(Author POV)
The girl with a long purple tresses slowly opened her eyes. She was in a deep slumber before, but she knows that she needed to stand up from her bed or else she will be late again on school. She headed towards her bathroom and took a quick shower put on her uniform and headed downstairs to take breakfast. She opened her fridge took a bottle of milk and cereals. She sits on the table. Somehow she feels lonely because whenever she wakes up in the morning no one is there to take care of her and to serve her breakfast. Sometimes, she blames herself for acting independent. She lives alone in a big house all by herself, her parents really did not abandoned her. In fact she even receives a big amount of allowance every week from her mom and dad. She did not have any grudges on them but somehow she wish that they could be together just like old times, when her mother and father still love each other. But reality checks, that won't ever happened. They have now a new family. She finish her breakfast then put the used plate and glass on the sink. She leaves the dishes there planning on taking care of it later when she came back from school. She headed towards the living room and grabbed her bag. Then she went outside and strode.
After a minutes of walking she finally arrived at the school gate she notice Yanagi running towards her.
"Yan-chan, ohayo." She said to the brunette girl.
"Fuuko-chan, is it true?" Yanagi beamed at her happily.
"Na-ni?" Fuuko asked confused.
"The thing with Mikagami-sempai! Why you don't tell me about that? " Yanagi said with a teasing smile.
"uh-huh.. about that? You know, Yan-chan I'm not really sure about that too. Gomen." Fuuko said.
Fuuko notice that all the girls at the vicinity were all staring at her with their eyes like daggers. 'what's there problem' She wonders.
"Yan-chan, why are they looking at me like I have some serious kind of epilepsy? " Fuuko asked nervously.
"Fuuko-chan, You never really have any idea at all? " Yanagi asked. Fuuko nooded.
"Well, you see someone spotted you yesterday together with Mikagami-sempai" Yanagi said.
"They even say that you two are kinda Holding-Hands?" The brunette girl continued talking while exaggerating the word 'Holding-Hands'.
"Well, Th-at was nothing. You k-now" Fuuko said frantically. She swears that sweats are about to form on her forehead because of nervousness.
The brunette girl is not easily to be fooled especially since she knows Fuuko very well. She only gave Fuuko a 'tell-me-the-truth-and-i-dont-believe-you' look. Which somehow send shivers to the spine of Fuuko. 'Sure, Yanagi is sometimes real scary' she said to herself. Fuuko sighed.
"Okay. Okay, I'll tell you but you know, it not really that-" She was cut-off when she heard someone talk.
"You're almost late, Kirisawa" She knows the owner of the voice. But she dared not to look at him.
"Ohayo, Mikagami-sempai" She heard Yanagi greeted him.
"Ohayou, Sakoshita-san" He greeted back politely.
"Would you mind if I talk to Kirisiwa for a minute?" He said. That's when he gets the attention of the purple haired girl.
"Iie- go ahead. Ne, Fuuko-chan I'll be going now. See you later!" Yanagi gave her a sly smile before running away.
'How can Yanagi ditched me?!' she thought. Fuuko now looked at the man beside her.
"What now?" she asked.
"Nothing really" he replied.
Then silence. After a minute of silence Fuuko is the one who spoke.
"You know, your fangirls are not very friendly, look at them they are all giving me murderous glares" she said to him.
"So?" he said like he don't even care. Well, actually he doesn't really care at all.
"I'll swear any moment now they are ready to assassinate me. I don't want to die young" she said a matter of factly.
"Don't mind them. I'll walk you to your class." He said to her.
"I can manage!" She said while blushing. Not even looking at him.
"Fine, just don't blame me if someone abducts you or stabs you at the back." He replied.
Fuuko looked at him surprise then slowly her lips started to curve into smile. Mikagami, notice this but prepared a mental note not to smile back. 'She really looks cute' he thought.
"What?" he asked her brows twitching.
"You're actually a person with humor. So, I might accept the offer" she replied sheepishly.
