------------------------------------------------------------
Jun looked at the time. God why was Aya was always late? It wasn't the normal type of girl late either...like I was doing my make up! or...I was curling my hair!

It was more like...I was sleeping...and I saw a really hot car I just had to drive!

But she knew punctuality was one of the things that kept him sane...he hated it when anyone was late, even her. So he bet that she'd probably asked the plane to come late just to piss him off.

That idiot.

It didn’t help that her private jet was landing in the worst gate on Narita with food miles from it, her flight was coming in at six and he’d stayed up until three to see Mao stumble in holding her lips. At that very moment he'd been reminded of the multiple girls he'd often kissed and that had thrown him into major depression.

HE MISSED KISSING! (But that didn't mean he was going to resort to guyxguy kissing...hell no)

Though if he'd had any doubt on what Toma and Mao might have talked about on their date he knew now...they didn't talk much at all. Now all she'd be able to talk about when he got back would be Toma. As if that girl who completely didn't deserve his loss of breath already didn’t do enough of Toma this, and Toma that. It disgusted him how she'd giggled loudly entering the room, what if he'd been sleeping!? What would she have done then when he'd woken up?! (Of course he couldn't sleep at all until he heard her come in late at night...past curfew might he add).

Today morning though he'd acted out his evil plan of revenge. Ah yes a plan so evil that even Inoue Mao would be struck by it's...evilness. (Okay so he really didn't know any other word for evil other than evil...maybe an investment in a thesaurus should help..) Today...he had...he had...

not left a note for her.

YES! Let her worry! (If she even bothered) and get all flustered (again she would need to bother about him for this) and realize that she missed him and the worry that she felt could only be quenched by kiss- oh who was he kidding?

Not only was his plan completely horrible but Mao would never do that. He himself was too late to woo her even if he could.

Which he couldn't because he was pretending to be a girl.

He glanced down at his pants, he was wearing a suit today. God knew what kind of surprise Aya might throw at him, so prepared he'd come as a guy.

He glanced at his phone and saw the list. 10 Missed Calls.

He knew from who.

Ugh that idiot. He'd call her tomorrow but really she'd done the stupidest thing possible. How was he supposed to support her too? It wasn't like he could run around taking care of a girl he wasn't really supposed to know and who could reveal his secret to the entire world.

Damn stupid girls and their pride...and the fact that they were kissing everyone but him.

“What the-? Jun-chan I will never understand you. No he didn’t get any. I’m still a and I will never ever have …or at least until Toma asks me to.”

Ahh where had that thought come from? He thought uselessly and realized yes...those words had been the phrases (oo synonym) that had kept him from sleeping the night before. He'd been afraid that Mao might not return at all. Would she really do it that easily? Had Toma asked her to last night? The questions kept running through his head...and he couldn't act out on anything (not that he should anyways cause it would go away as quickly as it was there). He didn’t trust Toma at all. Toma would use Mao to keep himself feeling good. Jun had a feeling. It wasn’t as thought his feelings were really credited or anything and they were usually wrong when it came to girls but he still had a feeling…

Just then he spotted a girl who resembled Aya walking out of the weirdest gate on Narita...but she was nothing like Aya. She was wearing the most elegant Burberry trench coat, gorgeous manolo blahniks, the biggest chanel sunglasses he'd seen, and her hair was long and straight again. Lastly...there was actually make up on her face.

This girl couldn't be Aya.

“Yo!” She yelled out.

Okay so maybe she was Aya. No one but Aya could actually use that atrocious word and think it was cool.

He stood rooted to his spot though finding the insult unable to make it's way out of his throat. He was utterly speechless as this completely modified Aya came towards him. She looked so different. What had happened? This was her...her old look.

Why had she changed again? Reverted back to the form that used to hate him so dearly? Watching her grin at him he was almost afraid of her. It was as if he’d been shoved into a time machine. Aya, the one that rejected him, was coming towards him. He could only imagine one reason that this Aya would be raising her hands like that…to choke him. His heart started beating fast. No...Aya couldn't go back to how she was before...if she did...then the phoenix that had died in his heart would burn up and rebirth itself.

“I missed you.” She said suddenly hugging him. Jun gulped. Aya was hugging him. Having her hug him and not turn him away...in this form...he'd always imagined it but he'd never thought it would feel this good. The fourteen year old weirdo in him started rejoicing.

“Aya,” He said slowly. Yes...he'd been able to make conversation thank god.

Aya gave him the widest smile possible as he stared at her with his mouth wide open.

