Juuban High - Day 24

Story by: Elise Haskell and Carrie Rose

Well, what can I say? After a morning like Wednesday, the next day is pretty quiet. There were a lot of rumours going around about what exactly had happened. Like this new student Eric was dating the supply teacher Tasuki, and that Trunks was an escapee from the mental institution... not that I confirmed any of those *nervous laughter*.

So, seeing Elise isn't going to be attending school for a while, I, Eric, shall take over the story telling for her.

I met up with Youji, Trunks and Carrie in the morning and everyone was really edgy around each other. Well... actually around Trunks.

"Hi... um... Eric," Youji said sweat dropping.

"Hey Youji! Have you seen my lover around?"

"SAY WHAT!?!" Youji asked.

"Which one?" Carrie asked rather sarcastically.

"Tasuki of course."

"She did say 'lover' didn't she???" Youji asked.

"Yes she did," Trunks said.

"Nobody asked you," Carrie said.

"I'm a 'he' guys," I said a bit distressed. I just didn't get why they couldn't understand that me and Elise were two very different people, who just happen to have the same taste in guys... even though I am a guy.

"Whatever," Trunks said rolling his eyes.

"Fuck off Trunks," I said getting really annoyed.

"Why do you hate me so much?"

"That shouldn't be hard to answer," Carrie muttered.

"Why do you hate me?"

"You are so dense," Youji said. "C'mon, 'slip of the tongue'? What a lame excuse."

"It shouldn't even count as an excuse," I said matter-o-factly. "After all, if I said something like that to Tasuki, I would admit it again."

"You say you love him every time you see him," Trunks said.

"So? It's the truth, and he'll come to love me..."

"Schizo."

"Oh shut up, and by the way Trunks, who is this 'Ah' you said you loved yesterday?"

"Drop it Elise..."

"ERIC! My God, do I have to start wearing a nametag? E.R.I.C.!"

Just then Tasuki walked down the hall.

"MY LOVE! YOU CAME TO SEE ME!"

"AHH!" Tasuki quickly took out his Tessen. "REKKA SHINEN!!!"

The flame missed me and hit Trunks.

"Ha, you reap what you sow." I said laughing at the crispy Trunks. I'm sure Carrie would have comforted him... if not for the fact that she wished death upon him... sorta. I did at least. "After all, you did make her cry."

Trunks lowered his head ashamed. "You're right... I made her cry... what kind of a person am I?"

"A stupid one."

A ki blast suddenly hit me. Ita.

"Tasuki?" I looked around. "Where'd Tasuki go?"

"He ran off five minutes ago," Youji said.

"He'll come back," I started to repeat to myself. There was no way that I was gonna give up on him.

We got to English and people cowered in fear when Trunks walked in... No, I confirmed NONE of those rumours. Carrie took a seat at the opposite side of the class; Youji and me joined her leaving Trunks alone. I would have felt sorry for him, in not the fact that he was a MORON.

Carrie looked very depressed, and I tried my best to cheer her up in silence... it didn't go to well. I kinda looked like an idiot.

Trunks kept looking over at Carrie, what an idiot. All he had to do was admit that he loved Carrie (and Elise) and then everything would be fine. But no, he had to deny it and hit me with a ki blast three times. Yes I am keeping count. Just 'cuz I'm a guy he thinks it's all right to beat the shit out of me. Well I'll sue his ass!

We didn't go to Gym, seeing I'm a guy and we didn't even have to attend school to start with... or at least Elise and them didn't. I'll get Aoi to register me tomorrow.

"Trunks, just say it. Everybody knows that you love her... except maybe you... and you should just tell her. Then she'll forgive you and everything will be fine again," Youji tried to advise Trunks. "Look at her, she's all depressed, just go up to her and say it."

Trunks stepped forward and looked at Carrie, Carrie looked at Trunks... etc.

"Carrie..."

"Trunks..."

"Carrie..."

"Trunks..."

"Hey, that's pretty cool," I said. "Youji."

"Elise?"

"ERIC DAMNIT!"

"Sorry."

Just then we walked by Relena and Heero, and Tamahome and Miaka. Hotohori was also there.

"Relena."

"Heero."

"Tamahome."

"Miaka."

"Miaka," Hotohori said to himself, but he got no answer. Poor guy, if I weren't set on getting hooked up with Tasuki, I would have hugged him or something (besides, Nuriko was perfect for him).

Then Tasuki walked by again, just can't keep away from me I guess.

"TASUKI!"

"AHH!!!" Tasuki yelled and ran away from me.

"Damnit! It just doesn't work for me!"

I looked back over to Trunks and Carrie; they were still doing the name thing. So I slapped Trunks.

"Tell her damnit!"

"I CAN'T!!!" Trunks said. "THERE'S JUST NOTHING TO SAY!"

"Baka na!" I said hitting him again. "You're gonna make her cry. Now do you really want that?"

Trunks looked back at her and started to say something. Then he noticed the very big crowd around him.

"Where the hell did they come from!?!" Trunks yelled.

"We are curious passers byers, no da."

"I don't care! Get lost!"

"Why?" I asked. "You gonna say it?"

"Say what!?!"

"I feel like slapping you right now..."

"Try it," Trunks said powering up.

I slapped him. He hit me with a ki blast.

FOUR!

"What's going on here?" Vegeta said coming into the circle.

"Veggie-Chan!" I said. "Uh... Trunks was just about to tell Carrie he loved her. Now weren't you?"

"NO. I. WAS. NOT!!!" Trunks said and then flew off. He either flies off, or hits me with a ki blast... what a moron.

The crowd soon disappeared as fast as it had gathered leaving Youji, Carrie and I standing in the hallway.

"Are you ok Carrie?" I asked.

"I'm fine," she said brushing the question off. She sounded sad though... how odd.

By the end of lunch Trunks finally stumbled back onto our little party, Carrie quietly got up and walked away.

"God damnit! She hates me! She hates me!"

"What was your first clue?" I asked. Youji lightly hit my shoulder.

Trunks then hit the locker, his first went thought the locker... and the wall... and when he pulled his fist out you could see the empty classroom on the other side. Still pissed off Trunks charged up and sent a ki blast onto the wall destroying it.

"What the hell?" Inu Yasha asked from inside the classroom.

Trunks then took out his sword and started to slash at all the desks, almost hitting Inu Yasha on several occasions.

"GET OUT OF MY CLASS!" Inu Yasha yelled and Trunks stopped slashing at things.

"God damnit!" Trunks then turned to me and hit me... with yet another... ki blast.

FIVE.

I was really getting pissed at him.

As I quietly crumbled into little pieces of ash and soot, Trunks walked away and decided to go home. MORON. Youji swept me up and we soon followed his example and went home.

I had two missions to complete now, get Trunks to admit he loves Carrie, and get Tasuki to admit that he loves me. Sounds easy enough!
