Oh yeah. . .

This is the life.

It was dark but not that dark. My feet felt so warm with sizzling water. I smiled when I noticed some fire flies in circle the edges of the water. There bright yellow-green orbs trailing them which was of course the energy of their bioluminescence. Whoa, I was actually listening to science class. What a miracle! If only I had a piece of candy to congratulate myself. I should take off these bandages, I mean. Who would of ever followed me? The again, it's better to be safe than sorry. Hmm. Well, I'll take some off, not all. I untied the ribbon which slowly unravelled my fair skin. Now time to get in--

Rustle. Rustle. Rustle.

What the?

I tied by hair in a high ponytail and wrapped the towel around my waist. Peeping tom? Spy? A freak? Could be. I stood up and dragged my soggy feat near a bush. Some twigs started to break due to my actions as well as some of these stupid berries that fell. Maybe it was nobody at all. Could of been an animal or something. I am in a forest after all. I'm just paranoid. That must be it.

Rustle. Rustle.

Rustle.

A very persistent animal. Now two bushes behind me started to move. Whatever. I just going to leave the animal alone. My frown turned into a smile when I sighed in relief that there was no one watching me. If it wasn't an animal, I might be getting all wacko. I returned back to the water and splashed it on my face. HOT! Shit. Smart Karin. Smart.

Rustle.

Calm down.

Your taking your time in a reserved hot spring. Just enjoy the damn moment. Just fucking enjoy.

"Now. . ."

Rustle.

I swear I heard something just--

"Got him!"

Just as soon as I was calm about someone not spying on me. I was as good as wrong. In fact. My fellow peepers were Blondie and Jerk-ass. Jerk-ass was holding my arms tightly so I couldn't move. Is this some sort of a prank?! "Let me go. Let me go!" I tried to squirm out of his grip but he was too damn strong for a girl like me. I was about to bite him but Blondie just bonked my head. When I'm freed, they are so dead. D-E-A-D. Like roadkill.

Rub.

"I don't feel any breast like a girl. Even if he was a girl and flat, there would at least be a small lump or something."

My face went into a dark red hue. That. That. PERVERT! I am not flat! It's just hidden. Ugh! That's beside the point. This is sexual harassment! He can't touch me! If I scream right now, I might blow my cover as it is.

"I'll hold him down. You go and check now." Blondie then grabbed my arms more tightly then Jerk-ass. Why are so many males become so strong these days?! How ever happened to the weak-EEP! Jerk-ass was rubbing my chest. That fucker. I'm going to make sure I see to it that he has his funeral tomorrow! Jerk-ass smirked seeing me how I was; red all over. Embarrassed. Humliated. And hella' angry. I bit my lip and he started to unroll the bandages.

What I am going to do?

What the hell am I going to do?

. . .

OH HELL NO! NO. NO. NO. NO! I DON'T WANT TO DO IT!

'Do it or everything you worked for will go in vain. Not only that, you will be the laughing stock of the school. Or even worse. This will be published on the television with the headline, 'What are our children thinking now a day? Blame cocaine.'

My conscience? Or God? Wait. What the fuck? What does cocaine have to do with anything?

'Shut it, you cross-dresser. Cocaine is the fault of everything. As for you, your a special case. Anyway! Just do it!'

Your calling me a stupid girl?

'Damn straight. Now, it is time for me to leave. Now, do what you need to! Jin is almost finding you out.'

Geez. Never again I want to hear the voice inside my head. When I looked down, it was true. He was almost done. I mentally cried to myself. Well. Here goes everything. I can't believe I'm doing this. Let me die after this, please!

I let the blush stay on my face where I started to laugh. A cute laugh mix with a tint on insanity. Jerk-ass stopped unrolling the bandages and looked at me with his big brown orbs. I pulled my body down as much as I can to the point I was near his face. Our faces were about like - three inches apart? "Oh, Jin. I never noticed how hot you look so close up. Go on ahead, continue to strip me. You don't know how much I'm enjoying it. As a matter of fact, I don't mind for those hands to soon be around my whole body. If you know what I mean. How about it?"

Boo-hoo. Somebody shoot me. Now.

At least my plan is working. Jerk-ass fell on his bottom while his eyes were performing a seizure. They aren't still; he's embarassed! His face was the same color as a cherry and I felt like he was getting a nosebleed any second now. Please. He does not know how I feel. Pretty f--ing ashamed.

