Chapter 7: She can't keep a secret for more than an hour
Recap:
"Rima, can you just for once, forget about everything that happened in the past and the fact that you're dating Kirishima and have some fun with me," (Nagihiko)
"Stop fooling yourself purple head! I like Kirishima and there is nothing you can't do about it!" (Rima)
"Can I … kiss you?" (Nagihiko)
"To think that you even had to ask!" (Rima)
"It was not totally according to plan." (Nagihiko)
"DUDE! WHAT DID YOU DO! I'm dying to know!" (Kukai)
"We kissed in the ferris wheel." (Nagihiko)
"Hello, I'm Fujisaki Nadeshiko." (Nadeshiko ?)
"Ne, Rima, what's up?" (Amu)
"Fujisaki Nadeshiko is back." (Rima)
"That's why it tickles me off. He's back being a female again, probably thinks he can approach me that way." (Rima)
"Nagi! Where the hell have you been the first lessons?" (Kukai)
"Rima, we are allowed to leave the campus and go clubbing, are you coming?" (Kirishima)
"If I come, and hear it right, IF I come, it will be for Kirishima, he's my boyfriend and I care for him." (Rima)
"Yes, yes. However it looked totally different last Saturday, now did it?" (Nagihiko)
"YOU BASTARD!" (Rima)
"Fujisaki Nagihiko, Mashiro Rima, Detention, this afternoon!" (Cafeteria head)
Rima's POV
Ughhh today just wouldn't end and it was, luckily the last lesson of the day, but considering I had detention, I wasn't going to leave the school building anytime soon. I shifted my stare from the board to the window and stared outside. It was nice wetter for the time of the year, not too cold and not too hot. I was wearing a dark skinny jeans with lose orange shirt and beige heels. It was one of the advantages of college, you were allowed to wear whatever you wanted and there were no more uniforms.
I looked at the teacher again who was desperately trying to explain some problem. The teacher had already troubled himself when he thought there would be a transfer student today, however it never appeared in class.
Since the cross-dresser was following his own third year classes right now. To think that purple-head was willing to go this far. It sickens me.
At least the bell rang and I hurried out of the classroom. Still one hour of detention to go with that purple-head. Wop-di-do
I arrived at the detention room only a little after him. He shot a smile at me, I shot him a glare.
"Mashiro Rima and Fujisaki Nagihiko. You are both present, please sit down." Sanjio Yukari told us.
Sanjio Yukari was a middle aged woman, actually Kairi's older sister who was in charge of the detention class, since me, Amu and Utau where sent here often, I know her pretty well and get usually dismissed easily.
Usually
"Since the two of you made a mess in the cafeteria, and you should praise yourself lucky that it didn't escalate into a food war, the two of you are odd to …. What? What is this for punishment?" Yukari yelled all of a sudden, while she inspected the detention form closely.
"Where are the whips and slavery? Grocery shopping for the rest of the week, no way the two of you are going to do that." I shot a little prayer to the skies, thank god for no shopping with the cross-dresser.
"Ugh, o well I guess it can't be helped. After you have sit here for half an hour, doing homework or so, the two of you can go shopping for this." She handed the purple-head a list, a rather long list.
"Doesn't the food gets delivered once every week?" I questioned her.
"It does, but these are her personal groceries. Well then have fun." And with that she left, door open, ready to sneak out and skip this so called detention.
"What was that? Does it always goes like this?" the person next to me asked. I only shot him a glare and stood up. I got the envelope with money and left the classroom, with him on my heels, finally shutting up.
Or so I thought.
*time skip*
All the way to the grocery store he kept asking stupid things about the wetter, school, basketball, what I did in my spare time, about Amu and Ikuto, about Utau and Kukai, he even asked about Yaya and Kairi.
And me, well I just continued to ignore his questions.
In the grocery store he continued this questioning routine. About the fruits, the vegetables, which one looked the best, I mostly just got a total different one and threw it in the basket.
