"DAMMIT! I CAN'T STAND THIS CROWD ANYMORE!" Noriko frowned at the crowd of
girls and boys who were hounding Rukawa.
Hanasen shrugged her shoulders and took a seat and watched her friend throwing a fit.
"Why don't you squeeze yourself there again?"
"I ALREADY DID THAT, BUT THAT STUPID BITCH JUMPED ON ME! IT'S HER AGAIN!"
"Why don't you try again, maybe she got his picture already." Hanasen lazily suggested.
Noriko stomped and squeezed herself in the crowd for the seventh time in a row. Hanasen shook her head and smiled at her friend's determination.
Oh, I just hope I don't see him. I hope....
"NYAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"
Hanasen almost fell off her seat when she heard the unmistakable laughter.
There he was....standing at the exit door and surveying the crowd but no one seemed to pay attention to him. The Sakuragi Gundan were beside him.
"The real star of the court is HERE!" They yelled.
No one even looked.
Hanasen stood up and stared at him but she was not sure if he noticed for she was standing beside a tree.
You look so beautiful.
He was still laughing while he and his buddies were doing a victory dance. They were not really fazed with the crowd who were still harassing Rukawa.
Just as she was about to make a step forward.....Noriko glomped her.
"WAAAAAAAAAIIIII!!! I GOT A PICTURE!!!! I EVEN GOT ONE BESIDE HIM!!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! URESHII!!!!"
"Noriko..."
"Nani?"
She pointed.
Noriko looked.
"He's there! Let's go."
"No!"
"What do you mean, No? Come on!" Noriko pulled her.
"But...."
Before she knew it, she was being pulled by the arm by a determined Noriko.
"SAKURAGI-SEMPAI!!!!!" Noriko called out.
Sakuragi looked at Noriko.
"My friend....I mean we would like to have a picture with you, okay?"
"AHA!!! YOU'RE A FAN!!!" Noma declared.
"Yah." Noriko nodded and nudged Hanasen who could not look straight at him.
"SURE!!!"
"Yosh! Okay, girl, you stand right there beside him now."
"But...." Hanasen was blushing badly.
Just as they were about to pose together.....
"SAKURAGI-KUN?"
"WAAHH!!!" Sakuragi immediately turned around to greet Akagi's sister, Haruko.
"Onii-chan, said we're all going to have a victory party at our house tomorrow night. Be there!" She winked.
"I WOULD BE SO HONORED, HARUKO-CHAN, NYAHAHAHAHAAH!!!" He scratched his head and blushed.
"And you guys better be there too." She smiled at the Sakuragi Gundan.
The casual invitation had become more enthusiastic and engaging that they totally forgot about Hanasen and Noriko.
"Ne, Hana-chan....?"
"It's okay. I told you I didn't want to."
"You sure?"
"You got a picture with Rukawa-san, I think that's okay."
"That's not it." Noriko looked away.
"Gomen ne...."
"Don't be."
But just as they were walking further away, they heard someone call from behind.
"ANOU......MATTE KURE YO!!!"
The two girls turned around.
"Sumimasen....." Sakuragi bowed.
Noriko shot up a mild glare at him. Hanasen was wide-eyed. He had to follow us?
"Anou....about the picture....I'm so sorry, very sorry I was preoccupied....I did not forget."
"It's okay." Noriko shrugged.
"I think both of you should sit together instead."
"I'm so sorry but we think you're busy....we don't mean to bother." Hanasen looked down.
"Daijobu....I should be the one apologizing not you." Sakuragi smiled and scratched his head.
They looked at the camera.
Hanasen shrugged her shoulders and took a seat and watched her friend throwing a fit.
"Why don't you squeeze yourself there again?"
