Chapter 5: The Searching
[At the Student Council room]
“You don’t have to run!” Koyama pouts.
“I said no! Kei-chan!” Yamapi opposed, wiggling his head frantically.
“Oh come on! Don’t say that!” Koyama pouts more, with pleading eyes.
“It’s this hot already?” Yamapi sighed, giving in to Koyama’s request. Koyama smiled sweetly at him at shoved a food onto Yamapi’s mouth.
“How is it?” Koyama asked, batting his eyelashes as he waits to the others response.
{GULP}
“I told you not to shove it all in that!” Yamapi scolded as he almost choked.
“You really have to taste it!” Koyama persisted. Koyama shoved another food to Yamapi’s mouth.
{GULP GULP GULP}
When Yamapi gulp down all the food on his mouth, he reached for a bottle of water and drank it quickly.
{GULP}
“Aaaahhh! I thought I was gonna die!”
“So… it doesn’t taste good?” Koyama lowered his head, upset.
“No, no, no… It’s not that Kei-chan!” Yamapi replied at once, wiggling his head and both hands frantically and continued, “You just didn’t have to shoved all that into my mouth at once..”
“Then it’s good?” Koyama lifted his head, his eyes sparkling.
“Of course!” Yamapi nods full-heartedly making thumbs up.
“Then… I’m off to take this to Shiggy-chan!” Koyama stood up cheerfully, picking up his home-made bento and then ran off dramatically.
“EH?!” Yamapi exclaimed. “Am I a poison taster!?” O.O “Eh!? Hey! Kei-chan! Wait! I want to see little kitten too!” Yamapi extend his arms as if trying to reach something dramatically.
“Pi, just finish those damn papers already! I’m hungry!” Ryo glared at him.
“But – but, that’s unfair! Kei-chan can freely go have lunch with my little kitten while I’m here, doing these paperworks! Amp!” *Akira pouts* Yamapi whined like a child.
“It’s your own fault, right? You didn’t finish it last time. You deserved it.” Ryo said mockingly.
“But! Ryo-chan!”
“SHUT UP Pi! Stop whining! Just finish your work! I’M REALLY HUNGRY!” Ryo snapped. But then, he sensed that something’s missing. “Pi, do you know where Buta gone?”
Yamapi who’s still pouting deeply answered, “I don’t know, he’s here a while ago.”
{Where’s that stupid pig gone?} Ryo asked to no one.
-------------------------
“The teacher’s mean-spirited ne, calling me all of a sudden with such a hard question… I really panicked…” Tegoshi said pouting.
“You say that, but I think you look pretty calm ne, Tesshi… I mean, you still answered correctly the question yo.” Massu smiled at him brightly.
“Well, that was…Shige helped me out…” Tesshi turns to Shige, giving him a warm smile as gratitude.
“Ie, you answered it yourself… I’ve just given you a clue.” Shige waves shyly.
“But still! Thanks to you ne…” Tesshi bounce cheerfully and Massu followed bouncing and said joyfully, “Then, as a gratitude… you have to treat us ne with delicious gyoza!”
“Oi! Massu! Why did he have to treat you? Shige should be the only one he has to treat.” Kusano cut in, forcing himself not to smack the head of his buta friend.
“EH?” Massu eyed them shocked as if he’s not going to eat in a million years. Laughter filled the hallway as they laughed about Massu’s munching habit. Shige let out a loud laughed and that makes his friends turn around and face him with smiles on their faces.
“Finally! You laugh!” Tesshi bounce happily.
“YO! Shige finally laugh ne!” Massu followed.
“Huh?”
“Yeah… it’s your first TRUE laugh since we transferred here.” Kusano explained.
“Huh? What do you mean ‘my first true laugh?’ I’ve laughed a lot ever since I got here and be with you guys.” Shige said, still confused on what are the others talking about not having a true laugh.
“Ne… Shige, not that I’m-so-not-comfortable laugh of yours. I know, you’ve been having a hard time adjusting in this place.” Massu said, putting an arm on Shige’s shoulder.
Shige knew that Massu was right. It’s been a week since he and Kusano transferred on KITAGAWA GAKUEN, but he felt awkwardness in the place. He didn’t know what the exact reason why he’d felt unease, it might be the fact that the school is for all boys school and there’s some weird stuff he can’t figured out. He knew himself that he’s a shy type person not like Kusano who can get along easily with other students. And it’s thanks to his best friend Massu and to his new friend Tesshi that the uneasiness is fading away as the day passed by, Tegomassu power really made him smile.
