Misaki woke up to a beautifully humid already almost ninety degree morning. She felt like her head weighed a thousand pounds. 'I guess that's from all my crying... Uhhh... Why does it have to be so hot again...' she thought.
It was way past her usual wake up time, last nights events took a toll on her. Sitting on the edge of her bed she stretched her leg out, and wriggled her foot to see if her ankle was still sore. 'Almost all better...'. She went over to her desk and took one more Tylenol, just to ease any discomfort until she was fully healed.
'There is no way I am letting that Baka get to me today, like last night. He thinks he can play with my emotions... Well I'll show him...' Misaki thought.
Misaki hurried up getting dressed, glaring daggers at Suzuna as she ran out the front door.
"Misaki! You forgot your lunch!" Minako yelled put the front door towards her daughter. 'That careless child, she's already so far she couldn't hear me... I'm so thankful for Usui, I'm sure he'll look after her again today...'
If Misaki thought yesterday was bad, today was even worse opening the school up, and she was running on an empty stomach. She finally made it to the rooftop to let the last of the hot and humid burst out, and she was dripping with sweat. She looked out at the town landscape, and sighed. 'Only four more days of this, and then maybe I can get a break since I don't work on Saturday...'
Hearing faint voices she look down to see some students starting to arrive. 'Oh man, I can't believe how late I'm running... I haven't even gone to the council room to write up today's announcements... Uggghhhh!'. So with a scowl she ran to the council room to try and scrounge something up before Yukimura and the rest of the council arrive.
As she was flying down the last staircase to the second floor her ankle suddenly gave out. 'Now I'm really flying...' Misaki thought, and braced herself for a rough impact. After banging against the railing hard, and flopping down the stairs she landed on something hard, but still kind of soft, very unlike the stairwell floor. And it was warm. And it smelled like an alien.
Good thing Usui was early and headed upstairs to bug her when she landed on top of him. Deciding to tease her he said something no girl would ever want to hear.
"Geez Ayuzawa, I feel like a one ton anvil just dropped on me..."
Hearing HIS voice, confirming her suspicion of who was her landing pad, and what he said made her very angry. Misaki pushed herself up on her arms and looked at the blonde.
"Usui... " she started... But decided to get him back. She grabbed his wrists with her hands and pinned them down next to his head. 'He thinks he can tease me like that after leaving last night... I'll show him... Get ready for a taste of your own medicine baka..' she thought and smirked.
"Oh Usui... I have a question for you.." she said in he sexiest voice.
"Oh? And what question is that Misa-chan...?" he asked back, thinking she was going to ask for another kiss.
"Have you ever played a game called worm?"
"Worm? I've never heard of it Misa-chan... Would you show me how to play?... " he was smirking now. He was do sure this 'game' had to deal with kissing now, the heat fogging his better judgment. Because if he was thinking clearly at the moment, he would have noticed the demon hiding just beneath the surface in his Misa-chan's eyes.
Her grip tightened on his wrists a bit, and she smiled at him.
"Well one person pins the other person down..."
"Yes..."
"And then they look them right in the eyes..."
"Then what do they do Misa-chan?"
"They do this!" she said. And the spit she had been pooling in her mouth went down towards his face as a loogie. His eyes were wide in panic and his whole body tensed up. But Misaki slurped the spit back into her mouth before it touched him.
She go up off of the alien who was still in a bit of a fright, brushed herself off, and walked to the doorway.
"That's what you get for calling me an anvil you perverted alien stalker...". She smiled and headed to the front doors to start greeting students.
'That little... I can't believe she... Oh I'll get her... Oh I will indeed get her back..' Usui was already scheming, he was sure he would pay his little demon president back for that.
As the day made it's way closer to their lunch period, Misaki could feel Usui's eyes burning into her every time she went down the hallway. 'I have a really bad gut feeling... He is definitely planning something to get back at me... I know it...'. Walking to her last class (gym) before lunch, Misaki didn't see Usui, and she didn't feel his gaze on her if he had been hiding from her line of vision. The feeling of dread was building in her stomach. 'I have this feeling again... Something is going to happen...'
Misaki entered the cafeteria, the cool air very refreshing and mind-clearing. It was rare for her to be in there, the lunch aids were in charge of keeping order inside while Misaki usually ate outside and monitored the school grounds. But she had forgotten her lunch today like a baka, luckily she brought a few dollars with her so she could buy a little something.
As she was waiting in line for food, a bad chill ran up her spine. Where was Usui? She hadn't seen the alien for the last hour or so. She was nearing the front of the line and grabbed a tray.
'Wow the cafeteria food sure smells good today...' she thought. 'Hmmmm the chicken curry is on special today... I even have enough for a drink!' Feeling a bit excited and a little relieved, she let the lunch lady fill her tray.
"One curry please and a melon soda!" she asked. The lunch lady... Looked 'awfully strange' she thought. Wearing a veil from her nose down and a very floppy cooks hat, along with an oversized apron. 'Hmmm she must be new...'
