Chapter 6: Field Trip
'My goodness…' A teenager with glasses, known as Naruse Shisuto, admired his reflection in the window, 'I'm too handsome!' He sit down dramatically, 'My name is Naruse Shisuto. And I'm this story's handsome protagonist.'
"That's his personal option." A boy with expressionless face, Kometani Chuushaku, said, "The actual setting is different from the situation."
'Oh kami, I swear they are multiplying every time I come in this class.' Naruto looked at them from the distance as the narcissist show off while the emotionless boy commented and he turn back to chat with Shouko as soon as Shisuto stand up in strange T pose on his chair. "About this question number twenty, what did you answer?"
"Hello, Komi-sa…" Shisuto attempted to approached the beauty but every time he tried, the classmates bump his shoulders many time that they were actually mobbing him. "Hello, Ko…Hello, K…"
'There is something wrong with this class.' The blonde looked back with a sweatdrop while Shouko wrote her reply down on notebook and they left the class for the room change. They walk together in hallway and the blonde swear he heard Shisuto's voice behind but it disappear right away before another voice speak up lovely.
"Naruto-kun, Komi-san, wait for me!" Ren glomped the blonde's back.
"Ugh…" Naruto shrugged her off his back, "What do you want?"
"Nothing, I want to walk with you two…" The trendy girl smiled cheerily, "And hope to pick up some fallen hairs."
"…Don't." The blonde grunted as they head to their next class and he kept swearing that he heard some noises behind him all the day, he refuse to look back.
The usual fans were hanging around Shouko's desk as they tried to get in her favor while Naruto stare on blankly and he notice Shisuto shuffle by the group nervously when the fans glared at him menacingly. 'That sure remind me of the first day.' He can't help but to pity this narcissist and at same time, Shouko notice that the narcissist have drop his handkerchief on the way out before she get up to pick it up then out of the classroom to return it to the owner. She return within few minutes, sitting down and Naruto wonder what'll the result be like when this narcissist come back.
The very next day, Shisuto lean against a wall as he blew his bangs up and in front of him were Shouko and Naruto, whom were staring at him weirdly. 'What…What the hell is he doing?' Naruto sweatdropped at this guy before he take his phone out while pushing his hair back with a 'sexy' smug smirk, '…Say something!'
"It is a good chance so he want to exchange phone numbers." Chuushaku muttered quietly. Shouko stare at him for few moments before she touch the cell phone then walk past him, not know what to do in this situation.
"…" Naruto and the expressionless boy looked at the silent narcissist and Shisuto slowly move his phone sideway to the blonde. "Me?"
"Without accepting reality, he thought that getting Naruto-kun's number first could be a better start." The expressionless boy spoke, "This is how he is, but he isn't a bad person so give him a chance."
"…Oookay, sure." The blonde sighed.
"Naruto-kun get his first male friend and his friends increased!" Naruto wonder if it was a wise decision to make and he even get Chuushaku's numbers.
"Tomorrow we'll decide the groups for the field trip." The homeroom teacher announced to her class as soon as it start.
"Alriiiiiiiiiiight!" Najimi stood up on her desk, "I WAS BORN FOR THE SAKE OF THE FIELD TRIP!"
"Really?" Someone said, "Just because of that?" The students start to chat with each other as Shouko look down and the lavender-haired girl sit down in front of Naruto's desk after passed out the field schedule.
"KYOTO!" The lavender-haired girl said excitingly, "The alluring wonderland where the past and present seem to meld together! Hehe…I can't wait."
"You like Kyoto, huh?" Naruto said.
"Tch tch tch." Najimi wiggled her index finger, "You're misunderstanding something, Naruto-kun." She winked, "When it comes to field trips, you don't ask 'where are you going' but 'whom are you going with'."
"Oh, okay." The blonde replied, "But there's more to Kyoto than that like temples, pagoda and…"
"Heeeehhh…" The lavender-haired girl read the schedule, not caring about Kyoto.
"…Is there any place you'd like to visit, Shouko?" Naruto turned to the beauty but there was no response from her, "Shouko?" The beauty jerk up at his voice.
"I'm sorry, what were you saying?" Shouko wrote.
