A/N: And here is the next one! Please read and review… This chap's set the next school year. Enjoy!
The More You Hate, the More You Love
"Hey! Emina! Wait up!" Juubei shouted at Emina's walking figure down the hallway. They were back at school again, and this was their first day. Emina stopped and waited for him.
"What is it, Juubei?" Emina asked him rather sweetly. "Or should I say… honey?" She added in a whisper while giggling.
"What are you saying?" Juubei asked, dumbfounded.
"We're engaged, stupid. Didn't your parents tell you?"
"What?! Since when?!" Juubei said rather loudly, which made everyone look at them.
"Last night, of course. Your parents went to my house to arrange our engagement. And now, you're all mine, Juubei…" Emina tried to cling onto him, but Juubei slapped her arm away and ran in the opposite direction.
"Hi, Juubei." Kazuki simply greeted while waving to Juubei to join them.
"Hello, love." Juubei greeted with a fake smile. "And Ginji."
"Hiya." Ginji waved while spooning mashed potato in his mouth. Juubei took the seat across Kazuki and ate his lunch quietly.
Kazuki noticed his sullen mood. "What's the matter, Juubei? You look like someone died or something."
"I feel like I died." Juubei whispered to himself.
"Huh?" Kazuki inquired curiously.
"Oh, nothing, don't let my mood ruin yours and eat, love. I'll finish up in a minute because I have something to attend to, okay?" With that, Juubei finished his sandwich in one bite, drank his coke in one gulp and ran out the cafeteria. Kazuki and Ginji were left speechless.
"… He's gonna get indigestion." Kazuki managed to joke. Both of them laughed.
After school, Juubei pulled Emina aside and confronted her.
"What's the big deal with this morning, huh?" Juubei asked her seriously.
"Nothing, I was just telling you the truth." Emina said while shrugging her shoulders. Juubei shook his head.
"I'm sorry, Emina. You're a nice girl and all, but I love Kazuki. I can't possibly marry you!"
"But Juubei! I don't care if you don't love me. You will marry me and that's final. If you don't, I'll make sure you suffer for the rest of your life!" With that, Emina stomped away.
I can't possibly tell Kazuki this. Juubei despairingly thought while walking home. I'll make sure that I fix this problem and we're good. I love Kazuki and will fight for it no matter what.
End of chapter
A/N: I'm seriously thinking of killing Emina off. Do all of you out there agree? Hehe, just joking. This wouldn't be a good fic without her! Anyway, please read and review… Thanks! This is a really short chap, though… Sorry!
