Chapter 7 - Morning?
The next morning, Kouji's parents were home at about 9 am.
"Kouji! We are home!" Kouji's parents shouted and waited for their son to come down from his room, wearing that same old expression, tripped and fell from the staircase halfway.
" 'You're home,' Kouji will say plainly as he yawned," Kouji's dad said. "'Do you want me to make breakfast for you?' He asked rubbing his eyes," Kouji mom continued. "Then we'll say we have eaten and he should make breakfast for himself," Kouji's dad smiled as Kouji's mom nodded, "He'll then say that he's not hungry and he'll go out after taking his jacket." Kouji's parents grinned as they recited Kouji's morning 'speech' by heart.
However, today was different, they waited and waited but still no sign of Kouji coming down to greet them and start his morning speech. Kouji's parents looked at each other and rushed upstairs to his room. They opened the door to his room and saw Kouji still sleeping, a blanket was covering him from head to toe. Kouji's parents gave a little laugh as Kouji's mom went by his bedside.
"Kouji. Time to wake up!" She whispered in a gentle voice. The blanket moved and came a soft voice, "Coming mom." Kouji's dad laughed at the sight of his son talking in his sleep. "Kouji. It's already 9 am! You're gonna be late for school!" Kouji's mom whispered again in his ears, this time louder. No response. 'Strange. This usually works.' Kouji's mom thought as she shook Kouji furiously.
Kouji's dad put an alarm clock on the blanket and let it rang, "RRRrrrrinGGGGG!!" went the alarm clock. A hand shot out from the blanket, caught the ringing alarm clock and smashed it against the wall.
"My alarm clock!" Kouji's dad cried as he went to pick up the remaining pieces of his precious alarm clock, "I've had enough Kouji!" Kouji's dad shouted as he grabbed the blanket and threw it to the ground.
"KOUJI! WAKE." Kouji's dad shouted but stopped when he saw who was sleeping on the bed, a girl and his son. his SON!! Kouji's hand was around the girl's waist while the girl's was around his neck. Kouji stirred and opened his eyes from the commotion. Kouji saw the remains of the alarm clock and asked aloud, "Did I just break an alarm clock?"
"For your interest sake. you did." Kouji's dad pointed at the remains of the poor alarm clock, his voice trembling.
"Morning mom, morning dad. Why are you staring at me like that?" Kouji yawned, still half asleep, his eyes tearing. "What's the matter Kouji?" Izumi woke up too and rubbed her eyes and saw two grown-ups staring at her and Kouji.
Kouji and Izumi finally realized what the two grown-ups were staring at and immediately got out from the bed, blushing furiously. Kouji's mom opened her mouth but closed it again (like a goldfish), her eyes as wide as the Tom and Jerry's.
"Here son. We need to talk to you." Kouji's dad said, his voice still trembling. Kouji walked towards his dad and his parents pushed him out of the room. Izumi stood rooted to the ground, she heard a slam on the room next door, "Oh no! This calls for trouble!" Izumi shook her head and said out aloud.
*** In Kouji's parents' room.
"Sit!" Kouji's dad ordered, pointing on the bed. Kouji obeyed, a little scared of his father, 'Father has never been this angry.' Kouji's mom was still opening and closing her mouth, she was sort of in a trance.
Kouji waited for about a minute but none of his parents spoke. "If there's nothing you want to talk about, then excuse me and Merry Christmas," Kouji said innocently and stood up. He was about to turn the doorknob when his father shouted, "Come back here Kouji!" Kouji turned to look at his father, his eyebrows twitching. Kouji walked back and sat on the bed, a little scared. (A/N Awww.. Kouji scared?)
"Is there any problem?" Kouji asked in a timid voice (A/N Not so much like him huh?). "ANY PROBLEM? YOU ARE ONLY 15 AND YOU'RE ALREADY SLEEPING WITH A GIRL?????" Kouji's dad shouted and Kouji had to cover his ears to stop himself from getting deaf.
"Dad. We only slept together that's all! We didn't do anything!" Kouji complained. "THAT'S ALL?" Kouji's dad shouted again, "DO YOU KNOW HOW SERIOUS IT IS?" Kouji rolled his eyes and thought for a while, actually he was not really thinking, "Ermm. No?" Kouji said innocently, not having enough courage to look at his father, he knew what to come. But what could he do?
