Ryou and Ichigo loverr
To flamer and all future flamers: Yah? Well I have tacos and am not afraid to use them! PREPARE FOR SOME DOOM STUPID MORTAL! ((clears throat and speaks to reviewers)) sorry, got a little Invader Zim crazy there. On with the chapter!
Wow…..I mean…I enjoyed that….it was…really…"
"Enjoyed what?" the person on the bed next to her said. She turned around and came face to face with Masaya Aoyama.
"Oh! Nothing!"
"Don't tell me you actually like Ryou? I mean come on; he's such a….a….stiff."
"That sure wasn't stiffness I was getting back there," Ichigo thought.
"And didn't he force you to be in the band?"
"Well yeah, but once you get to know him, he's really nice. I mean, sometimes he's a jerk, and he is the biggest flirt known to mankind. But…he's really sweet….and can be really nice when he wants to."
"Are you listening Meo?"
"Huh? Oh sorry, just deep in thought."
She heard the door open again as Ryou entered the room. "Meo? We're all going to take turns practicing."
"Oh, right!" Ichigo said, bounding up from next to Masaya.
"And we still have to work on that duet, don't we, Meo?" Masaya commented.
"Yeah. How about another time, ok? Like….when we have more time to think about it."
"That sounds fine with me. We better get to practice then."
Masaya sped ahead and left Ichigo in the room. Ryou silently walked out and felt someone grab his arm.
"Why…why do you want me to stay away from Aoyama?"
Ryou sighed, knowing this question would come up. "Ok, I'll tell. But all further discussion takes place later."
"I understand."
"Masaya….he used to be in a gang. And even if his social status has changed, his personality hasn't. He only acts like this charming person you see, and if you knew, you'd think the opposite of what you think now."
"Yeah right. You're lying."
"I am not."
"Look you, Masaya is a very sweet person who is not some ex-gang member. I don't know how you came up with that crazy idea, but I am not going to listen to it."
He was silent for a little bit. "Fine. Do what you want. In fact…..if you want to quit…..then don't come to practice."
"Wait! I didn't say I was quitting! Wait up, Ryou!"

"Alright! We're going first! Ready, girls?"
"Ready!" Lettuce responded to Mint.
Mint: Clouds in the sky
Flying high, flying high
I can't stop going up
Lettuce: Next to you, my lover
Share a kiss, share a kiss
I don't think it could get much better
Zakuro: I can't believe it
We're up so high
I won't come down unless you're by my side
All: Love, Love, Love!
I'll love your forever
Stay close to your side
Love, Love, Love!
Don't want to ever leave you
Don't want to ever say good-bye
The tape immediately stopped. "Kish! We weren't finished yet!"
"How do you think I stopped the damn CD player! I am all the way over here!"
"With the remote control, stupid!"
"But….I left the remote in the storage closet," Lettuce said.
"Hmmmm…..PUDDING!" Mint yelled.
"Awwww….." came a voice from the closet. Tart went to open it and Pudding, along with Zakuro's many shoes and Mint's countless coats fell on top of him. Pudding looked down. "HI TAR-TAR!" she shouted happily.
"You know Pudding, you could've just asked to come with instead of hiding in the closet. We would've said yes," Zakuro commented.
At that comment, she glared at Zakuro. She had seen the purple haired pop star going into the other closet with Tart in their game of Spin-the-Bottle. She pulled Tart out of the pile of shoes and held onto him closely. "MY TAR-TAR!" she said, and began hissing.
"PUDDING! LET GO!"
Zakuro didn't see this as a threat. She just shrugged. "Do whatever you want. I don't really care what a pair of teeny-boppers do."
"Hey! We're 13 you know!" Tart objected. "We are not teeny-boppers!"
"Ok then Tart, since you're the one who suggested all of this, you two can get all lovey-dovey in the bedroom Ichigo had been in. Come on, prove to us you two are not teeny-boppers," Kish and Mint seemed to usher them at the same time.
"Now wait a minute…."
"Fine! We will!"
"We will!"
"Come on, Tar-Tar," Pudding said, grabbing him by the arm and forcing him to come with her. Once the two were in the room together, the door shut tightly behind them, Pudding's face changed from determination to sadness.
"Hey, what was that for? I know you like me and all, but that got way out of control! It was totally…."
"Does Tar-Tar not like me?" Pudding interrupted, on the verge of tears. Tart eyed her carefully and realized for once in her life she was serious.
"Hey, wait! Don't cry…" he said. He gave her a tiny kiss on the cheek. And then….these urges came about. Feelings he had never felt before. And before he could control himself, he was embracing her. Holding her as tight as he could, never wanting to left go.
"Silly girl, I don't like you."
Tears rolled down her cheeks, her first love in her whole life, and it was rejected. But then she felt Tart pull her closer.
"I don't like you…..I love you."
She managed to wriggle free from Tart's grasp. She looked into his eyes, holding onto his hands. She then lowered her head to his level and closer her eyes before kissing him. He kissed her back and added as much passion as he could into it. He had wanted to do this for a long time.
When they broke apart, gasping for air, they embraced again. "I love you too, Tart."
"Hey…you used my real name. Instead of that goofy nickname."
They both laughed together, still holding each other. When they finally detached themselves from each other, Tart stood up. "Come on. I think the others are waiting." Pudding nodded as she stood by his side. But before leaving the room, she reached for his hand, and they went walking into the main room together.
Chapter 5. That's the last of the pre-written chapters. Next chapter will probably come straight from the mind. Sorry if some of you got confused by the re-write. Anyway, read and review, over and out. -Nibzo