Then together they walk leaving all the female population gaping at the school grounds. Some even have heart attacks. Kidding.
*2 weeks later*
It's been 2 weeks now since the 'I swear I'll do everything-' thingy between Fuuko and Tokiya. The two have been more comfortable to each other now. Mikagami is beginning to warm up a little. They are not the lovey-dovey couple. Err..should I even call them a couple? Anyways, that is because they always bicker at each other and now that they are kinda close they now throw insults on each other like Mikagami calling her 'monkey' at times. But even thought there are no romantic gestures or words or anything that flows on the romantic line, somehow they feel comfortable with each other. They don't even bother to ask about the feeling of each other they enjoy being like this and they are contented being like this at the moment.
"Fuuko-chan, since it's Friday and no school tomorrow let's have a little party at your place." The brunette girl suggested.
"I agree with Hime" Recca cheerfully said.
"Yeah right! Let's have a party today." Domon beamed. Of course, knowing Domon he just wanted to eat.
"Well, that was a pretty good idea. Let's head to my house later after school" Fuuko agreed.
"And please invite Mikagami-sempai too." Yanagi said.
"I'm not sure about that.. but I'll ask him later" Fuuko replied.
Fuuko came looking for Tokiya just as what Yanagi said to her to invite him over. 'Knowing Tokiya he must be on the library now' she wasted no time and dashed to the library. She found him on his favourite seat it was located at the back near the window.
"Hey!" She greeted.
Tokiya just merely looked at her. He was kinda busy reading his Physics textbook. Being a senior is not easily even though you are genius. He needed to strive real hard in order to get his sure scholarship at Tokyo University.
"I was wondering if you like to drop at my place later my gang is having a little party." She said to him.
"Why? To became your zoo-keeper?" he said not even bothering look at her.
"Fine. If you don't like then don't" Fuuko said aloud a little angry. She was about to turn and go away when he suddenly grabbed her wrist. 'She looks cute even if she was angry' he notice.
"I'll go with you" he said then smirk.
Fuuko gave him a sheepish smile and said "I'll meet you at the school gate after class." Then she strode away.
Tokiya stare on table where his still un-finish paper works are lying. 'Might as well finish this fast' he said before proceeding.
////////
Fuuko was now at the school gate. She was waiting of course for her not-so-boyfriend Tokiya to arrive. Yanagi together with Recca and Domon decided to head first to the supermarket to buy foods for their party later. So, that leaves her waiting alone for him. Not too long of waiting when Tokiya finally arrives.
They never talk but it seems like they have some silent understanding that made the both of them to take their stance to leave the school grounds. Neither of the both dared to spoke or to open up a conversation they just continued their walking. They never held hands, like I told you Tokiya is never a romantic type and Fuuko is not a sucker for romantic things or gestures. Though, Tokiya really cared for Fuuko he is not the type to show it. He still holds on his reputation for being the cold bishounen. That's when Tokiya thought of something that made his heartbeat fast. A question formed on his head, what if Fuuko didn't like him back? He is also thinking that maybe Fuuko is kind enough to let him be near her. And besides, he never really asked her what she feels. To summarize, this whole thing was still confusing.
They finally reach the Kirisawa residence. When they arrive Tokiya notice that the house is still close which means her monkey friends of course except for Yanagi is not yet to arrive. Fuuko invited her inside. This is the first time he was ever been in her house.
"Take a seat, Yanagi and the others will be here soon" she said to him.
He nodded and he settled himself on the couch comfortably.
"You have a nice house, Kirisawa. " he smirk.
"Thanks" Fuuko said proud.
"I was wondering.. Is it okay for your parent to have parties?" he asked her.
"Nah! They don't care. Beside I've been living here alone for a year now since my parents divorced." She said not even a change in her tone. It seem like she was only been asked by a simple question and she just answered it simply.
He was surprised of what she said. That made him only realized that there are still many things he didn't know about Fuuko.
"Hey! Don't give me that look" Fuuko retorted.
