Lyon: …..
Chapter 6: 5 years ago
Well it was already 3 hours since that little incident that me and Anneliese had. God, I just wish I could kill her, which of course, I can't because it would make me a full time murderer and I don't want that. It was already 10:30 and Anneliese and I were about to go our 3rd period until she decided to stop me by calling my name. I annoying asked, "What Anneliese? What do you want?"
"Look after this 'incident', I realized something." She said surprisingly calm yet had a little tone of cockiness.
"Go on."
"It's obvious that we're both tired of this argument going on and on."
"What's your point exactly?"
"This is what we're going to do to settle this once and for all."
Riena's car.
Fayt's POV (3 hours during school)
As we were driving, there was an awkward silence throughout the car. "So Riena was it?" I asked breaking the silence.
"Yes?" She said.
"Umm what's the relationship between Meru and that blonde girl?"
"Yeah, Meru seemed pretty pissed." Said Edward.
"*sighs* Well that be natural for Meru to be mad- no furious at Anneliese." She said with a slight shiver.
"But I don't get it. What did that girl do to make Meru so mad? I never saw her like this."
"Well, like Meru said earlier, Anneliese…. Well… tried to get intimate with her sister's fiancé along with Yuri's fiancé."
"What?"
"Well, she did put her arms around you which made Meru furious, and have you not heard the way she talked to you?"
"Well yeah, but what this has to do with anything?"
"*sighs* look 5 years ago, Meru and her band was doing her concert, and after the concert things got a little out of hand."
5 years ago -flashback-
Meru's POV
Atarashi biru ga mada
semai sora kezutteku
tate wo kata de hashiru
atarashi kyou hajimaru
I sang to my heart content. Everywhere I looked; people were dancing and smiling to the music. But most of all, I was happy that I was singing with my band. My sister, Miyako, Yuri, Lyon, and Kureno.
A few minutes after the concert was over, Riena, my music manager/producer, suggested that we celebrated our successful concert. Of course Kureno would go to a bar and get drunk and luckily he was trusted enough to leave for the bar, alone. (A/N: if anyone gets this good! Cuz I do not feel like explaining.) Even though I was underage, I surprisingly have a large amount capacity for alcohol; therefore, I just drank wine since it happens to be my favorite drink. My sis, Riena and Yuri drank champagne. As for Lyon, he drank water.
"Lyon, come on, have some champagne. It's not like we're get drunk as a hobo." Yuri said trying to persuade Lyon.
"It's just that I'm worried."
"About what?" Miyako asked coming up to Yuri and Lyon with me.
"You know Ann?"
"Anneliese? Yeah, she's almost going to high school. Why?"
"Well uhhh….?"
"What?" Miyako, Yuri and I said at the same time.
"Before the concert, she… sort of… flirted with me."
"Are you sure? I mean its probably her joking around." I said disbelievingly.
"She bought 5 drinks and tried to... get on with me." He said with a blank face.
We spit out her drinks and yelled, "WHAT?" at the same time.
"I knew there was something about her!" Miyako said.
"I can't believe she did that…" Yuri said about to break her glass cup.
"Ok I knew she was sick and sly and playful, but I did NOT know she was THAT far off of it. Wait, where's big brother Kureno?" I asked worriedly
"Oh no he's at the bar!" Miyako shouted.
"Alright I'm going over there. A good chance that she'll be there."
"I'm coming with you!"
"Nobody messes with my friends and gets away with it." With that we left.
Luckily we made to the bar that Kureno was in. We went inside and tried to look for him.
"Alright Miyako, you go this way and I go that way."
"Ok." With that we split.
After a while, I came to a point where the bartender stand was and there I saw Kureno. With Anneliese! I quickly made my way over there hoping nothing has happened. When walking there, I noticed that Kureno was arguing with her.
"Look, I'm not interested you, so just lay off." He yelled.
"Oh come on, no one is going to know." She said seductively.
"You're sick."
"Come on darling, just once." She wrapped her arms around him.
I stepped in and turn facing to me and slapped her. "Anneliese, what the heck is wrong with you!" I screamed.
"Meru? You did not just slap me." She said ready to slap me back.
"Hands off of my sister's boyfriend, you slut!"
"Why you little-" she tried to slap me but I quickly grabbed her wrist and put it aside.
"Really? What are we in grade school?" I turned to Kureno. "Come on, Miyako is worry about you and she thinks you were about to… you-know-what."
"What? I would never cheat on her! I'm mean sure I was drunk and flirted with her but I was only playing!" He said.
"You what? You flirted with her? Ok you are now officially the worst friend ever."
"Meru come on!" With that we left and soon reunited with Miyako.
I was still pissed after what Anneliese did to my friends. That was the lowest thing she could ever do. But when I thought it was over, I was wrong. The next day Riena told me there was a visitor for Kureno. It was Anneliese. She wouldn't give up! She was going to keep going after Kureno until he finally caved in. But we all know that was NEVER going to happen.
When that didn't work, she went after Lyon but she soon got death glares and death threats from Yuri. And she just went back to square 1.
One day I was calling for Kureno seeing if he had free time to hang with me.
"Kureno! Kureno!" I called. When I had no answer I went into his room. When I opened the door guess who I saw. Anneliese. Right there, she tried to get intimate with Kureno. Thats when I snapped.
