Shigure: Raine-chan...I've read the second chapter and why does Ayame have all the cool scenes? Is he giving you some special favours that I don't know about?
Raine: (feeling sleepy) Huh?
Shigure: If he is, whatever he is giving you, I can give you ten times better!...Err, why am I always the only one here with you for the chapter intro?
Raine: Because out of the three I like you the most...
Shigure: (beams) Raine-chan!!
(flungs arms around writer, and a cloud of smoke poofs)
Shigure: (who has turned into a dog) woof
Chapter 2
Hatori stared at his timetable and wondered what he was doing in school...with all these people. He had never attended a public school before, he always had a home tutor and he liked it that way. People always made him feel uneasy and what if those strange creatures called girls tried to hug him, not that they would want to...but what if some accident occurred? Hatori shuddered at the thought of turning into a seahorse in this place. But then, this was the will of Akito, who for some strange reason he decided for him to go to a public high school, together with the other two Sohmas. He really doubted that he would get along with them. Whenever he saw the both of them together, they were always giggling madly and striking sexy poses for each other. He really wondered how it was possible to derive so much joy from another person. Even though they were also inflicted with this terrible curse, they always looked so happy, while he found it so strenuous to even smile.
Unknown to Hatori, the two sohmas in question were actually peeping at him from behind the lockers frantically whispering to each other.
"I say we just approach him and say 'hi'," barked Shigure.
Ayame shook his head stubbornly and hissed, "This is our first time addressing the deep Tori-san, and we must make our first exchange memorable for him. A first introduction that will make our grandchildren and great grandchildren talk about in their slumber parties with amplified awe. Yes! It shall be known as the Super Amazing Ayame Intro!"
"Why is it always about you?" sighed Shigure.
"Excuse me? Do you know where is the science lab?" asked a husky voice
Both Ayame and Shigure jumped out of their skins when they saw Hatori standing right in front of them.
Shigure quickly looked at Ayame. Ayame had turned a deep red and looked like he was choking. Shigure smiled idiotically at Hatori and pointed to his right.
"Over there," he said, feeling a sweatdrop.
"Thank you," said Hatori and went off in that direction.
Ayame gasped for deep breaths of air and could feel tears rushing down from his eyes.
"I am so ashamed of myself, I couldn't even be the guiding light to our poor wandering soul. What kind of best friend am I?" Ayame sniffed and looked at his friend. "Shigure, he's gone, why do you still have that stupid unsexy smile on your face?"
"Anooo....I think I gave him the wrong direction," said Shigure scratching his head. Ayame collapsed onto the floor.
Suddenly a loud thumping noise was heard from behind. A bespectacled scrawny guy from the student council was marching angrily towards them.
"What are you two freshman doing lurking around the corridors when you should be having classes?!" boomed bespectacled scrawny guy, "Which class are you from?" he demanded, spraying his saliva all over them.
Shigure could sense trouble coming. But Ayame just smiled at the angry student council member. Shigure noticed a slight flick of Ayame's wrist. He knew what was coming next; Ayame was going to unleash one of his "secret weapons" that always manages to get the two of them out of trouble. With one fine sweep, Ayame flipped his silvery hair, making sure that the golden rays of the sun illuminated every strand of his fine locks, causing a surreal glow to radiate upon him. He drooped down his lashes and pink bubbles seemed to appear at his background. Shigure stole a glance at the student council member and stifled a snigger. It worked, the scrawny guy was totally awestruck and his mouth gaped open.
"If you must know, I belong to 1D," said Ayame majestically, looking down at his unworthy subject.
"1D?...you...you should be having chemistry now...Come with me, I'll...I'll show you where it is," he stammered, guiding the two to the correct room.
Ayame merely nodded but gave a secret wink to Shigure who showed a peace sign in return.
Upon reaching their destination, a terrible thought occurred to Shigure. Chemistry? Wouldn't that be in the Science Lab? The student council member opened the door of the science lab for them, causing the both of them to come face to face with Hatori who stared back at them unblinkingly.
Shigure had a mad desire to run back home and hide under his bedsheets, but he got distracted by Ayame who had flung his arms around him and was clutching him so tightly that he couldn't breathe.
"So scary..." whimpered Ayame, burying his face in Shigure's chest.
"Ahem!" said the Chemistry teacher, glaring at the both of them, "You must be Ayame and Shigure Sohma, go share the lab table with Hatori, since you are both late and there isn't any other seats left."
Both Ayame and Shigure faced the ground and walked timidly to Hatori's table. Ayame pushed Shigure to the seat next to Hatori.
"Erm..." said Shigure, biting his lip, "I'm sorry I gave you the wrong direction just now,"
"It's okay," said Hatori, "I actually knew where the science lab was,"
Shigure looked up at Hatori in surprise. Hatori gave a small smile and Shigure felt the wind being knocked out of him. He smiled back in return.
"Did I miss something here?" butted in Ayame, destroying the sweet mood between them.
