Yo, minna! Sorry for the very late update! Curse that writer's block!
ben4kevin. That will happen...but many chapters later...too bad...-sighs-
Lilspring. Well, sorry for that...ahaha...well, that's the main reason why I made him a vampire anyway...haha~
sTrAwbErRi009. Well, she is a Hibari, after all. It was already revealed that they are vampires, so that's okay. And don't worry, you'll see it in Chapter 6.
Then, on to the story!
Chapter 5: Waiting for Tomorrow
Sorako's POV
There's been an awkward silence between the two of us since we had started walking. Well, only for me. I'm not used to having a companion as silent as him. I can't think of anything to say! –scratches her head furiously then heavily sighs- Only if I have Pocky right now…
"Yes! That's it!" I shouted while raising my fist up into the air.
"What are you talking about, Sorako?"
"I'll buy lots and lots of Pocky strawberry-flavored!" I exclaimed happily.
"Are you trying to make the convenience store run out of stock?" He almost sweat dropped as he said that, but of course, his pride won't let him.
"So what? Do you care about those 'herbivores' now?" Perfect. A well-laid out trap.
"Not at all."
"Then what do you think about Tsu-chan?" Fall into the trap, Kyoya-niichan! –laughs evilly-
"He's a naive and pathetic omnivore." Looks like he chose his words carefully. 'Though I can't call him like that.' He thought…huh?
"Wait a minute…did you just say omnivore?"
"Yes." 'And what of that?' he added as an afterthought.
"You've never called someone an omnivore before." And that's a statement. Another first, huh?-mentally squeals-
"That's because he's in the line between an herbivore and carnivore." How blunt.
"Why is that?"
"When he is in his Hyper Dying Will Mode, he's a carnivore. When he goes back to normal, he is a weak, pathetic, useless, and naive herbivore." He explained. Nice excuse.
"Is that so?" He replied with a nod.
"But, I wonder, is that your true feelings for him?"
"What else?"
"...Alright, I give up."
"Hn."
After that, another silent walk. -sighs- At least we're near the post office. I really wonder, what does Kyoya-niichan feel when he's near Tsu-chan? -sighs again-
"Would you stop sighing?" My brother said with an irritated look on his face.
"What's wrong with sighing?" I shouted back.
"You're so noisy."
"Jeez! Sighing isn't as noisy as you think, Kyoya-niichan! I've already deactivated your enhanced hearing, so why are you still complaining?" I asked.
"You're disturbing the silence." He answered matter-of-factly. What kind of reason is that? ! (A/N: I put a space between the question mark and the exclamation point so it won't be erased.)
"Well...I was wondering...What do you feel when you're near Tsu-chan?"
"...I am so pissed off that my stomach feels like there are butterflies in it..." He said with a scowl.
"Eh? ! Shouldn't you feel that when you're in love? !" What kind of twisted logic does he have?
"Why? Have felt that before?" I almost facepalmed. He really doesn't know emotions, does he? -sighs heavily- Then, when his question sank into my mind, I blushed.
"W-W-W-Well...u-u-um...wh-when I met him..." I stuttered, then looked down so he won't see my blushing face.
"O-Oh...is that so...sorry if I brought that up..."
"Eh? What do you mean?" I blinked. What does he mean he brought that up?
"Huh? Weren't we talking about that* little boy you met when you were 5 years old at the villa?" Oh. So he meant him*. I looked down. I thought it was that blond man I saw before that looks like a hologram. Then, I saw in my mind an image of when I met that* person 8 years ago. I didn't notice that I'm crying until I felt Kyoya-niichan's hand rubbing circles on my back to comfort me. I looked up at him.
"Mm-mm." I shook my head. "It's ok. I'm slowly moving on. Anyway, we're already here, so let's not waste time, 'kay?" I faked a smile so I will look like I'm happy. But the smile became a sad smile. Not enough, I think.
"All right." He frowned when saw the smile. 'Don't be sad, Sorako.'
"Yeah! Let's get this over with!" I wanna buy Pocky...so I hurriedly wrote the Academy's address in the form and submitted the package to the person in front of me. He was shocked with my actions. Maybe he hadn't met someone that does things that fast.
"Do you really want to buy Pocky that bad?" My brother fighted the urge to roll his eyes at me.
"Yeah! I haven't eaten them for weeks! Wait for me Pocky, wait for mama! Ahahahaha!" I laughed evilly. "Let's go!" I grabbed his hand and ran as fast as I could so I'll go to convenience store soon. When I was near the door, I halted very quickly that my brother (who I was dragging) almost bumped into me if it wasn't for his abilities.
"You won't repeat that. Ever. Again." He said with gritted teeth.
"Okay." I grinned sheepishly. "Then, I shall buy Pocky!" I ran to the aisle where I know Pocky Strawberry is, grabbed them all, then ran back to the cashier.
"Wha!" The cashier exclaimed. "So you'll buy all of that, miss?" She was just able to smile at my antics.
"Yes! And do you accept credit cards?" When she looked at my brother, she had a face that looked something like: O.O . Then she looked back at me. I mouthed, "He's my brother."
"Oh! Is he your brother? No need to pay then! It was thanks to him that there weren't robbers here anymore!" She said in astonishment(maybe?).
"O-Oh. Is that so? Then, could you just pack these?" By that time I had a face that looked like: ^_^||| . She hurriedly packed them in two plastic bags. Then, she muttered something that seemed to be, "H-Here."
"Thanks. Let's go, Kyoya-niichan!" I hooked my arms to his.
-sighs- Another short chapter!
*=a person Sorako-chan met when she was 5.
Somewhat this chapter is uneventful...-sighs again-...Anyway, For those that reviewed and will review, and read this story up to this chapter, Thanks a lot!
