~Part Two~
_ . _ . _ . _ . _
Fujimori Middle School
Meanwhile, at Akira's school, there was as new student as well.
"Say hello to Kanzaku, Rui, everyone!" said the teacher, as a fifteen year old girl smiled at the entire class.
"Hi there, everyone~!" she said, beaming at everyone once the teacher introduced her, "I'm Kanzaku Rui, and I just moved here!" she said cheerfully, "Please take good care of me!" she said, with a bow.
"Now then, Kanzaku-kun... How about you sit... Ah, there's an open seat next to Sakamoto-kun," he said, seeing a seat next to Akira, "Sakamoto-kun, could you raise your hand, please?" he said.
"Yes, sir!" said Akira, as he raised his hand...
A few seats over, Suzuki was looking kind of pale...
"Hey! Suzu! What's wrong?" whispered X, tilting his head slightly.
Which caught Rui's attention. She blinked once, twice, as she stood next to her seat...
"Suzuki?" she asked, blinking, "Are you really Suzuki-kun?" she said, looking at him curiously...
"Wait... You know Suzuki?" "Suzuki, you know Kanzaku-san?" said Tanaka and Akira at the same time.
"Uh... Yes?" said Suzuki, while Rui answered with: Possibly...
Kanzaku Shinichi
Oh man~! I'm getting nervous~! I thought, as I paced outside the classroom, waiting for the teacher to call me in.
Ooh~ I should have taken Rui up on her offer -she would have been so much comfort right now... I thought, before the teacher called my name, sounding a bit exasperated, as if he had called it a few times, and I gasped.
"I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed, as I stumbled in, in such a hurry to open the door and answer the teacher, that I tripped on my own feet.
"Ah-Ah-!" I stumbled, but luckily, I caught myself, and didn't trip and make as much of a fool of myself as I could have.
"Aha...ha...ha... Sorry about that!" I said to the teacher, before I was told to introduce myself, "Uh, well... I... Uhm... I'm Kanzaku Shinichi... Nice to meet you!" I said, smiling at them all.
There was a bit of a silence, and I looked up quizzically, to see their stares.
What? Was there something on my face...? I thought...
"Ahem!" said the teacher, clearing his throat, "I'll be going now, Sakamoto-san, please take care of Kanzaku-san, now," he said, before leaving the classroom.
"Eh?" I blinked, turning to watch the teacher leave.
Wait... WHAT?
He was going to leave me along to these... these people? I thought, starting to panic, wishing I had taken Rui's advice after all...
Wah~! Rui! I cried mentally...
Elsewhere
A certain female at Fujimori Middle School sneezed, "A-tchoo!" she exclaimed.
"Rui-san, are you alright?" asked the boy beside her.
She smiled, "I'm fine, Akira -must be my brother," she muttered afterwords, sighing...
Sakamoto Harumi
"Eh?" the new boy blinked, turning to stare wide-eyed at the teacher, as if his last life-line had just disappeared.
He looked nervous, well, I could understand, but... I had to admit, he didn't look so bad... In fact, if I had to say anything, I'd say he had looks equal to that of my own family -well, except for Akira, of course! No one could replace my precious Akira~! I thought, a blissful look on my face.
"Sakamoto-sama -er, san... Sakamoto-san!" whispered one of the three stooges.
"Eh?" I blinked, shaking myself out of my thoughts, as I looked over, startled.
He pointed to Shinichi, who looked like he was about to cry...
Wait... I knew that look! It was the same look I had on when I thought about my brother!
"Ahem!" I stood, walking over, "Uhm... I'm Harumi," I said, introducing myself since he didn't seem to have been paying attention when the teacher had been speaking, "Sakamoto Harumi," I said, smiling, "Nice to meet you, Shinichi -is it alright if I call you Shinichi?" I asked, frowning.
"Eh? Oh, yeah -yeah, it's alright!" he said, smiling at me, and I blinked -did people feel this way when me or my family smiled...? I thought.
"Uhm, yeah. Anyways, since we have free period now, do you want me to start showing you around school?" I asked, a bit curiously.
