AiXSyo – High school AU

A/N -

I made Ai human! A robot doesn't even need school, right? – I also based this around American high schools since British ones are poop! (Like come on, who the hell needs a uniform?! I'm so sad I have to go back soon…) So this is just what I've got from other fanfics, American films and American TV shows! Sorry and no offence to anyone if I'm wrong… I made some changes to their ages too, Reiji, Ranmaru and Camus are only a year older than all of STARISH (Which I'd say was around 16-17 average maybe?) And Ai's still 15! I'm not sure what year groups, or grades in this case, they belong too…


"Chibi." A cyan haired boy said suddenly to the smaller blonde next to him.

"Really?! Do you need to say that every time?! I'm. Not. Small!" Syo shouted back to his senpai, Ai. Ai was a year younger than Syo yet one year higher in school because of his 'genius.'. The only reason they began to speak is because of their friends, their lockers and their houses being close by.

"I'm taller than you~"

"I'm older!"

"I'm still your senpai."

"Shut up!" Syo shouted, earning looks from the other pupils round them. "Lets just get to the club room, the less time I have to spend with you, the better!" Syo grabbed Ai's wrist and pulled him into a small room filled with 9 other boys and a girl.

"Syo-kun! Ai-senpai!" A tall red head shouted and Syo let go of Ai's wrist.

"Reiji-senpai, if I have to see him any longer, I'll end up killing him!" he shoved Ai towards Reiji and went to stand with the others from his year.

"What happened, o'chibi-chan~? Lover's quarrel?" Ren teased and Syo's face flushed red.

"He's just being a dick! We aren't lovers! And will everyone stop calling me short!" Syo snapped back.

"Now, now. Calm down Syo-chan..!" Reiji said suddenly, calming Syo down slightly. "Ai-Ai, what actually happened?" He laughed.

"Nothing. Syo over reacted, as usual." Ai mumbled his face slightly red from Ren's comment.

"Okay! Well, now were all over that, lets get to practicing!" Reiji shouted and the 11 boys did their club activities.

"I hate how you live so close to me." Syo mumbled, red faced, to Ai who was walking next to him. After they walked down the street a little more Syo turned. "See ya tomorrow, Ai."

"Goodbye." Ai waved slightly and carried on walking down the street. Syo watched his back, his face still red. After sighing, he went into his house and straight upstairs to his room after greeting his parents. "Stupid Ai…" He mumbled and flopped onto his bed, pulling out his phone. "I feel like a stupid girl, what the hell is wrong with me..? All we do is argue but I can't help but like him… Baka Ai…" Syo spoke quietly out-loud to himself.

"Nii-chan!" Koaru ran into their shared room. "I'm home~!"

"Hi Koaru..." Syo mumbled.

"Are you okay Nii-chan? I heard you talking to yourself. Who's Ai? Some girl from your school?" He sat down next to Syo on Syo's bed.

"Something like that…" Syo blushed.

"You like her?!"

"Yeah…"

"That's so cute Nii-chan! Why don't you ask her out?!"

"Because he- she's… I don't know… H-She just doesn't like me." Syo put his head in his hands, hiding how red his face was.

"You never know Nii-chan!"

"H-She's always calling me short or chibi… Whenever he gets the chance he'll try to annoy me…"

"Nii-chan, you said he?"

"I meant she! She! I meant she!"

"Nii-chan, is Ai a boy?" Syo looked down in shame.

"Yeah…"

"That's okay!"

"I-It is..?"

"Yeah! You should still ask him out!"

"He definitely doesn't like me…"

"Wait, is Ai the one you're always with!? He lives just up the street?!"

"Y-Yeah…"

"Aww! You two are cute together! He totally likes you Nii-chan!"

"He has trouble showing his emotions so you can't be certain he does…"

"Nii-chan, he does! Why don't you just ask him and find out?!"

"He'll reject me. I know he will." Syo sighed and lay down on his bed.

"Just try, Nii-chan." Koaru giggled and left the room. Syo sat up and glanced at his phone, his finger hovering over Ai's number. 'I'll just ask him at school tomorrow! It'll be fine…" Syo thought to himself and tucked his phone back into the pocket of his jeans.

