Chapter 3

Jealous, Much?

It seemed like a normal day. Except for that Dark had gotten a cold. It wasn't until Riku saw her mortal enemy was that it turned out to be an annoying day.

I should check on Dark… I mean, it's not everyday he gets sick… she thought while she was riding to school. She turned a corner, already knowing where Dark's house was by heart. She had gone to go there a few times when Risa was going out with him.

She was surprised to see that someone was already near his house. She stopped to see a blonde (1) perched on his doorstep. Riku watched as Cindy knocked on the door and Dark opened it.

"Oooh, Darky! I hope you're OK!" (2)she said, her blue eyes shining.

Dark looked around, unsure is she was talking to him. He hadn't ever been called 'Darky'. Don't get him wrong, he was a playboy and everything, but he wasn't into sluts and blondes. Blondes seemed to klutzy, and sluts always made the first move. She threw her hands around him. "Oooh, come back to school soon!" she said in a cooing voice.

Riku growled. Is he just going to let her hug him? That jerk!

Dark saw Riku and gave her a look that said Help! Riku crossed her arms about her chest. Oh please! A cold can't make him that weak! Or can he?

Dark made a face like he was about to throw up. Riku was about to go help him, but was interrupted by a cold hand on her shoulder. She jumped back and saw a familiar face. (3)

"Oh, Krad!"

Yes, the forgotten character. He's returned. Riku, glancing at Dark and then Krad, looked at her watch. She immediately thought of a lie.

"Ahh! I'm going to be late!" she said, rushing past Cindy. Cindy got her leg caught by the bike and fell down, hitting the wheel of the bike. She got up, her face covered in dirt.

Riku smiled triumphly. She made it to school, out of breath. Cindy came in after her, a few specks of dirt still on her face.

"Today," the teacher announced, "we will be doing a project. I've assigned three people to a group. You'll be doing a report on Japanese culture."

"The first group – Daisuke, Risa and Satoshi. The next group – Yuuji, Miyuki and Ritsuko."

Riku didn't pay attention to the group, but her head shot up when she heard the teacher announce that her, Dark and Cindy were in the same group. Cindy's head shot up too.

They both turned their heads when Dark walked in the room, coughing. Dark looked at both of them in confusion.

I can't believe it! He doesn't think of it as a big deal! And on top of it, he leaves m eating lunch here, alone!

She felt a body sit down next to her. She assumed it was Dark, and was about to bite his head off. She turned to see Krad.

"Oh! I thought you were Dark."

He didn't respond to that. Riku thought it was the wrong thing to say.

"Uh…" Riku turned, and noticed how close Krad was. She blushed. Far off, Cindy and her clique of prisses (4) looked at Riku and Krad.

"She's such a slut! Hitting on Dark and Krad!" Cindy yelled.

The other girls nodded, agreeing.

"I heard," one of the five girls said, "That she had an abortion!"

All the girls gasped. (5)

"Seriously?"

"Yeah!"

They turned their attention to Dark walking to Riku. Cindy and her girls ran to Dark.

"Darky! You know your so-called girlfriend had sex with your brother, right!"

Dark sweat dropped. Sluts and lies…

"It's true! I saw her when she was pregnant!" Cindy lied.

Dark did turn his attention, however, to Riku and Krad. She.. looked happy with him. He stood there for a moment, admitting to himself they could be a genuine couple.

Authors Note: Shortness! Check for an update later…
