Dara began to gather up her stuff as she heard the bell ring. She felt a little bit lonely after Link left the room, and began to worry a little. The principal was a scary man, and it is no fun to be in a room with him. Ryoma went up to Dara and gave her a little glare. Her eyes didn't even bother looked up at him, she didn't want to see his face. Ryoma was never the kind of person to understand situations, which is why he still cannot seem to forgive her. She could fell his gaze just stab into her back, oh how she hated this.
"Yes Ryoma?" She asked, hoping that First Link will come and just drag him away. At least someone understood her.
"Why were you talking to the new guy?" That question stabbed her a little. "It's not like you to go after some weird guy like him."
Dara knew where this was going, and she certainly did not want to go there. She picked up her small brown bag, and began to head out of the room. Ryoma's stabbing gaze only got worse.. Where was First Link when you needed him?
"You haven't forgotten that idiot, have you?" Ryoma barked.
Dara froze, she did not want things to go there. She had to forget him. She turned around and gave him a angry look. Tears were trying to escape from the corners of her eyes, but she held them back. Dara ran out of the room. Ryoma just stood there, slowly beginning to regret what he had brought up. First Link was going to kill him.
Link was trying to find his new room, no luck though. Everyone he tried to ask, just ignored or laughed at him. Link mumbled to himself as he tried to find his science room. Dara ran into him, but quickly got up and left the hallway. He got a small look of her, and quickly noticed it was Dara. He began to run after her, worried ness filling his entire body. He found Dara on the roof of the school, her shoulders were shaking while she stood there. Link went up behind her and put his hand on her shoulder. Dara quickly turned around, tears were making red streaks down her face.
"Everything ok…?" He asked, trying to mange a fake smile for her, but it wasn't working.
Dara cried harder as she slowly realized that someone was actually caring about her for once. She wrapped her arms around him tightly and buried her face into his chest. Link turned red instantly as she felt his shirt get wet with her salty tears. He, nervously, wrapped his arms around her waist and gave her a small embrace. He began to rub her back, hoping that is might comfort her just a little. And it did, her crying began to just become small little sobs. Dara felt her face become a little warm, feeling Link hold her like this… It was.. Great. For once, in a long time, she was feeling loved. Link was so warm even though it was freezing out. Her embrace got tighter on Link's waist, but he didn't mind. It did make him more nervous though.
"You're warm Link…" Dara mumbled.
His face became a dark crimson as she spoke. His heart began to beat faster as he felt her burry her face more into his chest. He wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say. It was silent after that, but only for a few seconds. The sound of the school bell echoed across the school campus. Which made Link deicide to speak up.
"Why were you crying Dara?" He was craving a answer from her. "What made you run off like that? Did someone do anything?"
Dara didn't want to speak, at least not about the reason why she was crying. "Please don't speak. Can't we just enjoy the silence.. For a little bit..?" Dara bit her lip, it wasn't that she didn't like when Link spoke. It's just, she was tried of noise and was hoping to change the subject. "I just want some silence.."
Link pulled her closer and softly whispered in her ear, "That's fine. We can do whatever you would like."
About an hour passed, and it was of just complete silence. The only noise were a few birds chirping and loud cars passing by. Dara fell asleep in Link's arms, while Link just sat there, thinking about a few random thoughts. They were now sitting. Link wondered how much trouble him and Dara were for ditching class to be together on the roof. But that thought and other small thoughts did not bother him. He was more worried about Dara. And why she was crying. Dara seemed really heartbroken, did she have a boyfriend and they broke up? Or got into a fight? Link wanted to ask, but it was obvious that he would not be getting these answers today. And probley not anytime soon. He sighed to himself as the realization depressed him. He wanted to know everything about Dara, he wanted to know what her past was like. If she was a orphan too. What her future plans were. What made her laugh and what made her cry. He watched her sleep and a smile appeared on his face. She looked so peaceful and cute when she slept. A harsh, freezing wind struck. Which caused shivers to crawl up Link's spine. Dara stirred in her sleep as she felt the wind smack her skin unpleasantly. Link held her tighter, hoping to keep her warm and asleep. But Dara's eyes slowly opened. She looked around her surroundings and looked up at Link. A dark red covered her face as she noticed that she was in his arms.