I don't even understand why I'm still here with him, I could just have walked away and skipped detention and faced the problems, which were probably worse than grocery shopping but better than being with him, afterwards.
"Rima~ can you answer my question?" he tried again as I continued to ignore him. "Are you still angry with me?" He asked me childish. An irritation mark appeared on my head. He was pushing it again.
"Rima, just admit that you like me."
"FINE YOU KNOW WHAT! I HATE YOU! THANKS TO YOU I'M HERE MISSING EVERYTHING I HAD PLANNED FOR TODAY. So yes! I am angry with you!" I yelled at him.
"But even if you are missing the basketball practice you are still with me, so actually you don't miss anything, you can watch me now as much as you want as close as you want." His joke hit the wrong spot.
"I just can't believe you! Stupid cross-dresser. It is as simple as that, I don't come for you to that stupid basketball practice, but for Kirishima, because we were supposed to have a date today. But thanks to you and you're stupid irritating behaviour I'm here, grocery shopping for god's sake with you! A guy who is addicted to cross-dressing. A guy who is twenty and still likes to dress up like a girl. My god!"
He appeared to blush a bit. "Please Rima, I apologise. Don't scream, I don't want anyone except the group to know about it. You know that."
"Then stop doing it." I sneered at him.
"It was a family tradition, I couldn't help it. But it has stopped already? Remember?" He said, denying everything.
"My god, Nagi! Shut it out! It is not funny anymore. I know I have been pushing you away but you are pressing it! Before Saturday I even considered of being friends with you again? Why isn't that enough for you? I will say want I want to say, I have moved on. I want my life back, from before you came back. It was easy and quiet. Right now, I just hate having you around."
"What did I do to get you so pissed of today. You threw soda over me all of a sudden, okay I was being cheesy but admit it you like that part of me too."
He was still denying!
"That's it I'm out of here. If you don't want to admit it then you will taste my answer soon enough, Fujisaki!" And I stomped away.
Nagi's POV
And that was it, she just left me like that, not to mention that she took the envelope with money with her, meaning I had to pay it with my own money.
My stare followed her walking away, as her hair swept from the right to the left, it was so long and curly, I wonder if she still uses the same orange shampoo. I liked that.
I sighed, my love for her just couldn't waver, it was too strong and knowing that she is still not totally over me, was a reason why I still was trying, okay it seems like she hates me. But she doesn't I can see it in her slightest movements. There is always a small almost invisible blush on her face when she is around me. I smiled proud at myself.
After finishing the rest of the grocery shopping, I paid and left for home. Tomorrow a new day to win another part of her.
~ Next Day ~
It had been a pleasant silent night, no girlfriends staying over until late or staying over the night, no screaming and yelling in midnight and just an easy Thursday morning. I poured in some cereal for breakfast I opened a random magazine, which made me choke in my food and spit it out.
I threw the magazine away and quickly throw water in my face and looked in disgust at the magazine that laid close on the corner of the high table. (its like a bar, with bar chairs as chairs, you know what I mean?)
Who reads or even think about buying this kind of magazine?
"Nagi-kun~! Have you seen my magazine?"
Tadase in full glory, (not naked thank god) wearing a pink fluffy bathrobe and a green like horror mask on his face walked down the stairs.
"A- Tadase, your face.." I pointed at my face hesitantly.
"It has a black front with a- Oh goodie god, it's here! Thank you sweetie!" Tadase grabbed the magazine and walked back to the stairs and probably his room.
I'm going to delete that from my mind.
I looked at my breakfast, half eaten and notice that my appetite had left me. My gaze shifted towards the clock and the time read only a quarter to seven, still plenty of time before college starts.
I went to my room to get some sportswear and attired my running shoes.
"Time for a good morning run to clear my head." I said to myself and set on my headphones that connected with my iPod. (don't own) and put on some music.
It was dawn, and amazing weather, not too cold and not too hot just yet. The campus was big enough for a good hour long run.
