"Hey Aya-kun,"I said, finishing braiding his hair.

"Yes. Furiko-chan?"he asked, turning his head. He smiled sweetly.

I paused. "Do you want to tell them? That we kissed?

"Well..."Aya-kun thought for a second."I wouldn't mind if Gure-san knew."

"He's the one who caused it to happen!"I said scoffing.

"You didn't like it?"Aya-kun asked, his smile turning into a frown.

"Eh?" I was surprised. "I like it! It's just...Haru-kun likes me."

"Really?" He turned the rest of his body to face me fully.

"Yeah." I hugged my knees and laid my head on them. "I...kinda like him back."

"Oh," Aya-kun said. He moved some hair out of my face.

I looked up, grinning. "But you see, after that kiss..." I giggled. "You're a good kisser, Aya-kun! Anyway, after that kiss, I really like you, too." I planted a kiss on his cheek. "But now I hate you both for giving me this problem!" I sighed and stood up from my spot on the floor, walking to my window, and gazed out of it.

"I"m sorry, Furiko-chan." I felt Aya-kun's arms wrapping around me. He held me tight for a second, then–

POOF!

I turned around quick to see a little white snake on the floor.

"Aw!" I squealed, picking his up and hugging him. "Aya-kun's so cute!"

Aya-kun laughed. "Not many people like snakes, Furiko-chan!"

I stopped my giggling and stared at him, a blank look on my face. "I don't." I smiled. "I just think you're so cute as a snake!"

"Furiko! I'm back!" Aiko's voice came from right outside my door. She pounded on it. "Don't you wanna know where I've been?"

"Uh, sure!" I gave Aya-kun the "shut up" sign by placing one finger in front of my lips. "Go hide," I whispered, "in my closet."

He nodded and slithered out of sight.

I opened my door and grinned at Aiko, but frowned when I saw the two other kids. One was a boy; he had brownish colored eyes and tan hair. The other was a girl; her hair was a sort of orange-tan color, while her eyes were a duller version of that color.

"Furiko! Meet Kisa Sohma–" Aiko nodded to the girl– "and Hiro Sohma!" She nodded to the boy.

I smiled. "Nice to meet you–" I quickly thought of nicknames for the two (I was on a roll with making them up!)– "Ki-chan, Ro-chan!"

"'Ro-chan'?" Ro-chan yelled. "What kind of name is that? My name is Hiro Sohma, not 'Ro Sohma'!"

"Calm down, Hii-kun," Shigure-san said, walking by. "So my dear Furiko-kun made a nickname for you. What's the big deal?"

My dear Furiko-kun...? I asked myself, a disgusted look on my face. "Hey, Shigu-kun, you don't know, do you? About me and the snake?"

He gave me a sly grin before leaving.

"Anyway," Aiko said, "Kisa-kun, Hiro-kun, this is my sister, Furiko!"

Ki-chan smiled. "It's nice to meet you, Furiko-san!"

"Eh, whatever." Ro-chan glared at me. "Don't call me 'Ro-chan', Furiko."

I rolled my eyes. "Okay, Aiko. Where have you been? Since you wanted to tell me so bad..."

Aiko beamed. "At Hiro-kun and Kisa-kun's house! A place called the Sohma Estate or Sohma Main House or something." She looked at Ki-chan, who nodded. "Yeah. There."

"Okay, then. Can I get back to what I was doing?" I asked.

"Sure," Aiko said. "Hey, what were you doing? Having sex with Yuki?" She grinned evilly.

"NO!" I yelled. "I don't like Yu-kun! And Shigu-kun's been rubbing off on you!" I slammed the door. "Hentai!"

POOF!

Smoke started emptying out of my closet.

"How convenient!" came Aya-kun's voice.

I rolled my eyes. "Don't come out, Aya-kun! I'll go get your clothes." I picked them up and opened the closet door. Aya-kun grabbed his clothes immediately.

I shut the door and sat on my bed. "Aya-kun!" I whined. "Shigu-kun knows!"

"Well, that's better than telling him, isn't it?" Aya-kun asked. "I mean, he would have found out anyway."

"That bastard," I growled. "How the hell would he have found out, anyway?"

"I don't know." Aya-kun finished dressing and came out.

I scoffed. "Anyway, he's rubbing off on my poor defenseless sister; Aiko thought I was having sex with your brother!" I sighed. "Yu-kun's downstairs, anyway; didn't she see him when she came in?"

Aya-kun grabbed my hand and smiled sweetly. "Aiko-kun was just joking, I'm sure. She probably did see Yuki on her way in."

"Hey, Aya-kun, I just thought of something," I said with a laugh, "I never thought of you to be romantic before, because you and Shigu-kun were always acting so annoying."

"Yo! Furiko!" Meaganu-kun yelled. "What the hell are you and Ayame doing up there? Having sex?" I could hear her and Seiya-kun snickering.

I growled. "Shut up, dammit! I was just braiding Aya-kun's damn hair!" I realized what I said. "No offense to you, Aya-kun!"

"None taken!" He gave me a kiss on the cheek.

"Come on." I opened the door. "Let's go downstairs, so my friends won't make fun of me any more." I grabbed his hand and we headed down the stairs.

We entered the room, and I froze. "H...Haru-kun?"

"Rumi-san?" Haru-kun stared at me. He was probably surprised that I was holding Aya-kun's hand after he told me he liked me.

"Haru-kun, it's not what you think!" I said, letting go of Aya-kun's hand.

Haru-kun glared at me, then at Aya-kun. He sighed, and regained his blank expression. "So, what was I thinking, Rumi-san?"

"Uh..." I paused. "I thought you thought that...me and Aya-kun were...er..." I laughed nervously. "Doing something romantic. But not to worry, Haru-kun! I was only up there braiding his hair. I pulled him down here so somebody–" I glared at Meaganu-kun and Seiya-kun– "would stop making fun of me."

Seiya-kun and Meaganu-kun sweatdropped.

Haru-kun gave me a doubting look, but smiled half-heartedly. "Okay." He grabbed my hand. "Hey, why don't we go on a date of our own? Since Yuki, and Kyo, and Soko-san, and Hikaru-san already went."

"Eh?" Seiya-kun and Meaganu-kun said. "How the hell do you know!"

He shrugged. "I assumed because of the goings-on of this afternoon; Soko-san likes Kyo, Hikaru-san likes Yuki, Kyo likes Soko-san, Yuki likes Hikaru-san; it's obvious." Haru-kun looked at me again. "So what do you say?"

I blinked a couple of times. "Sure!" I turned back to Aya-kun. "Erg...See you later...?"

He smiled. "Of course, Furiko-cha –" Aya-kun was stopped by an evil glare from Haru-kun– "Furiko-kun! I shall be here, talking to Gure-san!"

"Like you always do," Yu-kun and Kyo-kun said together.