"Oh, yeah! That'd be great, thanks!" he said, grinning.
"Great!" I said, as we walked out of the room -the stupid 'guard detail' following behind...
Did they seriously think I could see them sneaking around behind us...? I thought, sweating.
Apparently Kanzaku thought the same thing, "Uhm... Don't look now, but, uhm, you have stalkers..." he whispered.
I looked over apologetically, "Sorry, it's the stupid 'guard detail'," I said sheepishly.
He nodded, giving me an understanding look. "Oh, I know how that is," he said, "I used to have one too," he told me sheepishly. "Gets kind of annoying, though," he said.
I nodded, "Right?"
We grinned. I could tell we were going to get along quite well...
Lunch Period
Kanzaku Shinichi, and Sakamoto Harumi sat on a low wall, eating lunch, and talking.
They laughed, as they shared stories, understanding each other quite well. Luckily, no one bothered them -or rather, they couldn't.
The two of them, the most handsome people in the school now, had a kind of godly aura that the others couldn't compare to, which just wouldn't let them get close to them.
But they watched on nonetheless, thanking the gods to be born in such an era of manly beauty...
"No way, seriously?" exclaimed Harumi, "You have younger siblings too?"
"Yeah," said Shinichi, grinning, "Rui is the closest to me, she's probably about your brother's age," he admitted, "After her, are Sakura and Ken," he said, "And they're in elementary," he said.
"Really?" said Harumi, "I have three younger siblings, too! Akira, who you already know is in middle school, and Fuyuki, who's in elementary school -oh, and Natsuru, my younger sister -she goes to an all girl's academy," he said, in a way that said he didn't really care about her as much as he did the other two.
"Haha!" said Kanzaku, "Wow, I guess we had more in common than we thought!" he said, grinning.
"Yeah," said Harumi, "It's like we're twins apart or something!" he said, grinning.
"Yeah..."
There was a bit of silence after the sighs they both let out, then.
"This is nice..." said Harumi, "It's like we're friends already," he said, grinning, as he looked over at his new -and currently only- friend.
Shinichi smiled, "I know, right?" he said.
More silence.
"I... guess this makes us friends, then?" said Harumi, though the statement came out more of a question.
"Yeah, I guess... I mean, I've never really had real friends, servants and the like, maybe, but..."
"Oh, I know what you mean," said Harumi, "It's been like that for me, too," he said.
They grinned...
After school, the two walked together. Not actually saying where they lived, until they were within eye-sight of their houses.
"Ah, there is it is-" they said at the same time before staring.
"You..." "No way..." they said at the same time.
"We live right next door to each other?" they exclaimed, staring between the house and each other, catching each other's eyes every time they looked towards each other...
"Well... That was... awkward," commented Harumi dryly after a while.
Shinichi nodded mutely, "I know..."
"Right?" they said together again and grinned.
"Oh! Onii-chan~!" called Rui as she and Akira got closer.
"Rui!" exclaimed Shinichi, just as Harumi called Akira.
"..." The two older boys stared at each other, as their younger siblings stared between their older brothers, and exchanged a look.
"...That was..."
"Weird, yes, we know," said Shinichi, finishing his sister's sentence.
"Akira..."
"Harumi..."
"..." there was dead silence that stretched for a while, before random chatterings broke out, and they paused again, as if deciding what would eb right to say first.
"...Well..."
"That was..."
"Weird...?"
"Definately," nodded Rui.
"So... did you know we live next door to the Sakamotos/Kanzakus?" they all asked at once.
"Yeah, I found out during school-" "-No, we found out just now-" they said at once, and paused again.
"Ok... Uh... how about we go into our house first, to talk?" asked Rui, starting to get annoyed at this.
"Uhm... we can go to our house?" said Akira, "I don't think Mom would mind, and I'm sure you're not all done unpacking everything yet," he pointed out.
Rui and Shinichi exchanged a glance, and Rui shrugged.
"Sure." "Yeah, sounds great" they said around the same time.
"Cool," said Akira, as they walked towards the Sakamoto house together...
