Ryoko – Welcome, to the next chapter of…..

Rima – Bittersweet Romance! –Emotionlessly mutters 'whoohoo'-

Ryoko – Anyways, I should shut up now, I think this chapter won't be interesting…

Rima – I'm a mind reader, Yay!

Ryoko – OOH! WHAT AM I THINKING?

Rima – You are thinking… -twitches- This chapter will be boring unless you make me and Nagihiko kiss… -twitch-

Ryoko – You're good! ^^ Oh and, I don't write points of views, because I trust you will understand who's perspective it is written in. Previously, I've only used normal perspectives, but I think I'm going to travel into the minds of the characters now. Like… make it interesting… it might be a little confusing though, so… In this chapter, it switches from Rima's perspective, to Nagihiko's perspective, then back to Rima's. It'll be separated by a line like the one below~!

Rima – I am OOC in this…

I blushed furiously as Nagihiko hugged me. I looked down at Nadeshiko, who lay motionlessly on the ground her basket of goodies scattered everywhere. Now if only Koneko woke up, that would make my day oh so much better. Koneko's eyes fluttered open. Crud, spoke too soon…

"What are you two doing!?" Koneko screamed.

"Um?" I tried.

"Um isn't a word Mashiro!" Koneko roared. "GET YO HANDS OFF MA NAGEH!"

"Since when did you turn gangsta?" I replied.

"GET YO HANDS OFF OF MA NAGEH!" she repeated.

"Wow… girls fighting over me is funny…" Nagihiko snickered. I glared at him and he let go of me.

"Yeah, you better let go…" I hissed.

"Riiiimmaaaa-chaaaaaaaan!" Nagihiko whined putting on a puppy dog face.

'Ugh… fine… sorry Nagi!" I said rolling my eyes.

Now if this wasn't real life and it was in some anime, Nagi would've been sitting on the bed with some bright blue sparkly and glittery background, his eyes sparkling – like they were now –, and in the background would be the words 'Kira Kira attack!' Nagihiko hugged me like a giant teddy bear and acted so childish. I rolled my eyes and attempted to breathe properly.

"Na-gi-hi-KO!" I rasped. "Fif-teen-year-olds-don't-squeeze-their-room-mates-to-death!"

"Riiiimmaaaa-chaaaaaaaan!" Nagi whined again.

"What!?" I snarled.

"At least say happy birthday to me!" Nagihiko whined.

I looked at the floor where Nadeshiko was laying motionless. I looked back over at Nagi, and then back at Nadeshiko. I stood up and walked over to my coat. I pulled out a small tube, and a container then walked back over to Nagihiko. I opened the container and pulled out a piece of paper and a sticker. I handed Koneko a sheet of pink paper, and Nagihiko a blue one.

"Nagihiko, look that way…" I commanded.

"Fine," Nagihiko replied. "What do I do with this paper?"

"You'll see!" I said, and dragged Koneko out of the room with Nadeshiko – who had just woken up.

"What is it Rima-chan?" Nadeshiko asked.

"Happy birthday!" I smiled.

"Thank you," Nadeshiko replied.

"You're sixteen now?" I asked.

"Yeah," Nadeshiko replied.

"I'm still fifteen," I said. "Since it's Nagihiko's birthday too,"

"LET'S MAKE IT THE WORST DAY OF HIS LIFE!" Nadeshiko and I shouted.

"What about the best?" Koneko suggested. "We could go to da bar… ketchup wit doze da–"

"NO!" Nadeshiko and I said sternly.

"Fail gangsta talk!" Nadeshiko giggled, attempting a gangster tone.

"Anyways… this is what we'll do!" I said. Then I whispered to the girls.

"I LOVE YOU RIMA-CHAN!" Nadeshiko squealed.

"I LOVE YOU RIMA-CHAN!" I heard my sister squeal. I rolled my eyes.

