School was back in session the very next day. All the new coding had done was clean the school and add in some new equipment to the rooms such as soundproof practice cubes. Kaito, Yukito, and Charlotte all went to their lockers immediately to pick up their headphones.
“Uh…Charlotte…” Yukito started to say.
“Yes Yukito?”
“I-I’m sorry for what happened. Over the weekend I mean. I don’t know what I did, but, uh….I’m really sorry I scared you like that…”
“Huh? Oh, that? No, I just don’t know what came over me there….it’s ok, I mean….Just don’t worry about it, ok Yukito?”
“Ok…Anyways, I was wondering then if you would like to hang out again after school, just you and me.”
Kaito perked up and looked over at Yukito. Is he seriously trying to ask her out?!? And again, apparently, by the sound of it?
“Uh, Yukito? Charlotte’s busy tonight. I had asked her out already. She was going to come and help me make a playlist for my new concert that’s coming up.”
“Huh?” Yukito looked confused. Did he seriously ask her out?!? He has Miku for Pete’s sake!
*BRING* *BRING* *BRING*
“Oh, um…there’s the bell…we better get to class.” Charlotte said awkwardly. She quickly walked inside the classroom as the two boys stared each other down.
“Oh, so now what? Let me guess, you’ve fallen in love with her too?” Kaito said.
“Yeah, and? I was planning to ask her out. What’s the big deal? You have Miku.” Yukito said flippantly.
“It doesn’t work like that. I thought we explained this earlier. I hate her. You know she’s killed me multiple times? She’s insane. If I wasn’t a computer program, I would have been dead a long time ago. She’s nuts!”
“Oh, does the spoiled little 03 not like his girlfriend? Is she not cute enough for you, or what? You think I actually care?”
“Wah-?!?” Kaito’s face turned red. “What do you mean by that?”
“That I never really was your ‘friend’ anyway. I mean, who cares about being buddies with a stupid little brat like you? It’s called popularity and free equipment and song deals. Half the population thinks you’re gay, and you go around wearing a dress for crying out loud! And now that I’ve actually found someone who I want close to me, you have the nerve to rip her away from me? Tsk, tsk. What are you trying to do? Create a Yuri moment here?”
“I am going to kill you. Take that all back. Right now!”
“Oh yeah? Make me, little girl.”
Kaito ran up and punched Yukito in the face. Yukito was knocked onto the floor, and grabbing Kaito’s leg, he pulled him down as well. Yukito rolled on top of Kaito and began to hit him again and again.
“Oh, I’m sorry! Am I ruining your makeup, pretty boy?”
“Argh!” Kaito pushed him off and scrambled to his feet.
“I may be ‘pretty’ but at least that means that girls like me! How many times have you gotten a pairing? Oh, that’s right! Never! And for your information, I never wear makeup, unless you count Charlotte’s lipstick rubbing on my lips.”
