Chapter 6

(Next day after school)

Leighanne and Kouichi were waiting outside for Kouji and Izumi to come out. They were going to head to the mall and hang out before the dance in 2 days. The two opened the door and walked out towards the others.

"Well? Have you decided yet?" Kouichi asked his brother.

"Well, I know I can't wear my old costume, so I guess we'll have to get a new one." Kouji decided.

"Great! I know a great spot where we can find some good costumes." Kouichi said.

"What are you guys talking about?" Izumi asked.

"I'm going to find Kouji a costume for the dance coming up." Kouichi said.

"I thought you were going to be…what was that again…" Leighanne thought out loud.

"A pirate?" Kouji finished.

"Yeah!" Leighanne exclaimed.

"He didn't want to be that."  Kouichi rolled his eyes.

"Oh, fine time to be picky, Kouji." Izumi said. "With only a few days left until the party!"

"Just be glad he's wearing something." Kouichi said.

"Well, now that you mention it---" Izumi said.

"Izumi!" Kouji yelled, blushing furiously.

"I was just kidding!" Izumi laughed.

"Actually, come to think of it, my older brother has a few old costumes when he used to go to parties and also for Halloween." Leighanne said.

"Really?" Kouji asked.

"Yeah, if you want, you can come over and take a look at them, he won't be needing it and you're about the same height as him anyways." Leighanne said.

"Excellent!" Kouichi said, beaming.

"I—don't—really---" Kouji said.

"We don't really need to go to the mall. Do you want to check them out now?" Leighanne asked.

"Sure!" Kouichi said quickly.

"Uh, I guess." Kouji said.

"Alright, come on then." Leighanne said.

"Actually, I need to get home now. I'll talk to you guys later, ok?" Izumi asked.

"See you." Leighanne said.

The three of them walked to Leighanne's house, only a few blocks away from school.

"You guys sit here; I'll bring the costumes out." Leighanne said, walking into her brother's room.

"I wonder what kind of costumes he used to wear…" Kouichi thought out loud.

"Hopefully not something stupid." Kouji said.

A few minutes later Leighanne walked out with 4 or 5 costumes.

"Now, this one is one of my favorites." Leighanne said, holding up a blue, white, and gold costume.

"Oh! A prince!" Kouichi said.

Kouji cocked an eyebrow and looked the costume from top to bottom repeatedly.

"I guess I spoke too soon." Kouji said.

Kouichi covered his mouth to hold in a laugh.

"Let's see, there's Robin Hood-"Leighanne started.

Kouji looked at the feathered hat in disgust.

"Ok, and there's a princess-" Leighanne said.

"A princess??" the two boys said in unison.

"Oh wait, sorry, that's mine." Leighanne blushed. "Anyways, there's Zorro…"

"Do you happen to have any costume Big Bird? That was always Kouji's favorite." Kouichi said.

"It was not! That was your favorite!" Kouji said angrily.

Leighanne sighed and waited for them to stop arguing.

"No! Your favorite was Big Bird, MINE was Grover!" Kouichi retorted.

"I always knew you liked trash." Kouji smirked.

Kouichi glared at him and threw a pillow at his head.

"Here's a costume of a bunny." Leighanne said, changing the subject.

"I think he'll probably be Prince, don't you think?" Kouichi asked.

"Yeah, I thought so." Leighanne said. "Let me put the others away while you decide."

Leighanne took the other costumes back into her brother's room.

"Be a prince." Kouichi said.

"Well, I don't know." Kouji said.

"If you be a prince, you won't have to wear those weird tights." Kouichi said, holding up the other costumes.

"Good point." Kouji said.

"Have you guys decided yet?" Leighanne asked.

"Kouji's going to be a prince." Kouichi said.

"You'll be so adorable!" Leighanne smiled, taking the extra costume back, yet again, into her brother's room.

Kouichi glared at him. "Don't forget you're going with me."

"Well, it's so hard to tell you two apart, I might forget!" Leighanne said.

Kouichi had the look to kill, but Leighanne quickly said, "I was just kidding of course I'll know it's you."

"Maybe you shouldn't tell Izumi, so she won't know at the dance." Kouichi said.

"I guess that's a good idea." Kouji said.

The doorbell rang and Leighanne went to get it.

"Hey! It's Izumi!" Kouichi said.

"I finished my work at home so I decided to see how you guys were doing." Izumi said.

Kouji shoved the costume under the table.

"So what did you guys pick?" Izumi asked.

"He's going to be a–-mmmph!" Kouichi covered Leighanne's mouth before she could finish.

"He couldn't decide. We'll get one tomorrow." Kouichi said quickly.

"Oh, that's too bad." Izumi said. "It figures, you're so finicky Kouji."

Kouji rolled his eyes.

The doorbell rang again, and Kouichi got it this time.

"Hey Takuya!" Kouichi said.

"Just my luck." Izumi mumbled.

"Hey guys." Takuya said.

'Arg, what am I going to do, what am I going to do???' Izumi thought to herself.

Izumi sighed. 'Maybe I should just decide who to take right here, right now.' She thought.

Izumi took a deep breath before saying, "Um, Takuya?"

~End of chapter! Haha, should I really have ended it there?? I know this was short, but any longer and I wouldn't have had a cliffhanger! Next one will be up really soon, I promise, review! Catch u all later!
