A/N: YOSH!! Alright! I've finally started on the second chapter. Its truly a miracle. Sorry for taking so long. My school system is touched in the head. I've been taking my final exams for the semester. In January!! But nonetheless I'm almost done. So close! Oh, by the way. I've been getting some complaints about my spelling. At first I was confused because I have spell check! But when I was rereading my story I think I discovered what the problem was. Are you complaining about "Makeover?" I couldn't figure how to write it! I was thinking, is it makeover or make-over? I still haven't decided……help me out!!!

Oh, and as a warning. There's going to be a spoiler at the beginning of the chapter. Of course I added something new at the end. No worries. The original dialogue is in there. I, just, uh, added a little something at the end to help my story…

Do You Ever Wonder?

Chapter 2: Sweet Dreams and a Shirtless Narumi

"Narumi-senpia." Called a familiar voice.

"Wha?!" exclaimed Narumi as he did a sharp 360 degree angle towards the voice. To his utter disbelief and shock he saw none other than Kosiba Kiri. There was a very unfamiliar aura around her. Her eyes sparkled in a celestial way as she clutched a small box to her chest. Narumi's eyes were bulging out if his sockets. Shaking rather violently, he gaped at her.

"Narumi-senpia." Kiri called again.

Twitching in utter confusion Narumi could only shake his head. "Na….N-Na…Naru…Narumi…s-se…SEMPAI?" stammered the teen. "D-did you really just call me that? Have you lost your mind?"

Swirling around to avoid all eye contact Narumi started to ramble to himself. "I must have imagined it. She would never call me senpai! I absolutely imagined it!"

"Ano….." Outside of Narumi's world a shifting of feet was heard.

"Here!" Kiri's arm shot forward, presenting the box she had been holding.

Narumi jolted at the sudden reaction. "Wh-what is it?"

Backing away Narumi shook his hands. "I don't want it! What are you trying to do? Take them back home with you! I don't need them!"

"Aishiteru!" Kiri confessed. Saying this she sprang forward, glomping a very bewildered Narumi.

"What?! Y-you lo-love me?! Wha-what are you talking about? R-really?!"

The current seen was rather imitating. Kiri was clinging to a very flustered Narumi. Of course it didn't help matter that, instead of pushing her away he caught her in his arms. Looking down hesitantly Narumi's breathe got caught in his throat. He saw beautiful hazel eyes staring at him. His eye's traveled from Kiri's wonderful eyes down to her lightly blushed cheeks. Chocolate eyes went up again to gaze at strawberry blond hair. Lastly, said chocolate orbs focused on thin peach lips. He blushed even harder –if it was possible, that is- then before.

"Hai. I love you….Narumi-senpai…." Subconsciously Kiri tilted her head.

This could NOT be happening. NO! This was Mussy-head. This was all just a funny little joke. None of this was real. Right? She would, and could NEVER love her! Just like Narumi could never love Kiri! He hated her! Right?

"Narumi-senpai?" asked Kiri.

A heart skipped a beat at her words. Oh to hell with it! "…I….I, lo-love you…." Confessed Narumi, his eyes began to close ever so slowly. "too…" Narumi himself began to tilt his head. Drawing nearer towards the teen clinging to him. "Kiri." Finishing his statement he slowly began to close the gap between their lips. Then-

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!!

"WHA?!" cried a startled teen. Said teen was so caught up in his ramble he fell of the bed with a loud 'thud'. Pulling checkered sheets off of him with such a velocity Narumi tripped over his feet. Only to wined up in the exact same spot he was in a moment ago. Narumi looked around his room franticly. Light shinned out of his two windows. There blue drapes tied back. On the left of the windows was a desk. Were Narumi kept all his sketches. The desk was currently clustered with unfinished papers and trash. After carefully scanning the desk Narumi rapidly turned his head to the right. A closet door was left wide open showing all his clothing. While next to the closet another door leading to the hall was also left ajar.

"Where? Wha?" he stammered. After a sudden realization Narumi sigh. Raking his right hand through his hair he took his left to cover his flushed face. It's the same dream I've been having recently… Taking another breathe Narumi stood up. Even so….it has NEVER gone that far….

