Hi, sorry for the late update. So here's chapter 2, and thank you to Jonaleepuff for being my awesome beta reader/editor. Hopefully this is an improvement from chapter 1.

Chapter 2- School life

Monday- 9/23- Early morning

Akihiko woke up and headed towards the dining room. The dining room had bright, crystal chandeliers hanging on the ceiling. There was a long dark table in the middle and was surrounded by red velvet seats.

Once Akihiko entered the dining room, he spotted his little sister, Miki waiting anxiously. Miki was his 8-year-old sister that was about half his height. She had short silver hair that was always held up in two pigtails and a light purple dress that fell to her knees.

"Good morning." Akihiko said tiredly.

"Haha, good morning Aki-nii~" Miki quickly tackled-hugged him. "Nako-chan is making breakfast for us now." (Nako-chan was the nickname she gave to Minako.)

"Oh, okay." Akihiko replied and both siblings sat down, waiting for their meal. A couple minutes later, Minako came out holding out two plates of scrambled eggs with red and green peppers with sliced sausages.

"Here you go." Minako said placing the plates in front of them. Akihiko and Miki said a quick thank you before eating their food. While they were eating, Minako left to get ready for school. Before she went back to the dining room, she heard Miki talking.

"Aki-nii, mommy told me you're getting married."

"Yeah, I have to, against my will…" Akihiko mumbled. "So what about it?"

"I wanna be the maid of honor!" Miki shouted. "Please Aki-nii, please, please, please~"

Akihiko turned to his pint sized sister and smiled. "Of course you can." With that, Miki had a huge smile on her face. "Yay! Oh, is Nako-chan going too?" Once Minako heard that, she felt tears forming in her eyes.

Keep it together Minako… Minako repeated that over and over again. Once she got back her composure, she entered the dining room.

"I guess if she wants to…! Oh Minako!" Akihiko turned his head to his maid. "Heading out now?"

"Yeah, speaking of which, you should head to school too." Minako said giving a light smile. When she was about to leave, Miki started to tug in her skirt. "Nako-chan, when you come back, can you make me a strawberry cake? Please~"

"Sure." Minako said looking at her.

"Oh! And you need to make some for Kumi-chan too~" Miki said in her cheery voice. Kumi-chan was Miki's bunny doll that she had received on her last birthday. Ever since, she has been attached to it and brings it everywhere. You can say that it was an upgrade from an imaginary friend.

"I'll make enough for the both of you." Minako giggled, she found Miki to be the most adorable person ever. "Well I'm off."

"Kay bye, bye~" Miki shouted waving her hand.

Now let me explain everything about Akihiko and Minako's school life. Minako goes to Gekkoukan High School, while Akihiko goes to an all-boys private high school. Minako was apart of the student council, tennis club, and the cooking club and many guys liked her, but everytime they would ask her out, she'd declined. Akihiko on the other hand was the captain of the boxing team and was pretty popular for his winning streak. Now let's go back to the story, shall we?

Private School- Morning

Akihiko walked through the metal gates and kept thinking of yesterday. He was so deep in thought that he didn't realized his friend; Shinjiro was calling him, until he was whacked in the head.

"Ow… Oh hey Shinji." Akihiko said while rubbing the back of his head. Shinjiro and Akihiko were friends since they were 4. Of course, Shinjiro was also from a rich family. His family company had to do with cooking and culinary arts. They only met because their fathers decided to work together.

"Jezz Aki, I called your name 5 times now." Shinjiro grumbled.

"Oh, sorry." Akihiko apologized. "I have a lot on my mind right now…"

"Well obviously." Shinjiro mumbled. "-sigh- What happened now?"

-After Akihiko explained what transpired yesterday-

"Damn." That was all Shinjiro could say in response. "Yeah, I know..." Akihiko let out a sigh.

"So, how's Minako holding up when you told her?"

"Huh? What do you mean?" Akihiko gave a confused look to his friend.

"Forget." Shinjiro said and the bell rang. "Let's go."

Gekkoukan-After School

All day, Minako didn't pay attention to her schoolwork. She could only think about Akihiko, the wedding, and according to Minako, 'the lucky bitch' that's going to marry him. Minako let out a tired sigh and grabbed her bag.

"Hey Minako, are you heading to the cooking club?"

Her friend Yukari said. Minako and Yukari had known each other since junior high school as well as Junpei. But I'll explain his in another chapter. Yukari was also popular with the guys and was apart of the archery club.

"Yeah, are you going too?" Minako asked looking at her brunette friend.

"Of course! Come on, Fuuka is waiting for us." Yukari said happily.

Minako, Yukari and Fuuka are the only members in the cooking club. Yukari and Minako met Fuuka in freshman year. Both of them were finished with their clubs when they saw Fuuka being bullied by 3 girls. Yukari told them to 'shove it' and Minako threatened to beat them all with her tennis racquet. Ever since then, they all became friends.

Cooking Club-After School

"So Fuuka, Minako, what are we going to make?" Yukari asked.

Minako remembered what Miki asked and said, "I need to make a strawberry cake."

"Is it for Miki?" Fuuka inquired.

Minako only told Fuuka and Yukari about her real job because she felt like she was obliged to because she kept turning down their offers of hanging out on the weekends.

"Yeah…" Minako sighed sadly. "What's wrong Minako-chan? You seem so gloomy today…" Fukka asked with a worried tone.

"Fuuka's right, you also looked like you had a lot on your mind today." Yukari added. Minako turned to them and answered, "It's nothing Fuu-chan, Yuka-chan."

"Come on spill. I've known you for 5 years now, you can't give me that lie." Yukari demanded.

Minako gave a light chuckle. "Well that's true. Alright."

-After Minako explained everything-

"Oh, Minako…" Fuuka and Yukari said sympathetically.

"Yeah. I can't do anything now." Minako sighed. "Well, let's go make the cake."

Minako got up from her seat and started to read the recipe, while Yukari and Fuuka were still trying to take in all of the information in.

"Come on." Minako said turning to them and let out a frustrated sigh. "Maybe I shouldn't have told you."

Yukari and Fuuka both got up out of their seats and Fuuka had an idea.

"Minako-chan, why don't you tell him how you feel about him." Minako only gave her a glare.

"Why? It won't make any difference." Minako said averting her gaze. She felt like she was gonna cry.

"Well at least he will know and you can get it out of your system. Then you can relieve yourself from this burden. " Yukari said agreeing with Fuuka.

"Jezz, when did you two start giving love advice?" Minako mumbled.

After they made the cake, all of them went their separate ways. Minako looked down at the cake, Well time to get this to Miki. At least someone will be happy…

Whew, this was longest chapter so far…I hope you guys and girls liked it.
