Chapter title: That Soft Look
Yay! Chapter 2 is finished!
Thankyou reviewers! I really LOVE reviews! If you read stories but don't review, then you stink! Just saying.
Disclaimer: I don't own Kodocha! Which really stinks! I only own the weird plot. (I forgot the disclaimer last chapter. Don't sue me!)
Anyways, here is the story. This is a shorter chapter then last time.
.....
Akito's view
Time to work, Akito thought to himself. He was a karate teacher. He could hardly stand the little brats he taught. He slid into his car, and started the engine.
He slid smoothly among the roads, thinking. He still didn't know how he felt about Rai. She was so sweet, and caring, but somehow, he still felt as if something was missing. He couldn't go back to Sana now though. Not after what they had been through.
"Damn" he said as he stared at the long line of cars in front of him. Traffic again. He was going to be late. He slammed his hand on the steering wheel. He had been late 3 times last week. His boss was getting mad.
When he finally reached the rundown building where he worked, he jumped out of the car and ran inside. He ran into the classroom where he taught and stared. Rai was there talking to the children.
"Rai?"
"Oh, Akito you're here! Great! I wanted to see if I could help out because I have a day off."
"Thanks" Akito couldn't believe this. Rai was soo sweet! He remembered Sana had done the same thing when she had a day off. He looked at Rai's face. She was smiling sweetly at a boy.
"Sorry. Why don't you start your lesson now?"
"That's okay." He looked around at his class.
"Good. Everyone's here."
Rai's view
Rai watched Akito's face as he taught his class. His face looked expressionless as usual, except there was a slight softness in his eyes, that usually wasn't there. She had noticed that on their dates, Akito seemed to have a glazed over look sometimes. He seemed to be staring off into space, or thinking about something, or someone, deeply.
"Now, let's do our breathing exercises." Akito said. Rai smiled at him, as he looked into her eyes. He looked at the ground, than looked back at her. His lips curled upwards slightly. Rai gave a humongous smile. He had actually smiled at her! This was a first. She was sure she and Akito would get along fine.
Sana's View
Sana was lying on her bed, staring at the ceiling in her room. Fuka was sitting on a chair beside her bed.
"Akito's a jerk. Don't get upset over him."
'But Fuka! I love him still"
"But he's moved on."
"I'm going to try to get him back."
"What? I don't think he'll like that."
"You're right. If only I could get the girl he's going out with now to go away, then I could have him back. Hmm. Should I make him jealous?"
"How would you do that?"
"I'd go out with Naozumi." Fuka stared at her friend in shock, who sat up quickly. She gave a sort of scary grin, and smiled. It's a perfect idea!
Sana smiled to herself. If she went out with Naozumi, surely he'd want her back, or at least he would go into a funk, and that other girl wouldn't be able to help him. Sana was the only one who could do that.
What was that other girls name anyways? Was it Rai? She would get her back for taking Akito away anyways. Suddenly, Sana filled up with intense anger. Who did Rai think she was? She couldn't have known Akito long, and suddenly she was his girlfriend? She wanted to hurt Rai, badly. She should NOT have messed with Sana Kurata.
Akito's view
"Class is over," Akito said. Rai stood up and touched his shoulder lightly.
"Do you want to take a walk?"
"Sure." They walked outside, cool air blowing their hair. Akito saw Rai shivering slightly, her arms crossed. He pulled off the sweater he was wearing and handed it to her.
"Really?" she said. He nodded. Why was it such a big deal to her to wear his sweater? She looked so small in it. The sweater was way too big for her. As she warmed, she let her arms drop to her side. They swung a little, as Rai opened her mouth.
"What was your childhood like?"
"My mom died giving birth to me. My dad never talked to me. My older sister called me a demon child." He looked again at Rai, to see her reaction. Her eyes were filling with tears.
"Really? I'm sorry." She said softly.
"It's not your fault." He reached over slowly, gripping her hand gently. She smiled, and took a step closer to him.
"Is it still that way?" Akito struggled, thinking of the right way to say it. How would she feel if he said that Sana made it all better?
"Well."
"That's okay. I don't need to know."
"What was your childhood like?"
"Oh, well. Not very good. I was on a bench, in a park. The people who found me put me in an orphanage, and I lived there for a while. The manager adopted me, but died a year later because of a heart attack. I lived in the streets for maybe a month, when a guy found me and I live with him now."
"Wow. At least you had a happy ending."
"You could say so." She took a step closer to him, leaning against his muscular body. He looked down at Rai. A familiar soft look filled his eyes. The one that was only there for Sana.
Rai's view.
Rai felt so safe with Akito. Safe right beside him. She felt as if she was meant to be there.
"Do you want to go home now?"
"Okay." She told him where she lived, and they walked to her house in a comfortable silence. When they reached her front door, Rai stepped away from Akito, pulling off his sweater. She handed it to him, and turned to go into the house. He held onto her arm though. She turned around, looking into his eyes.
Akito leaned forwards, and kissed her gently.
"Thank you," he whispered. He walked away, a lone figure, seeming to glow with light from the street lamps. They all seemed to be focused on him. Rai stood there, watching him leave, with a finger lightly touching her lips. She walked into her house in a haze, her finger still touching her lips.
In her room, she collapsed on the bed, thinking of Akito's face, looking at her with that soft look.

Sorry if that was a really short chapter. I didn't want to make everyone wait for a chapter, so I decided to make a short one. It takes me a while to make the chapters. I'm not going to update until I have 15 reviews now. I think that's fair!
Please review!!!!!
Now, I'm going to try to respond to the reviews now, and try to mention everyone that reviews. I'm sorry if I miss you, but if I do, I'll make sure I get you in the next chapter. This is my first time doing this, because I'm even more obsessed with reviews!
Sorana Rose: Thanks for reviewing! Yes, I'm going to keep writing, as you can probably tell because I made this chapter. I'm glad you liked it!
Frogfroggy5: Thanks! I'm glad you liked it! It is sort of an original plot, but it's kind of strange. I know some parts of it weren't very believable, but the plot just popped into my head and I had to get it out! I wasn't even going to put this on fanfiction but my friend convinced me.
Reviewer: Thanks! Did you really love it? *grins*
mx: Thanks! You said please review.did you mean please update? I've done that before.lol. That's okay though. I'm glad you liked my story!
Yay! Are you happy I did that? Just wondering. Anyways, I'll update as soon as possible, but I'll be pretty busy, so I may not be able to update as soon. Sorry the chapter was so short! Again, please review!!!
Yay! Chapter 2 is finished!
