Chapter 2
The Next Day . . .
Zoe's POV
Dear Diary,
I can't believe that Takuya atually likes Joyce! My best friend, Joyce! Why? I don't get it. I mean, Joyce is pretty, she has the exact same long blond hair that hung over her waist as I do. Except that she dressed like a tom-boy. Uh! She's always wearing jeans and lots of boy clothes. If she wears dresses or skirts and put a little makeup, she'll be a lot prettier. I don't even know if Takuya is her type.
The other thing that I cannot believe is that I promised Takuya to put up good words for him in front of Joyce! I mean, can't Takuya do this by himself? He's such a coward, but this is my idea! Oh, me and my big mouth. Can't my mouth shut up for just a minute? Oh well, it's my idea anyways and I have to do what I gotta do.
I'm not sure if Joyce will like him back, but I think she needs a total makeover to make Takuya faint! If she doesn't like him, then it's his bad. Takuya really counted on me for these things because I'm his only friend that is a girl!
Well, I've gotta go to school now, Diary, bye! Oh, and I have to make one quick call. See ya! I can't wait for the dinner with Kouji and his mysterious brother.
NORMAL POV
Zoe picked up the receiver that is sitting on her drawers beside her bed. Then she dialed Joyce's phone number quickly.
"Come on, Joyce. Pick it up!" Zoe mumbled to herself.
"Hello?" It was Joyce, Zoe was relieved.
"Hey Joyce! It's me, Zoe."
"Oh hi!" She said happily. "What's up?"
"Listen," Zoe ordered. "I need you to bring a black miniskirt and a red sweater."
"Why?" Joyce asked curiously
Uh oh! Zoe thought. Got to thing of a good reason for this.
"Eh . . . don't you want to show everybody that you're a beautiful girl?" Zoe answered quickly.
"Why today?" Joyce asked confusedly, then she kinda get the idea. "Is it because to show off to the boys?"
Zoe wanted to yelled, "no!" but instead she said, "eh . . .yeah. kind of. Just bring those two things plus your long black boot and I'll bring my bag of makeup."
"Makeup?" Joyce said. "No way, not in a million . . ."
"Just so what I tell you to do before school starts!" Zoe suddenly interrupted her. "Now we don't have that much time, I'll meet you at your locker in fifteen minutes, okay?"
"Okay, whatever." Joyce answered.
Then, they both hung up the phone and Zoe quickly put on her shoes and her backpack and heading out for the door.
"Bye mom, bye dad!" Zoe yelled. Then she quickly rushed outside.
"Bye honey!" Her mom shouted. "Just don't slam the . . ."
The door was slammed pretty hard.
". . .the door," her mom finished saying.
AT THE SCHOOL . . .
"Hey Zoe!" Kouji came up to her locker and planted a quick kiss on her lips. "What's the big rush?"
"It's makeover time!" Zoe said happily.
"Uh?" Kouji asked confusedly.
"I'll tell you later at lunch, just go get J.P. to eat with us, today." Then, she grabbed a small bag from her backpack , closed her locker. "Bye Kouji." She gave him a quick kiss on his cheek.
"Ok, but don't forget . . ." Kouji got interrupted by Zoe.
"Tonight's dinner with your brother!" Zoe said. "I know." Then she rushed out the hallway and within a second, she was no where in sight.
Kouji shook his head with a smiled. "Oh, Zoe."
"You ready?" Zoe smiled at Joyce, holding up her small bag of makeup.
"Yes." Joyce smiled back, holding up her bag of clothes and a long black boot. "Just don't put too much make up, okay?"
"Sure, now let's go!" Zoe grabbed her hands and ran into the girl's washroom.
"Slow down!" Joyce yelled happily.
"There is no time, now hurry up and get chang!" Zoe said.
After Joyce had finished changing, she came out of the bathroom, and did a pose in front of Zoe. They both laughed out loud.
"You look beautiful!" Zoe screamed. "With the little touch of makeup, you'll be even prettier!" Then she held up a pink lip gloss.
"Just be careful . . ." Joyce trailed off.
"Not too heavy on the makeup," Zoe finished her sentence. "I know."
Joyce shook her head with a smile.
Zoe applied some foundation on her face. Then she used her pink lip gloss on her lips. Finally, she used a light blue eyeliner on her.
"You said not too much makeup and not too heavy on it, so here you are, the new Joyce!" Zoe said.
Joyce looked at herself at the mirror. Her expression was blank. Then she laughed.
"What's wrong?" Zoe asked.
"Oh, than you Zoe!" She screamed. "This is a good idea. Now I look prettier!"
