A sound of something breaking
"Huh?! I asked you to bring me a milk box! Not orange juice! You piece of shit!"
I awake from sleep
A harsh kick was thrown at a poor boy, who whimpered at the sudden pain that shot through his now bruised cheek. His fearful eyes jolt up towards the senior student whom is feared by many. Their dyed dirty blonde locks were ruffled in a mess, bloody hues pierce the boy's direction...their foul mood wasn't helping either...
"I-I'm s-sorry! K-Kurosaki!" The boy scrambles to bow down, trembling as he could still feel the wrath of the upperclassman...
A sound full of unfamiliarity
Agitated, the upperclassman clicked her tongue with irritation. Turning to sit back down at her 'throne', her legs crossed as she looked down at the poor boy that quivered at her sight. She knew very well how frightening she was...
"I guess I have no choice...Go! Get out of my sight before I really sent you to hell!" The upperclassman hissed dangerously, agitated by a familiar headache that erupted.
Try to cover my ears but can't go to sleep
"Y-YES!" The boy scrambled away, too afraid to deserve another deadly beating.
She lets out a weary sigh, pinching the bridge of her nose, "Tch...First years...don't they have any sense?", The girl mumbled, closing her eyes from the pain that shot through her head. Annoyed, she drank the juice either way...hoping that the headache would soon go away...
"Banchō..." A familiar husky voice caught her attention. She glanced at the voice that was given by her righthand man...she could tell something's wrong...
"What is it now? A fight? Does Higashi High want to start off another war again?" The girl sighs, swinging her arm up to cover her red eyes...the light was increasing the pain in her head.
The pain in my throat gets worse
"Lucky for us, there is no fight. The Captain Of the Swim Team wants to talk to you," He says, catching her undivided attention. The girl peaked behind her arm, taking a glance at her right hand man...recognizing his slick blonde hair.
"The Captain?" She mumbled in confusion, interest now peeking through her red hues. She was lost in thought for a moment, wondering why he planned to visit her like that.
"Bring him in." She then ordered, hiding her eyes behind her arm once again...bothered by the light.
Try to cover it
"As you wish." He bowed in one knee with respect before going out and bringing the said man inside the abandon cottage that was located not too far from the school grounds...no one really knew where it came from...some say it used to be another classroom.
"Sheesh! This place smells like rotten corps...!" An oh-so-familiar voice mumbles out loud, as he walked in covering his nose in disgust. He was brought in by the blonde male, one who wouldn't stop fiercely glaring at him, not like it was the first.
"You got a problem, Captain?" She hissed, uncovering her eyes to glare up at him. The male could clearly tell that she was in a foul mood...
He smirked, despite the situation he was in. "You haven't changed a bit since you skipped out of the club."
I don't have a voice
She turned away, frowning at the sudden oh-so-familiar topic. When will he ever learn?
"I wasn't skipping, I quit the swimming club." She clears up, looking back at him with a glare. He sighs, walking closer to her to be face-to-face with his former swimming teammate...even if she looks like a man, she was indeed a beauty. Despite a hairstyle that often mistaken her as a man, the way her fierce yet big red hues clearly show otherwise. Her smooth light caramel skin...a small yet built frame...beautiful.
"Mitsuru...do you really hate swimming?" He asked her, taking hold of her fragile-looking hand, giving it a good squeeze. She frowned, turning away whilst gently taking her hand away from his strong yet gentle hold. She thought about his words...he will never understand...
Today I hear that sound again
"It's not that I hate it...I...N-Never mind! Forget about it! Why are you here anyways?" She turned to look back at him, clearly changing the topic. She had a feeling he was here for something else rather than asking her that same stupid question.
Tell me if my voice isn't real
"Well...I need your help." He starts off looking away from her intense gaze. He was lost in thought...should he tell her? Finding the courage to do so, he looked back at her to see if he could continue. Luckily, her piercing red hues swirled in interest, indicating to move on.
If I shouldn't have thrown myself away
"We are gathering new members to join our swim team, and since you're not going to continue to swim with us, you can help Nao train those new members for the upcoming relay races. So, are you willing to help us?" He finished holding her hands once more, his gentle hues pleading for her to agree.