“Don’t worry idiot. Surprised to see you here as a guy though. I thought for sure I'd be calling out for Miss June! Surprised you're here on time too. But enough of your surprises hun. I've got a little one for you.” She said winking. Jun gulped. THERE WAS MORE? What on earth was this crazy girl upto?

He couldn't help but think that he wanted the surprise to be a kiss...maybe even in an airplane washro-

STOP THINKING ERTED THOUGHTS JUN! He smacked his head a little and saw Aya was staring at him in a confused manner.

Right he'd never replied.

“Oh ,” He said grinning weakly. He had never really acquired the taste for Aya's 'surprises'. They were usually what you least expected and wanted.

As he followed her little sounding steps back through the gate and into her plane he already knew what the idiot had done thinking it would be a good thing.

“Holy you didn’t. Holy you didn’t.” He chanted hoping his prayer would come true. First Erika...then this...when he got home Mao better not do something unexpected...he'd go mad and kill all the women in the world or something.

“It’s only for the week and then we’re gone I promise.” Aya spoke cheerfully grabbing onto his hand and Jun immediately cursed the way she looked right now again. It was what he'd always hoped for...two years ago.

So why on earth was it making a difference now?

Jun stepped into the plane almost afraid of what he would see inside he gulped nervously. Aya, Aya, Aya he thought tiredly.

“Holy ,” He said immediately feeling another ten years of his life go away.

Ahh the stress!

“Hey June,” He heard Ryo say teasingly as he passed by him with Koyama and Uchi...or as Jun refered to them, his lackeys.

She brought the bastard and his buddies. Aya really didn't have a head did she? She brought along the one person who would probably weaken her the most.

It was Ryo...he knew it was Ryo that did it now. The way Aya looked right now...it was all him. That di-

Oh he shouldn't say that...he was a guy.

AHH IT WAS SO HORRIBLE BEING TWO THINGS!! And now he had this mess, that Aya had wrapped with ribbon and gifted him, to deal with.

Cause obviously Aya knew him so well to know that he completely wanted to like totally see Ryo right now! (He was such a girl) This better not have been the surprise that Aya had wanted him to stay for. If it was…it was a horrible messed up surprise. He wasn’t at all happy to see the ‘-with-charm’(F. being a guy...well for another year at least). Jun knew Ryo was just a fake all over. Sadly Ryo was a smart faker so he never showed that side of himself anywhere where Aya might even remotely be, for example...Ryo was always nice in the boys changeroom which Aya frequented , Jun had always questioned why she changed with the boys.

He'd even saying that her chest would be just like a guys and that's why she did it when she'd never answered him.

That day the bottle of rubbing alcohol he'd bought the week before finished.

“Heh I really really want to see how Mao grew up neh?” Jun heard Koyama say and turned around shaking his head. He hadn't been thinking of her? So why had he heard her name? He was probably just imagining it. He had to be imagining it. He couldn't deal with more drama.

“I just want to see how Shun’s doing at Eitoku.” He heard Ryo reply and immediately Jun snapped his head around squealing like a girl loud enough that Ryo turned around to look at him like he was scum.

No this was not happening. Mao could be someone else...but Mao and Shun...this was no coincidence. In this one week it was going to be unavoidable that he would be discovered by yet someone else. To keep his gender a secret he'd have to work even harder than before.

With two groups of people on top of that.

He felt the sudden need to call up Erika, not Mao’s best friend but the little one. She’d always understood him when he freaked out after class on something he'd said or he hadn't been girly enough. Sure she'd pissed him off with her messed up attitude last night but...Erika would calm him down like she usually did.

Things were horrible for him so he knew the moment Aya continued on through the plane towards the back that the little surprise she had for him still hadn't been revealed and that his life was going to get much worse.

And it did just as he'd expected. As he walked into the luxury private jet with the waiters walking around with trays of caviar and champagne he knew for sure that his life as he knew it was over.

“JUN Oh my god I haven’t seen you in ages. I missed you so much do you have any idea how much I’ve missed you? I swear there was so much missage. So sorry I totally freaked and ran away to boarding school but remember! You were the only one I did send letters to!” A beautiful long legged blond girl spoke lunging into Jun's arms and as she separated from him a just as beautiful petite brunette came up to him and pushed the long-legged blonde aside with ease and power that Jun hadn’t expected.

