Chapter 4 : Interests

-Chiharu POV-

Is the note about me? I feel like it or maybe there's another Tanaka-san. I don't think so. I called Risa just to know who are they mentioning..

*Beep beep beep*

"Risa here"

"Uh, Risa-chan.. About the note, is it mentioning about me?"

"Oh, Chiharu-chan! I think so.. But i'm not sure, so don't get so worried Chiharu-chan!"

"Oh, thats all , Bye Risa-chan"

"Bye"

We hanged up.

-Risa POV-

The next day-

"Oi Amazon!" Otani called me

"Diddn't I say to call my name!" I replied to him

"Yesterday I did all the cleaning work, so today you must treat me!" Otani said with a smirk

"Why should I? You're the one who sent the letter!" I replied

"And who's honest enough to return your bunny key chain" Otani said with a weird accent

I turned a pale shade of pink

"Fine!" I replied with anger

Nakano-sensei entered the class

"Wow this place looks more cleaner than before! Good job ALL Hanshin Kyojin!" He teased

"I told you to stop calling me that" we both said it at the same time

The whole class started laughing again

"Oh yeah, and I have a very important announcement to make. Starting today there's a new student in this school. Suzuki, you may come in now" Nakano-sensei announced

A male figure came in. Woah, he was tall!

" Now this new student is Ryoji Suzuki. Starting today, I hope you'll be good friends with him although he dosen't talk much"

He walked to me. I stared at him he was like a Prince Charming! His collarbone! His eyes! His height!

"Um, excuse me may I sit behind you?" he asked me

I stopped daydreaming

"Su-Sure! No problem! Sorry if i'm a little tall.."

"Thats okay, I'm also tall so its nothing"

I blushed, suddenly knowing whats this feeling is! Its LOVE!

-Otani POV-

Ooh, that amazon likes Suzuki-kun. I can even know by telling her looks! And I know what's the right thing to do!
If I told her, that she likes Suzuki her 1st reaction will be shocked! Then I'll say if I'll be friends with Suzuki, then I can even get them two together, and I'll ask for a deal, to ask her to help me get Tanaka-san! Great idea Otani, genius!

As soon as class ended I headed to Koizumi. She was staring at Suzuki like a freak

"Oi, didn't you say you're going to treat me today?" I asked her she seemed to seem suspisious

"Fine! Where should we eat?"

"At the Ikebe cafe"

We walked to the Ikebe cafe

- The Ikebe Cafe -

"Hey, there's something important I want to tell you" I told her

"What?" she asked

"You.. You like Suzuki-kun right" I teased her

"H-How did you know!" she was completely shocked replying

"Well, you're really easy to read, I can see it already when you first met him" I teased her again

"So, what for you're telling me this? Suspecting me?" she said

"Well, I was willing to become friends with him , so I may have a chance to make you two hook-up" I said

"Really?" her face lit

"Trust me, I'm a super-good guy you know" I said

"Then I'll pay it all what meal do you want? The hamburger with fries or the super combo set?" Koizumi said with excitement

"The super combo set!" I asked

"Oh, if you don't mind if you can hook me up with Tanaka-san" I asked again

"Huh? Tanaka-san?" she asked

"Tanaka Chiharu-san!" I explained it to her

"Ooh, so you like Chiharu-chan" she teased me

"Are you an idiot? She's super cute!" I said blushing

"Well, she's from a persons view, shes kinda cute, but I have something to tell you Otani," she said with depression

"Huh?" I asked unsure

"Chiharu-chan dislikes guys, especially the ones she doesn't know very well" she explained (comforting me)

I was a little depressed after hearing that but CHEER UP OTANI! Be a man! Show them your cool side! Fight for it!

"How CUTE!" I lied trying to be manlier

"eehh..." she said doesn't seem to understand me

"She's scared of boys, I can easily cure her!" I lied again

"Oh well then good luck!" she said

-The next day -

Trying to find him, where is Suzuki? Maybe I should search at the staircase.. There he is!