"I was asking if there was any place you'd like to visit." He said and there was a long pause.
"It would be nice if we could all go to the game center again." She replied.
"In Kyoto?" Naruto raised his eyebrow.
"I would like to see the silver pavilion." Shouko wrote quickly, appear to be flustered.
"Ah, I see." The blonde hummed, "There's a gold pagoda, right? It would be pretty cool if…"
"Excuse me for a bit." The beauty wrote before she walk out with a sluggish pace and head down, something that Naruto notice.
"So like, was the tofu this delicious!?" Najimi said to Naruto as the friends walk together across the bridge with Shouko, "It's the magic of Kyoto! The mere act of soaking it in hot water makes a drastic change!"
"Shouko, what about you?" Naruto glanced to the said girl, "Where did you went to on your middle school field trip?"
"I went to Kyoto." Shouko answered.
"Oh, so this'll be a second time for you!" The lavender-haired girl chirped before she run ahead of them with a cheery wave, "Weeelp, I'll be off now. I have another quintuple booking!"
"This girl…" He sighed wearily as he waved back while Shouko give her a good-bye bow before his head turn to the beauty, "Shall we go?" Shouko nod then they walk together in silence, "…This field trip might be interesting." She nodded, "Najimi claimed that she have more than hundred thousands friends in Kyoto. I don't know whenever to believe her or not." She nodded few times then it become quiet once again, "…Did you go see your grandparents over the break?" The beauty nod again then look down, "…Is there something wrong?"
"What do you mean?" The beauty asked after few moments.
"You kept looking down all day." Naruto said.
"It's okay." Shouko replied, "I'm fine."
"If you say so." He looked ahead, "But if there's something that bother you, you can talk to me anytime you want. I may not help out much but you'll always have my ears." He notice that the beauty have stop in her trail before she walk again but at sluggish pace and they kept walk until they reach a corner. "I'm going now." He said to bowing beauty, "Get home safety." He barely take few steps until his phone suddenly rang and he pull it out to see Shouko's name on caller ID. "Hm?" He answered it, despite the fact that the beauty was right around the corner, "Hello, Shouko."
"…I'm sorry." The beauty said softy, "I lied to you awhile ago. Truth is, I've never been to Kyoto…Truth is, I'm not…Okay." Naruto said nothing, "When we were deciding the groups for the field trip in middle school, I was the only one left alone. Of course. At that time, I never had someone close that I could call a friend, and at that time, I never had any means to express my own thoughts. Then they began playing rock paper scissors. And I joined the group that was left. I couldn't even look my groupmates back then in the eye. They were all probably disappointed to have someone like me in the group of friends they finally assembled. Or maybe, they didn't even care at all. I would have been happier if that was the case. Or maybe they welcomed me with a smile…But I still couldn't bring myself to raise my head…" There was a pause, "On the day of the field trip, I didn't show up. I'm scared."
"Well, you have friends now." Naruto said.
"Yes." Shouko replied, "But I am sure…That everyone has someone else they would rather be with. Someone…Much brighter…And easier to talk to…Than me."
"I'll be there." He said, "And Najimi too. She may be in your group since it's divided by genders."
"I'm sorry." The beauty said softy, "That's all there is to it. And…Thank you for listening to m…"
"Well, if it turn out that way, then how about we both skip the field trip and go somewhere you want together?" Naruto cut her off, leaning against the wall as he glance at the beauty around the corner.
"…Eh?" Shouko gasped, "That…You can't…No…I mean, I-I-I'm happy you feel that way, but y-you were really looking forward to the field trip, Naruto-kun."
"Alright." The blonde said, "Then shall we go to Kyoto together?" The beauty suddenly hang up on him and he blinked few times until he hear Shouko's voice behind the corner.
"It…It's okay." The beauty placed hands on her burning cheeks, "I-I under…Stand."
"Really?" Naruto tilted his head.
"Errr, thank you so much." Shouko muttered, "I feel…A lot better now."
"That's good to hear." He grinned.
"…And…" The beauty spoke up again, "About the field trip. I'm looking forward to it."
"Yeah, me too." Naruto replied.
