It was late at night and most students had gone home, but Morishige and Mayu were alone together in the drama rooms. Mayu sat atop a pile of chairs trying to talk to Morishige in-between fits of giggles. Morishige walked around in a knight costume that the drama club had 'borrowed' from the history club. When he was around Mayu he knew that he didn`t have to act as serious as around other people. He adored her and felt comfortable messing around with her. Mayu felt the same way. She loved that Morishige opened up to her. He was normally so stoic and serious when he was with other people, but with her he was his 'Shig'.
"Oh Mayu! Oh Mayu! Let down your hair!" he said in-between laughs. Mayu giggled. Despite being so stern in class when he was with her he could be really silly. She saw a wig and leant over to grab it. The tower of chairs wobbled precariously. Morishige`s face straightened for a moment.
"Be careful." He said. Mayu smiled internally. He could be really caring sometimes.
"Here! Catch!" she said, throwing the wig at him. "Climb my hair and rescue your princess." She winked at him. Morishige blushed. He caught the wig in hands and looked at it in fake shock-horror.
"Oh my God! Your hair! You ripped out your hair! I can`t believe you to tore out your hair!" he shouted pretending to faint. Mayu laughed even harder. Morishige held his nose with one hand and held the wig away from his body with the other.
"Here, have this bloody thing back." He said, throwing the wig back to her. It hit her in the face and as she moved to try and catch it the tower of chairs wobbled. One of the chairs at the bottom of the pile gave way and the whole tower came tumbling down. Mayu hit the floor with a loud, dull 'thud'. She didn't move. Morishige was in shock. She wasn't moving. He had to do something, something now. He ran towards her and fell to his knees next to her.
"Mayu! Mayu, are you okay?!" he asked in a panic stricken voice. He rolled her over to see her crying face. She was crying with laughter.
"Mayu….?" He asked in confusion. She rolled over onto her back and lay on his lap.
"You should`ve heard yourself," she said still laughing. She started doing an imitation of him. "Oh no Mayu! Are you okay?" Morishige, embarrassed, starred of at the wall. Not giving her the satisfaction of eye contact.
"Don`t know what you're talking about." He muttered.
"Awww. You`re so cute when your mad." She said. He blushed.
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"Yes." She said, leaning up and kissing him on the nose. He blushed harder.
"Come on," he said, beginning to stand up and gently helping her to her feet.
"We should tidy up these chairs and get home."
"Alright," she said, standing up and smiling. "Oh, but how about we stop at the crepe stand on our way home? Doesn't that sound yummy?" He nodded.
"It sure does." He replied.
