CHAPTER 2

"Yea, I'm fine. Just tried to drink too much water," I said to cover up my slip.

"The whole school is looking for that person. Remember what happened to the last person who messed with the Trio?" Sako said.

"What happened to them?" I asked.

"They were attacked by the whole school after they were declared as an enemy of Trio. The person dropped out of school. It was incredibly bad," Sako said.

"How horrible! What did that person do to Trio?" I asked.

"The boy bumped into Tatsuya Ikoto and got some food on his shoe," replied Ichin.

"Well what would you two do if you found out who got water on them?" I asked hoping that they would not respond with the answer of turning the person in.

"I would give them a pat on the back and tell them how awesome they are for doing something so daring," Ichin and Sako replied together.

I was right in becoming friends with these two guys. Although I still didn't want to tell them that I was the culprit, I was happy from their answer. The only person who knows that I was the one who poured water on them was the boy on the roof. I didn't know that those two boys were Tatsuya and Kenta. Speaking of which, if those two were part of Trio, then who is Yuuta Notishi?

"Hey guys so I actually haven't seen what Trio looks like yet. Who exactly are they?"

After school was over I quickly met with Ichin and Sako to see Trio. We ran to the front of the school and waited near where the cars were waiting. As three boys walked out of the school many girls and boys swarmed around them. The girls were swooning and the boys were saying how cool the group was.

"That's Trio," said Sako. "The one with black hair that's kinda short is Tatsuya Ikoto, the one with the longer brown hair is Kenta Hanazawa, and the one with messy brown hair is Yuuta Notishi."

CRAP! The boy on the roof was Yuuta Notishi. How could I have been so stupid? As the boys passed by, Yuuta looked at me and smirked. Oh no! I really hope he isn't going to tell them that I was the one who poured water on them! I was freaking out inside and had to leave or everything would show.

"Sorry guys, but I have to go," I said as I ran to my bike and quickly rode away after unlocking it. I rode around town just to get my mind off of school. I thought my sense of direction was really good, but I guess it wasn't good enough. I got lost and had to call Yuki to get directions back to the house.

The next day I ran to the roof during lunch. I had to make sure that Yuuta wouldn't tell the others that I was the one they were looking for. Each step was taunting me on the way up that of course he would tell on me. Why would he not tell his friends? The breeze blew into my face as I opened the door and stepped into the sunlight.

I looked to my right and nothing, but as I looked to my left I could feel a pair of eyes on me. There he was sitting against the wall. I walked straight up to him and said, "You knew it was me yet you didn't tell them yet. Why?"

He looked away from me and said, "It isn't my business."

"Wait, so are you or are you not going to tell them that it was me? Just so you know, I really had no idea who I was dumping the water on," I said to Yuuta without fear. I figured that even if he was going to tell that I would be able to survive everything they would throw at me. I wasn't the 3rd best kick boxer in the US for nothing. Since I was 8 years old I have been kick boxing and gained much pain tolerance along with amazing fighting skills. Bring on the martial arts lets duel it out and see who would win. If a sushi and a hamburger got in a fight who would win? Yup you know it. The hamburger all the way!

"I don't really like getting involved in these sorts of things," he said and quickly glanced at me before looking away again.

Well it seems like he isn't going to tell, but just in case… "Ok well if you do tell them, and I will know it was you since you are the only other person that knows, I will hunt you down. Don't take that lightly, I'm not one of these helpless Japanese girls that are about as strong as a twig." After that I stalked off the roof with my head high in the air. I would make sure that I wasn't going to be the only one that would suffer if things get bad. I know that he is really good at martial arts, but he doesn't seem like the type of guy that would hit a girl and I would use that to my advantage.

I was in a better mood now that I was more confident about the situation. So I walked down the hallway singing All Star by Smash Mouth. I passed some girls that looked at me funny but I just walked by without paying them any notice. When I got to my classroom I was at "I need to get myself away from this place." The teacher was in the room and of course he understood English, so he gave me a mean look but stopped when he realized that it was just a song from my continuous singing. I stopped singing once I reached my desk though and smiled as I finished the song in my head.

"Thank you for the English demonstration Ms. Jones," said the teacher.

"Well now that you mention it, when I was in French class back in the States we would listen to French music to help us improve. I could supply you with some English music if you would like to try the same thing." I was pretty sure that he wouldn't accept the offer since he was very strict and I was right. He did suggest that the students listen to music in English to improve their skills though.

The girls that sat behind me asked me if I had much Brittney Spears music.

"Are you kidding? She is such a slut! I don't listen to her music, it kills brain cells. I do have one Lady Gaga song, but that is as far as I am willing to go in that direction of music. My taste is more in the Shiny Toy Guns, Muse, and Death Cab for Cutie direction. Although I highly doubt that you guys would ever listen to that kind of music though. Sorry." Then I turned around. They were whispering about me and I know it wasn't good things. See if I care.

After school I saw Sako and Ichin getting ready to leave. "Sako! Ichin! Hey guys. So I have something planned for tomorrow morning. It's getting kinda boring and we have to spice it up. Are you in?"

"Yea, why not?" Sako said.

"Definitely!" said Ichin.

"Ok then here's the plan. Get here 30 minutes earlier than you usually do. We will meet by the lockers. Here's the plan…" Of course we were a ways from the school by then. I also made sure nobody was nearby that could hear the plan and rat us out.

The next morning we snuck through the school hoping that no one would be there. As we crept into classroom 3C we looked around for the desks that were our targets. I had made the notes in my bedroom last night so that not even my host siblings would know. We quickly slipped the pieces of paper into the three desks and stole quietly out of the room. So that we would not seem suspicious of being here so early we didn't take our bikes today and we went on the roof to wait until more people arrived.

AN: I hope you like the story so far.
