Fangirls and Feelings

Hey readers… if you guys are out there, I hope you could review this chapter of mine… it's been a year since I haven't updated any of my stories in Fanfiction, but I hope you guys could at least comment. ;)

Anyways, I feel this might be a shorter chapter, but I hope you'd review! :D

"Oi Ueki! Are you done yet? You better hurry up!" Mori Ai shouted from outside the tracking field, "Hurry up, will you? You need to get home ASAP!"

It's been three months since the day that Ueki saw Mori's diary. He has known that she likes him, but he doesn't know if he likes her as much as she does. He doesn't seem to be bothered by it too much, but the fact that she is oblivious on he knew her feelings for him makes his stomach growl. He wished he could tell her somehow, but she'd probably hit him on the head for looking into her diary…

"Yeah, yeah, I'm on it!" he shouted back, before making his last 5 laps. Everything felt as normal as ever, Mori thought. It was back to the way everything was. Though, she should've said her feelings three months ago. She had seen them sneaking into her room and reading her diary, but when she heard Sano reading her latest entry that day, she went speechless and walked down the stairs to prepare for dinner. She was still nervous, but the fact that Ueki knows, she didn't have to tell… right?

As she was brooding on those thoughts, little did Mori know that there was someone watching her?

"Oi, Kousuke-kun!" a girly yet annoying voice called out from the tracking field. Mori saw a girl walking towards the boy with small but elegant steps. Other men stared at her as she tucks her long and wavy blonde hair behind her ear. Mori knew who she was…

Natoshi Shizamara was the apple of every man's eye. She had the curves, the assets, the busts and everything that a man desires to see. She was the woman on the pedestal, and every man would want her as her boyfriend.

She was also a member of the tracking team. That way, she can show off her legs and her assets. She was that much of a slut, anyway.

"I was wondering if you want to grab some food on the way home." She said to him as her baby blue eyes bore through his own. The men stared at him, expecting that he would fall for the vixen's charm, like any other man would. Mori furrowed her eyebrows, hoping Ueki wouldn't do what men usually do.

"No thanks." He declined much to everyone's surprise as Mori sighed in relief. Even Natoshi had her eyes widened.

"Why not?"

"I have other plans."

"But what about tomorrow?"

"No, I have other plans. Sorry."

"But Kousuke-kun!" she shouted as he was already walking awaym while the audience watched in awe for the first-ever rejection of Natoshi Shizamara, the school's Queen bee.

"Oi Mori! Let's go to your house again! I'd like to try your sushi this time!"

"Oh no you're not going to! You have to take a bath first! Let's go to your house! You're sweating all over!"

"Yeah, yeah, I will, I will…" he muttered under his breathed. Maybe, he should tell her when he confirms his feelings for her. In the future, maybe, things might get a little better. Or worse.

As the both went out of the tracking field, none of them noticed the scowl plastered on the queen bee's face. No man has rejected her in front of her audience before.

It is normal for her to be like that. After all, everyone falls down on to her knees even before she could speak. She was everyone's Homecoming Queen. And after a moment of silence, whispers and loud voices came from her audience.

"Ueki Kousuke rejected her!'

"Can you believe that?"

"Kousuke-kun is sooo cool~! He actually rejected the most beautiful girl in school!"

"I know, right?"

"Is it possible that he has a girlfriend already?"

"Well, he doesn't seem the type…"

"What about Ai-san who just left with him awhile ago?"

"She must have been a best friend of hi!"

"No way. Mori Ai is WAY out of his league!"

"Ah, who knows? Maybe the both of them might end up together!"

Mori Ai. Natoshi knew her well. She was a genius and nerd at Mathematics. She used to be friends with her, until she became the most wanted woman in school. The truth about Mori was she was childish, sort of stupid, noisy, and annoying. And about Mori's love life? It was as dead as hell. She never has gone to any dates, nor her crushes were unknown about from the rumors she has heard from her men followers; all except Riku Takumi. Rumor has been that the two have been dating until he cheated her by kissing Miruka Shizamara, Natoshi's elder sister. Well, it was supposed to happen. Riku wasn't the man who was dedicated to a serious relationship. They weren't meant to be.

