Who Is He?
Okie disclaimer first! I don't own Digimon Frontier! I am only a fan who writes fanfics! Yes that was my disclaimer…pretty lousy but hey!
WARNING: DON'T READ THIS IF YOU LIKE JUNPEI! I MAKE HIM SOUND STUPID IN THE STORY. DON'T READ IT IF YOU LIKE JUNPEI!
Authors note: Okay Review of chapter one: Izumi is a bit snobby. Junpei likes Izumi. Izumi heard Kazu and his friend talk about her and she got pissed. She planted thumbtacks on their seats. She accidentally blurts out that she was the one who planted the tacks while asking Kazu who put a tack on her seat too. The whole class finds out Kouji was the culprit. His reason: Because she's spoilt and he knew it was her because she was so easy to read. Izumi is shocked.
Story continues from there.
"How did you know it was her anyways?", Amari asked.
"Because she's spoilt. Besides…" he said as he walked back to his seat and sat down. "She got guilty written all over her face."
Izumi stared at Kouji shocked and frustrated.
"He's good", someone whispered.
Izumi turned around to see that Junpei was the one who had said that he was good.
"Shutup! Junpei!", she smacked him on the head with a frying pan then turned to Kouji. "Hey! You!"
Kouji looked up and stared at her, his face unreadable.
Izumi realized that she didn't know what she was going to say. His eyes made her forget what she was going to say! But then she quickly thought of something else to say.
"This isn't over. I'll get you yet.", she whispered.
Kouji continued to stare at her but she gave him stare for stare. Kouji smirked and looked back down at his math book.
"Oooohhhhhhhh", the class chorused. "What'll happen next?"
"This is going to be good!", Kazu said gleefully.
The only people not happy about this were Ms. Akito, who was looking very angry and Junpei who looked like he would explode.
"DON'T TALK LIKE THAT WITH MY GIRLFRIEND!!!!!!", he screamed and running forward to attack Kouji with a ruler. **Me: hehehe what a freak!**
Kouji glanced up at Junpei. Unnerved.
Junpei tripped over something and fell flat on the floor. Everyone looked at Junpei and then at Izumi. Junpei had apparently tripped over Izumi's foot. "How many times do I have to tell you? I'm not your girlfriend?", Izumi said her eyes shut but one eyebrow twitching out of frustration.
"But…Izumi…I—", Junpei began but never finished because he was lying on the floor again but this time because of a bump on his head which was the result of Izumi's frying pan.
She felt the frying pan yanked out of her hand and turned to see Kouji holding it. He looked at her coldly and then threw the frying pan aside. Izumi was startled by his sudden action.
Kouji then walked back to his seat.
"What's with him?", Amari asked.
"I—I don't know…", Izumi replied.
"Alright class!! Enough drama for today!!! Sit back down…umm..er…first check for any thumbtacks on your seats.", Ms. Akito said shaking her head. "Today we're going to start learning about human evolution!! We have 10 chapters from your text book to get through!"
"Awwhhhhhh!", the class groaned
"Yay!", Junpei cried.
Izumi sat in her seat wondering what brought about Kouji's sudden act. She remembered the anger that was emitting from him eyes after he grabbed the frying pan from her. She forced herself to turn around and ask Junpei for an eraser so she could quickly glance at Kouji. She looked at him for a few seconds then turned around. Kouji was just sitting there watching Ms. Akito lecture about how humans were the smartest creatures on the planet and that if there are aliens out there then they should be impressed with their technology and superior intellects. Izumi hoped that if there were aliens out there then they wouldn't meet Junpei first out of all the humans on the Earth. She turned around again to give Junpei his eracer back and looked at Kouji again. Why did he act like that? Why was he so mysterious? Why did Junpei smell so bad? She shook off that last question and looked at Kouji again. This time Kouji looked back at her. She tried to look away but she couldn't. She was blushing and she knew it! Look away! Look away Izumi!! Shit!, she thought. Why couldn't she look away? Kouji just stared at her blankly then looked back to the front of the class.
"Orimoto Izumi! Would you please pay attention?", Ms. Akito said sternly. "What is so important that you have to ask Junpei??"
Some of the class snickered.
"N-nothing! I'm just giving him back his eraser.", Izumi replied.
"Well I've been watching you 'giving' him back his eraser for 2 minutes now.", Ms. Akito said.
"Ms. Akito!", Junpei cried.
"What?", Ms. Akito asked flatly.
"It wasn't Izumi's fault. She can't help staring at me! She likes me!", he cried.
Everyone looked at Izumi including Kouji.
"Oh brother!", Ms. Akito said as the whole class laughed.
"ERRR!! JUNPEI!!!!!!!!!", Izumi yelled.
"Please settle down class!", Ms. Akito yelled.
But the class kept on laughing.
"I SAID ZIP-IT! YOU STUPID DRIED UP CHILDREN!!!!!!!", Ms. Akito shouted.
The class quieted.