What I was supposed to do back then
She looked away thinking about it...
"No." She bluntly states.
"Eh?" His form suddenly turned white by her blunt response...although he expected much.
"Mitsuru! Please!"
"Nope, not doing it."
He pouted, frowning slightly until an idea popped in his mind.
"Well, that's just to bad... I was just thinking of buying you all sorts of desserts for you this whole year. But I guess that won't happen," He sighs, walking away until he felt a tug on his uniform. Bulls-eye...!
He smirked with triumph, unknowingly to the red eye female.
"Natsuya...?" He heard her feint voice, it was almost cute.
"Yes~?" He says turning around to face her, her hand still at hold of his uniform.
"W-Will I really get to try those sweets...a shortcake?" She asked, as red hue began to cover her unpale cheeks...
He beamed at the sight, engulfing the female in a tight embrace at how adorable she was acting.
"Yes you will! You'll try all the sweets you want!"
"Hello, My name is Tachibana Makoto! It's very nice to meet you!" A boy with brunette hair and surprisingly warm green eyes says, a beaming smile that blinded the delinquent girl...
"Kirishima Natsuya, nice to meet you too, Makoto."
The girl stayed quiet, eyes fiercely glaring at the younger male before her...which made him question at her sudden glare. Seeing this, Natsuya suddenly nudges her hard on the side...he knew very well she was strong enough to maintain the pain. After all, to Mitsuru, that nudge felt as light as a feather. She was starting to regret accepting Natsuya's offer despite the provoking sweets...
"Kurosaki Mitsuru, nice to meet you." The girl bluntly stated, looking away from the younger student...mostly since he was extremely tall...not really he was only 1 or 2 cm taller...
'Damn...he's hella tall for a first-year...dammit...!'
"Nice to meet you, Kirishima, Kurosaki!" He respectfully bowed down to them. Mitsuru on the other hand, smirks in pride. She was the type to enjoy those who bow before her...maybe Natsuya's offer wasn't soo bad...?
"So, you would like to see Haru?" Makoto began as we walked the next door classroom. Makoto then walked in front of the door, to call out his friend. Inpatient, Natsuya peaked inside to look at this 'Haru' guy.
Mitsuru scoffed, wanting to look inside as well but couldn't cause of her short height. She wondered who this 'Haru' guy was, since the Captain seem sooo interested in him...
"What is it Makoto?" Finally getting the chance to see him...all Mitsuru could do was to stand in pure shock...it was a boy with locks of raven like colors and gentle hues that illuminated the ocean's clear reflection...Never once has she seen such lovely hues like his...
"Well, the upperclassmen wanted to..." Makoto trailed off to look over at Natsuya and Mitsuru.
"Hey! You're Nanase Haruka from Iwatobi SC, aren't you? Please join our club!" Natsuya says out of nowhere, catching the blue eye boy.
Haruka then eyed his friend for an explanation.
"They've been saying this the whole time...!" Makoto panicked, sending his friend an awkward smile. Haruka didn't seem to buy it...
"I'm Kirishima Natsuya. I'm the captain of the school's swim team! We've come to recruit you for our club!" Natsuya says, before nudging the girl next to him.
"Help me out here!" Natsuya whispered at her. She sent him a glare before sighing, she looked back at Haruka and approached him.
Suddenly, she grasps the collar of his dress shirt, pulling the blue eyed boy closer to her face to show intimidation...
"The name's Kurosaki Mitsuru, brat. I consider you to join our fucking club, or you'll have to suffer some consequences...Join or else... " The Banchō hissed at the boy, sending him a glare. Haruka could only stand there with slight fright lingering in his eyes.
" K-K-Kurosaki?!" Makoto panicked, as he tried to get the upperclassman away from his dear friend. What if she hurts him?!
"Mitsuru! What the hell are you doing?! You're suppose to ask them kindly not use vulgar language!" Natsuya yells, bonking Mitsuru's head hard. She yelps in pain, holding her head as she growls at Natsuya.
"Ow! What the fuck?! I'm a delinquent! What?! Did you expect me to bow down and ask kindly? No! I'm a delinquent! DELINQUENT!" Mitsuru yelled back, irritated. This time, Natsuya really hit her hard...