“She mustn’t have missed you more than Nate though.” Another shock as the usually cold and harsh Blair came upto him warmly and hugged him. “Missed you Junny-bunny. Hug me back dumb one.” She said giggling and Jun smiled back at her and hugged her back tightly. For Blair and Serena he'd always had a soft spot. They'd always tried to get him together with Aya.

Nate and Chuck came up to him together and offered him manly hugs...otherwise known as shoulder bumps.

“Great to see you man we heard what happened with your mom and your cousin from England. Your mom's such a to get you to get back in touch with your roots.” Chuck said and Jun was flabbergasted. This was the explanation Aya decided to provide to his friends. Great, so how was he going to explain the cross-dressing when they saw him prancing around in a sailor uniform?

“Hey,” He said speaking for the first time as he stared at the Manhattan princesses and princes.

They were finally here, he knew they’d come here soon enough but now he had to actually deal with this. A week into school and they were all here. It was rather hard to believe it had happened so soon.

He looked to Aya, hoping to find some pity or sympathy in her eyes for his situation but saw her give him a blank look with a wide stupid fake smile on her face. Everything looked fake on this face...this new face that used to be.

He found himself very angry with Aya. He was so angry at her the words weren’t able to make it out of his throat.

They all looked at him expecting something but Jun didn’t know what he was supposed to offer to them. What was it that they wanted from him? A proclamation of the missage back? He had missed them…in the beginning when Mao was a , when Aya had left him on this same ty terminal. Now though? He wasn’t sure if he did. And he definetely wasn't sure on how he’d deal with the mess Aya had handed to him on a platter, and even if it was silver there was no way he would be able to forgive her if his company or he drowned in it.

“You look like ,” He said to Aya suddenly and felt himself cringe at exactly how girly he was turning. That was his major insult that would cause her to feel bad? But as he walked out he knew that it was the truth he was speaking. He didn't even bother to look at her face as he turned his back on her and walked out of the plane. He hated her like this, like this perfect woman.

He liked his Aya flawed, crying and grasping onto his sleeve for help. He didn’t like her happy and perfect. Wasn’t that odd?

Who ever wished unhappiness for their best friend? For their childhood love? He’d certainly never thought he’d ever be that kind of person. He started towards the cab he’d told to wait for himself and Aya but now he entered it alone and started back to school.

Mao would probably still be sleeping, so he'd rest in the lounge for a while.

As he paid the cab and entered the school he realized he wasn’t a girl yet.

He'd forgotten to change.

He growled as he ran into the nearest girl’s washroom hoping no one was inside and luckily for him there was no one. After changing into a girl he started towards his room occasionally trying to squeeze his s to get some amusement out of it.

There was no amusement waiting for him inside his bra where his fake s rested. He wanted to howl. He didn’t know why he didn’t want to see his friends from New York right now but he just didn’t want to. That should have been enough, why did Aya do this without asking him?

Aya, why had she returned to him looking like that? Was she back together with Ryo? What was she thinking throwing so much at him and expecting him to accept it easily? Who the did she think she was? She wasn’t his everything! No she wasn’t and seeing her like that, changing without even considering him…no. He’d end his thoughts now before they got even more furious.

He entered his room automatically and saw, with some satisfaction, that Mao was sleeping. As she lay on the bed in her black spaghetti and the sheets mussed out over her body and her hair imperfect he wanted to yell his heart out at her. Another girl that infuriated him to no end.

He wanted to tell her she hadn’t looked pretty last night, that he knew Toma was lying to her and he was just going to use her because that was what you did with women like Mao who were poor and worth nothing, you used them, you used them like a Kleenex addict. He wanted to tell her that he didn’t want to bend down and kiss her as he saw her sleep in quietly with occasional gushes of air leaving her faultless lips.

But what would that do? Mao didn’t like him all that much and they’d only just become somewhat close friends. He couldn’t expect her to react to any of his true thoughts appropriately…or rather inappropriately, he thought kinkily. He wasn’t sure which one out of the two he would prefer personally.

He wanted to yell so loudly...that even that god he usually believed didn't exist would hear him and answer his painful pleas. Why was he reacting to the poor girl like this? She didn’t even own as much as Aya did. It was the anger he had on Aya that almost made him want to run towards Mao. It made no sense. He’d always thought that it was power that attracted him…true power like Aya would have in a couple of years. Not the power that Mao had here. Did she really deserve the heartbeats she got from him but so easily disregarded? Did she deserve to have someone like him around her? Of course not! But that didn’t change that she got the heartbeats from him and had him around her.

And he found himself knowing that he wouldn't want to change it even if she didn't deserve it.

