Sorry for not updating T.T I do have an excuse although you probably don't care. I will tell you any.
Well in Scotland, when you are a fifth year you have to sit these courses and exams which are called Highers. They were created by the devil himself. Anyway I had prelims for them recently and have sorta been studying my butt off, still I have failed them all :cry.English probably the worst or maths... which is my best subject.
So if I do horribly may lose my laptop ¬.¬ And all of this put together kinda got me down and I ended up writing a chapter which wouldn't fit in here and was very odd. I may fit it in later maybe not. Anyway as I broke down my cat Koneko had kittens and she has been putting them on my lap and my laptop since the moment they were born. There are three and I named one Kuro-rin after Kurogane in Tsubasa.
Also I thought I would inform you all that I do this beta-less so if you find faults, just tell me.
Well about the story, there is a surprise this chapter!
It was the day after that fateful 'incident' and Narumi's mood had not gotten any better, in fact, after having thought about it all night, it had gotten far, FAR worse.
It was so bad that even his most loyal fangirls ran away screaming at the top of their lungs. All due to a simple glare. The glare did promise an eternity of hell and that they wouldn't to see the next day, but what glares of his didn't.
He had concluded that it must of been the extra malice, that his other looks lacked. He cheered up slightly at that thought, a smirk spreading across his handsome features.
Kiri unaffected by the whole affair walked into school and through the gates towards Kanako and Taro-tard with the same air of indifference she held everyday.
She did not notice that to reach Kanako and Taro-tard she would have to past two of (in)famous SP, Ochia and Kei. Kiri had other important matters on her mind after all, for example what classes to sleep in and a good lunch-time-nap spot.
But the fact that she was walking in their direction and past them, was not lost on the 'innocent' Kei and calculating Ochia.
Ochia, since the minute he had noticed her, had kept his eyes on her. All the while a nervous beat had been developing in his chest, a beat that seemed faster than humanly possible.
His thoughts wondered as his eyes did the same, taking in her slouched poster and dragged steps as if each one, in its own right, was a precious gem.
SMACK!
His thoughts were interrupted by a slap on the back. It still stung as Ochia turned his head in the direction of the offender. Narumi stood there grinning, a teasing hint stood in the air but it failed to reach Narumi's eyes.
'Narumi seems to be acting the same but...', Ochia pondered while raising his hand to his chin. '... his smile is forced'
Ochia stood there and watched as Narumi and Kei fooled around and something clicked, 'Narumi was still bothered by yesterday', he silently proclaimed to himself as he pounded his hand with the other.
Despite his ill feelings towards it, a smirk grew on his face of the bespectled boy. Narumi was easier to tease and annoy in this state.
Ochia interrupted the conversation going on between his two friends. "Kei, Kiri-kohai should be attending the meeting after school, yes?"
A side glance at Narumi told Ochia that he had got what he had wanted. Narumi was standing their in shock, he shook his head violently and growled storming past them both and straight into the person who he would have given his precious scissors to avoid.
The girl in question looked up, a slight crease forming between her eyebrows.
"Naru-naru sempai?" she questioned, an eyebrow raised at his peculiar behaviour.
Meanwhile alarm bells were going off in Narumi's head as her big brown eyes gazed up at him.
'Dammit, I need to get away', he internally instructed while shaking his head and frowning.
He grabbed her by her shoulders, apologized quietly, then rushed off to class. An unexplainable tinge of red placed delicately across his cheeks, while his ears were as red as a tomato.
Kiri dusted off her shoulders, turned in an attempt to reach her intended goal and once again bumped into another - slightly softer - obstacle.
Sighing she lifted her head, a pure look of displeasement etched across her usually indifferent face.
She paused sightly and her face blanked. She blinked, focusing her attention once more on the situation at hand. In front of her stood one of the biggest idiots in the world, her former best friend. He stood there with a smug yet gentle smile, his eyes full of recognition.
He still had his height to hold over her, at least taller than Ochia now, she mentally noted. A constant scowl adorned his face and a small smirk grew in remembrance, she seriously believed that they were stuck that way by now. His charcoal hair hung haphazardly around his face, slightly masking his eyes and doing him no favors at all. Her left hand twitched sightly. His eyes, which she had learned were his most expressive feature still held that fascinating steel gray colour.
She concluded that he was still the same but... he held this maturity that she still lacked, that she thought she would never acquire.
Ochia stood beside Kei, watching the complete stranger gaze intently at Kiri - His Crush. His glasses flashed against the light as his mind furiously clicked and clanked, desperately grasping for any information on the possible foe, a name, a weakness even his favorite colour.
He was brought back from his inner panic attack and database malfunction at the sound of Kiri's voice.
Her voice remained indifferent as she called his name: "Kyoya...". Yet her eyes held an unexplainable glisten or sparkle, maybe even a dullness, it was something undecipherable and something that was never used for anyone else.
Kyoya smirked, his eyes briefly glancing to the side and by chance catching Ochia with his jaw on the floor, disbelief painted across the poor boys face.
"Imagine seeing you here!" he smiled brightly his head titled to the side and his gaze focused on Kiri.
Kei frowned.
'Who was this Kyoya?' he pondered.
'Why did he gaze at Kiri in such a way?' he questioned
'AND where were his crisps...?', he would of cried if he didn't also have chocolate.
Among these questions Kei thanked whoever that guy was upstairs for the fact that Naru-naru wasn't here to see the sight.
The news of the appearance of this unusual stranger needed to be broken to him gently... after all "Kyoya" could be a rival to Kiri and Naru-rin's LOVE LOVE.
Kei grinned running running ahead to class leaving Ochia standing there, his detached soul slowly floating upwards while Kanako stood in awe and watched the wee ghost like creature escaping the temporarily unavailable host.
Not much of poor Naru-rin this chapter. Introducing Iori next chapter... I think. Also more surprises on the way.
Well , I would like to know what you think? What is your opinion of the new arrival? His role at the moment may be important. Not decided yet really. Give me feedback please. Also after this is posted I am starting on my next chapter. The plotbunnies are rolling in.
Also I am working on a very very mushy, well as mushy as I can get one-shot for my collection. Conveniently named 'A Collection'... my imagination is as useful as always. Check it out xP
Thank you for being patient and taking your time to read this.
