Chapter 4: The Challenge
The next day at school was pretty normal. Yup pretty normal. Really, I'm not lying. Why would I lie? I mean it's not as if I'm being pestered right now by the same annoying bastard that was trying to rape me yesterday or the same annoying bastard that was trying to pick me up. Really! I mean, the vein twitching on my head is not any indication that I'm about to explode, nope!
"LEAVE ME THE FK ALONE! AND PUT ME DOWN!!!" Shuichi was walking to school, well more specifically to Hiro's house, but it just so happened the 'bastard' decided to 'pick' him up. Literally!
"Well why should I? I like you where you are right now just fine." Shuichi was hanging on Taki's shoulder by the waist and let me tell you, that was very VERY uncomfortable. Taki had apparently either followed him home the other day or something like that because Shuichi would never in his right mind tell him where he lived. Right?
"UGH!!! LET ME GOOOOOO!!!!" Shuichi kicked and screamed. Taki was wincing ever so slightly as each fist hit him 3, 4, 5, 6........uh....times. Taki had enough. If this chick doesn't stop flailing I'm gonna rape her. Shuichi's movements weren't exactly unpleasant considering every time he moved his legs, well; Taki had a perfect view (If you know what I mean).
"Oi!! What are you doing with my girlfriend Taki? Kidnapping her won't do you any good, she'll still have the hots for me and the only thing you'll have is a fist in your face!" Hiro walked up to Taki and practically dragged Shuichi off him.
'Shit, why'd he have to get here now?' Taki was pissed.
"Haven't you learned to back off when a girl doesn't want you? Especially if she has a boyfriend. Or are you so desperate that you have to resolve to dirty tricks to get her?" Hiro asked him, holding Shuichi's hand.
Taki became heated with Hiro's smug comments. Damn it. Why is it that he always gets the girls that I want? He is always so smug...I really want to wipe that smile off of his face....
Taki smiled...."Alright then...I challenge you Hiro...Your band against mine. You will have till the end of this month which is in 2 weeks, to come up with three songs...we will, the entire school of course and the crowd, decide who is the better band. Whoever wins, gets to date Yoshi...and the loser has to back off...what do you say?"
How dare he try to make me his trophy! I am not for sale! Shuichi was fuming...he was about to explode when Hiro spoke.
"Thanks, but no thanks. My girl is not for sale. What kind of boyfriend would I be to sell my girl so cheap? Nope...Taki, you and your challenge can go to hell...Let's go Yoshi...we don't want to be late for school."
"Oh I get it....Hiroshi Nakano and his band are afraid to losing to little ol' me...? Is that it?" Taki sneered at Hiro.
Shuichi and Hiro stopped in their tracks. That....baka....Hiro just about had enough of Taki. He was practically writhing with rage. Taki always did know where to hit hardest. Hiroshi Nakano has never been afraid of anything in his life.....Except his parents....and Taki knew it. Hiro so wanted to accept that challenge. So badly, but what would Yoshi think of him? Selling her off like that? No...I'll just leave him there. It'll just make him even madder. Hiro sighed and began to move.
He couldn't budge. Hiro was surprised to find hands clinging deftly tight onto his arm and a body holding him back. Hiro turned only to face a bush of pink hair. He blinked. Whoa...bright. He shook his head. Now was not a time to get distracted, but before he could ask a soft voice interrupted.
"Accept the challenge Hiro." Hiro blinked again. What? This chick is nuts!!! Hiro stared.
"Wha-" The grip on his arms tightened causing Hiro to wince. Shuichi was distraught. He couldn't let this happen. He couldn't let Taki get the best of Hiro, not after all he's done for him. Shuichi had to pay Hiro back somehow. He had comforted Shuichi when Shuichi ran back to Hiro's house after nearly being raped by Taki and had cried. No, I can't let Taki do this, not to him, not after all he's done for me. No.
"Hiro..." Shuichi started shaking. His father had once been like this. His father had rejected his singing career, made him miserable, both his mother and father actually. They hadn't actually approved, but they let it go after they tried EVERYTHING to get him out of it. It wasn't a pleasant memory.
"Yoshi..." Hiro couldn't understand why 'she' would want to accept this. No one in their right mind would want to be gambled as a toy or object...especially as Taki one of the competitors...the bastard. (1) He looked down again when Yoshi lifted her eyes to him. She looked so sad.
"I want you to accept this Hiro. You've been so nice to me so far, but I can tell that it's taking a lot out of you to help me this way." Hiro stared blankly at Shuichi. She couldn't have known could she? Shuichi looked back with determined eyes now. It was his turn to look after Hiro.
"I know Hiro. You're still in love with that Ayaka girl aren't you?" He froze. Hiro literally froze. So...she does know...heh..... Guess it's true what they say about a woman's intuition...He turned to Shuichi and gave a small smile.
"Thank-you Yoshi...but accepting this would be far too risky. Especially facing him." Hiro made a gesture in Taki's direction, who was beginning to look impatient. "He has tons of dirty tricks up his sleeve. Even if we're better then him, no doubt he's going to rig the event."
Hiro was right, Shuichi knew, but there was always that chance that they'll win, albeit that it was slim...but it was there.
"OI! Are you two done talking to each other yet? I mean I understand you two being together for the last time before I take Yoshi away but I'm waiting for an answer here." Taki boasted. Shuichi and Hiro spared a glance his way, but looked back to each other making the former red in the face.
"No Hiro. Thank-you." Shuichi turned around to face Taki.
"Hiro accepts your challenge Taki, but don't expect to gain anything out of it. My boyfriend's a much better musician then you are, so just fuck off after he beats you got it?" Shuichi didn't leave room for Taki to respond as he whirled around and pulled Hiro along. Shuichi just huffed. Man was this going to be one hectic concert.
Man this chick really is nuts.
