Chapter 6 - Just Do It and I Should Drink Milk More Often
~Len's POV~
I woke up abruptly to someone shaking me. "Ack!" I almost choked on my own drool. ...It's not weird. "I-I'm up! I'm up! What is it?" I looked at the person who woke me up. "Eh...? Miki? What do you want?"
Miki just grinned, handing me a few photos. She didn't say a word, only staring me down with the creepiest smile I've ever seen in my life.
Cautiously, I took the photos from her. I quickly paled as I examined them. "These...?!" I yelled, glancing up at Miki. "What are these?!"
"Pictures of you and Oliver," Miki replied bluntly, her eerie smile turning into one of pride.
"I know what they are!" I growled, glancing back down at them.
Miki rolled her eyes. "Then don't ask."
I snarled. Mostly out of embarrassment. How and where did she get these?! "How?! Did you forge these?!"
"No," She smirked, "you did."
I faltered a bit. What? How could I have done this? I've been asleep this whole time! Right...?
Yeah! There's no possible way I couldn't be done this! It's all Miki's fault for forging them!
"Don't lie to me!" I narrowed my eyes at Miki, clenching the photos in my hand, crumpling them. "Why did you make these?!" You know, I just realized that sometimes I get a bit to loud and aggressive when I'm mad.... Oh well.
"Hey, I only took the picture. You did all the magic for me~!" Miki snickered, placing a finger to the edge of her lips and acting innocent. "I didn't do a thing~!"
I faltered again. "I...did it...?" I was shocked by this. Wait a minute.... I think I get it now.... Not that I'm proud to say I do, though.... I must've done it. While I was asleep. Aren't I such a detective...? I was practically given the answer...! Hah....
Alright, quit being sarcastic to yourself, Len. Get back to the conversation. "Right," I mumbled aloud, sighing heavily. "Miki," I started, "please get rid of the photos. All of them." From how long I've know Miki, she's probably put about one hundred or more around the house alone. I'm surprised there's none in my room.
Miki pouted, whining like a puppy. "Aw, c'mon Len.... Such a loser...." She huffed, turning her gaze to the left in anger.
I just rolled my eyes at her. "Just do it."
She stuck her tongue out at me, crossing her arms. "Fine, but you owe me."
"Owe you what?" I asked in confusion and irritation, but she was already hurrying out the door before she could answer my question. I sighed, sitting down on the edge of my bed. "Did I...really...?" I murmured to myself, narrowing my eyes a bit in thought. If I did, which is most likely, I should probably apologize to Oliver for what I did while asleep.... It's not his fault for getting dragged into...well, bed because of me. I shivered slightly at how disgusting and awkward that sounded. Might wanna reword that before apologizing....
I yawned, as I was still tired because I had just woken up moments ago. I guess I should probably go see Oliver before anything gets worse than it already is....
I lazily stood up, walking out of my room to go find Oliver. Luckily for me, it seemed the he was sitting on the couch and staring off into space.
"Oliver...!" I called out to him once I had moved close enough for him to hear me without having anyone else listen. "C'mere." I waved him over to me and led him up to my room where we could talk privately.
"Listen," I started, sighing and hanging my head in apology, "I'm really sorry about...'that'." I laughed nervously, blushing slightly at the thought of it.
"O-oh...." Oliver blushed as well, scratching awkwardly at the back of his neck and turning his head away. "I-it's fine.... R-really. It w-was just an a-a-accident, s-so...." He trailed off, letting out a small nervous laugh as well.
"R-right...." I nodded, the awkward atmosphere increasing by the second. "A-anyway, t-that's all I wanted to s-say, so I'll b-be o-off then...." I coughed slightly, standing up and beginning to head out. "Y-you can stay here i-if you'd l-l-like...." Stupid stutter making it hard for me to speak. Why am I even getting so flustered? It was obviously an accident, so why do I feel so...strange when I think about it...?
Gah! I shook my head to just calm myself down. Why does this topic always make me so confused?! I don't even know how I'm feeling anymore!
I growled softly as I walked down the stairs and into the kitchen to grab a glass of milk. Drinking it all down in one gulp, I sighed in delight at how good it tasted. I should drink milk more often.
"Len! Hey!" Someone shouted at me and hugged me from behind.
"Eh?" I turned my head back to see who it was. "Eeeeehhhhh?! Gumi?! When did you get back?!" I was happily shocked and she let go of me, beaming with joy.
"A few hours ago. The U.S. is really cool. New York and Los Angeles are really big cities!" Gumi talked on and on about her concert tour in the U.S. and about all the sights she saw. To be honest, I was kinda jealous that I hadn't been to America yet....
"Wow...!" I was practically entranced by how cool that whole trip of hers sounded. "I wish I could've gone with...." I mumbled, pouting slightly.
"Me too, Len. It would've been fun to sing a duet with you." Gumi smiled at me, patting my head. "Well, I'm gonna go unpack my things. See ya later, Lenny~!" I hadn't noticed before, but she had tons of luggage behind her as she headed up the stairs toward her room. How does she even keep all of that...? Is there some secret compartment I don't know about?!
I sighed. Well, now that Gumi's back it's going to get more lively here again with all her stories about America. At least she had fun.
I sat down on the couch in the living area and just relaxed, thinking to myself. It was pretty calm today.... Well, for the most part. I glanced over at Gakupo and Ryuuto who where playing Chess. I was surprised at how good Ryuuto actually was at the game. Although the aura over there is pretty intense....
I shrugged, leaning back a bit against the couch. Today was just fine....
"Leeeeeeeeeeeeeen!" Suddenly, someone's deafening scream broke the silence and my train of thought. "Heeeeeelp meeeeeee!"
Oh. I knew that voice.... What trouble had Oliver gotten into this time...?