"Maybe you're thinking that this stuffs only happened on television" She pouted.
"No. I'm not" Tokiya replied.
"Besides. I've been also living alone since I was fifteen. But unlike you I don't have my parents anymore. " he said so honestly that made Fuuko stared at him like she has been deceived by her ears.
"My parents died on a car accident when I was seven. My sister is the one who took care of me but she suffered from a disease when I was fifteen and I lost her. So that leaves me alone. " Tokiya said a little melancholic.
"Go-men nasai..." Fuuko's only uttered word her head was down..
"Hey! Don't give me that look" he said. That made fuuko stare back at him again.
"Maybe you're thinking that this stuffs only happened on television" he said at her.
"Iie.." Fuuko answered back.
"Okay. Forget about that, I just remember something." Tokiya smirk.
"Nani?" She asked curiously.
"You never said 'you like me' back" Tokiya said out of nowhere. That made Fuuko a little confuse then after a minute or two when her brain started to process the words he just said earlier her face becomes suddenly red. She looked away avoiding his gaze and said..
"W-ell, I don't even re-member y-ou.. sa-sa-ying you like me ei-ther... " Fuuko stammered.
"I like you" Tokiya said suddenly that makes Fuuko froze in her spot and she swears shivers run down on her spine.
Before Fuuko could retort back Yanagi and the others arrives. Somehow he thank Kami-sama for the interruption she still out of idea on what to answer back to him.
Yanagi proceed to the kitchen to prepared the food, Fuuko followed her to helped. After a 15 minutes preparations the food is now ready at the table. They gather themselves at the dining area of course with Tokiya who seated besides Fuuko. Knowing Recca and Domon they fight over for the food that leaves Tokiya and Fuuko sweat-dropping good thing Yanagi was there to tame them. Then all of them proceed to eating. Somehow Tokiya feels relaxed together with them. They eat for about 45 minutes. After eating Tokiya, Fuuko and Yanagi proceed to the living room while Recca and Domon was cleaning the dishes at the kitchen, it was Yanagi who asked them to do the cleaning. Knowing Recca's dedication to her hime he actually did it without saying anything.
"I hope you like our company, Tokiya-sempai" Yanagi said to him.
"Of course, Sakoshita-san." He replied politely.
"Since your Fuuko's Eer.. boyfriend? Call me Yanagi." She said which made her earn a sharp glance at Fuuko which she simply replied by smiling.
"Of course, Yanagi-san" Tokiya obeyed.
"See, it's much better." Yanagi said.
Recca and Domon joined them somehow they manage to survived the washing of dishes. Let's just hope that they did it in a right way.
"I still can't believe that Mikagami the ice-prince is with us" Recca said aloud.
"I never have the slightest idea that Fuuko like him, I mean all the girls at school like Tokiya-sempai but Fuuko..." Yanagi followed.
"You're right Yanagi. And I thought she only likes Raiha" Domon said suddenly.
The mention of the name 'Raiha' makes Fuuko froze. Tokiya glance at her to see her reaction and somehow become curious with the said name. He somewhat feel jealous on the 'Raiha' knowing that Fuuko likes that guy. The room was filled with weird atmosphere Domon stopped talking realizing what he just said. Recca chuckled nervously while Yanagi dared not to speak and Tokiya had no idea on what was going on. Recca, Yanagi and Domon never expect that it would be Fuuko herself who will broke the ackward silence.
"Now that you mentioned Raiha I wonder what he is doing now." She said giving Yanagi a re-assuring smile. That made the brunette girl smile at her back.
'Thank kami-sama she finally moves on' Yanagi said to herself.
"Yeah! Well, since it's Friday I'm planning to have an overnight here!! Let's have movie marathons!" Recca declared happily.
"And how dare you to declare that without my consent?" Fuuko interrupted.
"anyway.. That maybe fun! But no scary movies. Okay!" Fuuko said.
"That's no fun. Let's watch scary movie!" Recca insisted.
