It was about five weeks into the her high school freshmen term, Miyaki was doing well, she had finally gotten used to Rina not being by her side but, she still got lonely when something reminded her of her but, she was able to keep strong with Rina calling her any chance she got, they'd tell each other about their life at school, what they had been up to, they even discussed what they'd do when they would see each other again. Their calls always ended with three words, 'I love you' Miyaki would be set for days after that but then, all of a sudden the calls had stopped, Miyaki thought that Rina must have been busy with school and wasn't able to pick up her phone. But, that wasn't the case, as she was about to learn in the next thirty minuets.

   Miyaki was sitting in her classroom it was late after the school day had ended, she was busy reading over the material she had learned that day, she brushed her blonde hair behind her ear, when she entered high school Miyaki had let her hair grow out, it was now half way down her back but, that wasn't the only thing different about her, Miyaki had grown body wise as well. She now had womenly curves, her thighs had gotten wider and her breasts, which had been on the big size were now much bigger it wasn't hard to say that Miyaki was one of those girls that developed early, her body along with her lovely blonde hair and blue eyes made her the envy of other girls and the dreams of the boys. Speaking of boys, it didn't take long for the boys to flock to Miyaki, they would come one after another and flirt with her each one was good looking, any girl with a sense for men would kill to have the types of guys that flirted with Miyaki flirt with them it there wasn't any doubt that Miyaki was the most popular freshman girl.

  Miyaki was even confessed to, but, she rejected every single guy as there was only one person that occupied her heart, Rina, Miyaki dreamed about the day that Rina would come see her, and they'd be able to pick up where they left off in Rina's room the day before she left. Miyaki giggled as she though on the very subject, she sighed contentedly, she casually glanced at the clock on the wall in front of her she saw that it was getting really late, she looked around and saw that she was the only one left in the classroom. She sighed, she closed her book "Guess I should head home" she pulled her book bag onto the desktop and put her book inside it, she threw the straps on her shoulder and got up from her seat she pushed the chair under the desk and made her way out the classroom.

  As she made her way down the hallway Miyaki saw a boy leaning against the wall, he was very good looking, he had a somewhat chiseled jawline and he looked well built, his head perked up when he heard Miyaki's footsteps coming down the hall, he looked her way and a smile came to his face. He flashed his perfect white teeth and flipped his black hair that hung in his face and made his way towards Miyaki. Miyaki stopped halfway down the hall as the boy came to a stop in front of her, he was taller then her as Miyaki had to creen her neck to see his face which held his bright white smile. "Your Miyaki Ogura right?" he asked, Miyaki smiled "Yes, is there something you needed from me?" Miyaki asked the boy chuckled, "Yeah, as a matter of fact there is Miyaki-chan" the boys voice was gruff, he must have been going through puberty, Miyaki smiled "What do you need?" the boy blushed a bit "Well, it's more like I have something I want to say" Miyaki raised an eyebrow "Oh, really" Miyaki knew what those words meant, "Why can't these guys get a clue?" she said to herself.

  Even though Miyaki was annoyed by the constant confessions, she didn't want to be rude so, she decided to go along with it, "Whats your name?" she asked, "My name Naoto, Naoto Yuki" Miaki nodded "Okay, what is it you wanted to say Yuki-kun?" she gave a smile, the boy who introduced himself as Naoto blushed "Uhm, I..I.." Naoto stuttered, Miyaki kept smiling although she was getting annoyed, "I like you! Please go out with me!!" Naoto shouted, he even bowed. Miyaki sighed she was right, another confession, "I'm sorry Yuki-kun, but I can't accept your feelings" Naoto looked up with a crushed look, Miyaki felt bad, she had rejected so many guys but never had she seen either of them be as crushed as Naoto was, Naoto sighed "I understand" he then turned and was about to walk away. He stopped and looked back at Miyaki, "Uhm, if it's not to much of a bother, do you want to be friends instead?" Miyaki was a bit shocked at Naoto's proposal.

