'She ran in the darkness as she tried to get away from the madman that was chasing her. She didn't want to end up like her friend; tied-up, mangled, & dead.'
"Hey," Syuusuke said to me, driving me from my work. "Hey, senpai,"
"That's kind of formal, don't you think?"
"Hmm,"
"As I was trying to say, I'm sorry, I-"
"Shh,"
"What?"
"Shh, I said,"
"A-all r-right…"
I stood from my chair and heard little footsteps.
"Yotsuba!"
"Yes!!?"
"Come down here now…"
"Wah! Fuji-san is here!!!" Yotsuba said in her cheery, yet less-than-helpful voice. "Hey, Yot-tot," Syuusuke said. "Ha-ha! Why do you still call me that? I'm seven now!" she said. "Yeah, but that doesn't mean I still can't call you that," he said, a bit shocked by her response. "Yotsuba," I called, "You didn't just come over here without your dad's permission, did you?" "Well your mom let me in, so I guess that's enough permission," she said.
"Uhh… yeah," I said thing about the trouble she'd get in. "Well," I said, "Come on Yotsuba, get on my back," "Really?!" she said as she started climbing my back.
"I knew you were going to anyway,"
"Where are we going,"
"Home,"
"Whose house?"
"Your house,"
"Oh yeah, I did forget my games to bring over here,"
"No, I mean go to your house so you can stay there,"
"Do I have to go home?!"
"Unless you go somewhere,"
Later that night, I helped Syuusuke pack his clothing and listened to him appolgize once, or twice. "Syuusuke-kun," I finally said. "Yeah?"
"This all seems so weird to me, I mean going to a school that's 'not of my gender',"
"I understand, but you might want to hide that tramp-stamp."
"Hmm," I mumbled with a smile. "I'll help you if you need it," He said with his eyes open.
Two Weeks later:
"Syuusuke, I need to call him,"