“Isn’t that a good thing ne? It means you’re finally getting used to this school.” Tesshi smiled at him sweetly.
“That might be true, but… This school is kind a different. I know that this is an all boys school.
But it’s still kind of weird how there’s ONLY guys around.” Shige shivered in the last sentence he said, remembering some incident like seeing some guys walking hand in hand as if they were couple or… so they are?
“Eh? What do you mean only guys?” Massu asked naively.
“Like… teachers here are all guys too…” Shige explained.
“Eh? You don’t know that there are girls here? Ne… Little kitten?” Jin butt in, walking towards Shige then put an arm around Shige’s shoulder.
The three stared at Jin confusingly.
“Oi, get your hands off Shige! You pervert!” Kusano glared at Jin.
“There are? I’ve never met one.” Massu asked, tilted his head in puzzlement.
“Shall I introduce you to some?” Jin turned his head to Shige and winked at him seductively.
“N-no! You don’t have to do that!” Shige stuttered quickly, a shade of red flickers on his cheeks.
“Ne…Kitty…You’re blushing! So cute!” Jin commented and pinched Shige’s cheeks playfully.
Shige ducked his head very low in embarrassment, his face turned redder than a normal tomato.
“Seriously YOU ARE RED!” Massu and Tesshi sing-sang together happily. And that really makes Shige bent his head lower than before in embarrassment.
Seconds later, Jin shocked Shige by hugging the other without warning.
“Hey, Yoko! Be careful. You almost bump into Kitty.” Jin said, Shige’s still on his hold.
A guy who wears big eye glasses, messy hair with a detector in hand appeared in front of them.
“OH! Jin? It’s you.” The guy said uninterested, eyes still on his detector.
“Oi! Bakanishi!” A sexy rude voice came.
“YO! Jin! OW! KITTY’s here!” *akirabounce*
Head turns to the new comers. O.O
“Ryo! Pi! Where have you two been? I’ve been searching for you two ne!” Jin smiled stupidly, still hanging his arms around Shige.
“KITTY! KITTY! KITTY! You’re here! Ureshii ne!” Yamapi bounce happily in front of Shige, and grabbing the boy by the arm away from Jin. (Obviously trying to get Shige away from Jin *akirasmile*)
“Eh?” Shige who startled in the way Yamapi grabbed him blushed.
“OOOOOOI! PI!” Jin frowned, knowing that Yamapi grabbed Shige away from him intentionally.
“Ne! uhm..
“Hai! Hai! Massu-tan’s right… we’re still here ne… right, Notti-chan?” Tegoshi agreed staring at Massu. *Nods eagerly*
Kusano on the other hand just keep on staring at Yamapi. *Open-mouth*
“Yeah. Yeah. Oi! Pi! Let’s get back to work.” {*Sighed* that geek is the major attention again. Argh!}Ryo starts to get annoyed.
“Ne, Ryo-chan… it’s not a work ne… can I just stay here with Kitty ne? Can I? Can I?” Yamapi begged, tightens his hold to Shige as he whined. *akirapout*
“NO.”
“But~”
*Pi holds tight even more*
{UNGH}Shige groan.
“NO.”
“B~”
“NO BUTS! Or I kill you.” Ryo snapped, he gave Yamapi a deadly glare.
{HMP.}*akirapouts*
“Hey! Ryo… Relax… what work are you talking about?” Jin pats Ryo to calm him down.
“Huhuhu…Oh! That….! Hmp… *akirapout* Buta’s missing…” Yamapi answered. {That stupid pig! He’s so dead! This is his fault that’s why Ryo-chan doesn’t let me stay with Kitty! ~Pi whispered~}
Shige: “Ano…”
“So what if Buta’s missing? Who cares?” Jin asked.
{Baka as always.}Ryo confirmed.
Shige: “A-Ano…”
“Pi, stop whining already. And you, Bakanishi, just come with us to search for that pig.” Ryo gave Yamapi another deadly glare then turns to Jin.
“EH?! Why also me??” Jin whines, starts to move away.
{BRREEP BRREEP} <<- Detector.
“FINALLY! I GOT HIM!” Yoko shouted in success.
*Silence*
All eyes stared at him puzzled.
“A-A-Anooo….” Shige broke the silence. All eyes turned to him.
