I peered around the corner as the bubbly tealette bounced her pony tails along aside the other bubbly blonde. Most beautiful she is! Nice features, a beautiful smile, and robber of my heart. One day! One day! I always tell myself.
I jump out of my hiding spot and follow the girls. "Hey, Miku!" I call with my wide smile and that sprinkle of blush. "A-and hi, Rin!" I tell her, too.
They both turn around with smiles-Miku more than Rin. "Hi, Luka!" Miku says, widening her smile. I began walking with them. "So what are you doing, Luka?" Miku asks me as I look to the ever so grimacing Gakupo.
"Nothing before, but hanging with you guys now!" I tell them.
I look at Rin and she scoffs quietly to herself. I feel my cheeks burn up. How rude can she get today? Despite her cute appearance, she is quite the rude person towards me, plus I always get the vibe she's hiding something under all the cutesy exterior, but you never really know, I guess...
"Oh, hey, Rin!" I begin, "Did you know that they're having a sale on oranges at the market this evening?"
Rin looks at me with semi-bright eyes and shakes her head no.
I laugh a little. "Well, maybe You, Miku, Len, Piko, and I can all go down there after school!" I suggest.
Miku looks at me from above Rin's head-somewhat- and shook her head. Why, though? We're all friends, aren't we? Or does Rin like Piko? Oh! That must be it!
"Sure, why not..." Rin answers. Miku looks at Rin with wide eyes while I just smiled.
I back up a little. "Well, I oughta get back to class! See you later!" I say and begin walking back to my class room while listening to their faint good byes as I walked away from them.
How weird, though... I would guess Rin has a crush on Piko... maybe she just doesn't like him all that much... but why would I get a slight glimpse of her blushing then? Plus, Rin is always mean towards Piko. This makes no since! Maybe she has a crush on... Len? Nah, I doubt it! It probably is Piko...
I'm in my class paying my full attention to the teacher, but also finding time in between to take in what happened and why Rin would pass up an opportunity for ORANGES, I mean, every time someone said oranges you'd always see Rin there with Len or Miku! Rin must spend all her money on oranges! Okay, I actually seriously believe she doesn't spend it ALL on oranges, but probably a large portion of her cash! Just like I spend a large portion of my cash on tuna!...Don't ask...
Okay, enough about that, learning is my priority right now! I have to get in the concentration dome that is school! Okay! Okay! I got this! My dream of being the best student/student council member mostly depends on my grades! So what better way then learning right from the source? Yes! I am so smart! And to believe I almost went to a different school because of my pride and my belief that I was too smart for this school! Ha! Thank goodness I was convinced by one of my best friends to come here and spend this adolescent times with them! I'm half thankful I'm here or I might've never met Miku and fallen in love with her, but be caught in this unbelievable love chart with various relationships that are quite complicated!
"Megurine? Are you paying attention?" Asked my teacher as he snaps me from my dream world.
I blink a couple times to realize the entire class was looking at my direction due to my lack of attention. "Um... o-of course!" I say with a nervous laugh at the end. The teacher shook his head and continued teaching the listen.
To my dismay, I still couldn't keep my attention to the lesson, I just zoned out again, but to my knowledge this time.
Wait, does Miku have a crush on Len? How would that even work?! Miku likes Len, Len is dating Neru, I like Miku, and Rin likes Piko! Is that it? I drew in my notebook on what I thought it could be, but just couldn't find of the relationships working out in a proper manner! Maybe I got it all wrong... Rin likes Len, Miku likes Rin, Piko likes Rin, Len likes no one, Neru likes Len, and then I like Miku. I seriously doubt it, Rin and Len are twins! Why would Rin like Len?! That's biologically impossible! Unless they aren't actually siblings... But they look exactly the same! It is interesting, and I would like to look into it some more, if possible, but I know they both would think I'm very strange, which I am, I admit, but probably not as weird as that.
Riiiiiiiiiiiing Riiiiiiiiiiiing Riiiiiiiiiiiing
Ah, class is finished! Even though I didn't really pay attention, I still feel like I learned a lot, even if it wasn't about the subject.
I get up out of my chair and grabbed my bag then rushed to Miku's classroom so we could walk home together. When I looked into the classroom I saw something I wish I could forget and never see again until I die...
Miku was sitting, with Len, blushing about god knows what! And the worst part... she was smiling...
I instantly felt every bone in my body just shatter at the sight of those two together...
I left and walked to the kendo club room where they were just sitting around in chairs and laughing about god knows what!
"Oh, Luka! Come and join us!" says the always joyous Gakupo. I nod and walk over and sit in a chair. Honestly, I was confused on the fact that everyone was just sitting around and not getting ready for practice today. "Oh, by the way, Luka, practice is canceled today since the leader is sick today," Gakupo says like he just read my mind.
"Oh, okay," I reply and just kind of doze off.
"Oh! Luka!" says a voice behind me. I look behind me and my other best friend in, which I met a very long time ago and have always been together with, Neru, is there. She puts her bag in the corner with the rest of the bags and then sits by me. "I was thinking that after practice you can help me pack some nice clothes for my aunts wedding in a couple days," she says.
