High school as told by Ariel

No, i have not

nothing hurts like compared to a heartache.

I mean it.

"Oi, Ariel? have you been listening to me?" Sousuke said.

"oh sorry! say that again, I got distracted again" I said, nervously chuckling while i scratched my neck.

"not safe for work, aren't you?" Sousuke repeated.

"not safe at all" I said.

Sousuke chuckled, "you're cute".

Sousuke kissed my cheek.

"Onii chan! what are you doing! you can't just force Makoto-kun to race! especially just for Ariel!" Kou shouted.

Kou moaned loudly as her big bro dived into the pool.

"You have got to be kidding me, You're eyes are glowing like midnight Ariel! what's up with you and your ogling eyes?" Sousuke said.

"nothing" I said, waving him off.

"don't wave it off! i can see that look!" Sousuke said.

"Says the one who fell for me 10 years ago and made the exact same face" I said.

"N-n-no! don't be silly" Sousuke flushed.

I rolled my eyes at him and walked off to Makoto's lane.

"you've been real bad this year Makoto" I sighed.

"what? you're gonna give him coal right?" Kou winked.

"so have you" I said.

"thanks" Kou said.

Kou got out her phone, she snapped a photo.

'new snapchat from Kou-baby-shark'

I opened it.

A photo of Makoto's backside with the caption:

"dayumn Makoto, nice Ass"

I turned redder than my hair.

Kou laughed.

"you owe me a soda!" Kou said.

"you're so mean" I said.

"I know, That's why I'm getting coal this year... mrs Santa claus!" Kou said.

"alright, Kou that's enough" Makoto shook his head.

"you heard that?" Kou said.

"Most of it" Rin said.

"Brother!" Kou cried.

Makoto chuckled, "Don't worry about it, Ariel.. She's just trying to get to you".

"thanks" I smiled.

"No problem" Makoto kissed my ear.

"HEY! you're here!" Kou said.

"well, i got nothing else to do..." I said.

"hey Kitsch Senpaiiiii!" Nagisa called.

"Nagisa, quiet.. haru is working" kou said.

"working with what?" Nagisa said.

"water?  done seducing the water?" Kou said.

I felt hands cover my eyes.

"guess who" Rin said.

"Well, it isn't makoto.. so it must be Rin" I said.

"damn it" rin sighed.