"NO??????????"
Izumi who was in Kouji's room heard somebody shouted and rushed to next room, 'Kouji must be in trouble!' Izumi pushed open the door and saw Kouji on the bed with his father on top of him. Izumi gapped and started laughing.
"I haha.am haha. Sorry haha. dad. HAHA!!!" Kouji laughed as his father tickled him. "So is it still OK to sleep with a girl?" Kouji's dad asked strictly, laughing along with his son (A/N Oh well. That's strange -_-''').
"Yeah. It's not. It's not. I am sorry." Kouji laughed harder every second. Izumi who was having fun watching Kouji being tickled by his father had to bit her lips to stop herself from laughing too hard, but she couldn't hold on much longer. Izumi started rolling on the ground, laughing.
Finally, after one minute of 'torture', Kouji's dad got up from the bed and walked towards Izumi who had finished laughing. "Forgive my son girl, he's always that, he's the type of guy that is always very blur, I hope you won't mind" Kouji's dad apologized in a deep voice and left the room with Kouji's (still) stunned mom.
As soon as Kouji's dad had closed the door behind him, Izumi started laughing again . Kouji straightened himself and walked towards Izumi, "I am sorry about last night Izumi," Kouji hang his head low.
"It's okay!" Izumi laughed even harder, tears were coming out of her eyes. "What are you laughing at?" Kouji asked frowning, tilting his head. "Your father called you the blur type while I think you're the serious type!" Izumi said with sarcasm. Kouji rolled his eyes and whispered something about getting back at his father but smiled instantly when he saw Izumi rolling at the ground with laughter.
Finally after a few minutes, Izumi managed to get hold of herself and stopped laughing. By that time, her stomach hurts a lot. Izumi looked up and saw Kouji staring at her, tapping his feet and his arms crossed, "Finished laughing?" He asked, glaring at Izumi, the smile on his face had worn off.
Izumi got up from the ground and shrugged, "Guess so." Actually, she hadn't. It's only that she had to catch her breath in order to laugh some more.
"Good, I am going out now. Coming?" Kouji asked curtly and opened the door with Izumi following behind. "That means a yes," Kouji whispered, "I am going out mom! Don't need to save any breakfast for me!" Kouji shouted as he grabbed his and Izumi's jacket and left with Izumi. Kouji's mom who was back from her trance sighed, "No matter what happens, we still can't get Kouji to have his breakfast at home."
***
"Where are we going, Kouji?" Izumi asked Kouji who was beside her. "Your home." Kouji said plainly as he handed Izumi her jacket. Izumi shivered at the mention of home, that means she had to face her mom, "Oh mom." Izumi sighed, "I am dead."
"Sorry for not waking you up," Kouji apologized, "I even slept on the same bed as you." Izumi shook her head, "It's okay. The most I'll only got a tickling like you did," Izumi giggled as Kouji frowned. 'I have to admit it! Kouji looks so cute when he frown!' Izumi giggled, 'Naughty Izumi! Stop it! You already have Kouichi!' Izumi shook off her thoughts with much effort.
The two continued their journey with Izumi do the talking with Kouji saying "Erm." all the way. Suddenly, Izumi's stomach. growled. Kouji who noticed this gave a little laugh.
"What? Isn't it normal for humans to get hungry?" Izumi punched Kouji's arm playfully. Kouji shrugged, "Because you are the second girl that I know who like to eat a lot." Izumi rolled her eyes, "Then who has the honour to be first?" Kouji shrugged again, "Someone that I really like." Kouji looked into Izumi's emerald green eyes and smiled, 'That is you Xiao Quan.'
This time, it was Izumi's turn to laugh, "I wonder which girl will like you despite your characters," Izumi said with sarcasm. Kouji frowned but that frown soon turned into a smile, "How about you? Your crush has the same character as I do, right?"
Izumi blushed, "Maybe. If I had know you earlier, I might have fallen for you." Izumi mumbled, stumbling on her words. Kouji laughed again. (more like a giggle but does Kouji giggles? ^-^'''''')
"What is it this time?" Izumi asked, glaring at Kouji. "Nothing." Kouji shrugged, still smiling, "Shall I treat you to breakfast?"
