Chapter 05: You Can't See Me
After school, Mimi went to her home straightly, as she found her dad talking on the phone. Who could it be? He hung the phone and turned to Mimi. "HI dad." She greeted. "Hello sweetie. You have a phone call." Her dad said. "Who?" she asked.
"Who's Ronnie?" her dad asked, Mimi let out a gulp. "An absent classmate." Mimi lied. Her dad was satisfied. Mimi rushed to her room. Oh no, what will I do? Ron can't stop bothering me. I don't even know him! She cried all night.
Next morning. On her way to school she was still crying, entering the classroom, she didn't noticed that Matt was there. Mimi sat on her chair, still in tears. Matt cocked a brow. "Why are you crying?" Matt asked, transferring as he knelt down to her. She wiped her puffy red eyes' tears. "Yamato, remember Ronald aka RRR?" she finally said. "The sacristan who has a crush on you?" Matt said, with tint of jealousy. She nodded. "He called on our house, he knows my number, Yamato!" she said and started to cry again. "I didn't know how he know my phone number, maybe it's because of Tahome's phone book! I even wrote my address and cellphone number! But my dad's using my cellphone! What will I do!" she exclaimed in hysteria. "I don't even want to talk or see him! My dad still forbids me to have a boyfriend, Yamato! You know that, right?" she said, Matt nodded.
"What do you want me to do with it?" he asked. "Well, I was thinking, since you're in the school varsity, you can steal my phone number, address and my cell number from him." Mimi said, Matt pushed his tongue out.
"No way." "Yamato! Half of the school already knows where I live! Please! Altar servers and varsity has their meetings on Saturdays! Please Matt!" Mimi pleaded. Matt sighed. "Sure," he said. "Oh thank you a million times!" she said as she hugged him tightly. "On one condition," Matt said, Mimi cringed. "You will pretend to be my girlfriend for the whole year, except if you really want me to be yout boyfriend, don't pretend." Said Matt naughtily. Mimi pushed him. "You know I'm forbidden!" Mimi said. "Well, I guess Ron has to call you everyday and your dad saying, "is he your boyfriend'?" Matt said. Mimi sighed. "But promise that my parents will never find out that we're official." Mimi said. "Fine." Matt said. "We start today." He said. Mimi's eyes widened. "No way! No way Yamato!" she yelled. "Well, Ron or me?" Matt asked, Mimi didn't response for seconds. "You of course." She said, Matt smiled.
"That settles then now, when we're in public, you must not start an MU-" he was cut off by Mimi. "No! Deal is off! We remain as enemies!" Mimi said and that was it.
Comp. Stud-
Mimi and Maui were laughing hard, unnoticed by the teacher. "That's so funny…." Mimi said holding her stomach. Matt arched a brow. Mimi can't stop laughing, so Matt kept squeezing her kneecap to make her nerves realize she's being tickled…
"Mimi shut up or I'll tell your parents You-Know-What." He threatened, finally Mimi stopped. "Fine." She said as she copied her notes. It was a long one though she managed to finish it with a clean, perfect penmanship in cursive. Matt looked at her notebook, no erasures.
"Matt you aren't copying your notes." Mimi said. "I know, I'm waiting for you to finish so you can start recopying for me." Matt said. Mimi frowned. "Go hire your own secretary." Mimi said. "But you're the only person in this class who has a good penmanship, and besides, sexy too." Matt said naughtily as he reached her smooth, thin hands. "So?" "So, I was thinking, can you copy notes for me?" Matt favored. "And my prize is?" Mimi asked. "A kiss from me?" Matt offered. "No thank You!" she said with a freaky tone. "What about a date at the mall?" Matt offered, Mimi smiled. "At the mall! Gosh I love them! Sure why not! Gimme your notebook! And before that, you will buy everything I want! Kay Matt!" she said enthusiastically as she grabbed his notebook and recopied it fast. Fast but clean. Matt remained looking at her. Ditz.
2 Weeks later…
"Matt, why did you marked that wrong?" Mimi blew up, pointing at her test paper. "Your hemophobia's phobia spells as hemophobio. Jeez, I thought you're so good at English." Matt said, Mimi grunted. "It's a, not o. Your eyes are too blurry. Now, correct this one!" Mimi said, handing him her red pen, Matt gunted and marked a check on it. "You know, I wish I wasn't your seatmate." Mimi said. Matt looked away. 'I wish I wasn't you seatmate' hmph! One day you will regret what you said, you'll make the biggest mistake on God's cream earth! "Fine, if that's what you wanted, exchange seats. To SORA." Matt said coldly. Mimi cringed. Fine! "okay then, but I wish Sora will be okay being your seatmate." Mimi said. Jeez, when will he stop saying Sora? It's not I forbid it, but…it gets in bother to us, to me. It's not that I'm jealous. "Who is your crush anyway?" Mimi asked. Matt has a devilish smile on his face. "The girl whose name means 'sky'." Matt said.
Mimi rolled her eyes. "Sora." She said. Sora, it's so obvious, always her. Mimi turned her back to face her the students at the back. "Hey Erika, would you mind changing our positions?" Mimi favored, Matt was listening, Mimi looked at him, he glared. "I'm not exchanging seats, Yamato. We're talking about our line." Mimi said nervously. Matt grunted. Mimi cocked a brow. Is he jealous? Or it's just like that? Mimi shook her head. Matt looked at her. If I could be that guy in her heart, I don't need anything else than her. He looked down and felt so hopeless. I just don't like her out, but also her in. He looked at her again, how he loves her. You can't see me on how concerned and how I care about you. A tear formed from his eyes. Mimi quickly looked at him.
Oh, so he also has a soft heart. She released her hanky and wiped the tear. Matt looked at her and flushed. Mimi giggled. "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone!" Mimi said happily. Maybe, I could learn how to like him. Matt smiled. "Hey Mimi, you got white hair on top of you." Matt said, Mimi cringed. "Where! Remove it!" she said as she pointed at her head. Matt chuckled. He lifted her chin. "Just kidding. My princess is perfect." He said sweetly, Mimi almost fell. 'my princess is perfect'. No…he's just kidding around.
"Nice try, Yamato." Mimi said as she laughed nervously. Matt cocked a brow. "But you are perfect with your imperfections." Matt said, with his sweet, but cool tone. Mimi smiled. "I'm always perfect." Mimi said, tagging along with him. "Yeah, you are. A guy who doesn't drool for you is a fucker." Matt said. Mimi sighed for his bad mouthing. Mimi somehow felt uncomfortable. He's being sweet, it's so…weird.
A/N: Sorry this is the shortest chapter I ever wrote in this fic. I've been trying to catch up, our retreat is over and I have to keep every moment we had in my head. Anyway, I promise you all the later chapter will be kilig moments. And did I say Mimi never liked Matt? Well, she will get jealous! Ha…I don't know if this will end as a Michi or Sorato. I observed that evr since my crush changed seats with the girl I call, Sora, he treats her like he treats me, and I'm really jealous, but there are some parts that proves I'm (Mimi) worthier to him (Yamato) than her (Sora).