  "Uh, are you sure about that? I mean, you'd want to be friends with the girl who rejected you?" Naoto smiled, "No, I confessed and was properly rejected, you don't have to worry" Miyaki was shocked once more, she never had a heard a guy say something like that, all the others seemed to hang there heads for weeks on end after she'd reject them but, Naoto was different. Miyaki smiled, "Alright then, I guess we can be friends Yuki-kun" Naoto smiled "Thanks Miyaki-chan!" he bowed again, Miyaki chuckled "Your welcome" Naoto shot back up "Want to walk home together then?" Miyaki was a bit off put by the suddeness of Naoto's question, "Uhm.." she droned Miyaki scratched her cheek. As she stood there and thought she could see a sad look come to Naoto's face, it made her feel guilty for thining of saying no so, against her better judgement she said "Yeah, sure, I don't see why not" Naoto smiled "Really!?" Miyaki smiled nervously and nodded.

   "Alright!" Naoto cheered pumping his fist in the air, Miyaki kept a straight face, Naoto blushed in embarassment when he realized he had done that in front of Miyaki he nervously rubbed the back of his head, "Uhm, shall we go?" Miyaki stiffled a laugh and nodded Naoto smiled and started to walk off. Miyaki couldn't believe the events that had just taken place before her, she was confessed to, she rejected her confessor, then he asked to be her friend which she accepted,and now she was going to walk home with said guy. Miyaki giggled to herself, "Wait till Rina hears about this" she giggled once more at the thought of how Rina would react she heard Naoto call her name, he was at the end of the hall waiting for her "Are you coming Miyaki-chan?" he gave a sad look "Sorry!" she smiled apologetically and she ran to catch up to him.

  The two walked out the school in silence, the two had no idea what to say to each other as they had just met today, "Uhm.." Naoto started "Yeah, what?" Miyaki cut in Naoto blushed in embrassment, "Is your hair naturally blonde?" Miyaki didn't know what to say, she chuckled nervously "Yeah, I got it from my Dad" Naoto grinned "I see, is your Dad a foreigner?" Miyaki nodded "Yeah, he was born in the UK" Naoto nodded. "The UK? That's cool" Miyaki smiled "Yeah, if you say so" akward silence fell, "Uh, I hope I can meet your Dad" Miyaki frowned, Naoto let out a small yelp "Did, Did I say something wrong?" Miyaki saw the concerned look on Naoto's face and gave a smile, "It's alright, you won't be able to meet my Dad" Naoto raised and eyebrow "Why? Does his work keep him away from home alot?" Miyaki shook her head. "No, my Dad passed away when I was 6 years old" Naoto had the face of someone who knew they messed up, "I'm sorry, I had no idea" he looked away a bit ashamed of himself "No no, it's alright, I'm not as touchy about it as I use to be" Miyaki smiled said she was okay, but any mention of her father still got to her.

  A deathly silence fell after that exchange, Naoto decided to change the subject "Uhm, what about your Mom?" Miyaki smiled somberly, "My Moms full Japanese" Naoto smiled "So, is that why you can understand Japanese so well?" Miyaki nodded "Yep, I got the languge and height from Mom, and I got Dads eyes and hair" she chuckled. Naoto smiled,"Can you understand English well?" Miyaki smiled nervously "Yeah, but, I haven't had to use it since I moved to Japan" Naoto hummed "I see" an akward silence fell again, Miyaki decided it was her turn to break it "What about you?" Naoto looked at her in surprise, "Uhm me?" Miyaki nodded. Naoto scratched his cheek "Well, I'm full blooded Japanese, my parents are really strict, my Mom stays at home with my baby brother, and my Dad works for a stock company, my older brother lives on his own..." Naoto rambled on, Miyaki thought he was going to tell her his whole lifes story before she decided to interject. "Uhm, how long have you been wanting to confess to me?" Naoto froze mid-sentence, he blushed "Uhm, well, I.." he started to stutter.

