I did say I would use all! All the characters anyone has ever mentioned to me! And is a lot! But I love how everyone offered their favorite characters, just so you know, they are a ton. Well up to work! Also my apologies for taking so long!

Chapter 2: How does this look? Release him! Master!

Junko Enoshima was more than just the Ultimate Fashionista. She was more than just a pretty face, she also could be said to be the Ultimate Analyst. She could review information, catch details and in general, understand rather quickly. So, when she understood thanks to the AI Fujisaki had in his room that Makoto Naegi was the one she wanted to meet with… she knew she needed to run fast.

If they were in the cafeteria, chances were that the tour through the school was about to end. And she didn't hear anything about the dorms, so chances were Naegi would go back to his home and come later…

She had already gone more than enough time without knowing him. She needed to spend time with him. To thank him. To show him how much he meant to her…

I still feel is not worth it you know? I mean, I know how things will go. What's so fun of that? Nothing is new. Do you get what I mean?

Not really. I have never been able to know what will happen. Whenever I think I know, something happens and surprises me… so I think is the same for you. Maybe you just need to give it a chance for things to happen. And allow yourself to be surprised.

Allow myself to be surprised? That's a new one… you know, we have been chatting for a while now. And I never know what will happen to you or what you will say… I guess I am always getting something to be surprised about! Did your door fell off its hinges again?

I am happy to hear that! And well… the door didn't fell, but when I was going out a bike crashed and broke the door. Does that count?

Remembering that brought a smile to her face.

Because she had a lot of friends, and more often than not she could always tell what was happening on their days, but never with Naegi. Naegi was always fun. He never did the same thing, he might be average in his routine, but something happened, something surprised him, and he was honest with it.

He wasn't scared of admitting stuff such as he might have been scared by a dog coming out of a house, that he was amazed at seeing a rainbow after the rain took away his umbrella. How much he liked seeing news of Maizono… well, she could do without those. She once asked what he thought of a photo shoot of Junko Enoshima. Of course, she didn't tell him it was the same Junko asking such a thing.

His answer had been honest.

She looked cute. I like her style… is it weird to say that?

Not at all. Her style was likable by everyone! She was Junko Enoshima! And she would be lying if she said it didn't make her happy to know he liked her style. Truth is, few knew of the real Junko Enoshima. The girl below the makeup and the hair dye.

Did you ever hear the rumor that Junko Enoshima hair is not blonde?! Crazy right?

Oh, I am sure any hair color would look good on her though. I mean… she is cute.

Ah, that day her heart had a nice beat going. She knew how hard it was for Naegi to say that a girl was cute. He was the sort of boy who would get shy around girls, even more, if they were aggressive with their flirting… not that any girl had seemingly flirted with him. She would know about it!

Thinking it back, maybe she would be doing a favor to Fujisaki by presenting him to Naegi. Both could be good friends fast. Naegi was in a way like a universal piece. He fitted in the puzzles of everyone…

Hey, do you think… someone might get it? I mean, I feel that maybe no one will actually get what I want. What use is being around people if no one gets you?

Well… I don't know how they will react. But I know who you are! You are my friend! And I know you are smart and is obvious you know of fashion… but whatever happens, I want you to know you will never be alone! Because I am your friend and I will always be your friend!

That message had sealed the deal for her. Naegi had proved time after time he cared for her. He knew nothing of her really. He didn't know her name. Who she was. Or where did she live.

He only knew what they had shared through chatting. And yet… it was enough to get her. She needed him. She needed to meet with him. To tell jokes with him, to listen to music, to sit and chat, to do nothing and everything. She just needed to share her time with Naegi.

She had gone through life enough time without placing care of the important things in life. In her boredom, she had dismissed the presence of her sister. She had dismissed the efforts of others, so it was time to change that. To try to look at life through a more positive scope. To see the world through the same lenses that Naegi did.

To see the world for the wonders it had to offer. The same wonders she wanted to share with him.

If only she could find him!

"How hard is it to find someone in an almost empty school!"

In the end, she took a spin in the next hallway and ended up crashing. She fell over someone she was about to apologize with whoever she clashed when her worried became a smile.

"Naegi!"

Naegi had been surprised, to say the least. He was simply going around the hallways as his tour guide had been called by the headmaster. He told him to go around and roam around to familiarize himself with the school. And while going around he ended up clashing with someone. Said someone fell over him. Their hands on his chest and her legs at the sides of his torso.

He was surprised when he was met with the pretty face of Junko Enoshima. The ultimate fashionista was smiling at him. She seemed unfazed at their position and she was simply smiling brightly, needless to say, he was feeling embarrassed at the situation. Not every day he could say a pretty girl was so close to him.

"Ah! Enoshima!"

Almost immediately she placed one of her fingers at his lips making him immediately become totally red-faced of embarrassment.

