Chapter2:
Sorry 'bout that title mistake! It was killing me, I couldn't believe that happened! Clubs herself in the head I like to UPDATE, UPDATE! LOL!
Thankies for the WONDERFUL reviews people! Thankies TheyMadeMeDoIt!
The bell rang, ending the lunch period. "Well thank you for letting me sit with you." said Lenne. 2-D nodded. "Anytime, darling!" She smiled and turned for her next class.
"Just a minute..." he called out, causing her to spin around. "Can I-...well I-.. umm maybe I..." he had a hard time with his words and he blushed deeply. "Well I was umm ahem wondering if...I could possibly walk you home?"
She smiled and walked closer to him. "Of course. I would be happy if you did."
2-D grinned a smile that made it look as if his face had been spilt in two. "Really! YAY!" shouted the blue haired boy. His shouts echoed in the empty lunchroom.
"I think that we should leave now..." she said as the late bell rang.
"Yea..." he nodded still in excitement.
They both walked out of the lunchroom doors and parted their separate ways to class.
Lenne was in her last period class, art. She took the class with Noodle and her friend, Srimathi. Srimathri was the same age as Lenne, 17. She was also Lenne's best friend and neighbor. For today Srimathi, Noodle and Lenne were partners for their class assignment."Well today's Friday, you wanna' walk home today?" asked Srimathi.
"Ummm I can't, sorry," replied Lenne.
"Ok. Why not?"
"I'm walking home with someone else." Noodle looked up.
"Who?" Noodle asked.
"Stu...I mean umm 2-D."
Noodle smiled. "Really?" Lenne nodded.
"Who's 2-D? Oh you mean that Stu-pot kid!" said Srimathi.
"Yea well he's...he's a friend of mine." replied Lenne.
"OOH! Oh really!" cooed Srimathi.
"It's not like that... at least I don't think it is…"
Noodle sighed, relieved to hear this. 2-D was her best friend and she knew about his crush on Lenne. So she really didn't want to tell him that Lenne didn't take him seriously.
"Wot's that supposed to mean?" Srimathi asked.
"It means... that if he wants something to happen...then it just might happen." smiled Lenne.
"Yea but wot 'bout your mum?" she asked.
Lenne was quiet for a few seconds. Her mom didn't believe in her choosing her own boyfriends. In her opinion, the boyfriends that her daughter brought home didn't seem quite right to her, why should 2-D be any different? That's how Lenne was stuck with Charlie. They met in the park while Lenne, her mom and older sister, Miho, were on a panic.
Her mom liked Charlie instantly. Lenne, on the other hand, didn't. But mom knows best, or so her mum said.
"Don't worry bout my mum, 'cause she won't know..."
"And wot 'bout Charlie?"
Lenne shugged. "I've no idea, love..." she sighed and sank in her chair.
Srimathi sighed with her. "Well you better think of something. Don't string 'im along if your gonna ditch 'im," said Srimathi just as the bell rang. "Anyway, I'm off..."said Srimathi, already standing up near the door.
"Ok bye!" shouted Lenne. She looked at Noodle. "Promise me you won't tell any of this to Stu..."
Noodle nodded. Lenne stuck out her pinky and the both of them looped pinkies.
2-D waited for Lenne outside. He was sitting on a bench near the school when she got outside. She sat next to him, startling him as she did and causing his heart to clench painfully.
"Aaahh you scared me!.."
"Sorry...are you ready?"
He nodded. "Ready when you are."
"Okay." The two got up and walked north of the school to Lenne's house.
2-D noticed the books she was carrying and insisted that he carry them. She did as he insisted and handed her books over. 2-D finally concluded that they made quite the couple and grinned.
"Wot are you grinning 'bout?" she asked.
"Nothing," he grinned mischievously.
She also smiled and held his free hand. He blushed. Finally, finally something was going right in his life. He had fancied Lenne for so long that he was beginning to think that a romance between the two of them would NEVER happen. But the scene between them had proved him to be dead wrong. For once he liked being wrong. If being wrong meant that he could be like this with Lenne, fancying her and have her fancying him back he did not want to be right. Nope, life for now, this exact moment was true ecstasy for him and nothing was going to ruin it.
They were only feet away from her house when Lenne stopped. "Well this is my stop."
"Wha- don't you want me to walk you all the way?"
"That's okay. This is close enough," she said quickly, grabbing her books from him. "Thank you, Stu." she said sweetly, pecking him on the cheek and walking on.
2-D stood there in the same spot. It took him some time to process in his brain what had just taken place. Lenne smiled when she heard shouts of joy as she walked to her door.
But her smile faded as she saw Charlie sitting in her living room.
"We need to talk." He said sternly.
"Wot in the bleedin' hell are you doing here!" she hissed.
"I told your mum 'bout our relationship problem and she told me to come over so we could resolve it."
Lenne sighed. There was the sound of a door opening when Lenne's mom walked in. Her name was Nana. Nana was a plump middle-aged woman and the Japanese side of Lenne. Strangely she was rather attractive for her age, like an older Michelle Yeoh. Her voice was just as docile as Lenne's but with a thick Japanese accent which sometimes made it difficult to understand what she was saying. Luckily for Charlie, like Lenne, he was part Japanese.
"Oh good, Lenne you're here! (1) Musume, what is the problem?"
Lenne and Charlie explained about the rumor, the kissing scene in the gym, and Lenne's new friends.
Nana was silent for a few moments. "Well I think that you should just forget these silly rumors and kiss and make up."
Lenne sighed. She didn't want Charlie; she didn't even like him. She wanted 2-D, but if she told that to her mom all hell would break loose. So she did what all the girls in the movies did...she kept it a secret. "Whatever..." she sighed. Charlie leaned in to kiss her, but just like earlier she moved out of the way until she heard her mom give a slight cough. She let Charlie kiss her but turned so he kissed her cheek. Nana clapped and smiled. "So all's well that ends well, no?" she smiled and stood up from the couch. "Charlie, it's getting late. I'll walk you to the door, hai?" He nodded and stood up. "Bye Lenne..." he said winking at her. She sneered in disgust. As soon as Charlie and Nana left, she phoned Srimathi.
"WOT!" shouted her friend once she told her story.
"I know! It's totally out of order!" Lenne shouted back. She told Srimathi about the resolving meeting.
"You know wot the worst part is…" said Lenne when she was done.
"Wot?"
"I'm meeting 2-D again..." she squeaked.
Silence...
"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!"
"Aaaaaaaaahhhhhh!"
Both girls screamed their lungs out in excitement. "OH! DC,( A nickname Srimathi gave herself) he is sooooooooo cute and nice!..." Squeaked Lenne.
Soon the two just talked about how right everything was going in their lives, but Lenne was totally unaware of what her mom had been plotting next.
MUHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHA! Nana you evil Michelle Yeoh look-a-like! Okay! Let's review, shall we! Oh yea, becausemaybe abit hard to understand Srimathi, her name is shortened to DC. REVIEW! REVIEW!
