discliamer: i don't own kodocha, u know the drill...
jfan: so, i guess the last chappie proved akito wasn't such a jerk as we thought.
akito: i don't believe you made me into such a sensitive weakling....
jfan: you were always that way... sorta.. in your mind...
akito: .....
jfan: well, here's the 6th chapie!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Sana...." Akito gasped heavily, slowly calming down after his nightmare. He wiped away his tears hastily, not wanting to have his dad or Natsumi seeing him this way. His feet hit the carpet as he walked across his room, wanting to wash his face. The sound of the faucet turning and water splashing filled in the silence of the morning.
'That's it... I have to talk to Sana today. I can't risk, I won't risk her getting hurt' Akito wiped off his face and slipped on new cargo pants and a t-shirt.
"Good morning, Akito..." His father looked up from the morning paper to look at his son. "Haven't seen you around much lately."
"Whatever." Akito walked out the door, determined to go to Sana's house.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Sana, ya know, i think that Akito was framed..." Fuka suggested, not wanting to see Sana in her depressed state.
"Exactly...how... Fuka...?"
"Um..... I dunno yet... but I'm workin' on it!"
Sana lay in bed, staring at her black-haired friend. 'I wish Akito would at least come and talk to me... I-I guess I wouldn't mind being his friend.... at least I'd be around him... be someone he cared about... even if it's just as a FRIEND.'
"Nah, Akito... I don't think it's a good idea to see Sana now... she's not the same no more, not the cheerful person she is..."
"AKITOO?!!!"
"Sana...?" Akito looked inside the room, staring at the girl in bed.
"Akito.... urm... you can come in if you want...."
"'Kay..." Akito walked into the room, grabbing a chair and sitting right beside the bed.
"So, how's things going with.... um... Kato...?"
"Fine... she's a pretty good friend. Maybe not as good as Aya or Fuka, though..."
"Huh...? Oh, so I guess she makes a better... girlfriend than a friend, then..."
"What are you talking about....?"
"Eh?!!!" Sana's head shot straight up.
"She's great... but... (sigh)... you're the only one for me, Sana."
Sana stared into Akito's somewhat forlorn, loving eyes. Their eyes met, both not knowing why they ever doubted their relationship. Their faces grew closer and closer, until their lips were abbout a centimeter away, when...
"Whatta ya doin' here?!" Fuka screamed.
"I wanted to visit Kurata...." Kato replied, in a smooth, sweet voice.
"Wait a minute... I don't think Sana would like to see ya..."
"What would you know... you Osakan freak?" a definite attitude evident both in her eyes and her voice.
"Wha-? WHY YOU...!"
Kato strode in, her hips swaying and her hand resting on her shoulder purse. She was quite breath-taking, you had to admit. She was wearing a black skirt, a purple-blue sleeveless shirt, and high-heeled, laced black sandals. Her auburn hair was flowing and straight... and to finish her off she had light pink lipstick on her smiling, smooth lips.
"Akito! I didn't know you'd be here.... (she sorta hoped he'd be here... if he wasn't then she'd have a little talk with Kurata.)"
The two had no idea what Kato said to Fuka, but sorta knew that she was coming coming in by Fuka's exclamation.
"Kato, what are you doing here...?"
"I came to visit Kurata, Akito. After all, I am just as a caring person as anybody else."
"Kato...?" Sana was completely dismayed to see Kato... just when Akito and her had made up.
"Kurata! We never really got acquainted did we...? Kato Rogers. I'm not too fond of my father's American last name, but...."
"Urm, Sana Kurata."
Kato grinned, and shook Sana's hand. "Nice to meet you, Sana."
"Uh... same here..."
Kato turned to Akito. "Akito, wanna hang out together...?"
"I dunno... I sorta want to stay here, and make sure Sana's okay."
"Oh, but... summer's almost over, and then I'll have to go back to L.A. Please, Akito....?"
"Um.. uh... sure... but I'm not comfortable about leaving Sana...."
"Who said anything about leaving her behind..? Kurata, do you wanna come along...?"
"Sure!" Sana definitely didn't want Kato and Akito alone together.
"Great! Well, it's all settled! The three of us are gonna go out today!"
