Complete Opposites

Chapter Nine: It's a Girl Thing

There was a very very long moment of silence upstairs then a "WHAT? WHAT KIND OF CRUEL JOKE IS THIS?"

Emiko attempted to calm the girl who was flattened against the wall, shaking in shock down. Golden eyes wide, no way…it was not happening to her, no way, no way, no way in hell! "This isn't a joke Krad, you're a girl now, and girls will always be girls."

"I'm not a girl! I wasn't a girl! And I won't be a girl! I'm not a girl!"

"Yes you are! You're one right now and you can't deny it!"

Oh gods, oh gods, oh gods! She was going to die wasn't she? "I'm a guy!"

"Not at the moment! Stop being so immature about this and let me explain what you do when this...sort of thing happens to you! On the bright side...it's only once a month. Now here's what you do...some things you cannot do and things you should not and cannoteat..."

The blonde quickly thought the situation over, to scream or not to scream...maybe she'd end up dying from blood loss…but then again…that'd just be embarrassing especially with her little...situation right now. She focused her attention back on the mother very nervously. She really didn't expect to have to put up with such...girl problems, the human world simply sucked.

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

Meanwhile, downstairs, everyone was looking at the ceiling above them as they heard the scream, "I wonder what's going on up there…"

Towa merely shrugged and continued calmly clearing off the table, "It's a girl thing."

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

A very long while later Krad came back down looking very uncomfortable and very embarrassed, not to mention she felt extremely self-conscious at the moment. Emiko just smiled and patted her back, "There ya go! I'm so proud of you!"

The blonde's face just turned redder. Dark smiled, "What happened?"

"Nothing!" Krad snapped.

"Whoa! No need to PMS now!" The thief said as he raised his hands up surrendering. The blonde's face grew even redder, she gave a scream before storming out the door, moments later Satoshi blinked and followed the blonde outside after giving his thanks. Dark just blinked cluelessly like the clueless thief he was at the moment, "…opps?"

Emiko frowned and tsk'ed the thief, "Dark! You should've known better than that! Picking on the poor girl!"

"What? What did I do this time? I don't even know what the bloody hell-"

"Language!"

"I don't even know what it means!"

Emiko turned her back and headed upstairs, "Go look it up in a dictionary."

"Well I know what it means I just don't know what it stands for, I'm not very linguistic here incase you haven't noticed!" Everyone just continued watching him, irritated, he threw his hands up and stormed off. "Fine! Be that way! Everything's my fault isn't it? I'll be in my room hugging a dictionary."

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

The next morning, Dark had completely forgotten about how he stormed off last night and could only think about the date he was going to be on and the outfit that Krad was going to be wearing. But then the nagging feeling came up, he shrugged it off, "I'll just apologize if she looks pissed."

Then all happy and giddy and not knowing that they meantpretty muchthe same thing, he dragged the redhead out the door to the blue haired boy's house. "Dark! It's eight in the morning! They're probably still sleeping!"

"Oh well! We'll wake them up and have breakfast! I haven't eaten either!" So, he proceeded to drag the poor boy down the street, still as giddy as ever. He didn't even bother knocking on the door, he simply opened it and stepped inside. "That's the good thing about people who feel too secure for their own good." Dark hopped up the stairs with a grin on his face, "I'm getting Krad-chan, you can deal with the creep."

Daisuke rolled his eyes and headed up the stairs to where the blue haired boy laid sleeping, sleeping, and sleeping. "Hiwatari-kun? Are you awake?" Was there a stupider question to ask? Other than, why's the sky blue even though that's actually a question that could end up to be a scientific question so it wasn't stupid. Unlike asking a sleeping boy whether he was awake or not which could never end up to be a scientific question nor a smart question unless he had his eyes opened and wasn't responding...but that's not the case so too bad.

----------

Meanwhile, Dark was still jumping around, "Krad! Krad! Wake up! Wake up!"

The blonde stirred, "Shut up…shut…up…"

He crossed his arms, "Mou…wake up! Today's Saturday! You've had plenty of beauty sleep already! So wake up!"

"Stop it…"

"Didn't you get any sleep last night?"

"If I say no will you go away?"

"…no…"

Dark looked around and spotted a book, "You were reading? You spent your whole night reading instead of sleeping!.?"

"Nnnn…"

"I mean who reads nowadays?" Krad rolled over and covered her ears with her pillow, her screams were muffled, finally, when Dark wouldn't shut up. She threw her pillow at him and got up. "Huh? Where are you going now?"

"I'm going to take a shower."

"Oh…oh…can I-"

"Wait downstairs!"

Shoving his hands in his pockets he grumbled, "Fine, be that way…"

-----------

"Hiwatari-kun…wake up!" Daisuke smiled nervously as the boy automatically sat up and stared off into space. He blinked, "Hiwatari-kun?"

No respond.

"Hiwatari-kun…" He waved a hand in his face.

No sign of life.

"Mou…wake up…Hiwatari-kun…"

No movement.

"Oh my god…are you even breathing?"

No answer.

