-candy pop-

Nayeon: you never get tired of that candy huh, Tzuyu. You've  eaten the same kind for years.

-sit bended leaning the window-

 

Once I remember how it taste, I can't hold myself back.

 

Tzuyu:  I never really noticed.

 

It's like a sweet poison.

 

Tzuyu: you want one Nayeon? -smiles brightly-

Nayeon: No!

 

****

Nayeon: So, what did you want to talk about?

Tzuyu: well you see -eyes point on someone outside the window-

 

a female student with black hair, head to the campus.

 

Nayeon: Oh! it's Myoui Mina from class 3-A!! -facepalm- -gulp-

Tzuyu: -coughs- There should be a law against being as smart and pretty she is. I haven't heard any rumors about having a boyfriend, but she probably does! -coughs-

 -Mina suddenly looks at Tzuyu's direction staring-

-clatters-

Tzuyu: ah, she's looking this way!! -slipply slides inside the wall-

Nayeon: what are you doing?

Tzuyu: -coughs- Nothi--ing. but nayeon-ah~..

Nayeon: yeah?

 

Tzuyu: what would you do ,..-mumbles-  If a girl asked you out?

Nayeon: -spaced out, thingking that tzuyu's question is just a joke- I wouldn't  do anything. My poor hands are already full dealing with the boys that are throwing themselves at me.

So Tzuyu, did a girl ask you out again?

- Tzuyu's face turned blunt-

Tzuyu: argh, why is it always me? -worried- . I'm stupid and not really skilled at anything, and there are a lots of cool girls out there.

Nayeon: you should already know why.

-Tzuyu had a question mark on her head- -loadiingg-

Nayeon: ... never mind... well everyone wants an idol to worship while they work their of at this strict all girls highschool. You're always smiling, so it's easy for you to fit into the role.

Tzuyu: so,.. she's  just joking. just joking -sarcastically smiles-

Nayeon: Tzuyu...-looks at Tzuyu in a scary expression-

Jus who the hell asked you out? I thought you were used to this, who freaked you out?!

Tzuyu: she's gotta be joking right? I mean I nerve talk with her.

I'm really confused why she do it to me..! -nervous and worried expression on her face mixed-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

-glances outside the window to look at mina-

 Tzuyu : but she doesn't seem like she'd joke about itit, so im not sure how to take it.

Nayeon: - both side looking at mina and Tzuyu, and she was shocked-  huh!?

Tzuyu: what! you asked!

Nayeon: wh-- whaaattttt!!?!!!!  she's probably joking Tzuyu..

Tzuyu: y-yeah right! 

****

-flashback-

Mina: I think I'm in love with you.

I thought maybe shed told the wrong person. before I could respond, she ran away.

But the pale skin on her neck was bright red.

 

so she had to have been talking to me.

it's so hot, but why me?

the first time I talked to her  was when I was helping out with the school beautification project.

 

 

Coach: Chou! 

Tzuyu: huh!? -jolted-

Coach: are you just going to go home without shooting a single bow?

-Tzuyu hurriedly runs-

Tzuyu: i-ill shoot some right now!

Jeongyeon: hey Tzuyu! don't forget about the warm ups! -laughs-

Coach: she's completely spaced out today..

 

-aimed for the center

-concentrated

-shot at the ace-

-crowd at awe-

 

teammate: her form is so beautiful.

Coach: she's not really paying attention though. -pissed-

 

bunch of girls squeaking outside watching Tzuyu shoot.

girl1: oh man! she was so cool!

girl2: I've fallen for her again! 

-gigggles-

Nayeon: -whispers- morons.. -pissed-

girl1: that's just what we'd expect from a competition regular like her!

girl2: so we should cheer her on!

Nayeon: -thingking- I really cant believe that she doesn't notice all this attention.

-Nayeon walking pass the hallway-

girl1: I heard that Tzuyu Chou has a childhood friend,but that doesn't mean she can keep her around all the time.

-bunny is pissed-

Nayeon: what a pain, I'll just wait for Tzuyu outside.

