Chapter III: SMALL TALK
"So."
"… … … …"
"So."
*cough**cough*
"……"
"……"
(A/N: someone talk damn it! The tension's killing me!!!)
"K-Kana-chan!"
"Ma-Mamori-san!"
"You first!!"
"You first!!"
(A/N: God, this is pathetic….)
The two both giggled at their pathetic-ness, uh, I mean at their similarity. The two were still inside the school infirmary. They both smiled at each other and as a bit of the tension broke, Kana started their conversation;
"Mamori-san, I just wanted to explain things to you." Kana stated.
"Explain?" Mamori wondered.
"Oh!" she exclaimed.
'That's right. Kana-chan came here to….replace me.' Mamori shuddered at the word 'replace'. Did it scare her that much?
"Anyway, remember what I said earlier?" Kana said.
"Umm, yeah." Mamori retorted.
Suddenly, Kana was silenced. The tension was back and it was 10 times more awkward than before. Kana fumbled with her fingers. She knew what she was supposed to say but it seems that she didn't have that much courage to say the words, especially to someone SO much closer to her Hiruma than herself.
When she was about to open her mouth, she felt a soft touch on her hand.(This is not yuri!!!!!)
"Mamori-san…."
Mamori smiled gently at her which gave Kana a wave of refreshment.
"Kana-chan, you don't need to explain." Said Mamori.
'Eh?' Kana wondered. "H-How did…you…"
Mamori winked at her. Kana was startled at her action. Mamori then turned her back once more at Kana.
"Y'know, I wasn't the former Devilbat manager for nothing." She joked, looking back at Kana.
"Well if you really do understand, I want you to listen to me!" Kana pleaded.
"Hiruma-chan, he… he's not as evil as you claim he is!"
Mamori tilted her head in confusion.
"He was thinking of the team. I mean, he might've hurt your feelings but he didn't want to. He didn't mean to. I mean…" Kana was obviously nervous. "I-I mean he didn't want to. Or maybe he did… NO! I mean, no, no, he… um… uhh…uhhh… See, my point here is that he, uhh, he is…Hiruma…"
"…HIRUMA-CHAN IS ACTUALLY NICE!!!"
"HIRUMA-CHAN IS ACTUALLY NICE!!!"
"………"
'Oh no' thought Kana, as she shut her eyes closed. 'If I open my eyes now I'll see a laughing Mamori-san. I just know it!' Kana knew how dumb and corny her words were, calling Hiruma n-i-c-e? If she said it out loud at public place, she would be a laughingstock right now. But Kana took the risk and slowly opened her eyes.
'Here goes it.'
When her eyes were fully opened she was surprised to see a staring Mamori. She looked as though she heard nothing. But then, a smile spread across her lips.
'Uh-oh. She's gonna laugh! I can't take it!!' Kana closed her eyes once again. When her eyelids were about to close, she heard something she would never ever would've expected; a reply.
"I know…"
Kana was startled. 'I know?' She actually agreed with her? This was not according to Kana's calculation. And she said it so coolly, like there was nothing wrong at what she said!
"Kana-chan, even though Hiruma-kun is a little brutal, violent maybe, arrogant at times, a huge idiot, a guy who doesn't know when to stop, a devil that even Satan would be so scared of, A super, mega, miraculously gigantic pain in the—"
"Ma-Mamori-san, your point?" Kana cut Mamori before the cursing started.
"Oh,*ahem* Right…"
"He, he…" Kana giggled at what Mamori's and Hiruma's relationship was that it made Mamori talk like that.
"Even though he's all of those things--"
…………..
"Hiruma-kun's the nicest person in the world!"
Kana's eyes widened with shock. She can't believe that someone besides her shares the belief that Hiruma is nice! She placed her hand on her chin in a thinking-like matter, building up theories in her head.
Mamori smiled as she stared out the window, which showed a clear view of the field and more importantly it showed a clear view of Hiruma. She stared at his serious face but then she giggled as it turned into cackling one.
Meanwhile Kana was still thinking. Even though it was silent, both of them did not feel awkward at all for some reason.
"Anou, Kana-chan, I have to go now. I still have to catch up on stuff. I have been absent for quite a while now. Are you going as well?"
Kana didn't reply. She was still on 'hypothesizing mode'.
"I'll take that as a no." Said Mamori, turning to the door. She was about to exit when—
"Chotto Matte." uttered Kana. Mamori turned to the brunette.
"Hmm?"
Kana inhaled deeply which made Mamori raise a brow. Her next move was going to change their relationship forever. No, her next move was going to change Mamori's and Hiruma's relationship.
Forever.
She raised her finger and glared deeply at Mamori. Mamori could do nothing but anticipate her next move. And as she exhaled, coming out of her mouth were the words;
"Mamori-san!" yelled Kana.
"Ha-hai?" exclaimed Mamori.
"I CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL!"
"E-Eh!?"
"A DUEL TO CATCH HIRUMA'S HEART!!!!"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"…"
"Mamori-san?"
"…"
"Oh…She froze."
*poke**poke*
"..and fainted."
"Ma-mamori-saaaaaaaaaaaannnnn!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
