Chapter 3:
More Problems!
After a gruesome day of complete humiliation and embarrassing facts, Zidane and Blank was never grateful to hit the sack to their dorm room, which is D-113. They open the beautifully carved door and went in, then close, then locked it.
"What a tiring day," Blank exclaims as he opens their private refrigerator and opens a can of PEPSI. He gets another and tosses it to Zidane, who seem to have successfully caught it. "And it's only our first day here!"
Zidane nods back, as he takes off his wig, tossing it to the soft carpet floor, revealing his straight and shoulder-length golden brown hair. "You said it." Then he looks down to his fake bust. "This frigging bust is annoying me! Can I take it off, Blank?"
Blank shrugs as he takes one long sip of his PEPSI. "Go ahead and be my guest," he smirks, then, in the instant, he suddenly had the urge to get off the 'extra big', as Baku calls it, bust. "Yeah, and I'll get this off, too… weren't going outside, right?"
The blonde teenage boy tosses his bust to the corner of the room and nods, "Right."
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Zitany! Bianca!" Garnet's sweet voice is to be heard over the door, with two familiar girls behind her. "Can we go inside?"
Zidane and Blank jumps, and then exchanges glances with a big gulp. Blank then starts to get his 'extra big' bust from somewhere he threw it and starts to put it in his chest carelessly. Zidane takes his wig and bust at the same time and starts to put it in its respected places.
KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!
"Coming!" Zidane calls, in a high-pitched voice. "Damn it… just when all things turned upside down, it has to be worse!" he turns to Blank who seems to be not yet finish adjusting his 'extra big' breasts. "Blank, you ready?"
Blank glances to him over the shoulder and nods. "Go ahead, don't worry 'bout me!" he whispers, seemingly a little annoyed.
"Fine!" Zidane whispers back, rolling his eyes. He turns the door only to see Garnet, who is smiling sweetly, Eiko, smirking, and Ruby, with a weak smile. "Hi, guys! Um… you want to come in?"
Eiko giggles and says like it was the obvious thing, "Duh, isn't it obvious? What's the use for waiting here in your doorstep?"
Zidane resisted the urge to choke his cousin, but refrained himself. He opens the door wider for them to come in, and as he closes the door, be mumbles something under his breath. He turns around to see the three girls seated in the two beds, chatting, with Blank on the corner, smiling nervously.
"Um… it's nice to have you around!" chirps Blank with a nervous smile as his back was against the wall. "What brings you here?"
"Oh nothing," Ruby replies, flipping her wavy sky-blue hair. "Just here to discuss with you some 'girltalk'."
Zidane and Blank exchanges glances, then swallows hard at the same time, then turn to them again and mumble again in unison, "Girl… talk?"
"Yeah, girltalk," Garnet responds, looking to both of them. "You know, where we discuss some things that involves girls and you know… usual girl stuff."
Blank nods slowly but stiffly. "Ohh… you mean that girltalk…" he turns to Zidane and gives out a weary look. "I see. Well, before we have some of this 'girltalk'," he turns to the refrigerator and opens it, "… Do you want some PEPSI?"
"No, thanks," Ruby says with a smile.
"No, but thank you. I'm on a diet," giggles Garnet.
"Well, seeing my two best friends worrying about their weight let me have some!" Eiko smiles, as she gets the PEPSI from Blank. She opens it and takes a long sip, then winks at Blank. "Thanks!"
Blank shrugs, "No problem." Then he turns to Zidane and nudges him by the ribs. "Zidane! Go and entertain them!" Zidane turns to him with shocked look,
"Me?" he gasps. "Why me? Why don't you?"
Blank rolls his eyes and replies matter-of-factly, "Because I have no idea what this 'girltalk' means! Do you think I know what it is?"
"And so you think I have an idea what it is, too?" Zidane gasps again, not believe this. "Look, Blank, I don't know what those… ugh… 2 girls, plus one witch (A/n: He's referring to Eiko) are talking about! What makes you think that I know it?
Blank thinks for a while then gets impatient, "I… I… I DON'T KNOW!" he explodes, whispering to his partner. "You go and think of something! Just pretend! You know! ARGH! Just go, besides, didn't you said you're the smart one between of us!"
Zidane froze in place then argues, "Well, that is OUT of this school! When we're inside, you are the smart one!" Blank slaps his head, careful not to get the cheerful visitor's attention.
"Zidane, you moron, stop changing subjects and just go with the flow!" Blank says angrily, glaring at his partner dangerously. "GO!" He exclaims, pushing Zidane from his back.
"Okay, okay, no need to be so grumpy," Zidane gives in, as he rolls his eyes. He walks towards the chattering girls and says aloud. "Hi, can I chat with you?"
"Of course!" Garnet smiles at him, "That's what we're here for! So, what's up with you?"
"What's… up with me?" Zidane perkily asks, giving a smile. He thinks for a while then points his index finger to the ceiling. "Um… the roof?"
Ruby, Garnet and Eiko looks at him blankly, then to each other, and then to him then they burst into fits of laughter and giggles. "Oh, Zitany," Garnet smiles. "That's not what I meant!"
Zidane fakes a laugh and scratches the back of his head and says, "Oh, yes! I know that! I was just… uh… kidding!" he laughs again, perkily. The trio laughs with him, and well, Blank's still busy adjusting his 'extra big' bust.