"Junko! You can call me Junko. I mean, I would like us to be friends Makoto!"

She was smiling brightly looking at him. Her eyes were full of something that he couldn't pinpoint. With incredible ease she got up from their position and offered his hand to him.

"What do you say? We can be friends, right?"

She was smiling as her hand was extended. He took her hand and she helped him stand up with little to no problem. It was obvious that Junko wasn't weak even if she was slim. Still he smiled at her as he gave her an answer to the question she made.

"Sure, we can be friends!"

Junko smile was brighter if that was possible. She immediately was with a lot of glee at she held his hand. Her hold was tight, and it offered no chance of leaving.

"That's great Makoto!"

Junko was thinking that it had been easy. But once again, she also knew that becoming friends with Makoto Naegi wasn't hard. It seemed the only hard part was actually finding him. But now she had done exactly that, so she had all the time in the world. Well… sort of, it was around two, so she had more or less an hour… unless…

"Hey, Makoto! Want to see the roof? I bet you haven't seen it, believe me, is an awesome view!"

Without waiting for his answer, she threw herself running by holding his hand. Naegi had no other option but to follow her. Not that he minded, he was having fun.

As Naegi and Junko were going to the roof. A girl with a gloomy aura was sighing as she was seeing the running pair. She had seen the whole thing and sighed.

Touko Fukawa was not the kind of girl. Who looked for love or was jealous about it. People all the time were different from her… only her online friend understood her…

Touko Fukawa had seen the exchange between the new student and Junko Enoshima and found herself with a smile few would ever see her doing. She was imagining how would she act had the roles been reversed and she was on the floor as her loved one was in the top.

She quickly regained control on her emotions and noticed that the phone of the boy was on the floor. She decided to pick it up. She would hate losing her phone, even more losing the important messages in it.

Curiosity came to her when she saw the phone. Glitch screen and an old model. Still useful. She noticed the boy had the same chatting app as her. She smiled again remembering the many messages she had gotten from her friend.

The boy who had seemingly wormed his way in her heart. She had debated whether or not to reveal her feelings and her name to him. In the end, cowardice and insecurity had won against her feelings, and she had decided not sending the message. A decision she was now regretting.

What if she mentioned she was entering Hope Peak academy? Would he have tried his best to attend the school with her? Trying hard to do his best and make it share their lives…

Would such a scenario be possible? She was called the literary genius, but she didn't know if the boy she liked so much as to call it love was one with a talent that would let him in… wasn't there also a reserve course? Maybe she could help him get in….

She sighed as she looked at the phone.

She placed the phone in one of the pockets hidden in her long skirt before taking out her own phone and sending a message to her loved one.

I hope you are doing well… I know I have not sent you a message for a while… I was moving… sorry.

She pressed send, already expecting his common messages reassuring her that everything would go well. She was surprised when the phone she had pocketed away had vibrated. She took it out by curiosity. The curiosity that turned into a pleasant surprise seeing her own message appearing on the screen of the phone.

The boy she had seen was her loved one! The boy who often reassured her! The boy who had never failed to make her feel better! The boy…. The boy…. That Junko Enoshima had just assaulted and taken away to the roof!

She had to go up!

However, …

… How could she reach the roof?

Junko Enoshima was meanwhile sitting in a bench on the roof next with Makoto Naegi. The Ultimate Fashionista was smiling widely as she shared some stories of some photo shoots with him.

"I almost tripped! And I was surprised that the heel broke, luckily, they had spares for the photo shoot, but I was really surprised, I had never seen a heel break like that before."

Naegi chuckled. Mostly because Junko was expressing things clearly and moving her arms the whole time as someone who couldn't stay put. It seemed she was in a great mood.

He had no real way of knowing. But she was having an awesome time. She was chatting with the guy she had come to adore chatting with, and now she could do it in person!

"So, I shared my story, now is your turn to share! What is the weirdest thing that has happened to you."

He didn't know what to share, honestly, his life was full of moments that could be called the weirdest. In the end, he went with one of the most recent.

"Well, I was going to get breakfast, so I placed the bread in the toaster when I did that the toaster ended up throwing the bread over the fan… then it went spinning falling over my head and making me need a bath."

Junko laughed an honest laugh. Because she knew that one. He had told her that story before. But seeing it through the screen as text, and hearing it from the boy himself and seeing his embarrassed expression at remembering how bread fell over him in such a fashion made her laugh. Because she was sharing time with her best friend.

She couldn't contain her glee as she just let herself lean on his shoulder. Her pigtails making for a makeshift pillow falling on his shoulder. She was smiling with her eyes closed as she spoke simple words.

"Thanks Makoto…"

Naegi was stiff and embarrassed at the close contact. He was essentially next to one of the most famous celebrities in fashion. And, she was happy and thanking him. For what he didn't know. He was simply being a good friend and spending time with her in the roof.

