Hello again everyone, here's a new chapter for ya, sorry for not updating in about a week (I have problems of my own), anyhow, this character is based off of me and at least 90% of what she does, I have done, just to clarify a little. And I'm also making Snow help Yuri, but you still got a chance to change that. I hope you enjoy!!!
I woke up, a few rays of sunlight were decorating my room, barely illuminating it; my head was hurting, probably because I watched too many videos. "What's a good reason to even wake up today?" I ask out loud. I got up and went to the bathroom, I cleaned my face with warm water, it gave a temporary relief to my headache. I returned to my room and changed to my outfit, but I changed it up a little, instead of the normal gray jacket, I put on a black one instead, it looked better with the white and blue colors.
I went to the kitchen and made breakfast; I cut up an apple, got a glass of milk, and a cookie. I didn't feel like cooking today. I went to brush my teeth, the pain had started to go away. After that I did my hair, it didn't entangle much, which made it easier to brush.
With everything done, I made sure I got my poem and everything else. I was too tired to even realize that school started in 7 minutes. "FUCK ME" I said and bolted out of my apartment after closing it. On my way running a car almost hit me, but I vaulted over it, the guy in the car must have been pissed, he honked the horn several times. I kept on running, with the new found energy from fear of being late. I reached the school, only to see that they closed the gates. I felt my lungs burning, but I wasn't something I couldn't handle, I stop to catch my breath. "Fuck me again", I prepared to do a gate vault, I ran towards the gate to get some momentum to help reach the top of the gate, (this part is difficult to explain) I placed my leg in the gate, giving me an upwards boost, with my hands I grabbed the top and pulled my legs up (kind of like a hand stand) and let them fall forwards, I bent my legs to absorb the impact with the ground.
The few students that were around to see me do my trick were either amazed or laughing, probably because they saw my underwear while my legs were in the air. I didn't mind, I have been humiliated worse. I proceeded to my classes.
During Math class:
"How is this hard, it's just simple trigonometry" I ask myself "Well, probably because some people aren't as smart as you are" I responded to myself, I was the first one to finish the work, while the others were only half way done. "This is going to be boring"
Classes ended and I went to the club, I was planning to go together with Mike but he went somewhere else. I was the first one in the class, I went to the whiteboard and started to quickly do my math homework while listening to my music without headphones. I danced a little to the beat, and followed the drum beats with the marker I was using. (If you're wondering what music it is, it's Dimension by Creo, go check it out you won't regret it!!)
"It sounds nice, even I like it"
I jumped from where I was standing, surprised that Natsuki managed to enter the classroom without me hearing her. I grabbed my phone and paused the music.
"How the fuck did you get in?!"
"I was already here you retard, I was in the closet, reading." She said with her arms crossed.
"Ok, how much did you see?"
"Enough to see you shake for 3 minutes~hehe, but seriously, what's the name, it sounds good"
"Fuck off, you never saw me do that, understand?" I look at her with a serious face, I was angry that she saw me dance.
"Sure, what's the name?"
"You won't find it" I feared this question, I haven't come up with an explanation, so I lied "I made it"
"Really?!" Asked Natsuki, surprised "How?"
"It's a secret" She was visibly upset "Anyway, where are the others?"
"Sometimes they're late, Monika plays the piano and Yuri...does stuff" She said while looking down "Sayori just plays around before coming here"
When she finished speaking Yuri walked in "Hello, my apologies for being late, I had to speak to my teacher for a project, nobody wanted to work with me" She was covering her face, maybe she was sad "Hey, I can help you if you want, what's the project about?" I asked her, I wasn't sure how she would respond, but I genuinely wanted to help her. "Really?!" She was surprised "The project is to build a catapult, I was thinking of building a ballista, which has better accuracy than a catapult which is great because we have to hit targets with it, but we have to work in groups...and no one wanted to work with me..." At this point she had lowered her voice and was looking away "A catapult, I have experience building one, I'll go help you this weekend if you want" She looked at me "Thank you...you're so kind to me..." She said, her voice shaking a little "No need to thank me, I just want to help."
Sayori and Mike come in to the classroom "Hello" She said "Sup" Said Mike "Hello, how are you guys?" I said "We're good, I went to buy Sayori something." He said "HEY!, does anyone know where Monika is?" Natsuki interrupted with her high-pitched voice.
Suddenly, Monika comes in in a hurry "Oh man, I'm the last one here." She said "If you want to see the devil, just say his name" I whispered to Natsuki. She looked at me and nodded. She went to the closet and began reading.
"Um...Feli-I mean Snow, w-would you like to r-read with m-me? You already have a copy and I was hoping to discuss it." She said nervously "O-only if you want to!" She added, her face a bright red. "Sure, I was going to ask you the same thing...also, you don't need to blush~hehe" Her face became even more red "Oh ok, do you mind if I make some tea first? And some for you as well." She said while covering her face. "Sure, go ahead, but I'll pass on the tea if you don't mind" I responded "Not at all." She quickly went to the closet and grabbed the utensils needed to make her tea.
