After school, Keiji and Yukimura were discussing about their prank for about ten minutes. They sat down on a picnic table, waiting for the rest to come.
"I'll bring her and then you'll bring Mitsunari. Okay?" Keiji told Yukimura. He nodded his head and smiled.
"Okay," he whispered, giggling softly. Then Kiyomasa, Sakon, and Kanetsugu walked to them.
"Shh! Be quiet before they know that we're up to no good," Keiji said softly. Yukimura quickly stopped giggling. They both listened to their other friend's commotions.
"The boats already been paid for," they heard Sakon say.
"And it's this Saturday, right?" Kiyomasa asked him.
"Yup," he replied, as they approached Yukimura and Keiji.
Oh boy! I wonder if they're going boat riding, Keiji thought to himself.
"What are you guys talking about?" Yukimura asked them.
"We're going boat riding on Saturday," Sakon replied. "You guys wanna tag along?"
"Oooh! Yeah! Yeah! I want to go!" Yukimura shouted, jumping with a big smile.
"Shore," Keiji said, with a high pitched voice. He meant to say 'sure' but he said it in a fancy way. "Why not?"
"Stop jumping already! You look so gay," Mitsunari said to Yukimura. He and Masanori barely came to them. Mitsunari looked pissed off and Masanori had a big smile on his face. Yukimura stopped jumping and stuck his tongue at Mitsunari. Then he crossed his arms and turned away.
"Where have you two been?" Kanetsugu asked them. "We waited and waited for you guys, but you guys never came, so we left."
Mitsunari turned to Masanori with a mad face. "This bitch got us in trouble!" he shouted, as Masanori laughed.
"What did he do?" Kiyomasa asked, smiling.
"He freaken kept bothering me when we were supposed to be quiet!" he shouted. Then he began telling them how they got in trouble.
*Flashback*
In their last class in 8th period, everyone had to be quiet and come up with three tactics. It was their politic class and their teacher was going to collet it at the end of the period. Mitsunari sat three desk in front of Masanori, but over to the left one desk.
"Pssst. Mitsunari," Masanori whispered. Mitsunari ignored him and continued writing. Suddenly, Masanori spitted out a spit ball at him.
He turned madly, and whispered, "What do you want?"
"Hi," Masanori whispered, smiling and waving hi to him.
"Mitsunari! Masanori! Didn't I tell everyone that there shall be no talking?" shouted the teacher, Mr. Tokugawa.
"Sorry," Masanori said, as he began doing his work.
"He kept-" Mitsunari started, but was interrupted.
"I don't care what he did or what you guys did!" said Mr. Tokugawa. "Just be quiet!" Mitsunari turned angrily to Masanori, but Masanori didn't even bother looking at him. "And turn around!" Mr. Tokugawa snapped, as Mitsunari turned back and worked on his tactics again.
Five minutes later, Masanori called his name again. "Psssssst. Mitsunari," he whispered, snickering softly.
Stupid bitch, Mitsunari thought. I am not going to risk getting in trouble again!
"Pssst! Can you hear me?" he whispered again. "Nari?"
Mitsunari continued working and ignored Masanori. Then Masanori started breaking his erasers into tiny pieces and began throwing it at Mitsunari one by one. Mitsunari moved a couple times, but Masanori didn't stop throwing it at him. Finally, he got very mad.
"Quit fucking doing that!" he shouted, as Masanori quickly picked up his pencil and began writing to make it seem like he didn't do anything.
"Be quiet!" Mr. Tokugawa shouted, looking at him.
"He was throwing-" he said, but was interrupted again.
"I don't care! Just do your work! Gosh!" Mr. Tokugawa shouted again. He told Mitsunari that if he disrupted the class one more time, he will be in trouble.
Mitsunari was super mad at Masanori now. That fucker is going to get it afterschool, he thought. Ten minutes later, he felt something land on his head. He took it off and it was a piece of crumpled paper. He heard Masanori snickering softly, but did not even bother turning around to look at him. He opened the crumpled paper and it said "Help Me." Fuck you, he thought madly. You just got me in trouble two times and you still dare ask me for help? Hell to the fucken no!
Then he looked down on his paper and didn't care about his surroundings. He flicked Masanori off without taking his eyes off his paper. Suddenly, Mr. Tokugawa cleared his throat loud enough so everyone could hear. He was right in front of Mitsunari's desk and it looked like Mitsunari was flicking him off.
Mitsunari quickly stopped doing that, as Masanori laughed so much. As a punishment afterschool, Mitsunari had to write "I will not disrupt the class again" thirty times on a piece of line paper, and Masanori had to put his head down for ten minutes because he laughed at Mitsunari's poor behavior.
As Mitsunari was writing "I will not disrupt the class again", Masanori was peeking at him with one eye, and was snickering so much. He thought it was very funny but Mitsunari was literally mad at him.
*Present*
"I would've kicked your ass, but there were security guards around," Mitsunari said to Masanori, as they all entered the mall. They all laughed at Mitsunari's story. Mitsunari did not even remember them walking to the mall in the first place, so he said, "And what the heck are we doing here anyways?"
