Magnet

Chapter 27

~Len POV~

Kahoko broke the silence by saying, "Len, about Kaji, I-", she trailed off.

My mind was blank and the glass of water slipped from my hand. It broke on the ground and I still didn't care. I stood there quietly.

I heard Kahoko say, "Oh my gosh, Len! What are you thinking? I'll clean it up so move!".

I didn't move and my mind was starting to have thoughts… lots and lots of thoughts…

I felt Kahoko pull me and made me sit on the couch then she cleaned my mess. Without thinking of the mess I made, my mind started to get negative thoughts.

Think positive, Len. She was about to say that there's nothing between him and her. But what if she's about to confess that she likes Kaji a long time ago? NO! As I think up of what she was about to say next, it made me think pessimistic even more. No, no, no. Yuu had told me about mind over matter. I must think that Kahoko is going to say that there's nothing between him and her and it will happen.

"What's wrong Len?", Kahoko asked as she wave her hand in front of my face. I blinked rapidly. "Your mind has been roaming somewhere isn't it?".

I stared at her.

"Is it because you ate shrimps that's why you're like that?", Kahoko asked and sat beside me.

"Not the shrimps", I said. Of all the things I ate, what did shrimps had to do with me?

Kahoko looked at me and said, "Can I tell you something or you don't want to hear it?".

"I don't want to hear you telling me that you and Kaji are in a relationship", I said not thinking. Even though I have said it, I don't regret it.

Kahoko blushed. "How did you know?".

I shrugged.

"Len! I want to know. How did you kn-", I covered my hand on her mouth.

"Dare ask me again and I'll do something that you'll regret seeing me", I said which made me flinch at the sound of my voice. I removed my hand from her mouth.

Kahoko also flinched at what I said… yet she dared. "How did you know?", she asked, challenging me.

You asked for it. I thought and pinned her down the couch and leaned towards her. Her scent gave pleasure to my nose… strawberry.

She was surprised at my actions and her face was turning the same hue as her hair. I'm also surprised… I even got surprised after I gave her a kiss on the tip of her nose.

"That wasn't something to regret", Kahoko said.

"Huh?" was my response.

"Well… I don't care anymore where you got that information but Kaji and I are engaged", Kahoko said.

That made my heart squeeze in an uncomfortable way.

"And you think he'll be okay with you flirting with another guy?", I asked.

"Oh… but I'm not flirting… you started it", Kahoko said.

I shook my head.

"How about you… will you be okay if I were to flirt with a guy?", Kahoko asked me.

"Of course…", she gave me a face and I continued, "NOT", emphasizing the word.

She gave a creepy smile… seductive smile, I corrected myself. "You're jealous!", Kahoko said somehow happy.

I pulled myself away from her but then she stopped me by slowly wrapping her arms around my neck. I froze at her actions.

"Say you're jealous", she ordered with a smile.

"I am not", I said after I found my voice.

"Come on Len".

"Who are you and what did you do to Kahoko?", I asked the girl in front of me.

Kahoko removed her hands from my neck and laid it lazily on her sides. "You started it. Are you okay?", she asked returning back to normal yet her face was still flushed.

"No"

"Why? I'll help you"

"Is that what you wanted to say? You and Kaji are engaged?", I said groaning inside my head.

"Not really, but that's a part of it. Aoi and I are in a relationship", she grinned.

I remained silent.

"Well… here's the thing. You got it all wrong", she said shaking her head.

I blinked. The mind over matter thingy is real?

"Aoi and I are friends and it'll stay like that forever. We only pretended to be because there was a girl who was stalking him". She raised her hand and added, "No ring, see?".

I stared at her hands and there's definitely no ring. Nothing.

"Okay, I'm satisfied…", I said. Then I noticed that I haven't lifted myself away Kahoko. I felt my cheeks get hot.

I moved myself only to be stopped by Kahoko again. She held my polo shirt tightly. "What?", I asked, though I somehow like the fact that she wants me close.

"You were jealous", Kahoko mumbled.

"So?"

"You're admitting it?", she asked surprised.

"So?"

Kahoko blushed again.

"You're the only person who can disturb my heart this way… only person who can make me crazy", I confessed. It came to my mouth naturally and I didn't mess up… I hope she understands.

"I make you crazy?", Kahoko asked, terrified.

I wanted to laugh. "Don't worry, I'll recover once I see you", I said. I removed her hands from me and stood up.