"Suzuki-kun!" I called out too him

"Yes?" he replied

His voice was soft, too soft

"Lets be friends!" I said

-Risa POV-

" Chiharu-chan!" I called out to her

" Yes?" she replied

" Are you free this Saturday?" I asked

Please say YES please say yes

"Yes, I'm free. Why?" she asked

SCORE!

"Well, I'm inviting you to a pool party, Nobu-chan and her boyfriend are going there too!" I said

"Sure! That's sounds fun!" she said

"Uhh.. you don't mind if I invite some of my other friends right?" I asked

"Sure.. the more the merrier.." she said

Otani! Thank You! Your plan was great Otani!

-Outside the classroom-

"So, how did it go?" Otani asked me

"Perfect! TOO perfect" I answered

"Great! Hey, I've asked Suzuki-kun if he had a girlfriend, he said no!" Otani said

I was too happy! VERY happy!

-Otani POV-

The pool -

"Its the Pool!" we both said together

"Ya, the pool can a pool make you damn happy?" Nobu teased

"Very Happy!"

I quickly ran to the pool and dived in. Seems like me and Koizumi are the ones who are very excited

"Hey, Koizumi, why don't you go and try it out?" I asked her

"Try what out?" she asked confused

"Try and talk to Suzuki-kun!" I said

"Sure! W-why not!" she said nervously

She seems like she's having a good time with Suzuki-kun. Must-do-something-with-Tanaka-san

I took a deep breath
"Tanaka-san! Lets swim!" I called out ( It seemed pretty well )

"Umm.. uh.. su-sure" she said with a scared look

Great! I got her! Now its time for Otani The Great to cure her from the scared-of-boys disease.

"So, what's your favorite hobby?" I asked

"Reading, how about yours?" she replied, then ask

"Playing basketball" I answered her

While I was going to ask Tanaka-san her birthday, I suddenly noticed that Koizumi was having a hard time there.
I looked around to see what can I do to help her. Aha! BINGO! A beach ball!

"Hey!~ Are you guys having fun?" I asked

"Y-Ya!" she looked relieved when she saw me

I swam to her

"You looked pale! What's happening?" I asked her

"I don't know what to say!"

"Idiot!"

I slapped her back

"Just be yourself" I convinced her

She smiled

We swam to Chiharu-chan and Suzuki-kun.

"Um.. where's Nobu-chan?" Koizumi asked them

"Oh, they're there at the water slide" Chiharu answered

"Water..Slide" me and Koizumi muttered slowly

Wow! I love Water Slides!

"Tanaka-san lets go on the water slide!" I invited her

"Um.. I'm kinda scared of it" she replied

Damn

"Suzuki-kun, what about you?" Koizumi asked him

"Sorry, I'm scared of it too" He replied

Uhh.. I really wanted to go onto the water slide.. Its been years that I haven't been in one! I looked at Koizumi. She seems like she wanted to go too.. She turned and looked at me giving me a look of "So?"

"uh.. we'll be right back" I said to them

We swam to the entrance to the swimming pool.

"Yay! Water Slide!" I heard Koizumi said

-After The Ride-

-Risa POV-

I enjoyed the water slide. Its was so damn fun!

"Did you guys had fun?" Nobu asked me

"Yes! REALLY fun!" We both said at the same time

"Um.. Wheres Suzuki-kun?" I asked

"He said he needed to go somewhere." Nakao replied

Uhh. OH NO! Could it be? No, it couldn't be! He left me! HE LEFT! HE LEFT!

"Ohh.. He's back" I heard Otani said

Relieved

"Where did you go Suzuki-kun?" Nakao asked

"I went to buy some drinks" He replied

He gave us the drinks. I was so HAPPY!

"Tanaka-san, I bought you a warm drink.. I thought you were cold so.." Suzuki-kun said

"Thanks" She thanked him

Why did he bought Chiharu-chan a warm drink... Did he? Do he? He likes her! Oh no! Soon Chiharu-chan will be my rival! I cant count her as my rival! We been friends since we're in Junior High!

What should I do?

That's the end of Chapter 4.. Its quite long though.. Sorry for the late update.. I went on a trip to visit my grandpa's in Texas.. Hope you enjoyed the chapter =) Thanks for reading!
