A/N This chapter is mostly focused on Amu talking to her teacher about Ikuto. This chapter is also a little short.
There is no way I'm working with him.
While I was sulking in my seat Mrs. Lulu passed out papers that had the information of the project. The class went by slowly and when it finally ended I jumped up from my seat and asked Mrs. Lulu all my questions.
"Mrs. Lulu?" I asked when the class room was finally empty.
"Yes, Amu what is it?" Mrs. Lulu responded looking up from her desk. "I don't think I can work well with Ikuto." I told Mrs. Lulu. She let out a sigh then explained everything. "There is a reason I sat you two at the same table. I think this little feud between you two needs to be forgotten." Mrs. Lulu said looking me straight in the eye. Feud? There is no feud between us. I don't do anything to him.
"Okay, I can understand paring us up for that reason, but he has a record of not doing any of the work with a partner." I explained. "Well, that is a good reason for not wanting to work with him, but this could be something good for you two. Did you know that guys show their feelings for girls through teasing them? Maybe Ikuto is teasing you because he likes you but it got a little too much." Mrs. Lulu said with a smile. I couldn't help but blush at that statement and I turned my head.
Yeah right, the school's most popular guy likes me? "He teases me because he hates me," I told her with a slight laugh. Mrs. Lulu let out another sigh then looked at me again. "You never know Amu, guys hide their feelings very well. I know I'm playing match maker here but I think you two working together is going to work fine." She got up from her chair, walked over to me and patted me on the back.
There was a long silence in the room and I just wanted to leave. "I think I'm going to lunch now," I said desperately wanting to leave. I started to walk to the door but Mrs. Lulu called me back. "Amu, always stay optimistic. Don't let what others say about you get you down." Mrs. Lulu said with a serious face.
"I'll keep that in mind," I said giving a smile then finally walking away. Walking to lunch I couldn't help thinking about Mrs. Lulu's words. 'Maybe Ikuto is teasing you because he likes you but it got a little too much.'
If she thinks he likes me she is completely wrong. He's hated me since sixth grade. I walked to my locker getting my things for my next classes and I noticed a stray note on my locker 'Just die already'.
I felt the tears starting to form in my eyes. I took the note off, walked to Ikuto's locker and stuck the note on there.
I don't care how much you hate I'm not going anywhere. I continued walking to the cafeteria with no thoughts in my mind.
A/N I decided that I'll update every Friday if not any earlier. Please review!
