I Love You

Chapter 9

(A/N: Chapter 9! I think I might update at least one a day. So this will be finished soon!)

On the previous chapter...

"Don't be. It was my fault for having him as a coach anyway. I wish I can figure out a plan or something..."

Fuji's eyes opened and widened.

"That's it!"

Sakura stared at him. "What's it?"

"We make a plan! A plan that let's you be free...Sakuno be safe...and you...be with me..."

Sakura blushed and smiled. "Haha...so...any plans popping in yet?"

Fuji stared at the ceiling. Few minutes later...a sadistic smile appeared on his face.

"I got it."

Flashback End.

"What do you mean 'I got it?'" Sakura asked. "You got an idea?"

"Yes! But we need the help of Kazumi and Eiji too." Fuji smiled.

"Can you tell me?"

"Of course."

Fuji whispered something to Sakura and she smiled very big.

"Well, I need to buy what I need for this plan, so I'll go now."

"Okay. I'll call Kazumi's cell about this. Is that okay?"

"Sure. Bye." Fuji smiled and walked out of the room.

Sakura asked a nurse for a phone and dialed Kazumi's cellphone number.

-------------------------------------

At school...

ring ring ring Kazumi picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Kazumi?"

"Hey! Do you know where Fuji is? He isn't at school."

"Well he was at the hospital...because...I got hit by a car.."

"YOU GOT HIT BY A CAR? ARE YOU OK? Wait...where have I heard that before..."

"Yeah, I'm okay. Don't worry. Well, remember when I said that I had a husband in the US?"

"Oh yeah...are you still going back?"

"Well, Fuji thought of a plan for all of us to be happy...except Kyo of course.."

"What is the plan?"

"Okay, when I tell you, can you later tell Eiji?"

"Sure...what is the plan? Tell me!"

Sakura then told Kazumi the plan, exactly what Fuji had said.

"Wow...okay! I'll tell Eiji right away!"

"Thanks..So I guess...see ya."

"Ok! Eiji and I will visit you after school...also...I need to get to class now..soo bye!"

Kazumi hanged up the phone and remembered that the next class, Japanese History, she sat next to Eiji.

I guess I'll tell him then, Kazumi thought and ran to her next class.

"And then Hideyoshi betrayed Nobunaga..." Kazumi's Japanese History teacher read.

"Pssttt, Eiji..." Kazumi whispered.

"What, Kazumi?" Eiji replied quietly.

"Fuji told Sakura that told me that Fuji has a plan for Sakura not having to go to the US."

"Really? What is it?"

Kazumi took a piece of paper and wrote the exact words Sakura had told her and quietly handed it to Eiji. Eiji was about to get it, but Reiko, a snobby jerk who likes Eiji, stepped on Kazumi's hand.

"OW!" Kazumi cried.

"Oh my, I'm soo sorry, Kazumi. Hmm? What is this note? Is it a LOVE letter?" Reiko laughed.

Then the whole class started laughing.

"No it isn't!" Kazumi pointed out.

"That's what they all say!"

"It's true! It's not a love letter!"

"HAHAH! Let's see it then!"

Reiko took the note, but Eiji stood up and took the note off her grasp.

"What is wrong with you? If you knew how Kazumi is, then you'd believe that it isn't a love note! She's always honest! And I also know...that...she doesn't like me.." Eiji scolded.

"What, Eiji? You like HER?" Reiko shouted.

Kazumi stood up and slapped Reiko on the face.

"You...jerk...that note was important...it was to prevent Sakura going to the US...and here you are thinking it's a love note..." Kazumi mumbled.

"How dare you hit my beautiful face!"

"BRING IT ON!"

Then Reiko pushed Kazumi, but Kazumi took her head and bashed it on her desk. Reiko got back up and tackled her to the ground. Kazumi kicked Reiko to the side.

While Kazumi and Reiko were fighting, Eiji opened the note and read it.

"Hahahah...HAHAHAHH! This plan is so Fuji!" Eiji laughed.

Everyone stopped. Kazumi pushed Reiko away and stood up, walking to Eiji.

"I know..isn't it?" laughed Kazumi.

"Hey...we're not done yet..." Reiko ordered.

"No no no, Reiko. For you and Kazumi disrupting my class, go to the principal's office!" their teacher ordered.

"Fine..." Reiko and Kazumi replied and walked out of the room.

"Now continuing class..."

------------------------------------

At the principal's office...

"DETENTION AFTER SCHOOL FOR TWO WEEKS!" the principal screamed.

------------------------------------

At the hospital...

"...and that's why I can't do my part of the plan...sorry." Kazumi finished.

"Oh, so you're going to be in detention?" Sakura asked.

"Yeah. It sucks! It's not even my fault! It's that bit-"

"Now now, Kazumi. No foul language!" Eiji scolded.

"Haha." Sakura laughed.

"But she did start it! She stomped on my hhaannnnddd!"

"Calm down, Kazumi. Don't cause any more hate in love."

"Hmph. You suck, Eiji."

"That's cruel." Eiji sobbed.

"This might be a little too late to ask this, but what did you guys do at the dance? The last time I asked Kazumi, she was like so embarrassed so I want to know." Sakura asked.

Eiji and Kazumi blushed madly.

"Well do you really want to know?" Eiji asked.

"Fine...I'll tell Sakura..I don't care anymore." Kazumi answered and stared at Sakura.

Flashback Begins

"Hey! I like this song!" Kazumi smiled at Eiji.

"Oh, Kaze no Tabibito? I like that song too!"

Eiji then stood up and bowed in front of Kazumi and asked,"May I have this dance?"

Kazumi smiled very brightly and took his hand. She stood up and walked to the dance floor holding on to Eiji's hand. Then she let go of his hand and started shaking her hips. Eiji sighed and danced to the rhythm.

When the song ended, the next song was called Shizukana Yoru ni by Tanaka Rie. (A/N: Shizukana Yoru ni is in the anime Gundam Seed by the way.) The song was quiet and slow, so Kazumi put her left hand on his shoulder. Eiji placed his left hand on her hips. Then Kazumi placed her head on Eiji's shoulder and closed her eyes. Eiji blushed.

"Hey, Kazumi?" Eiji slowly asked.

"Yeah?"

"I have something to tell you."

"What?"

"I...I like you."

Kazumi blushed madly and slowly moved away from him.

"Sorry, Eiji."

"Huh?"

"I like you more than a friend, but less than a couple...Sorry."

"..."

"Just forget what I said. Let's go back to Sakura's house since this is the final song." Eiji answered silently.

"Okay..."

Flashback end

"...so in other words, Eiji, you got rejected?" Sakura asked.

"...yeah" Eiji sighed.

"You shouldn't have said that, Sakura..." Kazumi said.

"And we already kis-" Eiji began.

Sakura gasped. "You already did? Wow!"

After a long moment of silence, someone knocked on the door. It was Fuji holding the equipment.

"Okay. Let's use our remaining days to set these up." Fuji smiled sadistically. "He won't know what we have in store for him.."

(A/N: Yay! A lot of EijiXOC love! For the people who wanted to know what happened at the party, that's what happened. You MIGHT know what the plan is in the next chapter! Thanks to the people who review this fanfic. Thank you all!)
