note- Hello everyone. This is Aki, and I wanna clear up a few
things. A) This is not a Mary Sue. Aki is not me. there are different
types of my character Aki, and this is one of them. She's actually
nothing like me in this fanfic. This fanfic is to just let some
feelings go. Some fangirlishness I just can't keep inside! And I
mean, I've seen much worse. So if you think this is a Mary Sue,
please, go die. :D B) I know the chapters are short. I wanted to try
to see how it turns out with a story with a lot of short chapters.
And C) I do not have spell check. So sue me. :D but I want to thank
everyone who gave me positive comments, it really drives me to write
more. And all apologies for taking such a long break on this.
Chapter 3- To the hotel
The next few days went by quicker than Daisuke had ever imagined. A lot of thinking and wondering. "Tell him what?" was one of the most popular questions in his head. "Does Dark know something I don't?" was another. And alas, was the day of the trip. Aki was very excited. She was always telling her friends, "I've never been on a class trip, my old school had a very small budget. We never did anything fun."
They arrived at the station around 2:00 in the afternoon to catch the bus. Daisuke, late like usual, ran as fast as he could to get at the end of the line to get on the bus, bags in hand. He tossed his luggage to the bus driver who was loading them in, almost knocking him over. "Sorry!" He apologized, climbing on to the bus. The rest of the class, including Aki, was on already. Aki, sitting alone at the back of the bus, waved to the red-headed boy.
"Daisuke, sit with me!" She laughed. "We are roommates." Daisuke, being the gentlemen he is, accepted the request and sat down, letting out stressed breaths. Aki peered to him, curious. "Is everything okay? You look tired and stressed." She commented, a worried look on her face.
"Oh, I'm fine, don't worry about me." He waved his hands in the air. The conversation went silent as the bus started to move, Aki sighing and looking out the window. Once in a while, the two red-haired teens would look at each other, blush, and turn their heads away. But that was about it untill Aki broke the silence. She got out a slip of paper, showing it to Daisuke.
"This is our schedual for the trip...It seems tonight we just stay in our hotel rooms, but there are some optional games they are holding, and a dance at 8:00 tonight." She said, looking over the schedual. "I don't like games, so I'll probably just sit in the hotel room most of tonight. What are you gonna do?"
"Ah, I don't know. I might go if Takeshi makes me. He probably will...and the dance..." Daisuke looked to where Riku was. She was laughing, sitting next to Risa as usual, and talking to her friend at the other side of the isle. He sighed. "Maybe I can dance with Riku..." the thought twirled through his head.
"Eh, guess I'm going to be spending a lot of time with my CD player tonight." Aki joked, giggling slightly. "Don't like dances, either." She mumbled. Daisuke looked at her.
"Why don't you like dances, Aki?"
"I don't know, probably the fact I've never really had anyone to dance with. If I ever had to go, my friends and I would just sit down and eat the whole time." Aki shrugged, lowering her eyelids and putting the schedual away. Daisuke looked at her sad face.
"...I'll...dance with you. If you want to go, that is." The words came out before Daisuke could even think. His eyes widened and he blushed madly. Aki's eyes lit up, almost confused.
"Go with me? But don't you have someone else to go with?" She asked, staightening her posture.
"Not...really." Daisuke smiled. "We'll have lots of fun. Do you want to? We are friends and all." Daisuke held out a hand, but Aki didn't take it. Instead, she gave him a hug.
"Thanks alot, I've never danced with anyone before!" She laughed, pulling away. Daisuke looked at Riku again, who had eyed the hug, her face turned red and almosr depressed as she did. Daisuke sighed, but felt excited at the same time.
"We have arrived at the hotel, everyone! Your bags will be in the hotel shortly, and I have everyone's room number and keys right here. I'll give them to you when you get off the bus. Once you have your number and key, go straight to your room." Said the teacher, holding slips of paper in hand with room numbers on them. As Aki and Daisuke walked out, Aki took the slip, reading it. Daisuke took the key. "Room A-46! That's on the second floor, how cool. Let's go." Aki walked with silent Daisuke into the hotel, eyeing how beautiful it was. "Four-star...It's gotta be a four-star hotel. This is just gorgeous..." The teen whispered.
Not long after they were riding the elevator. "This is so exciting." Aki commented. Daisuke nodded in agreement.
"It is." He said. they got off the elevator, looking at the numbers above the doors to find their room. Daisuke had the key in his hand and found the room, unlocking the door. They walked in, Aki almost jumping for joy in her excitement. She ran and jumped on the bed, claiming it as hers. But then she realized the number of beds in the room. Daisuke's eyes widened.
"T-there's...only...one bed...!" He laughed in disbeleif. Aki sat up, also laughing in disbeleif. They're faces were as red as their hair. Daisuke pointed to the floor. "I'm sleeping on the floor." He stated bluntly.
"I don't mind, you know, the bed's a lot more comfortable than the floor." Aki tried to say this without stuttering, trying to sound as mature as she could.
"No, no! I've slept on wooden floors before, I'm comfortable no matter what." He bent down, feeling the carpet. It was rough.
"...Well, if you change your mind, just come on up." Aki smiled, patting the bed, chuckling in embarrassment. This was way too much for her. First, rooming with a boy. Then, going to a dance with a boy. Now, maybe even sleeping in the same bed as a boy! It was overwhelming for the both of them.
"Well, you know what, I'll sleep on the floor. You deserve being on the bed, I'm the new girl, right?" Aki got off the bed, kneeling next to Daisuke on the floor. "Go ahead, I insist."
"You sure...?" Daisuke mumbled, staring at the comfortable bed.
"Yes, I'm positive."
"You're really nice, Aki. Thank you." He stared at Aki's smiling face as she accustomed herself to the carpet. Aki blinked, her violet eyes searching the floor. A knock on the door came, and Daisuke quickly ran up to it, opening the door. It was the bellhop with their bags. "Oh, thank you." He said, taking them and throwing the bags next to the bed. Aki got up, taking her luggage also. The bellhop grinned, bowing slightly, and leaving.
"Well. Just have to wait for the dance, then. That's in...only...five hours...oh, man!" Aki laughed at how long the day was going by.
