Aoi's Love Challenges

Chapter 6: Operation: Confession Part II

"W-What?" Aoi looked at him in shock. 'Is he serious?' Aoi was in disbelief.

"Don't be too surprise, after all I did say that I want to be the strongest in Ishiyama and seeing how Oga defeated Tojo, that made him the strongest man in this city. All you have to do is fight Oga." Himekawa told her.

"But what good would that do? Even if I do fight and beat Oga how would that make you the strongest?" Aoi questioned his logic. Himekawa chuckled and smirked.

"Whoever said you were going to beat him?" Himekawa told her. Aoi's eyes widened in surprise.

"W-What?" Aoi asked confused.

"Come on, do you really think you have what it takes to beat Oga? After all, I'm pretty sure you don't stand a chance against Tojo, so that would make defeating Oga almost impossible." He explained. "However, I do know that you will at least wear him out long enough for me to step in and deliver the finishing blow. If you remember correctly, a similar situation happened to you a little while back, no?"

Aoi gritted her teeth remembering that day. She blamed Oga for the things that happened to Nene and Chiaki that day without even asking him what had happened. She was blinded by her anger and she wondered if Oga saw her differently after that. They did however get along well with each other, at least that's what she thought. It wasn't like he hated her for it, but she knew it must have been awkward. "Y-Yeah..." She replied lowering her head.

Himekawa chuckled. "So then, what do you say?" He showed her the photo strip to make sure she made the correct choice.

"I-I-I'll do it..." She spoke, but the words felt like venom to her. If only there was some way to get those photos from him. She would stall as long as she could to get the photos from him. She knew she couldn't ask Nene or Chiaki to help her and there was no way she would ask Oga for his help as well. Those three were the last people she would ask for help with this. Maybe she could ask Saotome-sensei for help...no she didn't want anybody to get involved because they would know about the photos and the next thing she knew, they would use it against her like Himekawa is doing now. She had to do this by herself. She would stall long enough so that she could take the photos from him and stop her from fighting Oga.

"Good." Himekawa smirked and started to walk toward the door, passing by Kunieda. He stopped in front of the door before looking at her over his shoulder. "Oh and one more thing..." Aoi turned her head to glare at him. "...I expect you to do this for me by the end of the day or other wise..." He smirked not needing to finish before exiting the rooftop.

Aoi bit her bottom lip in anger. This just made her situation more complicated.

The door to the classroom opened alerting both Nene and Chiaki hoping to see Aoi return. However, their hopes were crushed when they saw that it was only Oga, Furuichi and Baby Beel and they sighed in disappointment.

The trio noticed this from the two girls. "What?" Oga asked them.

"Nothing, we thought you were someone else." Nene replied as Chiaki nodded her head beside her.

Furuichi looked around the classroom and noticed that Kunieda was nowhere to be seen. "Where's Kunieda-senpai?" He asked.

"Why do you care?" Nene asked the perverted white haired teen.

Seeing her reaction, Furuichi figured they didn't know about the date she had with Oga. Knowing Kunieda, she would definitely not want him to tell them about it, knowing full well what she is capable of. "N-Nothing..." He replied trying to keep a straight face. Nene raised her eyebrow but shrugged off her suspicion.

Oga didn't really care about what they were talking about and took his seat at his desk. Baby Beel climbed off Oga's back and onto the table looking around the classroom. He noticed there were many of them not here and crossed his arms trying to think where they could be. Oga looked at him, but ignored his actions thinking it wasn't that important to him or he just didn't care what he was doing.

The door to the classroom opened again and this time, Himekawa entered the room. Nene and Chiaki looked him with questionable looks remembering that he left along with Aoi. Himekawa walked past Oga and smirked as he glared at him through his glasses. Oga felt his glare and looked at the man.

"What?" He asked with authority.

"Nothing..." Himekawa replied walking toward his seat and sitting down. He took out his cell phone and started pressing buttons while patiently waiting for Aoi to return. Oga continued to stare at the man who he defeated easily with one blow but when the door to the classroom opened once more he turned his head around.