-Nayeon passed by at mina, whose attentively hearing the girl 1's word's-

girl2: ah, she finally left. hey, is it true that she's popular among both guys and girls?

girl3: what? really?!

****

as Nayeon heading to the archery club room, she suddenly stops, Mina was in calling her from afar.

Mina: hey, you..

Nayeon: yeah? you need something?

Mina: you're always hanging around with Tzuyu right?

Nayeon's expression suddenly went annoyed.

Nayeon: doesn't look like people like you. (is she picking a fight with me?)

Mina: if you really care about Tzuyu as an childhood friend,if yout hang out too much with her, people might start spreading rumors about her. then leaving herher alone more often would be the right thing to do.  - cold expression but worried-

Nayeon: hey. -points at Mina that made her suprise- Tzuyu doesn't like you, okay? not even a bit.

Mina's aura went low and down. Nayeon only gave her a smirk face.

 

Tzuyu: hey Nayeon! were you talking to someone?

Nayeon: Oh, no.

Tzuyu:  sorry to make you wait for me for something I forgot. -heheh-

Nayeon: -handed the candy- don't worry about it, I learned something interesting after all. -smirks-

Tzuyu: oh?

Nayeon: prepare yourself Tzuyu! she's serious!

leaving Tzuyu again with a question mark on her head.

****

-Tzuyu wearing plain shirt and a low knee pants-

How did things ended up unlike this..

alone with Mina 

again.

Oh right, the school beautification project. clean up the school grouped into two.

just my godam luck.

Mina looks calm, back then I didn't feel like I hahad to give her the answer of her confession.

but being alone with her now..

 

 

 

we suddenly picked the same garbage, our hands touched. we both jolted.

Mina: ah, I'm sorry...! -she went cheeky- could you please throw it for me? -shy-

Tzuyu: o-- Kay.

-trash suddenly snictched by a branched, the garbage is now scattered everywhere-

Tzuyu:.....

Mina:.....-worries-

Tzuyu: I'll just tie it.  -strong grip-

-ties-

Mina: Tzu--

-rips again-

Mina: I'm sorry. I bet you're acting weird, because I said that weird thing to you. -turns around- 

That's!! .. just forget about it! I was nervous and .. it was a joke, okay? -blush-

while Tzuyu was just oh.

Tzuyu: (I knew it was a joke) 

Mina: so uh, don't worry about it, okay..

Tzuyu suddenly smiles on Mina, that made her smile too. 

-sparks-

Tzuyu: I should apologize too, for making things all weird between us. haha, let's go throw this away! -grins-

Mina: O-okay! -smiles back-

***

-they threw the last trash-

 

Tzuyu: senpai, why did you say that to me?

Mina: huh?

Tzuyu: I was wondering why you'd say that to someone.. like me? I'm not really special or anything..

Mina: -eyes glitters- are you serious? In may, you participated in the novince archery tournament right? you were chosen to represent the second and third years..

Tzuyu: Yes! I was! -smiles-

Mina: and every arrow you shot hit the bullseye. You were so beautiful, everyone fell in love..

Tzuyu: o-oh senpai! I can't believe you knew about that? -happy while strolling around-

while Mina is blushing hard like crimson red.

Mina: We'll...

Tzuyu: senpai, I was thinking about this before, but..

Tzuyu's hand suddenly caressing through her  Mina's hair that made her moved a space.

 

Tzuyu: your skin is really pale.

Mina:..-blushed- huh?

Tzuyu: that's why you get red so quickly -touching Mina's cheeks- look! even your ears are red easily.

Mina abruptly avoided her touch, she's blushing too hard already.

Tzuyu: that must , do you get sunburned easily?

Mina: Tzuyu.

Mina suddenly hold Tzuyu's hands that made her eyes widen.

 

-winds suddenly went into rage-

Mina: the.. the truth is that I..

Mina stopped and saw Tzuyu get hit with the branches of leaves.

Tzuyu: The hell! goddam branch! there's a spider web on me!! gwaaahh!!

Mina: -giggles- sit down, I'll get it off you.

