Everything was well earlier until a stupid argument came in between us. First of all, guess what? I finally passed the test!
At first, I stood in front of the bulletin board; both limbs were trembling and shaking out of what my willpower could control. Right now, I looked as pathetic as a little lamb ready to be slayed. My eyelids stretched in high pressure shutting my eyes from the result that I fear to see. I clapped my hands together in front of my chest and pray. "Kami-sama, even though no matter how many times my requests go unheard by you, only this time, I plead you wholeheartedly to grant this little wish of mine. Please let me pass this test if not with beautiful color, let it be a descent color." I said quietly.
"Congratulations. You make it through." A quiet voice sounded beside me. I make it through? Really? no joke? My eyes flutter open and my head snapped to the voice beside me. Standing beside me is Akashi Seijuuro, his arms crossed leaning against the bulletin board. His eyes were shut. Even so, he emitted an aura of wisdom which drew my heart's attention. Everything clicked. Just when I was praying to the God, he came. As if he answered my prayers or to be precise, he is the creature God sent to the earth to fulfill my wishes.
" Thanks to you Akashi-kun." I said with a warm smile even though I am pretty sure he couldn't see them.
"Aren't you going to see it for yourself?" he nonchalantly said.
"No, I have faith in your words and yourself." I replied with a genuine smile.
He smirked and turned around to leave. Evil bastard. Are you going to leave me again after flashing me a smirk? I pouted and slowly take a baby step run towards him. When I reached his side, I slowed down and walked side by side with him.
"Akashi-kun I was thinking of treating you for a simple meal…" I was cut off by him.
"Save them for yourself. I have no time for that." He said ruthlessly. Didn't it ever cross his complicated mind that the words he loosely sprouted were ruthless rejections and heartbreaks?
"But I insist!" I said, standing firmly on my grounds a.k.a being stubborn.
"And I insist on you keeping them for yourself." Yes, pretty harsh. But I ain't give up.
"Come on! You should be rewarded for your hard work! Don't you think so?"
"I already received my rewards." He said and quicken his pace. I have a hard time catching up with him and mind you, I am doing multitask, no tripletask perhaps. I have to follow up with both his already-consider-long legs, come up with somewhat reasonable reasons to persuade him and to say those reasons out.
"But I don't remember giving you anything yet and worst of all, I hate owing favor to someone! Do me a favor and please stop being a thick headed and accept my gratitude!"
"my answer is still 'No' find somebody else." He said and before I could shoot him with more of my arguments, my mouth was sealed by a sharp pain on my forehead and my butt. I groaned.
"I am sorry." Came an apologetic voice. I slowly open my eyes and massage my aching forehead scrolling the area to find my attacker. I am going to give him a load of scolding if I were to find him. I find it intolerable for someone to hit me on my forehead and give me a butt fall and leave irresponsibly.
"I am sorry, are you okay miss?"
"Yeah I am okay what..?!" I shrieked in full surprise. "You! Since when are you here?!" I pointed to the boy who is squatting beside me.
"I have been standing here all the while Miss. Is your forehead alright?" he asked politely and helping me to stand.
"Yes, it is very sweet of you to give me a scare after the fall you give me. As sweet as an adult whom has hit a kid and shut them with a lollipop candy. " I said after I stood up, eyes leveled his as my hands dusted my skirt and soothed my butt in the process. My voice is laced with sarcasm and he flinched at my sarcasm.
"I am sorry, do you need to visit the infirmary? i don't mean to scare you. I was walking and you were trying to walk over me." Ah, so you are trying to blame me? is that so?
"I am fine now. I am going back to the class." I said and leave the boy without any farewell.
"I am sorry for being late." I said as I slide the door to my classroom. My brow arched as I heard somebody else's voice repeated after me. I looked to my side. It was the boy from before! Did he feel overly guilty and stalked me to my class to apologize again?
"Imayoshi, Kuroko, please come in, you both are 13 minutes late." We both walked into the class and marched to our seat. I keep my eyes on him the whole time. He sat 2 tables beside me meaning, he sat beside Akashi. My God, did I finally have a stalker? Oh! No! I quietly took out my cell phone and texted Akashi.
To : Akashi
Subject : Akashi-kun! Help me! I am being stalked!
Almost 2 minutes passed and Akashi did not even make an attempt to read my messages. I spammed him the whole Math period yet he did not budge an inch. Very good, are you playing endurance game with me? The spams go on until our teacher walked out of the class.
"What do you want?" he turned to me and almost snapped at me.
"I have something to tell you." I whispered.
"I am all ears" he said. I look to my right and left.
"I am being stalked" I whispered again.
"Stalk?" his brow arched. I shhhed him and slap his arm lightly. My eyes focused to the boy sitting beside Akashi. He followed my gaze and sighed.
"he has been our classmate since the beginning of the year."
"REAllY?!" since the beginning of the year?! Oh my! This is embarrassing! Our next teacher walked in and I quickly went back to my place. I flashed apologetic glance at the boy before I settled down in my seat. I have just called someone a stalker without reason!
After I finished my homework, I lied on my bed, in my pajamas, hugging my forearm length teddy bear. My mind rushed back to the embarrassing incident today. I later found out from my friend that he is a member of basketball club. Meaning, he is Akashi's team mate which add another load of guilt on my not so broad shoulder. Not only did I look stupid in front of Akashi, I look ignorant and insensitive to him. My dignity shrunk down to negative zero percent.
I rolled from one side of the bed to another side of the bed. I can't sleep. My cheeks burned like a microwave would. I can't do this anymore. I sat up on my bed and reached for my cellphone, scrolling up my notification, hoping to distract myself. Oh no! This can't go on. Tomorrow is Saturday, so, I am not very worried about sleeping late. An idea pops up into my mind.
I slipped into a pair of pink pig fluffy slipper and climbed down the spiral staircase in our mansion to carry out my plan. My family members who was still having their dinner looked up at me. I always skip dinner by the way. Well, I have a shit family bond. They are so busy in the day and only free at night to sit down around the table for dinner and I am being inappreciative to skip dinner. Well, if I were to tell you that I am being ignored as if I am invisible, would you still like to eat dinner with them? They talk among themselves and talk about something I don't understand.
"Where are you going honey?" my dad asked gently.
"Sleepover!" I answered with a silly grin halfway through the stairs.
"Sleepover at this late hour?!" he asked in disbelief everyone who was looking at me earlier was now furrowing their brow as if I had grown 3 heads and 5 eyes.
"yeah! I am borrowing our driver and butler!" I said as I reached the bottom of the stairs.
"No! Gaia! Come back here! I need explanation from you! Your gran…" he started to yell at me.
"Honey, let her be, it is just a simple sleepover. We were in the middle of discussing Gia's trip weren't we?" Mom quickly cut him off and drew dad's attention back. Whatever your intention is, I am grateful.

A/N : so, to my dear lovely readers from chapter one to this chapter, I have changed the plot. I had the plot figured out earlier.
