Original Stories Fan Fiction ❯ Love or Hate ❯ Volume Six, Chapter Thirty-Nine: Girl + Girl + Boy ( Chapter 39 )

Girl + Girl + Boy

Katsuya and Subaru may have opened the door for love. Hideki, Yoko, and Kasumi all feel freer to love. But what's this?

-Yoko-

This isn't my first time around the block. I know things. Love happens to be one of them. Well, attraction at least. I know what I want. The girls in my family taught me to go after what I want. Now that Subaru and Katsuya's relationship is out in the open, that frees me to try and get what I want.

I pulled out my phone and opened my texts. I smiled at the new message from Hideki. We barely get time to each other. I was glad that our bands are sharing a hotel together. I just haven't had the chance to talk to him.

“Hey, baby. I missed you. Can we meet up?” his message said. My cheeks flushed pink. I tapped reply on the screen.

“Yes! I know just the place,” I wrote. I added a winky face for an extra measure. I smiled at my message and hit send. My heart fluttered in chest. Oh… This could mean…

I must have been grinning like an idiot. I didn't care. This festival has given us many opportunities. I chose to take them.

-Hideki-

I smiled at her text. Yoko-san. Now that's a woman. Is it possible she could be real? She's not afraid to speak her mind. In fact, she was the one to make the first move. We met in the hallway. At first, I thought was scary-looking. The way she glared at me made me panic.

“Uh… uh… my name is Hideki. It's nice to meet you,” I said. I know it sounded dumb. That was all I could say at the time. Yoko raised her eyebrow at me.

“Hideki, huh?” she asked.

“Yeah…” I said. She didn't say anything. I started to wonder if I pissed her off.

“I'm Yoko,” she said.

“Oh,” I said. Not the best exchange in the world. It should've ended there.

But it didn't.

Somehow, we found it easier to talk. She always made the first move. Whether it was talking or a quick kiss, Yoko took the lead. It's always her. Well, not this time.

I'm going to be the one to make the first move. I'm going to confess my feelings. I'm going to do it today.

However, there's another girl who likes me. Oh… Yeah… Oh boy…

It doesn't help that Yoko is the older of the two. Yeah… I'm going to need so back-up on this.

-Kasumi-

I had one boy I was crushing on. But now, there's a man that I am interested in.

First came Hideki. He and I are the same age. He's young and fine as hell. When I first saw him, I knew I had to have him. Just one problem.

Yoko. Torii Yoko.

She's much older than me. I can't compete with her. She already had her sights on Hideki. Once she has her eyes on something or someone, it's done. You are out of the competition. I don't know what to do here. I think I'm going to have to give up on him.

But something inside won't let me. I have to at least try. I have to.

That's when I saw him.

Honda Tokuma.

Everything about him screams at me to run away. But yet, I can't help, but get closer. Gah! I don't know what to do here!

Okay, okay. I probably should back-up here. Let's take a breath. Breathe in. Breathe out. Breathe in. Breathe out. Okay, good. Right. Let me back up and tell you about my crush, Honda.

-Outside-

Things are about to get interesting.
