Hana x Yori ff story

Chapter 3: A thing called Destiny

***

"Crap!"

That word fell from Hanabusa's lips as he thought of what happened yesterday. He had talked with Yuuki Cross and found out about her problem. He reported it back to the pureblood and Kaname just dismissed him afterwards. He figured out that the pureblood was troubled at his report. After all, Yuuki Cross doubted the pureblood whom she thought discerned about her past. And he couldn't blame Yuuki about that; it was after all, the pureblood that saved her so Kaname must know more than that. Or at least he believed so.

The pureblood was keeping a lot of things not only to her but to all the other people around him, including him. But then again, he wouldn't ask the pureblood why he hadn't told anyone of his plans. It was disrespectful and stupid if Hanabusa asked that from the pureblood. He trusted Kaname and Kaname trusted him. That was all that mattered.

He figured Kaname had too much burden on his shoulders and he didn't want to add more weight to those problems. That is why he didn't tell him the whole story that happened last night.

Because last night, he had confirmed that the girl whom he almost attacked was a student here in Cross Academy. Not only that, but she was the dorm mate of Yuuki Cross.

'Shit!!'

He cursed again. How rare was the chance of that happening? He thought he was lucky since he didn't get severely punished but now after that, he must be one of the unluckiest men in the whole world. He combed his hand on his blond wavy hair and closed his eyes. Fate was totally cruel on him.

He sighed and opened his eyes. He had decided after that, that he will confront the girl and erase her memory of how they met. It would be a lot better to destroy the evidence before it showed itself. He wouldn't risk the chances of destroying Kaname's trust on him. He could take any punishment but he couldn't take the pureblood's sad expression on his face as he tells him that he had destroyed his trust. He couldn't take it. He wouldn't let it happen. So tonight, he would skip class and meet with her. He would obliterate her recollections and let everything be the same as it was.

Yes, that was the best decision. It was for the best for his sake and as well for everyone.

***

Yori sighed and closed the book she was reading. She looked at her clock and it stated 7:45 pm. She had already finished doing her homework and assignments. She had already finished almost half of the book she was reading earlier. She sighed with boredom and spot a certain white envelop her mother gave her before she left her home.

Her mother had scolded her whole hearted when she learned that Yori had turn down another decent man she had picked for her. She stood there quiet as a mouse as her mother reprimanded her. She was used to it. There was no use for logical reasoning with her mother; after all… her mother was desperate.

She was so desperate to the fact that she wanted Yori stop school and just get married. It was illogical as well as ridiculous. She had many plans for her future and she was totally not ready for love to come along her way.

She read the letter once more. After re-reading it for the second time, she closed and put the letter back inside the envelope. She shook her head and decided to free her mind about her mother's lectures. She stood up from her seat and placed her shoes on. She knew it was already past curfew but then a little bit of fresh air wouldn't hurt. Thus she silently went out of the room and walked through the queer corridors. Then she closed the huge door of the main entrance. It made a slight squeaky sound as she shut it but then she knew no one could have heard it. She figured that everyone had already been in bed, ready to sleep.

As she stepped down the small ladder, she braced herself for the cold air that passed through her. She ignored the cold air and walked towards her favorite spot.

***

Yori knew it was forbidden to stay up as well as walk around school grounds after curfew. But then, she couldn't help try to break the rule sometimes and this was definitely one of those 'sometimes.'

Soon, she reached her favorite spot in the school campus. It was the bed of flowers near the lake. Only few people came there and she knew why, they were too much busy doing other unimportant stuffs. No one realized that there were more things in Cross Academy than boys, fame and popularity.

She sat down on the grass and looked at the serene scenery in front of her. She was mesmerized at how the lake looked so peaceful and quiet. All she could hear at that moment were the sounds of crickets and insects humming around the place. Then she could see how the water reflected the moon and stars. It made the lake look like the wall paper that she pasted on the ceiling of her bedroom back in her home. It brought memories of her happy childhood and the nostalgic reverie that happened when her family was complete.

She cuddled her legs closer to her chest as she looked at the sight in front of her. It was absolutely magnificent.