The next morning, Syo walked out of his front door, ready to walk to school. Usually, he walks to school alone and walks back with Ai but this morning, Ai was waiting at the end of the path for him. "W-W-What are you doing here?!" Syo stuttered, his face bright red.

"I set out slightly later this morning and thought that I should wait and walk with you. Is that not okay?" Ai replied.

"I-Its fine I just wasn't expecting you to be there!" Syo almost shouted. "Well, let's go." Syo mumbled and they both began to walk.

"Nii-chan!" Syo heard a familiar voice shout from behind him. "You forgot your bag!" Syo's face flushed bright red, why did he have to be stupidly forgetful the day Ai was with him?! Koaru ran up to Syo and handed him the bag.

"T-thanks Koaru."

"Is this Ai-san you were telling me about?!" Koaru stared at Ai's face a little before Ai glared back.

"Y-Yeah… We better go or we'll be late!"

"Yes. Nice to meet you, Koaru-san, is it?"

"Yep! Nice to meet you too, Ai-chan!" Koaru smiled at Ai and Ai smiled slightly in reply. "Bye bye Nii-chan!"

"Bye." Syo mumbled and they started to walk again. "Sorry about Koaru…"

"It's okay. You talk about me?" Ai smirked.

"N-No! Koaru wanted to know who you were! He saw you walking home with me! That's it!" Syo's face flushed bright red.

"You're lying, chibi~"

"S-Shut up! I aren't!"

"You wouldn't act like that unless you were. What's the truth-"Ai leant down slightly to Syo's ear "Syo-chan~" Syo panicked and pushed Ai away.

"G-G-Get off!" Syo almost shouted and Ai laughed slightly.

"Baka." He smiled and stole Syo's hat.

"H-Hey! Give that back!" Syo chased Ai down the street eventually catching him and wrapping his arms around the taller boy. They locked eyes and Syo couldn't look away, he felt himself slowly getting closer to his cyan haired senpai, eventually pressing his lips against the others. It didn't last long before Syo pulled away. "I-I shouldn't have done that… I-I'm sorry…" He ran to school leaving his hat and a very red faced Ai behind.

After school, later that day, Syo avoided his club and didn't walk home with Ai. After classes he ran straight home and threw himself on his bed. When Koaru entered the room, Syo didn't move.

"Nii-chan? What's up?"

"Ai…" Syo mumbled.

"What happened?"

"I… Kissed him…" Koaru smiled slightly.

"How cute! Why are you so sad if that happened?"

"I panicked… After it happened, I apologized and ran away. I haven't seen him since…" Koaru sighed.

"Oh, Nii-chan… Go talk to him."

"I can't… I'll just be rejected."

"He didn't reject you when you kissed him, right?"

"No…"

"Then he won't reject you now!"

"But he's at school still…"

"Wait until he's home! He has to walk this way so we'll see him!"

"Yeah…" Syo sighed. "He's still got my h-" Syo was interrupted by his Mother shouting him. He walked down the stairs to see Ai sitting in their front room. "W-Why are you here..?" Syo sighed.

"I came to give you this." Ai held out Syo hat and Syo took it. "And we ne-"

"We're going out!" Syo shouted, interrupting Ai. He dragged Ai out of the house and to a nearby park. "Sorry… We couldn't talk there and Koaru was in my room…"

"It's okay." The two sat in silence for a while before Ai broke it. "Why did you kiss me?" Syo's face flushed red.

"I-Isn't it obvious..?"

"Yes, I just want to hear you say it~" Ai teased whilst smiling.

"Urgh! Fine… I like you."

"I like you too, chibi."

"Stop calling me chibi!" Syo shouted before realizing what Ai had actually said. "W-Wait… You like me too?"

"Well there's no way I'd let you kiss me if I didn't."

"T-True…" Syo looked down. "S-So… Wanna go out..?"

"I've been waiting for you to ask~" Ai smiled "Is this weekend okay?"

"That's fine…" Syo sat in deep thought for a while.

"What's wrong?"

"I'm just thinking how I could cover it up… I'm not ready for my parents to know yet…"

"Just say I'm a friend, they'll believe it since I'm not a girl."