"I love you…..Narumi-senpai…"

"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Shaking his head violently Narumi cursed aloud. "DAMN!!! THIS IS NOT HAPPENING!!" taking a breathe he continued, "I-it was a nightmare!! Yes. Just a horrible nightmare that refuses to leave me alone!" happy with his discovery, Narumi perked. A huge grin formed on his face. "Ha! Just a nightmare. I don't know what even got me so worried." He shrugged. "Like this could mean anything! Please!" then, finishing his statement, "Besides, I hate her!" Narumi shook his head again.

"Oh!" Narumi' s eyes lit up. Giving him a childish smile. "Today is the day we head to Honshu!" rushing toward his closet he grabbed his bags he packed the previous night. –for a genius such as himself knows to be prepared- "Ah. I wonder what time it is." Pulling his shirt above his head he threw it in the corner. Looking in his closet he came out with a pout. Resembling a puppy. "There's noting clean I can wear..." placing his hand on his brow he sigh. "I wonder if I have enough time to get something clean…..Kazuhiko said we had to be there by 11:30 to make it in time…." Glancing at the digital clock on his nightstand Narumi nearly screamed. (Again)

11:19

"WHAT!!!! ARG!! Why didn't anyone wake me?!"

O0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0oo0o0

Franticly looking around the room, Narumi's cell phone began ringing. "AH!! Kazuhiko is going to KILL me if I'm not there by the time we leave…" snatching his phone he pressed answer.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Naru-naru? Is that you?"

"Kei? Yeah its me! You're calling my cell!"

"Where are you?"

"I'm at my house!"

"Still? I guess I lost that bet."

"Yes, you lost the be- wait what?!"

"Occhi said you'd sleep in so he sent someone about twenty minutes ago to get you. I said you would be out of the house by then, but I guess I was wrong…."

"You guys….."

DING DONG

"What? Who's at the door?"

"Oh! Its probably your ride to the train station!"

"Well tell them I don't need the ride!"

"Naru-naru! They came all this way to pick you up!"

"Well I don't care!"

"Sorry Naru-naru. But they're your only ride. Gotta go!"

"Wait! KEI!! DON'T HANG UP ON-"

The phone went dead before Narumi could even finish his sentence. "me…."

DING DONG

Signing, he made his way out of his room toward the stairs.

DING DONG

"HOLD ON! I'M COMING!!'

DING DONG

DING DONG

Stomping on the last step Narumi finally reached the door. "I SAID I WAS COM-"

Opening the door with a huff Narumi almost yelped. "-ing?"

"Ah. Naru-naru. Took you a while."

"Mussy-head! What are you doing here?!!" Screamed the aggravated teen.

"We," Kiri pointed towards a cab holding Iori and Kanako, " came to get you…."

Narumi looked in the direction Kiri pointed. "Arg. Go away."

Kiri only sigh nonchalantly. "Sorry. Can't. I can't leave without you."

"Fine. But I might be a while. You might as well wait inside." Considered Narumi.

Taking a step back he opened his door wide enough to let her in. "But that," he said pointing a Iori, "can NOT come in."

"Okay." Stepping in Kiri took in her surroundings.

She looked at the beautifully furnished room before her. Marble flooring was every where. Turquoise silk drapes hung from the windows. The couches were obviously leather. Her eyes lingered to the platinum screen TV. Then to the top notch around sound speakers. "Wow." Inquired Kiri. Taking a seat on the leather sofa Kiri sigh. She sank right in to the overstuffed fabric.

"Yeah. Wow." Chocolate brown orbs avoided all contact with her hazel one.

Said hazel orbs shot up to stare at him. This action caused Narumi to jolt. "H-hey. What are you gawking at?"

"………."

"Well?!"

Kiri could only smirk at his absent mind. "Cold?" she stated bluntly.

"Wh-what? Why would you ask…" suddenly a realization washed over our, poor, poor Narumi. Looking down Narumi could only blush. Here was Kiri. In his house. And he was shirtless. Shirtless. Without shirt. Lacking of shirt. No shirt on. In front of KIRI. "Ah." Came his reply.

"So….are we going to leave like this… Or are you going to put some cloths on…."

"SHUT UP!!" screamed a very embarrassed Narumi. "THIS IS MY HOUSE!!"

"Okay. But you could at least put on a shirt before you come to the door…."

"I-I was in a hurry!!" Blushing furiously, Narumi ran as fast as he could up the stairs to his room. Before he entered his room he chanced a glance down stairs. "I-I'll b-be down in a minute! J-just wait here!!"

"Ah." Answered a very amused Kiri.

"Err." Slamming the door, Narumi nearly collapsed on the ground of embarrassment.