"You bet!" Zoe said happily. "Maybe you and I can go shopping tomorrow to pick out some makeups and outfits. Remember, no tom-boy clothes."
"You bet!" Joyce laughted. "This is the new me!" She then hugged Zoe. "Thanks, Zoe."
"You're welcome. Besides, what are best friends are for?" Zoe smiled. "Now, let's go and show the boys who you really are!"
"Let's go." Joyce laughed. Then together, they walked out of the washroom and went to their classes.
KOUJI'S POV
It was after the third period, Kouji was trying to spot J.P., and he saw him near the water fountain. He called out, "J.P.!"
J.P turned around and saw Kouji was calling him. He smiled at him. "Hey buddy!"
"Listen, J.P.," Kouji said. "Zoe wanted us to join her for lunch."
"But don't we always?" J.P. asked confusedly.
"She said it's something very important and she doesn't want us to go anywhere." Kouji replied.
"Hey! I need to talk to you about something." J.P. whispered.
"What is it?" Kouji asked curiously.
Then J.P. pulled him to his locker.
"Lately, Zoe been hanging out with Takuya a lot."
"So?" Kouji asked. "They're just friends."
"No, you don't understand. Once I saw them speaking something to each other, real closely. Now will you do that if you're a friend? They must have some secrets."
Kouji tried not to believe him. "I trust Zoe, and I don't think she's cheating on me." Kouji doesn't even know why he's defending her.
"Well, anyways, just be careful." J.P. warned.
"J.P., I know you're a great friend, but I don't think you need to worry too much."
"Ask Takuya at lunch time."
"Sure." Kouji answered. "Now let's go down to the lunch room and eat. I'm hungry."
"Sure." Together, they walked toward the cafetaria.
I hope I'm right about this, Kouji thought. But I know that Zoe won't do that. Will she?
TAKUYA'S POV
"Are you ready to go?" Takuya asked impatiently.
"Yeah!" Zoe said. She collected her books and walked out of the class with Takuya quickly.
"So, how's Joyce?" Takuya suddenly asked.
Suddenly, Zoe started to laugh.
Takuya stared at Zoe with a weird look. "What's so funny?"
"Oh Takuya, you should see her pretty face and her outfit!" Zoe laughed.
"What are you talking about?" Takuya asked.
Zoe rolled her eyes. "Didn't you saw her today?"
"No, is something wrong?"
"No, is just that I gave her a total makeover and she promised herself that she's not going to be a tom-boy no more." She continued. "Oh, there is tons of cuties are surrounding her."
Suddenly, Takuya's face grew red. He's not blushing, he's mad! Zoe stopped laughing and she stared at Takuya with her hand covering her mouth.
"Oops!"
"Zoe!" Takuya said ferocioulsly.
"Sorry," Zoe said nervously.
"You better."
"Maybe this is a challenge? For you?" Zoe said quickly. "So . . . you know how it's feel that there's tons of guys aftering her?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Nothing." Zoe paused for a moment. "Are you still mad at me?"
Takuya sighed. "It's okay Zoe." Then he patted her arms softly. "At least you helped me."
Zoe smiled. "Hey, why don't you go down to the cafetaria and eat with Kouji and J.P. first."
"Where are you going?"
"Get Joyce to eat with us." Zoe winked at him. "This is your chance!"
"Okay, see ya." Takuya said, then he rushed to the cafetaria.
Zoe rushed to Joyce's locker and saw Joyce was still there. She came rushing toward her full of happiness.
"So, how was your day?" Zoe teased.
Joyce turned around and saw Zoe was there. She was so happy to see her. "Oh hi, my day is perfect!" Joyce continued. "There are lots of guys asked me out, plus my crush!"
Uh oh, Zoe thought. This is not good.
She was unsure if her crush was Takuya or not. So she asked, "who is your crush?"
"It's Jake! The cuttest guy on earth!" Joyce screamed.
Zoe's smiled faded, she could not believe what a big mess she made. "He asked you out?"
"Yes, he asked me out! Aren't you happy?" Joyce asked.
Zoe gave her a fake smile. "What about Takuya?"
"What about him?" Joyce asked confusedly.
"He is gorgeous. He won a lot of awards and trophies!" Zoe continued without taking a breath. "He is very kind, he cared about people, and he is so awesome!"
"What are you trying to say here?" Joyce asked.
"I heard that he has a crush on someone." Zoe answered quickly.
"Who is it?" Now Joyce is getting interesting.
"Someone who has long blond hair, somone who's her best friend, and she dressed VERY PRETTY today." Zoe tried to gave her some clues, but her expression is still a blank.
"I wonder who she is." Joyce stared at Zoe with a big grin. "Is it you?"