The next day, Shouko was shivering nervously in her seat as the teacher enter the room. "Is everyone here?" The teacher asked, "Then let's decide the grou…"
"I WANNA BE IN THE SAME GROUP AS KOMI!" All girls cried out to the beauty's shock and Naruto chuckled lightly.
Yeah, I kinda expected this to happen, so we're going to decide groups by lottery." The homeroom teacher deadpanned as she take a lottery box out, "Don't fight."
'…Why don't you do it in first place?!' Naruto stared at his teacher blankly and the girls look on in pure shock and confusion.
At the train station, Shouko walk to the gathering place for the first day of field trip and she hear someone call out to her. "Ooooi, Komi!" Najimi waved next to Naruto, "Over here!" The beauty gave them a bow as soon as she reach them.
"You look really exiting." The blonde commented and she gave him a nod before they start boarding the train.
"Yaaaay!" The lavender-haired girl quickly lie down on three empty seats, "We have the whole train reserved! We can sleep!" She went to sleep, "SNOORE!"
"Oi, get up and put your bags away." Naruto sighed as the students stow their bags away then take their seats and he turn to his homeroom teacher after putting his stuff away. "Teach, I'll do head count."
"Okay." The teacher shooed him away, want to play minesweeper on her phone.
'Lazyass.' The blonde walk down the aisle, checking on every groups.
"Why did I wind up in a different group from Komi-san." Ren complained as she sit with Himiko and Omoharu, "They totally forced this on me."
"That's my line, and of all people I had to be with the sweets…" Omoharu grumbled.
"Hm?" The trendy girl glared, "Sweets? Who exactly are you talking about?" Himiko regret that she chose the middle seat and Naruto check on other group.
"By the way, where are you from, Inaka?" Nene asked.
"FUE?!" Nokoko yelped out.
"You have a bit of an accent, don't youuu." Kaede asked and the country girl gulped nervously, she don't know that the whole class realize she's from the countryside. Naruto check on the third group, Amami, Makeru and Ai were playing a old maid game and he can't help but to sweatdrop at Makeru's furious expression. Don't they just start the game?
"Hey, hey, where do you wanna go?" The spiky haired boy asked his friends as Naruto move on to the next group.
"Aah, I want to eat these green tea sweets!" The boy with combed-back hairdo said.
"Look, isn't this so cuteee?" Shinobi gushed and Naruto check few more groups until he reach his own group.
'Hey, hey!' Shisuto stared at his reflection in the window dreamily, 'I'm beautiful even when riding a bullet train!'
"And I'm in Naruto's group too." Chuushaku held up a V sign with blank face.
'I don't know how to feel about that.' Naruto sighed mentally before he check on Shouko's group, the beauty have been paired up with Katou Mikuni, a girl with glasses, and Sasaki Ayami, a girl with short hair and headband. The girls were sitting in complete silence and he can't help but to worry about this group. He hope she'll be able to befriend her groupmates, who look very normal to him. With that, he return to his seat…Only to look at the grinning lavender-haired girl as she sit behind his seat, "…Why were you following me around and socializing with every groups I checked on?"
"Why not?" Najimi snickered before she fall asleep, "SNORE!"
"Oi, don't fake-sleeping on me." The blonde sit down with a eyeroll.
"IT'S KYOTO!" The lavender-haired girl shouted out on top of her lung as soon as her class gets off the train at Kyoto's station.
"Today we'll all be moving around together, don't get lost." The homeroom teacher said.
'I-Is it relly okay?' Nokoko shivered, haven't yet step off the train, 'Am ah relly worthy of treading on dis sacred land?'
"Hey, don't stand there, you'll end up getting lost if the doors closed on you." Naruto take the countryside girl's hand to move her off the train, "Don't be nervous, it's okay."
"O-O-Okay." The blushing country girl squeaked and the class starts boarding a tour bus, taking their seats.
"Everyone from Class 1-1, good morning!" A tour guide spoke into the PA's microphone as soon as the bus move, "I, Tenjouin Ryouko, will accompany you for today. I hope that you would all have a nice time on your tlip." She bit her tongue as everyone stared at her, "…Do excuse me for that, I'm somewhat of a newbie here, so I might make some mistakes here and there, so please bare with me." She smiled with some sweats and embarrassing blush, "Well then, on the right you can see…"
"RYOUKO-CHAN, RYOUKO-CHAN!" Najimi raised her hand up with waves.
