An invitation for Xiaoyu!
" I allways knew looking back on my tears would make me laugh, but I never knew looking back on my laughter would make me cry."
It all started one week ago... We were at Jin's seventeenth birthday party. He invited us all to go and spend the night at his house. But only me, Xiaoyu, Hwoarang (don't ask me how!), Steve, Christie, Miharu and Eddy could stay there for the night... Eight o'clock p.m...
Jun Kazama: We will be going now. Jin... Be careful and take care of the mansion, will you? You and all your friends.
Kazuya: Yeah.... And if someone touches in my Dragon Ball figures collection, there's going to be blood when we get back!
Jun: You be good! Bye!
Jin (trying his best to look innocent): Bye!
Steve: I still don't understand how your parents let you have this party without them supervising, dude!
Jin: They trust me! I'm a grown man!
Lee: Now... Who wants to play "truth or dare"?
We all stare at him and start laughing.
Hwoarang: Truth or dare? That's childish!
Lee: I beg your pardon? Oh, I see... You are all scared about this game, are you not?
Kunimitsu: Man... Get a grip on yourself! I mean, truth or dare?
Anna: No, no! He is right... Let's play that! I want to hear some confessions! And, since we have nothing to do in this boring party!
Christie: Hum... If it's boring, why are you even here?
Xiaoyu: Don't start an argue! Ok... That game it's not childish! Come on you guys, let's try! If we get bored, we stop!
Jin: Fine, then!
Bruce Irvin: Ok, So who's starting?
Eddy: Oh! Let me start! I have a question for Christie!
Christie (blushing): Go on!
Eddy: Do... you want to go with me to the Christmas dance?
We all look at Christie's red face.
Kunimitsu: That's not a real "Truth or dare" question!
Eddy: Shut up! Let the girl talk.
Christie: Gee... Hum... sorry... Steve asked me first!
Eddy: Oh Isee... That's ok, anyway!
Christie (smiling brightly): This one is for my dear Julia... Have you ever been in love?
Me (wasn't expecting this...): Hum... Yes, I guess...
Christie: So? Who was the guy?
Me: That's another question!
Jin: It doesn't matter, you can answer it!
Me: You wish! That one is for another time! So... Anna, why do you hate me?
Anna: Why do I hate you? Simple! I don't like girls like you! Who think the world spins around them!
Me: But that's not true! I'm not like that!
I'm not, really! Why does she has that idea? I mean... I think she's the one who thinks that way! That's the good thing in writing in diaries... I can write this stuff and no one is going to read it, ..... right...?
Anna: Yeah sure! Steve Fox! Are you a virgin?
Steve (really embarrased): ......
Anna: So?
Steve: You know? This game is boring, do you want to do something else?
Anna: We are waiting!
Steve: This is really boring dudes... I quit!
Hwoarang: You can't quit now!
Marshall Law: Yeah! Wewantananswer!
Steve (his cheeks reder than a tomato): ......
Miharu: What are you waiting for, Steve? Are you a virgin or not?!
Steve: Ok, ok! I'm not! But I'm sure I'm not the only one here!
We all look at each others and cough...
Miharu: I can't blieve it! Steve! When...?
Steve: I won't answer more questions!
Me: You know what? I think we should end this right now...
Christie: Hum... No way! Everyone has to say one confession, now! Unless, it's unfair for the ones who said one already!
Steve: I agree! Jin, I heard you were caught naked in a public pool once, is that true?
Jin (looking angry): Xiaoyu? You told?
Xiaoyu: Well... eh, eh! I might...
Steve: So, it's true!
Jin: Yeah, but it was because some girls took all my clothes while I was taking a shower!
Hwoarang (laughing): What a joke!
Jin: Oh yeah? I have one question for you! What was a Pokemon book doing inside your bag the other day in school?
Hwoarang: Po... Pokemon book?!
Jin: Yes! And don't tell us it's not true because I saw it with my own eyes!
Hwoarang: I... I like Pokemon, so what?
Lee: Boy... And they say this game is childish!
Hwoarang: You open your mouths and I'll introduce them to my fists! Lee, what's your ideal woman?
Miharu: Here we go, with guys talk!
Lee: Che... Let me see... Tall, blonde, I like blue eyes and... That's all!
Hwoarang: ....... Ok...?
Lee: Bruce, I saw you with a bouquet of daisies the other day, do you have a girlfriend?
