Such a long wait for this update I know -.-' reason being I got so disheartened when my laptop died as I saved the new chap file. I couldn't believe it wasn't anywhere when I turned it back on. Stupid PC -sobs . Buuut I just wrote it again as best I could remember! Enjoy if you can~
This is not good. I haven't ever tried to calm Setsu down before. Normally I am all for a little mischief, but this isn't the time or place Evangeline thought as she squeezed her friends hand with as much force as she could muster while keeping a straight face
"Ow!" Setsuna complained as she wrenched her hand free and waved it around while she walked towards the classroom door, fully intending on skipping class
"Setsuna-san, You will be staying in class! It is my duty as a teacher to make sure you are attending classes!" Negi yelled in a voice filled with authority. He had become a little miffed at being ignored earlier and his pride was on the line here
That seemed to do the trick. Setsuna's eyes faded back to their normal colour and her hair changed back to its normal colour as well before anyone could see that difference. She had a look of shock on her face before she pulled her stoic mask back up, and turning on her heel she walked to the empty seat beside Eva's
When Eva followed her and sat down she hissed in her friends ear "You almost lost it Setsu. I almost broke your hand trying to snap you out of it"
Setsuna rolled her eyes "Well thanks for your concern Eva but I am fine now so let me focus on my studies"
"Pfft. Don't think you are off the hook with me so easily. You owe me one birdbrain"
"Mhmm" Setsuna said as she opened her notebook and looked up at the chalkboard, trying to listen to Negi's lesson. She was almost annoyed when she seen Konoka was staring at her with a frown marring her normally cheerful face
Geez, I made a damn scene and now Ojosama is upset. My stupid feelings are really getting in the way of things. I need to deal with this one way or another Setsuna thought as she got an idea
Ojosama,
Meet me after school under the World Tree. There are things I need to explain.
-S.S
Setsuna scribbled that message on a piece of blank paper before using some of her chi to create a soft breeze, which in turn, carried the now paper airplane note to Konoka's desk
"Hmm?" Konoka murmured when a paper airplane landed on her desk. Unfortunately for her that caught her friend/guards attention
"Oooo lala, what's this Konoka? Love notes? You sly dog, I thought you liked-" Konoka closed her friends mouth just in time
"Geez Asuna. Any louder and she might have heard you! Now give me that back please" Konoka said in annoyance, sticking her hand out
"Pssh, Your no fun" Asuna said handing over the paper
Secchan wants to meet up? Oh, she had some things to explain? I would say so, what was with her eyes? They used to be such a beautiful gold. Then the guards at my house made her wear coloured contacts as to not draw suspicion… but why did they turn red? I hate secrets between us. Now that we are back together I won't ruin my chance's to further our relationship, surely when I say how much she means to me she'll open up! Konoka thought as she smiled reading the note
That girl really irks me. She has the nerve to address Ojosama by first name, now she is stealing the note I wrote Ojosama Setsuna thought as she clenched her fists on her desk top
"You really don't like that pigtailed redhead huh?" Eva said in a teasing tone
"She is obnoxious and dim witted as far as I can tell. It seems she hasn't changed at all since our childhood days" Setsuna said sighing
"Oh yeah, she must be the Asuna you talked about while we trained on the mountain. Indeed, she does seem annoying"
Setsuna loosened her fist when she seen Konoka smile as she read the note. That's a good sign, she doesn't appear mad by my stupid actions earlier Setsuna though relieved
As the end of the school day bell rang, Setsuna packed her things and slung her sword over her shoulder, hoping to get to the world tree before the curious classmates swarmed her. No such luck.
"Hey, Setsuna-san, perhaps you would like to join me and my friends for lunch?" a girl with short pink hair asked, blushing slightly
"Uh, sorry I actually am meeting someone right now, perhaps another time" Setsuna said as she bowed and walked out the door in haste
Setsuna was not pleased when Konoka showed up accompanied by the redhead, frowning Setsuna narrowed her eyes at the girl, and felt more annoyed when she smiled goofily back
"Hey Secchan!" Konoka sang happily, glomping her
"Hello Setsuna-san. I am sure you are wondering why I came… well I think we got off on the wrong start" Asuna said rubbing the back of her neck
Setsuna sighed as she leaned against the tree "Yes, I apologize. That is why I asked to meet Ojosama"
"Oh. I see…" Konoka said a little deflated
What was she expecting? Setsuna thought confused for a moment
Clearing her throat Setsuna bowed deeply towards Asuna and her charge "I am so terribly sorry for my… questionable actions. I must admit I felt… jealous"
Konoka pulled Setsuna up gently before she clung to her favourite guards arm
"Jealous huh? Why so~" Konoka said in a husky voice into Setsuna's ear
"U-uh well you see, I was feeling sad because you had found a new guard. On top of that I was disappointed in myself for even being jealous. Then it all got too much and before I knew it I was beginning to change" Setsuna said blushing looking at the ground
"Change?" Konoka and Asuna echoed simultaneously
"Ehe, well you see…" Setsuna said cheekily as she thought where to begin, as she tried in vain not to blush in Konoka's embrace
Hope no one is too disappointed in this chap. Next chap will be up this week! Xoxo~
