I'm sooo sorry Minna! It was soo long ago since I last updated. I had a lot of things to do especially learning. -.- But now it's finally summer break so I can update! YAY! Anyway here's the fourth chapter. Enjoy! :)


*Utako's POV*

*Dream*

''Kise-kun! Wait for me!'' I shouted and ran after him. He just kept walking and didn't even slowed down or looked back.

''Oi! Kise-kun!'' I tried again, with no result. I stopped.

''Why are you ignoring me?'' I asked silently. He finally stopped, and turned to me.

''Why? Because I hate you.'' he said and glared at me with those piercing golden eyes.

I stood there dumbfounded. His words struck through my chest like a sword. Tears were already prickling my eyes. I closed them, trying to hide them and make them go away. I cleaned my head, gathered my voice and shouted at him, the tears that I desperately tried to keep from coming forth were already streaming down my face like waterfall:

''You said you'd protect me! So why?''

''You made my life turn upside down, all because of your stupid feelings.'' Kise said calmly his face expressing hatred. ''I don't want to protect you anymore. I don't care about you. I despise you…'' his voice slowly faded away as he turned his back towards me, and slowly walked away…

*End of Dream*

I woke up with a scream. My whole body was covered in sweat and I was panting. The images of the dream were still lingering in my head. I realized that I was shaking so I wrapped my arms around myself and snuggled back into the sheets. The warmth of them made me a bit comfortable and I was finally able to calm down a bit. 'I'm glad that it was just a dream.' I thought. I wouldn't know what I'd do if Kise said those words to me for real.

I sighed a sigh of relief and got out of bed. I went into the kitchen and saw a plate of rice set out on the table for me. It seems like Hayato's already left. I grabbed the plate and put the rice on it into a lunch box and then into my schoolbag. I went into the bathroom washed up and dressed up in my uniform. In ten minutes, I was ready for school.

As I was walking to school, I heard a familiar voice yell out my name and smiled.

''Uta-chan! Wait for me!'' It was Kise. I stopped and turned to wait for him. He caught up to me fast. As expected of a basketball player.

''What's up?'' he asked cheerfully.

''Nothing special.'' I answered and looked into his eyes. Suddenly a picture from my dream appeared before me. His piercing gold eyes glaring at me with hatred. I shivered and swept the thought away.

''Uta-chan? What's wrong? Why are you shivering? Are you sick?'' Kise asked worry showing in his eyes.

''Oh, sorry it's nothing. I just had a bad dream and it came into my mind.'' I smiled at him. Meanwhile we reached the school.

''What was that dream about?'' he asked curiously. '' If you don't mind telling me.''

''I'm sorry, but I'd rather not talk about it, it's still fresh.'' I smiled at him reassuringly that I'm all right. ''I have to use the restroom you go ahead to the classroom okay?'' I asked and he nodded.

I went to the nearest restroom, leaned onto a sink and looked into the mirror. I didn't look that bad, but I haven't had a happy look either. Then I heard voices and I tried not to look into that direction. But despite my attempts at trying to hide in the mirror the girls still noticed me.

''My, my. What have we got here?'' asked one of the girls and I could see in the mirror that she had a smirk on her face. ''An ugly bitch.'' answered another. I tried to ignore them and kept on looking at myself in the mirror.

''Hey. Look, look. She's particularly stuck to the mirror. Do you think that you're so beautiful that you're gonna win Kise-kun over? If yes, then you're in mistake. You're an ugly bitch who's just a nuisance to Kise-kun. He's with you just because you're pitiful. He'll eventually realize that you're not worth his pity and he'll leave you. You better conceive that.

I couldn't bear it now. I turned and glared at them.

''He won't leave me! He's gonna stay with me! He'll protect me! He said it himself!'' I screamed at them with all my voice and courage. I looked at one of the girls, a blonde.

She was fuming. It was as if she was smoldering. She looked like she'll burst in any moment. The others did not look good either. Then the blonde lost it. She grabbed my hand and slammed me into a restroom stall. I gasped as all the air I had left my body in an instant. I slid to the ground trying to catch my breath.

Another girl grabbed me by my hair and pulled my up so I was at eye-level with her. I screamed in pain although I didn't want to give them the pleasure of it, but it just hurt like hell.

''How dare you talk back to us you little shameless bitch! We were kind enough to leave you be until Kise-kun leaves you on his own because we didn't want him to hate us! But now you were clever enough to upset us! Now we won't leave you alone until you get the hell out of here!'' She screamed into my face and released my head so I dropped onto the ground.

Then the blonde grabbed me by my throat. I couldn't believe. She was trying to kill me! I was gasping for air and my vision started to sway, just when I heard one of the girls say to her friends: ''Girls. We're screwed.'' The blonde gasped and released my throat so I could finally catch my breath. I looked to the door and what I saw gave me mixed feelings.

Kise was standing in the doorway with some teachers, including the headmaster, our homeroom teacher and a whole gathering of students behind them.

When the girls leaved my side Kise immediately rushed to me.

''Utako are you all right?'' his voice was serious and full of worry. The was no trace of the usual cheerfulness and he wasn't calling my nickname. He was dead serious. I nodded and let him help me up. I swayed and he caught me. He hugged me tightly and helped me not to fall. I looked up.

''Whats the meaning of this girls?'' the headmaster asked. He was obviously at loss of words.

''You were actually trying to kill one of our precious students? May I ask why?''

I couldn't see their face, but heard the blonde answer:

''Because she loves Kise-kun.''