"I'm buying you guys some ice cream," Kanetsugu said to him. "Didn't you hear us talking about it?"
Mitsunari sighed. "Why ice cream?" he replied. "I'm so freaken mad right now, I don't even want to eat sweets!"
"Because I asked him to buy us some," Yukimura told him, smiling. "I can't wait for my mouth to dive into the delicious mint chocolate chip ice cream!" Keiji laughed at Yukimura. He was too cute sometimes. "And I want gummy bears, gummy worms, m&m's, skittles, and frosting on my ice cream!" Yukimura finished, smiling.
They all headed to Shibata's Devil Ice Cream Shop. Yukimura was so excited that he began jumping in place, as people looked at him.
"Quit jumping," Mitsunari told him. "You're embarrassing us!"
"No!" Yukimura replied, taunting him.
Keiji laughed and said, "You are not embarrassed of Sanada. You are only embarrassed of yourself." They all laughed at Keiji's comment, but Mitsunari rolled his eyes. When they went inside Shibata's Devil Ice Cream Shop, Yukimura was the very first one to order. Right before he finished ordering, he turned to Kanetsugu.
"Can I make it double scooped?" he asked, making a cute face. Kanetsugu nodded his head yes, as Yukimura jumped up with joy. Mitsunari rolled his eyes again.
In a bit, they all got their ice cream, except for Mitsunari.
"Are you sure you don't want one?" Kanetsugu asked him. "It's really good."
"I'm sure," he replied, watching Yukimura eat his ice cream. He slurped and licked his ice cream, which made Mitsunari feel disgusted. He mugged Yukimura and said, "Disgusting…"
Keiji thought of an idea. "Get him a happy meal," he said, laughing, as the rest laughed too.
"Hahaha! Good one, Keiji," Sakon said to him, as they did their hand shake.
"No!" Mitsunari shouted.
"Are you really, really sure?" Kanetsugu asked again.
"Yes," he replied. "I just don't feel like eating anything right now."
"Okay then," said Kanetsugu.
Finally, four days had passed. It was Friday, the day that Keiji and Yukimura had been waiting for. Keiji walked to the quad at lunch and found Marshaquadee. She was sitting down on a table.
"Hey," he said, "Can I talk to you for a minute?"
"Sure," she said. She was much nicer than when he had first met her. He told her about how he pushed Suzy and how she landed and got stuck on the top of the English building. She laughed a lot. As a gift, she gave him a cigarette.
Never in his whole life had he ever smoked before. He knew it would be a bad idea to take it but he took it anyways. He wanted to try it one time only, just to see how it tasted like. Then he told Marshaquadee that Mitsunari had a big crush on her and that he wanted her to go and hang out with them today. She agreed because she was curious to know who Mitsunari was.
"So yeah," Keiji told her. "Just meet us at Toyotomi's Spicy Buffet at six o' clock."
"Alright," she said. Then they departed. Keiji walked and saw Yukimura walking after Mitsunari. He quickly hid behind a bush and listened to their commotions.
"Aww, come on!" Yukimura shouted. "If you don't go, I will be very sad!"
Mitsunari stopped walking and looked at Yukimura. "Why?" he shouted.
"Because," Yukimura said, making his innocent face. "It will be very fun if you go."
"What's the freaken difference between you going on your own and me going with you?" Mitsunari asked. He was very annoyed.
"The difference is that if you don't go, I will cry," Yukimura responded. He made a very sad face.
Mitsunari quickly laughed and stopped. "So? Go ahead and cry! I don't care!" he shouted. He began to walk away again.
Suddenly Yukimura began to cry. It wasn't just a soft cry; it was a loud cry. Everyone looked at them. From behind the bush, Keiji knew that Yukimura was only faking so Mitsunari will go. He secretly laughed.
Mitsunari turned back to Yukimura. Yukimura had the saddest face ever. "Stop crying!" he shouted, as Yukimura cried even louder. He did not know what to do now. Damn was Yukimura annoying the hell out of him. Finally, Mitsunari took a deep breath and said, "If you don't shut up, then I'm not going to go with you!"
After he said that, Yukimura stopped crying. He wiped his tears and said, "So, are you going to go with me then?"
"You already know the answer!" he shouted, and quickly left before he ended up yelling at him some more. Yukimura smiled happily, as Keiji came out behind the bush. Yukimura saw him and did two thumbs up to him. They walked to each other and did high-fives.
"You were great!" Keiji shouted, as Yukimura had a big smile.
At five-thirty, Keiji borrowed his mom's car and headed to Toyotomi's Spicy Buffet alone and got there in twenty minutes. He parked the car between two huge vans. From the mirror, he saw Yukimura's dad's car park in front of the buffet. Yukimura and Mitsunari came out and went inside the buffet, as Yukimura's dad took off. After Yukimura and Mitsunari went inside the buffet, Marshaquadee arrived. Keiji got out of his car and walked to her.
Meanwhile, Yukimura and Mitsunari sat down. Yukimura told Mitsunari that Keiji was going to come too and that he should be there any minute now. For some reason when Yukimura said that, Mitsunari had a bad feeling about it. In two minutes, Keiji came in with a tallass girl!
