Well, without further ado, please enjoy this new (and awfully late) chapter!
- NEKO IS SO SORRY.
Gakupo waltzed through the rest of his classes in a daze, hoping that no one would notice his lack of concentration and dreaminess. It was true that he wasn't interested in girls very much, and having a sudden infatuation over a girl was actually pretty strange for him.
Fortunately for him, he was always bemused, awkward, and daydreaming, so no one really noticed.
Unfortunately for him, some people were keeping him on a close watch.
One of the two was his dear friend Kaito, who found it quite amusing that Gakupo had finally found a potential first love.
The other was no one else but Gumi herself, who had no clue whatsoever that his problem was her. She had quickly (and wrongly) assumed that he had ADHD or some other kind of attention disorder, and left it at that.
"Hey, Gakupo!"
The purple-haired teen snapped out of his trance and back to attention, quickly turning around and tripping over the laces of his shoes before finding out who was calling him.
Gumi? He thought hopefully, looking up, eager to see her green hair and sarcastic smirk.
Instead, Rin Kagamine stood there grinning, looking down at him and brushing her bangs from her face.
Gakupo groaned. The two had always been rivals, but surprisingly, they had a close sibling-like relationship that often included fights, competition, and a lot of truth-telling.
"Do you have any idea what the homework for Yamamoto is? I forgot to write it down." Rin tossed her hair and shifted the books that were in her arms.
"I think it's page 23, numbers 1 through 56, but you'll have to check with someone else, I'm not exactly reliable…"
Gakupo laughed as Rin sent him her all-famous glare, saying, "You're no help at all!"
"Since when was I of any help?"
"Kamui Gakupo, you haven't changed a bit since elementary school…"
Gakupo smirked again, and was about to turn around when some realization dawned upon him.
"Rin?"
"Yes?"
"Are you friends with Gumi?"
"Of course! Me, Gumi, Miku, we're the three musketeers! Why?"
"Mmm, nothing. See you later."
Rin stared at the retreating figure of her friend and shook her head. Something was up.
xXx
Gumi was sitting in a sea of papers by the time she was done with her homework.
"Aannddd, I'm all done!" she smirked triumphantly as she snapped her math book closed. "All done! Nothing left! Bravo, me! Bravo!"
She flopped onto her bed and promptly smacked her head against the wall.
"Oww…" she winced and rubbed her head before looking at her computer screen, which was flashing orange with an instant message.
GAKUPO: hey! (:
Gumi rolled her eyes, crossing her legs and replying.
GUMI: hi?
GAKUPO: so, what's up? anything interesting happen?
GUMI: I've hit my head against the wall, if that's anything…. o.o
GAKUPO: … what a failure in life…
GUMI: shut up -.-
Gakupo grinned in ecstasy. Sure, the two had talked a lot in class, but they hadn't really known each other for very long (or at least reunited for very long), and he wanted to at least have a stable friendship with her…
Gumi was smiling from the other side. Gakupo really wasn't that bad. Maybe she shouldn't judge a book by its cover, after all.
But although he was funny and smart, it didn't mean that he wasn't an annoying jerk as well. Her eyebrow twitched as she thought up some quick comebacks.
GAKUPO: no really, you know I'm awesome.
GUMI: quite the contrary.
GAKUPO: :C
GUMI: stupid git TT
GAKUPO: yeah, I love you too.
Gumi shook her head as she replied, popping a stick of mint flavored gum into her mouth.
GUMI: retard….
GAKUPO: you're just jealous of my awesomeness
He really was frustrating.
Again from the other side, Gakupo blushed and laughed. He was being annoying on purpose, he knew that. Just annoying enough to get on her nerves a little, but not annoying enough to get her pissed off. Life was bliss.
At that precise moment, his phone rang with a sharp brrrinnngg of noise. He picked it up while continuing his everlasting teasing, secretly admiring himself for his "difficult" multitasking feat.
"Hello?" Gakupo laughed as Gumi sent him message after message of insults.
"Gakuporple! Hello! How was the first day of school for you?"
"Hey Kaito, fine, thanks, you?"
"Dude. You're starting to sound like my relatives when I try to prompt them into saying something. BORING. How boring can you get, really?"
"Umm, I'm kinda in the middle of something… Sorry…"
"Hm? Whacha doing? Homework? There wasn't that much, you shouldn't be worrying yourself over it."
"Nah, I'm talking to Gumi online."
"Ahah! Gumi, is it? I sense the love in the ai–"
"Shut up."
"Gakupo and Gumi, sitting in a tree, K I S S I –"
"Kaito!"
"When I was THIRTEEN, I had my first LOVE."
"Oh god, not that song."
"Oh yes, that song."
"Kaito…."
"And I was like…"
"KAITO…"
"BABY, BABY, BABY OOHHH, LIKE BABY…"
"You're just a pain in the ass, aren't you?"
"Hey, what are best friends for?"
"… you suck."
"As do you."
"Hey I have to go…"
"Gumi? Yeah, I understand."
"No not Gu – okay, maybe."
"Hah, see you later, purple."
"Bye… blue?"
Kaito hung up, feeling accomplished.
"Yup, I'm pretty sure he's in love."
Miku Hatsune, who was standing up on her tiptoes apprehensively, flopped onto the couch and cheered.
"What's next? We're going to try to get Gumi to like him back, right?" Miku grinned deviously.
Kaito laughed and walked over, sitting down and giving his girlfriend a chaste kiss on the forehead. She smiled shyly and blushed.
"Of course," he smirked.