Izumi shrugged, "Sure! I am starving! Thanks a lot! Don't regret it!" Izumi answered slyly, rubbing her stomach, "Let's go there!" Izumi exclaimed and grabbed Kouji's hand, dragging him behind her.
'I wonder what you'll say when I tell you that you meet me earlier than Kouichi.' Kouji thought, 'I am confused, should I be happy for you? Or should I be angry. Should I tell you?" (A/N Yeah. So on and so forth. lots of should if you want me to continue :P)
***
"Hei Kouji! Aren't you eating anything?" Izumi mumbled, munching more of her food, "This is good!"
"Thanks, but I usually don't eat in the morning," Kouji smiled while Izumi choked on her food, "You can't be kidding! I can't survive without breakfast!"
Kouji sighed, "Well, what if I can? I am not the same as you right?" Kouji winked at Izumi that made Izumi felt really warm, 'A wink huh? Kouji & Hui Er really are cute when they wink. frown. Speaking of that. Kouji and Hui Er do share a lot of common points.' Izumi grinned but shook that thought soon when she found Kouji staring at her.
"You all right?" A bewildered Kouji asked, waving his hand up and down in front of Izumi's face. Izumi shrugged, "Nothing. Just thinking of some private matters."
"About -" Kouji was about to ask when he was interrupted by Izumi. "You wouldn't want to know right Mr. want-to-know-all?" Izumi gave Kouji a death stare that really can kill, her face very close to Kouji. Kouji sweat dropped, "Of course I wouldn't want to invade other people's privacy. haha." Kouji gave a fake laugh while scratching his face.
Izumi sat down again with her eyes closed, breathing heavily. Suddenly, she changed back to her normal self and gave Kouji an apple from her plate, "Eat!" She ordered, pointing at the apple in front of Kouji.
Kouji stared at the apple then at Izumi, 'What's she thinking?' Kouji thought but was silenced by a bang on the table that startled him. The customers around took a peek at the two teenagers. Kouji felt uncomfortable with so many eyes on them, he looked behind, in front and to the left (They're sitting on the right) at the corner of his eyes, some were shaking their heads, some were whispering and some were pointing at him and Izumi.
"I said EAT!" Izumi hissed angrily, her face was red, she's either blushing or angry. Kouji sweat dropped, not wanting to attract much attention himself, Kouji picked up the apple and took a bite out of it. (A/N Oh man. Is Kouji this troublesome?)
The customers went back to do their own things, some were whispering while pointing at Kouji, "That guy is so damn troublesome!" "So irresponsible!" "How can he made a girl offer her food?"
Kouji sighed while munching the rest off his apple. Pretending not to hear what the customers were saying, Kouji put back his tough look, still sighing, 'Just my luck to have so many awkward things to happen in the early morning.'
***
As soon as the two teens had finished their breakfast, well. for Kouji it's a 'forced' breakfast. They started towards Izumi's house with Izumi leading the way.
'Where did I stop just now?' Izumi frowned and racked her brain, 'Hui Er and Kouji share a lot of common points do they? Both of them were lone wolfs, like to wear bandanas, always wear jacket all seasons, hates having breakfast ermm. looks cute when blushing or frowning.' Izumi paused and started giggling, 'Naughty naughty Izumi! Isn't Kouichi good enough for you?' Izumi punched her own head and attracted Kouji's attention. Kouji stared at Izumi as if she was a mad girl somehow.
'Mad girl on the loose,' Kouji rolled his eyes. Good Kouji. If Xiao Quan hear this you're dead meat. Kouji shuddered at the thought. scary. She would tie him up to a tree and started tickling him with a leaf. "Mind your own business" She would say. 'All right, I will,' Kouji thought with a sigh, taking a quick glance at Izumi.
'Ok now for the differences. Can't find it! Arh Izumi! Rack your brain! Rack your brain! If you can't find any that means Kouji is Hui Er! Wait. Where did that come from?' Izumi thought as she racked her brain some more, 'ARH! No matter what I still couldn't find their differences!'