Which he had to add, offered a great view of the city. Moreover, it was rather comfortable to be in a bench that was under the shade. It seemed the roof had been meant to become a spot for students to pass time in sheer relaxation.

In addition, the great view was a good focus for him to avoid thinking on how fluffy the pigtails of Junko were, or how nice she was with him.

However, he had thought about it again. Making the whole process of embarrassment return. He was surprised at how she didn't seem to move, but rather just stay relaxed.

"Junko, are you… sure you don't want to move?"

Said girl giggled.

"Don't tell me you are no enjoying having a pretty girl leaning next to you…. Or are you by chance embarrassed?"

She knew the answer to that already. But she still asked simply to tease him.

"I…I…. j-just thought you would prefer to relax in another way."

Said girl hummed in approval. She removed herself from his shoulder, offering him a small relief. But the relief went away as she let herself to fall on his lap. Her face looking directly at him as she had a bright smile on her face.

"This is definitely more comfortable."

Naegi was a mess, as she simply looked his expression of alarm. She was enjoying the whole experience. She knew she had been right. Makoto Naegi was worth it. It had been wonderful to try to find him. Because now she could enjoy the many expressions, he could do. Moreover, simply show him how important he was to her.

Though she had to admit, he seemed a little dense. She had been trying to make him get the hint. The hint being she was actually hoping to get a small kiss from him. She had tried getting in many poses. So far, the lucky student had shown a density comparable to the hardest of materials.

She was thinking that maybe she would need a more direct approach.

Not that she minded being forward. Makoto Naegi was worth it.

"Hey, Makoto… do you got someone you like?"

She might as well figure it out. She knew the answer, but no hurt in asking personally this time.

"Oh, well I like my parents, my sister…"

Of course, he would answer that! Did she need to bring fireworks and a light show to make him get it he meant if he liked her?! Or some other girl?

"I meant if you had someone you liked, you know? A girlfriend? A fiancee?"

At the question, Naegi seemed to go into serious thought. Did he actually like anyone? Like serious in love? Well….

He did find a lot of his friends as people who were interesting sure but as more than that? As to ponder a serious relationship? Well…

"I…I guess… I mean, I haven't got a girlfriend… but I guess I do wonder about it at times…"

Bingo.

She had struck gold. Her answer had been found. And he had answered. He was single.

Naegi found himself a blushing mess. And Junko just laughed before taking his hand and taking the road back down. She had her fun, but she also knew Naegi would probably be leaving soon; he came for the tour after all.

They walked together downstairs. Junko released Naegi hand for a moment to stretch herself.

"Hey, want to…"

She had planned to invite him to see a few funny videos in her room in the dorms before he left. Yet when she looked behind her he saw a distinctive lack of a cute boy in the hall.

"… Who?"

She thought about the people she knew were in the school already. Who could just come in a flash and take Naegi silently in the hall…

"…."

She cursed silently thinking that really. It could have been anyone curious enough.

Naegi found himself surprised at how fast someone took his hand and seemingly guided him into a room full of books. He was ushered into silence and found himself just simply doing it. He didn't feel he was in danger. But he did ggetsurprised when he was met with a girl with long braids, she wore a long skirt and she was holding something in her other hand.

She was seemingly looking at the floor but Naegi could see her eyes, they had a distinctive color that looked rather pretty. They seemed to be grey.

"I…I… my n-name is Touko… Touko Fukawa."

Naegi smiled at her and nodded.

"Hello Fukawa, I am Makoto Naegi."

Fukawa nodded and looked up at him. Naegi noticed her smile. It was a small smile. But Naegi felt it held too much meaning behind it. It made him smile too, feeling he had seen something few saw.

"… This… this is yours."

She brought up the object she was holding in her hand. It was his cellphone. When he saw him he felt his pockets around and got surprised he just took notice of it. He smiled brightly and thanked her.

"Thank you Fukawa! This cellphone has precious memories in it!"

He spoke loudly making Fukawa giggle who ushered for him to lower his voice.

"T-This is a library Naegi… follow me."

She felt confident. She was mostly a truly pessimistic being, seeing as how many others had called her ugly in the past, called her names and made her feel inferior. But not him. He never did that… ever since their chatting started he was simply supportive. He was nice. Moreover, she held feelings for him… feelings so big that they could fill the library of the school and many more.

She took Naegi to a section of the library with beanbags, she motioned for him to sit, and she did the same. She just let out a breath she didn't know she was holding. She was sharing time with her friend. The best friend. The one she had feelings of romance.

Her small smile showed again while Naegi simply watched her. They were in silence, but in no way was it uncomfortable. It was… peaceful. After the whole day, he was glad of having a peaceful moment of doing nothing. He loved all he did today. But he did appreciate a moment of peace.