"Good point… Where do you wanna go anyway?"

"There's a concert this weekend. I planned to go with you but I couldn't ask. I probably would've gone with Reiji…" Ai's face flushed red slightly and Syo smiled at him.

"You couldn't ask me~?" Syo teased.

"Shut up. I was going to ask you to it just as friends yet I was convinced you didn't like me at all…"

"Baka. I'm just glad I hid it well enough!" Syo laughed

"I'm not sure if you hid it well enough from everybody else. I'm not the best with emotions therefore I was easy to fool."

"True…" They sat in the park for a while until Syo decided he should get back home. "Koaru will tease if I don't go home soon…"

"I might stay here a while."

"Okay then, I'll see you tomorrow." Syo smiled slightly.

"Goodbye." Ai mumbled as he suddenly stood up, connecting their lips. The kiss didn't last long before Ai pulled back. "I apologize. It just didn't feel real…" Syo smiled again.

"Baka." He tapped Ai on the head "See ya then~!"

"Goodbye." Ai smiled and sat back onto the bench, watching Syo walk away.

"You asked him out?!" Koaru shouted when Syo had told him what happened.

"Not so loud!" Syo shouted back. "But yeah… I did…" He smiled.

"Aww Nii-chan~! Introduce me properly! I want to meet him!"

"I'll bring him back here after our date…" Syo smiled to himself.

"Okay~"

The days passed quickly and it was the weekend. Syo panicked as he lay out different combinations of clothes onto his bed. 'Urgh! What should I wear?!' The thought to himself. 'I feel like such a girl…'

"What's wrong Nii-chan?" Koaru asked as he walked into their room.

"I don't know what to wear…"

"What about this one!" Koaru pointed to an outfit on the bed. It was a plain pink shirt, black jeans, a black jacket and a pink and black fedora.

"You really think it will be okay?"

"It'll be fine!" Koaru smiled. "I don't think he cares what you wear Nii-chan~" He laughed.

"I suppose…" Syo changed into the outfit and looked into his mirror, smiling happily. 'It really is okay.' He went downstairs to eat his breakfast.

"Why are you so dressed up for breakfast?" Syo's mother laughed.

"I-I'm going out today!" Syo laughed back. "I do have some kind of social life!"

"With who~ A date maybe~" His mother teased.

"No! Just Ai."

"A girl~? It really is a date!"

"Mum, Ai's a guy! He was here the other day!" His mother laughed.

"That was a boy!? He was so pretty!" She laughed again, leaving the room.

Around 3 hours later, the doorbell went off. Syo almost ran to the door to get there before his mother and Koaru. "I'm going now!" He shouted before opening the door. "H-Hey…" He greeted Ai, blushing slightly. Ai looked different to when he was at school, Syo thought. Usually, Ai wore baggy clothes with his hair half tied up but today, his hair was down and he wore a black shirt with black jeans and black jacket.

"Ready to go?" Ai asked, smiling.

"Yeah." Syo smiled back and shouted his goodbye's to his family, shutting the door as he left.

"Are you okay?" Ai asked, Syo looked nervous.

"I-I'm fine!" Syo almost shouted. "My mum thought you were a girl." He laughed.

"Do I look like a girl?"

"No!" Syo laughed again. "She said you were pretty!"

"I'm not sure whether that is a compliment or not?" Ai smiled.

"Me neither!" Syo laughed again. After a while of comfortable silence, Syo felt something touch his hand. He looked down to see Ai hand brush his own. His face flushed a deep red and he looked the other way quickly.

"Syo? What's wrong?" Ai asked, seeing Syo's face.

"N-N-Nothing..!"

"What is it?" Ai looked confused. "You've gone very red."

"I-It's nothing!" Ai looked down and saw how close their hands were; he grabbed Syo's hand, entwining their fingers together. This caused Syo's face to heat up even more.

"Was that what was wrong?" Ai smirked and Syo nodded slightly.

After a while, they had arrived at the park holding the festival. As they arrived just as it started, they were located around the back, although they didn't mind. They both enjoyed the music played and didn't let go of each other's hands throughout the show. A few hours later, it had begun to get dark and the show hadn't fully ended. By the time it had finished, it was around 7pm, and dark. The two began to walk home when it had finished. They soon reached Syo's house. "I-I had fun… Thanks for taking me…" Syo smiled.