"Erm. When are we going to reach your house?" Kouji asked, tapping Izumi's shoulder, he still couldn't bring himself to calling her Izumi. But why?
Izumi snapped out of her thought and looked around, "Sorry. Should have turned left at that turn just now," Izumi stuck out her tongue in guilt while Kouji sweat dropped. "Nevermind! Walking is exercise!" Izumi smiled, covering her mistake, "Let's go! One two! One two!" Izumi marched. 'Exercise huh?' Kouji forced a smile as he followed behind Izumi.
After a few minutes, they reached Izumi's house. Before Kouji went off, Izumi placed a soft kiss on Kouji's cheek, "Merry Christmas, Christmas wolf!" Kouji blushed.
Izumi giggled, "Actually that was the nickname I gave my first crush, but I guess since he's not here, I will give you the nickname?" Before Kouji could even said anything, Izumi knocked on the door and Izumi's mom appeared, hugging Izumi, "Oh Izumi! Where did you go yesterday? I was so worried! You must be Kouichi, Izumi's boyfriend right?" Izumi's mom asked, turning at the blushing Kouji.
Kouji and Izumi sweat dropped. "I am Kouji Minamoto, although I looks like Kimura, I am still Kouji," Kouji said in a cold tone, "If you excuse me, I need to go!" Kouji turned and ran towards the opposite direction.
"What's wrong with him?" Izumi's mom muttered, holding Izumi close to her side, "Anyway for your you-know-what." Izumi's mom narrowed her eyes and grinned at Izumi. Izumi shivered as she looked at her mom's eyes. scary.
*With Kouji*
"Why do I have to look like Kimura?" Kouji said out aloud as he walked on towards his home but soon shook off the thought, 'But before that, I am still confused. Should I tell her? But I don't want her to make any difficult choices. I know it would be selfish of me when I know that you had Kouichi and now I reappeared in front of you.' Kouji looked at the sky and smiled, "Merry Christmas Yuki no Tenshi."

Chapter 7 - Morning?
The next morning, Kouji's parents were home at about 9 am.
"Kouji! We are home!" Kouji's parents shouted and waited for their son to come down from his room, wearing that same old expression, tripped and fell from the staircase halfway.
" 'You're home,' Kouji will say plainly as he yawned," Kouji's dad said. "'Do you want me to make breakfast for you?' He asked rubbing his eyes," Kouji mom continued. "Then we'll say we have eaten and he should make breakfast for himself," Kouji's dad smiled as Kouji's mom nodded, "He'll then say that he's not hungry and he'll go out after taking his jacket." Kouji's parents grinned as they recited Kouji's morning 'speech' by heart.
However, today was different, they waited and waited but still no sign of Kouji coming down to greet them and start his morning speech. Kouji's parents looked at each other and rushed upstairs to his room. They opened the door to his room and saw Kouji still sleeping, a blanket was covering him from head to toe. Kouji's parents gave a little laugh as Kouji's mom went by his bedside.
"Kouji. Time to wake up!" She whispered in a gentle voice. The blanket moved and came a soft voice, "Coming mom." Kouji's dad laughed at the sight of his son talking in his sleep. "Kouji. It's already 9 am! You're gonna be late for school!" Kouji's mom whispered again in his ears, this time louder. No response. 'Strange. This usually works.' Kouji's mom thought as she shook Kouji furiously.
Kouji's dad put an alarm clock on the blanket and let it rang, "RRRrrrrinGGGGG!!" went the alarm clock. A hand shot out from the blanket, caught the ringing alarm clock and smashed it against the wall.
"My alarm clock!" Kouji's dad cried as he went to pick up the remaining pieces of his precious alarm clock, "I've had enough Kouji!" Kouji's dad shouted as he grabbed the blanket and threw it to the ground.
"KOUJI! WAKE." Kouji's dad shouted but stopped when he saw who was sleeping on the bed, a girl and his son. his SON!! Kouji's hand was around the girl's waist while the girl's was around his neck. Kouji stirred and opened his eyes from the commotion. Kouji saw the remains of the alarm clock and asked aloud, "Did I just break an alarm clock?"
