The Bet ( Lesbian Story)

Chapter 4: From the Other Side

    As nice as she has been the last two weeks something inside tugged at me. It was uncomfortable. When I was around her, I wouldn't dare admit that I was happy. After, she would leave something in the back of my mind worried me. I couldn't figure it out.

Our first few weeks of school we hated each other. Frankly, she just seemed overconfident and stuck up. She dressed like she had no morals, this was an all-girls school and one of the best in the area. My pride as student council president was on the line and I refused to let her sully our reputation. For weeks Yuzu pestered me. I couldn't get rid of her. She asked me out many times and I couldn't figure out why. The best thing I could do was turn her down. I didn't want to be involved with our school delinquent my reputation was too important and I refused to be won over by such an outrageous girl.

Just when I thought she finally gave up, she showed up again..I think.

"Oh, Miss President good morning." A dark hair girl greeted me. It took me a few moments to realize who she was. Dressed perfectly to code with exception to lip gloss it was her. Her hair even looked a more natural color.

"Yu-Yuzu-san. Good morning." I was speechless. Honestly, I didn't know her angle. But I intended to find out. I tried my best to hide that she made me smile, but it was useless. I would curse myself for that later.

Alone, later that night I sat up wondering about Yuzu-san and why she tried so hard. It did seem like she changed, but from the past has taught me is you can't trust people. Because of my status as chairman's granddaughter, certain families tried to push themselves into my life. Parents even convinced their children to befriend me, thinking that a young child had any say in anything. When I couldn't give them what they needed I was quickly discarded. It only took me twice to understand how being used worked. I vowed to never allow that to happen again. People only want one thing, power and my family had plenty. They didn't only run the school but had their hands in local government as well. As for my future, planned since birth. It was my duty as an Aihara to uphold the legacy bestowed upon me and I plan to fulfil it. No one will get in my way.

It was then I decided to take it upon myself to watch over Yuzu-san. If I kept a close watch on her I could prevent her from possibly ruining my reputation and the schools. It's the only choice I have. I won't let her get to me. I readied my vice president, Himeko with small bits of information about myself if Yuzu-san were to ask. My one and only friend questioned my motives but I explained it wasn't her concern, with that she left it alone. Keeping others at arm's length was necessary to move up in the world. Even though she was my closest friend I still found it difficult to completely open up to her.

Lately, Yuzu-san had acted so nicely to me and I let my guard down. She saw me smile, I couldn't help it. I was never the type of person to not say thank you for something hand made. The bento was delicious she made for me, but I couldn't admit to her I enjoyed it that much. Walking to meet with her after school she ran straight into me knocking me back and herself on the ground. Only to realize she was injured. My stomach gurgled, I never could handle blood and for some reason she found it amusing. That day was the first time we really talked even if it wasn't for very long. I felt heavy walking away from Yuzu-san. It was a feeling I never experienced before, I think I was looking forward to talking with her again.

When I arrived home that evening the house was quiet. I sat at my desk to perform the same routine as always. Homework first, call on the maid to prepare my dinner, then bath, then bed. For the first time in a long time, I felt really lonely. My whole body felt heavy. Maybe heavy wasn't the right word. I couldn't explain it properly, but I felt like I needed someone else to be here with me. Not a moment after, a blonde haired girl popped into my head. No, this can't be. I brushed thoughts of her aside, the only person I needed was me. Other's only drag you down. Quickly, I scribbled in my notepad only for my mind to randomly drift to thoughts of her. When I finally completed my homework, I decided to skip everything and head straight to bed. Maybe sleep would cure these odd thoughts...


"Come on, wake up!" My eyes peered open to a blonde dressed in a maid outfit. She wore a bright smile and a low cut skirt. When I was fully awake my cheeks flushed and I turned away.

"Yuzu-san! What, what are you doing in my home?? Why are you dressed like that? Put your proper uniform on" I said freaking out and unable to face her.

"What do you mean Miss? I'm here to fulfil your ever desire." She said winking at me.

"Huh??" I couldn't understand. There was no reason for this. I certainly didn't ask for this.

"Let me help you get dressed for school." Yuzu-san grinned trying to remove my blouse.

"Wait, no, stop!"


I shot up from my bed, soaked in sweat. What the hell was that about?? Did I really just have a dream about her?!?
