Oh la la! Isn't this exciting? Chapter 2, yay! I even made it extra long so that all of you can enjoy. Now, now the best part has yet to come! (grins) So, I had a little question on my previous chapter so I decided to answer it. Well yeah, they do know each others identity, but I just wanted this to be a normal day for them like regular teens you know?
Ok! Some points here, hmm... now what can I really say?
I guess for all of you to enjoy this chapter is all I can say!
Chapter 2: The Game
Everyone was speechless that even Minako (finally) releases Yaten and stared at Seiya, already they know EXACTLY what was going through her mind. The silver haired idol doesn't look comfortable, he stood as close to Taiki as possible. He doesn't know what that hyperactive senshi of love is capable of. At first they weren't sure about it and Taiki suspects that there was more than just innocent playing.
In the end they all sat in a circle and stared at each other; they were rather nervous and even though it was Seiya's bright idea he wouldn't start. He was planning on something and he patiently waits until it was his moment. The silence conitnues until one of them couldn't take it and grabbed the bottle. Everyone stared in awe as she was the least expected to start the game.
"Eeeh, pretty bold Odango" Seiya smirked and scoot a little closer, trying to lay his chin on her shoulder.
"Seiya!" She yelped when she felt something rest comfortably on her shoulder, her cheeks expressed the flaring redness that gave away her embarrassment. She spun the bottle and prayed for dear life that the bottle didn't stop at Seiya.
The bottle continued to spin which seemed endless until it stopped, everyone gulped and stared at the person who was pointed by the bottle. The tallest of the girls gasped and blushed softly, biting her fingernails slightly.
"Ah! Mako-chan" The bun haired girl bubbly spoke and smiled widely. "So, do you pick Truth or Dare?"
If I choose dare they might make me do something ridiculous. I'll be safe if I say "Truth!"Makoto stared intently at the bottle, feeling the drop of sweat falling from her chin. Who ever knew that choosing one word would be so complicated? In the end she made both fists and chirped. "Truth!"
"Ooooh" Everyone began as if they were the jury of a justice trial going on. Usagi smiled and wondered what type of question to ask. Makoto is a girl who loves to cook, arrange flowers, play rough sports, and is Sailor Jupiter. So, what's the one thing that Usagi doesn't know? An idea popped up in her mind but she was weary whether to ask this question or not; in the end she went for it.
"Mako-chan, is true that everytime you see a cute guy you always, somehow, refer to your sempai who broke your heart?"
The question struck her like a bolt lightning striking down at the ground, she began wrapping her finger with the loose end of her hair as she cheeks flushed. "Y-yeah... it's b-because... m-my sempai... wa-was really handsome..." She took a breather. "A-and... I... I guess they guys... r-resemble to him a lot" She admits.
Boy, that sempai must really be that unique to resemble A LOT of boys whom Makoto has met in her life, the group has always wondered why the tall brunette was so infatuated with her sempai. Guess they'll never know, after she was done, Makoto grins and spins the bottle. Once again, everyone was anxious as the bottle spun. Who will be the next victi- umm person to get chosen by the bottle of doom? The minutes passed as the object was slowing down, everyone held their breath as the glass bottle stopped.
"Oh my! It would have seem that I'm next" Taiki said calmly.
At first, the tall brunette was nervous and wasn't sure what to do. Sure she blurts out the truth and dare question, Taiki took a while to think of a response he looks into the eyes of the nervous Makoto and smiled softly.
"Alright, I pick Truth"
It was rather disappointing as Seiya actually hoped that his bandmate would have picked dare; it would've been interesting to see what kind of dare the girl would tell him to do and how he'd respond.
"Ne, ne... Taiki-san... umm..." This was really complexing, Makoto wasn't sure what to ask him but like any girl who is head-over-heels for the guy, she blurts out. "What kind of girls do you like!?" Makoto didn't realize it but her whole face turned into a bright red tomato. The question was very open and a little embarrassing.
"Well, to answer your question, with nothing but the truth" Taiki began, rubbing his chin slightly as he eyes on all girls, yes even the odango haired which Seiya made sure to block his view by sitting in front of her. Usagi blinked and looked at Seiya as she thought that he was a little weird for sitting in front of her but she didn't understand why. The tall man chuckled as his wooden colored eyes stared intensely at the blue haired one. His lips made an upright smirk.
"As far as... I know... I love calm and quiet girls. I don't care if they have long or short hair and neither do I mind if they're tall or short. I like a girl who knows what she's doing, well if she's responsible"
After he had stated why type of girl he likes, Makoto gulped. The poor girl was thinking that she might have a chance with him! The tall idol spun the bottle as everyone, especially Ami was very nervous. After what Taiki said she couldn't stop her pacing heart beat. She stared blankly as her ears heard loud noises and the hands waving around in front of her face. Finally, she came to realization that everyone was trying to snap her out of her daze.