Zoe wanted to explode right now. "No!" She screamed. "Someone's name begin with a letter J and ends with a letter E!"
Joyce was still clueless. "Hmm . . . I wonder who she is." Then she turned to Zoe. "I'm getting hungry, let's go down to the cafetaria and grab something to eat."
Okay! I give up! Zoe thought.
She then followed Joyce down to the cafetaria.
ZOE'S POV
How can you be so clueless, Joyce! It's you! Takuya have a crush on you!!! You are so blind. Sure Jake is cute, but Takuya is your "perfect guy"!!!! Oh, Takuya is gonna so kill me. What should I do now?
OVER AT THE LUNCH ROOM . . .
"Hey Takuya," Kouji greeted him as he walked toward their table.
"Have you guys seen Zoe? Cause she told me that she is eating with you guys." Takuya asked.
Kouji grew silence, then J.P. tapped behind his back to signal Kouji.
Kouji cleared his throat. "Uh, Takuya?"
"Yeah?" Takuya said, then he grabbed his sandwich and begin to eat.
"What's going on between you and Zoe?" Kouji asked. "You two have be hanging out with each other a lot."
Takuya froze. He dropped his sandwich on his tray. "Well . . . I uh . . ."
"Hey you guys!" Joyce said. Then she placed her lunch plate and sat across Takuya. Zoe sat down beside her.
Takuya noticed that Zoe was sad.
"Are you okay, Zoe?" Kouji suddenly asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine." Zoe said.
"Zoe, you've got to help me to pick an outfit for my date." Joyce asked excitedly. ] "A date?" Takuya asked "With who?"
"It's Jake. Jake Kendall!"
"What!" Takuya yelled.
"Calm down, Takuya." J.P. said.
Takuya flashed Zoe an angry stare. He mouthed, "what's happening here?"
Zoe mouthed back, "I'm sorry!"
"Anyway Zoe, will you please help me?" Joyce asked. "How about tomorrow after school?"
"Eh, that sounds great!" Zoe faked another smile to her.
"Great!" Then she got up the table. "I have to go see Jake right now. See ya!"
"Bye!" They all said.
After Joyce left, Takuya gave Zoe an evil glare. "Okay, what happened to her?"
"I'm sorry, I really am sorry. Please forgive me?" Zoe said nervously.
"Can someone please tell me what's going on here?" Kouji shouted.
"Yeah, Kouji's a bit jealous here!" J.P. cried out.
"No, I do not!" Kouji protested.
"It's okay, Kouji. It's all my fault." Zoe said sadly and calmly. Then she begin to explain the whole story.
"Why did you gave her a makeover at the first place?" Takuya asked.
"I said I was sorry!" Zoe said. "I just wanted Joyce to be prettier so you'll like her more."
"It's not what the outside counts, Zoe," Takuya begin to explain. "It's what the inside counts, you know. I like her personalities. Not her looks or what she wears."
"I'm sorry, Takuya." Zoe apologized. "Takuya, chill. It's not her fault." Kouji said calmly.
Takuya sighed. "You're right, Kouji." Then he stared at Zoe. "I'm sorry. I know this girl-chasing was suppose to be my job. Not yours. You've helped me a lot. I shouldn't yell at you. Instead, I should say thank you."
"You're welcome. Besides what are friends for?" Zoe flashed him a big smile.
"From now on, I have to get my courage up and try to get to know her better and asked her out." Takuya said confidentedly.
Then, Zoe hugged him. "That's the Takuya we all know." She then pulled back and turned to look at Kouji. "So you were jealous, weren't you?"
Kouji's face turned red. "No." Then he turned his face around.
Everybody laughed. Suddenly, before Kouji turned around, Zoe planted a kiss on his cheek.
"What was that for?" Kouji asked.
"You were jealous because you cared about me. I appreciated." Zoe said.
"Hey, no problem, and I always be here with you forever." Kouji smiled at her.
"Well, not forever. We still have to go to universities, right?" J.P. asked.
"Right," Zoe said. "Hey, why don't we meet here after university?"
"Sure," Kouji said. "But where?"
"Let's all decide the day after our assembly." Takuya suggested.
"Sure!" The rest of them agreed.
Kouji turned to Zoe and said, "oh, and don't you forget that . . ."
". . .tonight 6'o clock, come to my house for a dinner with my brother." Zoe finished his sentence. "I know, you've already mentioned it aobut 1 million times already."
Then, everybody laughed. **************************************************************************** ***On next time, Zoe can finally meet Kouji's twin brother and she'll be shocked. Does Joyce have any feelings for Takuya??????? Find out on the next chapter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