All her thoughts rippled away as she heard some footsteps walking closer to her. She cocked her head towards the intruder and saw a blonde guy with blue eyes. He looked surprised as she noticed his presence but soon it faded and a confident side of him appeared. He flashed a smile at her and fixed his white uniform. He was obviously a night class student judging by the way he looked.

She looked at how his uniform slightly got dirty. She thought that it probably happened because he walked all the way from the main building to where they were at. She titled her head at him and quietly stared at him.

"Can I help you?" Yori asked and looked at the new comer.

"Ah… I was surprised to see a Day Class Student here. It's already past your curfew." He told her with a cool and confident voice. But then that didn't intimidate Yori and she glanced away from him.

"And you're skipping in your classes. I suppose you're the one they call Aidou-sempai?" She mumbled coherently and looked at the lake once more.

Hanabusa grinned and felt happy that the girl named Yori knew her. Of course, who wouldn't? He is after all… the idol of the Night Class, Hanabusa Aidou. Then he examined her face that showed no emotions. It was like his classmates' Shiki and Rima. It didn't show any expression. It also didn't stated any thoughts that were running inside her head. It was the first time he saw that look on a human. Usually, all the women and men he knew were too easy to read.

All his fan girls were too easy to read. He knew what they wanted and thought at a particular moment and yet here this woman or girl seemed different. Not to mention that aside from all the human girls he knew. He felt something unique about her like she was an extraordinary girl that seemed too usual for her sake.

Hanabusa was too occupied scrutinizing her so he didn't realize that her brown eyes already locked on his blue ones. He slightly faltered but then he tried to hide his embarrassment and smiled at her.

"So… how did you know that I am Aidou?" He tried to open up a topic about him. After all, everyone talked about him. He was so sure of that since he knew he was that popular so it wouldn't surprise him if she was his fan.

Yori didn't reply for a while and kept looking at Hanabusa. Her face showed no usual girly-girl expression like his fan girls. She was looking at him like she was a private investigator, firm and staid.

"I heard from Yuuki that you were the most misbehaved student. A law breaker if you put in layman's term, in case you didn't understand what I said earlier." She mumbled and stared blankly at Aidou.

He couldn't believe it. He was being underestimated by this female. This is the first time that had happened and not to mention that she was a girl. A HUMAN GIRL!!

"I understand what misbehaved mean, f.y.i. I am after all a genius." He defended his pride and uttered back to her.

Her expression changed into a less surprised one. Then she mouthed, "I see… I thought that there was nothing else inside your brain but air since you're so full of yourself."

WHACK! It hit him right on the spot. She knew he who really was and yet she had to mention his flaws. What kind of woman says those mean things to a guy like him?

"I am not so full of myself." He stated and slightly raised his voice. What do you expect? He had to defend himself, somehow… especially to this girl.

"I see… then my apologies." She uttered and stood up. "It must be my imagination or my own viewpoint. I don't mean to offend you though." Then she walked away from him and said, "I should go back to my room before I get caught."

"Hey! We're not done talking yet." He yelled.

Yori glanced at Hanabusa and said, "We aren't? Then I guess we should end it then. Goodbye." With that she marched back to the direction of her dorm.

Hanabusa cursed under his breath and decided to follow Yori. He followed the trail Yori took off and caught up with her.

"Hey!" He called her but unfortunately she didn't stop or glance at him. "Hey you!" He hollered her again and this time he placed a hand on her shoulder so she would stop. "Hey!"

"My name is not hey or hey you. It's Yori, Sayori Wakaba." She snapped at him with her expressionless face.

"Okay, anyway… don't you recognize me from somewhere?" He tried to let her remember what happened on the bar on the last day of their vacation.

"No and I'm not falling for that pick up line." She sneered at him and brushed his hand away from her shoulder. "If you're thinking of adding me to your fan girls, I would tell you to stop dreaming of it because not all women are into looks."

"What?! I didn't mean it like that!! And I am totally not picking you up or making you be one of my fan girls, for Peter's sake!" he defended himself and was slightly taken back at what she said. Was this girl really too frank on how he acts and looks like?

"Oh really then? What really are you trying to prove then, Aidou-sempai?" She uttered sternly and crossed her arms on her chest. She was taunting him to speak up what's on his mind. Somehow, her gaze was cold and intent at the same time. He couldn't grasp what she wanted to prove to him.