"Aoi-neesan!" Nene exclaimed with a wide grin as the former leader of the red tails entered. She had her eyes closed and opened them to look at Oga. However, she didn't look at him the way she normally did and instead glared at him. The whole class noticed this and were surprised at the way she looked at Oga, all but Himekawa of course who was doing his best to hold back a chuckle. "Aoi...neesan?"

Aoi ignored her and took her seat next to Oga's desk. Oga was honestly surprised by the way she looked at him and it frankly left him confused. Furuichi felt a shiver run down his spine at the glare thinking it was directed toward him, but he realized that it was actually directed toward Oga. 'W-Why is she glaring at Oga like that? Did he do something wrong on their date, after we lost them?'

Despite the way Aoi glared at Oga, she felt ashamed of herself. She was angry with herself that she had to look at him that way after everything the two had been through. She actually thought that there was something connecting between the two of them, but now after being blackmailed by Himekawa she feared that it would sever the thread she tried so hard to connect with him. It wasn't fully connected, but she knew it was getting close. At least according to her it almost was. She wondered what Oga thought of her, but now that this happened it sure would change.

She didn't dare look at Oga. She didn't want to see his expression. It would have pained her to see if he was hurt by the way she looked at him. She doubt he would feel hurt, but she knew she would misunderstood and it would cause a whole chain of other problems that would concern only herself. She felt the stares from the others and she didn't blame them. She knew that they were going to be surprised by her glare, but that still didn't ease the awkwardness she was feeling all over her body.

Oga watched her all the way to the point when she sat down in her seat. He didn't know why she suddenly gave him that look. Did he do something wrong? Oga didn't know, but it was strange to see her look at him that way. Baby Beel also found her to be acting strange. Oga decided to say something. "What's your problem?" Aoi ignored him and continued to stare down at her desk. This made Oga slightly angry that she didn't answer.

When he spoke, Aoi felt the pain in her chest get worse. She had to ignore him. She didn't want to, but she had to. If she said anything to him at this point, who knows what she would say. She was afraid she might say something she would regret and she didn't want that. She didn't want to say something that could haunt her and her relationship with Oga. She had to stay shut. No matter what he said, she could not reply. 'I'm sorry...Oga...'

"Oi..." Oga tried to get her attention, but once again, she didn't respond. He started to get irritated. He scowled. He suddenly slammed his hand on his desk, startling Baby Beel. "What the hell is your problem!" Oga yelled at her standing up. Aoi bit her bottom lip. He was angry and he had had every right to be. She was ignoring him because she thought about herself and not him. She knew it was wrong, but she just couldn't say anything to him. She turned her head in the other direction, once again ignoring him. "Ah...Oi!"

"Don't call me by my first name!" Aoi suddenly shouted at him, unable to keep her mouth shut after hearing him say her given name, even though he didn't do it on purpose. Aoi was shocked that she actually shouted and became angry with herself. Was she this weak? "J-Just leave me alone! I-I-I hate you!" With that she ran out of the classroom, her eyes shut tightly to prevent any tears from falling. Oga stood there dumbfounded. He didn't know what he did, so why was she so angry with him?

The others stared in shock at Aoi's sudden outburst. They knew Aoi had feelings for Oga, but to hear her say that she hated him so abruptly, it was just a plain shock. Himekawa on the other hand couldn't help but smirk. It was the true that he wasn't expecting her to go that far and say that she hated him, but he had to admit that it was a perfect way to get her angry enough to actually face him and be serious about it.

Nene was surprised by her sudden outburst and she knew right away that something was wrong. She wanted to go after her, but she didn't know why she didn't. She felt like even if she did she couldn't do anything about it. She did however catch Himekawa's smirk and narrowed her eyes at him. She found it strange that as soon as she came back from her talk with him, she acted this way. She had this feeling that whatever happened, he was at fault. She slammed her hands on her desk and stood up. This surprised the class as they looked at her, while she glared at Himekawa. "What's with hat look...woman?" Himekawa asked sensing her glare at him.

"You..." She gritted her teeth. "What did you and Aoi-neesan talk about?" She demanded.

"Hmm? What are you talking about?" Himekawa played dumb.

"Don't give me that playing dumb bullshit! Something happened and whatever it was it made Aoi angry at Oga!" Nene replied angrily, yelling at the white haired rich teenager.

