Jealousy Thing

"How fucking dare you steal my fucking octopus sausage motherfucker."

"Woah there, that's a lot of fucks you're giving me China, don't you think you're being too greedy?" She replied by chucking a nearby desk at him, which he promptly dodged, leading to a certain teacher's desk being demolished. The girl who had her precious octopus sausage stolen away from her, Kagura, then dealt a swift kick to his face; Okita Sougo, being the so-called sausage thief. He dodged again and shot a fist to her face, which only resulted in her dodging and a barrage of attacks being inflicted onto each other. All of the students ran out of the classroom as fast as they could, leaving the two to tear down the classroom by themselves.

"You dog shit eating, turd licking, no-good SAUSAGE THIEF!" A certain teacher heard from his classroom as he proceeded to walk towards it.

"You sure talk a lot of shit China, are you constipated?! You should be grateful I ate the damn thing, don't you think?!" Another voice yelled in response. The teacher sprinted, with only the sound of his now fast-paced footsteps keeping him calm. Crashes and bangs were heard from the classroom again, along with some 'ORA!'s and 'HI-YAH!'s with them. The teacher, Gintoki-sensei was met with quite a site when he entered his classroom. Every single desk was now toppled to the ground, some having their legs broken into oblivion along with his own table, while his chalkboard had a colorful arrangement of cracks in them, ranging in both size and shape. The two culprits were on the ground, taking turns flipping and pinning each other to the ground with many minor injuries all over them.

"Fucking brat!"

"Again with the fucking China, I can take a hint you know." He said with difficulty, struggling under her. She roared, and was about to land another punch on his stupid face, but was stopped by a firm hand grabbing it before the final blow. With her hand clutching his collar and his fisting hers, they looked up to meet the furious, blazing eyes of Gintoki. He sighed.

"You damn idiots. Why the hell did you wreck my classroom?" He asked calmly, although the veins and deep scowl marred onto his face said otherwise. Both kept quiet for a moment.

"Well?" He questioned, his eyes showing bloody murder in their futures.

"This pig assaulted me for sausage."

"Don't steal my damn food you asshole." She hissed and turned towards their teacher. "Gin-chan, he started it by eating my food!" She huffed. Gintoki stayed quiet for a while, letting the deadly silence seep in.

"You damn brats."

"That's what I said!" Chimed in Kagura.

"No. I meant the both of you." He responded scathingly, carrying Kagura off of Sougo by the collar. She surprisingly didn't protest and pouted, turning her head to the windows. Sougo looked to see his teacher staring both him and China down and clicked his tongue. "That's it. Both of you will clean this room until it's back in shape, and then receive two months of detention everyday after school." Both of the troublemakers eyes widened in horror.

"WHAT?!" They shouted in protest.

"Gin-chan you can't be serio-"

"I am." Came the firm response.

"I will not stay in the same room as this pig-"

"Yes you will."

"BUT-" The two responded together.

"No." The teacher cut off. "Do I make myself clear?" The two were about to give a rebuttal but saw the full, radiating darkness clear on their very, very furious teacher's face, which promptly shut them up. No one ever wants to face the wrath of a truly angered Gintoki-sensei.

"Yes Gin-chan/Gintoki-sensei." They quietly obeyed. Gintoki nodded in response and proceeded to carry Kagura on his shoulder, which did not go unnoticed by Sougo. As Gintoki walked away with Kagura on his shoulder, Sougo stepped forward to place a hand on his other shoulder.

"Excuse me Gintoki-sensei, shouldn't we both go to the nurse's office to patch up our injures?" He asked with indignation. Gintoki faced him.

"You go to the nurse's office. It's almost time for school to end anyway, so I'll be taking this one," He pointed at Kagura. "-home to patch her up." Kagura just gave up and went as limp as a rag doll on his shoulder, while he still kept ahold of her waist so she wouldn't fall. Sougo's eyebrows knitted together in irritation, though he could not understand why. It was a known fact that Kagura stayed with Gintoki-sensei while her real dad was overseas working, along with her brother. Apparently her whole family was going to move but she begged to stay, leading to her taking shelter with her dad's close colleague, Gintoki-sensei. And even trying to engrave this fact in his mind could not distract him from the amount of annoyance and anger he felt when he saw her getting along with him, smiling at him, hugging his arm shouting, "Gin-chan! Gin-chan!" with that adoring tone in her voice. Must be her disgusting voice irritating him. Must be.

"Hurry up Gin-chan! I don't want to be in a room with this chihuahua too long! He might shit on me!" Kagura shouted, still apparently full of life.

"Again with the shit China? I really think you should get checked. Maybe you should go to the nurse's office after all." He shrugged his shoulders haughtily at her with a smirk gracing his features.

"What did you say you-?!" Before she could retaliate they both received a hard punch to their heads, effectively earning a groan of pain from the two.

"Stop fighting already, aren't you injured? Kagura, stop provoking the boy and Souichiro-"

"It's Sougo sir."

"-stop the whole jealousy thing today. I'm too tired to deal with it." Sougo's eyes widened at the accusation while Kagura's eyebrows furrowed slightly in confusion.

"I am not jealou-"

"Okay, we'll be going now, see you later Sofa-kun." Gintoki interrupted before he could defend himself. As Gintoki sped out of the room, a female's voice could be heard screaming to put her down. Sougo just stood there in the decimated classroom, shocked.

"Jealous? Who? Me? Of the China girl? There's no way I'd be jealous of anything she has. Then what did he mean by 'jealousy thing'?" He contemplated for a bit. "It's a thing? Like, I do this so called 'jealousy thing' often? Enough for him to notice?"

Sougo walked around the destroyed desks and and made his way to his own, which was now broken to the point of no return, grabbed his school bag, and spent the rest of the time walking home thinking of Gintoki-sensei's words. There's no way.

Then he thought of China girl, the so-called object of his jealousy. Her disgustingly inhuman eating habits. Her vulgularity when speaking to anyone out of that disgusting, not-at-all-attractive mouth. Her idiotic way of mispronouncing words in english. Her lack of femininity in all categories involved. How angry she gets when he bothers her. There's no way.

But then he thought of the way her ponytails flowed in the wind on a spring day. The way she could rival his strength, and her unabashed, no shits to give attitude to anyone, no matter who it was. The bright grin she had on her face when they fought, the way her eyes shone whenever she saw anything cute, and how she understood him as he did her in those dark moments in their life, like when his sister died or when her brother threw her aside again. He smiled fondly at the memories.

He thought of Gintoki-sensei again and frowned. The thoughts led him to think about how she grew up so much in only the span of two years and he wasn't the only one to notice. She changed her hairstyle to those pink hairbun covers, letting some of her hair loose in ponytails. Who wouldn't notice the way a certain area around her chest grew, along with growing taller and having curves now? He certainly did. And he was right. Although many boys knew the vermilion girl's violent reputation, they couldn't help but ogle her in the halls, though not to her knowledge lest they be slaughtered on the spot by the woman herself. He scowled deeply at his own thoughts, getting angry again all by himself. There's no way I could be jealous.

No way… right?
