Eari had thought and gone over that scene many times. Until one day, Ed turned up outside her school. Completely dumbfounded and yet not sure whether it was actually him, she loitered in the doorway. Then Ed came over. "Hey Eari."
"Holy shit Ed it really is you!" Ed nodded. "Whats the matter?" He looked her straight in the face.
"Its time." Eari nodded.
"Hey Eari who's this?" Eari stiffened as Ami's voice shot through her.
"This is Ed..." Eari pulled a face as her and Daiki kissed eachother playfully. Then someone tapped Eari's shoulder. She turned around and saw Daichi, arms outstretched. She gave him a hug and when she looked at Ed afterwards, he had a confused look. "Are you walking home?" Asked Ami.
"I dunno," replied Eari. She looked at Ed.
"I suppose we could go that way..." So they began walking home.
"Whats up?" Eari asked Eds still confused look.
"That boy gave me a glare..." Eari thought. Daichi must have glared at him over her shoulder.
"Don't worry about him, he's just jelous. He treats me like barely anyone then when someone else comes along he gets protective."
"Why would he get jelous?"
"Because..." Eari thought for a minute, before turning to Ed. "I has no clue." Ed laughed at the face Eari had pulled and ruffled her hair. "Don't do that you'll mess it up!"
"So," came a voice from behind them, it was Ami. "How did you guys meet?"
"H-he's my grandmothers adoptive son..." Eari knew what was processing through Ami's mind when she said things in that tone. Ami looked at Edward. "Really?"
"Y-yeah," Eari replied.
"How come he came to pick you up?"
"Oh! He was just passing."
"Yeah, I was walking around this way and I thought I'd come and say hi," Ed said. Eari took Eds jacket by the shoulder and pulled him close so he could hear her whisper (God it sucks to be small). "Hey, Ed. How come you knew where my school was anyway?"
"Well I guessed you had to go to the closed one to your house, so caught the bus and wondered around, asking people where it was. Trust me, your school is quite a trekk from where you live."
"Yeah, I know."
"Listen, it was stupid to just turn up like that, unexpected, with no plans."
"But you said it was time."
"Yes, the little itching feeling just got stronger. It is time to stop whatever it is, but we can't stop it now. Pop over tomorrow, we'll get Nadeshiko and Mitsoka round and we'll figure this out. I promise." Ed pulled away from Eari and walked down the road, whereas Eari had to turn right. Ed waved goodbye then carried on. Eari's eyes widened. Now she was stuck with Daiki and Ami! As soon as she could, she turned a corner a way they didn't go.