“Y-Yamashita-kun, C-could y-you.. C-could y-you…~~ C-can’t b-breath.” Shige said as he tried to breath.
“OH! Gomen ne! Kitty! Hihihi..” Yamapi let go of Shige but still, he rests his arms around Shige’s shoulder.
{Argh! Damn Pi!} Jin growled in his thoughts.
“Yoko?! What was that all about??? Are you mad?!” Jin asked stupidly towards Yoko’s sudden outburst. [Obviously, Jin’s mad but he aimed at Yoko to release his anger.]
“No, I’m not! Baka! I’ve got Buta’s spot!” Yoko explained wearing a big weird smile, trying to get a hold of himself not to smack Jin’s head.
“Ow…is that so? Hehehe..” Jin scuffs his head stupidly.
“Good. Let’s get going. That’s stupid pig. I’m gonna kill him.” Ryo said, getting irritated because Jin’s stupidity and the long chit-chat.
“Ne… How about us?” Tegoshi and Massu asked naively in unison, Kusano still dumbfounded.
“OW! Why don’t we let them come along with us! So our searching won’t be soooo boring~ ne..*konkon*” Yamapi sing-song as he bounces in front of Ryo, clasping Ryo’s hand and begging.
“Yeah! Yeah! As long as Little Kitten’s with us, it sure will be more interesting!” Jin agreed. *Bakanishi pervert smirk* X3
“Hey, why always Shige?” came a voice. *frown*
“Ow!” Jin hopped in surprise, tilted his head and asked idiotically, “You’re here?”
“Finally you speak, thought you’re a mute.” Ryo raised an eye brow as he stared at Kusano mockingly.
“I’m not mute. And yes, I’m here stupid.” Kusano retorted.
“OW~ wohow… Kusano-kun’s here… how come I didn’t notice you ne? *kon*” Yamapi asked over politely. However, Kusano felt his heart was ripped into pieces.
“A-A-Ano~~” Kusano starts to explained, but Ryo interrupted, “Hey, stop this dramatic scenery already. If you all want to come along then just go with it! This is just making non sense.” {SSHESH! Bakas} Ryo sighed.
-------------
*sob*
“Huhuhuhu…”
*sob*
“Huhuhuhu…”
“Ano… Koyama-kun?”
Koyama lifts his head to see a little boy bending down to him with a concern look on his eyes.
“Ow…Daiki-kun! *sobs* Huhuhu..” Koyama holds the hem of the shirt of Arioka, who’s eyes looks like a girl’s eyes that shows a nice and kind heart.
“Koyama-kun, what’s wrong ne? Is something happened?” Arioka asked cutely, concern written on his face. He’s not used to see his senpai being so down.
“Oh! No.. no… no… nothing happened… it’s just that..*sobs* I can’t find my Shiggy-chan.” Koyama tried to hold his sob but failed.
“ow…. Gomen, I don’t know who’s Shiggy-chan ne, Koyama-kun.” Arioka crooked his head down, feeling guilty not to know how to help his senpai.
“Ow! Ow! Daiki-kun! Don’t be sad ne… It’s okay, I’ll describe him to you ne…” Koyama smiled as he remember Shige’s face. [*Mood changing*]
“He’s a cute guy, obviously! Of course..ahihihi.. *giggles* he wears big geeky eyeglasses but he’s still cute! *giggles* he looks like a kitten! *giggles* he’s my loving neighbor *giggles*” Koyama flips his hands on the air as he continue to describe happily about Shige. While the little boy, Arioka turned his attention on the group on front of him. Looking intently to the boys passing by, a boy caught his eyes.
{Blah..Blahh..Blahhhh..}
“Ano…Koyama-kun, is this Shiggy-chan of yours always holding a thick book and have a cat kit chain on his bag?” Arioka asked politely, still gazing at the boy who had passed them by.
“OW! Yeah! Yeah! He’s soo smart ne! *giggles*” Koyama hugs himself exaggeratedly, thinking it’s Shige he’s hugging.
“OH! Then! I’m right! Koyama-kun! There he is ne!” Arioka pointed his finger towards to the back of a boy who’s already far away from them.
“EH?!” Koyama followed the direction of Arioka’s finger and was dumbfounded. *Mouth-open* ~o~
“SSSSSHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGGYYYYYY-CCCCCHHHHHHAAAAAANN!” Koyama ran right away, with arms flying exaggeratedly.
