A/N: Okay guys I'm going to tell the truth here I have never seen the show, nor will I ever, I am making it a personal life goal to never watch it, I just liked the character Kotonoha, and think she deserves better. Also don't worry I'm not just going in blind; I do my research when it comes to my stories.
*YAAAAAAAAAWN*
"Hibiki-kun it's the middle of the day, how are you tired? I know for a fact you go to bed early." I look at my Violet haired friend I've had since pre-school.
"Yes but you also know that I do that to get up early to go to work before school." I say resting my head on my arm like it where a pillow.
"That's no excuse you should be more awake then." I smirk slightly as she complains knowing she won't talk about my grades or anything. "Anyway don't sleep too much; I have to go to P.E." She waved and I waved back without looking but knew she saw.
Since I was ten I practically raised myself, my parents died in a car crash. I had lived with Kotonoha and her family until I turned twelve when it was discovered and to myself I was a genius. I had taken online collage courses and classes finishing them quickly and gaining several degrees by the time I was thirteen. I requested that everyone and the collages keep this secret. I did so with the collages, yes plural, I would give them a couple ideas I had if they kept quiet and could pass them off as their own. I excuse to Kotonoha and her mother was that I wanted to continue in normal school was for social skills. It was partially true, I mean I was still just a kid but it was mostly because I didn't want to leave Kotonoha all alone. She's my best friend and the girl I am truly in love with.
I never expressed those feeling, thinking I'll tell her one day. Unfortunately that one day never came because she had gotten a boyfriend. Some guy name Makoto, he seemed decent enough and like he would treat her well.
The only main thing that bothered me about him was he was probably the most clueless dumbasses I had ever met. I mean I may be exaggerating a bit but there are times I feel just that, but she seemed to be a happy when she was with him so I just but my feeling aside. I was happy enough to just be there as her friend and was there for her.
I had become okay friends with Sekai, a girl that was the one to actually set up Makoto and Kotonoha. At one point Kotonoha had suggested that maybe we try dating, both our responses were the same. We had both looked at each other and then looked away with nervous smiles of feeling that could only be described in the phrase of 'No way in hell'. We were mutual in this feeling, and were friends because of it.
Though lately I've become worried about Kotonoha, she's said that she and Makoto were slowly become more serious. She assured me they haven't done anything more than kissed, but she's also said that recently Makoto has become more and more distant. I wondered this myself, but I was never able to hang out with them at lunch a lot since I'd often have work.
I was worried about her, but I often reinsured her best I could, thinking of the most logical possibilities. Some such as stress from studying, not getting enough sleep, or had a lot on his mind, I had to really stretch with that last one. I did have other theories but I pushed them aside feeling I trusted Makoto enough.
I was finishing up what I was doing when my work when I got a text. I pulled out my phone and read it seeing it was Kotonoha.
-* Hey, I need your help getting some stuff, mind helping me *-
I replied.
-* Yeah sure, just come by my work, how far are you? *- I stood up about to take a step.
"About two feet" I slipped falling onto my back and looked up seeing Kotonoha's looking down at me with a smile. "How can someone so smart be so easily snuck up on?"
"I don't know, maybe you're a ninja Kotono-chan." I smirked up at her and she smiled as she helped me to my feet. "So what do you need help with?"
"I need to buy some clothes and ingredients for a date with Makoto-kun." I raised a eyebrow at this.
"Why don't your ask Sekai-san? Isn't she normally the one who helps you out with this?" Her smile lessened but was still there.
"I did but she said she was busy" I looked at my watch and saw it was almost eight-thirty pm, I wasn't going to refuse but I really do want her to be out there by herself.
"Alright, I'm going to go change and then we can go okay." She smiled and it made my heart melt. I loved that smile so much, and I felt so thankful I was able to see it.
"Three hours, how did three hours go by from you just trying on clothes?" I looked at her as I carried the groceries.
"It's much more complicated when it comes to girls, and I didn't see you complaining during." My face blushed as she smirked and poked me; I admit I enjoyed seeing her in the different outfits that made her seem to get even more attractive than she already was. I just didn't realize how much time had gone by.
"W-whatever, come on we should head to the train station soon." I looked at saw that she wasn't standing next to me. I looked back and saw she had stopped and was staring down an alley. I walked over quickly as I saw her expression, it was distraught and shocked. "Kotono-chan what's wro-"I stopped as I looked down the alleyway and my eyes widened at what I saw.
It was Makoto and Sekai Kissing; they were holding each other, groping each other and tugging at their clothes. My hands began to shake as I clenched my fist so tightly, my teeth gritted against each other.
"You…BASTARD!" I yelled as I saw them both jump slightly and look over at us their eyes widening in shock. I turned to Kotonoha and saw that there were tears streaming down her face. She took a step back and ran.
"KOTONOHA!" Makoto said starting to run after her before I punched him square in the face breaking his nose. He looked up at me from the ground as I gave him a glare filled with pure rage.
"Stay the fuck away from her." I say before turning, giving Sekai a look of disgust and running after Kotonoha.
She kept on running not stopping for anything; I was only able to keep her in sight as I ran after her. I called out to her trying to get her to stop but she wouldn't, she ran out to the center of the bridge and stopped. I ran faster taking this the chance to catch up, when I then saw her start climbing on to the ledge.
I ran as fast as I could desperately, and I got to her wrapping my arms around her waist and pulling her back onto the bridge. She thrashed around swinging her arms and legs hitting me yelling and crying for me to let go of her. I didn't and I wouldn't I just held on to her as tight as I could without hurting her.
She stopped thrashing as she kept lightly pounding her fists against my chest crying harder into my chest as I just held her.
"Why would you try and do something so stupid?" I say holding her tighter.
"I-I d-don't…know…I-I" She said in between sobs.
"Don't you ever do it again, you hear?" She nodded as I picked her up and carried her on my back, her arms wrapped around my neck, still sobbing.
I carried her the whole way till we stood in front of her house. I start walking to the front door when I feel Kotonoha grips tighten on my shoulder.
"Please…I don't want to…Makoto might come here." I pat her head hearing the pleading in her voice.
"Alright, you can stay with me until you feel you can go home." I then make my way home, feeling like crap that Kotonoha had to experience something like this. I was going to do all I could to help her, and hopefully see that smile again.
A/N:Okay guys tell me what you think of this first part.