"That doesn't mean anything!" Natsuya argued back, gripping the female's head, her brown locks tangled up into his fingers. They both stay in a heated glare, growling and pushing each other in irritation.
"Um..." Makoto interrupted, making both of the said duo to stop what they're doing to face the young student. At this point, everyone was staring at the two upperclassmen with awkward expressions. Natsuya quickly fixed his composure and cleared his throat. On the other hand, Mitsuru just clicked her tongue.
"Anyway, are you interested in joining our club? There aren't many first-years who want to join us. We're begging you!" Natsuya continued on. Mitsuru scoffed in irritation.
"What should we do?" Makoto faced his friend, Haruka only seemed to be lost in thought...
Suddenly, a new voice interrupts the group..
"School clubs are just for playing around." A voice says making the group turn to face the newcomer, it was Natsuya's little brother...
Somehow...the boy's comment agitated the Banchō...
"Huh? Mind repeating that brat?" Mitsuru says pushing the group aside to come closer to face the new kid. Coming closer, she saw how short the kid was, perhaps around 3cm shorter than her...
"What? I'm right." The kid says, making the Banchō irk in annoyance.
"You fucker..." Mitsuru hissed back, grabbing the boy's collar and lifting him up. Despite her intimidating aura, the boy was not faced..
Mitsuru slowly lifted her fist up but a voice stopped her from doing so.
" Mitsuru...release him now," Natsuya demanded, his tone dark yet smooth..
The girl scoffed before letting go of the boy's collar in a not so gently way...still glaring at him...
"I'll get you back before you even know it..." She warned him before walking back where Natsuya was. She scoffs when Natsuya sends her a glare of his...but she did nothing of response...
There was a long awkward silence until:
"Well, you two think about joining the club, see ya!" Natsuya declares, suddenly dragging the Banchō from her collar.
" O-OI! WHAT THE FUCK DO THINK YOU'RE DOING?! LET ME GO YOU PIECE OF SHIT! AGGHHH!"
" Eh!? Wai-!" Makoto exclaims trying to stop the two upperclassmen but they quickly left, Natsuya dragging Mitsuru on the floor. He watches as Mitsuru struggles in Natsuya's hold...it was indeed an amusing display of the upperclassmen showed...
"What should we do Haru? They said they don't have any members to recruit..." Makoto mumbled in sadness, tinking about Natsuya's offer...it wouldn't hurt to join...
"Your so trusting, you know.." Haru comments back, heading inside the classroom to meet face to face with Natsuya's little brother; Ikuya Kirishima...
"There is no point in joining..."
"Natsuya..." Mitsuru calls out to the male, whom walked in front of her.
"Yeah?" Natsuya responds looking back to face the female, he found her frowning face quite adorable if you ask him.
"How can you forget to give them the swimming club handouts when you said so yourself you'll be gathering new members...?" The Banchō mumbles in irritation as she tries to catch up with his speed.
"Relax! Everyone makes mistakes!" Natsuya responds whilst looking over from his shoulder, sending his delinquent buddy a close-eye smile.
She continues to frown, giving the male a displeased look...he indeed was too easy going...
As they finally arrived at their destination...but...they seemed to have arrive at the wrong time.
"Fine, If you're that insistent, then I'll join the swimming club and see if it is just playing around!"
Both of the upperclassmen kept quiet, Natsuya observing his little brother in thought as he said those words. Mitsuru took note of this.
"Ah, sorry!" Natsuya broke from his thoughts and came inside the classroom for both him and the Banchō to pass down the handouts.
"All of us here are joining the club, except for Kisumi!" An energetic red-haired boy exclaims from nowhere.
The Banchō watched on the sidelines observing Natsuya's little brother, who seemed to gaze away from his brother.
"Here." The red eye female walked in front of the said boy, shoving the handout to his hands.
"Don't give out halfway, little brat." The Banchou teased, earning herself a glare from the boy.
"I know that!" He exclaims angrily looking away with a blush covering his face as he glanced back at the Banchō, admiring her beauty.
"Well then, see ya at the
beginning of the golden week at the pool!" Natsuya finally says before once again dragging the girl from her collar.
"H-HEY! LET ME GO YOU FUCKING BASTARD!"