------------------
“Eh? Why would Buta be inside that creepy room?” Yamapi asked, shivering as he takes a good look to a door which is full of “Don’t enter”, “No students allowed”, “If you go inside, you’ll die”, and more non sense threats. But in the center of the door, there written “Door to Heaven”.
“YEAH! YEAH! Creepy! Can we go back now? Let’s go Little Kitten.” Jin shudders; he tries to take Shige’s wrist but was stopped by Ryo.
“Don’t be so coward now, Jin.” Ryo glared at him.
“I’m not coward! I’m just…. Little Kitten’s not safe here. That’s all.” Jin stuttered.
“OW! Come on.” Ryo smirked at Jin, Jin shivered.
“Hokey guys, just open the door already. I’m hungry!” Yoko complained.
“YEAH! I’m hungry too ne… let’s eat together ne…” Massu agreed, a super big smile crept into his face.
“Hai! Hai! Massu-tan! Then let’s go to a ramen shop after this ne… I have to show you the new recipe of Aiba-san!” Tegoshi bounce cheerfully with Massu in hand.
“Stop jumping around, Tego Massu…” Kusano pleaded, blushed as Yamapi glance at him.
“Hey, Jin let’s just open this door.”
“Alright. Alright.”
Yamapi and Jin tried to open the door but they failed.
“Argh! It’s locked! Let’s just forget it.” Jin sighed, giving up already.
“It’s not locked. I think it’s just too heavy to open.” Yamapi tilts his head, thinking.
“Of course, it’s heavy. The door was made in metal.” Ryo said matter-of-factly smacking Yamapi’s head.
“It doesn’t look like heavy ne…” Massu walked towards the door, he reached the doorknob and pulled it with his left hand. And… BAM! It opens.
“See? It’s not heavy at all.” Massu turned his head and smiled sweetly to the others who are dumbfounded.
“WOAH! Massu-tan’s soooo strong ne! *giggles*” Tegoshi bounce even more in front of Massu, poking Massu’s muscles.
*Bright smile* <<- Massu.
“Well done, Masuda-kun. I’ll go first to check inside.” Ryo said coolly.
“GO! Ryo!” Jin cheered.
“GO! Ryo-chan!” Yamapi cheered.
“Don’t be so happy, you idiots.” Ryo stared back at them, giving a last dealy glare before darkness covered him.
“Ne, is it safe that we let Nishikido-kun go alone with himself?” Shige asked.
“OW! Don’t worry about him! He can do it! He’s short but, he’s brave!” Jin said assuring as he put an arm around Shige.
“OI! BAKANISHI! I CAN STILL HEAR YOU!” voice came from inside the dark room.
“eeeeeehh? Hehehe.. gomen Ryo-chan.” Jin scuffed his head stupidly.
“SSSSSHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGYYYYYYYY----CCCCHHHHHHHHHAAAAANNNNNN!” {came a voice from nowhere.}
“Wha-What’s that???” Jin jumped.
“SSSSSHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGYYYYYYY--------CCCCCHHHAAAAAANNN!”
“I think I knew that voice.” Yamapi smirked.
*pants pants* Koyama came in.
“Koyama-kun? You alright?” Shige asked worriedly.
*pants pants* “I-I’m o-okay… hihihi.. f-finally f-found y-you..” Koyama said still panting.
“WOOOOAAAAAHH! Kei-chan senpai’s here!!!” Tegoshi screamed in delight with open arms as he noticed Koyama. Accidentally, he hit Shige with his wide arms and Shige who was shocked was push inside the dark room. Then, Massu joins Tegoshi bouncing happily to greet Koyama…. And BAM! *TTCCCHHUUGGSSS!* {door closed}
*Silence*
“Ne, the door closed again…” Tegoshi said naively, not noticing whose missing.
“OH! Yeah…! Wait, I’ll go open it!” Massu tried to open the door.
“aaaagggghh! I can’t open it anymore. Amp.” Massu frowned in disappointment.
“HEY! WAIT! WHERE’S SHIGE?!” Koyama, Yamapi and Jin asked loudly in unison.
“Huh? He’s right….” Tegoshi tilts his head, “here?”
“OH! Well, I think he went with Nishikido-kun…” Tegoshi straighten up and smiled gleefully.
“Yeah! Isn’t it a member ai ne? Koyama-kun?” Massu agreed, smiled brightly with Tegoshi.
“WHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTT?!”
