Title: Hatred and Love
Author: utak ko~ :P
Pairing: Nakajima Kento x OC
Chapter Five:
‘What will you do if your heart starts beating for the person you hated the most? The person you wanted to kill if you can? A big problem, right? Disaster!’
“Yeah, you’re not in the right place so don’t talk as if you knew everything,” I countered. What’s with him? Am I not responsible enough for his cousin? Am I that worst for him to tell me that?
“I knew Kenichi but I don’t want to quarrel with you,” he said as he faced me. He pulled me up. “Where’s your house?” I was about to blab him but it seems that he knew what will I do. “Where’s your house?”
I hissed. Why does he care? “That way,” I pointed out the way on my right.
“I’ll walk you home,” that’s all and he went ahead.
My head struggle to process the word. What did he just say? He’ll what me? Is that ‘walk me home’? Eh?
“Do you want to go home or not, little girl?” Kento shouted in disgrace. Well, still clueless about what’s happening, I just followed him to my home.
There was a deafening silence between us the in the whole way. None of us dared to speak; I wonder why I felt something in my heart that time. Maybe that was due to my heartaches…Sigh, Kenichi. We reached my house without even chatting and just bid our goodbyes. I offered him to go inside, he refused. But my mother, who just got home from work, saw him and invited him to have a dinner with us. He can’t refuse; he shared dinner with us. But the whole time, I can’t speak to him. I felt awkward seeing him talking to my mother with laughter. They get along well though they just met. I don’t know why but they created a beautiful picture of a family. It seems that Kento is my Mom’s child and I am their visitor.
After having dinner, my mom and he talked for hours. All about piano. Jeez, two piano-nerds merged. And I can’t even understand anything. Sigh, I am not like my mom who loves piano more that she loves me, just kidding. Piano was her first love, she grew up with it. No wonder she and asshole get along well. I never thought that the asshole does piano lesson. I mean, you can’t even imagine that behind his image as cool and rebellious hides a gifted pianist?
The rude asshole went home almost past 22:00.
“Ken-chan, come here some other time. I’ll be waiting.” My mom said sweetly as if he was her son. Tsk.
“Yes. I promise.” Kento replied before walking outside. To be called a good citizen, I walked him outside our home.

KENTO’S POV
That was the first time that I ever walked home a girl. Jeez, and the first time I ever visited a girl classmate’s house. Jeez, now I’m getting embarrassed.
But setting aside, I feel happy with that house. It’s like that, I found myself in them. List the Little Girl as an exception. But anyway, I feel sad for her though I don’t really care about others’ business. That time when I saw her sitting in the swing, she really looks hopeless. Hopeless that I can’t just ignore. I felt like I need to comfort her. Though my comfort just made her angry. Jeez, what’s with that girl? She made me do things that I don’t do before. The incident in the infirmary and in the swing. Two times in a row. Jeez, by tomorrow I will return to the old Kento Nakajima; I will make sure that the Little Girl will enjoy every minute, being my student body. A sheepish smile formed on my lips.
But setting aside again, that was really embarrassing! Under my blanket, I screamed.
RINA’S POV
It was a very tiring day… I didn’t even manage to take a bath… when I saw my bed; it was attracting me to feel its softness. I pulled myself onto the bed…
Today was indeed a tiring day but I have this feeling that tomorrow will be more complicated. I feel that I should have a lot of energy to surpass what will happen tomorrow. Jeez, my plan of having 13 hours of sleep was thrown into away. If the Asshole didn’t stay home late, I should have been sleeping now.
Then Kenichi suddenly popped in my thoughts. Kenichi… wonder what will happen between us... if there is still ‘us’… to think of that, i never had a time to think about him the whole time I was with the asshole? No, no, no. I shouldn’t be bother by him. He’s just a nuisance that gave me this wound and had his mark on me. Drat!
As I close my eyes, I wished for a good dream...

“Rina…” a voice woke me up from my slumber. But I still don’t feel like waking. The voice continues to talk. “Wake up, Rina.”
“five more minutes…” I moaned and hid under the blanket with eyes still shut. I need to sleep. Sleep for five more minutes is enough. I’m still sleepy and my body just needs some rest.
The blanket I was hiding under was removed by the owner of the sweet voice. A male sweet voice… Eh? Male? Who could it be? Ah. Maybe my guardian angel… but it sounds familiar. Wonder where did I hear this voice? Anyways, I need to sleep… five more minutes…
I felt hot breathe against my skin, near my ear. It’s tingling sensation. “Wake up, Rina or I’ll wake you up with my kisses.”
That served as a signal for me to open my eyes. But light just welcomed me. Then I saw someone in front of me. But I can’t clearly see him because of the light. Hmm… this scene seemed to be repeated. Then my vision became clearer as moments passed by. And the guy was… “ASSHOLE?!”
“Good morning, Rina.” He said in a seductive voice.
“Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa~!”
Then, I fell from the bed. My head hit the side table and my stuff toy met its way down my face. “Ittai~…” Oh! The asshole! I immediately stood up and inspect the whole room but found nothing suspicious. “Eh? Yume?”
Gosh, I thought I’m going to be killed off. Drat, what’s with that dream! Jeez, maybe that was just because of being attached to that Asshole for almost two weeks. Yeah, it’s already two weeks since I became his student body. But that heartless guy just wanted me to serve him. What am I to him? A nanny? So lame. But we can’t really avoid quarreling. Just yesterday, we got called again by the board chairman for running again in the hallway. And HIM is again, of course, the one to be blamed.
After an hour, I was already on my way to school. I yawned. Jeez, I’m still sleepy. Then somebody bumped me that I fell on the ground. Well, it always happened. “I’m sorry. Are you okay?”
“Kenichi…”
Sigh. It’s been two weeks since we last met. I missed him… I felt like hugging him but the way he looks at me stopped me from doing. He’s staring at me-no emotion at all. His face is all blank with emotion. Like he didn’t even miss me a bit. Jeez, he got a new girlfriend so why would he miss me? I’m just fooling myself. I’m not yet ready to hear what he wanted to say. I don’t want to hear from him that he doesn’t love me anymore. I don’t want to hear that he loves his new girl. I don’t want to hear whatever explanations he has from leaving me behind. I don’t want to hear him say sorry for what he has done. I don’t want because I know my heart will just continue loving him once he says sorry. I just don’t want to see him…
I tried to pass him but he just held me in my arm. “Rin-chan…”
“K-Kenichi… I have to go to school…” I tried to say in a tough voice. I faced him and saw his eyes full with emotions… “don’t worry. I’m okay.”
“Rin-chan… hear me please.” He pleads. “Ryuu-chan isn’t my girl. She’s my-”
“Special someone, she is. But do you want me to believe? That’s she’s just an ordinary girl that you met on the way?” I continued. But I’m not facing him. I’m mad…
“She isn’t my girl. She’s my cousin!”
Cousins, my ass! “Heh~ I have heard a lot of excuses like that before, Kenichi. You can’t fool me.” I pulled myself and run away with tears. Drat~ I thought I would never cry again because of Kenichi.
I reached the school but I didn’t head in our classroom instead I went to the rooftop. That became my haven when I’m tired because of the asshole.
I sat on the bench there and buried my face on my bag and started to cry. Luckily, my tears fell. If he doesn’t love me anymore, he should have just said it than saying that Ryuuka was his cousin. However, I think I won’t take it if he says that in my face that he doesn’t love me anymore.