Daisuke bit his lip, "Hiwatari-kun…we're supposed to be on a date to-" He was interrupted by a groan, the redhead flushed realizing that the boy might've listened to what he was about to say, talk about perfect timing... "…Hiwatari-kun?"

Suddenly, Satoshi's head snapped to face the redhead, Daisuke backed up out of surprise, then the blue haired boy blinked, "Nnn…Niwa?"

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

That was about the same time Krad stepped out of the showers, she stretched and went to sit down only to find Dark on her bed, she blinked, "Aren't you supposed to be downstairs?"

"And miss you in that outfit?"

The blonde frowned at the outfit she was wearing, a white blouse with three quarter length long sleeves along with a black skirt. "When everything gets back to normal I will deny ever wearing such…articles of clothing." She looked down and wrinkled her nose.

"Don't be like that now, you look awesome, now to do with your hair…hmm…" The thief paused for a moment to let his artistic side sink in, then he looked up with a huge grin on his face, "I have it!"

And all Krad could do was pray, please don't let him do anything weird to my hair please don't let him do anything or else I can't be responsible for his safety, you hear that!? I'll kill him!

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

After awhile, the younger two headed down with Satoshi finally away and the elder two too headed down with Krad's hair finally done. Dark grinned as he followed the blonde down, admiring his skills. Long golden hair was tied half up and half down into a bun but since her hair was a bit too long, the thief ended up fanning out quite a bit, almost…peacock-ish...with chopsticky things sticking out.Oh well, it looked good and peacocks were for fancy people therefore Krad looked good and fancy (with chopsticky things sticking out of her hair).

"You guys ready?"

The two nodded while staring at Krad, the blonde frowned, "He screwed it up didn't he?"

Daisuke shook his head, "No, it's quite…artistic actually…"

Satoshi pushed up his non-existent glasses only to notice that they weren't there, in fact, he didn't wear anything on or over his eyes, not that anyone could tell, or cared. As far as Dark was concerned, he had the contacts that he didn't need on. "You look like some private school girl…with strange hair that have chopsticky things sticking out..."

Krad blinked, "What?"

Dark just smirked, "You look hot, that's all, now let's go!"

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

So they headed outside, Dark's arm around Krad's shoulder and the younger two following, "Well now…today's the perfect day to-"

"Stay home?"

"Go to the beach?"

"Go eat?"

"…actually I was going to say go to the movies, but we can do those stuff too, let's see…we'll eat, then go to the beach, then do whatever until the movies, then we can go and stay home! Or however you want to put it."

Daisuke blinked, "That sounds fun and all, but what about tomorrow?"

"I think Emiko wants to give Krad girl lessons on being a girl or something."

Golden eyes widened, "W-what?"

Dark just smiled and pulled her away, "Come on! Time's a wasting and I hunger!"

----------

They settled for a sidewalk café with little fancily shaped butter and jam. Satoshi stared at the bunny-shaped butter, "What's the point in shaping them when they're just going to be smeared all over your breakfast anyways?"

Dark shrugged as he dug into his full breakfast meal which consisted of eggs, bacon, toast and juice. Krad on the other hand settled for French toast and milk, Satoshi wasn't hungry and had a cup of coffee while Daisuke had pancakes. "Their maple syrup's really good…"

"What about the pancakes?"

"They're good too." Dark took a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, "Urh urite it thith godph."

"Dark! Don't steal my pancakes and don't talk with your mouth full!"

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

After breakfast was the beach, which none of them had prepared for so they just sat around and decided to go look around when they ran into… "Dark-san!"

Krad sighed, she should've known, it was quite, too quite… "Risa-chan! Why are you here?"

"I'm…" She looked at Krad, "Are you on a date!?"

"A double date actually…"

"Oh really! I'm on a date too! Say…can we join you? We can make it a triple date!" She beamed as she dragged Takeshi over beside her, "You know my date don't you?"

Dark and everyone else knew that it was plain rude to say no in someone's face so he shrugged, "Sure, a triple date sounds…interesting…" He looked over at her date who was eyeing his date and glared. While Risa cheered and went to do her mental victory dance, he made a couple gestures that weren't too hard to decipher, it simply meant you do anything, anything at all and I'll kill you! Takeshi nodded and backed up behind his date.

Risa beamed, "So what are you guys doing?"

"Actually we're just walking around until it's movie time."

"Oh! There's this dress I've been dying to buy, do you think we can drop by the shop so I can pick it up?"

The four looked at each other, "…sure."

The thief grinned and nudged the blonde, "See? Most girls would die to get new clothes and stuff."

"I'm not exactly like most girls now am I? Don't I have enough clothes already?"

"You're the first girl I've known to say that!"

"Really now…you don't say…"

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

So, off Risa hopped, literally, to the store which was filled with expensive things that were probably sold for cheaper elsewhere. But, they went into that store and not elsewhere, quite stupid of them.

Anyways, Risa grabbed the dress that was her size and pranced off merrily to the nearest changing room, stall thingywhile everyone else stood around and waited. That is…until Dark spotted something that caught his attention, and he too hopped off, but he came back, with clothes in his hands, and he handed them to Krad who looked at him frowning. He just grinned and pushed her off into a change room and looked for more clothes for her to try on.