I turned my head and looked at Blondie. Aww, does he want attention too? Got it! I pulled my arms out of his hands since he was a bit confused with my sudden reaction to Jin. I backed up a bit and jumped on Blondie. He was underneath me while I was on top. "Don't worry. I didn't forget about you. Handsome." I said with a flirtatious voice. One of my legs was right in the middle of his so I brought it up. Which caused him to blush madly. I cupped his hands and placed them on my still flat chest and brought it down near my stomach, "I am more than ready for take of this towel if you want."

Okay. Now I'm even freaking myself out. Just to finish up with him then Jerk-ass and I'm as good as gone.

"W-what's going on with you? Y-you usually d-don't act like this. . ."

"I act in anyway I want."

With my other hand, I pick up his head and gave his forehead a gentle kiss. I then dropped his head on the ground and got up. Blondie; check. Jerk-ass? In progress of finishing up. When I looked at Jerk-ass, I felt as if he was scared of me. When I walked up to him, he backed up a bit. When he didn't realize, I made a dash and hugged his back. My hand went in his shirt. Poor Jerk-ass. He's trembling and sweating. Don't worry. I actually have control of myself. This is just revenge for all that you've done to me!

"Take it easy. I'm not going to do anything to you, Jin."

"Get away from me! Your. Your. INSANE!"

"Aren't we all? I mean. It's not like I'm going to your private spot. I blame you for all of this. It's your fault you had to be so hot and so rapeable-looking."

"What the hell?"

"Don't you love me? Or like me at all? Don't you want to make feel this way all the time? Don't you always want to feel pleasure?"

Taunting. It always works. Oh gosh! I am so enjoying every moment of this. I stoke out my tongue and playfully licked his ear. Hey, I am not going to lick his neck or kiss him there. Ew. Other girls can kiss this star. I don't want to be part of them. I bit his earlop gently. More like. I was playing with it. When I felt him started to tremble violently I stopped and grabbed my stuff. Leaving those two idiots shocked, disturbed, madly blushing, and confused.

"What just happened?"

"Bratty. . .I have no clue. I never felt like this. Was he taking drugs or something?"

"I don't know. But I feel like his hands still longer my face."

"Still linger? You were taunted more than I was. His hands were all over my body. I'm just glad he didn't go over the top. But you know what? This may sound strange, Bratty, but I'm actually turned on. Stripping would of been more than--"

"Jin, let's go. You emotions are getting to me too. Now I know how girls feel like when we kissed them. That butterfly shitty feeling."

"Guess so. What's even cooler, it proves he tomorrow since all of this happen."

"Jin. . ."

"Yeah?"

"I hope you get raped by one of your fan girls."

"Likewise."

Day 3

.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.

Okay. I understand what I did yesterday was sonot me. Now one can tell how scary I can be when wanting revenge but now I'm kinda scared. Not as in like, shivering fear of getting punched or something like that. Fear as in; just afraid to be with Jerk-ass. I cannot believe I asked him if he loved me! What's worse is that it's mandatory for all students to go on the hiking trip. Dammit! I don't wanna go! But here I am. Walking alone with Jerk-ass in the trail because we were suppose to gather some items. Everyone was different. Unlike others we got a hard list but lucky there was only four items we need to find: non-poisonous mushrooms. Two different types of flowers and a herb: the Corpse Flower and the Danebrog Poppy flower. As for the herb some purple coneflower. I think I remembered what we we're going to do with them. Mix and combine them all into one medicine. Third on the list was the bark of an oak tree. And lastly was some wet dew from the grass.

So far, me and Jerk-ass found the mushrooms the herbs and the flowers, the oak, now all we need is the dew. I thought it would be easy but everytime we pick the grass. The dew would slide right off. So our only option was, was to find much longer grass.

"God damn. Jin, did you fart or something?"

"No. It's the Corpse Flower. It reeks."

"Yeah, blame the flower. Get away from gassy food."

"Shut it."

Actually, I knew it was the flower's fault. But it felt so awkward with this deadly silence. I need for someone to talk. It was so suffocating. Then again, who would talk to me after I was partially seducing him. I mean. I would be devastated. Either way! Say something! Anything! I don't care what it is! Just say something! Please!

"Hey, Ran. . ."

Whoa. He actually called me by my name. Well. Fake guy name. It's a special moment for me. Leave me alone.

"Yeah?"

"Remember what happened yesterday? In the hot spring?"

"Um." Should I lie? I rather not bring up this topic.

"Remember that one question you asked me?"

Oh shit. The pleasure thing? Damn. Damn. Damn. Where is that dew? Ah ha ha ha. I want to die now. Let me die. I looked at Jerk-ass, his honey-brown eyes stared at me. Stared. And stared. And stared even longer. Hell's no my dude. I'm not going to reply to you. Sorry. But I'm in my own state of embarrassment. I blame it all on my conscience.