He could hear her laughter even in his room.

"I am NEVER, going to live this down." Sigh Narumi, as he looked for one decent shirt.

O0o0o0o0o00o0o0o00o0o0o0o0o00o0o0o0o0

Kiri laughed aloud at Narumi's display of nudity. It was hilarious. When things finally settled down Kiri wiped a tear from her hazel eyes. Looking around one more time Kiri yawned. With nothing to do she was left to wonder. Sigh. Maybe I hurt his feelings. I wonder if I should apologize. Remembering the embarrassed look on his face nearly set Kiri in another fit of laughter. Sure. She wasn't one to show emotion. But that didn't mean she didn't have any! And that scene was absolutely hilarious. There was yet again another sigh. Maybe laughing wasn't the best thing to do.

Finishing her thoughts, she heard a crash from upstairs. Turning her head upward she met chocolate orbs staring at her. Kiri saw that Narumi was holding all the luggage he would need for the next god knows how long. She also noted with a bit of humor that he was fully clothed. Narumi's face was considerably red as he came down the stairs. Apparently finding his shoes very interesting Narumi stood in the door frame. Waiting for Kiri to get up.

"W-well? Let's go! We're going to be late!"

Kiri stood up and walked towards the flustered teen. "Narumi-senpai…." Kiri whispered.

Narumi jolted. Nearly jumping out of his skin. Swirling around so fast Narumi stumbled over his bags. Falling flat on his face. Smooth. Both teens thought to themselves. Leaping back up Narumi looked at Kiri. "H-hai?" he mumbled. His face flushed even more. Looking strait in Kiri's hazel eyes for the first time he gulped. C-could she….

'I love you….Narumi-senpai!'

Kiri sigh. Rubbing the back of her head she closed her eyes. "Ah, gomenasia for earlier…."

Narumi' s jaw dropped. "Wh-wha?" he gapped.

Kiri sighed again. Then, looking at Narumi she yawned. "Ah, gomenasia for laughing at you….."

"Oh." Answered Narumi. So that's why she said my name. She wanted to get my attention. Sigh. Why am I so disappointed anyway? Narumi dropped his head hard. Grasping the air with half-clenched fist Narumi began to yell at himself in what to other would sound like another language. But to Narumi, it was just all his thoughts in one incoherent jumble of words.

"IcantbelieveImsostupidwhyamIdisappointedwe'resogoingtobelateKazuhikoisgoingtokillmeInevergottoeatbreakfeastIhatemydadstupidnicknameIhateitwhenhecallsmesho-chanwhydoIevenbotherIcantbelieveshesaidshewassorryImgoingcrazyandIstillcantevenstopramblingsheprobbablythinksIminsaneandwhyhaventweleftyethowlonghasthosetwobeenwaitingforusIcantbelievetheywouldwaitthislongohwell…" and with one final breathe, Narumi scoffed, "It'sokayMussy-headlet'sjustgo."

During Narumi's rant Kiri took the liberty of telling Iori to get his stuff as she watched him, trying to make some sense of what he was saying. All she really got was 'I hate it when he calls me Sho-chan' and 'It's okay Mussy-head, let's go.'

"Alright. Let's go Naru-naru." Kiri waited for the usual yelling and fits at being called 'Naru-naru'. When she heard nothing, she turned her head to see a confused Narumi. This is just not his morning. Thought Kiri. Walking up to his face she waved a hand in front of him. "Oi. Naru-naru? Come on! We need to get to the train." But her warnings were of no avail. He was way too out of it. Narumi looked like a lost puppy. So, taking his hand in her own, she dragged him to the car.

"Ah! Ki-chan!" cried Kanako. "W-what took you so long? Where is Narumi-senpai?"

Looking over Kiri's shoulder Kanako nearly feel over at the completely unnatural site before her. Narumi Shogo. Soul heir to Salon de Narumi. was currently attached to Kiri's left arm. Kiri. Narumi's one rival. Oh what a day. We're all just going to assume that hell froze over.

"Ki-chan! Since when have you and Narumi-senpai?? What's going on?"

"AAHH!!! What are you doing to my Kirity!! Demon! Monster! Fiend!!" angrily cried our favorite pansy.

Kiri rolled her eyes at him. Turning to Kanako she said, "Naru-naru is a little out of it. Don't think anything of it. If he was in his right mind he wouldn't be holding my hand."