"Who the heck is she?" Mitsunari asked Yukimura. "Is she his girlfriend or what?" Yukimura shrugged his shoulders and looked down. "Tch. They sure do make a great couple, don't you think?" he said again.
Once again, Yukimura shrugged his shoulders. He felt very guilty inside. Then Keiji and Marshaquadee walked to them. Keiji sat in front of Yukimura and Marshaquadee sat in front of Mitsunari. Then they all made their way to get their food. When Mitsunari wasn't looking, Keiji quickly grabbed Yukimura.
"Let's go!" he whispered, as Yukimura nodded his head. Before they left, Yukimura quickly grabbed a spicy chicken thigh. Keiji laughed softly so Mitsunari wouldn't hear. Man, Yukimura was too funny! When they got to the exit door, Keiji quickly gave the cashier $60 and told them that it was for Mitsunari's table. He even told them to keep the change.
Outside, Keiji and Yukimura quickly got inside Keiji's mom's car. They turned on the radio and the song Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO began playing, as Keiji quickly drove off. They both laughed a lot, thinking how funny it was. They drove to the downtown plaza and parked. Then Keiji took out the cigarette that Marshaquadee gave him earlier. Yukimura's eyes quickly enlarged.
"What are you doing?" he asked, eating his chicken thigh.
"Oh Sanada. I'm just going to try this," Keiji told him. He also said that in life, you should experience as much as you could before you die. Yukimura thought that it was reasonable idea so he didn't object to Keiji smoking.
Keiji found a lighter in the car and lit the cigarette. Then he put it in his mouth and sipped it. It was hella nasty. He coughed a couple times and laughed.
"Are you okay?" Yukimura asked him. He told Yukimura that he was fine and sipped on it again. Pretty soon, he started acting weird.
All of a sudden, Yukimura got a text from Mitsunari. Yukimura read it and it said "Where the fuck did you two bitches go?"
Yukimura got scared. "Keiji, what should I write?" he asked, showing the text to Keiji. Keiji smiled and told him to ignore it. "Are you sure?" he asked again.
"Yeahhhh," Keiji said loudly. "It'll be fine, Sanada. I'm sure he's having a great time! And it's not good to bother someone while they're out on a date!"
Yukimura thought for a second. He listened to Keiji. Then Keiji told him that during their sleepover, he was going to play pranks on him with his metro phone, but decided not to, because Yukimura was his favorite friend. It touched Yukimura very much and he smiled.
"You're my favorite friend too," Yukimura replied. In a bit, Keiji decided to call Kanetsugu. It rang four times and he picked up.
"Hello," Kanetsugu said.
"Hey Kanetsugu," Keiji said smiling. "Do you think you can do something for Mitsunari?"
"Do what?" he asked.
"You see, Mitsunari is out on a date and needs a ride home. Do you think you can pick him up?" Keiji lied.
"Oh, sure. Why not? I just got out from work and it wouldn't hurt to drop him home," Kanetsugu said, amazed. "And who's his girlfriend? How come he never told me that he had one?"
"They just barely started dating," said Keiji, trying not to laugh. "It's their first date."
"Okay then. Where is he at?" Kanetsugu asked. Keiji told him that Mitsunari was at Toyotomi's Spicy Buffet and to pick him up at 8:00pm. Right now was 7:35pm. Keiji thanked him and then they hung up.
In five minutes, Keiji's phone rang. He looked at his phone and threw the cigarette outside the window. Mitsunari was calling him. Yukimura's eyes went huge again, as he had a big smile on his face.
"Watch this, Sanada," Keiji said, as he picked up and made a professional voice. "Hello. You've reached the voicemail of Keiji Maeda. I'm not available right now so please leave a message after the tone. Beep."
"Stupid bitch!" Mitsunari yelled. "I know that this isn't the voicemail! I'm not stupid! And why the fuck did you two shitheads fucken ditch me? Huh?"
They both snickered a lot. Then Keiji said, "Dude, chill. It was only just a joke."
"Well it's not fucken funny!" Mitsunari shouted. "Do you two know how fucken mad I am? And now I don't have a freaken ride home because both my parents are working and because you two fucken fags decided to ditch me!"
"Don't worry!" Keiji said to him. "Kanetsugu's on his way to pick you up right now."
"Why the hell did you freaken lie to her that I had a crush on her, huh? She was not cute at all!" he shouted again. Keiji laughed and laughed.
"It was funny!" he said to Mitsunari. "And I'm sorry okay?"
"Would you freaken like it if I did it to you?" he yelled.
Keiji laughed again. "No, but I would just laugh it out. It was only meant to be funny so just laugh. Okay?"
"No!" Mitsunari shouted. "When I freaken see you guys, I'm going to kick both your asses! And Yukimura, I know you can hear me too so you better be prepared because when I see you, your face is going to be different!" Then he hung up.
Keiji kept laughing and laughing but Yukimura didn't. He was scared now. He pictured himself getting beat by Mitsunari. He didn't want that to happen.