  "Since the first day I saw you" he looked away in embarassment, Miyaki chuckled "When was that?" Naoto rubbed the back of his head, "Uhm, the first day of school" Miyaki was a bit amazed, Naoto had been planning to confess to her ever since the first day of school "Wow, I'm sorry" Miyaki knew it must have taken Naoto alot of courage to confess to her after holding feelings for her for so long. Naoto looked at her and smiled, "It's okay, I gave it a shot and rejection was the result, I'm just glad I had the balls to confess at all" Miyaki smiled "But hey, at least we became friends because of that" Miyaki chukled "Yeah, I guess" once more silence came, Naoto was still blushing he rubbed his neck "So, is there someone you like?" Miyaki froze. "What?" Naoto stopped as well, "I asked if there was someone you liked, since you've rejected so many guys" Miyaki had no idea what to say, yeah, she did have someone she liked, but it wasn't a guy it was Rina, a girl.

  "Miyaki-chan?" Naoto raised an eyebrow, Miyaki was too scared to say anything, she was scared that if she said yes she'd have to say who, and she had no idea if Naoto was the type to accept that type of thing. Miyaki was so lost in her worries that she had no idea that she unconsiously started to mumble, she was even twirling her hair on her finger, "Miyaki-chan? You okay?" Naoto didn't get a response, he was getting worried, "Sorry, did I ask something I shouldn't have?" Naoto smiled apologeticaly. Miyaki nodded, Naoto sighed "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to put you on the spot, I was just curious" Miyaki could tell from the look on Naoto's face he genuinely felt bad about what he had done, Miyaki sighed and smiled "It's alright, I know you didn't mean anything by it" Naoto smiled in relief. It was akward between them, "We should get going" Naoto proposed and resumed walking, "Ye-yeah, sure" Miyaki resumed walking as well.

  Miyaki and Naoto didn't say anything to each other, after the mess the last conversation was they had no idea what else to say to each other, Naoto tried to start a new conversation but, he'd stop before he finsihed his sentences. Miyaki could tell Naoto was feeling guilty about the previous conversation, as his worried and sad face was evident, "Should I just tell him?" she asked herself, "No! What if he's one of those that does accept that kind of thing?" she thought, "But, he feels so guilty!" she fought back, "But, what if I do tell him, and he is like that, and he tells the whole school and people start to bully me?" Miyaki's head was a warzone. She was fighting with herself on telling Naoto the truth yet, because she only had just met him she had no idea what kind of person he was but, something deep down inside of her was telling her that she could trust him. Miyaki was still hesitant, even though she had something telling her to trust Naoto her heart was yelling at her not to.

  Miyaki let out a loud shout, it caused Naoto to jump in fright, he stopped "What? Is something the matter?" a shocked look on his face, Miyaki felt her head was going to explode, she had the notion to tell Naoto the truth and the notion Not to fighting each other. She wanted the madness to stop so, she decided to go with the feeling deep down inside her, she took in a breath "Yuki-kun!" she shouted Naoto jumped "Yes!" Miyaki stared at him "You asked me if there was someone I liked" Naoto had a confused look on his face, Miyaki grumbled "Well!? Didn't you!?" Naoto yelped, "Yeah, I did" he nodded "Wha-What about it?" a look of fear on his face. Miyaki grumbled, "Well, I do" Naoto was even more confused, "What?" Miyaki grumbled again "I said I do! I do have someone I like!" Naoto was a bit scared, "I see, that's cool" he wanted Miyaki to stop, she was scaring him, "The person I like.." Miyaki paused, Naoto raised an eyebrow "The person you like?" he repeated "Is a girl!" Miyaki shouted.

   Naoto unconciously repeated the word, "Is a girl..." it took a moment for it to sink in, when it did he gasped "The one you like is a girl!" Miyaki had a worried look on her face yet, she nodded "Yeah, the one I like is a girl, her name is Rina, she's my childhood friend" Naoto's mouth was agape "I see" the air grew akward as Naoto said nothing else. Miyaki was nervous, she was starting to believe that she may have made the wrong choice. [Ch.0 Part 2 END]