"I like that too!" Domon agreed.
Did I mention that Fuuko is not a fan of scary movies? She must be fierce but she also has weaknesses like watching horror movies. She did not like the idea of horror because she easily gets scared and she always had nightmares when watching one. Also add to the fact that she was living alone on a large house with 4 rooms the other 3 where empty and another 3 bathrooms which send goosebumps on her when she thinks of scary stuffs. She look at Yanagi who give her a sly smile and mouthed.
"I'm in the mood of watching one" She said to Fuuko.
Fuuko just sighed loud.
"Fine!" She said giving up.
"How about you Tokiya-sempai" Yanagi asked.
"Anything is fine" Tokiya replied.
"You're also staying?!" Fuuko asked surprised.
"Am I not welcome?" He asked her.
"I was just surprised. REALLY surprise.." Fuuko said.
"Okay! Now it's settled! Will be watching Horror Movies!!" Recca and Domon cheered.
"I'm just going to buy snacks." Fuuko said.
"I'll go with you. " Tokiya said.
Tokiya and Fuuko went to the nearby convenient store to buy snacks.
"I guess these would do" Fuuko said pointing to the junk foods on her basket.
"any other you would like to buy?" Tokiya asked her.
"Yep! Ice cream!!!" She screams like a child. Tokiya can't help the smile forming on his lips.
"I want vanilla!!!" she said excitedly.
They pay for their goods then leave the shop to go back at her place. Fuuko was walking ahead of him while he was following her behind. He got the feeling to ask Fuuko something the need to call her arises.
"Fuuko." He called her. The purple haired girl looked back at him with questioning brows.
"why?" she asked.
"Who is Raiha?" Tokiya asked. His voice was calm. Fuuko looked at him for a moment then finally answered her question.
"Raiha is my ex-boyfriend. Hmm.. He broke up with me 6 months ago." She said not even hiding her embarrassment.
"He broke up with you?" Tokiya asked. Fuuko only nodded at him for agreement. 'Maybe that Raiha is an idiot for letting go of Fuuko.' He thought.
"He was a year ahead of you he's studying at Tokyo U. He believes long distance relationship never works so he called it a quit. " Fuuko said. Tokiya merely said a word.
"Hey! You're acting like a jealous boyfriend! You know!" Fuuko teased.
"Actually, I never forgot that I told you to be my girlfriend." His only reply. Then he slowly closed the gap between them and held Fuuko's right hand. He was kinda surprise because Fuuko never protested. So, he just savoured the moment. They started walking in silence just then Fuuko said suddenly that made Tokiya to stopped at his track.
"You know, I kinda like you now" Fuuko mumbled but it was loud enough for Tokiya to hear what she just said. His eyes widen because he was surprise or rather he was shocked. His lips curve into a smile but the smile suddenly faded and replaced by his furrowing eye-brows.
"Does that mean you don't like me before?" he said a little disappointed.
"Mou..That was because I thought you're just an arrogant snob good-looking-for-nothing bishie " she said aloud. They continue to walk their hands still clasped on each other.
"So, you actually find me good looking huh?" he teased her.
"Raiha is good-looking too!" she defended. That statement send him frown. Then ackward silence.
"But- I like you more than him now.. I guess that's how the explanation of it."She said furiously blushing. This made his heartbeat fast and joy overflowing his body. Though he was good at hiding he still acts firm. She stopped walking which send him to stop also. Then she stared deeply into his eyes.
"I like you!" She said to him still staring at his eyes.
"I don't like pranks Kirisawa" He said to her. Still doubting of what she just said.
"I should be the one to say that to you Mister!" she said pouting.
"Seriously?" he asked.
"Seriously." Was her replied.
They continue to walk under the dim of the moonlight. Their hands still closed with each other. Still, they can't believe that somehow the unpredictable 'I'll do everything, I swear' statement was a real powerful words that bought the two of them together. Seriously, this is only the beginning of their sweet escapade.