"Ryo…" Ryouko said, "Yes?"
"Ryouko-chan, do you have a boyfriend?" The smiling lavender-haired girl asked bluntly.
"I-I don't have one." The smiling guide manages to calm herself down.
"I see." The spiky haired boy stands up with a wink, "Then how about I nominate myself for that position."
"No, I'm sorry." The guide replied.
"Come on, you won't re…" The boy was about to begged until the bus stop in front of the temple and most students eagerly get off the bus to head inside the building as the guide look slightly furious that they took initiative from her and walk ahead of her when she should be in front.
"May I have your attention please?" Ryouko gestured to a rock garden behind her, "In this Ryouan temples rock garden, there are fifteen rocks arranged iin traditional Japanese way, but they are arranged so that no matter what angle you look at them from this hallway, one will always be hidden. There are a lot of theories about this, but fifteen is a perfect numbers formed by adding three, five, and seven together, so by taking one away, it's like you're trying to find what's missing in your soul…And that's…" She noticed that most of students weren't paying attention to her but to Shouko, "Uhh…Err…" She gritted her teeth, 'They aren't listening!'
"Sorry about my weird class, just hang in there." Naruto said to the guide and she blink at him.
"This Kinkaku temple was built by Muromachi Bakufus Third Great Shogun, lord Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, speaking of lord Yoshimitsu, there is a famous anime that he is portrayed in, does anyone know which one?" Ryouko asked the students as they think about it, 'A quiz! You ca't leave a quiz unanswered, right!?'
"Hm…" Shisuto touched his glasses dramatically as he indirectly catch the guide's attention, "So even a building of pure gold pales in comparison to my beauty…"
'What's with this kid?' The guide sweatdropped before Najimi gave her a answer, "Wrong." She turned back to see the narcissist pulling his shirt open to two tourists and they flee from what appear to be a pervert.
"Narpo four." Chuushaku said, "You think everyone wants a picture of you."
'What's with these two…?' Ryouko stared bewilderedly at the teenagers.
"I'm sorry about them." Naruto sighed wearily, "And it's Ikkyuu-san."
"Eh, that's right." The guide blinked at him again.
"Here is the West Hongan temple, head temple of the Hongan school of new Buddhism." Ryouko gestured to the said place, "It was made by its monks, and sometimes served as a court. Inside is one of the national treasures, the Hiunkaku, and it, alongside Kinkaku and Ginkaku, are called the three Kyoutou's structures and…" She turned around to see most bored students, 'And they don't caaaaare!'
"Komi-san, Naruto-kun, look at what they're selling over there!" Omoharu ran over to the said teenagers in a shinsengumi costume set with wooden sword.
"You already bought something?" Naruto sweatdropped at her, "Do you know you have to carry them the whole way?"
"Ah yes, the West Hongan temple's drum tower has for a time served as Shinsengumi's military quarters, from the great Shimabara gate to Sumiya, many soilders wearing that coat passed to reach the Mibu temple." Ryouko said.
"It's been a long time, Kondou-san." The chuunibyou said to the beauty.
'Wha…?!' The guide stared at her puzzlingly before she look around to see that a high priest was taking a selfie with Najimi, Himiko kept eating foods all day and she notice that someone was missing. 'Wait, who is missing…'
"Kaede, please don't wander off." Naruto led the carefree girl back to the group then look to his guide, "Please carry on."
"Maam, bath…" Ai said to the guide, confusing her farther. The delinquent have a stomachache.
By the time they get back to the bus, Ryouko feel so exhausted with this class before she speak again. "Ah! Everyone, if you'd look to your left you can see Kyamo river…" She realize it's Kamo river, 'Aaaaw come on!' She looked back to her tourists with a sigh, 'Well, it's fine…It's not like they listening to anything I'm saying…' "This place is…Haa…Famous for how when couples come…They'd all sit…" She noticed that Naruto and Shouko was listening to her together as they look out at the window, "Evenly spaced between each other…From spring till summer, a platform would be raised over the river so that you can see a truly elegant scenery." She smiled brightly, "Everyone, you should definitely come visit Kyoto again."