"She's freaking me out", Amari whispered nervously to Izumi.
"Yea…", Izumi said just as frightened.
**RING, RING, RING**
The bell sounded for lunchtime.
Amari and Izumi went to the schoolyard to eat lunch with a bunch of other girls. They sat near a huge cherry blossom tree. They chattered about what they were having for lunch, who they thought was cute, what anime shows they saw recently, what happened on Gilmore Girls last night, why they thought Junpei was a retard…they talked about the Junpei one for the longest time.
Then a girl named Mana said: "Hey what do you guys think about Kouji? I think he's pretty cute!"
"Yea me too" the girls all agreed except Izumi who looked at them like she would crack.
"WHAT??? HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT??? DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT HE DID TO ME DURING CLASS??", Izumi shouted. She said some other things too but I won't say it because little children might be reading.
The girls all giggled as Izumi shouted more insults about him.
Amari sighed. "Izumi calm down. We were just saying we thought he looks cute."
"Cute? Cute? I call little terrier puppies cute, I call shojo anime cute!, I'd even call Junpei cute…wait scratch that…I'd even call a boxed up hockey player with no teeth and bad attitude cute!**No offense to hockey! I love hockey by the way!** Kouji is not cute!!" , she shouted.
"Aren't you overreacting?", a girl named Sakura asked.
"OVERREACTING? What? I went easy on him when I said all that! If you wanna know how I really feel then I'll tell yah!", she shouted.
While all this happened Kouji was sitting the opposite side of the tree they decided to picnic at and heard everything Izumi said.
Kazu and some of his friends ran up to Kouji and asked him to come play run away from Junpei, a game they invented themselves.
Kouji said yes and ran off with Kazu.
**RING, RING, RING.**
The bell sounded that lunch was over.
The students went back inside.
Izumi sat down in her seat and found a note on her desk.
"Huh? What's this?", she said as she picked up the note. She read it quietly. "I love you Izumi. Will you marry me?" She just sat there for awhile and then turned around to Junpei who was smiling at her with his mouth open and shoved the note into his mouth. "Junpei don't annoy me.", she said and turned around.
She felt someone watching her and turned around to see Junpei staring at her, crying. She was shocked! Did she really hurt his feelings? Maybe now he'd get the picture.
Junpei leaned over and hugged her.
"Ohhhhhhh Izumi!! Our first fight!!", he bawled.
Izumi was sooo disgusted at this point and so she smacked Junpei on the head with a hammer.
The rest of the day went by pretty quickly. Ms. Akito announced that she had a project for them to do and they were going to do it in threes.
Izumi looked at Amari and Sakura and they both looked at her. They all nodded. It was settled they were going to be partners.
"I'm choosing the groups.", said Ms. Akito
"Why can't we choose?", Sakura asked.
"Because I'm the teacher and I say so.", Ms. Akito answered. "Alright. Here are the groups. Amari, Sakura and Kazu. Kari—"
"WAIT!", Kazu yelled. "I'm paired up with them?"
"Correct.", Ms. Akito said and continued.
Izumi couldn't believe it! Kazu was paired up with her two best friends? This was an crazy!
"Ms. Akito!", Izumi began.
"No you may not pair up with Amari and Sakura.", Ms.Akito said. "Kouji, Junpei and Izumi."
"WHAT?", Izumi cried.
"Huh?", everyone else said.
"Yay!", Junpei said gleefully.
Kouji said nothing.
"Noooo… Ms. Akito! We can't get along! You saw what happened today!", Izumi argued.
"Yes and that's precisely why you are going to be paired up…so you can all learn to get along!"Ms. Akito said. "And for my own personal amusement.", she muttered to herself.
*RING, RING, RING, RING*
School was finished.
Izumi walked to the school gate with Amari and then they split up because they lived in different locations.
She noticed Kouji across the street and ran to catch up with him.
"Kouji!", she shouted.
Kouji turned around to see Izumi running up to him.
"When do we get started on the project?", she asked.
"I don't know."
"Well we have to decide."
"Ask Junpei."
**Silence**
"Never mind.", Kouji said. "Just do it alone."
He turned to walk away but Izumi caught his arm.
"That's not fair!!!", she argued. "I can't do it alone!"
"Yes…you can."
"Err!! Why are you so mean to me?"
"I told you. You look spoilt. Now let go of me.", he said calmly.
"No I won't! Not unless you agree to help me on the project!"
"No."
"Your so selfish!"
"So?"
She glared at him angrily and let go of his hand.
He was about to leave when she muttered, "Stupid frying pan boy."
She turned around but he caught her hand.
"Don't talk about things you don't understand!", Kouji shouted.
She looked at him startled and realized that he was crushing her hand.
"Stop it!", she yelled. "You're hurting me."
Kouji finally let go and then walked off.
Izumi watched him go and looked at her hand.
"Who are you?", she whispered as he turned the corner.
What's with Kouji and frying pans? Well you'll find out later.