"I wasn't playing dumb. I really have no idea why she yelled at him." Himekawa replied pressing buttons on his phone. Nene clenched her fists tightly.

"You bastard...!" Nene seethed.

"I don't understand why you are angry with me. I swear I didn't do anything." Nene angrily glared before leaving the classroom, Chiaki right behind her. Himekawa smirked before shutting his phone and looking out the window.

Aoi couldn't believe what she just said to him. 'No...I don't hate you...' Aoi looked up to the sky as she watched the clouds pass one by one. After she ran away from the classroom, she just ran. She didn't care where she was going, but she just had to get away from him. 'How could I just say that to him? It wasn't his fault! I should be blaming myself for this.' She sighed sitting down. She eventually found herself on the rooftop. She didn't why she went there of all the other places in the school. She could have locked herself inside a janitor's closet, being the easiest place to hide from anyone. Aoi frowned. 'Damn that Himekawa...damn my carelessness!' She couldn't help but blame herself.

She couldn't help but wonder what Oga thought of her after her outburst. He probably hated her. She pressed her knees against her chest and wrapped her arms around her legs. 'He probably hates me...no, he does...damn all this...' Aoi placed her forehead against her knees and closed her eyes. She then heard the sound of the door to the roof open. 'It's probably Nene and Chiaki...' She assumed. She didn't bother turning around. She didn't want to face her two best friends. She heard the footsteps come closer to her and stop just behind her. She waited for the person or persons to speak, but they didn't. She could sense the person's eyes on her. 'Why are they just standing behind me...? Say something!' Her wish was granted.

"Dah!" Aoi's eyes widened and she turned her head around. Standing behind her was Oga and Baby Beel.

"O-Oga..." She muttered his name, surprised to see him. He only stared down at her. His face didn't show anger like she thought it would. It didn't show any expression. Aoi thought for sure he would be angry with him. So, why wasn't he? "W-What are you doing here!"

He shrugged. "Don't know..." He replied. He walked past her and took a seat in front of the railing. She watched him as he took out a purple bag. He reached inside and took out a baby bottle and started shaking it. He picked up Baby Beel from behind him and started to feed him his milk.

"Ah!" Baby Beel squealed in excitement. Oga started to feed him his bottle. Aoi looked at him in awe. Oga lifted his head up to look back at her and she blushed at his gaze.

"What?" Oga asked.

"Why?" She whispered, hiding her eyes behind her bangs. Oga raised an eyebrow at her. "Why don't you hate me?"

"Hm? Why would I hate you?" He said to her, lifting the bottle up a bit for Baby Beel. Aoi was surprised. He didn't hate her even after she had that outburst. She even yelled that she hated him and he still didn't hate her. This made her feel happy She smiled.

'This baka...' Despite being an idiot, she saw something in him that she couldn't help but have these feelings for him. She stood up. Oga watched her as she turned around. "T-thank you..." She blushed. "...for not hating me..." Her smile widened when she walked toward the door. She took one last glance at Oga before beginning to walk down the stairs. She disappeared from Oga's sight. Aoi only took a few steps before her eyes widened when she saw Himekawa leaning against the side wall at the bottom step. He looked away from his phone and up at her. He smirked when he took out the photo strip. She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. 'Damn it...!'

Oga looked back down to Baby Beel after Aoi headed downstairs. He didn't know why he came up to the roof, but for some strange reason he knew she was going to be up here. He was surprised by the way she yelled at him, but he didn't really care. So, why did he come up here? It was all too confusing. Baby Beel happily gurgled at the taste of his milk. However it was short lived when the bottle was suddenly cut in half making the milk spill all over Oga and Baby Beel. Oga was shocked at what just happened. "W-What the...?" He looked up and his eyes widened slightly as he stared straight up at Aoi. "K-Kunieda...?"

Aoi didn't respond. Her eyes hidden behind her bangs so he couldn't see her expression, but from the aura she emitted, she was serious. Baby Beel started welling up tears when his bottle broke, but when he looked up to see who caused it, he stopped. He was just surprised as Oga was.

"Oga...let's fight." Aoi told him, pointing her wooden sword at Oga. He was confused by her sudden challenge, but then smirked. He was never one to not accept a challenge.

"Yosh..."