I got my book and went to the wall, I however, noticed that Sayori wasn't talking much, she was starring at nothing, Mike was sleeping. "Going for Sayori I see" I said to myself. "Wait if Sayori isn't talking...her depression is going faster than I expected, I must keep an eye on her, and I need to spend more time with Natsuki...Fuck" I argued with myself "Why aren't you here Dylan...I need your help" I closed my eyes, frustrated.
"Hey, we can begin now if you want." Yuri told me. "Do you mind if I listen to music?" I asked Yuri "N-Not at all, please do!" We began reading, but midway I asked Yuri "Hey Yuri, what's wrong with Sayori?" "I don't know, I was wondering the same thing, she is usually more active." She responds while still looking at her book.
I wanted to test the waters a little, see her reaction if I mention Libitina. "Want to know something funny, it feels as if have met this person from the book. I believe her name was Lily~no, Lucy, Liberty~ha no, Libitina~yes!! That's the name." I felt Yuri becoming more tense, she slowly turned her head towards me, looking at me with those purple eyes. "Oh really, where did you meet her?" She said, her voice was different, not her shy, nervous tone; but a more confident, serious tone. "I don't remember, it feels as if I met her in another world, weird you know?" I responded, satisfied with the response I got. "Yea...weird" She responded while continuing to read.
"Hey everyone!!! Time to share poems!!" Monika said, excited. I went to my backpack and retrieved my poem, I went up to Yuri first, I wanted her "expert" opinion. "Hey Yuri, you seem to be experienced in writing and I wanted to see how good I did." I told her "P-please don't say things like that, I'm not that good." I handed her my poem and she read it.
"The...meaning..." She said quietly
"What was that?" I asked
"S-sorry!! Did I say that out loud?"
"Don't worry, just tell me what you think"
She took a deep breath "Ok, your style of writing is...creative, your choice of words is simple, but the meaning it conveys is truly exceptional. I have reasons to believe this is about being betrayed and wanting to change things; maybe even about not being able to save someone, with the mention of 'I'll rewrite the ending' and 'before we say our goodbyes'. This also sounds like a song, overall I do believe you did a great job" (Song is Say Goodbye by Krewella)
"I was actually thinking the same thing, after reading it it sounded like a song. Thanks for the feedback, may I read yours?"
"Yes, please."
I began reading Yuri's poem, it was the exact same thing as the one in the game.
"I really like it, your way with words is excellent, and the metaphors and imagery. Although, the meaning you convey with this is somewhat..disturbing, you shouldn't do that to yourself, it leaves marks your know?" I told Yuri while making a slash motion on my arm.
Yuri immediately got a worried look "Wait, y-you understood the m-meaning?"
"Yes, it's pretty simple if you actually think about it, see ya." I told her while walking away.
I went to Sayori next "Hey Sayori want to read mine?" "Yea sure" I hand her my poem "It's really good, simple, but I can see the message" She told me "Listen Sayori, I don't know what's going on with you, but, I need to talk to you tomorrow, we don't have enough time now, but it's something really important." I told her with a serious look on my face "Ok, we'll talk tomorrow" She handed me her poem. As I expected, it was the same as the game. "It's a little...different, did you write it this morning" I asked "Um...maybe" She told me while looking down "Wow Sayori, it's still really good"
I went to Natsuki next. "This is going to be fun" I said to myself. "My favorite tusendere!! Ready to be amazed?!" I said sarcastically. "Shut up, give me the paper." She grabbed the paper and started to read. "Its fine, but it is almost complicated" She said while shoving the paper at my chest. "Not cute enough for you then" I said with a grin "Shut it, now read mine" She handed me her paper, same as the one in game. "You know, I like how at the end you let it drop, like how you would be disappointed if you failed or something like that, I like it" I told her "See, I told you a was the best" She said with a smile "Yea, I also like to tell myself that I'm the best since no one else tells me that. I know that feeling" I told her "That's...not...true" She looked down "Don't worry, I know you're the best" I tried to cheer her up.
Next was Mike, his was bittersweet and simple. "I like it, it's kind of like Sayori's" I told him "Yea, I know, Yuri, Monika, and Natsuki told me already" He responded "Good luck" I told him while walking away. His face had a confused expression.
Monika was last, her poem the same. "It's abstract, cool" I told her "Yea, yours is nice" She told me.
It was almost time to go, we all gathered our things and waited for the time to go. "Bye" Sayori said "See ya" Said Mike while walking with Sayori. "Later" Said Natsuki, "Bye" Monika said while walking out. Yuri and me were the last ones "Hey Yuri, do you need my contact information so we can arrange when we're going to meet?" I asked her "Y-Yes, here's m-my number."
We exchanged numbers and made sure it was us. "See ya later" I told Yuri while waving "Bye" She said back.
To my luck, Sayori didn't go that far from the school, so I followed her, I needed to know where she lived in case certain "events" happened. She lived relatively close to me, a few blocks away. I made my way back home and made myself dinner. I finished any homework that I had and went to shower. The hot water was giving a massage to my body, just what I needed. I put on my underwear and went to write my poem. By the time I got done, it was already time to sleep, so I went to brush my teeth and then to bed. I was too tired to even put on my pajamas. "Tomorrow is another day." And I fell asleep.
