Hello Everyone! ^_~ I'm so happy to update on this! How are you liking it so far? Let me know! =D
Also, who wants to guess who's going to die next? XD You're welcomed comment on whoo you think it is. but I'm not telling you just yet hehe! ^^
After washing off the small amount of blood that had gotten on her hands from Len's head, she hadn't almost noticed it before but was thankful she did, Miku pulled her bag from her back and pulled the necklace out letting it rest against her palm. Just tilting it slightly made it glisten in the light. The only thought on her mind was that she couldn't get over how it should have been hers to begin with and not Meiko's. She wished she cold put it on and walk up to Kaito, knowing that she was his only true love and that he had gotten it just for her because he loved her in return.
So romantic... Yet so sickening because it also reminds me of her.
As she pushed the necklace back into her small bag, wishing she had her messenger backpack at home instead of this useless thing, Miku glanced to the vent in the stall. Len had started kicking up a storm for a while though wasn't successful in escaping, but finally it had grown quite and she was convinced that he too was now dead like his sister. The thought of wondering how death felt crossed her mind on the walk back, but when she stepped into the gym her expression brightened slightly.
Throwing her bag on the bleachers where the others had left theirs Miku heading to help out on stage. Luckily for her, Rin and Len hadn't gotten their backpacked from their lockers yet. So she didn't have to hide evidence of their missing bodies not retrieving them. Twirling her hair and looking as innocent as possible, she passed by Luka and Neru, who were helping Nero with the painting she had been working on yesterday, and approached toward Kaito's location.
He was atop a large latter hanging one of the pumpkins on the wall with the nail gun. They sparkled from the gym lights above, with a thick glittery layer of dust. A slight amount of it had floated onto Kaito's hair and as Miku approached him she saw this. Staring in a daze she watched him climb down, as he turned back noticing her. He smiled showing off his perfectly white teeth, which only made her heart beat faster. "Hey Miku, where's Len and Rin?" Kaito asked.
Up until that moment, she had completely forgotten about the two since she saw him. Of course she couldn't honestly tell him the truth of what happened. Though she wished she could, without seeming crazy and dangerous. It was so unfair, in her opinion, how society treated people like her. Everyone slips every once in a while.
He looks so beautiful... I wish I didn't have to lie to him.
She sighed then rolled her eyes to the left playfully. "Oh you know Len, if Rin's feeling sick he's there for her over everyone else. Rin got a stomach ache, probably nerves or stress related, anyways he decided to go home with her and let her rest."
"Oh, really?" Gakupo asked as he joined the two from out of nowhere. Miku hadn't seen him walking up on her side. He had his long violet hair pulled to the right so it was hanging down his chest, wearing the school uniform with a matching tie. She still wondered why so many girls found him to be the most attractive guy in school, Kaito was far more interesting and not as perverted in her opinion. Though Gakupo was handsome in ways, she would admit.
She gave him a small nod, "Yeah, I hope she will be alright."
"What a shame me and Len had plans to work on the music tracks for the dance. I guess it's just us tonight Kaito."
Miku blinked. "You guys have plans? I was going to ask Kaito if he wanted to go to the Café after school." She gave a pouting look, though she was mentally glaring at Gakupo for stealing the moment. Her left hand tucked behind her back in a fist. The Kuroneko Café was a usual hang out for all of them, since it was close to the school and had to be passed for most of the group members to reach home. Not to mention that the first day after Miku had met Kaito, they shared coffee there and became good friends.
"It's alright, we were just going to catch a movie and work on the music, guys stuff. You can come with us if you want to." Kaito flashed her a smile before he started back up the latter with the next pumpkin. She couldn't help but blush when he did. Everything about him made her light up inside and feel warm and happy, like a child on their birthday might or a holiday. With him she felt completely normal and no were near insane. "You sure it's OK? I don't wanna be a bother."
"Why wouldn't it be?" Gakupo commented as he winked at her. Upon all the girls in the school, Gakupo had dated most of them, except for about forty or so, and Miku was one of them that he hadn't. Although it was obvious that he wasn't her cup of tea, so to speak, he was persistent as hell sometimes with flirting. "Gee thanks, alright then I guess will meet up at the theater, around say seven?"
"Sounds good to me. Miku, are you helping with the decorations today?" Kaito asked.
"If she does, then please be more careful than you were with the nail gun yesterday." Gakupo commented with a smirk, though as he did Kaito frowned. It was obvious that it reminded him of Meiko even if her name wasn't said. Of course he hadn't gotten over her yet, like Miku hoped he would have. She wished she would have actually hit her now, so that what little hope he had left of seeing her again would vanish and he could move on to new things, like her for example.
Miku laughed slightly at his words. "Don't worry I promise I won't let it slip again."
Though if you get in my way I might possibly drop it by accident.
After they had finished up with all the decor and banners, all that was really left to do was finish painting the background on stage. Though that could wait till tomorrow. As Miku followed after Kaito and Gakupo, mainly Kaito though, she said her goodbyes and started off walking the opposite way toward her home. She stopped at the café for a hot mocha, glancing at the table where they usually sat, then continued on her way. Miku was thrilled when Kaito had offered for her to join them at the theater, a part of her wished it was classical plays instead of movies though.