Ryouko smiled when both Nene and Naruto pulled Najimi's hairs back to stop her from trying to jump from the Kiyomizu's stage.
The guide sweatdropped when Ren lean back to drink the love waterfall directly at Ototwa Falls before Naruto lightly chop her throat to stop her, not caring if the stalker was coughing roughly with heavy blush.
After a while, Ryouko was watching the students exploring the place until she notice that Naruto and Shouko was missing from the surrounding and she look around until she find them standing in front of a building. "Hmm, interesting." Naruto muttered to himself as Shouko slowly approach him from behind until he notice her, "Oh, hey, Shouko."
"Were you looking at the interlocking beams?" Shouko asked.
"Yeah." He replied, "It seems this building was made without using a single nail." He pointed the info out from the guidebook, "It's pretty amazing how they could build something this large on a cliff and it last this long without collapsed even when thousands of people climb daily." He paused, "Sorry, I ramble something, didn't I?"
"I like it." The beauty replied.
"…Eh?" Naruto can't help but to blush.
"I meant the old buiidings!" Shouko shield her burning face from him with her notebook.
"I-It's okay." He muttered.
'Just get married already.' Ryouko stared at the blushing teenagers.
"It's an inn!" Najimi shouted when the class reaches a luxury inn as the sun start to set and they enter the building.
"Welcome, I hope you have a nice trip coming here." A older hostess greeted the students.
"It's a hostess!" The lavender-haired girl cried out loudly.
"See you later." Naruto raised his hand to the beauty as she waved back, the boys and girls are divided by a floor. The blonde went straight to the boys' bedroom to drop his stuff off so he can take a bath first before the gender change then turn in for the night.
The next day, the teacher looks around at her students to make sure that everyone are here. "Today you are free to go wherever you want, but don't lose sight of your group. We are heading to our next hotel at six o'clock." Naruto join his assigned group then look over to see Shouko walking stiffly with her stiffen groupmates in a weird way.
'Now I'm more worried…' The blonde sweatdropped before he turn to his group, "Soooo…Where do you guys want to go to first?"
"Fufu, I'm so beautiful in early morning…" Shisuto run hand across his hair as he look into the shop's window to admire his reflection and Chuushaku just stand there staring.
"…Want breakfast at nearby restaurant?" Naruto's sweatdrop enlarged and the expressionless boy give him a thumb-up before the group head to a restaurant for a breakfast then explore few places from Ponto-cho street to Toei Uzumasa Eigamura. In other words, it was a peaceful and sanity day for Naruto, despite the fact that Shisuto won't stop photobombing some tourists with ridiculous poses.
On the last day of the field trip, the students were racing to the train before it can leave. "The train's gonna leave!" Najimi shouted, "RUN FOR ITTT!" They managed to board the train in time…With one wail.
"DARKNESS KIKUICHIMONJI!" Omoharu screamed in horror when she discover that she dropped her wooden sword on the platform, she will later get it back via the mail after her parents called the station. Her group bring the sulking chuunibyou to her seat as everyone sit down to unwind and socializing a bit.
"How's matcha anpone taste?" Naruto asked the expressionless boy next to him and Chuushaku gave him a thumb-up, signifying the snacks to be good.
"In short time, Naruto get closer with his only male friends." Chuushaku said as the blonde sweatdropped. Honestly, this guy may be quirky and quiet but he's pretty sane and not a bad guy compare to most students in his class.
"Naruto-kun, Naruto-kun!" The said boy looked up to Mikuni and Ayami as the girl with headband shouted, "Komi-san is being attacked by villains over there!"
"Naruto-kun!" Mikuni shouted, "Please go save her!"