"Ami-chan, look it's your turn now" Usagi points to the bottle which was now pointing at the genious.
"Well, this is interesting" The idol said, with his brown eyes fixated upon her aqua eyes. He clears his throat and rubs his chin. "Well, Mizuno-san... Truth or Dare?"
Tension once again took place, Ami stared deeply into his eyes and looked on the ground. Her fingers curled up as her hand became fists, she looks at the tall idol and said the unthinkable:
"Dare"
"Ami-chan!" Her friends yelled in unison.
"Oooh!" The two idols were in awe.
Taiki remained silent but on his face you can clearly see the shocked expression. With his mouth wide open that was able to catch the flies, he looked at her blankly before giving a soft nod. Now to think of a dare... What type of dare would be best? Nothing too silly but something funny, either way he had to think of something. There was a snap of his fingers and smiled evilly. Seiya and Yaten clinged to each other, they've never seen the tall man smile in that way! It was almost too scary to look at his evil face, they felt sorry for Ami.
"Mizuno-san... I'm apalled that you chose dare" He began, well he had to admit that it was a bold move. "This dare that I'm about to say will be something... you might not like" Once against he clears his throat as he rubs his chin. "Ami... I dare you... to NOT study on your own for the rest of the day!"
There was silence.
Everyone stared at Ami who was emotionless and speechless until she grabbed her hair with her hands. "Nooooo!! I can't bear one minute withou studying!" It was amusing seeing the genious going insane after receiving the ultimate penalty.
While Taiki tried to calm her down, Usagi decides to spin the bottle for her friend and as everyone waited for the bottle to stop. Suddenly, everyone gasped as both Taiki and Ami stared at the glass bottle that was now pointing towards...
"Oh my god! Yay! I'm so excited, ne, ne Ami-chan, I already choose dare! So dare me!" Well that was easy, the bubbly Minako already chose what she wants and it was up to Ami to fufill her wishes. With a nervous not followed by a smile, the worried genious wasn't sure what kind of dare she would give her. Thinking about it really and the fact that she was still hurt about not being able to study, so...
"Minako-chan, I dare you to take notes in class so that you can help me study. What I'm trying to say is... I dare you to study for me!" The wise soldier begged and looked straight into her friend's wide and shocked round eyes.
"Aack! Noooo!" The soldier of love went beserk and spun the bottle as she clings on to Yaten for dear life. She took the moment to take a nice whiff at his wonderful hair and take in the lovely aroma of strawberry scented shampoo!
"Yaten!" Everyone yelled, both the blond and the short idol stared down at the bottle which was not pointing at... Yaten! The blond grinned widely and looked at the nervous boy, she giggled and softly ran her fingers through his long ponytail. "Yaten-kun, truth or dare?" She gave him this naughty look almost expecting him to say "dare."
I'm a lot smarter than you think,he thought to himself and smirked. He remembers that even if he chose truth that Minako will still come up with anything to get what she wants. The fiesty idol grumbled and cursed under his breath and made a fist. Who ever knew that choosing either of the two words would be so difficult. Cursed that bubbly sailor soldier to be this giddy and spontanous everytime she's with him. Cursed the fact that she's Sailor Venus and having to represent a planet which actually represents Love makes her even worse! In the end and for who knows why, but maybe Yaten didn't dislike her as he thought.
"Dare me"
They all stared at the short idol; they never thought that he would say "dare" and especially to the lucky and hyper blond. After that word came out from his beautiful mouth, Minako wasn't sure what to say. There were many naughty actions that she planned to say and this was an opportunity that she can't afford to lose.
"Yaten-kun... I dare you... to... be my boyfriend!"
This was expected and it didn't really surprise him, but it still did, well kind of. With a heavy sigh and a slight smile he agrees and took her hand into his, staring into her precious blue eyes as he leaned in. With his free hand he spun the bottle and tried to get closer and closer to her pretty face, she blocked his face with her hand and yelped with a cute giggle.
"Not now, Yaten-kun!!"
"...women..." He grunts and takes a look at the bottle which has finally stopped. He has a huge grin on his face. "Heh, so who's my victim?"
"I am, short stuff" Came the voice that everyone thought they would never again. He has waited patiently all this time and laughed at everyone who took the crazy dares and truths. At last it was time for the raven haired to come out and have fun. He's been waiting patiently and now it's all paying off.