She got her tray back with a large helping and her soda. She paid at the end of the line and thanked the cashier. Since she still had her lunchtime duties... She would still eat at her special rooftop spot. Misaki was so intent on relaxing and finally eating something, she didn't notice a certain lung lady slip by her with 'her' own tray.
When Misaki reached the rooftop, she saw a familiar blonde alien head leaning up against the wall with a lunch tray. 'Keep your cool Misaki! He's up to no good! Remember last night. Stay angry!' she told herself.
"Why good afternoon Misa-chan..." he said. Misaki nodded a hello, not wanting to speak to him just yet.
"I see you got the same as me today Misa-chan, did you forget your lunch today?" he asked.
"I did.". Unable to hold it in anymore she exploded! "I know that you are up to something baka! Just get it over with already so I can give you detention for a month!"
"Oh, very perceptive, I am indeed up to something. Some much needed revenge..."
Misaki just glared at him.
"However," he continued. "I would much rather avoid detention, so I can stalk you as usual after school... How about a contest? If you win, I leave you alone and don't extract my revenge."
Feeling intrigued, she replied. "And if I lose... What do you get?"
"Oh nothing really, just a kiss from my darling Misa-chan..."
"Don't get your hopes up pervert, I want to know what the contest is before I agree to anything."
"Oh I thought I told you." Usui was really pulling this off. His acting was top of the line. "Just a simple eating contest. Since we both got the 'same' thing for lunch and all..."
"I accept your challenge. Are there any rules?"
"Only that your plate must be licked clean to win."
'Such a freaking pervert... But I have this in the bag. I almost beat Shintani at an eating contest, I can beat Usui...' she thought.
Poor Misaki. If only she hadn't been distracted she would have known it was Usui posing as a lunch lady that gave her her food. If she only took a closer look and smell she would have noticed the red chilies, black pepper, and hot sauce mixed in her food. Smirking at Usui, she felt very confident she would win.
Smirking at Misaki, he knew she had no idea what he had in store for her. He would win, and get his revenge. He glanced up at the sun. It was sweltering up on the roof, this was going to be one 'hot' contest.
"You ready?" he asked her.
"Of course I am."
"Alright then... One, two, three, eat!" he yelled and took the first bite of his food. And Misaki took a bite of hers. She chewed quickly and swallowed. 'Wow, this sure is spicy...' she thought.
Usui's own lunch didn't have all the extra ingredients in it, but he was eating slowly, so Misaki wouldn't think he sabotaged the contest.
'Shit..' she thought as she sent a 'haha take that' glare Usui's way. 'This is too hot... My mouth is burning... I'm only six bites in and I'm sweating over this... Must be the spices... Making my body get hot... ' She was kind of panicking now in her mind. Fear of losing, fear of kissing HIM and having those feelings return, fear of losing to him once again were driving her. 'I can't let him win...'
Usui's inner perverted alien stalker was cracking up inside. Although a part of him felt bad, and worried about her, he knew he would take care of her afterwards.
'Only ten bites to go...' she thought. 'Nine...' Nine. Bite number nine was the worst yet. The spices and hot sauce must have clumped up in that bite, making it almost unbearable. It was in fact unbearable, but Misaki was pushing herself as hard a she could, trying to use her anger as fuel to win. She gulped down number nine... Her body was on fire! Usui was even with her, no undoubtably to her his food was spicy as well, that's why he was also very quiet and eating slowly. She looked up into his eyes as she put bite number eight into her mouth. 'Fuck! It's even hotter!' she thought. With burning and watering eyes she into Usui's. And she saw laughter behind them. Evil, alien, laughter.
'What... The... Hell...'
Usui then started to shovel the food into his mouth, and soon only had one bite left. Seeing him quicken his pace Misaki panicked and managed to shove five more bites into her mouth. But she looked up and saw HIM. HIM... With only one bite just inches from that mouth. That stupid smirk on his face, tormenting her.
And then it was over. He took the last bite and swallowed. He gave her his sweetest, most innocent smile. He reached over and took her chopsticks and put them down. He then took a dumbfounded Misaki's hand and pulled he to stand up, walking a few feet from their lunches.
She was beyond angry. She was so hot she couldn't think. Her mouth was on fire, and she lost to HIM. She went along as he pulled her. And she watched him pick up his bottle of water. She suddenly felt like she was going to die of thirst as she watched him take a few gulps.
"Usui..." she said restraining her anger.
"Yes, my darling Misa-chan?" he whispered with such a seductive tone she got another chill.
"May I have a sip of your water please?" she had completely forgotten about her soda.
"Hmmm... Sure, but only after you give me my prize..." he whispered again.
Panicking for a drink she basically threw herself at him.
"Now, now Misa-chan, I wish to savor my victory..."
He grabbed her shoulders to slow her down, and then slowly wrapped his arm around her waist. His other hand brushing against her side and then slowly tracing along her collar bone before stopping at the nape of her neck. Misaki felt all the anger leave her body, only the heat remained. Chill after chill ran through her body, and butterflies were doing somersaults in her stomach. Her head was so hot and so fuzzy she could barely form coherent thoughts.
His touch made her only know and feel him. The heat blinded her from her rage. And his lips, cold from the water, engulfed her own.
