NOTE: Just a reminder: In this fic, there is NO calamity, no deaths, no dark settings, just plain school life of one Naoya Teshigawara.
It was just a simple day in my life as a student of Class 3-3 of Yomi North school.
Wait, you don't know my name?! What the hell? I'm the most popular boy in this school and you don't know me!?
Ah, well. Guess that's not helping...
Right, my name is Naoya Teshigawara, and I'm awesome.
Well, not really...that's probably something I thought up for myself.
The reason for this? Well, I'm always the funny guy in the class.
People liked me because I'm funny. My antics usually got me in trouble with the teachers, but at least it can make my friends smile.
Yet nowadays, almost nothing makes me smile...
It's five months, five freaking months! And not even a bloody thing happened here!
This place is so damn boring.
Yeah, welcome to Yomiyama North Middle School, they said. You'll get along here just fine, they said.
Then why the hell do I feel like I'm the only one who shouldn't be here!?
I mean, yes, I do have a lot of friends here, and my knowledge is just enough to barely go through the year without failing every test I take.
But still, it's so boring here!
Why can't an energetic school life like those in the animes can happened to me for once? Is it really too much to ask for a story where I could pilot a humongous mecha, saving the world from starfish aliens, something like that? Maybe one of my classmates could be a sleeper agent from Mars, assigned to observe humanity. Heck, even a survival horror story will do it for me! I'm not really a fan of it, but a story about a restless ghost that stalks my classmates and killing us one by one will surely spice things up around here...
But not here. If there's a place to call the most boring place on Earth, this place will surely gets in my top ten list.
Yuuya told me that I'm looking a bit stressed lately, and suggested that I go find something to do to lighten up. Well, there's nothing here than can lighten me up at all!
I already gave up at trying sports, that bastard Kazami always beat me in anything we've played. Heh, he's a good friend and all, but can't he really at least going a little easy on me?
Studying? Off the tables.
Reading? As long as it's mangas, I'll read it, but it gets pretty boring after a while.
What else could I do? Find a girlfriend? Already did that, and failed miserably at doing so, if I might add.
Want me to explain? Ah, damn it. Not again.
Right, right.
So, there was this red-headed twintail girl, Izumi Akazawa. One could simply say she's the hottest girl in the school right now.I had a crush on her ever since I arrived here.
It took some time, and a lot of (mostly failed) efforts, but she finally agreed to went out with me. A few dates in, and I felt like I'm the happiest guy in the world.
Of course, that's when things get downhill between us.
It was a month ago...
"Damn it, Naoya! Will you stop acting like an idiot and listen to me for a minute!?" Izumi shouted up.
"Of course! Anything for you, my princess!"
She blushed a bit, but then went back to her angry face.
"Stop calling me that! I need to make something clear!" She yelled.
I've never seen her making such serious face before.
"I..." She hesitated. I had a bad feeling about this.
"What's wrong, Izumi-chan?"
"I...maybe...we should just be friends..."
...What?
What does she mean by that?!
"Don't get me wrong! You're...kind to me...Naoya...but we're just not meant for each other..." Her voice saddened.
I let out a nervous laugh, she must be joking, right?
"C-C'mon, Izumi-chan! Don't joke to me like that! You're...! You're...not joking?" I hesitated. Izumi is giving a death-glare.
"I'm not joking, Naoya..."
S-seriously?
"But why!? What did I do wrong? I'm...!" I tried to figure out words, but I was just too shocked to say anything.
"You're not doing anything wrong, Naoya. It's just me that's wrong...I...I should've thought this through before I decided to went out with you..." She said.
"W-what do you mean?"
"I'm...damn it!" She took a deep breath. "You're just not the type of guy I liked, Naoya...I'm terribly sorry..."
I saw a single tear ran down her face.
"You're...you're a good person...but...I'm...damn it! Damn it! I'm sorry!"
And then she just ran away, her face covered with her hands.
"Wa-wait!" I tried to chase her, but was interrupted at the worst possible moment.
"Hey! Naoya! Kubodera-sensei asked me to find you! He want you to explain about that needle on his seat inside the teacher office!" Yuuya shouted up from behind me.
I was just doing that to humor Kazami, why did it have to bite me in the ass at this moment!?
"He threatened that you'll get a detention if you don't go find him now!" Yuuya added.
Damn it all.
Me and Izumi haven't talk to each other a whole week after that.
And when we finally did, we never look at each other in the eyes again.
It's not that I blame her for it, really. She's one of the Student Council member, and I'm just a lowly delinquent who happens to have a crush on her. It's like trying to mash Yin and Yang together. It's not gonna work out. Even if it did, it probably won't last long.
She has her job, and she took it seriously. I'm just gonna be a hindrance to her.
My antics usually resulting in her having to clean up after my problems, as well as getting her scolded for being around with a guy like me.
I hate to admit it, but she deserved someone better than me.
Someone who can take care of her, and not getting in her way when it comes to her duty.
It's just like one of those school life dramas I've seen in TV. Just, why the heck it has to happen to me? Of all people?!
Damn it, so much for being the funny guy of the class...
"Teshy, Teshy! You're looking so down today!"
Aya picked me on my cheek.
"Need someone to cheer you up?" She asked with a cheerful voice.
"Go away...I'll take a nap..."
Aya pouted. "Boo, don't ignore me like that!"
Kouichi walked up next to me.
"Whoa, you just looked like you're just coming back from hell. What's wrong?" He asked.
"Nah, just. You know what? Leave me alone!" I shouted, unintentionally startled Aya.
"Wha? What's wrong with you, dummy!" She stick out her tongue, before running away.
Good riddance.
"Hey, don't be so angry, man. What's the matter?" Kouichi continued asking.
"I said go away..."
"Maybe we can talk about it later..."
"GO AWAY!"
Silence.
Kouichi sighed, before walking away from me.
I slammed my head into the desk.
What a way to start a day...
The bell rang, signaling the beginning of the first class.
Kubodera-sensei walked into the class, along with Ms. Mikami, the homeroom teacher.
"Good morning, class!"
"Good morning, sensei."
Heh...so boring to do this everyday...
"I have an announcement to make. From today forward, there will be a new student in our class. I'm sure some of you might heard of her already, but let's leave her a chance to introduce herself..."
What? New student? Wow, this is a surprise.
It was just only a while after the newest student joined our class, who is Kouichi, by the way.
A young girl then walked into the class.
She has a black, somewhat puffy hair. She's also probably a few centimeters shorter than me. Well, can't really tell that, though. She's standing in front of the class while the rest of us are in our chairs.
"Whoa! She's cute!" I heard Yuuya whispered.
Well, she's rather pretty, if I say so myself.
Wait...the hell am I thinking?
"Hi everyone! My name is Afira Briade! I'm an exchange student from Indonesia. Nice to meet you all!" She introduced herself, before smiling.
Wow, that's actually a pretty beautiful smile.
"Alright, we've known each other now. Afira-san, please take your seat near Naoya-kun's." Kubodera-sensei pointed at the empty seat on my left.
Wha!?
As she walked to her table, Afira noticed that I'm staring at her.
She gave me another smile. I could do nothing except smiling back...
"Nice to meet you, Naoya-kun!" She said before sitting down at her seat.
This is going to be a hell of a day...