"That. is. IT! Anneliese, you know what? Get out and get as far away as possible. If I see you again, I make sure that I drug you, cut open your stomach and feed your intestines to you. Do I make myself clear?" I screamed furiously.
"What makes you have the right to make me stop seeing someone?" She said not affected of what i just said.
"I can always report a restraining order. Now we wouldn't want that, do we?" I shot back.
"How about this? We'll have a little contest." She said.
"Of what?"
"Cooking."
"Cooking?"
"Yes. You win, I'll you alone, I win, and I'll do whatever I want."
"Deal."
"What! Are you crazy?" Kureno shouted.
"Kureno you know me ever since i was born. I wouldn't accepted if i knew that I would surely lose."
"fine." With that she left and said, "See you here 5:00 PM sharp."
"You're on."
End of Flashback
"In the end, Meru won with a full 100 points." Riena said stopping the car. "Ok we're here."
"Thank you Riena, for the ride." I said bowing.
"No need for the bow, though it's been awhile since I saw Miyako and the others. I'll pay a visit."
"Man, who knew that happened to Meru?" Edward said with his arms behind his head.
"I guess her life is more complicated than we thought." Said Leo.
"Yeah…" Was all I could say.
Later…. After Riena went home, we were in a long lecture. Miyako and Yuri yelled at us for a whole 30 minutes about the incident 5 years ago and this morning. I guess this wasn't exactly something they like to remember. After a while, they decided to let this go but warned us if this happened again we would surely be punish. Soren didn't looked fazed at all, Ike just laugh at how the whole lecture thing, Sothe and Micaiah just shrugged and try to get as far away as possible.
Sometimes I wonder, was Meru's life this complicated?
Outside of School's gate 3:20 PM
Meru's POV
After one heck of a long day, I regretted after what I agreed on with Anneliese.
Flashback
"This is what we're going to do to settle this once and for all." Anneliese said.
"I'm listening." I said crossing my arms.
"You and I going to have a contest."
"Again?"
"Ah, but this time it will be about being feminine." She said that with a slight evilish smirk on her face.
"Fe-feminineness?"
"Yes. If you win, I swear I will be out of your life forever."
"But if I lose?"
"Then whatever I do, you have to deal with. In other words, I have complete immunity of you. Whatever I do and say, you can't stop me."
"So in other words, if you flirt or whatever with someone, I can't stop you for whatever reason and I have to leave it be?"
"Exactly. So, can you handle it?"
I thought about for a while. Feminineness wasn't exactly my strong suit. I mean even though back then I was a complete girlish type girl, I did have some boyish personality as well. Which, in the end cause me to be a complete tom-boy. "I accept."
"Good. We'll have one week to prepare. On Sunday, we'll have permission to have this contest on the school's stage. Good-luck, cause you'll need it. Oh-ho-ho-ho!" She left laughing like an idiot.
"What have I gotten myself into?"
End of flashback
I shuddered at the thought of being a TOTAL untom-boy girl. Sure I act like a girl, but there are times where being like a boy seem easier.
"Meru, wait up!" a voice yelled behind as I was walking down from the school's gate. "Sophia, what brings you here?" I asked the breathless red-head girl.
"I heard *gasps* about the contest between you *gasps* and HER." She said.
"I must be an idiot for doing that." I said shaking my head in shame.
"Actually this could be a great opportunity."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, one, I'll actually see as a full-time girl, and two, I can't see the look on Ann's face when you beat her."
"Well, I do know how to act like a girl, but the problem is dealing with it, if you know what I mean."
"Relax Meru. Look I know you can do it, you just have to trust your inner feminine self."
"Grrreat…." I said REALLY sarcastically.
"Hey look there's your house!" She pointed to my house.
"Yeah, I totally forgot that I have to tell this to the others."
"Others?"
"My friends and my sister."
"No I know that but, who are the others?"
I looked confused about what she said and just realized that she doesn't know that Fayt and the others were living with me. "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you that Fayt and the others are living with me." I said going up to the door step of my house but Sophia just froze.
"What?" i asked.
"Y-y-you're living with them?" she stuttered.
"Yeah…"
"W-w-w-w-why?"
"Because they are not around here and they need a place." i slightly tilted my head.
"….."
"Look Sophia, just go home and I'll explain LATER."
"Uh-huh sure…" She left still having that shocked expression.
"Oh boy this going to be harder than I thought." I said opening the door, yelling, "I'm home!" to everyone in the house.
"Oh Meru, welcome home." Miyako said hugging me unusually.
"Yeah… ok what happened?"
"what do you mean?"
"Yuri and Miyako yelled at Fayt and the others about what happened this morning and what they heard about what to you 5 years ago." Ike said walking to the living room eating chips.
"Thank you Ike." She said.
"You're welcome."
"Oh about that… Sis I need to tell you something." I said very uncomfortable.
"What is it?"
"Umm…"
"WHAT!"
"eh heh…"
Meru: finally done.
Yuri: wow and I thought it would take you DAYS to finish this chapter.
Meru: shut up and don't make me hurt you.
Lyon: Well, you have been lazy.
Meru: great now you got him in this now. Anyways hope you like this chappy.
All: BYE!
