Chapter 4: Tricky Talk

"Ibuki!"
A voice yelled, and instantly Ibuki sat up. She looked around and sighed with relief, realizing it was only Chi Chi. "Geez Chi Chi...Ibuki is wondering why your visiting Ibuki more than usual!" She stated and stood up. "Sorry Ibuki! I just can't help but wonder what in the world you got him! The suspense has been killing me! Oh, and having Usami write the note for you wasn't such a great idea you know..." Chi Chi said as she grabbed Ibuki's hand. Ibuki blushed in embarrassment and pulled away from Chi Chi's grip. "No no no! Ibuki thought of...uh...most of it...! But Ibuki's handwriting isn't the greatest you know...!!" She said in defense and turned away.
"...also, Ibuki was the one to think of the present to give him! It was a plushy puppy..." She said, and more red came across her cheeks. "Ooohhh that sounds so cuuuute!" Chi Chi said and squealed.
"Urk! Uh uh uhh! Ibuki wants to wake up now!" The musician stated and slowly started to wake up.
"Ibuki! Wait!"

Ibuki woke up, and felt something soft next to her. "U-Usami?!" She yelped and turned to help her, and picked up...a toy teddy bear? "Oh my god! You scared Ibuki half to death Dream!" She said and let out a big sigh of relief. Ibuki then stood up and walked to the kitchen to get something to eat.