"I'm just saying if you remember anything about us… meeting." He told her.

"You mean right now?"

"No!! I meant at the bar!!"

Yori was slightly taken back at his revelation. How did he knew she went to a bar last vacation? Then one thing popped on her mind, "You're not a stalker are you?" Her eyes slightly squinted with suspicion at him.

"HELL NO!!"

"Psychic?"

"NO! Crap! I'm telling you that I bumped into you at the bar when I was going to the rest room." He explained to her. Does he have to shove what really happened on her face? For Pete's sake, this was an embarrassing experience to him. Never did he, Hanabusa Aidou, do that. He was a gentleman in front of the ladies and yet now, it was as if every bit of gentleness in him disappeared.

Then gradually Yori realized what he was pointing at. He was the man who tried to harass her.

"Look, I don't know what happened back then but I was drunk so—" he tried to walk towards her and decided to erase her memories but then Yori took a few steps back.

"Now I remember. You were the guy who tried to harass me. Don't you dare come any closer or I will scream and make sure Yuuki and Zero-kun hear it. No way are you going to harass me again." She threatened him and put a huge distance between them.

"No! That wasn't what I meant. I—" he took a step closer to her but she placed a hand between them.

"Don't move any closer or I swear only the deaf can't hear my scream. I'm not afraid of telling everyone that you're a pervert who tried to assault an innocent girl that found you less attractive."

"WHAT??!" he exclaimed. He couldn't believe it. She found him unattractive?! Not only that but she thought that he was a stalker as well as a pervert! That was too much. His ego was totally been crumpled by her frankness and by her as well.

He was about to lose his temper to this girl and straddle her neck but then it would only bring him more trouble so he decided to calm down. "Look, I mean no harm and I would definitely not stalk or assault you."

"Right. You could just tell me that vampires exist as well." She mumbled and eyed on him.

"How can you say that?!" He asked her with shock. Did she know?

"Say what?"

"That! About the vampire thingy!"

"That was just a figure of speech, Mr. I-am-a-genius." She mocked him.

He was somehow relieved she didn't know about him being a vampire as well as figuring he was one. His secret was safe.

"I see… well then, I'll be going then. I won't bother you anymore, just so you know." He uttered and decided to leave her there. After all, she didn't know about him almost attacking her, that night. As well as letting his existence as a vampire be uncovered. It was better to leave the poor frank girl alone before she figures out his true objective.

"Wait… Aidou-sempai." She hollered his name and he stopped walking.

'Just like now.' He told himself and glanced back at her with annoyance. "What?" He was somehow tensed that maybe she had remembered the crime he almost done to her that night.

She eyed on him with no hesitation and uttered, "Do you think I would just keep quiet like that?" She must be out of her mind, saying those bold words but she was out of ideas. She was sure her mother wouldn't stop pestering her even if she tells the woman that she wouldn't be marrying anyone until she was bored of her single life. This was her only choice, to black mail him for the debt he still owe her.

"Say what?" Aidou muttered with disbelief. That girl sounded as if she was threatening him. Hell, He was being blackmailed.

Yori sighed and said, "I said, I want to make a deal with you." She bravely mouthed those words to him. She knew she was going to regret this later on. She had so many men to choose from in the whole world and yet, she chose him: The playboy Hanabusa Aidou.

"And what would that be?" He curiously asked. His instinct told him that whatever deal she was going to state to him was not good.

"Please be my boyfriend for a few months." She said in a gentle but firm voice. Her brown eyes didn't waver as she looked at him.

While he, on the other hand, was taken back to the words that fell from her lips. "What?!" He uttered as his blue eyes widened with shock and surprise.

"I said, please be my boyfriend." She repeated with the same tone and stare at him.

Was he dreaming? The girl who almost spat with him was asking him to be her girlfriend? Had the world gone mad? Oh wait, it had… except it was only his.

H: Well so there you have it... heheh, LOL! will Aidou agree, you ask? Hmm... maye if you guys click the green button and review... he may tell you guys his decision!! soo.... please leave any comments and suggestions!! LOL!!
