Back to the present…
Reina walked towards the Eitoku gates, sighing as the limos and Bentleys passed her by. 'Would it kill any of them if they walked to school?' she thought, sighing with disgust.
"Hey! You, girl!"
She glanced towards the sound of the voice. She saw a boy sticking his head out the window of a black Bentley.
"I knew it was you!" he yelled before his head disappeared back into the car.
'What the?' she thought, looking around to see if he was talking to her.
The car stopped and the boy stepped out. He walked towards her with a big smile. Reina nervously took a step back as the boy came close.
"Yo," he greeted her.
"Uh… do I know you?" she asked, nervously.
"No, but I had the pleasure of sampling your bento box the other day," he said with a grin.
"Oh… uhh… okay," she replied, inching to her left to go around him.
"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Akito Mimasaki," he said, sticking out his hand blocking her way.
Reina hesitated before putting her hand in his. "Uh, I'm Rei-," she got out before someone bumped into her from behind.
"Ah! Sorry!" the boy who ran into her said as he started to take off.
"Hey, you!" he yelled at the boy. "Come back here and apologize properly!"
"Uh, no. That's okay," Reina said, trying not to draw attention to herself.
The boy froze and turned around as he heard Akito's voice. "Yeah, you, come here!" Akito yelled.
"Uh, really, that's okay. I,uh, gotta go anyways…" she said quickly walking towards school, avoiding the students who stopped to look.
"How the hell do you just throw a quick apology and try to run away?" he chastised the boy, grabbing him by the back of his neck. "Now apologize to- HEY! Where'd she go?" Akito wondered looking around.
"UH, uh, I think she went in the school," the boy said in a scared voice, pointing to Reina, who just walked into the school doors.
"Great!" Akito fumed giving the boy an evil glare before letting him go.
Reina walked into the school, relieved to get away from that crazy guy. 'Akito Mimasaki, huh? Weirdo.' She walked towards her locker and threw her books in before heading towards class.
RIIIINNNGGGGGG…
The bell rang, signaling lunchtime. Reina nervously walked towards the garden, half hoping the boy would be there. She made extra food today, hoping to share it with him. She walked up to her spot and looked around. She was alone. 'Well, what did you expect?' she sighed as she sat down disappointed. 'What am I thinking?! Why am I disappointed? I should be happy!' she chastised herself. She opened her bento and ate a piece of nigiri, slowly chewing her food, deep in thought.
"Whatcha got today?"
Reina jumped at his voice. "Uh um… uh…" she stuttered, blushing, because he caught her unaware.
"Hmm… not good today?"
"What?" she asked, confused.
"Your food. You're not moaning today… does that mean it's not good?" he asked with a grin, sitting down beside her.
She blushed even more. "Uh… I don't know… I uh… it's okay… want some?" she asked, offering her the bento. He looked at her with an amused smile, not taking the food. 'What am I thinking? Of course he doesn't want any. Why would he when he probably had a chef made lunch!' Feeling embarrassed she took the bento back.
"S-Sorry, you probably a-already had lunch."
"No, I was waiting for you to tell me which one to eat first," he chuckled.
"O-Oh! Um… you can try the shrimp nigiri first if you like," she said softly.
"Okay."
He made no move to grab the food. She waited, wondering why he didn't take the food.
"Oh! I'm sorry," she said, embarrassed. "Here." She handed him the chopsticks.
"Feed me."
"What?!" she exclaimed, shocked.
He burst out laughing. "You should see the look on your face." He grabbed the chopsticks from her and started eating. He frowned while chewing the food.
"I-Is it not good?" she asked nervously.
"No…"
She flushed with embarrassment. "I-I'm sor-"
"It's better than good. It's great!" he said happily munching. "Who made this? Your chef?"
"N-No… I did," she said, secretly happy that he liked it.
"What? Really? Are you serious?" he looked at her, surprised.
She smiled shly. "Yes. I made it. I like to cook for myself."
"Wow, you're a great cook!" he exclaimed, taking another piece. "I cook a little too, but I'm not this good!"
She stared at him in shock. "You can cook?!"
"H-Hey, what's with that shocked look? I can cook, y'know. My mom loves to cook for my dad, so she taught me how… well only the basics, anyways," he said with a grin.
"Your mom must be a wonderful lady," Reina smiled, remembering Tsukushi.
"She is," he said fondly. He suddenly stopped eating, chopsticks still in his mouth. "Oh, I'm sorry. I'm eating all your food."
"Oh! N-No. That's okay. I'm glad you're enjoying it," she said shyly.
"Here," he said as he brought the salmon nigiri to her mouth. "Eat."
She looked at him in surprise. "Uh… uh… no, that's okay," she said, laughing nervously, waving him off with her hands. "You go ahead."
He frowned at her. "Eat it."
"N-No."
He cocked his head to the side. "If you don't eat it, I'll do something bad to you."
"What?! L-Like w-what?" she asked, leaning back a little, heart pounding from fear and excitement.
He looked at the girl and thought for a second. 'What do I say to scare her?' he thought, trying not to laugh at her expression. He looked at her, nervously biting her lips. He said the first thing that popped in his mind. "I'll kiss you."
