Andrew
I sucked up to Darien for days when I realized if it had not been for Risa I would have got away with it. So I rubbed in my awesomeness. And people I AM awesome. I mean I give advice, provide comfort food and my phone line is on 24/7 for any of my friends to call me in the middle of my shut-eye time and talk for hours (Lita ,one example, called me at 3 o'clock in the morning and asked advice on how to get this boy from her cooking class to notice her. I mean what was she doing awake at 3 o'clock in the morning? And doesn't she have Mina or Rei to talk to about that?). People would kill for an awesome best friend like me. I should get a bathtub filled of trillions and trillions on yen as a reward for my complete awesomeness. You could call it…The Awesome Best Friend Award. I can see myself now. On stage, holding The Awesome Best Friend Award, looking lovingly at the tub filled of money being showed off by Risa (wait how did Risa get in here? All the better!) and I say " I'd like to thank…"
"Andrew you are scaring me again…I mean you're actually quiet. Really quiet. But who's complaining?" Darien said dragging me out of my daydream. We were sitting in Juuban park eating lunch. Well.. barely. We were at a bench right at the edge of the park. A few steps away and there was the sidewalk and the street.
"Hey don't make me start– hey is that Risa?" I said pointing to a dance studio on the other side of the street.
"Yeah I think so." Darien said.
"Let's go say hi…" I said as I watch her dance , beautifully I might add, alone in the big mirrored room. In the weeks after the "incident" she and the girls had hit it off very well. She was a few days from becoming part of the "girls". She had told us everything about her. From how she had gotten her own place because her parents had thought it would be a good life lesson to how she was out of school, since she was home schooled (her family traveled a lot) and skipped two grades.
" Okay Lover Boy let's go" Darien said balling up his trash and shooting it perfectly into a trash can.
"Lover Boy?"
"Andrew you know I'm not stupid. Right?"
'Um… is that a trick question?' I think. But for my own safety I nod.
"Okay then, It is kind of obvious that you've fallen hard." He started mocking me."Um… Risa if you ever need someone to help you with your unpacking Let me know.., Risa if you need anyone to show you around call me okay…, Risa- "
"That is ENOUGH!" I shout embarrassed.
"You're like a puppy after a bone Drew, accept the cold hard fact of life you are over Rita and on to Risa."
He was right. No need to get mad like some people I know( ssppssstttt... Darien, I mean you).
"But she doesn't like me…" I say pitifully, pathetically. I wanted to slap myself.
"Who cannot like you Drew" Darien said. What the hell? What is going on here? When did Darien start acting nice. Like really really nice. When did he assume the Best Friend throne?
" Let's go say hi, Drew" He said and started walking toward the dance studio. I left the subject of Darien for the time being since I guess I will have Darien on my back forever and concentrated on Risa. We walked into the dance studio but Risa didn't hear us for two major factors, Fall for you by Second Hand Serenade burst rather loudly from the boom box and Risa was dancing with her eyes closed completely and utterly engrossed in what she was doing.
"She's really into it" Darien whispered.
"Yeah." I watched her dance around the room gracefully…beautifully…in time with the music. Twirling and her feet kick up making the skirt of her dark blue leotard flow around. I noticed that her waist- long ebony hair that was currently in a bun was coming loose as she twirled. I watched her face, filled with pleasure, as she made the difficult moves seem effortless.
"Don't forget to breathe"
I realized I wasn't breathing… I took a deep breath just as the song ended and Risa twirled in place. Slowly she stopped and slowly opened her eyes. Surprise showed on her face which then melted into happiness.
"Darien! Andrew!" She said happily bounding over and giving us each a kiss on the cheek. It wasn't love, just the way she was. We had learned that Risa was a very huggable person. She was hyper too and she usually gave everyone a hug on contact, once she made friends with them. In the past 2 days she had given me 6 hugs (not that i've counted…). She was also very lovable and for some inexplicable reason she and Darien had become good friends. GOOD FRIENDS! Darien and Good Friends in the same sentence! She was like Serena but good at school, wasn't clumsy, didn't have that 'Serena' air, didn't look like Serena and was friends with Darien. There was a humungous amount of things that made Risa and Serena so alike but so different at the same time.
"Hey Ris, we saw you in here and stopped to say hi. Why are you in here all alone?" Darien asked.
"Oh… it's after class hours and Yamada-sensei said I could practice in here for a while if I locked up for her."
"Oh cool. So what are you doing later?" I said casually. I was good. Darien smirked.
"Me and the girls are going to see Graves of the Fireflies! Wanna come?"
"Sure." I said even though I had seen it already with Lizzie before. But it was sad and sad meant Risa might need someone to comfort her. But sad or no sad it was time with Risa that would be badly wasted if I refused. " What about you Dar?"
"Sure no problem"
"Okay then me are meeting in the movie theater, in front of Azuba U. at 8. The show starts at 9 but Serena might be late."
"Might?" Darien snorted.
"Oh and Darien NO FIGHTHING!" Risa scolded. How could she get away with that?
"Fine. I will sincerely try." He joked feebly.
"Good…now did you already eat of do you want me to-"
A piercing scream interrupted her. We ran out. The first thing we saw was a tentacle rise from the treetops in the park.
"Go! Run!" Darien said. We all ran but then there were only two footsteps heard. Then only my own.
"Darien?" I asked and turned looking for him." Risa?"
"Crap." I said. I ran back but suddenly I fell to my knees as a sharp pain ripped through my chest. "Lunar…Orb…Transformation.." I gasped the words coming to me. Then I was blinded by a bright light.
Okay now PLEASE REVIEW!! Whatcha think? Any questions ask me please...