-------

Awhile later, Risa came back out in a pink and red and black dress and twirled around. "How do I look?"

Takeshi scratched his head, "Why is it that girls always want other people's opinions yet at the same time don't really listen to them?"

"It's a girl thing, so…how do I look?"

Dark nodded, an outfit in his arms, "Not bad."

She beamed at the comment until her rival came out from the stall with a scream, "You expect me to wear this? You're out of your mind!"

"Come on out! I want to see it!"

Krad opened the door and stepped out, all eyes went on her, white somewhat tight skirt, along with a white jacket which went midriff along with a black tube top, not to mention the knee-high boots she had on, "You promised you wouldn't make me wear any of this kind of clothes!"

"But you look sexy! Do you hate it that much?"

The blonde crossed her arms, "What do you think?"

"Fine, put these on. You'll like them more, I swear."

Reluctantly, she took the clothes and slammed the door shut, another while later, "Okay, so I like them a bit more than the other ones but still…at least these are pants…"

"I told you so!" Krad stepped out in a pair of white jeans and black tank top. "You look great, I don't see why you complain about having to try on clothes."

"Whatever, can we go?"

"Do you want that outfit?"

"Can I say no?"

"I'll just take it as a no, come on then, let's go, it's lunch time." Risa glared at the blonde, her fist actually balled up. "Risa-chan, are you going to buy that?" She nodded stiffly and trudged over to the cashier, "So Krad-chan, any preference for lunch?"

"I don't know…I don't even know this place that well, not well enough to have a preference."

"Point taken, Dai-chan, anything you want to eat?"

The redhead nodded, "Actually there was this one place…"

They ended up going to a sushi bar, Krad quietly ate her order of sushi while Dark slurped up his udon hungrily. And so, after lunch, there was still a couple hours left until the movies and while walking down the street, everyone had a different though in mind...

Daisuke, I wonder what movie we're watching…Hiwatari-kun looks deep in thought…

Satoshi, I'm bored, why's Harada here? Doesn't she ever give up? Niwa looks deep in thought…

Dark, Krad looks really cute in that outfit…she's so much better as a girl, actually he…she was pretty hot as a guy to but it's funner when he…she…he…whatever isn't trying to kill me.

Krad, why me? Why me? Somebody just shoot me! I'm sick of being human! And a girl! A human girl! I hate dresses! I hate being stuck here with stupid humans who get jealous over nothing! I hate doing human activities like shopping and…and eating! Just kill me already!

Risa, there's got to be some way to get Dark-san's attention! That girl just isn't right for him! That should be me in his arms! Not some non-appreciative girl who doesn't eat and doesn't like shopping! It's like she's not human!

Takeshi, …my…it sure is a nice day…can't let thoughts stray or will get killed…

"Krad-chan, you cold?"

Krad shook her head, "I still don't get why you have to force me to wear this…"

"You looks good in it, isn't that reason enough?" He gave her a peck on the head.

"Mou…do you really have to do this in public?"

"Shy are we? How about this, we still have some time left, so we can drop by your house and you can change, fair enough?" Golden eyes blinked, that was on of the only times Dark sounded genuinely considerate. She nodded dumbly, "Cheer up, it's a date remember?"

"…what movie are we watching?"

"I think it was called something like "Children of Hell" it's supposed to be a horror."

"That sounds…interesting."

"It's nice to know you're making an effort to be optimistic."

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

They headed to Satoshi's house to let Krad change into something else, which ended up a pair of loose fitting jeans with a black halter top, and her hair was set in a high ponytail. The thief grinned, "Not bad, now come on, it's movie time."

So at the movies, they bought the tickets, the popcorn and the drinks and found their seats. Amazingly enough, the horror movie was actually quite scary, possibly even scream-worthy, and those movies were quite hard to come across. Only really lucky people or people who got scared easily came across them. Dark's eyes widened as the children of hell attacked someone, it freaked him out, a lot.

Daisuke had buried his head in Satoshi's arm while the blue haired boy stared at the huge screen in front of him, inwardly terrified. Risa was half covering her eyes while Takeshi bit back a scream and had to plug his ears and close his eyes to stop from screaming. Krad on the other hand, was very interested in this so called human horror film. She grinned quite scarily as the guy's head blew up, maybe it wasn't as bad as she thought.

Her grin only grew when another person's head was blown up, and a child of hell emerged from his stomach, she rolled her eyes, that looks so fake…they look plastic…even the insides look fake…

And then, after the movie ended, everyone headed out to be blinded by the lights of the theater, most of them shivered, "That was so scary! I never want to watch it again!"

"I don't think I'm going to be sleeping tonight."

"The kids…they're evil!"

"No crap, they're the children of hell, what did you think they'd be? All happy and singing around in their magical land filled with prettiful unicorns?"

"That movie was great! Too bad the death scenes looked too fake…"

Everyone stared at the quite happy Krad, Dark grinned, "It's nice to know that someone liked it and wasn't scared."

Takeshi blinked, "Is it a girl thing to not be scared at horror movies?"

Satoshi's lip twitched, "No, it's just a Krad thing."

Krad just continued smiling.