"Its okay, Syo-chan~" Ai smiled. "I had fun too." Ai was about to lean in for a kiss when Syo's front door opened.

"Syo! Why don't you invite your friend in!?" His mother shouted from the door. Luckily, she didn't see how close the two boys were standing.

"You better come in; she won't stop until you do…" Ai smiled and nodded. They walked into Syo's house and Ai was greeted by Syo's overly excited mother.

"Ai-chan! Welcome~" She smiled. "I'm sure Syo told you, I'm sorry for thinking you were a girl!"

"It's alright, Nice to meet you Kurusu-san." Ai smiled.

"It's too late for Ai-chan to go home now, Syo! Why doesn't he stay over?!" Syo and Ai's faces both flushed pink and Koaru giggled from behind his mother.

"I apologize but I have no extra clothes. " Ai mumbled trying to get out of it.

"Nonsense!" You look around Koaru's size! You can borrow some of his!" Syo's face flushed redder.

"Y-your uncle will want you home, r-right?" Syo asked Ai.

"Yes." By the time they had finished, it was around 9pm and Syo's mother insisted that Ai stayed over, no matter how much they tried to get out of it.

"Are you okay, Syo?" Ai asked, his face red. They were now getting Ai a bed ready in Syo and Koaru's room.

"I can't believe she made you stay!" Syo's face was also red.

"It's okay, really. I've contacted my uncle." Ai smiled.

"O-Okay then…" Syo stood up and grabbed a pair of baggy shorts and a baggy shirt for Ai to sleep in. "H-Here… I don't think Koaru liked mum offering his clothes out so you can wear mine…" Syo's blush deepened.

"Okay…" Syo threw the clothes at Ai and glanced at the door, seeing that it was closed, he leant down and connected their lips. It lasted a while, not deepening any, before Ai pulled away and wrapped his arms around the smaller boy, smiling.

"M-Mum interrupted you earlier so…" Ai buried his face in Syo's hair and they stayed, hugging on Syo's bed. The door to the room suddenly opened and Koaru entered. When they noticed, they immediately pulled away from each other, both blushing furiously.

"K-Koaru! Knock…"

"It's my room too! You're lucky it wasn't mum, Nii-chan."

"Yeah…" Syo looked down. "We should be more careful, sorry…" Koaru laughed slightly.

"No need to apologize Nii-chan!" Koaru smiled. "Mum wanted to know if you got Ai's bed ready alright?"

"Yeah, its fine." Syo's blush had begun to ease. "I gave him my clothes to wear too so you don't have too."

"Okay! I'll go tell mum, careful~" Koaru winked and Syo's blush came back. He left the room, laughing at Syo's blushing face.

"I'd usually sleep earlier than this." Ai sighed and Syo smiled.

"Typical. I swear you always stick to schedules." He rolled his eyes and Ai's face returned to its usual emotionless image.

"I do. I sleep at 9 and wake at 5. Anything I do in-between is planned, that was until you messed things up, shorty." He tapped Syo on the head and Syo blushed again. They sat talking for a while before Koaru came back in, soon after this, they slept.

The next Monday morning, Syo was getting ready for school when there was a knock at his door. He went over and opened the door, slightly confused. As he opened the door, he spotted a head of cyan hair and blushed. "H-Hey, you don't usually walk in a morning?"

"I woke up slightly later and thought I would walk with you." His face flushed slightly.

"Okay? Wanna come in, I'm almost ready."

"Okay." Ai stepped into the house, realizing that no-one else was awake. "Doesn't Koaru go to school?"

"He left already; he goes to a medical school." Syo saddened slightly yet cheered up when Ai looked around the room before pressing their lips together. It didn't last long before Syo started laughing.

"Let's go now..!" Syo mumbled. "I love how worried you looked!" Syo almost shouted whilst laughing.

"Shut up shorty."

"Stop calling me short!" They left the house and Syo ran ahead slightly, laughing. Ai smiled and chased after him, grabbing his hand so he couldn't run away. Syo's face flushed bright red and he smiled to himself slightly before connecting their lips again. Syo had to try and stop himself from taking the kiss further, considering their location, and had to pull away. They continued walking before Syo suddenly stopped. "I just realized…"

"What?"