Reina froze. 'K-kiss me?!' She looked at his lips. 'What would that feel like, I wonder? Gah! What am I thinking?!' she thought, shaking her head to clear that thought. "I'll eat."
"What was that?" Kyo asked, one eyebrow raised.
"I said I'll eat," she mumbled.
"What? You want a kiss?"
"I said I'll eat!" she yelled. She covered her mouth with her hand, embarrassed, unable to believe that she just yelled at him.
He chuckled. "That's what I thought you said." He brought the food back to her lips.
"I-I can feed myself…"
"I know, but I like feeding cute girls who makes homemade lunches," he winked at her.
She blushed.
"Open wide," he said as he brought the food to her lips. She obeyed and opened her mouth as he feed her.
"Good?" he asked.
She nodded, blushing. 'Oh my god! I can't believe I let a guy feed me! What am I doing?!'
Kyo popped another piece in his mouth, chewing delightfully as he watched the girl. After they finished the bento, she packed the containers and chopstick back into her tote.
"Sorry, I never got your name," he said suddenly.
She looked up at him, surprised. "Oh, uh, it's Reina."
He frowned. "Reina? That name sounds familiar. Have we met before?"
'He doesn't remember me,' she thought. "Uh, no, I don't think so," she said, forcing a small smile. 'He doesn't remember me.'
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, positive."
"Hmm…" he said brows furrowing, deep in thought.
The bell rang signaling the end of lunch.
"Well, uh, I'll see you," she said, getting up to leave before he remembers anything.
"Wait!" he said grabbing her wrist.
She turned back to him in surprise. "Yeah?" she said nervously, a tingling sensation running up her wrists from the contact.
"I'm Kyosuke."
"Kyosuke Domyouji. I know."
"You do?" he asked in surprise.
'Shoot!' she thought frantically. "Uh… yeah, the teacher called you 'Mr. Domyouji' and the students called you 'Kyosuke'."
"Oh... oh yeah… in class," he said with a smile.
She laughed nervously. "Yeah. Well… see you!" She broke free from his grasp and quickly walked away. 'That was a close one!'
"Hey!"
She froze in her tracks and slowly turned around. "Uh... yeah?"
"Same time tomorrow?" he called out.
She let out a small sigh of relief. She smiled and nodded. He smiled and waved at her before walking away. She felt her heart flutter at his smile. She smiled happily as she walked back indoors.
When the last school bell rang, she walked towards her locker to grab her book bag before going home.
"Well, well, well… what do we have here?"
Reina turned to see Suzumi, Kaoru, and Rika surround her. She closed her locker and tried to pass by them. Kaoru moved to block her escape.
"Did you need something?" she asked, nervously.
Rika laughed. "No, but we saw something interesting today in the gardens, didn't we girls?"
"Yeah. It seems like someone was trying to hit on your man, Suzumi."
"W-What are you talking about?" Reina asked, worried.
"Don't play dumb, little girl," Suzumi sneered, poking her in the chest, hard. "Kyosuke is mine. Don't even think for a moment that you can have him."
"I-I don't know what you're talking about," Reina said, wincing at the pain.
"I know what you're up to, bitch…," she said, pulling her roughly outside. "See Kyosuke over there? You know what he's saying? He's saying how funny it is that an ugly fat cow like you is trying to feed him. They're laughing because the more he eats with you, the less you'll eat." Suzumi and her friends laughed. Suzumi saw Reina's face pale and called out to Kyo. "Kyosuke, honey!" she waved.
She saw Kyosuke glance over to them. His group of friends looked over too. She saw one of the boys point over before they all laughed. Kyosuke said something before looking at her and winked. She felt humiliated. She broke away from the girls and ran off towards the gates of Eitoku.
'Stupid, I'm so stupid!' She ran, tears prickling her eyes. 'How could I have thought he was the same Kyo from long ago?' She ran until she ran out of breathe, before walking aimlessly around the busy streets, not noticing the perverted old man following her.
Kyo stood with Akito, Seijun and the other boys in their class, laughing at the prank they pulled on their homeroom teacher.
"Kyosuke, honey!"
He turned to look at the girl calling his name.
"Hey, Kyo. What's up with you and Suzumi? You hitting that?" the boy with the messy hair asked.
"Damn, you get all the girls, man!" one of the boys said enviously, nudging Kyo with his elbow.
"My man here, he likes to keep the ladies guessing. He's a total waste. He can get any one of them, but he doesn't," Seijun, said pointing in Suzumi's direction.
"Nah, I'm a one woman kinda man," Kyo laughed, winking at Reina as he saw her looking. He stopped laughing and frowned when he saw the look on her face as she took off running.
"Hey guys, I gotta go," Kyo said as he threw on his helmet and jumped on his motorcycle.
"What? Aren't we gonna go hit the clubs tonight?" Akito asked as Kyo started his engine.
"Hey Kyo! Kyosuke!" Seijun called out to him as he sped off. "What's the matter with him?"
"Beats me," Akito replied.
Kyo sped off down the streets, wondering what happened back there with Reina. 'Where did you go?' he thought as he drove around, looking for a girl wearing a frumpy red sweater.
