Hallo, ladies and gentlemen. Many thanks for the 1,000 plus hits you guys made happen for my first fic. This, dear readers, is another fanfic I will really try to finish. For those who made the awesome 1,000 plus hits, this is The Queen Bee.

Summary:

The Queen Bee was Ringo. (As incredulous as it is,) And it is now Akito. With his grades dropping drastically, triggered cross-dressing and 12-hours-phone-call-sessions everyday, Agito is afraid that Kaito, their older brother, would take them away to another place—which Agito does care about now.


The bell rang lunch and everybody's already settled in their own tables; everyone's here—except for that bird brain. Akito sighed exaggeratingly, his shoulders slumping even more, his pouted lips curving into a frown ever more. I have no idea why he, my twin brother, a person who shared the same bedroom with me for so many years, who eats with me, who is so close to me, is so concerned about that bird brain. Ever since Akito became this Queen Bee, he thought all the more that Ikki actually cares about him—that, is ridiculous and extremely wrong.

Ringo, the previous Queen Bee, says nothing, on the other hand. I sometimes wanted to apologize for my twin's actions. But still, I don't know why Ringo treats Ikki damn too special. He is not worth anyone's time. Or love.

I heard a squeal from behind and noticed Akito and Ringo's faces light up and darken at the same time.

"Where have you been?" Kazu said as the bird brain sat on his chair (which was actually reserved by Akito and is, naturally, beside him).

"We've been waiting for you," Emily said.

Ringo opened her mouth but her face fell and she closed it when she saw Akito huddle against Ikki. Ikki never paid any special attention to Ringo, Queen Bee or not. Things weren't different for Akito, though.

"Those girls were chasing me down the corridors. I had to hide," Ikki said, glancing behind his shoulder, they still found me, though," he straightened his polo which looked like the claws of those squealing girls had dug them into it and stretched it on both different directions.

Kazu nodded, sipping at his soda.

"Man, you rip girls off of you all the time," Onigiri said.

I snorted. If his look at me was dark and horrifyingly menacing, I didn't know and did not care about that. Just how ignorant he is to Akito and Ringo's efforts.

"Emily, why are you not eating?" Kazu asked.

"Oh," Emily said, her eyes glued to her notebook, "I have to pass the test later," she said in an overly resolute tone and expression. Then her eyes moved from her notebook, "Did you guys passed the test last week?"

"That was pretty easy," Akito said.

"Yeah," Ringo nodded.

Queen Bee or not, Akito and Ringo kept their grades up.

"Did you?" Kazu asked Emily.

"Miraculously, yes," she said brightly.

"Ikki did not, but he was the highest among Kazu, I, and Bucca!" Onigiri intervened, dignity in his voice as held his head high. Everyone looked blankly at him. His face went pink, "What? That's unsual…"

"How many points did you get?" Ringo asked Ikki.

Bucca answered for him after a moment of silence, "Ten points over thirty items,"

"That's awesome," Akito told Ikki brightly.

"Yeah," I said, laughing silently, "Very awesome,"

Everyone broke into a smile now.

"I know!" Ikki said, adamantly.

I laughed more. Pighead. So did the others.

"Chill, Ikki," Ringo said.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk," Kazu said, "Act like a man, Ikki, a man," with the last word, he puffed up.

Emily and Akito giggled.

"Stop that, Kazu," Ikki said, "You look stupid,"

"I was just saying that you stop acting like a kid!"

"You are trying to make Emily laugh." I said.

Our table went on filled with laughs, jeers and smiles. I must admit that this is one of those times when some things could not go wrong anymore for me. And when I have to push aside my pessimistic thoughts because I know something would always happen.