"For your interest sake. you did." Kouji's dad pointed at the remains of the poor alarm clock, his voice trembling.
"Morning mom, morning dad. Why are you staring at me like that?" Kouji yawned, still half asleep, his eyes tearing. "What's the matter Kouji?" Izumi woke up too and rubbed her eyes and saw two grown-ups staring at her and Kouji.
Kouji and Izumi finally realized what the two grown-ups were staring at and immediately got out from the bed, blushing furiously. Kouji's mom opened her mouth but closed it again (like a goldfish), her eyes as wide as the Tom and Jerry's.
"Here son. We need to talk to you." Kouji's dad said, his voice still trembling. Kouji walked towards his dad and his parents pushed him out of the room. Izumi stood rooted to the ground, she heard a slam on the room next door, "Oh no! This calls for trouble!" Izumi shook her head and said out aloud.
*** In Kouji's parents' room.
"Sit!" Kouji's dad ordered, pointing on the bed. Kouji obeyed, a little scared of his father, 'Father has never been this angry.' Kouji's mom was still opening and closing her mouth, she was sort of in a trance.
Kouji waited for about a minute but none of his parents spoke. "If there's nothing you want to talk about, then excuse me and Merry Christmas," Kouji said innocently and stood up. He was about to turn the doorknob when his father shouted, "Come back here Kouji!" Kouji turned to look at his father, his eyebrows twitching. Kouji walked back and sat on the bed, a little scared. (A/N Awww.. Kouji scared?)
"Is there any problem?" Kouji asked in a timid voice (A/N Not so much like him huh?). "ANY PROBLEM? YOU ARE ONLY 15 AND YOU'RE ALREADY SLEEPING WITH A GIRL?????" Kouji's dad shouted and Kouji had to cover his ears to stop himself from getting deaf.
"Dad. We only slept together that's all! We didn't do anything!" Kouji complained. "THAT'S ALL?" Kouji's dad shouted again, "DO YOU KNOW HOW SERIOUS IT IS?" Kouji rolled his eyes and thought for a while, actually he was not really thinking, "Ermm. No?" Kouji said innocently, not having enough courage to look at his father, he knew what to come. But what could he do?
"NO??????????"
Izumi who was in Kouji's room heard somebody shouted and rushed to next room, 'Kouji must be in trouble!' Izumi pushed open the door and saw Kouji on the bed with his father on top of him. Izumi gapped and started laughing.
"I haha.am haha. Sorry haha. dad. HAHA!!!" Kouji laughed as his father tickled him. "So is it still OK to sleep with a girl?" Kouji's dad asked strictly, laughing along with his son (A/N Oh well. That's strange -_-''').
"Yeah. It's not. It's not. I am sorry." Kouji laughed harder every second. Izumi who was having fun watching Kouji being tickled by his father had to bit her lips to stop herself from laughing too hard, but she couldn't hold on much longer. Izumi started rolling on the ground, laughing.
Finally, after one minute of 'torture', Kouji's dad got up from the bed and walked towards Izumi who had finished laughing. "Forgive my son girl, he's always that, he's the type of guy that is always very blur, I hope you won't mind" Kouji's dad apologized in a deep voice and left the room with Kouji's (still) stunned mom.
As soon as Kouji's dad had closed the door behind him, Izumi started laughing again . Kouji straightened himself and walked towards Izumi, "I am sorry about last night Izumi," Kouji hang his head low.
"It's okay!" Izumi laughed even harder, tears were coming out of her eyes. "What are you laughing at?" Kouji asked frowning, tilting his head. "Your father called you the blur type while I think you're the serious type!" Izumi said with sarcasm. Kouji rolled his eyes and whispered something about getting back at his father but smiled instantly when he saw Izumi rolling at the ground with laughter.
Finally after a few minutes, Izumi managed to get hold of herself and stopped laughing. By that time, her stomach hurts a lot. Izumi looked up and saw Kouji staring at her, tapping his feet and his arms crossed, "Finished laughing?" He asked, glaring at Izumi, the smile on his face had worn off.
Izumi got up from the ground and shrugged, "Guess so." Actually, she hadn't. It's only that she had to catch her breath in order to laugh some more.