Bruce: No... They were for me mother!
Lee: Huh? Ooohh...
Bruce: What?! But I had girlfriends before! Paul, what's your favourite teacher?
Paul: Gee... Tough question! I don't know... Nina! Yeah, she's hot! Ok, so Xiaoyu. Will I ever have any chances with you?
Xiaoyu: Pfuit! I don't think so! Miharu, would you sleep with a boy that you met for just two days? I mean, if this guy was totally sweet with you!
Miharu: Well... It depends, really. I would if I trusted him and if I knew he was a great person who respects me and trusts me too. And I wouldn't if the guy was a little weird, I don't know... But I believe that to have an advanced relationship with somebody we know, regardless the time we know that person, we have to get to know each other pretty well to sleep together, because it's important for everybody to know with whom are we sleeping, right? That's what I think!
Xiaoyu: .... Right....
Miharu: And for you Kunimitsu... What would you do... if you knew that Paul had a crush on you?
Paul: Hey! I don't-
Miharu: Shut up!
Kunimitsu: I would beat him up! Duh! And the last question goes for Marshall! A part from the restaurant you want to open years later, what would you like to do?
Marshall (thinking): ....... Be a cop!
Me: Ok! So everyone got the chance to confess something! Can we stop with this game now?
Jin: Sure! Let's go to... the dance floor! Pick your partner and... Let's dance! I'll turn the music on!
Nine p.m. On that moment I sat on a chair, watching them, It's not that I don't like to dance... The truth is... I can't dance... I want to go to the "Christmas dance" and I can't dance! Perfect! Oh, but I will learn in time, I swear I will! So I didn't want to make a fool of myself there. I stared at Jin and Xiaoyu dancing... How could I be so blind! One hour dancing... I mean for them, of course!
Jin: So... Julia! Why don't you join us at dancing?
Me: Because I don't want to!
Jin: Don't tell me you can't dance!
Me: Of course I can!
Jin: So, how come your not danc-
Me: Leave me alone, will ya? I told you I don't want to dance!
Jin: Fine!
Then, he picked my hand and pulled me close to him. His hand on my waist, his arm stretched forcing my arm. He started swaying dragging me with him. Did I mention , that I HATE JIN KAZAMA? I felt that everybody was watching us. Jin trying to dance with me, but I was allways steping on his feet and tripping. Anna laughed along with Lee.
Me (pulling him away from me): Stop it!
Jin (staring at me with a "what a joke!" look): Hey! Hum...
Me (whispering): You had to embarass me in front of them?
Jin: Guess... You did it yourself!
Me: You're an idiot Jin!
Jin: You know? There's people who receive "Happy Birthday" and "Best wishes" and "I hope you'll be happy" in their birthdays not "You're an idiot!"
Me: Gee... Maybe that happened because you are really an idiot!
Bruce: Well Jin! Great party but I have to go. See ya!
Marshall: Me too! Byebye!
Kunimitsu: I have to go too... Bye everybody! See you Monday!
Anna: We'll be going too, right Lee? I never laughed so hard before!
Lee: Bye!
Paul: eheheheh! See ya!
Jin: You see? You scared them! You made them leave!
Me: Really? It was your fault! I told you I didn't want to dance!
Jin: Yeah, but you didn't told me you didn't know how to dance!
Me: I don't have to tell you a damn thing about my life!
Jin: You could have avoided their departure!
Me: And you could have avoided all this scene! Now everybody is going to make fun of me!
Jin: Can you stop thinking about yourself for a moment? Shit!
Miharu: This has gone too far now! Come on you two! It's enough.
Jin and me: He/she started!
Steve: Ok, ok! Peace dudes! We're in a party not in a fight club!
Xiaoyu (trying to make the things better): Listen this music everyone!
Days swiftly come and go.
I'm dreaming of her
She's seeing other guys
Emotions they stir
The sun is gone.
The nights are long
And I am left while the tears fall.
Jin looked at me and walked away. I sighed...
Did you think that I would cry,
on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like,
being alone?
I'll find someone new
Steve: Are you ok?
Me: Yeah, I am. He's a jerk!
Steve (kidding): Yeah, he is!
Swing, Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again.
Xiaoyu: I think you were a tiny little harsh, don't you think?
Me: Who told him to force me dancing? Do you think I should go away?
