Welcome back! We continue with Kohaku as he stares at Mio(making her very uncomfortable) I will change around P.O.V.s but I had to go with Mio's for a while. So... ON WITH DA STORY!
DISCLAIMER: I DON'T OWN ANYTHING BUT THE PLOT, KYOKO/BLISS, MIO/BLAZE, KENSHIN/BRANDON, KOHAKU/BURN, AND MASARU/ BEAR!(Do I even own him? Hmmm...)
-Kohaku's P.O.V.-
So, her name's Mio, huh? Pretty. 'Hehe. She'll be fun to mess with.'I grinned to myself. I thought about this morning, replaying the events in my mind...
I was walking alone before I was to go to my first day of school. 'Geez, why did Brick just suddenly make us go to school? Dude's so annoying.'I wasn't watching where I was going and bumped into a girl, causing her to drop her stuff. I bent down and helped her pick her stuff up.
I found a little box of matches and picked those up too, confused. I was positive they hadn't been there before. 'Unless... they're...but...Why would she have these?'
"Sorry, sorry, I wasn't looking. Oh, um, thanks for helping me pick up my stuff." She stood up, checked if she dropped anything else, then smiled shyly at me.
She had straight reddish cherry-cola-colored hair that went to her waist in a side braid and amber gold eyes. Her bangs covered her right eye entirely, and I wanted to look at that eye too, but it was covered and I guessed me brushing her bangs away wouldn't be appreciated. Especially by the raven-haired and silver-haired girls, who were glaring daggers at me for just talking to the girl I bumped into. She was the shortest out of her friends, about 5.8" maybe? She wore a black v-neck shirt with flames printed on the hem, a red jacket, dark blue skinny jeans, high-top gold sneakers, a gold necklace that said 'Flames', and a particular-looking belt with a gold 'P' on it.
"Now why would a cute girl like you have these in her bag?" I held up the matches. Her eyes widened, affirming my suspicion they were hers. She blushed, probably due to the 'cute girl' part. It had slipped out before I could stop it, and I was a little embarrassed, to tell the truth, but I refused to blush. 'She's cute when she blushes'
"N-none of your business! Give them back!" She held out her hand.
I held the matches out of her reach. " Not until you tell me why you have them, sugar." Again, the 'sugar' part totally un-meant, just slipped out. She blushed more, then sighed.
She whipped around and kicked me in the stomach. I doubled over. 'Damn, she's little but she can KICK! Ow...'She grabbed the matches and ran to her raven- haired friend, hopped on her back, and they rode away on her skateboard. The redhead (orange)whispered something in the silver haired girl's ear. Silver nodded and disappeared into an alley, and the three other girls ran off towards the escaping girls.
Suddenly I was alone. I stood up straight, feeling like someone was watching me. I wanted to follow the mysterious girl and her strangely extremely prepared friends, but knew I shouldn't. The silver and raven haired would kill me, and I'm guessing the other girls would help. I left in the other direction, but not before finding a lone match from the box on the ground. I picked it up and put it in my pocket. Then I left, knowing I'll have a sneaker-shaped bruise on my stomach tomorrow.
Mio turned around just as I finished thinking. She was blushing a little, I think.
"Uh...um... could you...um... stop staring at my back? I think you're lazoring holes in my shoulder blades." she said shyly.
I laughed and she smiled. "Okay, sure. But can I see your schedule?"
"Hm? Why?" She looked confused. 'And very cute.' I thought.
"So I can see what classes we have together, spark."
"That's a new one. And here." She laughed and gave me her schedule.
"I think I'm gonna call you that. Spark." I said, comparing our schedules.
"What's wrong with my real name?" She laughed.
"Nothing, really. But I like Spark, fits you better." I handed her her schedule.
"So?"
"So what?"
"What classes do we have together?"She looked at me like I was crazy for forgetting.
"All of them, spark."
"You do realize if Usagi-chan hears you say that, she'll murder you." Mio said, pointing at her sister in purple.
"Why?"
"Because she calls me that too. She hates getting copied."
"Hmmmmm... them how about Cherry?"
"Cherry?" She looked curious, kind of like she was trying to remember something.
"Yea, why not? Your hair kinda looks like a cherry."
"Mmmm... okay." She looked a little nostalgic.
"You okay?"
"What? Oh! I'm, um, fine. um..." She blushed.
I laughed at her getting all shy and embarrassed suddenly. She smiled shyly back at me.
'I'm gonna like this year...'
-Kenshin's P.O.V.-
I sat behind Kyoko. She had silver hair that was cut short with two long strips in front and unnerving, piercing grey eyes. She wore a gray tank top under a wrapped black and white sweater,grey skinny jeans, a silver bracelet, and short black boots. She had that expression that said 'I'm calculating the most torturous way to kill all of you, don't mess with me'. I stared at her back; she didn't seem to either notice or care enough to turn around. 'Probably the latter.'I thought.
I decided to peek into her mind to see what she was most people, there are 3 levels of the mind: general knowledge, memories, secrets and fears are together. General knowledge is floating around randomly, memories are locked behind a door, and secrets and fears are either heavily guarded or left with a locked door.
I tried to see general knowledge, but the door to knowledge was locked. I was surprised. I was about to pick the lock into general knowledge when Kyoko whipped around and glared at me. I stopped immediately. She narrowed her eyes at me and glared for a while longer before turning around again.
'Don't try that again.'I hear in my head. Not my voice. Hers?
'What just happened? Did she sense me? No way did she sense it... or did she? And did she just talk to me? In ESP? No way... Even Ican't do that yet...'
-Kyoko's P.O.V.-
No way. No fucking way. No way did he just try to read my mind. No way. 'But I know what getting your mind looked into feels like, and that was it.'
I shook my head. I'll talk to the girls after school. Because if I'm right, we can't be friends. I look at my sisters. Momoko is glaring at Akira, Kaoru is arguing with Jirou, Usagi is trying to ignore(by fidgeting nervously) Masaru's unnerving stare, Miyako is paying attention, so is Mamoru, and Kohaku and Mio are talking about... nicknames? I sighed. 'I can't believe the teacher hasn't noticed yet...'
Then the bell rang for lunch.
The end of chapter 3! Hooray! I made it! I agree with Kyoko, I am surprised that the teacher can ignore that much noise and 8 students talking in the back. Next time, the girls will give the boys their tour around the school. See you then! And... K THX BAI!