"Good, I am going out now. Coming?" Kouji asked curtly and opened the door with Izumi following behind. "That means a yes," Kouji whispered, "I am going out mom! Don't need to save any breakfast for me!" Kouji shouted as he grabbed his and Izumi's jacket and left with Izumi. Kouji's mom who was back from her trance sighed, "No matter what happens, we still can't get Kouji to have his breakfast at home."
***
"Where are we going, Kouji?" Izumi asked Kouji who was beside her. "Your home." Kouji said plainly as he handed Izumi her jacket. Izumi shivered at the mention of home, that means she had to face her mom, "Oh mom." Izumi sighed, "I am dead."
"Sorry for not waking you up," Kouji apologized, "I even slept on the same bed as you." Izumi shook her head, "It's okay. The most I'll only got a tickling like you did," Izumi giggled as Kouji frowned. 'I have to admit it! Kouji looks so cute when he frown!' Izumi giggled, 'Naughty Izumi! Stop it! You already have Kouichi!' Izumi shook off her thoughts with much effort.
The two continued their journey with Izumi do the talking with Kouji saying "Erm." all the way. Suddenly, Izumi's stomach. growled. Kouji who noticed this gave a little laugh.
"What? Isn't it normal for humans to get hungry?" Izumi punched Kouji's arm playfully. Kouji shrugged, "Because you are the second girl that I know who like to eat a lot." Izumi rolled her eyes, "Then who has the honour to be first?" Kouji shrugged again, "Someone that I really like." Kouji looked into Izumi's emerald green eyes and smiled, 'That is you Xiao Quan.'
This time, it was Izumi's turn to laugh, "I wonder which girl will like you despite your characters," Izumi said with sarcasm. Kouji frowned but that frown soon turned into a smile, "How about you? Your crush has the same character as I do, right?"
Izumi blushed, "Maybe. If I had know you earlier, I might have fallen for you." Izumi mumbled, stumbling on her words. Kouji laughed again. (more like a giggle but does Kouji giggles? ^-^'''''')
"What is it this time?" Izumi asked, glaring at Kouji. "Nothing." Kouji shrugged, still smiling, "Shall I treat you to breakfast?"
Izumi shrugged, "Sure! I am starving! Thanks a lot! Don't regret it!" Izumi answered slyly, rubbing her stomach, "Let's go there!" Izumi exclaimed and grabbed Kouji's hand, dragging him behind her.
'I wonder what you'll say when I tell you that you meet me earlier than Kouichi.' Kouji thought, 'I am confused, should I be happy for you? Or should I be angry. Should I tell you?" (A/N Yeah. So on and so forth. lots of should if you want me to continue :P)
***
"Hei Kouji! Aren't you eating anything?" Izumi mumbled, munching more of her food, "This is good!"
"Thanks, but I usually don't eat in the morning," Kouji smiled while Izumi choked on her food, "You can't be kidding! I can't survive without breakfast!"
Kouji sighed, "Well, what if I can? I am not the same as you right?" Kouji winked at Izumi that made Izumi felt really warm, 'A wink huh? Kouji & Hui Er really are cute when they wink. frown. Speaking of that. Kouji and Hui Er do share a lot of common points.' Izumi grinned but shook that thought soon when she found Kouji staring at her.
"You all right?" A bewildered Kouji asked, waving his hand up and down in front of Izumi's face. Izumi shrugged, "Nothing. Just thinking of some private matters."
"About -" Kouji was about to ask when he was interrupted by Izumi. "You wouldn't want to know right Mr. want-to-know-all?" Izumi gave Kouji a death stare that really can kill, her face very close to Kouji. Kouji sweat dropped, "Of course I wouldn't want to invade other people's privacy. haha." Kouji gave a fake laugh while scratching his face.
Izumi sat down again with her eyes closed, breathing heavily. Suddenly, she changed back to her normal self and gave Kouji an apple from her plate, "Eat!" She ordered, pointing at the apple in front of Kouji.
Kouji stared at the apple then at Izumi, 'What's she thinking?' Kouji thought but was silenced by a bang on the table that startled him. The customers around took a peek at the two teenagers. Kouji felt uncomfortable with so many eyes on them, he looked behind, in front and to the left (They're sitting on the right) at the corner of his eyes, some were shaking their heads, some were whispering and some were pointing at him and Izumi.