But Mori Ai and Ueki Kousuke? It seemed to be possible.

Hmmm… Natoshi thought. Maybe she could have her fun with this…

(590—509)

Somehow Sano was feeling a little bit at ease today. He was able to answer all of the questions in his third Geology quiz. He just hopes he could nail Math as well… his mother scolded him if he didn't.

He met up with Rinko once again. The two have been spending their after-school hours together. She would drag him to the mall, the department store, or they would stop by at the park and make their small and silence conversations there. Sometimes, Sano wonders if Rinko has…

Ah, nevermind. It wasn't true anyway. It could never happen. It's not like she hasn't gotten over Robert, anyway…"

"Hey Sano-kun!" and there she was again. Rinko smiled cheerfully and waved her hands high up in the air, signaling him to come over.

"I brought some snacks!" said she as she raised the small plastic full of junk food, "Let's visit Ai-chan and Ueki-kun. I just hope she doesn't find out that he knows…"

"Well, she doesn't know. She's a moron to know about it, anyways…"

"Hey, you can't just say that about Ai-chan!" Rinko barked at him, "You don't know if she ever spied on us!"

"Does she even have the capability to do so?" he asked.

"Yes! She used to spy on Kousuke-kun, remember?"

"And where's your proof?"

"It's mentioned in her diary. Remember?"

"Well, maybe, she got tired of that habit. And besides, that was way back in middle school."

She sighed tiredly, "Fine… but in time, I'll be the one who's right."

Sano smirked, "Hmph. Maybe so…"

The two walked in silence. It was the first time for them to have a talk like that. They would always bicker on whatever stupid thing happens. But they didn't seem to mind that silence was going way to loud. Or so they thought.

"Hey Sano…"

"Yeah…?"

"Is it okay to ask a question?"

"You already are asking." He laughed.

"…who is Cinderella…?" Sano stopped walking.

"…What…?"

"Who is Cinderella? You know, the girl that you like!" Rinko hated to ask but she had this nagging feeling inside her head that she has to do so.

"What do mean who is Cinderella?"

"Don't act stupid about it… you know what I meant, Sano… who do you like…?" the boy widened his eyes.

"Why do you even care?"

"I'm curious."

"But you sound desperate."

"I am not! Just tell me!"

He looked away form her, "Umm… well…"

"Hey guys! How's it going?" a familiar cheeky voice called out to them, "Are you heading for Mori's house? It's been awhile since I've tasted her cooking."

"Hideyoshi-san?"

"Hey, man, how's it going?" Sano asked.

"Nothing much! I just had a date!" Hideyoshi replied happily.

"Really? Who's she?" Rinko asked.

"It's a secret!" Hideyoshi smiled mysteriously, "Anyways… are you guys heading over to Mori's?"

A cellphone rang in Rinko's bag. She took it out and saw a message coming from Mori Ai.

"Mori says Ueki's done taking a bath the both of them would be on their way to her house! Let's get going guys!" she announced.

"Yeah!" Hideyoshi exclaimed and jumped for joy. He kept on ranting on how much his date had gone well. He was pretty much into the girl he's going to hook up with.

"Umm… Rinko…" Sano began as his other friend went to daydreaming about sushis and ramen.

"Yeah…?"

"About that person…"

"It's okay Sano-kun." She cut him off, leaving him surprised, "I know it's supposedly a secret. I'm sorry for asking…"

He forced a smile. "It's all right, Rinko!"

She smiled back and went to chat with Hideyoshi on dates and girls.

Does it always have to be likes this? Sano wondered. She doesn't know his feelings for her.

But what he doesn't know was that her feelings for Robert died away because of her feelings for him.