She was trash. That was all she was…a poor piece of trash. She was spoilt now...Toma had had his hands all over Mao. She was probably tainted...she’d probably offered herself to Toma the first five minutes of their date he thought harshly. That was what poor girls had always done with him so Mao would obviously have done it with Toma.

But as he saw her turn and smile in her sleep he realized that all he was doing right now was taking out his temper on a sleeping girl who wasn’t aware of anything. Jun sat down beside her sleeping form and cleared the hair that was covering her forehead and gulped loudly as his skin came in contact with hers.

“Toma-chan. Atashi wa hontoni daisuki da yo!!! Daisuki me back beyotchhh! That's how we rolllll” Jun immediately started laughing loudly at the unexpected talk.

Mao's eyes flipped open in shock that someone was there and found herself staring at Jun's smiling face and grinned happily. For a second she remembered her groom from the wedding dream she’d had that Karaoke day. Her groom looked oddly similar to Jun-chan…but Jun-chan couldn’t be him could she?

Mao shook her head as she cleared the stupid grin off her face and kicked Jun off the bed sticking her tongue out. Of course not! Jun-chan was a girl! She tried to convince herself of this, as Jun stood up again tall as can be. She couldn’t help but think that she had her groom's height height.

"ITAI!" Jun yelped as she hit the floor from the kick.

No her groom better not be such a wimp. He had to be a strong man! Like Toma! But maybe with Yamapi's muscles..cause those were hot man.

And just like that Mao ignored Jun's presence completely again.

----------------------------------------------------------

Aya gulped quietly as they all sat in the car. She’d known that Jun would be pissed but she’d thought he’d deal. He’d always dealt with the obstacles she'd thrown at him in the end especially when it considered Serena and Blair.

Finally Aya turned around to hear Nate cough quietly. “A. I knew you were lying from the beginning so can you just tell us now what the is Jun doing in Tokyo?” He said quietly and Aya saw that Chuck was glaring at Nate as if he was telling to keep his mouth shut. Then again...Chuck had always given bad advice.

“Aya come on. Tell us...it's not like we'll tell. Nothing has ever been that big that it would affect our companies. So don't worry. Just tell us. 'Kay A?” Blair said looking at her boyfriend supportingly as she grasped his hand and Nate grinned back at her. But as Aya looked at all of them she couldn’t help but not want to tell them. She didn’t want to break her friendship with Jun over something so trivial and she knew that if she opened even once to these New York avid socialites that his information would be on gossipgirl.net in five seconds flat. Eastern Time.

And then the stock of Matsumoto Zaibatsu would fall and then his company would be in ruins.

“Ask him. If he wants to tell you he will. I’m sorry Nate. I just can’t okay.” She finally answered staring at the floor gulping slowly.

Blair looked meanly at Serena, who glanced away from her. Aya scoffed Blair said that she was pissed of with S. cause she had been gone for the whole time Aya had been down and had cut her hair but really she was pissed off because B. had found out that N. and S. had hitched up before she'd left.

Serena looked away from Blair and to Aya wondering why Jun had been looking at Aya with such ashamed eyes. She didn’t know too much about what had happened between them...how they'd gotten so close in the while she'd been gone.

“Why did he react like that when he saw you?” She asked immediately and Blair looked to Aya curiously as well. Chuck sighed shaking his head. Like he even cared about half this bull. He was just hear for the gossip and the drama...

and to hook up with some hot Japanese girl.

“I have to say I’m kind of curious as well Aya. I thought the first time I saw you, you were back with Ryo.” Blair said and Aya’s eyes widened as she remembered Ryo. She'd been forced to bring him along by otou-san when she'd told him that she was going to Tokyo for a week.

But she couldn't think of Ryo right now.

She wouldn’t think of anything but Jun. So she opened slowly. “I changed myself for one reason really. I realized that the reason I had cut my hair in the first place, and changed the way I talked was because I wanted to be something he would never love so I would have no danger of staying in love with him because he wouldn’t pay attention to me. That was my bull excuse that obviously didn’t last. I still love him in my heart which wouldn’t change its emotions so what the should my looks matter?” She said finally and watched Serena gasp at her and shake her head disapprovingly while Chuck wrapped his arms around Aya and Aya let him until he tried something erted as usual. That would be in about five minutes. Chuck always thought it took a girl five minutes to let him do something with her.

Sadly she couldn't believe method actually WORKED on some girls.

“Aya. Why do you do things like this to yourself? And to Jun.” Nate said a little breathless as he leaned his head back on the luxury leather seats of the long limo and Aya looked at him appalled at his words.

