“No… wait… what?!” Makoto shouted then looks at the raven haired girl.
“I asked if you actually asked her out on a date yet.” Rei said grinning.
“W..why… do you think that… I’d… you know…ask her?” Makoto stuttering and gradually blushing. She was playing with the spoon on her right hand and slightly moving the cake on the side.
“It’s soooooo obvious that you like her Mako chan.” Rei answered then took a sip of her soda. “And everybody knows that you like her, even Usagi.”
“Everybody?” shouted Makoto and Rei coughed out the soda she was sipping. Almost all of the other customers turned around and looked at her. “Sorry…” addressing the people and Rei.
Makoto moved nearer to Rei and whispered, “Everybody?”
“Well almost everybody…” answered Rei while wiping her chin with a tissue.
“Huh? You said everybody. Who else doesn’t know about it?” Makoto puts her hand on Rei’s shoulders and starts shaking her.
The miko lets out a sigh and points outside.
Oh Kami no… It’s not… No… Shit… Kami… she’s so cute wearing that uniform… Stop thinking that! thought Makoto as a blond girl with a red bow talks outside with some of the boys that walked up to her. Shut up! Shut up! Stop talking to her you baka! They’re so pathetic, flirting with her like that. Makoto made a face.
Makoto’s face turned red, not because she was blushing, because she was getting really jealous and angry. To ease her anger, she popped her earphones to her ear and pushed play. A familiar song began…
… Invitation only, grand farewells
Crash the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight
You have stolen my heart
And from the ballroom floor we are in celebration
One good stretch before our hibernation
Our dreams assured and we all, will sleep well
You have stolen
You have stolen my heart
I watch you spin around in your highest heels
You are the best one, of the best ones
We all look like we feel
You have stolen my
You have stolen my heart…
This is torture. Well only to me and besides its working. It makes me sad but at least I can control what I’m feeling after. You’re so emo Makoto! Thought Makoto as she was staring at Minako through the window.
Rei was smirking and an imaginary devil horns grew through her hair. An idea popped in her head and she would need accomplices to make this work.
“Ehem…” Rei coughed.
No answer.
“EHEM!” Rei repeated now slamming the table a little bit.
Makoto was startled. She got up and shouted, “WHAT?!?”
The people started staring again. They looked at Makoto.
Rei pointed out to Makoto’s ear. Makoto realized that she was still listening full blast at the song, she took off the earphones, sat again and looked at Rei.
“So she stole your heart, what you gonna do about it?” Rei was chuckling then she pointed outside to the blonde that was walking nearer to the entrance of the Crown.
“Shit! You heard that? Was the volume that loud?” Makoto blushed then faced palm herself.
As Rei was nodding, Minako walked over to their seats.
“Hi guys!!!” Minako cheerfully greeted the two.
Makoto slid her iPod under the table and was having a hard time turning off the gadget. As she finally turned it off, she sighed with relief. She looked at Rei, who was smirking and signaled to the left with her eyes, and then she looked to the left and Minako was looking at her quizzically. Makoto blushed.
“What’s the matter my Makochan?” asked the blond.
Did she just say my Mako? Oh shush it Makoto. She would never call you that. That eyes… Those red… red… lips… Stop it. Control yourself! Makoto thought and her heartbeat became faster and her face redder. “N..n..nothing.” she stuttered.
“Are you sure? You don’t seem fine. Scoot over dear…” Minako pushed Makoto more over to the window side. “Ooooh… strawberry shortcake!” and got the spoon from Makoto and ate the cake.
Makoto’s head was still down, she seemed paralyzed and she was still blushing… a lot.
“Those boys are funny. They had to be in a group just to approach me. Ha-ha.” Minako said still eating the cake. “Two of them asked me if I could go out for a date tomorrow and I said I don’t know. They almost fought each other.” She was smiling.
“Don’t you like at least one of them?” Asked the miko, then she looked at Makoto.
“Nah… I really don’t like those types of guys.” Licking the spoon of the last crumbs of the cake.
“If you’re that picky, you won’t have a date on Valentine’s.” Rei said.
“You know that won’t be a problem. Besides it’s couple weeks away anyway.” Answering Rei confidently.
While they were talking, a part of the song kept playing on Makoto’s head.
… Invitation only, grand farewells
Crash the best one, of the best ones
Clear liquor and cloudy eyed, too early to say goodnight…
“Right….” Rei rolling her eyes then she kicked Makoto’s shin under the table.
Then suddenly Makoto stood up excused herself and ran outside the Crown.
“What the hell is wrong with that girl?!” Minako asked Rei, irritated.
“I don’t know. Ask her yourself.” Rei smiling evilly and then she remembered something, “Oh we got to get going or will be late for our study group.” Rei stood up.
“Oh right.” Answered Minako and went with the miko.
