Enjoy this rushed chapter x
Four. 18:32 p.m.
"Hn."
Honestly, he didn't expect another call from that idiot. Especially three days after their last... encounter (if you could call it that.)
"Natsume?"
Thank Heaven that she didn't get his number mixed up with the Ice Queen.
"Hn."
She was quiet. This was unusual. She was usually preppy and told him off for doing something, which he would like to call, 'badass'. Such as skipping classes. However, she was quiet. And this only occurs when she has something in her mind which was bothering her.
He waited for her to speak - to say anything. Even though it might be something idiotic or something that may catch him off-guard.
Most of the times, it's the former.
"Oi Polka, I'm going to hang up if you don't talk," he warned, impatient.
Who said he was a patient man? Er, I mean teenage boy.
"Ano, Natsume?"
She was awfully quiet. It was scary - even for him.
What had he done now? He didn't do anything other than the usual - flipping her skirt, calling her names, annoying her...etc. The usual.
"Do you really think I should break up with Rio?"
Oh. This was the matter.
Has he mentioned that she rarely rarely catches him off-guard?
The owner of crimson eyes did not reply for a few minutes. Why on Earth was he being an idiot, telling her to ditch that college-dude? It was none of his matter. He shouldn't have interfered. It was their matters - not his. But despite this, he couldn't bear see his... nemesis breaking down. He had to do something.
He had to.
"Yes. Ditch him if you think he's cheating on you."
The Natsume Hyuuga giving love advice? Please. It was only for a brief seconds.
Thankfully, that idiot did not notice.
He heard her sigh, "Hotaru told me that yesterday. She said that I should break up with him because he only make me cry. I guess you are both right. I'm going to do this. Tomorrow. Arigatou Natsume, for your help."
Her tone was laced with sadness and a hint of anger.
But Natsume knew exactly how to cheer her up, after years of spending time with that clumsy childish idiot.
"Let me know how it went, cherry-printed girl."
He covered his eyes, preparing himself for the outcome of his words.
One.
Two.
Three.
"HENTAI BAKA NATSUME!"
"Wow. A new word."
"Meanie."
"Idiot."
"Bully."
"Crybaby."
"Jerk."
"Stop crying and smile, idiot."
And he hung up.
Of course, that was the Natsume Hyuuga style.
Any critiques are welcome :)
