Chapter Five
Raye jumped about a mile high, causing a bout of laughter to ripple through the company around her. She turned her head and caught sight of two girls, one with a deep frown and the other didn't seem to be paying attention to her at all, looking over the company that Raye had been keeping with a hint of envy. "Can we talk to you, Raye?"
Raye shot an apologetic glance to the boys at the table before removing herself and following the bolder of the two to the back, near the restrooms. The other girl lingered behind , only following the other two girl's lead when the first yelled for her. "Exactly what are you doing here! I thought you were coming over tonight to hang out with me and Kei." The girl with onyx black hair scolded her, flipping her hair over her shoulder in a dramatic motion. It was Sumi, Raye's best friend.
Raye blinked a few times, looking bewildered. "What are you guys doing here! Don't you think it's going to be a little hard to explain two girls randomly following me to a sushi shop?" He voice was low and hurried.
"Not really, you're cute as a boy." Said a voice from behind her. Raye whirled around with an exasperated look on her face, though it was mostly hidden by the hat. It was Kei, her bright blonde hair was braided into two different strands and hung over her shoulders. "I can't believe you're ditching us for this."
"I'm so not ditching you guys! Can't we talk about this later? I promise I'm still coming, no worries." Raye grabbed the girls by their shoulders and turned them around, steering them out of the restaurant, but not before Kei could wave goodbye and send a flirtatious smile to the boys of the Seishun tennis team. Hopeless, thought Raye as she did this. When he returned, the guys all stopped and looked up at her.
"What was that about?" Asked Fuji.
"What a playboy", commented Momoshiro, causing Raye's cheeks to turn a bright red.
"Aww, Stop it you guys, you're embarrassing the kid!" Called out Eiji, just now returning from the bathroom.
And so the meal continued, the Seishun tennis team making their usual disturbance; plus one.
(( Oh my gosh, you guys! I totally forgot about this site, and so I thought…hmn. I better work on this thing that I haven't touched for almost a year. ))
