Heartless

Chapter 6

"Haruka Tenou, Michiru Kaiou, please report to the main office please. Haruka Tenou and Michiru Kaiou to the main office." Their voices echoed down the halls of the school.

Laughter quickly filled Haruka's classroom. She frowned at the teacher. "Why don't you stop them?" The teacher just smirked at her. Haruka shook her head, grabbed her books and walked down the hall.

"What's going on Haruka?" Michiru looked up at the blond, just out view of the office.

"I don't know. I wouldn't worry about it though." she reached out and opened the door for her.

Dirty looks came from the two secretaries that sat at the reception desks. "The Principal is waiting to see you... Ladies." her voice was cold and harsh.

Haruka quickly covered Michiru's mouth before she could say anything. "Thank you... come on Michi." The blond took her hand as they walked down the corridor to the Principal's office.

"Come in ladies." Mr. Takino looked up at them. "Hello again Haruka. How have you been?" He just grinned.

"What's this about?" Haruka allowed Michiru to sit in the only chair in the office.

Mr. Takino showed a sly grin as he slid a copy of the school's handbook across the desk. "I would just like to inform you and your... friend here, Haruka, that you both broke a school rule by kissing in the hallway."

"When was that rule put into place!"

Michiru reached up to put her hand on Haruka's "The bastard added it this morning." she pointed to the date at the bottom.

"No public displays of affection on school property." Haruka frowned as she read the page aloud.

"That's correct Ms. Tenou." Mr. Takino simply smiled at the pair.

"That what about all the others who are practically fucking in the halls? Why don't they get in trouble?" Michiru quickly retorted.

"Because the teachers haven't seen them, they did see you. As did many disgusted students. I've got no choice but to suspend both of you for one week." Mr. Takino slid two suspension slips to the girls. "I expect both of you to be off school property in 10 minutes. If not then I'll be forced to call the police for trespassing." he grinned.

Michiru stood up, wanting to say more, she frowned when Haruka grabbed her hand and led her from the office. "Why did you do that? That man needs a good beating!"

"It's no use Michiru. I've tried fighting them. My family's tried fighting them. It's no use. It's just a losing battle for our kind. Come on... I'll take you home." Haruka led Michiru to her car and opened the passenger door.

Michiru slid her arms affectionatly around the blonde's neck. "You're not alone this time. I'll always be here Ruka."

This time it was Haruka to take the initiative to kiss Michiru. The kiss was long and tender, one full of love and trust. Michiru slowly pulled away, blushing slightly.

"Maybe during this week we can get to know each other a little more. Would you like to join me for dinner tonight?" The blond smiled down at her counterpart.

"I'd love to Haruka." Michiru returned her smile.

They pulled apart when they heard a student walk by them, making mock-kissing noises. The blond moved around to the driver's side of the car to take Michiru home.
