Hey everyone here's the second chapter thank you to everyone who gave positive reviews for this story it really means a lot to me hope you enjoy the chapter
It had been a week since Yuu and the girls started their first year at True Cross Academy and Yuu still hadn't worked up the courage to talk to the guy in the class that she had become interested in, the boy who went by the name Ryuuji Suguro. It was currently the break between second and third period and the girls were all hanging out in a hallway not too far from their next class to make sure they didn't get there late.
"So Yuu, when are you gonna ask Suguro-san out on a date?" Kagari asked slyly and Yuu the proceeded to choke on the juice box she was currently drinking, by now Kagari and Yomi had noticed Yuu's interest in Suguro and Kagari seemed to take as much pleasure at teasing Yuu as Mato did. "W-w-what are t-talking about Kagari I'm not asking Suguro out, I don't even have any kind of interest in him." Yuu said nervously trying her best to lie even though she knew it was pointless, "Denial." Mato and Kagari deadpanned in sync with each other, "Hey don't talk in sync it's really creepy and I think that you're upsetting Yuu with all this teasing." Yomi said glaring the hazel and blue eyed devils as they continually tortured the poor brunette despite being the peacemaker of the group she was by far the scariest out of them all when she was pissed.
"Hai, hai I hear you Yomi we'll ease up on the teasing so please stop with the glaring. But seriously Yuu it's obvious to all of us that you like Suguro so there's no need to be embarrassed, we're not saying you should walk up to the guy and flat out ask him out on a date just try and find an excuse to start a conversation and try and make friends with him." Mato suggested with a sincere smile on her face but Yuu didn't seem comforted by her words at all. "You say that like it's easy in case you haven't noticed he doesn't seem like the person you can just talk to and since when are you an expert on relationships when you've never had a boyfriend." Yuu said pointing her finger at Mato who was trying to keep her smile in place but a vein could clearly be seen pulsing in her head after Yuu's last comment.
"Hey I have an idea, Suguro-san seems to talk to that bald kid a lot, why don't you try talking to him he seems a lot more approachable and if you're on good terms with his friends then it should make it easier to talk to him." Mato explained, "Well I guess I could give it a try." Yuu said while twiddling her fingers, "Yosh, ok so me and Yuu will try to talk to him at lunch cuz it might be awkward if all of us go up to him at once agreed?" Mato asked her eyes filled with determination "Agreed." The rest of them said in unison.
RYUUJI POV
Ryuuji was in the middle of yet another fight with a certain boy with messy navy blue hair over who it was that grabbed the last sandwich available at the student food store. "I'm tellin ya to let go of it ya idiot." Ryuuji demanded butting his head against his classmate rival with a fierce look in his eyes, "And I'm tellin ya not a chance in hell Rooster boy." The blue haired youth answered with a look just as fierce in his blazing bright blue eyes. "Come on you two need to hurry up and stop this whole food debating hing cuz it's really gettin old." A pinked haired boy said with his hands behind his head with an exasperated expression, "Shima-san's right I mean why can't the two of you just take turns over who gets the last sandwich." Konekomaru said with an equally exasperated expression on his face.
"No way in hell I'm backing down from this chump." The two youth's answered in unison it seemed that the rather pointless conflict would last for the entire lunch break until a voice called out to the blue haired boy. "Rin what exactly are you doing." The boy asked who was revealed to be Yukio Okumura "Don't tell me you're picking fights again I thought that you were going to start making your own lunches instead of getting into these pointless squabbles."
Yukio asked while straightening his glasses, "Shut it four-eyes you're my little brother aren't ya, so why don't you give you're big bro a hand huh?" Rin asked while still continuing his death glare match with Ryuuji. "If the fight had any sense of meaning then I would this however is just plain stupid." Yukio stated before pulling his older twin by the collar of his shirt and pulling him away. "Now come on I've gotta make sure you get to your next class before I head over to mine, don't want you getting lost for the hundredth time." Yukio said while keeping a frim hold on Rin, "Hey hold it mole face I haven't settled this with that punk faced rooster boy yet." Rin whined as he struggled in vain to break free of Yukio's grip as his voice faded out of ears reach from the Kyoto trio.
"Looks like I win this round dumdass." Ryuuji stated with a smug smile on his face. "Technically the match was undecided Bon, seeing as how Sensei dragged Okumura-kun off before one of you backed down." Shima said his words turning Ryuuji's smirk into a pissed off scowl, "Don't go ruining my victory Shima." Ryuuji growled angrily, "What victory all I saw was two morons lockin heads with each other over some cheap sandwich." Shima retorted but before Ryuuji could say anything else Konekomaru decided to step in "Ok Shima-san that's enough, you too Bon come on class is gonna start soon we should probably head over there now so we're not late." "Aww shit I forgot I left my pencil case in my chemistry class I'm just gonna go get it you two go on ahead I'll catch up later." Ryuuji said as he smacked his face in annoyance. "You, the guy with super memory forgot his pencil case." Shima said as he snickered, "Shut it Shima!" Ryuuji said as he started running back into the school building. What am I gonna do with you two. Konekomaru thought holding the side of his temple with his right hand.
