The one I desire
During the next days Azuma didn't have anything to do, since Nakamura-san still hadn't returned to the Academy. He had spent some hours on the training ground and some of his time in the big library to search for some interesting fantasy novels.
Reading old fantasy novels, written in Japanese or English, was one of his greatest hobbies. Azuma used those books for entertainment and for collecting ideas to create powerful spells he could use in battles. There was always a novel waiting for him in his room to be read, while he would take notes and form spells on paper to think about what they could do in a battle and if they would be useful at all.
It was about lunch time when Azuma entered the library, he didn't really feel hungry and wanted to search for any new and interesting book. It didn't have to be a fantasy novel all the time, science or biology books were useful as well. Science and biology shouldn't get underestimated for forming spells, after all the spells could attack or defend. Knowing the anatomy of his enemy and the laws of nature was important.
Silently Azuma was standing in front of a bookshelf he never looked at before. Books from an author called "Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche" were standing there. Carefully he took out one of the books, opening it to read about the author. The title of the book was 'Beyond good and evil' and it somehow caught his interest. Maybe he should give the book a try. But then someone appeared next to him, smiling lightly. The figure next to him made him freeze, before he bowed deeply. Azuma could feel his cheeks heat up, he hadn't seen the other male human coming closer. "I-I'm sorry for my rudeness, Aoyagi-sama." Azuma said and hoped the Gisei wouldn't be mad.
"There is no need to bow, Takagi-kun." the soft voice of Ritsuka Aoyagi told him. Azuma nearly squawked when he heard that silky voice. And he knew how the faction leader of Sentinel Sun looked like. Attractive… more than just attractive in the Sentouki's eyes, but Azuma wouldn't admit that. If he was envy, then that Agatsuma-san could call Ritsuka his Gisei, though he actually belonged to the Gisei's older brother.
"But I have to be…" Azuma finally tried to protest softly, happy that he didn't accidently stutter.
"Be polite? You haven't done anything wrong, Takagi-kun. Though I'm not your Gisei and I'm not the one who reigns with an iron fist." Ritsuka replied, his black cat tail swaying lightly behind him.
Azuma wanted to protest more, though he didn't know what to reply to that. Ritsuka was right and whenever Azuma came too close to the Gisei… he felt so weak. Almost like the little child again that had been picked up so many years ago. Azuma once more scolded himself quietly in his thoughts 'Just why am I blushing when I get near Aoyagi-sama? He is my faction leader and looks good, that's true… but I'm, not a little school girl!'
"I-I have to go, Aoyagi-sama. I apologize I can't spend more time to talk." he said hasty and ran towards the entrance. In his hurry to get away from Ritsuka, the Sentouki even forgot to register the book and simply took it back with him. That would cause him some trouble later, but that was nothing bad.
