Millarna watched herself in the mirror as she smacked her lips together. Closing the raspberry lip-gloss cap she fixed her hair. Opening the girl's bathroom door she walked to her locker, using her little mirror on the door she watched Van talk to Gaddess "Hey thanks I'll see you there!" Gaddess said and ran off to class.

Well, well is Vanny going out somewhere. I so sorry Vanny wont make it! Van I'll get you no matter what!

"Hey Van! What's up?"

"Nothing hey I got to get to class." Van ran down the hall with his books. Millarna fumed as she stared at him.

He blow me off! How could he do that, I'm like one of the most popular girls in schools. She shook her head and riped the books for her next class out of her locker and stomped down the hall.

"Hey Van over here!" Hitomi waved to him. She always saved him a seat next to her at lunch. Kissing her on the check he sat down on the bench. Put his tray down Hitomi started to pick at his lunch "are you going to eat the rest of your pizza?" without waiting for an answer she grabbed the quarter that was left of his pizza and helped herself. Biting into the red crusty pizza she smiled and a pleasant look came on her face "how 'bout pizza for dinner?"

The table signed and groaned sure. "Good!" Hitomi cheered, clapping her hands then she jumped Van. When they rouse for the bench Van was covered in souse. "Great pizza it is for dinner!" Van said smiling and Hitomi giggled.

Millarna watched the little happy go fun table talk and Hitomi slobber all over Van. She grinned her teeth.

Why where they so happy? I said I would have him and I will damn it! Millarna slammed her hand on the table and the girls looked at her. She got and walked out of the lunchroom.

The bell rang as Millarna walked down the hall. As she got into her seat of her second to last class she watched Van as he walked in.

"Ok class, today we're going to start a new project. I'll pass around basket around to the girls and who ever they get is who they are with." Millarna leaned her elbow on her desk and placed her head in her hand. Signing she pick a tiny white folded paper and unfolded it. Her eyes light up and a smile appeared on her face.

"Alright, girls go sit next to your partner."

Millarna stood up and grabbed her books. Walking across the room she sat in her seat and slid her books under the science table that hand little tubes and 'mystery' liquids [ lol that's what my science teacher calls it .^_^].

"You and your partner are going to working for a whole two mouths and you will be researching things on your project."

The bell for the end of school and every one ran out of their class. Van walked up to Hitomi and kissed her on the lips "Now, When will we be having pizza tonight?" he asked her smoothly. "HEY VAN!" a voice yelled out form the crowd of people "Hey there you are Van oh hey Hitomi. We got to work on are project." She winked. Hitomi looked strangely at this then at Van.

"Oh, an we do that some other night? Its pizza night and I love pizza night."

"I wish I could but I cant tomorrow, I got to tryout for modern dance."

"Well what about after tomorrow?"

She gave him a look "Silly we got to hand in a paper in tomorrow!"

Hitomi glared at them and frowned. "You know Van we can have pizza tomorrow. You go do your paper, or WHATEVER it is!" Hitomi walked over to Gaddess.

"Wait Hitomi!" she waved him off and opened the door and walked out school door. "Ok let's go." He signed.

Hitomi walked down the sidewalk with Gaddess "what was that in there?"

"What was what?"

"She was winking and stuff and so flirty!" Hitomi almost yelled.

"Well that's because she wants Van and she cant have him but she is right now because you let her!" a girl screamed at Hitomi from behind her.

"Yukari! You want some pizza tonight or I'll be all alone?"

"Hey no you changed your pizza day?"

"No I just told him I would changed but I did not say I would." [I love that from the cat in the hat]

"What?" they both asked looking confused.

"Nothing so yes or no?"

"Oh Van can we get some pizza her, after all I did make you change your pizza night?"

"Sure I guess."

"Good!" she jumped up and down. They sat down and ordered two slices.

Hitomi walked to the door and put her jacket on and yelled to Yukari "Hey I'm going to get the pizza you stay here."

"Ok hurry I'm hungry!"

"Ok, be back later."

Opening the door she ran down street there was a small pizza place only three blocks down from her house. She stared to walk and look up at the clouds and watched her breath in the cold heavy air.

'~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~' '~*~'

Van sat at the window seat and Millarna sat across from him. Their pizza came nice and hot. "ok so what is are paper about?"

"I don't know!?"

"What! I blow off pizza night!"

"but your having it with me are you not?"

"But that's not the point!" he ripped the pizza out of his mouth getting sauce on his check.

Laughing Millarna said "Chill I'm joking, you got some sauce here." She pointed to her check.

Hitomi sniffed the air and smiled. "yummy pizza-!" Hitomi froze the air became ever colder, turning into ice and broking just like her heart. Time froze as she stared at the pizza window. Hitomi turned her head choking down the tears that came to her eyes and ran home.