"Wha…?" Naruto get up with a raised eyebrow as he went to check on Shouko, "Are you ok…" He become confused when he discovered that the beauty was sleeping and he look back to two smug-smirking girls, the glasses-wearing girl was sitting in his seat. '…I guess I have to sit here for a while until they come back.' He sit down next to the sleeping beauty and before he know it, Shouko tilt to one side until her head lean onto his shoulder as he glance down at her sleeping face. Naruto carefully take the magazine out to not disrupt her sleep and read it for a while until he feel her stirring before his head turn to groggily beauty. "Morning, sleepyhead." Shouko stare at him for few moments then pat his shoulder few time before her face become red, "Hm?"
"How long were you there!?" Shouko asked with notebook over her deep-red face.
"About few minutes." He replied.
"I'm so sorry." The beauty turned her face away from him so she can wipe her mouth, making sure there's no drool.
"It's okay." Naruto waved it off as they sit in silence for few moments, "Where did you go during your free time?"
"We went to Osaka's USJ, Nara, and Futomaki Movie village." Shouko wrote as the blonde blink to himself, her group have move around so much in one day. "Do you want to see our pictures?" He nodded as she take her flipphone out to show him the pictures, "This was inside the train enroute to Osaka." She scrolled through many pictures.
"There're so many people, did you manage to get on the rides right away?" The blonde asked.
"Katou brought fast passes."
"I see." He noticed a picture of the beauty's group eat some foods, "What were you eating here?" He asked because he doesn't realize the foods.
"That was…I wonder what it was." Shouko shrugged and he looked at another picture.
"Oh, it's takoyaki." Naruto said, "It looks delicious."
"It was so soft and delicious." She wrote and they kept looking at more photos, commenting and replying to some pictures. There were even some pictures that Shouko don't know what she have taken and Naruto point out how cute she look in a Maiko costume, which flustered the blushing beauty as she tried to stop him from looking at it too long.
"Did you have fun?" He asked as the blushing beauty nodded, "That's go…"
"HEY, WHATCHA LOOKIN' AT?" Najimi popped up behind the seats then she crawl over the headrest to claim the empty seat, "OH, YOU HAVE A SEAT OPEN! LUCKY! IMMA SIT HERE!"
"Hey, don't come over like that, people can see your underwear." Naruto scolded the grinning lavender-haired girl and they continue to look at Shouko's pictures, chatting all the way to their home station.
After a short break, the school resumed and Shouko have no idea how she can greet her former groupmates. She looks around the classroom to see that some people, whom have grouped together, have get along and she went though some emotions before she clenched her hands with a puff, whatever happens happens…Only to stay still with trembling legs. Naruto have been watching her for a bit before he get up to give her a gentle nudge on back, "Go for it, Shouko." The beauty glance over her shoulder before she slowly approach Mikuni.
"Komi-san?" Mikuni was first to speak, "Eerr…Goo…"
"Good morning." Shouko thrust her notebook out toward.
"…Fufu." The glass-wearing girl giggled, "You're honestly really funny. You talk with a notebook." The beauty slightly jumped, "Good morning, Komi-san."
"Mornin'!" Ayami jogged up to their sides with a smile as the girls chatting and the blonde smile at the scene.
"Heeey, wanna play Eraser Toppling?" Najimi ran over to him with wide grin.
"No." Naruto sighed but it fall upon deaf ears as the lavender-haired girl use his desk for 'battlefield' between three girls, which all disqualified due to out of bound flicks.
"So, Komi-san, what are you gonna do for Valentines?" Nene asked the said beauty and she paused for a moment.
"I haven't really decided on anything yet." Shouko wrote.
"You paused for a bit there." The slender girl pointed out, "Anyway, wanna come make some chocolate at my place today? Every year I make some for my family. So while I'm at it, I might as well invite some friends to make them together since that'd be more fun, right?" The beauty nod once, "'Lright! Then it's decided."
"Can I coooome toooo?" Kaede asked.
"Sure, come on over." Nene replied before she turn to Naruto with a cheeky grin, "Sorry, Naruto-kun. Today is a girl's night."
"Yeah, I know." Naruto rolled his eyes at her, it's not like he want to come over to make chocolates. The school day carries on normally without any events.
It's Valentine's Day and most male students were very anxious about it since they want to get a chocolate from a girl. "Morning, Shouko." Naruto greeted the silent girl as she returned his greeting with a nod and he take his seat, waiting for the class to start.