'Screw you. You choose to listen to me.'

F you.

'Temper, temper.'

"I don't know who to say it. But I'm going to confess before Bratty does. Just because he got to know you first doesn't mean I will let him win. Ran, listen to what I have to say!"

"O-okay?"

"I think I'm in love with you."

WHAT?! I knew this might of happened. But why now out of all days. No! No, no no! I'm not hearing this, I'm not hearing this. La, la, la, la, la. "Your kidding right? I don't remember anything. I just remembered going to the hot spring and drinking this glass bottle someone gave me." Yep. I'm lying. I want to avoid this. There is no possible way I can go into a relationship as a boy. Especially since I'm pretending to be a boy. And if news spread, the famous hottie, no, not in my point of view, his fan girls, is in love with a loser nobody. Me!

"I thank you for your confession. How can I put this? Um. It's not that I don't like you - I do! Just not in the way you put it. I mean. It's like a mix. I'm not rejecting you or anything. I just can't be sure of my feelings yet."

What the hell? I sound like a little girlie. I mean, a little one. Damn myself! Why did I add the not rejecting part? I should of just left it at that! Damn myself. Damn everything! Damn everyone! DAMN LIFE! Okay, calm down, Karin. Get a hold of yourself. This is not way you act and you know it. When I finally met his eyes. It looked so puppy-like. So cute. . .

No! Don't give in to puppy eyes!

No! No! No!

"It's strange how you don't remember. Which sort of meant this confession was meaningless. Either way. I'm satisfied and yet not satisfied at the same time."

He grabbed my arms. Pinning me on a tree. The lust. It's showing again. I'm - I'm scared. Jerk-ass. Get away from me. Get away! Micchi, Blondie, anytime you want to show up? This would be a really good time! My eyes were shut closed. I could feel the warm breath of his on my neck. He doesn't plan to leave any marks, is he. . .?

My whole body tingled with fright. He kissed me all over my neck and every now and then he would try to kiss my cheeks. Then back in the cycle. This is beyond sexual harassment! This is like. Like. A rape attempt or something! Hot, warm tears slid down my cheeks. When is he going to stop? "J-Jin. Q-quit it. Your scaring me."

"Shut it."

Excuse me. Your fucking abusing me in such a way and you tell to shut up? Even though I'm not gonna go anywhere since I'm so weak compared to him. I'll try. I started to squirm. Squirming as much as I can. He grabbed my arms more tightly. I knew it. It was hopeless - what the hell!

"Eep!"

"So cute when your about to have your pants off. What are you ashamed of?"

You raping me, dumb ass!

One hand was grabbing onto both of my arms. Still completely immobilizing me. With his spare hand, He was unbuckling my pants. Unzipping my zipper. Before I knew it, my eyes were becoming cloudy due to the crying. It was like waterfall. Not even tears will faze this lustful idiot. "No! Don't touch me! No one can touch me there! Fuck off!"

"Feisty."

"NO!"

"The screaming is coming from here!"

"Wait for me!"

Two saviors. Micchi and Blondie. Thank goodness. When I finally had the guys to see what Jin was doing to me, I opened my eyes and saw him gritting his teeth. "Damn it. Bratty and Michiru are coming."

And what! You bastard. . .
What would have ever happened is they didn't come?
What would of happened if I was still alone with Jerk-ass?
What would of happened?

By the time I finally thought I was saved, my first kiss was gone at the instant. He forced me to kiss him and there I saw Micchi and Blondie staring. Hello. In need of help here! Blondie just whispered something to Micchi and he left. At least I still have one savior.

My brunette friend smiled like he always did and pushed down on Jerk-ass shoulder. Pressure points. I see. Who cares? I jumped into his arms and let my tears drench his sweater without a care in the world. Why is there only one sane person in my life? Why?

.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.

"Shh. It's alright. It's alright. Everything is over."

"I. I was -hic- scared. What -hic- has gotten into -hic- him?"

"Hormones probably. It can actually affect guys worse."

"Really?"

"Yeah. That's why many girls always think that us guys are stupid."

The dirty blond locks was scattered through out my face and was stuck there from some of my dry, stick tears. Since this was the final day and I refused to stay in the same cabin as Jerk-ass. We were just making some snackes out of the fire we made. Every students was partnered with four people so me and Micchi did all the work. Who cares? I didn't want to see Blondie. How do I feel about seeing Jerk-ass? Ha ha! As if I want to see that rapist. I rather see a half-dead guy limping towards me with a metal stick and about to whack me with it. It was so great that everyone was caught of in their own business that they really haven't noticed me and Micchi.