I saw Kahoko sighed.

"I'm sleepy, good night", I said and went inside my room and lay on my bed. I'm somehow happy.

~Kahoko's POV~

Wait… was that a confession? I shook my head and stared at Len's bedroom door which was closed. But what he said made my heart race… I can't calm down and… KAHOKO WHAT DID YOU JUST DO? YOU JUST FLIRTED WITH HIM! But he started it… yet I played with him…

I didn't know that Len can be dangerous!

Okay calm down. Did he mean it or was he only entertaining me? Wait, it's a bit weird to know that Len is entertaining me… but it's already weird enough to know that Len can be a wolf.

~Yuu's POV~

I walked at the park and saw Sakura sitting on one of the bench. Her head keeps on moving, looking around. I walked closer to her and said, "You came". She got surprised.

She moved and patted the space beside her, telling me to sit. "You told me to come here though it's already late".

"Yeah, I did", I said and handed her a bottle of orange juice. I took a sip from mine.

"Why?", she asked me while trying to open the bottle.

"I have something to say", I said and took the bottle from her. I opened it with one twist.

"What is it?". she took the bottle from me and took a sip.

I took something out from my pocket and gave it to her. She took it and observed it. She noticed that it was two pieces that were stuck together. She took each other away and the two pieces glow a dim light. "What are these?", she asked as she stared at it.

"Magnets", I answered.

She looked at me and then said, "First you made bracelets out of magnets, now this. You like magnets too much".

I nodded. "I like them. They attract each other when they're close but those aren't the same as regular magnets. Sarah made them for me. No matter how far you take them apart they end up coming together. And they don't attract to other magnets only from each other", I said. I looked at the magnets and took one piece from Sakura's hand. I took another magnet from my pocket. "Look. In the count of three, throw that over there", I said and pointed at her side. I counted and we both threw the two magnets from opposite directions except from the magnet I just got from my pocket, I threw it upward not too high.

The magnets started coming back at a fast velocity, both glowing brightly. The other magnet got close to the magnet I threw upward but it didn't stop there. In a moment both magnets stick together and it glowed brighter then it slowly dimmed. The magnets fell on Sakura's lap while the regular magnet fell back on my hand.

"Wow…", she looked at the magnet I was holding and tried sticking it to the two other magnets but it won't have contact. "And it was glowing. What are they?".

"Sarah said it's a love magnet. She decided to call it that because once you set it on for two people, for example the other magnet is Len and the other Kahoko, they end up together. But it depends on the couple, if the couple is really incompatible it won't work", I said. She lifted the magnets up.

She tilted her head on her side and asked, "How will you know if they're compatible?".

"They stick together and won't attract to other magnets. The color it glows determines their situation, I think", I answered.

"You think?". She looked at me.

"Sarah didn't explain it much to me. I think if the magnets glow brown; it means that they still don't know each other. If it glows black or gray, their relationship is not in a good position… they had a fight, didn't like each other or something related. Orange, when they're starting to have a crush on the other, Yellow when both are starting to get along, Green, jealousy, pink is when they realize that they love their partner. For blue and purple, I see it glow when Len was far from Kahoko, maybe it's when they miss their partner. I don't know what the meaning is when the glow is dim or bright", I said. I took the magnets and saw it both glowing pink but the other one glowed near to red.

"The other one is red", Sakura pointed.

"Maybe one of them confessed… I bet it was Len", I said smiling. But how? Oh well, at least he managed to say it.

"Oh! Good for them!", Sakura said with a smile.

"It took a while to turn pink. I thought that it won't turn pink at first but since it was glowing orange, it meant that they were meant for each other".

I gave the magnets to Sakura. "I'm leaving it to you; I want you to have it", I said as I hand it to her.

Sakura pushed it back to me and shook her head. "No. It's from your Sarah, I can't have it", she said seriously.

"I'm serious, take it. I want you to have it", I said. I opened her hand and laid the magnets there then closed her hand.

"But-"

"Please have it…"

~Sakura's POV~

He can't just give me something precious! "But–"

"Please have it…", he said, his voice trailing off. I ended up taking it because of his expression. He looked like he lost something… he was bothered by something…

"Are you sure?", I asked still unsure whether to accept the magnets on my hands.

I saw him nod and gave me a smile. His smile didn't reach his eyes.

He suddenly laid his head on my shoulder. He held my hand tightly. "I'm planning on something… and I'll be using you…", he whispered.
