"Wow Yamada! You look like crap!" Miyabi said when she, Miyamura, and Yamada, who for some reason had switched bodies with Shiraishi, were gathered in the club room before class started. Ever since they started the supernatural club, they've been hanging out in the club room before and after school every day. However on this particular day, Yamada was very grumpy, with dark shadows under those glaring pink eyes.
"Shut it, I'm not in the mood," he grumbled in Shiraishi's voice.
"Why are you in Shiraishi's body this early in the morning?" the white-haired student council member asked. Usually the magical duo would wait until after the first class to switch bodies, but he was already in the girl's delicate figure when he entered the clubroom.
"She was invited to a sleepover and like the studious hermit she is, had me take her place," he grumbled with irritation, "My god, those girls never shut the fuck up! All they ever talked about was bras and 'how hot Miyamura is!' Now where is she?!"
"Yamada-kun." The guy in Shiraishi's body turned to the sound of his voice saying his name, jaw dropping to the floor. His entire body was covered in countless purple bruises and scratches, which were barely covered by a few bandages. His face was decorated with a black eye and a cut on his lip.
"What the hell did you do in my body?!"
"I got into some trouble with a gang," she explained, calmly and nonchalantly.
"What? What happened?" Miramuya asked her.
"They were picking on a little kitten so I punched them and they started kicking me in the stomach, and pushing me to the ground, and beating me up. Oh, they also threw me into a dumpster in an alley."
All that because you tried to save a cat?!
"Wow, that must have hurt. Are you okay, Urara-chan?" Miyabi asked, concerned for her friend.
"Yes, now that I saved the kitten," she said, blushing from her accomplishment (or perhaps from how cute the kitten was).
"Whatever, let's switch back now." His slender, rough lips touched Shiraishi's soft pink skin as he felt his soul transfer to his own body. Once they separated, Yamada instantly felt the pain of the injuries she sustained while in his body rush to his nerves. And there was a lot more injuries than the ones he could see.
He felt his skin sting from the fresh air hitting the cuts and scratches. He wrapped an arm around his side when he found it hurts too much to stand straight. Not that he could with a bruised knee threatening to buckle under his weight. Scabs colored his knuckles dark red, aching every time he clenched his fist. His eye, nearly swollen shut, could barely blink without forming tears. His lip, heavy and numb from the contact of the kiss.
"Aughhhh...everything hurts like hell! How did you make it look like nothing?! My back is killing me!"
"It was worth the pain, helping the kitten."
"And what the hell?! Why do I still feel so tired after switching back? You know what? It doesn't matter, I'm going home. Can barely walk because of you..."
"Oh no you don't," Mirayuma said, stopping Yamada, "you have a physics exam to take in second period and you can't miss it."
What is with this school always giving us tests?! But if I miss this one, I could end up expelled. Fuck!
"Fine..." he groaned, "Shiraishi, switch with me."
"Uh, she left already," Miyabi said, pointing to the empty chair the blonde had previously occupied.
"What?!" he cried. He ran out the room, his knee throbbing with each step he took. Damn it, where'd she go?! If I don't find her before the test, I'm screwed!
He tried searching for her behind the school where they would sometimes kiss. However, he found a certain green-haired witch standing there instead.
"Ah, Yamada. I need to speak with you," Otsuka said, eyes shyly peeking out of her bangs.
"Can't right now, I'm looking for Shiraishi."
"Because of the 2nd period physics exam, right?"
"You have it too?"
"Yes, and I have an idea how to pass it. But I need you to kiss me." Oh no. He knew what she meant, but he couldn't handle the price that came with it. The last time she had given him telepathy powers, his brain felt like exploding from all the voices invading his thoughts. And the last thing he wanted to deal with, along with everything else that hurt like hell, was a skull-splitting headache.
"Sorry, I can't deal with telepathy right now, I-" he couldn't finish. Her lips locked onto his, forcing him into a kiss with the shy witch.
Can you hear me, maggot?! Her words entered his head like a storm, immediately erupting a headache in his grey matter.
Ow...yes I can hear you just fine!
Get the answers and report your ass to the classroom at 0800 hours. Don't be late!
Yeah, yeah...
Is that how you speak to your commanding officer?!
Yes sir! I mean, no sir!
"Um, I'll see you then." she said timidly before running off and leaving Yamada alone with the pain stinging in his head. So not only do I have to get through the school day wishing I was out of my misery, I also have get the answers to the exam or face the wrath of commander Otsuka.
….oh crap...