I look at her with a smile. "Of course!" I say with a smile.
"Also," she begins as she looks down at her hands, "do you think you can come with me?"
I am taken back. "Um, I thought you were going to go with Len," I say, hoping not to have been saying the wrong thing.
She looked liked she was about to cry, but quickly smiled that always happy smile that she has. "Something came up for him..." she says.
I nod. "I can ask my parents, but I might have work that night..." I tell her.
She nods.
"Okay! Since Momo isn't here today, I will be running the club today!" Gakupo states as he stands up from his chair. Everyone looks at Gakupo like he's crazy, since most of the boys call him a girl do to his extremely long hair (in reality, they are just jealous because Gakupo is hot, and this is coming from a lesbian). "So today, we will get in pairs of three and share ten fun facts about each other that at least one of the other people in the group didn't know!" He says.
I feel my arm link with Neru's, but don't know who will take the other one since Momo isn't here.
"GO!" Gakupo yells.
My other arm is instantly grabbed by another. Who? Yes, Miku. I look at her as she frowns at Neru. "Luka, be in my group!" she says.
"Luka already promised to be in my group!" Neru yells at her,
Whoa, since when did Miku and Neru hate each others guts to the point of murder?
"We'll just be one group," I say.
"But-" they say in unison, but then I give them the evil eye and they shut up.
We sit in a circle in the chairs and you could just see the electric between them radiate the hatred for each other.
"I'll go first," Neru said. Miku scoffed. Neru scowled and continued. "One, I live with my grandma. Two, my parents died in a car crash. Three, my sister committed suicide when she was very young so I never was able to meet her. Four, I love to sing in my bedroom. Five, my older brother doesn't usually come home much anymore. Six, I have a brother. Seven, I have six goldfish. Eight, I have three dogs. Nine, I have two cats. Ten, I have four turtles."
I nodded. "Great, Miku?"
Miku sighed. "One, I love anime, manga, and video games. Two, my favorite food is leeks. Three, I'm single. Four, kendo is my favorite thing, besides leeks. Five, I live with my six sisters. Six, I love singing. Seven, I don't have a lot of friends. Eight, I'm allergic to dogs. Nine, I suck at make-up. Ten, I'm a lesbian."
Neru, crossed her arms while I felt the twinkle in my eyes fill up, but I shake it off because it's my turn.
"Okay, so it is my turn now..." I say. "One, I live with my dad, his wife, and my step brother. Two, my mother is in jail for drugs. Three, if I don't do something right at home, my step mom yells at me and sometimes hits me. Four, I have a garden with many plants. Five, I'm single. Six, I think Gakupo is trying to flirt with me, but I can't tell. Seven, I over think things. Eight, I have a pet chicken. Nine, I love pokemon. Ten, I can play the piano."
"So... what now?" Neru asks.
What now? That is a pretty good question. I stand up. "I'll go ask Gakupo," I say and walk to the purple haired boy standing up while crossing his arms. "Gakupo? What would you like us to do, since we are done?" I ask.
He looks like he is thinking for a moment, but then says, "You guys can go home."
I smile and nod. "Okay, thank you, Gakupo," I say to him and bow. When I am finished I walk back over to my friends and say to them, "We can leave now." They both nod and got up from their chairs.
"So, Luka, are we gonna go buy some oranges with Rinny today or what" Miku asks when we are on the way to my classroom, together, no one else, just Miku and I.
I blush. "Um... actually, I remembered that I really need to get home tonight, it is my father and my step-mother's anniversary tonight and I promised I would make them some dinner to celebrate," I explain to her. This was actually a lie, it wasn't their anniversary, I can't cook, and if my parents wanted something to eat, they wouldn't give me any of it, they just believe I'm a nuisance, especially my step-mom, and they think I should runaway and never come back. Heck, if someone ever shoots me and I die, I bet they wouldn't even come to my funeral, let alone help arrange it. They are just two completely selfish people.
"Oh, sorry, I didn't know," Miku says.
We are in my classroom and I grab my bag, then we go down to Miku's room and get her bag. As we stop in Miku's classroom, we stop and watch the boy outside play soccer.
"Okay, so who looks the best playing?" I ask with a giggle as I sit on the windowsill. Since we are on the first floor, we have a great view of them playing, well, sorta.
Miku sits with me and looks out at them. "Hm... I'll have to say Len, because we all know Len is the best player and the cutest boy," Miku replies.
I nod. "True, true," I agree.
We sit for a few more minutes talking about the sweaty boys running around and looking cute. It was actually kind of fun since I never get to hang around with Miku this much after school.
"Oh, you should be getting home, right?" Miku says.
I nod and get up from the sill. "I'll be leaving first then," I say. Miku nods.
I am about to reach the door when I hear Miku say, "Wait..." I look up and there she is, just a little lower from me with her pink lips out, her eyes sparkling like they always do, and he hair gently swaying with the gentle breeze from the window. Half tempted to kiss her, I hold myself back. "Let me walk you out," she says. I nod. We go to our lockers and then leave with our things.
Friends? I don't care. As long as you're happy, I'm happy. At least let me tell you how I really feel.
