Chapter 10
The day had been muggy and hot, but right now at lunch, it was worse, yet that didn't stop Columbia.
The rumor had been going around that in the middle of lunch, Columbia was gonna stand on her table and take her shirt off so she was only wearing a sports bra. (A/N: Isn't she just the little rebel).
No one could confirm or deny that this was gonna happen because no one else knew. Not even her friends. They would all have to wait a little while longer.
The tension had grown as mid-lunch grew nearer, only a few people actually thought that she'd go through with it. Hiei was especially anxious for the fact that his girlfriend was gonna take her shirt off and show herself to others, whether she had anything on underneath or not.
'Where is she, I'm gonna...'
A silence grew as Columbia entered the lunch area. She had a normal pace, it didn't seem like she was in any hurry. Once at the table, Columbia took off her messanger bag and gave it to Hiei and climbed up on the table.
Everything seemed to stop and everyone turned their attention to Columbia.
As she stood on the table, she let out a laugh, a strange laugh. Then it happened, Columbia reached for the hem of her shirt and with one fluid motion, it was gone, the shirt was off.
Jaws dropped, people fainted, cat calls were thrown, but Columbia heard nothing. She climbed off the table and sat between Hiei and Yukina.
Yusuke being the perv that he is, just had to comment on Columbia's "performance". (A/N: I like to call it a stunt, it makes more sence that way.)
"Hey Red, you work out, 'cause your body is bangin'."
Columbia patted Hiei on the back signaling that he could maim Yusuke for that comment. Everyone ingnored Yusuke's calls for help and went back to what Columbia had just done.
"That took some guts Red."
"Nah, 'cause ya see Keiko, I lived in California for almost three to four years and this is how some of us dressed."
"Why didn't you tell me. I would have done that with you."
"Sorry Yukina, it was sudden. I just thought of it almost an hour and a half ago."
A crash breaks the conversation as they see Hiei give up on Yusuke, but Yusuke continues to run around like a chicken with it's head cut off.
Hiei sat back down by Columbia and started to take off his black button up t-shirt.
"Um, Hiei, what are you doing?"
He didn't answer, he just took off his overshirt and handed it to Columbia.
"We know you won't put your own shirt back on."
"Yeah, but now you're just wearing a very hot tanktop."
"Take it."
Columbia grabbed the shirt and started laughing.
"What?"
"I just think it's funny that we're both so small and we could wear each others clothes."
No one else laughed.
"I thought it was funny."
"You think death is funny."
"Shut up Kurama."
Everyone started laughing at that.
'So everyone thinks it's funny when I'm pissed.'
Columbia grabbed her bag and Hiei and left.
'Why does she drag me around like I'm her bitch?'
'Because I can. Ooh, freaky mind link thing.'
"Yeah, we're freaks."
"I want you to bite me again."
"What? Why?"
"Your first bite didn't scar."
"You want me to bite you 'cause you didn't get a scar?"
"Yeah, that about sums it up."
"You are crazy."
"Duh."
"Why do you always say that?"
"I dunno, force of habit."
"Well, that's a bad habit."
"No, you're my bad habit."
So to show her bad habit, Columbia grabbed the back of Hiei's nack with her right hand and brought his forehead to hers.
"Bad habits can be good sometimes."
Columbia's other arm wrapped around Hiei's neck as he wrapped his arms around her waist, but the embrace was cut short by a well, you'll figure it out.
"Mr, Jaganshi, Miss Minamino, my office, NOW!"
In the principal's office, Hiei and Columbia had already got there lecture and were now awaiting their punishment.
"Public display of affection is a week suspension."
Columbia's heart rate picked up and she started panicing. Hiei, on the other hand was, taking this rather well.
"I've contacted both of your parents and they're on their way now."
Now Hiei was in the same reaction mode as Columbia
'Not Hina.'
As they were dismissed to go wait for their parents, the panic didn't settle, this was gonna be a long week.
Yes, at my school you can get suspended for public display of affection (hugging, kissing, holding hands, etc) you can even get suspended for having a cell phone with you. I really hate my school, can't ya tell.
Well, it was hot again today, but I lived, the teachers actually opened windows and brought fans today, so we lived. HUZZAH!
It's funny when ya have insomnia, you always fall asleep in class and the teachers get pissed off, but when ya tell them what's really wrong they think you're crazy 'cause they're idiots. But hey, they let ya sleep anyway, so it doesn't matter. Maybe that's why I'm failing two classes, oh well.
All the cool teachers let ya listen to the radio during class and don't teach, no wonder I'm failing Biology. Yeah, that's it.
I'm out.
