Special Note: this is NOT a Megumi friendly ficlet, so if you're offended
by what I make her out to be...don't say I didn't warn you.
Chapter Two: Misao Becomes an Actress and a Maid
I cringe inwardly. "It's nice to meet you, Aoshi-san" I stuff my hand into my pocket and frown. He nods a bit, and then takes off his hat and scarf. Wow...what a hottie! OH...MY...GOD did I seriously just think that that JERK could be a hottie?!...ok yea so he's hot...he's still got the personality of a balding rat. I smirk silently at my new nick-name for Aoshi-san. Then I hear him talking. "I would rather you call me Shinomori-san." Well, maybe he has SOME manners...but only when it's convenient.
"All-right, Shinomori-san." I smile a bit and ...well he doesn't smile back but he has less of an 'I'm above you' look and more of a 'well at least you don't smell' sort of look. I try a few more times to get some sort of emotion out of him, but give up and get off at my stop. "Bye Aoshi-sama" he almost corrects me but, for some reason bites his tongue and lets me off the hook.
I look at my watch and decide that it would be nice to sprint to school today, seeing as how its 7:26 and classes start at 7:30. Oh this day just keeps getting better and better. The first four classes go well enough, no major happenings. I make it to fifth class just as the bell rings and skid to a halt as I see who my teacher is. The woman in the blue coat. Megumi. I lower my gaze as I hand her a slip that tells her I'm her new student. She drags me to her side. What IS it with teachers at this school and wanting to embarrass me in front of whole classes?!
"Dearest students!!" she calls out to them, her voice dripping with sugar. Too sweet for my tastes thank you. "This is Misao-chan! A new student to Garden High!" the class applauds her as she discreetly shoves me toward a seat. I root myself to the floor as she gives a speech about being nice to new-comers and showing others how good you can really be and a whole lot of other crap that, from the way she acted on the bus, she didn't believe.
I can tell right now I'm not going to enjoy my drama class. "Alright class lets get started! Who wants to act out this commercial with me?" she skims the class for a student. Several 'me me!'s and 'oh oh oh!'s are shouted. I look down a bit; I'm just not ready to make a HUGE fool out of myself today...at least...not again. "Misao-chan! Please join me up here"
Insert Megumi's patented fake smile here. I smile and grit my teeth as I stand and go up front. She hands me a paper with script on it, I look it over; it looks like I'm trying to sell...fat-free soy ice-cream? What kind of pansies am I dealing with? "Misao-chan, you'll be girl one." I read my lines over a bit. "Ok" And the commercial begins.
Misao: "It's sure hot out today!" (Dead silence) (Megumi: why don't you try next time?) Megumi: "Why don't we go to that ice-cream shop over there?" (She points toward the door and the students applaud madly) Misao: (trys to sound really desperate and distraught) "But ice-cream is so fattening! And I'm lactose-intolerant!" (Some clapping) (Megumi: Little twit. NO ONE steals the light from me!)
Megumi: "then we'll go out and buy some Narns and Bobles Fat-Free Soy Ice- cream!" (Lots and LOTS of clapping) Misao: (sounds like she's just struck oil) "That's a GREAT idea!" (Insert Misao's patented fake-but-believable smile) (Hoots and hollers from the class as Megumi silently seethes)
Ok...that was different! At least they didn't laugh at me. "That was very good Misao-chan!" Megumi says, gritting her teeth a bit. Ok...maybe she isn't that bad. At least it's going to be easy for me to annoy her half to death. The bell rings and I'm off to math class. I walk swiftly down the hall and into my class. A teacher is there...and so is Aoshi-sama! Ok...not what I expected. I walk over and stand next to Aoshi-sama.
"Oh Makimachi-san! Um...I am Harutomo-sensei, your principal, and this is Shinomori-san, owner of the Aoiya." I greet them with a smile "ok...what did I do?" Harutomo-sensei looks at me in shock. "N-nothing...I had just heard of your predicament at ho-" I cut him off, "What predicament? What's the matter? Did something ha-" Then Aoshi-sama cuts me off, "No, nothing happened...he means your financial situation."
Financial situation..? What are they talking about?
I calm down a bit and let Harutomo-sensei continue. "You see, because of your unique situation, the school decided to help and got you a job, so we called Shinomori-san. He's graciously offered you a job as a maid at the Aoiya."
A maid...weird...maybe I'll look after Aoshi-sama....and then when he gets injured and I have to take of his shir- HEY! NONONONONONONO! He's going to be your B.O.S.S! But he's so- NO! Damn...sexy... ...you hate me don't you? I'm just more open about my womanly feeeeeelllllings
I feel myself blush lightly. Shit. "Oh...um...thank-you, Aoshi-sama." He nods as I bow and the principal seems slightly distressed about my calling him Aoshi-sama.
There's a slightly uncomfortable silence that I can't help but snap in half and stomp to a pulp. "So...what's the Aoiya?" The principal looks like he's just had a heart attack. "What?" I ask confusedly. Harutomo-sensei starts to talk but is silenced by Aoshi-sama raising his right hand. "It's my home, you'll be a maid there" My jaw hits the floor like a ton of bricks.
SOOOOO I WILL be looking after Aoshi-sama! You're so perverted! WHAT?! I didn't say anything! I swear...I'm SO going to kill you... Oh yea...that'll look normal... I hate you... glomp I lurve you too MiSaO-CHaN!
(A/N) MUAHA! Review for meeee! ;; next chappie will be funnier I promise!!