"Sorry.. Did I fall asleep?" She apologized, sitting up.
Link smiled at her. "Yeah, but it's alright. You're cute when you sleep." Dara turned even darker and stared at the concrete bottom. Link lifted up her chin. "Did you enjoy your sleep?"
Dara nodded and snuggled him. Link began to stroke her straight hair, humming some random tune in her ear. Dara felt safe being in his arms like this, it felt nice for once. And she never thought something like this could happen. At least, not with someone who she had just met. Link was still tempted to ask her why she was crying before, but he wanted her to tell him and not feel obligated to do so. Not to mention, it seemed like she would rather not speak of it. Dara was starting to get caught up in the moment, she couldn't help it. She wanted to do this so bad, so she did. Dara pressed her warm, lips up against Link's and gave him a small kiss. Link's body froze, he didn't know what to do. It was the first time he had ever been kissed, and on his first day at school! Dara could feel his body become stiff, so she pulled away from his lips.
"Sorry Link..." Dara mumbled. "I.. I wasn't thinking.."
She pushed herself away from him, not wanting to do this at all. Tears, again, were forming around the corner of her eyes and this time; she couldn't stop them or control them. She began to cry. Link became unfrozen as he watched her cry. He felt terrible for not kissing back, and he really wanted to, too! Link pulled her over to his body and kissed her. Dara began to sob a little again, but she was calming down. She kissed him back. Link held her tighter and closer as their lips touched. Their hearts were pounding against their chest, no thoughts were going through their minds. The world seemed to stand still, and the all the noise from the birds chirping and the cars driving past seemed to die down. What was only for a couple minutes seemed like forever, ended as their lips parted from each other to get some air. Their faces were extremely red, probley as dark as the color red could get. They both were completely speechless. No words could even explain how great of a moment that was for them. But the silence was still precious to them, and they were enjoying each others company.
All of a sudden, the door to the roof slammed open, and Perverted Link ran over to Dara.
"GUNG! What's going on up here?! You weren't in science today!" Perverted Link cried worried.
Dara looked pissed off and a little bit upset. The moment was destoryed by someone who she could truely care less about. And for a stupid reason.
"What do you want?" She hissed, she was really pissed off.
"You can't get into trouble!" He literally began to cry. "You know why! Gung!! The principal is evil!"
Link became extremely worried. He wasn't thinking of what the principal had told him. But now it was coming across his mind, which made him just a little scared. He didn't want anything bad to happen to Dara, and how he made the consequences sound, it sounded like something worse then just getting expelled could happen.
"He won't know about it, right?" Link didn't mean to butt into the conversation, but he was worried and couldn't help it.
Perverted Link gave Link a death glare. He didn't like the fact that Dara was alone on the roof for an hour with a guy who he could not approve of. Link stepped back a little bit, he didn't think that someone who seemed to friendly to the point where it was annoying could actually be a real bastard.
"I don't know, but if she does, it will be your fault and I have my ways of getting revenge."
Dara slapped Perverted Link so hard that it left a stinging dark red mark on his face. "Stop it Perverted Link. Link didn't do anything!" She yelled. "Leave me alone! I won't get in trouble, this is just the first time so he can't do anything!"
What could the principal do? Was he really that horrible? Dara grabbed Link's hand and pulled him away from the scene. They headed down the stairs and into the half way empty halls. She sighed deeply as she entered the halls. Everything seemed unreal, everything from earlier seemed like a blur. Did Dara forget the kiss? Oh no, she didn't. She could never forget her first kiss, but it seemed sort of hard to remember.. Just picturing it was blurry. Dara still could not believe that she kissed the new kid. Link stood behind her as she walked. He didn't know if he was to follow or not, but he felt the need to. Plus, he had no idea where his next class was anyway. And they both might have the same schedule. Link could remember everything that had happened on the roof and could not believe it. He never thought that he would of kissed her. There was only one question.
What happens from here?