Tzuyu followed what Mina said.

****

 

Tzuyu: Thanks.

While mina was busy getting spider webs on Tzuyu's hair.

Mina: It's weird I figured you'd hate spiderwebs and stuffs like that.

Tzuyu: really? screaming kyaa! or something like that? haha

 

Mina's glances went to Tzuyu's neck and blushed looking at it.

*kiss*

Mina: okay, I got it.

 

 

Tzuyu's eye went wide. touching her neck. she was confused. her eyes went to mina whom just smiling at the back.

Mina: what's wrong? -smiles-

Tzuyu:.. nothing..

****

 

It felt warm and

a little wet

 

touching my neck again. 

 

Nayeon: what's wrong with your neck?

Tzuyu: don't touch it!

Nayeon: what?! I'm just tryingn to help!

 

My excitement keeps growing,

I'm being violated by thiis sweet poison.

 

****

Its so hot today! (92° f)

teammates: urrrgh we want to rest!

Coach: stop complaining! -evil laugh-

Tzuyu: Its so hot, but it makes me want to shoot even more. like I'll go crazy if I don't.

-sweats raining-

 

Coach and Teammates: what's happening to her? is she stressed out -gossiping-

 ****

 

..She probably thought that was weird.

I wonder if she figured it out. she probably did.

 

Mina: ooh jeez! why did I go and do that!? -blushed-

 

I know that

I wasn't expecting anything back from her when I asked her out

but..

If I could get closer to her..

If I were  just a little closer to her, then

Is it even right to be close to her?

 Just by thinking the fact the I'm in love with her

I feel like to jump out of my skin   

I feel guilty

I almost thought it was a ual harrasment

 

 

Mina: -walking, heading home- -flustered thinking about what happened lately-

 

 

 

Tzuyu:....! Mina senpai..!!!

-Mina turned around and sawTzuyu hurriedly heading to her-

Mina: wha-what is it?! you're still in your archery gear..

Tzuyu: -heavy breaths-  there's.. something I've got to.. make sure of..

Mina: -clueless- make sure of?

Tzuyu: senpai, about that time you asked me out.. -pause with tiredness-

 

Mina: T-that was just..! -hesitates- 

Tzuyu: When you said it was a joke, I was really shocked! 

Mina: huh?

 

I thought that it would be better off knowing.

 

Tzuyu: my friend even told me the you were just teasing me. but

 

             I Still thought on how I'd respond to it, and 

 

But this poison is spreading throughout my body.

 

Tzuyu: would it be okay if I fell in love with you, senpai?

-Mina was so happy and cried-

 

Once I remember the taste

 

Mina immediately hugs Tzuyu with feelings she endured for long time.

****

 

Nayeon: so, -scary face- WHAT HAPPENED YESTERDAY?

Tzuyu: what are you so worked up about Nayeon? your kind of creeping me out.

Nayeon: I've been hearing it everywhere! what happened yesterday?! how do I not know!?

Nayeon put a knuckle on Tzuyu's head and sarcastically choked her. lol

Nayeon:Jeez! you really piss me off! what happened yesterday tell me!!

Tzuyu: gghh..ah!!

Nayeon was like "don't run from me" while Tzuyu hurriedly went to greet Mina.

 

Tzuyu: Senpai! senpai!

Mina: Tzuyu-san! -flowers blooming within her face-

Nayeon was like "where did flowers come from her face"

Tzuyu: -hand signing a wave- Mina senpai, you've never met Nayeon right? she's my childhood friend!

Mina:...

Nayeon:....

 

-Awkwardness feels the air-

 

Mina & Nayeon: N-nice to meet you..

Tzuyu: ??

 

Oh.

a spider on your shoulder! -points-

 

-Mina screams louder than the trucks beep-

Mina: KYAAAAA!! GET IT OFFFFFFFF!!!!

Tzuyu: what's wrong senpai?, I thought you were okay with spiders?

Mina: I hate them! I really hate them! -irritates- back then I was just trying to touch y-_

Tzuyu:......

Tzuyu: you're so cute -laughs-
