Well hello there again. Rin here and I managed to get another chapter done in the same week as the first one was upload. WOO-HOO, I'M ON A GOOD ROLL! XDDDD Okay so this chapter is a little longer and this one might be a little boring, but I needed to get me to a good point. The third chapter will hopefully be amazing and totally kick butt (highlty unlikely). So anyway enjoy! Oh and here's a reply to the review:
Roman Juliet: thank u for the compliment! i didn't think the first chapter was great, but at least someone thinks so. and i didn't realize i made Teto and Miku sound so evil XD. oh well. I also adore MikuoxRin stories, but I do also love RinxLen.
Band Class
"Music order is on the board so there is no reason for any of you not to have your music ready to go," Luka Sensei called out. She pulled the thin, white baton out of the plastic case she kept it in and got her own scores in order.
"Rin, are you there? Earth to Rin," Gumi's voice broke me out of my trance.
"Huh, oh uh sorry about that Gumi!" I smiled sheepishly at the green haired flute player. We weren't super close friends, but we did talk during band class since we sat next to each other.
Gumi sighed as she twisted the head joint of her flute around so that it was lined up correctly. "What are you so spacey for? I thought you loved this class yet you always seem to be concentrated on something else."
I looked away trying to hide my embarrassment and rubbing the back of my head with discomfort. "It's nothing, really." No way did I want the entire school finding out my secret just because my two friends knew.
As I was pulling my music out of my folder, I became aware of a hand waving at me from across the room.
Teto was sitting across from me and she was sitting as tall as she could, her face making some weird concentrated expression as she tried to get my attention.
With a sigh, I got up (flute still in hand) and made my way over to the red haired psycho. "Yes, what can I do for you?"
"Finally; I've been trying to get your attention for like, five minutes!" Teto said in exasperation. "I just noticed that you seem to be staring in the direction of a certain someone. Better be careful other wise you might get majorly distracted and get in trouble." She winked at me as the teacher got up on the podium.
I raced back over to my chair, sliding into my seat in just the knick of time.
"Thank you Rin, for being on time," Luka Sensei commented on my dash over to my seat without looking up. She raised her baton and looking around to make sure she had everyone's eyes, she took a breath and started us off on our warm ups.
The warm ups weren't hard, so I could easily glance over at Mikuo constantly.
Mikuo was on the edge of his seat so that he could have perfect posture. His fingers were moving smoothly over the keys without any trouble what so ever.
I inwardly sighed. Why did I have to be so average looking? What guy would want a girl who looked anything like me? And while it's true guys in a music school like girls who play instruments really well and sing awesomely, that didn't change my looks. One look at me and any sort of crush would be squashed for all eternity within the mind of a teenage boy.
An elbow in my side made me jump and a high pitched squeak came out of my flute. I glared at Gumi who was the culprit and asked out right, "What the hell was that for!"
"I would appreciate it if you didn't use that kind of language in my class and the reason I had Gumi elbow you was because I cut off five seconds ago and you were still holding the last note. Pay attention; you're not first chair for nothing," Luka Sensei scolded sternly yet gently at the same time. She brushed her long pink hair behind one ear and flipped a couple pages in one of the music books.
I blushed a deep shade of red as some people snickered.
Teto shot me a comforting glance before she shuffled around her own music.
With a heavy sigh I found the next song we were playing. I couldn't help but glance over at Mikuo to see if I could see what he thought of my stupidity.
He had a light smile on his face and it seemed like he was trying to not look at me.
Great; now he thinks I'm an idiot. I mentally smacked myself.
"Rinny-chan, you can't let your little crush control all your focus," Miku gently reprimanded me. It hadn't taken long for my stupid mistake to leak into the orchestra room.
"I know. I'm usually pretty good at paying attention, but I guess I let myself get a smidge too distracted." At least I now knew not to let myself think about him at all while playing anything.
We were now sitting in the classroom eating lunch. There were a few other small groups of people, but most people ate in the cafeteria. I couldn't understand why people chose to eat in that loud, smelly place.
"If you guys keep picking on me about this I just might never tell you another secret again," I tried threatening to get them to leave the subject alone.
"You didn't actually tell us; I just figured it out. And there is not way that you would actually never tell us a secret again." Teto had easily seen through my ruse.
Instead of answering, I popped a slice of orange into my mouth. Don't ask why but I have this obsession with oranges. I just think they are the most things ever; I even have orange smelling shampoo and body wash. I'm not the only one with an odd obsession though; Len loves bananas just as much as I love oranges and Miku loves leeks as much as I love oranges.
Actually, Miku was eating/drinking (I think you drink soup since you don't bite soup when it's in your mouth) leek soup.
Miku was happily sipping her soup anyway, but she stopped dead when she looked at the door. A smile slowly spread across her face and she sat up with a triumphant look on her face. "Ah, otouto-kun, what are you doing here?"
I froze instantly. Miku only had one younger brother, so it was pretty obvious who it was.
"Hey Onee-chan. I actually needed to Rin for a minute," Mikuo's heavenly voice was only a few inches behind me.
I forced my head to turn around and looked up at Mikuo giving my best attempt to look normal and not like my heart was about ready to beat out of my chest. "You needed to talk to me?"
"We have cleaning duty after school this whole week and Sensei told me to let you know. So I'll see you after school?" Mikuo said it as a question, but he knew what my answer would be. Nobody could skip out on cleaning duties. That was just asking for your death.
"Y-yeah, I'll see you after school." I attempted a smile which apparently came across normally since Mikuo said goodbye without looking creeped out and walked away.
"Look, now you've got a whole week alone with him to confess," Teto instantly pointed out what was on all our minds as soon as the tealette was out of ear shot.
I wanted to confess so much but I was scared of rejection and I had no idea how to tell someone that I liked them. I'd never had to do that before. "There should be a book on how to confess. It's not an easy thing and someone has to know how to do it."
"You know Miku-chan, you really don't have anything to say in this matter. If I remember correctly, and I do, you like a certain ice cream loving boy named Kaito and you haven't said anything to him," Teto interjected before Miku could say anything.
Miku's mouth snapped shut at that comment and her face turned apple red.
I laughed and said through my laughter, "Maybe we both need to read a book on how to confess." The rest of lunch passed by with us talking about random things and by the time the bell rang my stomach hurt like hell from laughing so much.
As everyone as getting into their seat the realization hit me that I had one more class period before school was over. That meant that I had an hour and twenty minutes before Mikuo and I had clean up duty together alone.
Rin whatever you do don't make a fool of yourself, got it? He may not think you're an idiot, but if you screw this up he'll definitely think you're a dumb blonde. I kept giving myself this mental pep-talk as Gackupo Sensei droned on about history.
Before I knew it, the bell rang out loud and clear. It was time. I had to make sure I didn't do anything spacey or stupid or babble like an idiot all day long.
Everyone was gone in a flash, talking and laughing about stuff they saw on TV or what happened during the school day.
At the door Teto and Miku both turned to me and gave me a thumbs up before leaving.
Sooner than I had wanted Mikuo and I were alone in the classroom.
DUN DUN DUN. Rin is finally alone with Mikuo; how will it go! So yeah I decided to leave the story there since I can totally work on that and make an awesome chapter. I've decided that I will write this story with my Itunes on shuffle (I only do that for my personal stories cause I thought doing that with a fanfic would screw me over, but I guess not). So yeah rate and review please! I will get the next chapter out as soon as possible. bye bye! =^-^=