"I said EAT!" Izumi hissed angrily, her face was red, she's either blushing or angry. Kouji sweat dropped, not wanting to attract much attention himself, Kouji picked up the apple and took a bite out of it. (A/N Oh man. Is Kouji this troublesome?)
The customers went back to do their own things, some were whispering while pointing at Kouji, "That guy is so damn troublesome!" "So irresponsible!" "How can he made a girl offer her food?"
Kouji sighed while munching the rest off his apple. Pretending not to hear what the customers were saying, Kouji put back his tough look, still sighing, 'Just my luck to have so many awkward things to happen in the early morning.'
***
As soon as the two teens had finished their breakfast, well. for Kouji it's a 'forced' breakfast. They started towards Izumi's house with Izumi leading the way.
'Where did I stop just now?' Izumi frowned and racked her brain, 'Hui Er and Kouji share a lot of common points do they? Both of them were lone wolfs, like to wear bandanas, always wear jacket all seasons, hates having breakfast ermm. looks cute when blushing or frowning.' Izumi paused and started giggling, 'Naughty naughty Izumi! Isn't Kouichi good enough for you?' Izumi punched her own head and attracted Kouji's attention. Kouji stared at Izumi as if she was a mad girl somehow.
'Mad girl on the loose,' Kouji rolled his eyes. Good Kouji. If Xiao Quan hear this you're dead meat. Kouji shuddered at the thought. scary. She would tie him up to a tree and started tickling him with a leaf. "Mind your own business" She would say. 'All right, I will,' Kouji thought with a sigh, taking a quick glance at Izumi.
'Ok now for the differences. Can't find it! Arh Izumi! Rack your brain! Rack your brain! If you can't find any that means Kouji is Hui Er! Wait. Where did that come from?' Izumi thought as she racked her brain some more, 'ARH! No matter what I still couldn't find their differences!'
"Erm. When are we going to reach your house?" Kouji asked, tapping Izumi's shoulder, he still couldn't bring himself to calling her Izumi. But why?
Izumi snapped out of her thought and looked around, "Sorry. Should have turned left at that turn just now," Izumi stuck out her tongue in guilt while Kouji sweat dropped. "Nevermind! Walking is exercise!" Izumi smiled, covering her mistake, "Let's go! One two! One two!" Izumi marched. 'Exercise huh?' Kouji forced a smile as he followed behind Izumi.
After a few minutes, they reached Izumi's house. Before Kouji went off, Izumi placed a soft kiss on Kouji's cheek, "Merry Christmas, Christmas wolf!" Kouji blushed.
Izumi giggled, "Actually that was the nickname I gave my first crush, but I guess since he's not here, I will give you the nickname?" Before Kouji could even said anything, Izumi knocked on the door and Izumi's mom appeared, hugging Izumi, "Oh Izumi! Where did you go yesterday? I was so worried! You must be Kouichi, Izumi's boyfriend right?" Izumi's mom asked, turning at the blushing Kouji.
Kouji and Izumi sweat dropped. "I am Kouji Minamoto, although I looks like Kimura, I am still Kouji," Kouji said in a cold tone, "If you excuse me, I need to go!" Kouji turned and ran towards the opposite direction.
"What's wrong with him?" Izumi's mom muttered, holding Izumi close to her side, "Anyway for your you-know-what." Izumi's mom narrowed her eyes and grinned at Izumi. Izumi shivered as she looked at her mom's eyes. scary.
*With Kouji*
"Why do I have to look like Kimura?" Kouji said out aloud as he walked on towards his home but soon shook off the thought, 'But before that, I am still confused. Should I tell her? But I don't want her to make any difficult choices. I know it would be selfish of me when I know that you had Kouichi and now I reappeared in front of you.' Kouji looked at the sky and smiled, "Merry Christmas Yuki no Tenshi."

But I think it's too late *cries again* Anyway I don't regret that I made Kouji cold, I can't find a good explanation why. But I hope this will do, he was frustrated because he kept moving to new school, just say he despise the people. I know it's not a good one.
