Chap. 15 :The New Kid

Days passed and school was as boring as ever. But, Kai and Carol were getting along very well. They were as close as buddies. You can also say that it was a start of a nice relationship. Whenever there was Carol around, Kai would mostly be smiling.

" S'up with Kai ?" asked Tyson one day. " He's SMILING ! He NEVER smiles."

" Hmmm. Good point. But the strange thing is this, whenever Carol was around, he always smiles. If I'm not mistaken, remember that day when Carol was out, he didn't even smile. Instead, he was sulking." Said Ray, puzzled by Kai's reaction. It was very, very, VERY rare for the almighty Kai Hiwatari to be smiling.

" Oh, who cares. As long as he's happy, we're unlikely to get snapped by him." Said Max happily.

One peculiar day, a new student was introduced to the class. Poor Mr. Keno had to shout himself hoarse before the class could quiet down. As usual, some students were listening to headphones, some were chatting away loudly, and some were gazing into space and so on.

" KEEP IT DOWN !" shouted Mr. Keno, " Good, now, we have a new student joining us. She's from another class but the class was full so, she was transferred here. Come in please." Said Mr. Keno politely.

A girl with long blond hair up to her shoulders walked in. On the moment the girl entered, all the boys' jaws dropped except for Kai. ( Of course ! )

" Hi ! My name is Lucy. Lucy Greene." She said sweetly but fakely. Carol snorted softly. Lucy was wearing a pink sleeveless shirt with disgusting and revolting words like, Hey babe. ( Eww. Sends the shivers down my spine which spellsP.U. ) She was also wearing a mini-skirt up to her thighs ( I think its short enough. I'm not a fan of skirts. ).

' Some Britney-Spears-wanna-be vain sluts again I suppose.' Thought Carol, turning her head away, just to see Kai looking out at the window, lost in his thoughts.

' He seems cute with the sunlight pouring down on hi face- Urgh ! What am I THINKING ! Snap out of it.' Thought Carol as she turned her head to the new comer again.

" So, let's see where you can sit." Said the teacher, looking a place for her, " Ahh ! Mr. Hiwatari has an empty space beside him. Mr. Hiwatari, please raise your hand." Said the teacher but Kai took no notice of him, still gazing out of the window, thinking about other stuff.

" Never mind, Mr. Keno. As long there's a place for me to sit." Said Lucy, trying to look innocent as she sat beside Kai.

" She's gonna have a tough year sitting beside Kai." Whispered Carol to Hilary. Hilary nodded in agreement.

" Mr. Hiwatari, you will give a tour to Ms. Greene after school." Announced Mr. Keno.

" What !" said Kai, standing up.

Mr. Keno looked sternly at Kai but Kai was not going to give up without reasoning things out.

" I will not waste my time on some stupid tours." Said Kai.

" You will take Ms. Greene around the school for a tour. Now, let's begin." Said Mr. Keno firmly.

" Great. Just great." Muttered Kai darkly, cursing dark words to the teacher.

( On Carol's side … )

Inside Carol, she could feel anger boiling inside. She felt suddenly jealous of Lucy sitting with Kai.

' Why am I feeling like this ? It's his business anyway.' Thought Carol.

Finally, it was time for free lesson.

" Yes ! Finally ! Beyblading time !" exclaimed Carol happily as she kept her books into her bag and walked towards Kai.

" Aren't you coming ?" she asked.

" Can't . Ms. Pathetic, remember ? I'm stuck with her for the next few hours. Bad luck." Said Kai darkly.

" Oh." Said Carol, a bit down. She was hoping that Kai would come with her to the class since they were at the same class. " Good luck to you mate !" she said, running off to the class, skipping lunch again.

' No big deal.' Thought Carol simply.

Right so, how's this chap. Short, I know. Hwat do you thimk about it ? Oh yeah ! Can I ask you guys something ? Whatis Au Shiteru? Heard my sis reading it from a fanfic. ( Yeah. I'm stupid. I know. )