Wish cast into the sky
I'm moving on
Sweet beginnings do arise
She knows I was wrong
The notes are old,
They bend, they fold
and so do I to a new love.
Xiaoyu: No, but you should apologise!
Me: He has to apologise first!
Did you think that I would cry,
on the phone?
Do you know what it feels like,
being alone?
I'll find someone new
Miharu: You two will hate each other or love each other!
Me: I think it's the first one!
Swing, Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again.
Maybe Jin is right... But I told him I didn't want to dance, why did he forced me to do it? I truly have to stop thinking about myself... I felt so bad that night.
Bury me
(you thought your problems were gone)
Carry me
(away. away, away...)
I looked over at Jin, he was looking back at me but looked away the second after.
Swing, Swing, Swing from the tangles of
My heart is crushed by a former love
Can you help me find a way
To carry on again.
Ok, ok, I wrote the music lyrics because I like the song!
Hwoarang: Hey! Do you want to dance?
I glared at him.
Hwoarang: I'm kidding! Here.
He handed me a pepsi that I drunk fastly making him look at me and gasp.
Me: What?
Hwoarang: Do you want another one?
Me: Yeah! I'll go get it!
Hwoarang: No, no! Allow me!
Me: Thanks! You're an angel!
Hwoarang: I'm not!
Fifteen pepsis later...
Jin: Xiaoyu and Julia, this is your room. Miharu and Christie that's your room. I'll stay with Steve in that one and Hwoarang with Eddy in that one! All the rooms have two beds.
Xiaoyu: Ok, goodnight!
Me: Goodnight!
Inside our room...
Xiaoyu (sighing): Neither you and Jin apologised...
Me: It's going to be difficult for that to happen...
Xiaoyu: You two are so stubborn! How can you two act like that? Shame on you, shaaaaame!
A sudden knock on the door while we were changing to our pyjamas... Hwoarang entered anyway.
Hwoarang: Hi!
Xiaoyu (half naked): GET OUT OF HERE NOW! YOU MORON!
Hwoarang (looking away and half closing the door): Sorry! Sorry! I just want to say something to Julia. I thought you were dressed...
Me: It's ok, now! What is it?
Hwoarang: Listen, I just want you to know that Jin is a jerk and I'm at your side!
Me: Gee... Hwoarang thank you!
Hwoarang: ok... Then, Good night!
Me: Good night!
I couldn't sleep that night, just because of what happened! The next morning all of us were up but Steve, who kept sleeping.
Miharu: Steve! Wake up! WE are all going to have breakfast together and you're the only one who isn't up already!
Steve (still dreaming): Run Jerry! Tom is gonna get you!
Jin: He's dreaming about Tom and Jerry?!
Miharu: STEVE!
Steve: What?!
Hwoarang: Wake up man!
Steve: Alright already!
Breakfast was ok, well there were some glares between Hwoarang and Jin like always... I kept silence and deep sighs, but it was anice breakfast.
One week later... Here I am... Alone, writing here. What happened today?
Xiaoyu: I am so excited about the "Christmas dance"! I know it's next month but I can't wait till that night! I have to buy a dress... I got to look great for Jin!
Me: Jin? He invited you?!
Xiaoyu: Yeah! Didn't you know?
Me: No!
Miharu: She wasn't with us when you told me.
Xiaoyu: Oh, sorry! He asked me to go with him during his birthday party. It was so romantic!
Me: It's ok, but...
Xiaoyu: What? Is that a problem?
Me: But I hate Jin!
Xiaoyu (laughing): You two have to be friends again! This can't stay like this forever!
Miharu: She's right Julia! By the way, did someone asked you to the dance already?
Me: No... Guess, I won't be going...
Miharu (giggling with Xiaoyu): Don't say that! I know someone will ask you! Sooner or later!
Me: Do you know something that I don't?
Xiaoyu: Maybe...
Me: Don't hide me this things! What is it?
Miharu: Sorry... You'll have to wait!
Me: What does that mean?! Tell me!
And they didn't tell me... Xiaoyu with Jin? I hope they get along well! Xiaoyu seemed so happy! As for me... still with nobody!
Oh, and I have to start practising my Japanese for the trip! Here I go:
Hai: Yes
Samui: cold
Atsui: Hot
Nani o shimasu ka: What are we going to do?
Baka: Jin. I mean... Idiot.

Koban wa: Good night!