I wonder what those three are up to… first they completely ditch me leaving me with this blue piece of paper, and then my sister squeals that she loves Rima. Those girls MUST be up to something evil. I stood up and walked around the room. I noticed Rima dragged Koneko and her own suitcases with her. All three of them, as in all three of the suitcases, not all three of whatever you might have been thinking – which I know not of. Plus they cleared out the closet.

I heard the door creak open, and I saw a girl with long silver – nearly white with a extremely pale metallic purple streak – hair part of it braided back, held with a star shaped yellow clip peeked in. She looked around, and when she spotted me, she frowned. I noticed she had eyes the same shade as her streak, and her eyes were quite narrow. Not as narrow as Ikuto, but narrow enough that you can clearly see the difference between Rima-chan and her. Rima-chan's eyes were like 2 times bigger. Ooh, why do I notice these things?

"Hi," she said shyly.

"Hi," I smiled.

"Er, sorry, I guess I went into the wrong dorm," she said blushing.

"Oh god, another major blusher…" I muttered under my breath.

"What was that?" she asked bringing her kimono sleeve up to her mouth to chew on.

"Nothing," I said smiling – in a way that some people consider seductive but I consider sweet.

"Oh, my name is Yumekuryo Yuka," she said as she walked closer.

"Hello Yume-chan, is it okay if I call you that?" I asked.

"Hai," she smiled. Her eyes narrowed a little bit and said. "I saw three of what I think might be your friends on the way in,"

"Yes… and Nadeshiko, my sister…" I hissed.

"Oh, she looked so pretty!" Yume smiled. "She had her hair up in a split ponytail!"

"What's a split ponytail?" I asked dumbly.

"A ponytail… that's split into two ponytails after the one ponytail…" Yume explained.

"Makes no sense…" I replied.

"Okay, so like this, tie your hair up into a ponytail, the divide your hair into two sections. Finally, take a clip, and horizontally clip it so your hair splits into a ponytail that comes out on both sides, yet appears like a normal ponytail!" Yume said.

"Oh, okay… I get it now…" I said feeling embarrassed I had no idea what that was.

"A dream that I want to see come true before my eyes… is a dream that concludes in happiness for the ones I love…" Yume said in a musical tune. Before I could ask her what she meant, this happened…

"YUKA-SENPAI!?" Rima screamed running in.

"How many times have I told you Rima-chan? Call me Yuka-chan or Yume-chama!" Yume said lightly patting Rima's head.

"Is that like a notice that you're here for Rima-chan?" I asked.

"Yeah… sort of…" Yume-chan replied.

I looked at what Rima was wearing and frowned. She was wearing a bright orange Chinese feminine fighter styled outfit with yellow flower-like designs, and nun chucks strapped to her legs. Her hair was up in two buns very little hair was let loose to dangle from the buns. Rima hugged Yume tightly and then frowned slightly.

"Nagihiko…" Rima purred playing with my hair – making Yume snicker.

"Yeah?" I asked trying not to pay attention to her.

"Wanna go hang out with me, your sister, and Neko?" she asked.

"Hmm…" I muttered.

"Please?" she hissed forcefully.

"Uh, okay…" I replied quickly.

"Hmm… Nagi… can Yume-chama come toooo? Or do you only want it to be us…. alone…?" Rima muttered seductively into my ear.

"Yume-chan can come!" I replied.

"I'm glad I didn't have to use my nun chucks Nagi…" Rima smirked.

"Hey, does this mean you forgive me?" I asked.

"NO!" Rima replied sharply and started to hit me with her nun chucks.

Nagihiko agreed to hang out with Koneko, me, and Nadeshiko. Oh, yeah, and Yume-chama… too bad he has no idea what's in store for him! HAHAHA-HAHAHAHA!! I started to cough from laughing evilly in my mind, and Nagihiko quickly started to attempt and stop my coughing. I glared at him.

"You think you're all that!" I hissed.

"I know you do Rima-chan," he replied smirking.

"Hehehe…" I smiled.

"Anyways…" Nagihiko started.

"Hmmm?" I asked.

"Where are we hanging out?" he asked smiling.

"The shopping mall…" I said smiling oh so evilly. Nagihiko stared at me in horror.
