3 - The spore and his sister
Rei Hino walked into the closed bar, her hips swinging to the sides as she walked. Her long, black hair dancing behind her. Her violet eyes smiling at the tall blonde head she spotted behind the counter.
"Hi there" she greeted.
The blonde looked up "Hey! Didn't expected you to come so early"
She smiled sweetly at her friend.
She wasn't really planing on coming to pay him a visit. Not yet anyway. But her friend had canceled their shopping day at the last minute, so she was left with nothing to do.
And seeing him was always a good thing. Not that she would let him know that...
Not yet, anyway.
She took a seat at one of the booths, and then she turned around, towards the small stage at the back of the room. There was a band playing. Actually, they were practicing. And they sounded really good. As they always did.
"They're playing tonight?" she asked him, pointing with her head to the band.
"Yeah" he answered "I finally managed to convinced that stupid girl" he said, pointing to the young blonde woman sitting right behind the black and white keys of the piano.
She was arguing with a tall, long black haired young man.
Rei smiled at that "And what are they arguing about this time?"
"Who knows" he answered "It's amazing they still haven't killed each other"
"Well, they have the weirdest love-hate friendship ever" Rei said, an amused smile on her pretty face "What I don't understand is why she won't just join the band for good instead of just playing with them every once in a while"
He chuckled at her "And that, my dear, is just one of the many wonders of Haruka"
"Are you talking shit about me behind my back, you Spore?" came a deep, husky voice behind him.
"Spore? You're calling me spore?" he asked, faking indignation "I'm the one who's been putting up with you for the last twenty three years here!"
"That's not accurate" the blonde woman said "You moved out like, what? A year ago? So that makes it..."
"You know what I mean" he argued, interrupting her and rolling his green eyes.
"Oh, you're just jealous because mom likes me better" Haruka joked.
"Ok, you two, knock it off!" Rei exclaimed, rolling her eyes "Geez, you are worst than children!"
"She started it!" he exclaimed.
"Jadeite, sweetie, hon" Rei said, looking at him with an annoyed expression on her face "You're starting it again" she let out a sigh, but then she smiled "Anyway, I just came to say hi, and to let you know I'm bringing some friends tonight"
"Really?" he asked, smiling now "Hot ones, I hope?"
Rei glared at him, raising an eyebrow.
Haruka chuckled "And then he wanders why you never dated him" she said, looking at Rei.
"Anyway" Rei started to say, deciding to ignore the comment "I ran into an old friend of mine this morning, and I told her about this little place of yours. So, she's coming with me. And you better be nice to her" she warned him, but then she looked at the tall blonde woman "You too!"
"Me? I'm always nice!" she defended herself.
"Ignoring people does not qualify as being nice" Rei pointed out.
The blonde woman shook her shoulders "Not my fault if you two are surrounded by boring people" she mumbled.
"Sure, whatever" the black haired woman said, rolling her eyes "Ok, I'm off. See you guys tonight!"
She waved her hand to her friends, and left the bar, leaving behind two blondes staring after her.
"You know? You really should stop acting like the biggest jerk ever, and ask her out already" Haruka said, smirking at him "You know you want to"
"It's not that simple" he answered her, rubbing his eyes with one hand.
She frowned at him, her green eyes focused on the counter "Would you go out with me?" she asked, as if practicing a line "How about some dinner?" she added. And then she looked up at him again "Hey! It's not that hard!" she exclaimed.
"What's not hard?" came a voice form behind her.
She turned around, and rolled her eyes at the tall black haired man.
"Non of your business, Kou" but then she looked at Jadeite, and an evil smile came to her lips "But since you asked nicely... I was giving my dear old brother here some advices on how to ask a girl out"
He smiled at her "A girl? Or Rei?" he asked, successfully making Jadeite embarrassed.
It was no secret that the tall blonde man had a thing for the black haired beauty. And it was no secret that he was perfectly able to woo any girl he wanted, but the black haired beauty. Not because he couldn't, but simply because, for some strange reason that non of them understood, he simply didn't.
"Don't listen to her, Jad. What could she possibly know? I'm the one to look for advice here"
"And that is because...?" she asked, waving her hand.
"Because I can have any girl I want" he simply stated.
"Not any girl" she smiled at him proudly, arching her back and puffing out her breasts, her loose shirt, unbuttoned at her cleavage, getting tight around her breasts.
"You're not a girl, Tenoh" he said to her, smirking now "You're just one of the guys, but instead of a dick, you have tits"
"Sure I am" she said, waving her hand at him and completely dismissing the comment.
"You know, the only reason I let him hang around with you, is because he promised he wouldn't get into your pants" Jadeite said, with a proud smile on his face.
Haruka frowned at him "Not that I'm complaining about him not trying anything on me, 'cause really, so not the case here! But... are you being protective over me?" she asked "Since when?"
"Since you developed the weird ability to always end up with all the bad ones" he answered, before turning around and getting the alcohol bottles out of the boxes and into their place at the bar.
"Excuse me?" the black haired man ask, indignant.
Haruka just laughed.
