CHAPTER 5
"Yeah, it really is." The voice said. Kukai and Tadase both jumped at the sudden voice. They immediately turned around and saw him with a slight smile on his face.
"Sorry for scaring you guys. I'm Ikuto Tsukiyomi."
"Yeah, we know who you are. You're that famous 'cute' punk who stole all the girls on this campus!" Kukai exclaimed.
"Oh…uh…sorry?"
He slowly turned away only to find Tadase.
"Hey…you…you're…Tadase Hotori!"
"Yeah! You still recognize me after all these years?"
"Of course, man. This is unbelievable! Wow, this world really is small! So where have you been all these years?"
"You know…same old, same old."
Ikuto lifted his arm, patted Tadase hard on the back, and gave him an approving smile. Tadase almost fell forward, but Kukai stopped him.
"Wow, Tadase. You're so weak! It sucks how you have your mom's body structure." Kukai commented. He chuckled and turned towards me. Tadase just ignored him and moved on. Ikuto put his hand on Tadase's shoulder, and the two walked away, having a nice conversation.
"So…how was that for ya?" Kukai asked, putting his hands on my shoulders. I lifted my head up and looked into his eyes. I opened my mouth and slowly said…
"Honestly…I really think I do have feelings on him already. When…when he suddenly came over here, I felt my heart trying to burst through my chest. My face suddenly became all hot, and my stomach had butterflies in them. How does this just happen so fast? This is insane. Stuff like this never happens! Stuff like should never happen!"
"It's called 'love at first sight'. So what are you planning on doing?"
"I'm just…going to try to ignore it as best as I can. I'm not ready to handle a situation like this just yet." I said, getting up to go home. I walked away, leaving Kukai there. I really needed to think things through. Seriously.
