Operation Cupid! [A Bandori Fanfic]

The Start of a Shoujo

Himari carefully set her bass's case aside her door-frame, taking a running start to leap onto her bed. She rolled herself snug in her blankets and comforter, much like a burrito. If her older sister or parents were passing by, they would hear the muffled screaming of the giddy Himari. Anyone would be squealing like any other teenage girl if they were in this situation! It's the most cliche, cheesy, and romantic thing that has ever happened to Himari so far... she had received a love letter.

The letter sat gently upon her school-shoes, locked up in the small cube that belonged to Himari at Haneoka. She was baffled when she had opened her locker, stuttering and fumbling around, all as Moca laughed at her from behind. Ran punched Moca in the arm, giving the grey-head a silent warning as to be quiet so they could hear the incoherent speech of Himari. She whipped around, planting her feet firmly upon the wooden floor of their locker-bay.

"This is like one of those romance movies I watched last weekend! The girl gets a love letter, she meets the sender under a blossoming tree, and they end up together!"

The pinkette clapped her hands together, leaving a confused Ran and Moca before her.

"Look, Hii-chan, I think it was all that chocolate you had that's getting to your head,"

Moca gave, letting out her signature laugh, which prompted Himari to begin "hitting" her, whining. As the bell sounded, the three began their journey to their homeroom, where both Tsugumi and Tomoe awaited.

Himari shut her notebook as the final bell sounded. She had tried her best to keep the love letter off her mind during the school day, but it was to no avail. In fact, most of the time in class she had spend compiling a list of who it could be! She had the perfect plan... she was going to play 'spy', similar to another movie she had watched before. She nods, scampering up to Tsugu to grab her sleeve.

"Tsugu, Tsugu! Can I come to your family's cafe after practice? I need your help with something," She spoke, chipper as ever.

Tomoe walked over, her hands above her head, "Himari, Tsugu- want to stop by Saya's before practice? The breadaholic over there wont stop complaining unless we do, and Ran asked me to ask you two if you wanted to come along."

From the distance, Himari saw Moca making wild hand movements as she- seemingly- complained about her lack of bread. Ran was pinching the bridge of her nose, but listening to the girl nonetheless. Himari smiled, looking back to Tomoe.

"Count me in, as long as you help me and Tsugu with something after practice."