Togami woke up abruptly, waking from a bad dream. He shook his head and sighed. "Thank god..." He mumbled and started to get dressed and fixed up. For some reason, he couldn't stop thinking about the note Ibuki wrote him, and the toy puppy. It was really cute, but he couldn't admit that to himself. But the note...
Was it tricky talk?
Was Ibuki trying to...get somewhere?
Or start something romantic? Ibuki had been getting more attached and close to him than usual, and even caught her blushing a bit, but Togami never saw her as the kind of girl to start getting romantic...but it was probably for the best, because Togami thought that Ibuki was....
Groooowl!
Togami put a hand to his stomach and frowned. He was really hungry! He ran over to eat cereal, when he suddenly realized something....
The day they had to meet up by the tree was in two days! That's so...far....
Togami suddenly stopped, and looked at the ground. Was he really that eager to see her?
Togami blushed and got out the milk and picked out a cereal box. He reached up to get a bowl, and suddenly noticed in the corner of his eye....
Outside the window was Hinata, approaching his house! Oh god, how he wished he didn't arrive without notice! But it was odd for him to arrive....
-
Ibuki was sitting down, watching tv, when suddenly Usami appeared! "Usami?! How did you get in here?" Ibuki asked. "The door was unlwocked...I came with Komaeda to visit you!"
"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!"
Ibuki nearly fell out of her seat at the mention of the word. Why did trash want to see her? I mean...why did Komaeda want to see her?! Why did he come to her house?!
"Something wrong Ibuki?"
"Eep!!"
Mioda yelped and turned around to the sorce of the voice. Komaeda stood there with a smile on his face.
"What do you want?" Ibuki asked and frowned nervously. Komaeda tilted his head and smirked. "What? I can't visit a friend?" He asked with a slight chuckle.
"I-Ibuki's not saying that....Ibuki just thought there was a reason, since you don't visit Ibuki a whole lot...." She said and pushed her two fingers together.
"Heh, I guess your right. Well there is a reason I'm here." He said and sat down next to the musician. "What's been going on with you and Togami? I mean, not that there's really that much of a problem, but....I can't say he is a trustworthy guy."
-
Creaaaaak!
The door slowly opened and Hinata was revealed. "Hey Togami! Um, I know it seems weird for me to be here but.... I was just here to ask if this toy puppy was yours....I know it's a bit weird but...."
Hinata started and held out the toy. Togami's eyes widened. No way he was going to tell Hinata he owned a plushy of a dog! He might get the wrong idea!
"...Its um...it's... Ghh, I don't know who's it is....why do you care?"
Togami asked and adjusted his glasses. "I was just wondering because it was laying by the trashcan. It was a really windy day, so I assume someone must have accidentally dropped it and it flew away...."
Hinata said and shook his head. "Sorry. I won't bother you for any longer! I was just wondering...." Hinata said and started to walk away.
Togami closed the door and faceplamed in private. Shoot! How was he going to get that plushy back?! And more importantly...
Togami ran towards the window. It was open for some reason...he must've forgotten to close it overnight...
But that's not the problem! How would he get the plushy before he asked Ibuki about it?! If Ibuki hears it was by the trashcan, she might think that he tried throwing it away!
"Shoot...." Togami mumbled under his breath and dashed out the door. "Ugh..." He said and caught up to Hinata. "Wait! Its Ibuki's! I'll return it to her, I was going to see her later today anyways!" He said.
"You sure? I can return it to her!" Hajime said but Togami shook his head.
"It's fine...."
"I know it's yours Togami."
"GHHH!"
-
"Not trustworthy?"
Ibuki repeated back to Komaeda in question. "Well, I wouldn't want to ruin you and Togami's thing going on here. Let's just say he's kind of a...imposter. Anyways!" Nagito said and stood up, walking towards Ibuki's bed and picking up Dream. "Hey!"
Ibuki yelped in defense and stood up. "Don't touch him!" Ibuki demanded and Komaeda chuckled. "It's just a bear, what's so special about it-"
CRASH!
Ibuki elbowed Komaeda in the stomach and sent him flying onto the bed. He released the bear and Ibuki caught him. "Your really going to get on Ibuki's nerves if you do that!"
She stated and hugged the bear tightly. Suddenly, the musician spotted Hinata holding the toy puppy she had given Togami. Or at least, that's what she thought she saw. She walked towards the window to get a better look, and yep! Sure enough, that was the toy! Togami came up behind him in seconds though....I wonder how he knew Hinata had it.
"Ghhhhh.....ahhhh...wow Ibuki you know how to really hurt someone....." Nagito said in pain, but he was smiling.
"I-Ibuki is really sorry! I-Ibuki didn't mean to hurt you that badly!!"
The musician said and ran over to get an ice pack. She grabbed the ice pack and ran towards Komaeda, handing him it.
"T-thanks..." The luckster said and took hold of the ice pack, pressing it against his chest.
"Ibuki's really sorry again..." She said and placed Dream down. "It's fine...people l-like me don't deserve an apology..." He said and chuckled.
"That's not true!"
Ibuki protested and puffed up her cheeks. "Okay okay..." Nagito said. "So...since Ibuki hurt you I guess I could tell you what's going on...but it's nothing important!" Mioda stated and Komaeda nodded.
"So...Ibuki and Togami meet up every then and now by the cherry tree. We just talk and hang out. You know, we talk about what's been happening over the days with our life."
Ibuki said and shrugged. Komaeda frowned at this. "I thought you two were planning something...how disappointing...." He said and stood up, giving the ice back. "Well if that's all, I'll be on my way. But before I go...."
Komaeda said, and he walked towards Ibuki. He kneeled down next to her, and planted a kiss on her lips.
He broke from the kiss, leaving Ibuki shocked and scrambling for words. She didn't like Komaeda, but this ruined everything! If Togami found out, he might think they're dating, or even worse, think she wasn't interested in him!
Komaeda smirked and left.
"I wonder how this relationship will end."
"Why do you want our relationship ended?! Ibuki doesn't love Komaeda! Ibuki loves Togami! Why are you so against that."
"Let's just say...
He's an imposter.
I'm doing you a favor, I really am! Trust me, your not the one I have my eyes on."
Nagito said, and left the scene. Usami was in the kitchen happily cooking, seeing Komaeda leave. "Ibuki? Are you okay? What happened?" Usami asked.

That's when Ibuki broke out crying.
((HEY GOOD CHAPTER AM I RIGHT? IM RIGHT ARENT I HUE HUE HUE! Plot twist.))
