Chapter Two
Fuji turned back, only to see Eiji, along with Oishi
"Hey, nice to see you here," Fuji greeted when she saw the pair. Oishi is a boy with raven black hair and egg-shaped head. She turned around and walked towards the pair with Saeki who followed closely behind, hoping that this would make Atobe cancelled his plan to buy those ridiculous dresses. There were even gowns in the pile.
"Don't even think about getting me to cancel my plans, for ore-sama never cancel any plans," Atobe warned haughtily and Fuji felt the urge to get a stick and bang her head to it.
"Cancel what plans?" Eiji asked to Fuji out of curiosity. Why was she here with the leader of the student council anyway? A date?
"Nah, plans to go to Africa probably," Fuji retorted grimly. "He's got a date at Zimbabwe," she added as grimly as before.
"Oh no, ore-sama doesn't shrink that low as to date a girl from that country," Atobe replied haughtily, again, totally missing the grim tone Fuji used.
"Doesn't he know sarcasm?" Fuji muttered under her breath. "Oh, anyway," she said, quickly getting into her usual cheery self, "We've met here, so why don't we hang out for the rest of the day?" she suggested.
"A fairly good suggestion, I must admit, and then let's go to a café nearby," Atobe butted in.
"Do I even ask you?" Fuji rolled her eyes.
And that was how they ended in a gothic yet elegant café at the ground floor of the mall, shopping bags at both side of chair, and five cups of coffee served in front of them.
"So, what brings you here?" Eiji asked, being his usual sociable self. "You said you didn't want to go to the mall," he said matter-of-factly.
"Well, yeah, but I did mention something about appointment with someone, right?" Fuji asked back and shot a dark glare at Atobe's direction when he mentioned the word 'someone'.
"Oh, and who's that someone?" Eiji asked, as dense as usual. He couldn't even point out the obvious!
"The crazed man to the right of me," Fuji muttered.
"Who?"
"No, I mean Atobe," she answered, feigning an innocent smile.
"Oh, were you three shopping?" Eiji asked again, even though Oishi had asked him to stop asking strange things, or asking the obvious for this case.
"Isn't it obvious?" Fuji blinked for a several times. "Well, we're shopping for, uh, clothes," she answered.
"I see."
"And you're shopping too, I suppose?" Fuji asked.
"Yeah, we're buying a doll," Eiji answered.
"Isn't that Kumagoro?" Fuji raised an eyebrow at the sight of a pink stuffed bunny.
"Yeah, you know him?" Eiji asked as his face brightened.
"Of course," Fuji smiled.
"Are you a fan of Sakuma Ryuuichi?" Eiji asked.
"You are?" Fuji asked back.
"Well, I am," Eiji answered.
"Yeah, I am," Fuji tried to suppress a grin. How fun it is to trick people.
"I bought it for Daigoro's friend," smiled Eiji.
"Daigoro? Who's that?"
"His giant teddy bear," answered Ooishi.
"Mou, Ooishi! That's my answer!" Eiji pouted. And Ooishi apologize. Fuji chuckled for their attitude.
"Oh, and I was thinking about returning a favor," Fuji started as she touched her chin with her forefinger.
"What favor?" Eiji asked, raising an eyebrow and his forehead formed a frown.
"Are you two going steady?" she asked, and at this point the pair both blushed in unison, "Well, you asked me before and I was just thinking about asking it back," she added quickly.
"Ah, we're- we're- something like that, I suppose," Eiji muttered and Fuji merely smiled.
It's really fun to trick people.
--------------------
The next day, at St. Ivalice High School…
"Ohayo Fuji!" Eiji greeted cheerfully as he took his seat.
"Ohayo," Fuji replied with a smile.
"Yesterday was fun, we really should go out together again," Eiji suggested.
"Yeah, maybe next time."
"Fuji," a voice called.
"Yeah, what is it?" Fuji asked as he eyed Saeki who looked… well, look like Saeki. She didn't know how to describe the expression on Saeki's face.
"Atobe called you, he asked you to come to his office after school," he said as he took his seat.
"Why would he want to call me?" Fuji wondered out loud.
"I don't know, he didn't say anything about it," Saeki said.
"Okay, I'll go there after school," Fuji nodded.
--------------------
After school…
Fuji knocked on the door leading to the student council room. She was curious about the reason why Atobe had called her, but was more disturbed by random whistles that sounded like they came from the walls of the corridor.
When he heard the command to come in, she turned over the door knob and entered the room, noticing that there's no one in the student council room except Atobe himself.
What is this, an Atobe room? She thought grimly as she moved forward and took a seat on the couch.
"Well, I want to inform you about the party tomorrow night," Atobe said.
"What party?" Fuji asked, "There was no party at this time last year."
"Yeah, I know, it's specially designed for this year, the two hundred and twentieth anniversary of this school," he answered, "You should be thankful to experience this, but oh wait, there will be this kind of parties too next year," he added.
"Just say that you want people to see me wear gown! That's no way to use your position as the leader of the student council!" Fuji frowned.
"Well, I don't misuse my position, people have been asking me to finally make this party happen," Atobe defended himself, but Fuji won't hear anything he say. Instead, she stood up and walked away a bit hastily, banging the door behind her.
"Hey watch what you're doing! You'll have to pay for that if it breaks down!" Atobe shouted from inside of the room.
"I don't care about that stupid door!" Fuji shouted back fiercely, and without him knowing he bumped into someone, a tall boy with russet brown hair and glasses.