"Hey, hey, guys, you know what?" Ruby asks the group of girls as Blank soon joined them. "There's no school tomorrow, and the faculty is allowing us to go to the city!"
"Really?" Eiko exclaims, smiling happily. "That's great!" she turns to her two best friends and to her two new friends. "And you know what this means?"
Blank and Zidane exchanges glances then swallows hard, knowing the scary answer. Then, they ask quietly, "What…?"
"SHOPPING!" The three girls giggles loudly, that Zidane and Blank has to cover their ears. The three girls continue on giggling and what to buy.
"Um, excuse us for a minute," Blank sheepishly says, dragging Zidane to one corner of the four walled room. As it was clear, Blank whispers to Zidane with desperation in his voice, "Zidane! We're in trouble!"
Zidane arches an eyebrow, "Why so?"
"Because…" Blank pauses a little, then he explodes, "… We're going shopping! I hate shopping! What if those girls shop clothes for us but they won't fit because we're larger than that! Besides, like Baku said, we have to do our duty!"
Zidane smirks and pushes Blank away from him. "Oh, Blank, chill." He assures, smiling goofily. "Let the almighty Zidane handle this."
Blank stares at him blankly then says reluctantly, "Okay… but Zidane, if you screw up, you'll be DEAD!" Zidane smirks at him, truly confident of himself. Then, the two of them walk back to the trio of girls.
"Um… girls?" Zidane asks, making the girls' heads turns to her. "Um… you know you said that we'll go shopping tomorrow, right?" the girls nods. "Um… me and Bianca can't come."
"Why?" Eiko asks, arching an eyebrow.
"We have to investigate the random mur –" but before anything can be said, Blank covers his mouth with his hand and laughs nervously. "Ppppffftttt!"
"Um… what our moron friend is saying is that we can't come cause… cause…" Blank pauses while the girls' wait for his reply. "Cause… we have to check the weather!" he fakes a laugh.
"Check…?" Garnet starts, looking at Blank with a skeptical look.
"The weather…?" Ruby asks, a questioning look on her face.
"C'mon, you guys," Eiko, snorts. "You have to make a better excuse than that! Check the weather? Are you kidding us? The weatherman already has that job!"
Zidane struggles to get free, and as Blank releases him, he exclaims, "What Bianca is saying that we have to check our busts so that it won't deflate—" Blank pulls Zidane to one corner again and refrained himself from slapping his agent partner.
"Zidane… Tribal," Blank grits, glaring at him. "Are you trying to get us in trouble!"
Zidane rolls his eyes and argues back, "Why are you making a big deal about it? I only said some good excuse so that we can get away without the wrath of girl shopping!" Blank slaps his forehead.
"Zidane, can you please just think before you act?" Blank asks through gritted teeth. "You almost got us in trouble by then!"
Zidane smirks, "But it was a good excuse than checking the weather, Blankie." He snickers quietly as he notice the redness of Blank's face.
"Yeah? Well, can't you even think that this good excuse of yours can make us suspicious, monkey boy?" Blank retorts back, again, refraining from punching the lights out of this irritating partner of his. Then, he mimics, "'Oh, what Blank is saying that we have to check our busts so that it won't deflate!' Zidane, girl busts DON'T deflate! Now, they are already thinking we're one hell weird!"
Zidane looks down, "Oh yeah…"
Blank rolls his eyes and pulls Zidane's hand and then walks towards the girls that has worried looks on their faces, "Whatever, Zidane… I'll take care of it."
"Bianca, Zitany, is everything alright?" Dagger asks, concern in her voice.
"Yes," Blank smiles, giving her a smile. "Um… what Zitany was saying earlier was just a joke, a thing to lighten our hearts." Lighten our hearts, yeah right. As if it was. "She was only trying to make you laugh, so please excuse her misbehavior." If Zidane said any further, we'll get fired! "And so, the real reason why we can't come because we have work to do tomorrow."
"Like what, Bianca?" Ruby asks.
Blank pauses. "Like… um… assignments, yeah, the homework!" The three girls look at each other.
"Um… homework?" Eiko smirks, "Sorry, pal, the teachers didn't give us homework today."
Garnet looks at the two newbies and saw the nervousness in their eyes, as she tells Eiko, "Come on, Eiko, if they don't want to, don't force them." Eiko gives her a skeptical look. "Yeah, on their first day, you're giving a bad impression on yourself."
Eiko sighs and gives up, "Fine, fine," then she turns to the others, "Sorry for forcing you." Then she gives a bright smile then turns to her best friends, "Hey, guys, want to have a cup of cappuccino? My treat!"
"Sure!" Ruby and Garnet replies, then stands up. "Bye!" they said to Zidane and Blank, and then they left.
Zidane and Blank looks at each other then gives a sigh of relief. "Finally!" Blank exclaims, "I thought they would never leave!"
"I thought this would be an easy mission," Zidane claims as he locks the door and throws away the wig. "I can't believe I'm so wrong!"
"Trust me, Zidane," Blank sighs as he puts away his 'extra big' bust. "Never trust anything that Baku says." Then he smiles brightly for the first time; "At least we're free to do the investigation tomorrow with no interruptions!"
"Amen to that!" they both laugh.
To be continued…Yahoo! They will now get their very first investigation! Tune in for the next chapter!
