I own nothing yet again
Here's the fourth chapter
Chapter 4: Catching On
Matt's POV
It has been a month since I idiotically made that model's daughter comment and I asked for forgiveness a million times and even though she said it was ok and she forgave me she still made me pay. In the past month I have suffered more embarrassment then I have in the 17years of my life.
She has made me look like an idiot, an insensitive jerk and the shallowest guy on the face of the planet. When my friends found out why I yelled at her the first day Tai and Daisuke made fun of me until they couldn't breathe from laughing the others weren't so amused. They won't let me live it down.
Who knew someone could have such a short fuse one wrong comment at the school pool party and she pushed me in fully clothed then spent the rest of the time ignoring me. I can't even tell dad because in his eyes she's a perfect angel. That's what annoys me the most to everyone else she's as sweet and wonderful as an angel to me she's the devil incarnate.
To make matters worse she's met Dai's crazy sister Jun AND Keiko for a mercy she doesn't get along with either one. But last week things just got weird a rumor has the whole school believing that I secretly like her that's why the cool and confident Matt they all know goes away when ever she's around. They have no idea how wrong they are she's evil and I refuse to lose to her. I mean I won't lie she's hotter than hell but that's it anyway that doesn't matter cause I figured out her game.
She gets inside your head and confuses you to the point where you end up doing and saying exactly what she wants. But that's it she doesn't do anything that is physical and leaves lasting effect the mind games only work to a certain extent. And the physical games are my personal specialty let's see if she can handle the Ishida charm.
….
I walk into the kitchen to see she's there trying to put away the freshly washed dishes. Perfect. Without announcing my presence I walk up behind her and take the glass that she struggling to put back in its place making sure our hands brush slightly.
She spins around in surprise and her eyes widen a fraction when she sees how close we are. I smile and say, "Having trouble?" in my most sensual voice.
She looks at me in a defiant sort of was that I must admit is kind of cute and her response is, "No I'm perfectly capable of putting the dishes away myself and if you don't mind get out of my personal space."
I back away my hands up as a sign of surrender but decide to sit on the counter and watch her work. She seems unnerved by my presence, which makes me smile. But the smile got wiped off my face when she broke a glass cup slicing a small part of her palm open.
I jumped off the counter and took her hand and started examining the wound when I looked up I met violet eyes that were filled with confusion and pain.
"W-We should get this cleaned" was my smooth suggestion and I dragged her to the bathroom where the first aid was.
She followed without comment which was good because I was still trying to figure out why the hell looking into her eyes made me so nerves. This wasn't supposed to happen. She's supposed to be the injured damsel and I her charming and irresistible savior that makes her blush and fluster her.
"Why are you so stocked up on first aid? Are you really that accident prone?" her voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I looked up to see her smirking face. I had been cleaning her wound mechanically.
"Well when your best friend is Taichi you have to have first aid supplies on hand he has a habit of getting us into situations that lead to us coming home in need of medical attention. That's another reason Joe is a good friend to have around."
Out of the corner of my eye I can see she's still watching me so I finish as quickly as possible. "I'll go clean up the glass so you can just go to your room or something. Ok?"
Without waiting for response I leave her in the bathroom and start cleaning up.
What's wrong with me?
Rika's POV
Before I could even say I was fine he left. None of this would have happened if he had just stayed out of the kitchen. I didn't even hear the bastard come in but can still fell the electricity that through my arm when his hand brushed against mine. My body still feels tingly from having him so close and that annoys me more then I can say.
What the hell is wrong with me? Ugh not happening I need a distraction… I wonder what he's doing.
I walk out of the bathroom to see he's done picking up. He doesn't notice I'm there so I hang back to see what he does. After throwing the glass out he stands there for a few seconds a look on his face like he's confused by something then he shakes his head and runs a hand through his hair.
He looks up and our eyes meet and for some stupid reason my heart jumps up to my throat.
Say something stupid! The voice in my head yells. "I came to see if you needed help"
He arches an eyebrow and gives me an amused look, "I told you I'd take care of it" he smirks at me and adds, "unless this is an excuse to spend more time with me."
I scoff, "Now why would I want o do that?" I start making my way to the couch. Again he gives me that infuriating smirk of his, "Because you want me"
That last comment caught me off guard I look at him to see he's watching me with amusement as if he was purposely doing this to make me uncomfortable. Then it hit me he was that jackass was messing with me!
"Really and how do I know it's not the other way around?" I get to the couch and plop on to it I didn't expect him to plop right next to me.
He cocked another eye brow at me, "Well what if it is? Would it really make a difference which one of us has the crush?" What the hell did he mean!
"If I liked you or you liked me it is the same thing and we'd probably never know. We're both to stubborn to admit it" I swear he can read minds.
I am so beyond confused what is he doing to me!
Matt's POV
Man this is fun she's getting more confused by the second. I am definitely enjoying this.
She looked at me as if she was bored "I think you've lost it why would either of us have a reason to like the other?" a mischievous smile spread on her lips "Or is this your way of telling me the rumors at school are true?"
I faltered I wasn't expecting that one stupid mistake. I had to get this conversation back under my control but before I could say anything her cell phone rang. I took this as a blessing let her talk to her mom while I thought of a way of the mess I just made.
"Hello" I turned to see her face light up "Takato?" that one word was said with joy, love and longing and for some reason I felt like someone had stabbed me in the heart.
She got off the couch and went into her room shutting the door behind her leaving me alone on the couch forgotten. Only one thing going through my mind…
Who the fuck is Takato?
Well that's that hope you liked it
Read & review
And no Rika does not like Takato it's just to get Matt mad you'll see I have many plans for this.
