Chapter Four

Awaken

"Wait...you know her?" Yuske eyed his long time friend. He acted hurt. "Aw man..and you never told me about her? I mean shes pretty hot"

Daichi grinned. He wasn't the only one who was saying that. A lot of the girls in the class were saying the exact same thing, and some boys were whistling when she was walking towards her seat. Of course she maintained her smile while she sat and immediately made quick friends with some of the girls.

"How did you meet her?" Daichi noticed that Yuske asked another question. He looked at his friend and noticed him grinning. "What?"

"You like her don't you?" His grin was even wider. Showing his bright white teeth.

Daichi turned away. "No way...shes just a friend. That's all we'll ever be"

Yuske shrugged. "If you say so, lover boy" he teased. Which just got a groan from Daichi. At times Yuske got annoying, but that's what he did best. Daichi didn't mind if he played around with him every once in a while. He just didnt like it if Yuske did it all the time.

Daichi looked towards Kasumi one more time. She didn't seem to be engrossed with her conversation with the girls, as she turned her head to see what he was doing. "Shes really serious about the bodyguard thing then.." He sighed with relief. At least she'll be safe for now.

The Teacher once again commanded attention. It was time for class to start. Daichi sighed. He hated math and wanted this day to be over.

A couple of boring classes later. Daichi ended up in the lunchroom. He didnt really eat much, thinking that the lunch food was horribly...well..horrible. He sat in an isolated area. Away from everyone except his chattering friend Yuske. He chuckled. The person with the same name as him was nothing alike.

"Hello! Can i sit here?" The familiar voice said. Daichi, who was staring blankly into the lunchroom, looked at his speaker. It was none other than Kasumi. Yuske grinned once again. Forcing Daichi to groan, he knew exactly what he was planning, and he didnt like it one bit.

"Yes of course Ms Miyuki. Must i say..you look very beautiful" Yuske gave out what he called his "Super Smiley" smile. He would say he gets all the girls once he pulled the move.

Kasumi laughed. "Why thank you Mr..."

"Its Yuske Nagata" He smiled again.

Daichi sighed and leaned back on his chair. Kasumi turned to him. "Something wrong?" There it was again. That cold sense of feeling. Like she had no emotion in her voice. Daichi guessed that she was asking the question as a bodyguard, not as a friend.

"No...everything's fine" Daichi smiled at her. She nodded and once again began talking to Yuske. Although it was Yuske who was mouthing off. Talking about how he's so awesome at video games. Daichi was surprised at how Kasumi seemed so calm. Nodding at random things. He couldn't even tell if she was bored or was actually paying attention to him. She picked up the rice ball from her tray and took a bite. All while Yuske was still talking.

"And then BAM! Daichi didn't know what hit him!" Yuske finished. Daichi just shook his head while Kasumi giggled. Yuske took this as a sign and moved closer to her.

"That was a very...interesting story" She giggled again. Which made Yuske smile. "Really? You thought it was cool?"

Kasumi nodded. "I guess" She fixed a smile at him. "But...could i grab Daichi for a minute?" Even without waiting for an answer. Kasumi grabbed Daichi's hand and pulled him to the corner of the lunchroom. Daichi felt like a ragdoll. Almost flying past her when they stopped. "Wha...what?"

Kasumi shook her head. "How..do you even..." She looked at Yuske who waved at her. "He's getting the wrong message.."

Daichi laughed and scratched his head. "Yea...you'll get used to him. He's not that bad once you get to know him"

"I hope so" Kasumi finished.