"Who you calling shorty!?" The silver haired scoweled and growled, gritting his teeth with an evil smile paste on his small face. He couldn't wait to humiliate his bandmate in any way possible. "C'mon Seiya, I know you like to have fun, so what are you waiting for and choose dare already!"
"Well, yeah you're right" Seiya smirks as he slips on his shades, he wanted to look cool in front of his odango even though she really didn't care; to Seiya it was all part of his plan. "I know the kind of dirty dares you want to throw at me, so for not I'll play it safe. I pick Truth, shorty"
"Kuso! I hate you!" Yaten snarled and just wished he could use Star Sensitive Inferno at him, then again there is one thing he can say. It's not really a secret among everyone, well... Except ONE. "Alright... Seiya Kou, is it true that you LOVE Tsukino Usagi?"
There was an uncomfortable pressure in the air as everyone was silent, Minako tugged at Yaten as if hushing him but the silver haired idol was having fun. He enjoyed looking at Seiya's surprised face even if he was wearing his shades. Everyone slowly looked over to the face of the golden bun-haired girl. Words can't describe what she's feeling. Her eyes were the size of spaghetti plates and her mouth wide open that could take in a cake, whole. Almost like a cartoon; the laces of her shiny golden hair blew out like strands of spider webs that covered the corner in between walls, her heart beating faster than ever that it could just spring out of her chest.
Seiya loved her? Since when? And why? She still has Mamoru and would never change him for anyone but he was gone; studying in America for his studies and it always made her wonder if he ever remembers her.
"Yes, I do" He confesses.
Usagi turned her head to look at him, he now spun the bottle and watched as the object whirled around while scraping against the concrete floor. Seiya was not looking at her, it made the bun-haired girl blush even more. Why was she feeling so nervous? Usagi couldn't concentrate on anything but that love confession, even if he had to say it because of the whole Truth and Dare game it still counts as a confession! She didn't notice the bottle stop nor the pointing fingers that were for her. That was only until the ebony haired idol shook her gently and leaned in closer to her face; only did she blink and backed away from him with an embarrassed blush on her cheeks.
"It's your turn, Odango" He began, still wearing those blasted sunglasses. Those damn sunglasses, oh how Usagi wanted to see his eyes, just to see what kind of reaction he has. If only she can reach out and swipe them off.
"A-ano... I... I..." She pulled herself together, playing around with the loose hair, Usagi looked straight into Seiya's eyes behind his dark sunglasses and said: "Dare"
He has been patient; waiting for everyone else to take a turn just for this moment. At long last his wish may finally come true, he removes his sunglasses as his dark blue eyes gazed down at a pair of light blue ones and smiled with happiness.
"Odango... I dare you to spend the whole day with me, and I mean that you stay with me for the whole day" Seiya grinned widely this time. "Call it like a date or you being my temporary girlfriend" Her smirks this time.
Actually, Odango... I want this be... Our special date, I promise to make it unforgettable. I really do wish that you could be my girlfriend, he mentally admits. As much as it pained him knowing that this is coming true only because of a silly game. All because of the game Truth and Dare, how low of him.
"I'll do it" Usagi blushed, why did she answer so calmly and without any resistance? She did it because she wanted to know something; Seiya's feelings. Mamo-chan you really hurt me... that time I called you... A woman answered....
The bell rang, game over and everyone looked at each other as if to remind one another of their dares. Each of them left as Ami was crying and wailing because she couldn't study on her own anymore; she has to rely on someone else to study with. Minako was sad and happy at the same time, she has to study but since she has Yaten by her side life was good to her. Makoto went along with her friends and since she couldn't help but feel sorry for her blue haired friend, Taiki and Yaten left to do what they must do, the tall man will hang around with the wise soldier and become her study buddy while the silver haired boy now must stay with the soldier of love.
Just the two of them and they know they have to get going but neither dared move. Five minutes later, he was the first to stand puts his sunglasses back on as he walks off. He stops at least three inches away from her and looked back with a smirk. He seems really eager about this.
"Oi, Odango ready to go? Remember your dare"
"Un! I didn't forget, baka" She stood up and looked at him for a brief moment before walking off with him.
Was it good? Was it good? Oh please let me know my dear audience!
I've been having a lot of inspiration lately with the whole SeiyaXUsagi, you can blame Sailor Moon Stars for getting me involved in this. I have no regrets though! I'm happy about it, oh!! I have a new idea for an upcoming fic that might appear soon, but I don't want to excite you guys, yet!
(Last time I said "soon" all of a sudden I got a major writer's block and never wrote again (sweatdrop) so yeah)
