Yay! Chappie five! Things are moving along quite quickly, no? This is the chappie where the real OkiSei picks up, so smile and be happy. Also, I tried to make it obvious I have nothing against Saitou but I'm not sure if it worked, so here's my statement: I have nothing against Saitou-kun! I wuvs him, actually. If it seems like I'm bashing him in any way keep in mind I did not mean too and it's probably because I need him to be the underdog. Thank you. *bows*

Sei picked up another mouthful of rice and shoved it into her mouth. She chewed it slowly. This whole "meeting at dinner" was stupid and pointless. She didn't want to be here. Saitou was about the worst company possible. All he did was sit, eat, and stare. Even her father, Mr. I-Can-Talk-To-Any-One, was sitting awkwardly.

Saitou, unlike Sei and Gennan, was perfectly comfortable. He was taking quite a liking to Sei, actually. Her spirit attracted him. Other girls would put on their best faces and say annoying things that they thought were attractive while Sei made it blatantly obvious she was not happy to be here. He smiled, slightly.

OoOoO

Okita tapped his foot, impatiently. Saitou and he had a duty tonight and it was getting dreadfully late. If he waited much longer, the plan would be in ruins. He couldn't wait much longer. They had to get going at that very moment. Okita made one of his snap decisions. He found Kondou, asked for Saitou's location, and went to fetch him.

It wouldn't take long to find the house as it was apparently a large one. He spotted it fairly quickly and he made his entrance without permission. He was about to enter another room when he overheard conversation.

"Chichi-ue, this really is pointless. You know how I feel about all this and you know I won't accept it. You might as well give in. You're wasting my time as well as his."

The voice was familiar to Okita, and he knew it immediately. It was Sei. What business would Saitou have with Sei?

"Sei! I told you to mind your manners." Gennan snapped back.

Okita knocked on the door, while he loved eavesdropping, time was wasting.

Amamiya opened the door for him and let Okita in. Okita took a step forward. "Hello again," he said to Sei.

Sei looked up from her meal to see Okita standing at the doorway to the dining room, smiling. "Y-you..." she said, confused and surprised.

Saitou looked towards Sei, curious as to how Okita and Sei would know each other. "Hmm? You know him?"

"N-no. It's nothing," Sei lied quickly, looking back to her meal.

"Ah." Saitou stood up and walk towards Okita. "I do believe I'm late. But let me introduce you. Okita-san, this is my betrothed, Tominiga Sei-san. Sei-san, this is my..." Saitou chose his words carefully, "friend, Okita Souji-san."

Okita felt a pang in his heart upon the word 'betrothed'. "Betrothed…?" he sounded more disappointed then he had meant too and Saitou noticed it as soon as the word left his mouth.

"Okita-san, you do not approve?" Saitou asked, meaning to stir his feelings.

"N-no! I mean, yes, its fine… um… we should go," Okita left the room as soon as possible. He gripped his chest. Why was it tight? What was this? Why wasn't he happy for Saitou, instead of regretful? His emotions stirred and snapped inside of him. For years, his world had been bland and lost to him. He hadn't seen a point in life except for to get revenge but now, somehow, Sei had given him a reason to live. She's started to make his world spin again. But how and why had she done that? He'd known her for only three days. What was happening to him?

Was it in any way an insult to Saitou-kun? I think it wasn't but I can't be certain… I do hope you liked it. I would love a review! *hints* No, really, I would! Please? How bout this, for every review I get that's another chapter I'll upload next week. Okay? I'll update anyway if I don't get any, but you could get more if you do review… *tempts* Thanks for reading! And have a merry Christmas! ^-^