YUU POV
Mato and Yuu were a few feet away deciding to make their move after Ryuuji left. "Holy crap now that I get a good look at him Miwa-san might actually be shorter than you that's a bad sign." Mato said with genuine shock as Yuu proceeded to give the pigtailed girl a firm smack on the head, "Quiet Baka don't go saying stuff like that when we talk to him it's insulting to both of us." Yuu said. "Hai but you gotta admit it's a little strange having to look down to someone for a cha-*another smack to the head*ITAI ok ok I'll keep my mouth shut about the height thing." Mato said holding her bruised head as they made their way to the two boys.
"Excuse me Miwa-san." Mato called out to them and waved when they both looked back at them. "You know these two cuties Koneko? Well aren't you a little stud." Shima whispered while giving his friend a light elbow to the side. "There both in mine and Bon's class Shima-san nothing more." Konekomaru said with a tint of red in his cheeks. "Sorry to bother you like this I'm Mato Kuroi and this is my friend Yuu Koutari." Mato said gesturing to Yuu who gave a rather cheerful hello. "Hello Kuroi-san, Koutari-san." Konekomaru replied giving to two girls a warm smile he then turned to SHIMA TO INTRODUCE HIM "This is my frien- "I'm Renzou Shima but you lovely ladies can call me Shima, Renzou or even Renny-kun if you prefer." Shima rudely interrupted whilst leaning a little closer to Mato and Yuu who were just about to give the pink play boy a simultaneous kick in the balls but luckily for Shima's sake Konoekomaru grabbed his friend by the ear and gave it a hard tug pulling him a safe distance away.
"I'm so sorry about Shima-san he just has no manners when it comes to talking to women I'll make sure to reprimand him propely later. *Koneko turned to scowl at Shima who was holding his red ear pouting before turning back to smile at Mato and Yuu*
So what did you want to speak to me about." Konekomaru asked. "Well you see it's a little embarrassing to say but Yuu and I totally suck in our creative writing class and everyone knows that you, Suguro-san and the class rep are the smartest in our class so we were hoping since you two seem such good friends that maybe we could organise a little study session with Suguro-san this weekend, we know it's a pain but we would really appreciate the extra help." Mato asked bowing slightly while clasping her hands and keeping one eye open to make the classic cute begging pose. "Yeah Ok that sounds great, I'll ask Bon I mean Suguro but I'm sure he'll say yes and is it OK if we invite one of our friends too he's a nice guy but he's not the sharpest guy I know and I think he could use the help too." Koneko replied scratching the back of his head when referring to Rin.
"That's fine we might invite one of our friends too but don't worry it'll only be like one or two promise so is Saturday a good time for you guys." Mato asked, "Yeah that's fine here's my number, I'll let you know when and where it'll be." Konekomaru asked while handing a piece of paper with his number on to the blue-eyed girl. "Thanks we can't wait well see ya guys later, come on Yuu." Mato said leaving with Yuu following behind her. "Bye Kuroi-san and Koutari-san nice meeting you." Koneko called out as the two girls left.
Lucky for Yuu no one seemed to notice that her face explode a deep shade of red when she heard the words "Study session with Suguro." After hearing those words the rest of the conversation was muted out as she kept repeating those four words in her head while at least a thousand different scenarios went through her head about what would happen they ranged from Yuu making a complete fool of herself to Ryuuji pinning her against a blackboard calling her "Naughty". (A/N: Pervert Alert.) For the rest of the walk to their class Mato couldn't help but give her friend a concerned glance seeing that she was still red as a tomato and muttering to herself I think I'll just leave her alone. Mato thought deciding not to interrupt whatever delusions Yuu was experiencing.
OOOOOO Looks like things are heating up I might have to up the rating to M just to be safe and anyone who's read my reviews really shouldn't be surprised by this because I MIGHT include a lemon in the story but that's a big MIGHT so don't get your hopes up.
Anyway I plan for Ryuuji and Yuu, Rin and Mato to meet at the study session and I'll let their relationship blossom from there I'll get to the darker themes and Otherself powers at later chapters but I'll just try and make the relationship seem as normal as possible.
To Izanagi007 see I included Rin just like I promised.
Please rate and review and I'll see you guys next time.
