Note:First of all, since it's 11/11, I'd like to wish a happy birthday to Furuichi Takayuki! (ʃƪ ˘ ³˘)
To celebrate his birthday I'd like to start a story about him and... an OC, Mob character!
You know... just like when you start a dating sim an the character is nameless and "faceless"? That's the kind of thought I had in mind. ^^;
This one is the Furuichi x Boy version. There's also a girl version, called Mobichi&Mob-chan.
Warning:Quite colorful language and a bit of OOCness.
Disclaimer:For the characters' joy, I don't own them or this manga/anime. The original story belongs to Tamura Ryuuhei.
Preview
The sun shined high as white and soft clouds floated peacefully in the sky.
Lunch. The brightest moment of the day, and also the moment all students were waiting for.
Even at Ishiyama High, a school full of delinquents who did whatever they wanted uncaring of the rules, all the students were happy that lunch-time came around.
And of course Furuichi and Oga were no exception, even more so when they just finished having their lunch and baby Beel was happily squealing on top of Oga's head.
The two boy, plus the child, were casually chatting as they were walking in the corridors.
They were coming down from the rooftop, headed to their classroom.
Even when they were eating earlier, some foolish delinquents would pop up trying to challenge Oga, but of course the Mad Dog took care of them in a blink of an eye. And this of course, was also part of their daily routine.
As they chatted, they were walking down one of the many stairway.
Oga walked in front of Furuichi, while the silver-haired boy was just a few steps behind him. Just when Oga turned the corned at the landing, as they chatted, Furuichi carelessly put one of his feet down wrong, and his foot slip.
"Waa-!"
He felt like he was falling forward and that he was about to collide very painfully with the floor.
He instinctively put his hands forward, but of course that couldn't possibly stop the fall.
He shut his eyes tightly as he prepared for the impact.
He was already imagining his always preciously cured face all uglily swelled.
And when he thought he was done for, and arm was wrapped around him and prevented him from falling face-down.
"Wo~ You really saved me!"
With his eyes still shut, his feet barely touching the floor and as he held tightly onto that arm, the boy said that with a relieved sigh.
As he was about to get on his own two feet, he looked down at the arm that was wrapped around his torso.
«…Huh!?»
At first he thought that it was Oga, but something was off. Sure, that arm was a sting a muscular one, but it was just lightly thinner and of a lighter color.
When he was finally standing up like a properly, his eyes traveled from his hands that were still wrapped around that arm, to the shoulder, neck and finally…the face.
His face, together with his eyes, slowly turned, until Furuichi did a complete 180-degree turn.
That was no Oga Tatsumi.
It was a boy with messy golden hair.
He was quite tall, but not the tallest he's seen. He was muscular but not too much so. Not exactly what you'd call handsome but definitely not ugly either.
He wasn't the boy you could see everywhere, but here at Ishiyama he was just one of the many.
Everything about him screamed… average.
Furuichi continued to speechlessly stare at him.
He slowly opened him mouth, his word deep and warm… just like the glowing fire.
"…My arm."
"Arm?" repeated confused Furuichi. And only when he looked at where his own hands were, did he realize he was still holding his arm.
"O-oh! Sorry!" the boy quickly let go of his grip, as if he was holding into something burning hot.
"T-thanks for helping me out. I'd be done for without you."
Furuichi tried to smile and be as friendly as possible, but his smile came out a bit wry.
Why? Because he already knew that despite his apology and thanks, the boy would react harshly towards him.
After all it was a school full of delinquents who were more than ready to pick a fight at any moment, and surely this boy was no exception.
«Is he going to ignore me? Stare at me like I'm a bug? Trash!? Or maybe beat me up right away!?»
Furuichi started to silently panic as cold sweat was covering his face.
He knew what was coming but that didn't mean that expecting a bow will make it less painful.
He couldn't bring himself to look at him directly in the eyes.
So when he saw those thin lips opening, his hands unconsciously clenched on their own.
"It's fine. Watch your step next time."
His words warm and her voice deep.
After he spoke, he gave a small nod to the astonished Furuichi, before walking up the stair and disappearing from his sight.
Furuichi stood there speechless, looking at the wall behind which the boy disappeared.
"Oi Furuichi!"
Shaken back by Oga's loud shout, Furuichi snapped out of it.
He looked at his friend who was already far down, who now was looking up at him, popping his head from behind a wall.
"Hey, what's wrong?" enquired the Mad Dog as he saw the strange face his friend was making.
"N-no… it's nothing." replied Furuichi was he proceeded to join his friend.
As they sat in class, Furuichi couldn't help but think back at what just happened.
«That guy… I've never seen him before. He's not an underling of one of the Tohonshiki, so I don't know him name. But still… we're in the same school and all, I should have at lest seen him once…»
Furuichi continued to ponder about it without finding an answer.
He, the mob among the main characters, couldn't stop thinking about that absolutely-normal and the-very-incarnation-of-average… nameless boy.
