Last chappy peoples!
The next morning went much more smoother than the last. I walked past the office determined not to go in and kill the secretary, but I heard a familiar shrill voice call me. What could she possibly want, for me to kick her to China? It wasn't as if I was bothering her. I gritted my teeth as I walked into the office. "Yes?"
"Hi sweetheart." I grimaced at the unusual amount of sweetness in her voice. "I just wanted to apologize for yesterday. You know, when I yelled at you."
That was...unexpected. Why was she suddenly apologizing to me? "Oh, well, thank you?" What was I suppose to say?
"It's just that I didn't take the time to even consider your situation." I froze; that sounded strangely familiar.
"Oh...it's okay," I said completely puzzled.
"No, no. I jumped at you and you were only trying to get to class on time. You're such a dedicated student." I felt one of my eye brows lift. "Okay! Now off to class with you," she exclaimed as she shot out of her chair and ushered me out the door.
I spent the rest of the day trying to figure out why the secretary apologized to me. I was so into my thoughts that I didn't even notice Horo come and sit next to me at lunch. "So what did Mrs. Washmen say?"
My head shot out of my dazed trance. "Who?"
"Mrs. Washmen apologized, didn't she?"
I searched my brain for a face that would match the name but there were no matches. "Who's that?"
Horo grinned. "The office secretary, Ren."
" How'd you know that she apologized to me," I questioned Horo.
He laughed, "Because I told her to."
Now I was completely lost. Horo told Mrs. Washmen or whoever to apologize, and she listened to him; that didn't make any sense in my mind.
"Yep. She and I go way back...to the beginning of the year." he glanced at me and offered me the milk he bought.
"...What?"
He grinned sheepishly. "Well, I did tell you that I got in trouble for things way worse than what you got into trouble for." He popped a fry into his mouth. "Yeah, I've been to the office so much that she and I have become friends."
I was completely shocked. "You became friends with an old woman?" Disbelief came out of my mouth unwillingly.
He kept eating his fries while saying, "Well yeah. So I went there yesterday, not that I had any choice I had a detention, and talked to her about you." He laughed, "I can't believe she actually apologized to you though. Man, I must be one smooth guy!"
I resisted the urge to roll my eyes in favor of taunting Horo. "No you're not."
He stopped smiling. "Yes I am."
We glared at each other. "No you're not," I said.
Apparently he got mad after that because he threw down his fries and almost shouted, "Yes I am!"
I smirked and drank the milk he gave me. "Sure, Horo."
"Shut it."
"Alright, BoroBoro." With that he pushed me up to the wall face full of devilish delight. "Horo," I said in a firm tone expecting him to get his hands off my arms, but instead he pressed his lips to mine. The kiss was soft yet deep and completely unexpected. However, I soon found myself melting my lips to Horo's, my stomach twisting every time he touched my face or ran his hands through my hair. After a while I shoved him off of me; my face was red and my breathing was uneven.
"Ah Ren." It was his turn to taunt me. "Was that your first kiss?"
"Shut it."
"Want another one?"
I looked at him. "I, um...you...thank you," I stuttered.
He grinned. "For the kiss or Mrs. Washmen?" Great more taunting.
"Both," I admitted truthfully.
He replied by leaning me against the wall, "Your welcome Renny," he said before closing the gap between our lips.
Heh, we were still in the cafeteria weren't we...oops.
There you go! I hoped you enjoyed my story! You can actually tell me if you did with reviews (hint, hint). Thank you for reading!
