned, "Alright then, I'll just chide you until you do! And, I'll tell everyone I know." She gave a hearty laugh at that.
"You wouldn't do that," he glanced at her through the corner of her eye. She only nodded implying that she will. "No you won't." she did the same action. Their action went over and over again as if a disc keeps jumping on the player.
"Oh, you want me to start now?" Rika challenged as she brought out her cell phone. "Let's see, first we'll call..."
"Alright!" Sendou gritted his teeth, "What do you want me to do?"
Rika put a finger to her chin then smiled at him, "I don't know. You're the guy." Silence hovered over them for the moment and when Sendou didn't say a thing, Rika started again, "Oh, well, I think Rina should be the first to know."
Seeing that she really was dialing her sister's number, Sendou's eyes went wide and growled, "Hey! Stop that!"
She stuck her tongue out at him. "You can't make me!" she cooed.
Sendou tried grabbing the phone but she dodged faster that he could reach out. "You and your stupid abilities!" he complained.
"Ah! It's ringing!" she announced cheerfully, "And there is no way you can stop it! Bwahahaha!"
"Give it!" Sendou cried out.
"No. I have to tell." she argued stubbornly.
"Stop it!" he snarled back at her. As she continued chattering, he found himself lost in what he couldn't understand about her. She wasn't that beautiful but, somehow, she attracted him.
"Oh, Rina I want to tell you that Se-"
She was abruptly cut off as Sendou's mouth closed in over hers in mid- sentence giving her quite a surprise. His arms immediately encircled around her including her folded arms so that she could not fight back. He pressed his body against her so she could not gain any leverage and throw him off. He kissed her a little roughly as she struggled against him.
Her phone dropped from her hand in surprise and stared at him wide-eyed as she tried to push him away but it seemed to her that he had blocked up all her options quite fast. Still, she tried to struggle against him but somehow, not really wanting to escape from him...just wanting to put up a useless struggle for goodness knows what reason. Gradually, her eyes started to close and her struggling weakened to the point that she was only wiggling against him.
He felt her slacken and made his kiss to be gentler although his hold on her never slackened one bit. He feared letting her go - letting go of her soft lips, her lithe body and her warmth; all of her. Getting bolder, he traced and reveled her from the inside and finally felt her sag against him. He smiled involuntarily and slowly released her thinking that he can't ever possess the girl in his arms. He stared at her with her eyes closed which suddenly opened in surprise. He suddenly forced himself to speak seeing that she faced away from him. "I'm sorry about that. I know you were infuriated about that in the first place. I shouldn't have done that I know and I'll accept whatever I deserve."
"Tell me what you did that for." Rika said still not looking at him.
"I..." His mouth went dry. "I don't know why..."
"You didn't do it to shut me up?"
"Not really."
Awkward silence came between them and Sendou felt his heart racing long with his thoughts. 'She didn't hit me. Did she like that? Why isn't she speaking to me? Isn't she mad because I forced her? She usually is. Will I say it? Would I dare say it?' He looked at her and decided that it was then or never. "Rika, truth is I - I've wanted to do that for a long time now." He couldn't believe he was actually saying the words he wanted to. "I've always wanted you, not only as a friend...something more."
Rika sighed after a long pause, "If you hadn't said that, I probably wouldn't have known what I was feeling. What I'm feeling."
Sendou couldn't explain what he was feeling. It was pure bliss but then he wondered if she meant that she loved him too. "What do you feel exactly?"
"The same as what you feel." She smiled at him nervously.
Unable to control his actions, he embraced her once again and rested his head on her shoulder. "I never would have believed this. You don't know how many times I fantasized about this. Really!"
Suddenly, the forgotten phone rang. Sendou let her go and let her get her phone.
"It's good you hung up, you joker!" the voice from the other line said.
"What's wrong Rina?"
"After I hung up on you, I got a call. It's bad."
