Thread: Thank You For Waking Me Up (Princess Pittooey and I)

Tsubaki could see how much that annoyed Jinji, but she wasn't completely sure why. It was a joke, for the most part, anyway. She sighed and then gave her sister a wave off, slipping her other earphone over her ear and as they got to school. It was a large building and there were lots of students hanging outside. Being late was arriving on time, they had come about five minutes before the bell rung and everyone had to go to homeroom. She barely got a chance to enjoy Endless Dawn before a familiar shadow came over her. More than that, it was simply three familiar presences. Tsubaki side stepped gracefully to avoid another surprise attack this morning. Now that she was awake and alert, she'd be having none of that. Her assailant let out a yelp as they tripped and fell into the dirt beside her. Red panties and a flash of blonde hair was the only thing she saw at the corner of her eye before she turned. Rei, Tsubaki started as she bent over and helped her friend up to avoid further embarrassment. Don't sneak up on me. You call that sneaking up? Another voice from behind her said, cheerful as ever. She was just trying to give you a hug, Tsubaki. Maybe if you weren't listening to your music all the time, you would have heard her calling your name. Tsubaki turned around to see her other two best friends, Tomoko and Haruhi. She didn't know which one of them spoke, honestly. What was that? Her eyes moved back and forth between the two girls as she removed her headphones lazily, using her free hand. Haruhi was talking to you. You're hopeless, Senpai. Tomoko muttered as Tsubaki pulled up Rei, who was laughing a little bit. I think I won't approach you from behind anymore, Tsubaki-Chan. She stated as she dusted herself off while they started walking into the building together. The bell hadn't rung yet, but that was okay. They needed to get to homeroom anyway. Sorry, you can have my breakfast if you want. It's still warm. Tsubaki told her as they made their way inside. They attracted everyone's attention as usual. The four of them were all considered popular, Tomoko being the newest of their clan and also a year younger than them. Tsubaki had saved her from being bullied her first year here, and ever since the girl had simply attached herself to her. Despite her attitude, she was really sweet and honest. That was what Tsubaki liked most about her. Too bad she didn't get along well with her sister. Really? Rei asked with hopeful eyes. That sounds wonderful, I love Mrs. Izumi's cooking! She said as she immediately began digging into her messenger bag. Tsubaki was used to it, honestly. She had known Rei for years. Food is all it really takes, isn't it? Haruhi asked Rei with a very charming smirk. The smart ass of the group, even more so than she was. She was also the athlete. People naturally and literally looked up to her. Haruhi had a different kind of popularity than she did. They matched well with each other for reasons she didn't quite understand. Yes, but we've been over this. Tsubaki answered for Rei, since the blonde was too busy trying to figure out what her surprise meal was. They somehow made it to their classroom, a handful of people already there.
