You know where you are writing a story... but are too lazy to either finish it or post it... that kinda happened to me ^_^' sorry guys. Anyway please enjoy this chapter ^-^ I'll try and go back to my normal writing pattern!
I got a bunch of calls from everyone asking if I was okay. After I assured everyone I laid back in bed again. Gill still stayed with me, I looked over at him "You know you can go if you want."
He looked up from a book "No, it's fine, I have nothing to do in the summer anyway, plus I don't have to go to work today."
"You work?"
"Yes, I work at the town hall and help my father."
"Oh, cause you want to be mayor?"
"How did you know?"
"Just how you act... plus the diary thing gives it away too."
"Are you ever going to let that off me?" He asked blushing.
"Nope." I grinned.
"So anyway, wasn't that weirdo supposed to come and visit you soon?"
"Who?"
"Your brother's girlfriend. She said she would come and see you."
"Uh, I completly forgot. Not to mention soccer and stuff... this will be difficult."
"Well, all you have to do is get rid of her and you will be okay."
"Yeah." It was a lot harder than he thought. Holly would of bought the fact that I was here, but she always thinks Yuki is cheating on her. I didn't really get it cause I saw her with plenty of guys when they were "dating". I wondered if part of the reason Yuki went to America was because he wanted to avoid her. I heard the phone ring and got up "Hello?"
"Hikari, we need to talk."
"What do you want?"
Gill mouthed "Who is it?"
I wrote on a piece of paper Ex Boyfriend.
He gave me a look but I payed no attention to it. He left the room "I want us to get back together."
I snorted "Why? What makes you think I want to get back together with you after all that crap you did to me?"
"Because I know that you have been pretending to be your brother." He sounded like he was smirking.
I felt my stomach flip all the way "How did you-?"
"I stayed here since the festival... thought I would come over and apologize and use that approach to get you back but you came out dressed as a boy... or your brother." I grimaced, he started laughing "I can tell you are mad, now when should our next date be?"
"You know I'm not going to let you get away with this so freely?"
"That's right... you usually have a bet. Let me hear it hun."
"You are still on the schools soccer team right?"
"Yes."
"Your team and our team will be facing off. If we win, you can't tell a soul and you will never talk to me again... if you win, then you can tell everyone and we can go back to our relationship."
He snickered "Alright. I'll start thinking of dates we can go on. See you later honey."
I hung up and ran to my bed, I screamed as hard as I could into the pillow.
Gill ran in "What?"
"The world hates me!" I snapped then went back to screaming into my pillow. Just when I think stuff couldn't get weirder, my ex randomly finds out my secret.
"Don't worry about it now. You'll get sick again."
"It's impossible to not think about it! My ex knows about the whole thing and is going to tell everyone if we lose against them in the championship! Hell he might be lying and telling the whole damn world as we speak!" (Note: She is screaming this all while her face is buried in the pillow.)
"How did he find out?"
"Same way Luke did pretty much! We have to stop talking about that while we are walking home!"
I had kind of a tantrum after that, I remembered slamming my fists on the bed and screaming some more... but that was kinda it. Then I came back to my senses breathing heavily still laying in my bed. I felt myself blush knowing that Gill had watched my whole tantrum.
"Sorry..." I mumbled.
He sighed and shrugged "What do you think you should do."
I got up and shrugged "I don't know... tell everyone that my sister's boyfriend has gone nuts... though I don't think everyone will buy that."
"Tell everyone you are moving... then turn back into a girl. I think this would've been a good idea right from the beginning."
"I want to play soccer though. That's why I came here."
"How come you can't join the girl's team?"
"The girl's team sucks here and at my old school. I know the boys team wouldn't let me play, that and my brother told me to cover for him when he left for America. I decided that would be a good opportunity to give your team a shot. I'm not backing down from it."
"You are running out of choices though, what if he is lying and is telling the town as we speak?"
"He wouldn't do that. He would wait to kick our butts then tell the whole world till everyone wants to kill him from being so annoying."
"You know if we win he might tell everyone anyway?"
I was quiet for a second "I... will try and figure that part out."
He sighed and rubbed his temples, after a few moments he said "Well, you might want to prepare for when Holly comes. There will be a summer festival in two days, that will be a good chance to see her when you are a girl. She might be waiting for that too."
"Summer Fest... the one with the fireworks?"
"Yes."
"Maybe I can get Roomi to go with you to see them." I smirked.
He blushed "I-I doubt you will though."
"Well, if not, I can ask her what she thinks of you. I'm sure she likes you."
"No she doesn't."
I got up and patted him on the shoulder "Don't lose hope that easily. I'm positive I can get her to watch the fireworks with you."
His blush deepened slightly "You seem pretty confident..." He mumbled.
"I've got a idea."
"And yet you can't figure out what to do with your ex boyfriend or Holly?"
"At least our town doesn't have ten billion festivals."
"Is something wrong with that?"
"Kinda, out of all the festivals, there is not one dango shop."
"Dango?"
"You know... those dumplings... they also had a song."
"I know what they are. I just didn't know you liked dangos."
"Yep, they are my favorite!"
"And... they have a song too?"
"Yep! Do you want to hear it?"
"No."
"Then why did you ask?"
"I didn't know if you were serious or not."
"Hm... I'm going to sing it anyway."
"No thanks."
"I wasn't asking you. I'm going to sing it anyway whether you like it or not."
"Please don't."
He glared at me, then turned around and headed for the kitchen. I grinned and started singing it to myself quietly "Dango Dango Dango Dango Dango Daikazoku. Yancha na yaki dango, yasashii an dango. Minna Minna awasete hyakunin kazoku. Akachan dango wa itsumo shiawase no naka de. Toshiyori dango wa me o hosometeru-"
"Quit it!"
"I'm singing it to myself."
"But i can here it over here!"
"Aw, don't be a party pooper. It's a cute song!"
"Sing it in your head then."
I pouted "Fine! Be that way." So I grabbed my ipod and listened to it. I swear that I heard him humming it though.
I couldn't resist making Hikari sing Dango Daikazoku. Here are the english lyrics for the song:
Dango dango dango dango big dango family
A mischievous roasted dango, a kind sweet bean dango
Gather them up and it's a family of a hundred
A baby dango is cradled in happiness
An old dango gazes with squinty eyes-
If you have never heard this song I suggest you listen to it! It is the cutest song I have ever heard!
