Past Lives
Chapter Two
Everyone was staring at them. Mitsuko couldn't help but get a little nervous " Um.. sure.. I'd uh, love to come hang out." She said with a slight smile and an inner sigh. 'Damn, what the hell am I thinking!? No wait. I wasn't goddamn brain' mentally slaps herself.
Shuuichi smiled "Okay then. I'll show you around. You can meet my friends if we run into them. How does that sound?"
Mitsuko only nodded then looked around slightly to see all the female students staring at them. 'Damn, he must have a fan club.' She thought and turned back to laying her head on her folded arms. 'I don't understand how he can be so calm and collected all the time, its almost seems inhuman. He didn't even seem to realize them watching us.' she shrugged it off. Oh well. With that simple thought the bell had rung and everyone started to clean up and take a seat.
The last few hours of the day went by slowly, but painlessly. The final bell had rung and Mitsuko was tending to her dreams. In the dream she was running through a maze, a maze of thick bushes. She couldn't figure it out, but at the end she reached an area encircled with a hundred roses, white, red, and black. But something wasn't right. Just then Shuuichi had woken her up. "Ack!" she jumped. 'It was just a dream.' She thought. " Oh Shuuichi is it time to leave now?" he nodded to her question and they both got up and walked out into the front courtyard of the school, and walked through the gates.
"So where do you want to go first?" he asked politely. "We can go wherever you like."
"Actually, I've been here for a while. I know they said I was a transfer from Kyoto. But I lived there a few years ago." She sighed "Gomen Shuuichi."
He looked at her calmly as usual. "No need to be sorry. I thought that I had seen you before. At the corner café. Ya know the one with the really good mocha berry freezes?" She nodded to his statement. "Yeah. Okay. So do you want to go drop your stuff off at your house and then go to the café?"
" Um, I'd rather not. My place isn't the nicest. But I don't have any money to get something to eat at the café, so I'd have to pay you back." She stated. Just then she looked back to see a group of giggling fan girls. "They follow you around everywhere don't they?" He only nodded he didn't seemed the slightest bit phased.
"I got used to it. I'm just glad you're not like them." He said with a slight hit of annoyance in his voice. She only nodded. "Not very talkative are you Mitsuko?" he asked
She only nodded in reply. "Nope. I'm not one for thousand-words, or in this case twenty questions." She said in a sarcastic tone.
"Oh. I see. I'm sorry then." He said politely
'Man he doesn't get out much does he? He takes everything so literally.' She thought, " I was being sarcastic Shuuichi. I'm like that a lot you may want to get used to it."
"Ah. I knew that." He chuckled silently to himself. 'But I believe that I was starting the twenty question game. Natural curious Yoko Kurama instincts I guess. "Your apartment is around her is it not?" He questioned. She only nodded. " Do you want me to wait while you drop your stuff off?"
She looked at him strangely "Um. No. That's okay. But why must you insist on me dropping my stuff off?" He shrugged. " Ah. Well. Here." She signaled to turn right and they did so.
As they reached the apartment building Mitsuko and Shuuichi were semi- silent. Talking only every other few minutes. "Here we are." she signaled to a five story run down building. "I know it isn't much, but this is where I live." She led him to a staircase and as they walked up the stairs to the fourth floor Shuuichi was wondering why she lived in this place. " I live by myself." She stated taking out a pair of keys and inserting them into the lock. He noticed a few extra keys to a different house or two and some sort of vehicle. She opened the door and walked in followed closely by Shuuichi.
" Well here we are. Now just give me a few minutes and I guess I'll change. Skirts aren't my thing." She walked over to a closet and grabbed a pair of baggy jeans and a black shirt then went to the bathroom to change.
As Shuuichi looked around the apartment he noticed sever dirty pairs of pants that looked like they had oil stains on them, but he couldn't figure out why. 'Maybe she had a job as a technician?' he asked himself but noticed a motorcycle helmet and ruled it out. 'She rides motorcycles. Yusuke would kill to be her.'
As she walked out of the bathroom now with her hair down, and dressed in jeans and a black long sleeved shirt she looked at him and said. "You thirsty or anything. I'm gonna be a few more minutes." He shook his head and continued to look around. He saw her small bonsai plant. It was doing marvelously. He was glad to see someone with some sort of similar tastes. "Ah. Okay then. Let me just grab my wallet and we can be off." While saying this she looked for her wallet and found it in a dirty pair of jeans then went to get her shoes on. " Ok. We can go now."
He looked at her and nodded. "Do you ride motorcycles or something?" he questioned gesturing to the helmet.
'Oh shit. No one was suppose to know that.' She smacked herself mentally again. " Yeah. I work on them as well." She gestured to the dirty jeans. " I make a decent living. Now can we leave?" she asked sort of impatiently.
"Yeah. Sorry." He followed her out the door as she locked it behind them. And they walked into the city headed towards the corners café.