As she walked humming a song to herself, she was slightly day dreaming about how things would go tonight. If she was lucky, she would get to sit by Kaito through the movie. Sharing popcorn and those sour gummy things he liked so much, though she couldn't recall the name of them at the moment. Maybe Gakupo would cancel for some emergency reason so that it would be just the two of them, and maybe Kaito would finally realize how much she was in love with him. How she would be a better girlfriend than Meiko. It hadn't been long since she went missing. Miku was curious if the police had any leads yet, but asking would make her look suspicious of course.
Pulling the hello kitty key chain from her bag that had attached to it her house key, Miku opened the front door of the house and slipped inside. "I'm home!" Miku shouted through the empty house before sighing. "Oh right, no ones home." Sometimes she forgot that her parents didn't live with her anymore, or on the earth for that matter. It was a long story but because of things in the past she had no choice but to remove them from the picture when she had the chance. It made her sad to think of them that way now, but that was in the past and it couldn't be undone now.
Tossing her backpack on the couch she hurried into her room. Glancing at the time it was on her small blue star alarm clock, she started planning out what exactly to do to keep time going by without dieing of boredom. So while humming a sweet tune she stepped over to her closet, which unlike some doors in Japan didn't slid open, but was a thick wooden one that opened outward regularly.
As she turned the silver handle slightly she paused when she heard a beating sound from behind the door itself, then quickly released the lock and stepped aside as none other than Meiko fell forward to the ground beside her. "You know you make a lot of noise." Miku commented. "Luckily we don't have close neighbors around or you would be a huger problem compared to what you are now."
Meiko was bound in ropes at her wrist and legs, a strip of duck tape over her mouth which was attempting to move beneath as she glared angrily up at Miku. She placed a hand to her ear and cupped it as she leaned closer to her, "What was that? Speak up a little please."
At that Meiko started pulling herself the best she could up onto the bed, Miku ended up helping her into a sitting position, then quickly ripped the tape off causing her to let out a shrill scream before she rubbed at her mouth with the back of her hands.
"What the hells wrong with you? I demand to know why you're doing this to me, and while you're at it get these ropes off they're starting to hurt! My family must be so worried about me, oh and Kaito will wonder why I didn't call-"
"Shut up! I wouldn't be barking orders miss princess, besides you won't have to worry about being here much longer when the dance night comes." Miku stated as she pulled a few outfits from her closet and laid them next to her.
Meiko blinked. "H-Huh? So you're going to let me go? This is a joke then? To think I was nice to a freak like you and this is how you repay me! I'm going to get you back for this! Kaito will never..." She trailed off for a moment as she watched Miku twirl once by her mirror, holding a pink and black dress up before her. "Are you listening to me idiot!"
Within a fem moments Miku had dropped the dress. Her expression changed from delighted to hateful, as she brought her right hand up and across Meiko's cheek. A large red spot surfaced almost instantly as her eyes watered over when she looked back to Miku's face.
"You're already ruining my night you bitch! I still don't understand what Kaito sees in you. If it wasn't for him I would have already killed you, but I have a better way of doing that. Oh, I hope he liked this dress." Miku spoke in a tone that went from harsh to light, as she pulled her silky teal hair from it's pig tales and started brushing it together.
"Kaito? You kidnapped me because you wanted to get to him?"
Miku smirked. "Putting the puzzle together finally, gee I thought blondes were dumb but I guess brunets are worse. Kaito is mine so get over him quickly because it's not like you'll have the option of liking him for much longer. Were going on a date tonight, though Gakupo is tagging alone, it will still be magical. Ever since we first met on that roof I knew Kaito was the one for me." She giggled.
Meiko blinked as she put two and two together from that comment. "My God.. You really are crazy... I knew Kaito would never fall for someone like you. There no way you could ever-"
Miku shot a glaring look at her as she cut Meiko off, "Could never what? Be together? Ha! You think he likes you more than me? I know he doesn't! When he saved me that day on the roof, I knew he was sent to me to be with me... He is the one meant for me and he loves me too. But because of you, he was never able to ask me out! You're nothing but a first class rich temptress, and in time I intend to solve that problem." A wide grin formed on her face as she pulled another dress from her bed and twirled. It was lined from the chest down with mall silver buttons and a ribbon at the waist. "Now, what do you think of this one? To black? Maybe I should wear something blue instead, for Kaito."
Meiko didn't reply, she sat quietly as the situation she was in slowly started to sink in a little more with each passing moment. She was sure that there was no way out of here, not in the condition she was in, and that Miku was in fact crazy. All that she saw left to do was sit there and cry, till the time came for Miku to leave and she forced her back into the closet, locking the door. Leaving her in darkness for who knows how long till she would return.
"Now don't make to many noises in case- Well never mind, no ones coming to your rescue anytime soon. See you later!" Miku giggled as she grabbed her messenger bag and skipping to the front door with a wide grin across her face.
