Note: Thank you to those lovely kind persons who actually bothered to read my cousin and I's fic and REVIEWED it. Yes, thank you and I really hate this chapter cause it isn't anywhere near what I would call interesting and I admit that it is kind of confusing but once I get chapter 3 up it would hopefully start to make more sense. Well that's just a warning, in case any of you people wittnessing this would want to just click 'back' and ignore my fic forever. One thing is I don't blame you but you never know if you like something or not before you actually, in this case, read it. Oh well, guess I'll be polite and say Thank you for taking up your time to read my fic and please enjoy!!!!
The Chestnut haired girl stared at herself in the mirror and smiled with approval. She was dressed in her favourite Portman's skirt, her new baby blue singlet and her funky sunvisor. She stepped out of her room and yelled down the hallway.
"Hey! You ready yet!?"
"Hold on! You go down first!" The voice faintly replied.
"Fine!" She smiled and slid down the railing of the stairs. She wiped her behind and put on her chunky party platforms. She slung her black bag over her shoulders and glanced the time. Her friend Jeri should arrive any minute now.
"O.k I'm done."
She turned around and rolled her large eyes.
"Oh God! Why do you keep on dressing like a slut! There are boys there, or is that the point?"
"For the last time wearing a skirt with knee-high boots does NOT automatically make me a slut! Plus! You're wearing a skirt too!!"
"A skirt is fine but a mini-skirt is not!"
Her cousin looked down at her almost sleeveless white shirt under a pink v-neck vest with her mini and boots and decided that she did look slutty but, there was no way she was going to admit it.
"Maybe if you take your hair out of that clip you'd look cleaner....."
"Look! Stop fussing over my clothes! I'm leaving your fashion sense alone so leave me alone!"
Her cousin looked back and muttered something under her breath.
The first lines of 'Fur Elise' echoed through the hall.
"Doorbell!" The girls squealed and opened the door. The doorstep was occupied by none other than Jeri.
"Hi!" They greeted, inviting her in.
"Morning guy's!" She replied. "You guys look great!"
"Thanks. So do you."
"Thanks, but Jeri, don't you think that SHE looks like a slut?"
"Oh SHUT UP!"
Jeri's eye's ran up and down the two supermodel figures and decided that they both looked a little slutty in their own way but she didn't want to upset them.
"No, not really." She lied. "But just a hint, stay clear of Kazu, he has an unnaturally high masculine hormonal attraction to girls with short skirts. He's the reason I wore jeans today."
The cousins gave each other nervous glances. Noticing the stare, Jeri smiled.
"Don't worry, you can talk to me or my friend Rika. If you're talking to the guys stick with Takato, he's better conversation although Henry and Ken....uhhhh.....yeah Henry can be pretty nice too."
The girls smiled and nodded. Jeri smiled again and ushered them outside.
"Jeri's taking her time....." Kazu complained and ate another caramel filled chocolate drop.
"You know girls Kazu, the gossipers." Kenta agreed.
"Oh really?" An angry voice snapped.
The boys turned to see a very angry looking Rika glaring at them with her hands on her hips. As the three got into a 'bitch' fight, Henry moved his ass off the bench he was sitting on and stood next to Takato.
"Maybe you should call Jeri to see what's up." He suggested, handing him his phone.
"Yeah, good idea." Takato nodded and punched in the numbers.
"....ato.....TAKATO!"
The boys turned around and saw three girls run towards them.
"Hey Takato, Henry! Kenta, Kazu and Rika! ......if they heard me....."
"Hey Jeri! Would you like to introduce your friends?"
"Oh yeah! This girl," She puts her arm around the girl with the sun visor. "Is Miko, she's in my class at school! And this girl, is her cousin Sadako, she's in another class!"
"Hi!" The boys greeted.
Before they held out their hands for a shake, Miko had already lashed out and hugged Takato.
"Hi! Oh you must be Takato, you are soooooooo cute!!!!! Oh and you! You must be Henry, Jeri's told me a lot about the two of you!"
Miko released Henry and ran over to introduce herself to the arguing trio. Immediatly after she left, the boys stared evily at Jeri.
"Exactly what about us did you tell her about!?" They demanded.
Jeri smiled innocently and pointed to Sadako. Seeing her, the boys relaxed. Takato held out his hand.
"Hi, nice to meet ya."
"Nice to meet you too." She relied, shaking his hand.
Henry extended his hand for a shake but got pushed aside by a male with a masculine hormone overload.
"Hey! My name's Kazu, I'm in Yr 7B and I------" He suddenly got cut off when a brown haired girl with a ponytail pushed him away.
"Hi, my name's Rika. I'm in charge of keeping Kazu's hormones under control so you can go on without living in fear of being attacked by him." She pulled him away by his ear and Kenta came by.
"I'm Kenta, you can call me Rika's assistant if you want." He bowed politly and ran to catch up with Rika. Meanwhile the remaining four watched with stick-figuerd expressions.
"Well....."
"Well, were all hungry so lets get something to eat." Jeri suggested.
"Mmmmmmm.......Food........." Miko said sorta like a female version of Homer Simpson and she kind of started floating in thin air as thought bubbles with food in them randomly started appearing around her. The others watched and sweatdropped.
"Hey Sadako....." Jeri whispered. "Is she always like this."
"When it comes to food." Sadako sighed. "Yes."
"I'd like the Super Dooper Super Meal!!!!"
"Hey....can you really eat all that food?"
Ignoring the commotion, Henry stirred his Iced Lemon Tea and stared at the evil Maths problems which were causing him so much stress.
