“I come up here to be alone and think usually. Well I try to be up here alone, but that doesn’t happen too often unless I tell you that I’m going to go somewhere and then obviously you get worried about me because I haven’t come back with a pass to sign out and you notice that I’m not where I said I was.”
“How did you know that?” I frowned a little. I didn’t know why he was giving me such an awful attitude.
“Because you’re easy to read. Maybe that’s why you’re so easily in a daze when you meet Zero. Well that’s what I think anyways.” He sighed loudly and sat up. I punched him
“What is up with you?” I asked angrily, and then went back into the school. I went into the bathroom and leaned against the wall. What did I do? I thought. I was angry, and kinda hurt at the same time. I had just told him things that I thought were good about him, and he treated me like that. He looked like something was bothering him lately, and I just wanted to help him. But he obviously didn’t want any. And what was that about Zero? Was he saying, that I was already weak against a guy like that, or that, maybe he meant that I was easy? That really hurt thinking he meant that. And he signed up for Romeo and Juliet, why? I heard the bell go off and I wiped away the couple tears that came from my eyes and regained my poise. If he wanted to be a jerk then fine, two can play at that game. I went to study hall and signed out. I went back to the sign up sheets and erased my name from under Juliet. I couldn’t erase his name because it was in ink. “We’ll see who’s easy…” I muttered. I took the charm he gave me back when we first met off my bracelet and put it in his locker. I went back to class and wanted the day to just end.

The final bell rang and I went to my locker. I watched for Kuori, but I didn’t see him. I took out my phone.
Where are you he answered a minute later.
I didn’t feel good, so mom came and took me home.
Really
Yeah
Fine, Im coming over.
Ok I shut my phone and went over to his locker and grabbed my charm. I would give it to him face to face. I went out and called mom and told her I would be over at Kuori’s first. She told me it was fine and I walked quickly to his house and knocked on the door. His mom answered it.
“Mi, are you here to see-“
“Yes I am.” I answered.
“He’s in his room.” She turned and I went straight there. He was laying in bed, and did look pretty sick. But I was still going to tell him what I needed to tell him.
“Mi.” He said. I just looked at him. “Mi?” He asked. I threw the charm at him. “What, are you doing? This is yours…”
“Not anymore.”
“What?”
“I don’t just accept things from guys, they have to earn my trust and respect.”
“What are you talking about?”
“How could you say that to me Kuori?” I asked angrily.
“Say what Miyuki?”
“You said…you said…” I was so angry and frustrated I started to cry.
“M-Mi, please calm down…”
“You said I was easy! What kind of best friend would say that? I’ve never gone out with anyone before because no one has ever wanted me! And you have the nerve to get nasty with me after I just told you what I see in you that is good, that you have no dark in you, and then you turn around a prove me completely wrong!” I cried.
“I-I, uh…”
“No, just stop! And if you only signed up because you saw that I did well then cross your damn name off the list because mine is gone too!”
“M-Miyuki…”
“Just leave me alone.” I ran out of his room and past his parents, then out the front door and to my house. I got in and mom and dad both jumped up and ran over to me.
“Hunny what’s wrong?” Mom asked.
“K-Kuori…” I sobbed.
“What? What did he do to you? Did he hurt you?” My dad asked. I shook my head.
“I-I just, want to be, alone…” I went to my room, shut the door and sat on my bed.