“There is nothing between Jun and I, Nate. You know that. We’ve cleared that trash piece of affection out a long time ago. I could never look at him that way.” She said, worried. They all knew that she couldn't love Jun...not while she still had Ryo in her heart and they way it was looking right now Ryo wasn't leaving forever and she wouldn't drag Jun along like that.

"Who the hell do you think I am Aya? Think some of Jenny Humphrey rubbed off on me or something just cause I kissed her a couple of times? Anyone can see that Jun seriously loves you…he loves you Aya. Not the you in this Burberry trench and not the you with the specially designed Links of London bling. He loves YOU and obviously you being the utter total you are just totally dissed him. I don't know what the hell he sees in you!” Nate yelled suddenly defending his best friend. Nate had tried to stay as quiet as possible for as long as possible but it just hadn’t worked out in the end. Aya had just angered him far too much with how blind she was.

If only Nate knew now that Aya wasn't the sole recipient of Jun's affections.

Aya stayed quiet but then suddenly as she started making sense of what Nate was saying and agreeing with him inside her head. He was completely right. But would she let him know that? Hell no. No one got away with yelling at her. “WHO THE DO YOU THINK YOU ARE TALKING TO ME? ABOUT JUN OF ALL PEOPLE. Who are you to Jun really Nate? His savior or something? His best friend? Don’t mess with me. Let me tell you the truth then shall I? Nate you aren’t anything to him really. Not someone he would consider important for his survival anyways because otherwise wouldn't Jun dearest have told you that he’s pretending to be a girl right now in one of the most prominent high schools in JAPAN?!” Aya yelled loudly pushing Chuck’s arm off her reflexively and she didn’t bother looking at Blair or Serena knowing their faces would be stuck in that shock look for a long time.

Aya suddenly realized what she'd said in a moment of passion. She started breathing loudly; she could feel her lungs contract with fear…what on earth had she done? Had she just outed him? What had she done?! What had she done?!

This wasn't right! She'd been trying to avoid making this sort of mistake! It didn’t make sense. She wasn’t supposed to do this…not to Jun.

Memories of what he had done for her throughout her life floated up in front of her eyes making her feel guiltier than ever. “,” Jun holding her hand when they were 9 in the middle of the storm that was occurring outside Camp Rich Kids in Vermont...that had been the start of his obsession with her. When they'd been locked in a cabin waiting for people to come find them. How he'd had survival instincts like that when he was just a nine year old like herself she had no clue. It had been the very first year of her being a rich...she'd been glad. She'd made a friend who could always save her. “,” Jun was holding her as she cried her heart about Ryo while he her hair even though she could hear the slight sniffles from him above. Even though she'd never been able to answer his feelings with the answer he wanted he'd stuck by her. He'd...he'd never do something like this to her. “,” Jun was cutting the last long lock of her hair off her head, they were officially celebrating her transformation into a hardcore kick girl...and then she had her first beer. Otherwise she'd been a hardcore champagne girl. They'd dared each other on who could finish it first, she'd won making her the manlier one. “,” He was smiling at her as she woke up from sleeping on the beanbag in his sister's house in Tokyo. He was watching over her...almost like a guardian angel. She didn't need one of those with Jun around.

“,” She said the regret in her voice apparent. It was biting and harsh. Slowly the others watched as tears started forming in her eyes.

Suddenly completely without prior warning as the car stopped in front of a red light A. bolted past N. and exited the limo, leaving B. S. N. and C. staring after her dramatic exit.

You know you love me,

Gossip Girl.
------------------------------------------------------------

A/N: Who liked this chapter? It's quite different. I had to end it with that. Anyone who knows the T.V. show or the Gossip Girl series knows it always ends like that. So that was a homage to the books and T.V show.

Also...noo that doesn't mean that the information got published in New York. None of that stuff has happened (yet.)

A lot of new characters were mentioned here one of which will be a very important character (but he was mentioned like once not even in an important manner) So let's see if you guys can guess who it was? (Open challenge to all my readers to who it was) Oh and this person didn't have any dialogue in the chapter, he wasn't even present (pretty big clue)

As usual I love my commenters and reviewers almost as much as I love my chocolate (which I so direly want). THANK YOU GUYS!: Makitear-chan, Zing, nad_skyblue91, Ichigokut3, sara, Calliope, gl, and biniBningPunkista!(Dudes I just type your names now eh? I can remember completely!! =D SO PROUD!)
