"Okay, when I said we can hang out, I didn't mean you can lie on the table as if it was your
bed at home!"

"Oh come on Prezy, just let me stay here for like 2 minutes or so, I'm kinda tired."

"THATS NOT EXCUSE! OFF!" I yell intensely.

Ugh, this girl laying on the table with a stack of work papers as a pillow, is known as Watanabe Minami, a second year who was been rumored to be a horrible, awful person that's said to be rude towards people who are in contact with her.

But, as of now, she nothing more like a five year old I'm looking after. We did plan to hang out so we can get to know eachother, however the only thing I got to know so far about her is she likes to mess around with me, as usual.

I sigh. "Tell me you at least did your homework for today."

There was a long pause for her answer. I don't like where this is going...

"..."

"...so that's a no?..."

"...yeah..."

Watanabe instinctively plugs her ears as I yell, making everyone in the council room stare at us, though some were already staring to begin with. Especially Takeshi, dumbfounded that I even let her in the student council room in the first place.

"What?!?!" I shout. "Why not? It's very important, especially for your grades."

"What are you? My uncle?" she says, annoyed.
"Look, I just don't see the point in doing it...I know how to do it, so I don't see the point in practicing something I know already. It's just a waste of time."

...That's odd..."But if you continue to practice it, you get better at it. Thats why I got second place for highest grades on the midterm exams."

"Oh wow...." she says sarcastically. "Second place huh? Why not first?"

"Thats why I'm gonna work harder this time." I assure, with pride. "So that way, I get to the satisfaction of beating whoever I lost against."

"Scary..." She says, looking at me in a weird way. "I figured you were very competitive though..."

"Just a little," I respond, though in return she gives me a annoyed glare. I ignore it, "But the reason why I'm so mad is because of how much I lost by. I still can't believe I lost just b-"

"By four points?" She says. "It's a shame, really."

"How did y- you beated me?" I stuttered.

"I would mess with you, Prezy," she sighs, getting up off the table, and looked towards the clock on top of the blackboard. "But it's almost classtime, so I'll just leave it short: yes."

"Well, whatever. Also would you stop calling me 'Prezy'. Its as annoying as knowing you beated me without even trying." I urged, how did she even do that anyway?

"Okay then how about something like 'Prez'? Ooh I like that better, I'm going with that." She jokes.

"No, call me Hirai, or President."

"No, that's too boring, how about...Akiro..." I hear her say under her breath. I feel my face become a little hot as i tell her that people may get the wrong idea.

"Oh...I guess your right...then I'm sticking with Prez, no matter what you say..."She says, sounding a little depressed,though she was trying to joke. However, she probably realized her behaivor, since she changes to a different mood very quickly.

"Anyway," She announced, in a cheerful tone. " It's seven minutes until eight o'clock, so we got to class soon. I'll go first."

She probably wanted to call me by my first name... but it may be too casual, making people to leave suspicion.

Watanabe gets up from the table, grabs her bag, and heads to the door. She pauses in front of the door,however, and turns around to face me.

Once again, I see a sweet and kind smile, and she quickly leaves the room.

At least she had fun...and I'm glad I got some things done.
       
Nevertheless, Takeshi slams is hands on the desk as everyone leaves and I try to leave with them.

"...oh god no..."

"What was that about?!" Takeshi exclaimed, though not as loud as usual to avoid causing a scene. "Well Akiro?"

"Um..." I respond, thinking of the best way to reason out my situation. "She...experienced something terrible, something very tragic and heartbreaking for her. I feel that if we hang out together, she would feel better and we may become great friends with eachother."

While I give my little speech to Takeshi, I look passed him and to the door. On the very left side of the door, red ribbon along with black hair ran along the side of the door window frame. She's listening on us...maybe to get a glimpse of Takeshi's personality?

"Do you know what you got yourself into? She'll call you names, push you around like a slave and use your name as president to do whatever she wants. She's nothing but trouble."

I look towards the window. The ribbon slowly falls down along with the hair, she probably put her head down.

"Well she is troublesome..." I start. Watanabe lifts her head up, as if she was pretty shocked as what I said. After a second, she start to walk away from the room.

Oh, I'm not done just yet. "But-" I intoned. She immediately turns around, but I make contact with Takeshi, so it doesn't look like I'm messing with her.

"She really nice person. Sure, she toys and jokes around with me, but its for fun. Its not like she truly means what she says when she jokes around, she just has a teasing type of personality. And besides, I do get back at her."

I turn to the door, where are eyes got in contact. "Isn't that right, Watanabe?"

She slams the door open. "I knew it."

Watanabe stomps towards me and yanks my necktie. "If I knew you would mess with me, I would have never have stayed behind."

"Oho, and why did you exactly?" I tease.

Finally, I get to see a little pink within her cheeks for once. "...I hate you... " She said quietly. She let go of my tie and head towards the window, leaned against it and faced outside, like she was pretending we weren't even there.

"See? She's a little forceful, but she means well," I assure Takeshi.

"...you're insane..." He mumbled. I here Watanabe chuckle a little in the background, she's enjoying this isn't she?

"No I'm not, and I'm willing to show you," I affirmed. The second I said that, an idea popped into my head. "Why don't we go to the arcade with Watanabe?"

"No, no, no, not with her."

"Oh, come on already! You were complaining that I wasn't able to go with you, so we can go together now, with Watanabe. If you don't come, then I'm gonna go with her, and without you."

He sighs. "You really want all of us to go together, huh?" He looks at me, and smiles. "Well, if you think this is a good idea, I'll go with it."

Watanabe turns her head towards our direction. "Are you serious?"

"Oh, you're to good for us, huh? Why don't you just go and sit on your throne of trash?"

I turn to see Watanabe for her reaction, but she just jerks her head back to the window. "No, it's not that. I'm just suprised you said yes even though your gonna be with me."

Takeshi roles his eyes. "Whatever, I'll find out for myself. Let's meet up tomorrow, on Saturday, at Nishini park where the tall clock is located. Let's have the meeting time at twelve o'clock."

"Sounds good." I confirmed. I turn to Watanabe. "What about you?"

She looks at me, trying her best to keep a blank face, however, for a second I saw a small smile occur. "Sure."

"Okay, it's settled, now let's get to class, it's gonna start in three minutes." Takeshi notified, and left the council room.

"Well, let's go as well." Watanabe repeated. She grabs her back from the desk next to her, and starts to leave soon.

"Hey, you okay? You seemed worried about something." I ask. By the tone of her voice, it felt like she was very conflicted and confused about something.

She turns to me, shocked. "Oh, um, it's kind of embarrassing, so I'll tell you later, okay?"

She seemed as if she didn't want to talk about it, so I just nodded.

"Okay then. I will see you later." She motioned her head to say goodbye, responding with the same gesture, and we walk into our classes.

What's with her anyway? Leaving me with that gloomy atmosphere with her, did she think I was gonna let that off?

I sigh, and head into the classroom.
