Part 2 - The New Student
"God, please protect me from the devil. Let his power be diminished. I don't want to belong to him. And also please bless Sakuma and me together…" What wrong with me? I keep saying those nonsense prayers; I guess God must be angry with me now.
"Ano…Shindou san, I notice that you have been praying sincerely, so I am wondering if I should tell you this, umm…actually this is nothing at all…but if I don't say it out hmmm…" The perfectly shy brunette bishounen looked slightly embarrassed.
"Nani?" Was the only word that had come out of Shuichi's mouth. This can't be happening. Sakuma is going to express his love to me now? Is this the power of the devil? "Wait, Sakuma san, I think there must be a misunderstanding." The pink haired cutie tried to explain frantically.
"No, this is not a misunderstanding." Sakuma said and gripped Shuichi's hand, staring hard into his purple orbs.
"No, please don't say anymore." Shuichi blushed hotly. Is he going to say he love me?
"Class is going to start in 5 minutes time, so please hurry along." Sakuma finally said it all out. "It is quite hard to tell you just now when I see you so deep in your prayers."
Huh? How can this thing be happening to me early in the morning? Shuichi hung his head in defeat.
"Hurry up. So what class are you in? You belong to a junior class right?" Sakuma asked cheerfully. "Did you want to tell me something just now?"
"Oh, it's nothing at all. See you." Shuichi answered disappointedly and walked off in a rush leaving Sakuma in bemusement.
------------------
"Yeah! He did not express his love. Thank kami-sama. I am safe…ya sa…fe…" Shuichi's voice trailed off as he collected his thoughts on what happened just now. Hurry up. So what class are you in? You belong to a junior class right? "He doesn't even remember that I am in the same year as him. He doesn't even take noticed of me. I don't really exist in his world at all."
"So what happened? Your lover boy…" A dark shadow with black wings apparated out of thin air said.
I am happy if he talk to me…he even kiss me on my forehead…but then he doesn't even remember which year am I. Or maybe this is all one side of my feelings? I feel so miserable... I feel like an idiot for doing so…Deep in his thoughts, Shuichi did not realize that a hand was moving towards his shoulders. The hand grabbed him by the shoulder and startled him, which forced him to turn around. "You…" The hand's owner paused when he saw glimmers of tears at the corner of the boy's eyes.
"I am protected by the mighty God. I don't care if it is white magic or black magic but Sakuma's heart will never be mine." Shuichi cried out. Enough is enough. I had enough.
"Is that so? You are protected by God himself." Satan wiped away the tears threatening to fall out of those beautiful violet eyes and licked it. "We shall see. This is getting very interesting now. I wonder why did my magic fails? Don't worry, I will definitely keep to my side of pact and let you be together with Sakuma. Then you shall keep yours. But before that, your determination must be there too." With that, the dark prince disappeared.
"Wait…" Shuichi called out but there was only the winds answering his call. Why is it that I have this feeling that I am into something not good? Why did my heart skip a beat when he wiped my tears? This feeling…
------------------
"Yosh. Today is another new semester. I must work harder." Shuichi said, encouraging himself before he stepped into his new class. "Ohayoo, minna-san." He greeted enthusiastically. As he walked into the class, he saw a familiar figure crowded by a group of people. Oh yes, I just remebered. I am in the same class as Sakuma this semester.
"Ohayoo, Shindou san. We are classmates now. Dozo yoroshiku." Sakuma gave Shuichi a smile that weakened his knees. "And this is Kuma-chan. Na no da. Dozo yoroshiku." The brown haired lad popped out a pink soft toy from behind and introduced.
No wonder he is so popular. He looks so cute with that pink stuffed toy.
"Hai. Dozo yoroshiku." The pink haired youth replied and shook his crush's hand. Just when I was about to give up, he appears in front of me again. Indulging in his own happy world, Shuichi did not notice some jealousy glares from the corner of the classroom emitting out from a group of Sakuma's admirers.
"Okay, class, there is a new student in our class this semester. Due to an illness, he had been in hospital for almost 2 years. Now he has recovered and although he is 2 year older than us, I hope you all will get along well with him. He is a cousin of Shindou Shuichi." The class form teacher introduced a tall, athletic built, good-looking student with a pair of amber eyes that no one could resist.
Running his fingers through his flaxen hair, the bishounen bowed charmingly and said, "I am Yuki Eiri. Doozo yoroshiku."
"Liar! He is my cousin? Since when do I have a cousin so good-looking?" The just awoken dreaming beauty asked in bewilderment.
"Didn't you tell us before that you got a cousin that was in hospital for a long time?" A black haired girl next to Shuichi replied.
"Yes. You even told us that you visit him once every two weeks." Another said.
"I am back, cousin." The blonde haired lad said, looking into Shuichi eyes making him blushed slightly.
This voice, the hair and those irresistible amber eyes… don't tell me… he is Satan? Why did Satan become my cousin? Arrggg… this is getting me confused.
------------------
"Okay, that's all for today. Class ended." The teacher announced and walked off.
"So are you feeling better now?" A red haired girl asked her new classmate, blushing hotly as her subject of admiration looked up.
"What a pity that we can't visit you when you are in hospital." Another blue-haired said.
Even if he is my cousin, I will not bring him out so often. It is like honey attracting too many bees. Shuichi stared and shook his head at the blonde youth smiling and talking to a group of girls crowding around desk. He can smile?
"Wait." Shuichi stood up form his seat and slammed his hands on the desk. "He is not my cousin. He is…" Before he could finish, a slight tap on his left shoulder interrupted him. It seem like Satan or Yuki now had collapsed leaning onto Shuichi's shoulder.
"Are you going to tell them that I am the Satan? Do you think they will believe when they are all under my memory block spell? Think twice." The prince of darkness whispered into Shuichi's ears before making himself stand up. "It's alright. I am just not use to too much walking." Yuki waved and explained to the group of worried girls.
What have I got myself into?
Yes, Shuichi had got himself in a lot of trouble as the story continued. Stay tune to find out more...
In the next chapter, guess what trouble did Hiro and Shuichi had got themselves withtheir tirgger happy teacher hehe...
Till then...
