Ehehe... yeah, well, I'm back. This fanfiction's going to be a series... sort of. I actually will complete this, even if it takes me a million years. This 'introduction' is just here to provide, well, an introduction to the story. It's all in Mimi's point of view. I will, however, post up the remaining chapters after I complete the whole story, or maybe when I'm done with 4 or so chapters ahead of what's currently posted up. Anyway, on with the introduction!
Introductory Chapter
Hello. My name is Tachikawa Mimi. I'm currently 17 years old and I attend Odaiba High School. I'm a third year student and it's almost the end of this school year! I can't wait to be a fourth year!
But aside from all that, I can't wait to graduate. If I ever do, that is... but enough about that! I'm currently in love with my best friend. Who's my best friend, you ask? He's none other than the infamous Ishida Yamato. You may have heard of him. He's from a local band called the 'Teen-age Wolves' in our city. Surprisingly, he's pretty famous and tons of girls all smother him with nonsense.
Nah, it doesn't really get to me. I've gotten used to it considering that I've been in love with him ever since we were 12. I pretty much liked him ever since we met... which was in Kindergarten. Hehe, let me tell you about that, shall I?
» Grade: Kindergarten; 13 years ago
I remember Yamato was somewhat of a loner. He wasn't really open towards anyone. Well, one day he was playing his harmonica in one corner of a classroom. I was new in class and knew absolutely no one. It was also somewhat hard since I started school a year earlier; I was 4, everyone else was 5.
But anyway, I saw Yamato in the corner. Not knowing his 'social problem' I walked over to him. "Hey, hey! You." I poked his arm lightly. In response, he glared at me, "What do you want?"
I frowned a bit and replied, "I think your music is vewy pwetty." "So?" he told me stiffly.
Urging him to speak more I asked, "I'm Mimi, what's your name?" Snorting a bit, he responded, "Ishida Yamato, but everyone calls me Matt."
"Okay Yamato!" I flashed a smile and he looked up at me in somewhat of a shock, "Huh!? But I just–"
I cut him off and asked him, "Can you pway a song for me while I sing?"
"No. You're stubborn."
"Gweat!"
"What–"
I grabbed his wrist and dragged him to the teacher; I asked her if we could sing in front of the class. Hahaha, I remember the look on her face, she couldn't believe that I was getting 'along' with the class' outcast. The teacher quickly nodded.
I grabbed Yamato's wrist again and took him to the middle of the classroom. Anyone could clearly see that Yamato was blushing, hehe. He had reluctantly performed with me and we were a hit... as much of a hit as we could be in a Kindergarten class, anyway.
After that it was recess, and I hung out with Yamato during it. "What're you following me around for?" He gruffly asked me.
"We're fwiends, right Yamato?" I said innocently.
"I don't remember saying that. And stop calling me that." "But I like you!"
I could clearly see he was surprised... and very embarrassed, "Huh?!" "Hehe, you're blushing, Yamato!" Turning away, he said, "Am not! And stop calling me Yamato! Jeez, you're so stubborn...."
» Rewind: Present
And basically that's how he and I became best friends. Weird, I know. And it's true, I am the only one who calls him by his real name, but he's used to it now.
There was a time when he had asked me who I liked, but I didn't say a word.
» Flashback: Who Do You Like?
Yamato and I were at the back of the school, where we usually have lunch at. All of a sudden he had asked me, "Hey, Mimi, have you ever been in love before?"
Shocked by his question, I stuttered out, "Wha–I–I guess you can say that..." He smirked, "Really? And who's this guy?"
I blushed, "N–no one..." He inched in closer to me, "Hmm... could it be... me?" and he pointed at himself.
Quickly, I came up with an alibi, "No way! Don't you know it's a rule not to fall in love with your best friend?" Cocking an eyebrow, he retorted, "Ehh? When was this rule enforced?"
"It's always been a rule, Yamato." I blatantly replied. "Hmm... I can't believe you don't love me... but I can say that I do like you, Mimi," he wickedly smiled at me while I turned a slight hint of red, "unless liking your best friend isn't allowed either."
» Time: Present
But that was some time ago, and that discussion's never come up again. I don't know if he was telling the truth or not.. but it's a nice thought, hehe. It would be nice if he was the first person I kissed. Yeah, I haven't been kissed at all, nor have I ever had a boyfriend. But I don't mind, just as long as I'm with Yamato, that's all that matters.
Come to think of it, he asked me to meet him behind the school today... and... oh my gosh! I'm late! Well, I have to go, maybe I'll see you around sometime!
» End Introduction
------------------
Err... I know I had a somewhat different introduction than this... but that was about a month ago and it's lost. So if you want this to be continued, either when it's totally complete, or if you just want the proceeding chapter after the next 4 chapters are done, then, you know, state it in your review saying so. And god damnit, don't flame me for making this a Mimato, SOMEONE. For goodness sakes, I practically wrote a Sorato and even killed Mimi off, so go read that one instead of calling me a name that doesn't even exist in the dictionary. Gosh people, sewiouswy.