"KIRITY! Me will save you from the demon!!" Iori was about to fling forward to attack the 'demon,' but before he could Kiri gave him a warning glare. "Eep!" cried Iori. Leaping in the cab Iori said, "N-never mind! Me's will just sit in the front!"

Forgetting about the pansy, Kiri turned to Narumi. "Oi? Are you okay?" she asked. A worried expression ate its way to the surface.

"ButIwannabeahairstyleistwhenIgrowup!" cried Narumi.

"Ah…." Was all Kiri could say. "Well, let's just go then."

Kanako was already in the front seat with Iori. When both teens finally were seated in their sets the driver took off. Glad to be on their way, Kanako turned to the back seat to talk to Kiri. She gasped again when she saw that Kiri had not managed to detach Narumi. In fact, he was clinging full force now. Both hands clasped her left arm possessively. To make matters worse, he was leaning on her. Kanako face flushed red at the scene. Iori began crying and cursing Narumi. Kiri only shook her head, looking down at Narumi. Narumi-get this- snuggled on Kiri's shoulder. Grasping her hands a little tighter, Narumi quickly feel asleep.

After falling asleep everyone fell into a small trance of silence. Nothing was said. The only thing that could be heard was their breathing. Kiri, bored, took her one free hand and ran it through Narumi's hair. Playing with his hair, Narumi released a small sigh. Leaning into her touch he snuggled even closer. As Kiri continued to mess with his hair her eyes started to get heavy. Ah. One nap couldn't hurt. Besides….Naru-naru is taking a nap… Subconsciously, Kiri continued to play with his hair.

Closing her eye's, Kiri drifted off to sleep…..

"Kiri."

Kiri turned to face a particular hot-tempered young man. Hearing her name she stared a bit confused. "Naru-naru?" questioned the teen.

"K-kiri, I, ah….." stammered the young man. Kiri scanned said young man in front of her. He was looking at his feet. Which were shifting back and forth uncontrollably. She lingered upward to his twirling finger. His fingers were twirling in a circle over and over. Resembling what a shy school girl would do if she were about to confess to her love.

Kiri waited for him to continue. "Hai?" she questioned.

"I, I lo-lo…"

"You what?"

"Aishiteru!"

"What?!"

Narumi blushed more before rubbing the back of his head. " I…said, I, lo-love you!" Narumi looked up upon saying this. "D-do you lo-love me t-too?"

"I-"

THUMP

"DAMN! HEY! WATCH WERE YOU'RE GOING!! Jackass!" screeched the driver.

Narumi's POV

I groaned. Figures! I always have to wake up just before it gets good! Yawning, I cuddle onto what I'm holding. Ahh. I feel absolutely wonderful! It's not everyday that a genius such as myself can get a nap. For a few minutes I just lie there. I take in a wonderful sent. What is that? Coconut? I grin to myself. It's a nice change to what I'm use to. Most girls always come up to me smelling like strawberry, oranges, roses and all that junk. If I have to smell one more 'strawberry flavored' girl I'm going to hurl. After inhaling a bit more of the sent I notice someone playing with my hair. Slender fingers run from my nape to my brow. I almost shudder with delight. Almost. Instead, I reward the tantalizing fingers with a small sigh. I am suddenly absorbed into an amazing feeling. The only sounds I hear besides my sighs is someone's soft breathing. Their breathing is almost hypnotic. Drawing me even closer to sleep then I already am. Wait. What am I doing? Where am I again? I shake my head to clear my conscious. Someone shifts next to me.

"Ah…..Naru-naru….." a feminine voice whispers. "Stop…..moving around……so much…." The voice slowly fades away. Most likely falling asleep.

I growl much to my dismay. Now I remember. It's just Mussy-head. Wait! What?! What was I doing with her! "What are you…" I start. But I stop as soon as I realize she is the one playing with my hair. This fight can wait….for now. "Whatever…..you say….Kiri…." is whisper back. Soon I fall into an even deeper sleep then I was in previously.

A/N: Alright! I finally got started on my second chappi! Sorry for taking so long. I'm a busy person. Aside from that. You know something funny? I wait forever for reviews and get none in two weeks. I go back and change my summary to KiriXNaru and in the next FIVE minutes I have a review. Oh the irony! Anyway I surprisingly satisfied with this chapter. It has A LOT of KiriXNaru. Maybe a bit too much. No worries. For all those weirdos who like OchiaiXKiri, you may get your wish. Personally I love Naru-naru over Occhi. But whatever floats your boat.