I ran passed the sport fields and saw that the athletics had also started their training. Although it was just seven in the morning. As I passed the field I notice some stares and that some students shot me some looks.
Odd, but I decided not to care about it.
However I soon found out their weird behaviour. When I passed the first campus building I saw my head magnified on the billboard. I stopped in my tracks and read the text on it.
'VICE-CAPTAIN OF THE BASKETBALL TEAM NAGIHIKO FUJISAKI REVEALED!
OUT OF RELIABLE SOURCES WE HAVE LEARNED THAT OR NEW PRIDE HAS A DARK AND ODD SECRET HABIT.
FUJISAKI NAGIHIKO IS A CROSS-DRESSER WHO DRESSES UP AS A GIRL IN HIS SPARE TIME! GOING BY THE NAME FUJISAKI NADESHIKO, OUR SO CALLED NEW TRANSFER STUDENT.'
No-no-no this isn't good. Who placed this? The only ones who knew about this were the group and they would neve- Rima, she was rather mad at me yesterday, she knows how difficult this subject is for me, and how I do not want others to know about this. She knows that, she would never, right?
Actually judging her form her looks yesterday, she would be able to get back at me like this. But yet to go this far, I never expected that.
I tore the poster of the billboard and run further to see if there were more posters, and heck there where. In total I returned to the suite with over twenty posters threw them on the salon table and fell tired on the sofa.
"Yo Nagi! What kind of trash did you gather?" Kukai said sitting down on the armrest, picking up one of the posters.
Ikuto, Kairi and Tadase walked out of the kitchen into the living room as well.
"I should just give up on Rima. Look what she did to me, she tried to ruin and break me in front of the whole university."
"Dude this is big." Kukai said.
"She really went all out on you this time. But you know don't give up. Amu is right now within my grasp. It is possible."
"I don't plan on making it a 6 till 7 year plan, Ikuto."
"Neither did I, but hey, you never know how these things pass." I groaned.
"Luckily for you, you found out on time before it spread across the whole school." Kairi said.
"If I got them all, and the athletics have probably seen some of them. They were looking at me like I had murdered someone. How can she do this to me?"
"Tell me why does this say something about a new transfer student Fujisaki Nadeshiko?" Ikuto pointed the last line out.
I snatched a poster of the table, indeed the last line of the poster did say it. I felt their stares shift at me.
"Dude, don't tell me that you have been cross-dressing to get close to Rima, Nagi. I know you want her back but to be this desperate…"
I looked at them guilty.
Rima's POV
I groaned, the posters which I worked so hard on had all disappeared. The cross-dresser must have found them before school started.
But yet there were some student that had seen them and were gossiping, but many of the female students denied and didn't believe them.
I guess I had just a bit success in my revenge. I laughed silently.
"Rima, can we talk?" I turned around and see the cross-dresser a few steps away from me.
"Fujisaki."
"Was it you who spread the posters around the campus?"
"It wasn't that hard to figure out, now was it?" I smiled devilishly.
"I told you not to tell anyone, I told you that yesterday again, you promised me that! Did you really wanted to ruin me? You know that I don't want everyone to know."
"Actually yes I wanted, you have been hurting me ever since you returned, I do believe I had ever right to get back at you. Not to mention that you have been lying and denying about cross-dressing, I had every right to reveal it. Do you taste it?"
"So that was what this is about? Making a statement? Really now Rima."
"Maybe, or maybe I just want you to see that I don't like you. Face it, Nagihiko. I don't like liars."
"Fine then, I will get clean with you, but prepare yourself."
"I have been ever ready for the truth." I snapped back.
And chapter done! Woooot! Yay, party-poopers readied and…
Ikuto: and she is off-track once again.
Amu: Let her be in her own little world of fantasy.
Danime: Anyway, chapter 7 is done. I hope you liked it, so you can review, fave, alert, or criticize :)
Thank you and until the next chapter :D