"Can I sit here?" A female voice asked.
He looked up and saw Sadako standing opposite him with a tray of food in her hands.
"Uhhhh....sure...." He replied and took off his glasses.
She smiled and set down her tray and crossed her legs when she sat. She stared at the almost empty space infront of Henry.
"Didn't you get anything to eat?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh umm.... I've got these homework problems to tackle, I don't really have time to socialise. If my mum hadn't forced me out, I would be sitting at home doing this. Not fun on a Sunday."
Sadako smiled. She could definitely relate. "You in Class A?"
Henry nodded and rolled his eyes.
"You?"
"Same."
"Ah! You're a victim too!"
They smiled and Sadako held out her hand.
"We didn't have a proper introduction." She explained. "Now I'm Sadako."
"Henry." They shook hands briefly.
"Aren't you guys a bit late for self introductions?" Kazu laughed and plopped down his tray at the far end of the table.
"Well if you didn't butt in, they wouldn't have to do it now, idiot!" Rika rolled her eyes and sat opposite him.
"Yum, yum, food for my tum!" Miko sang merrily and took the seat next to Sadako with Jeri on her left. Kenta sat next to Kazu and Takato sat down on the remaining seat.
Everyone just stared at Miko's tray for a while. Her meal consisted of two king sized burgers, two large fries, a large gravy potato, a large coleslaw, a large coke and a peal sago tea.
"Who the hell are you? Yukito from Card captor Sakura?" Rika raised an eyebrow in disbelief.
"You watch that anime?" Kazu asked slyly. Rika blushed and sipped her Iced coffee.
Miko glanced at the space infront of Henry.
"Didn't you get something to eat?"
"No, the poor guy has twenty horribly sexy Maths questions to seduce." Sadako filled in.
"What?" Everyone but Miko gave her a look which said 'which galaxy are you from?'
"Her way of saying he has twenty hard Maths questions to do." Miko explained and bit into her burger greedily. Her cheeks turned a rosy pink and her eyes sparkled like stars. Everyone just watched and sweatdropped.
"Mmmmmmm......hamburgers......" She sighed as burgers started appearing in thought bubbles around her head.
"Aren't they chicken burgers?" Takato whispered to Kenta who just shrugged.
"Hey everybody!!!!" Kazu announced. "I've got a joke!"
"Well tell it, don't keep us in suspense!" Rika sniggered and bit into a chip.
"O.k! What do you call a tricycle without a wheel?"
"What?"
Kazu froze dramatically while delivering the answer.
"A Bicycle!!!"
On hearing the answer, everyone paused as a mosquito flew by and slight giggling is heard - whoops! My mistake, that was Miko's stomache. So about five seconds later, everyone cracked up at the lamety of the joke, or more believeably, at the fact that Kazu had spilled some of his Sprite on his crotch and didn't know it.
Minutes later, they were all in their little chat groups. At the far end were Kazu and Rika who were in the middle of another pointless arguement. Takato, Miko, Jeri and Kenta were just talking about stuff with Miko cracking up for no particular reason every now and then. And lastly, Henry and Sadako were indeed having an intellectual conference. Eg: x=2(y+4x-3y) which of course x=2y+8x-6y and x = 0 or -9 y = 4 or 0 then you can plot the co-ordinates on a number plane and draw a line!
"EEEEEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!" As we all know, the word 'ewww' is usually made by a girl at a time of seeing something disgusting. But this particular 'ewww' was made by no ordinary girl. It was made by Kenta.
Of course, everyone responds to a damsel in distress so everybody looked in his direction and discovered that he was distressing because he had just witnessed Miko drink her coke with her pearl tea. (Note: If you do not know what pearl tea is, it is milk tea with little things inside which I will not describe)
"EEEEWWWWWW!!!!!!!!" Everyone moved away from the girl.
"This is nothing." Sadako said calmly, unfazed by the incident. "Wait till she drinks Cambel's Chicken and Mushroom Soup with Coke and Milo."
Takato began to think that girl is an alien. Actually, he did find her quite attractive until she started mixing drinks which made him feel rather seasick.
"Oh come on...." Miko sighed. "Everybody has their own disgusting habits!"
Takato looked down and thought about how he wipes his fingers on other people after he picks his nose. Kazu remembered how he never remembers to wash his hands after using the loo.
"That doesn't mean I'm an alien, Takato Matsuki." She gave him a meaningful glare and sent shivers down his spine.
'Maybe she isn't an alien, she's a mind reader.' He thought. She laughed.
"You have quite an imagination, well I have always been called psychic." She smiled.
Sadako glanced back and forth between the two and gave her cousin a good hard kick in the thigh. Miko screamed in pain and gave Sadako a death glare.
"I'm sorry I think we better go now." Sadako said politely but firmly and waved a goodbye while dragging a very pissed off Miko behind her.
Takato sighed from relief when the two walked out the door. A strange feeling he felt just then, it was like somebody had plastered their eyes into the back of his mind and taken a look in his thoughts.
"Yo Takato." Henry's voice soothed.
"Huh?"
"Are you o.k? You looked a little......whoa....."
"Yeah I'm fine." He shuddered.
"Well......they were nice...." Jeri smiled, hoping to calm things down.
"Yeah they were." Everyone agreed, for Jeri's sake.
Takato looked down, the way Miko looked at him, it wasn't love, hate, or any emotion, it was nothing he could describe. He shook his head and tried to forget, it was just his imagination, she wasn't reading his mind, it was just him, yes, it was just his imagination.....
