Being in love is not easy……………..

By: Sailorjj07

2. It's hard to keep things a secret……

A/n: If this chappy is boring as heck, please forgive me. No idea has struck me at the moment and I have writer's block. Oh gawd………….I hate writer's block. Oh well…….

And thank you to those who reviewed!!!!!

Disclaimer: I do not own anything, but my name. And that was given to me. Geez…….

"Speaking"

'Thoughts' Oh yeah, most thoughts will have a name on the end. You'll see what I mean.

(Me talking)

~Actions~

            Lan and Maylu walked into their class and rolled their eyes at the collective gasp from the almost half of the class.

"Lan, I seriously think you should maybe get up early more often. This is sad." Maylu said, giggling.

'I will if I keep having dreams about you, Maylu.'

"Lan? Hello? Lan, did you hear what I said?"

"Huh? What? Oh yeah…ummmmmmmm, could you repeat that please?" Lan replied, blushing beet red for not paying attention to Maylu.

"I said, how do you think Dex, Tory, and Yai will react to us being here earlier than them?"

"You know, Maylu, I honestly don't know."

"They'll probably have a heart attack." Megaman said from Lan's PET.

'I have a heart attack every time I see you, Mega.'  Roll thought to herself.

(A/n: Corny, I know. But…it's kind of cute.)

"Roll, what are you blushing about, huh?" Maylu asked her quietly, giggling at Roll's 'out-of-it' expression.

"Maylu, every time I hear Mega say something, it reminds me of something I like about him. I don't know how long I can keep this in. Glyde and Iceman have already noticed a few things and I think Gutsman has something in mind. He's been acting very strange lately and its bothering me." Roll whispered back, as Maylu sat down at her desk.

"Don't worry Roll. I think you can hold out fine. At least until you know if he returns your feelings or not."

"I'll try, Maylu. I'll try."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            At lunch everyone (as in Lan and co.) sat under a sakura tree and had lunch. Everyone except for Maylu that is.

"Hey Maylu, did you not bring your lunch or something? I'll share mine with you if you'd like." Yai said to her, looking at her worriedly.

"No, it's alright Yai. I'm not hungry. I knew I wouldn't be so I didn't bring it with me."

"Are you sure? I can share mine, you know."

"No, that's alright."

After about 30 seconds of sitting in silence, Maylu stood up, "Come find me when everyone is done eating, ok?"

"Sure." Yai replied, really confused now.

Maylu nodded and walked away from the group, PET in hand.

~Somewhere else on school grounds~

"Roll, I can hardly eat, I hardly sleep and I'm always worried if I'll let something slip. This is hard."

"Now you get what I'm saying. Maylu, everyday I'm afraid I'll let something slip. I seriously didn't think being in love with someone was so…………hard."

"I didn't know it was either. And the fact that Dex gets jealous so quickly doesn't help it either. If Lan ever felt the same way for me, I would be the cause of two best friends falling apart."

"Yeah……….I forgot all about that. Oh, that just makes it worse."

"I know……….."

Maylu heard footsteps behind her and turned around to see Lan coming down the hill, his lunch in hand. He grinned at Maylu, while blushing and sat down next to her.

"Maylu, what's wrong? Even though you don't eat as much as I do, you still usually eat. How come you're not eating today?"

"I don't really know, Lan." Maylu said, hating to have to lie to him.

"Well, your gonna share my lunch with me then."

"What? Lan, I'm fine. Really am I. You don't have to…mffff."

Lan stuffed some food in her mouth while she was talking.

"You know sometimes, you talk too much. I don't even know why you tried to talk yourself out of sharing my lunch with me. That's what you get for not bringing yours."

"I agree with Lan, Maylu. You should have brought it."

Roll smiled nodding.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

When they were done, they both stood up and walked back to where they had left the group, in silence.

Maylu broke it.

"Lan thanks. You really didn't have to do that, but you did anyway. That was really nice of you."

Gathering all of her courage, Maylu leaned in and kissed his cheek.

A burning fiery sensation filled both and Maylu would have done anything to be able to kiss him on his lips.

'I have never in my life done something like that. And it was fun!!' Maylu thought, smiling happily. She would have to remember to tell Roll.


            ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            Yai grinned when she saw her two friends come back. Something had happened. Maylu only blushed when she was talking about Lan. For some reason no one seemed to notice, not even Maylu herself. But Yai saw it. She saw it every time.

Oh, it was time for some matchmaking.

"Are you feeling better, Maylu?"

Maylu glanced sideways at Lan, "Much better." Maylu replied smiling.

"Good."

"Are you gonna tell them, Yai?" Dex asked her eagerly.

"Oh yes, we're all going to my club house after school. Do you two want to come?"

"Sure." Lan and Maylu replied together.

"It's settled then."