"GOOD HELLOOOO!" Najimi entered, "Happy Valentine's!" She gave out a small chocolate piece to the beauty, "Here, Komi, friend choco!" Shouko gave her a bag of chocolate, "Wow! You made these yourself?" She nodded, "Thanks!" The lavender-haired girl turned to Naruto with a piece of chocolate bar in her mouth, "Here, hun, is your love chocolate but you better take it with your mouth. Plant a big wet smo…"
"Thank." Naruto broke the bar, leaving a small piece behind in Najimi's mouth.
"Awww, tease!" The lavender-haired girl pouted at him.
"Komi-san, Naruto-kun!" Ren appeared with wide wave, "Good morninggggg!" She sway her hips with rubbing hands, "Ufufu, you see…I made a chocolate for Komi and Naruto-kun!" She handed two boxes to her crushes, "Please accept it!" The teenagers stared at the chocolate heads of Ren with different expressions, "N-Now eat it…" She drooled lewdly, "My face…Lick and suck and eat me…" Naruto stare at her for a moment before he break the chocolate faces into pieces with his bare hand until there's no trace of the face features. "A-A-AH! I worked all night to make it for you and you broke it so heartless…" She blushed, "S-S-So hot!"
"You have a loose screw somewhere in there." Naruto grumbled as Shouko gave the stalker a bag of chocolates and Ren pass out on spot. The beauty gets up and starts to pass the friend chocolates out to her friends, mostly girls.
"Naruto, here." Ai put a bag of chocolates on his desk then walk away swiftly, 'Giving it is so embarrassing but I did it! I'm more hardliner! W-Will Naruto-kun give me some on White's Day?'
"Thank, Katai." He called out.
"Um, here you go…" Omoharu bashfully pass a small piece of chocolate to him then hurriedly walk away before he can thank her.
"Hey, Naruto, here're the candies." Amami gave him a small bag of chocolates and he receive some from Nene, Kaede, Himiko, Nokoko, Makeru and Akako.
"What does that bastard have what we don't have?!" The boy with combed-back hair cried out loudly as Mikuni and Ayami gave the blonde a friend chocolate, Shouko had introduced each other early and they have talk once in a while.
'I don't know, be nice, less player and more sane.' Naruto said sarcastically in his head, not caring if some boys were staring at him enviously. Can't they see most of it are friend candies?! Shouko return to her desk, "Finished passing friend chocolates out to the girls?" She hesitated for a second before giving him a nod and they went through their classes as usual.
Shouko and Naruto walk together after Najimi bid them bye at her stop and the blonde notice the beauty's sneak glances but he didn't call it out. "I'm going this way, see you later." Naruto pointed to right path as the beauty give him a good-bye bow and they walk down their own paths until he hear something.
"Na…Naruto-kun!" He turned to face Shouko.
"What's up?" The blonde asked and the beauty reach inside her bag, pause for a second before she take out an bag of chocolates then hold it out to him.
"…H…" Shouko blushed, "Here."
"For me?" Naruto take it from her with a smile, "Thanks, it make me happier." The blushing beauty jerk her head back then waving her bag up and down while covering her face.
"…T…" She muttered timidly, "…That chocolate…Was the best…One…Of…The batch…And…" She halt as her face burn bright red with steams before she suddenly sprint away from him and the blonde tilt his head with few blinks then he open the bag with a shrug, taking one candy out to eat it.
"Tasty, huh." He commented.
"Morning, Shouko." Naruto greeted the said girl the very next day as the beauty take her seat with hard stare, "Oh, the chocolates you made. They were delicious, thank you…" Shouko's face becomes atomic red before she race out of the classroom out of embarrassment, "EH? SHOUKO?!" He has to chase after her and calm her down so they can get back to the class before it start.
And that end the sixth chapter of CIHNL!
We just have a field trip and a holiday, which seems to be pretty normal and that's it.
How will the rest of the school year go for everyone? Who will show up to befriend Naruto and Shouko? How will things turn out with everyone? What'll happen next? Let's find out in next chapter!
Anyway, I think that's all I can say for now. Thank you for your time to read it.
Please leave reviews and feedback here. The flames will be kicked out.