Because I'm so small compared to these guys, Micchi wrapped me around in his arms while I sat right in front of him. If I could adopt him I would of done so sooner. I never want to be separated from my 'brother.' Never. "Hey." Both sets of eyes looked up and there was Blondie who joined across from us in the fire. He picked up a stick and stuck a marshmallow on it so it can melt near the fire. "Hi." I responded back. It's wasn't like I was going into a conversation with him. There is nothing we can talk about. When I mused over to see his leg, it looked perfectly healed.

How joyous.

"You know. Jin told me what happened. I came here to tell you he wasn't acting like himself as you can obviously see. Right now the side effects from the medicine he took should be wearing off."

"Medicine?" I asked.

"Yeah. He didn't mean to do anything on purpose. It was the drug itself. He had no control."

"So. He really wasn't doing anything bad out of his own will?"

"Yeah."

Oh. Oh, OK! He's forgiven. Now I'm putting his aside. So much for thinking it was hormones. I saw Jerk-ass open the cabin door and he slumped right beside the fire. Whoa. It was true. He looked so out of it. So dead. Loser.

I jumped right out of Micchi hold and hugged Blondie and Jerk-ass together. I slid my finger on the edge of their mouths and forced them to smile. Jerk-ass looked dead. But still smiling. Blondie? Blondie just bit me! "Ouch. Damn you."

"Don't. Touch. My. Face. You. Stupid. Idiot."

"Mean."

I never want to separate from these guys. I love them all.
Nothing will separate us.
Nothing.
We will always be friends.
And they will always my family.

But I regret to say I sense something horrible about to happen.

A normal P.O.V
Somewhere far away.
(XDDD Yeah, lame way to explain.)

.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.

"It's splendid living off her death. Plus, her having that ignorant child gave me an extra bonus on the money. It's good to live wealthy."

A chipper woman laughed while sensibly throwing money in the air. She was around her forty's and living alone as so can say. The curly brown locks covered most of her eyes but beside that it look like an animal crawled in her hair. She was wearing a luxurious dress pampering a white, fluffy-ball looking cat.

"Oh ho ho! I wonder how that sad child is doing know? Ah well, who cares? As long as I have the money I could care less."

Ring ring.

The lazy woman sighed and got off her four thousand dollar chair shipped from Europe. The woman grabbed the golden handle off the phone and totally faked a sweet voice, "Yes?"

"We have found Hanazono Karin. You are her Aunt? Are you not?"

"Yes I am."

"Then you are to ship all of the money to her since we tracked her. It was her family expense. Unless you can have her presently living with you for the next three years. That will raise up the money with the government's help after the Judge decided upon the matter. Her father was studying the extraordinary and it was brought to the governor. He just wants you to keep put with her."

"I will be getting more money, yes?"

"Correct."

The haggard lady smiled. The ultimate. Money. Money. And more money.

"Also. I would like to ask. But, even though the name suits a girl. What gender is Karin?"

This might get somewhere, somewhere to even more money. "Why, may I ask?"

"Even though it may be illegal in most states and or countries, but the money will raise eight times as more if Karin where to have a gay marriage. Especially since I heard your nephew is single and head of most companies."

"Hold on for one minute."

"Yes, madam."

The brown haired woman rushed downstairs. Around the basement where a line of computers and many professional users. She tapped on one her best employees on the shoulder, "Find where Hanazono Karin is. Give me some information regarding her."

Without hesitation, the worker did his job. Rather quickly too. He then clicked the print botton and the woman took it with her near the phone. "Attending school. Good. Living with a wealthy owner. Great. In a co-ed school as a boy? GOLD! Karin my dear, you did everything I could of ever dreamed of."

After taking her time, she once again faked the her voice, "Hello, I am here to report that in fact he was a boy."

"Odd name for the lad. Is he willing to marry your nephew? Or become his fiancee?"

"Most certainly."

"We just need to have Karin in with you and everything will go accordingly. The deadline is in a three weeks. I thank you for your time, madam."

"No, thank you."

She pressed the end button and skipped to her cabinets. Her pale lips formed an evil smile. Her intentions were beyond understanding. The middle-aged woman slipped on her pink glove and open one of the cabinets. Her wrinkly fingers held unto the photo with so much hints of amusement.

"Karin-chan. You had your little fun. Now it's time to return. Auntie would be most glad to see you again."

So there was an evil laugh. With dark intentions. And carried by a deadly sin; greed. In which she has become. Consumed with greed. And now it was time for her to take the happiness away from an innocent girl who had done no wrong.

In other words: Karin (Ran) Hanazono, will have a few more weeks with those belovedfriends who she calls 'family.'