"W-We're gonna have to tell everyone…"

"We do."

"What do we do..? I don't wanna tell them yet…" Syo sighed.

"We have to tell them, Syo." Ai mumbled. "I don't particularly wish for Reiji to find out but they have to know."

"Yeah… I suppose…"

"Although, we don't have to tell them yet. We just need to be careful around people."

"Yeah… Usually it's my fault. Like when Koaru saw us… It could've been mum and she would've hated it…"

"It's okay." Ai let go of Syo's hand. "If you want to hide it, we can't do things like this in public." Syo looked to the floor, saddened, but nodded.

"Yeah…" They carried on walking and spotted a head of spiky red hair and a taller, curly brown haired head. "Shit… We don't usually walk to school together! We only walk home."

"I'll just say I woke up late and bumped into you."

"That would nev- Wait. Didn't you say that was why you came this morning?!" Ai's face flushed bright red.

"I-I d-did…"

"You're so cute…" Syo mumbled, looking down. He then lifted his head and spotted an alleyway. After thinking for a bit he decided to pull Ai in.

"S-Syo what are you doing?" Ai looked confused and suddenly, he was being pinned to the wall. "Syo really what ar-"Ai was interrupted by Syo smashing their lips together. The kiss heated quickly as Syo licked Ai's lip to ask for entrance. Ai complied and Syo's tongue explored Ai's mouth, accidentally moaning into the kiss. Ai then pulled away, breathing heavily. "W-Why did you do that? We're in public, Syo…" Ai lowered his head, resting it on Syo's shoulder.

"I-I'm sorry… I… Couldn't control myself… School's gonna be horrible."

"Talking of school, we'll be late. Come on." Ai's face was still bright red and as they walked closer to their school, he hoped it would calm down. After a while, they got to school and stood talking with members of their club.

"How come you walked to school with Syo-chan today, Ai-Ai?" Reiji asked Ai as they walked to homeroom.

"I was slightly late this morning and bumped into him on the street."

"Is that all~?"

"Of course." Ai sighed, trying to act normal. "What else would you think?"

"Well… You and Syo-chan make the cutest couple! And its fate! Really! You live on the same street, your lockers are together! You like a lot of the same stuff too! And~" Reiji got close to Ai and whispered in his ear. "I saw you at the concert together last weekend~" Ai's face flushed deep red and for the first time, he lost all cool.

"Wh-What? H-H-How?! I-I didn't… We di-"

"Just stop Ai-Ai. You're making it worse for yourself!" Reiji laughed. "So, whats going on?" Ai sighed, trying to calm down.

"W-We... Are dating." He finally calmed down enough to force the words out of his mouth. He knw Syo wouldn't like everyone knowing so soon.

"Ai-Ai!" Reiji shoted, catching many other student's attentions. He quietened down when he noticed."That's so cute..! How long for?! What's happened~? Have you kissed yet?"

"Around 3 days, only one date and his mother forced me to stay at his home and yes, we have."

"That's so cute! Wait… His mum made you stay there?!" Reiji burst out laughing.

"Shut up." Ai mumbled. "And don't tell anyone else. Syo won't like you knowing, everyone else will just make it worse."

"Okay, Okay~"

At the end of the day, Ai and Syo met at their lockers, like they usually would before walking to club together. "Syo…" Ai mumbled.

"Yeah?"

"Reiji knows. He saw us at the concert…" Syo's face dropped.

"R-Really?! Everyone will know now… He won't keep it a secret even if you asked…"

"I know he won't… W-We just have to face it."

"Yeah…"

"Syo…"

"Hm?"

"Wo Ai Ni." Ai mumbled and Syo looked at him confused.

"What?" He laughed.

"It's Chinese."

"What does it mean?"

"You'll have to find out for yourself, Shorty." Ai smiled before walking off and having Syo chase him, confused.


Wo Ai Ni means I love you in Chinese~ - I wasn't sure what language to use and I wanted something that Syo didn't understand (I also love the Chinese language.)!