"Fukawa… what is your talent?"

The said girl blinked at the question before answering.

"I…I am the u-ultimate writer."

Naegi smiled at her before speaking up.

"That's amazing! I bet your stories are great. What do you write about?"

At this, she seemed to try to hide in the beanbag as if she was hoping it would take her away.

"R-romance… is not the sort of stuff boys read…"

Naegi looked at her and took notice that she was a nervous person. Yet she also seemed to look happy at their conversation.

"I would like to read your work if you don't mind though."

Said girl looked red in the face before nodding at him.

She was feeling happy. Her idea of a conversation with Naegi was something more of an instinct, but it was working. And she felt like nothing could go bad.

That was when the lights went out. A scream came out from Touko Fukawa who fainted. When the light came back, Naegi immediately went to check on his friend. He found a surprise when he got met with red eyes and a long tongue.

"Hey! It's you! The lover boy!"

He found himself in a tight hug, he wasn't sure of what was going on, but he knew two things. First, this wasn't Fukawa. Well, she was Fukawa, but at the same time wasn't. Second, whoever this other side of Fukawa was, was crazy strong!

"Oh, I have been dying to know you! I have been seeing it all, the messages, the discovery of the phone! Kyehahaha!"

He was released from the hug as the girl made some distance between them to offer her hand.

"Shou! I am Touko, but better!"

If Naegi felt that Fukawa was shy, Shou was really the opposite. Still, he found himself just nodding and taking her hand. It felt weird to greet Fukawa a second time. But he felt he was actually greeting a different person. Touko Fukawa was… Touko Fukawa. In addition, Shou was her own being too.

"Pleasure to meet you Shou. But you should lower your voice, we are in a library."

The girl just laughed and extended her arms to the side.

"Please, look around, classes are not yet starting, and this place is empty! Only Fukawa gets in here all the time."

Her smile took a more predatory tone as she came and hugged him.

"But enough about Touko, what if we start to get to know each other?"

She released her tongue offering a lick at Naeg cheek. This made him shudder and get the other girl laughing.

"Kyehaha! Look at you! Getting all red in the face. I could eat you right now!"

Naegi looked at the red eyes and smiling face of the girl who seemingly was serious in her comments. He was surprised at the turn of events. Moments before he was relaxing with Fukawa who was giving him his cellphone back, having a moment of peace. The next the lights go out, and when they come back Fukawa is gone and Shou came to get him.

Before anything more could happen the door of the library opened, a girl in a maid uniform entered bowing at them. She was tall and thin, her hair of a sandy blonde color with tints of green, she smiled at both of them.

"I apologize, but I came to pick Naegi."

Kirumi Tojo. The ultimate Maid. She had no troubles really, she was always one to keep honing her skills to be able to serve her master at the best of her ability. And that she could do. Now, she always wished for a master like no other.

A master that could support her as she supports him. Something far more than just being a maid. But to be partners. Sharing everything, good, bad, riches, loses, to be able to share everything in a relationship so pure that few could imagine such a thing. Some might go as far as to call it love.

To her, it was much deeper.

And she had hoped to offer such a thing to someone whom surprisingly. She met through a chatting app as she hoped to learn more about said app. Who knew if her master could possibly need to use the app, so she would become an expert in it.

And through sheer luck. She ended up chatting with someone who simply offered solid advice.

And that is why I need to learn to master it.

Ah, but… wouldn't that be too hard on you? Surely you can get help.

I fail to see why I would need help when I am a maid.

Well… even a maid is a human right? And for humans is okay to ask for help right?

Something as simple as that had escaped her. And that forced her to look for more information. More advice.

Do you sometimes wonder that you may not be needed any longer?

Well, I have never felt something like that… but I believe that everyone is needed. Maybe we don't know how, but everyone is needed.

And so simply he had become a routine in her life.

Today I made tea.

Oh! What kind?

Early gray, I also made cookies.

You are always working hard right?

Of course. I must not fall to stagnation of my skills.

I am sure you will only keep getting better then…

Routine kept going and going. And then she took notice of something. She was chatting with him simply because she liked to do so. There was no order around to do it. And she found herself enjoying it. That soothing and simple online friend.

But she wanted more than an online friend. She wanted a master. And she wanted to be the maid that would get to serve such a master. The only one who she considered worthy of such a title... was the online friend she made.

So when she decided on that. She decided she would use on every contact of hers. She listed many people and detectives whom owed her one…

She asked for everyone. And yet, the answer came simply. One of her contacts found out the user online was a boy. One boy who seemingly had a phone with a broken screen. One who fitted all the information she knew about.

The detective managed to found the unlucky young man. But that hit of misfortune was a hit of luck to her. She took it as a sign that they were meant to be together. He needed a maid to keep him safe. And she needed a master who could soothe her and she could confide in.

So knowing who he was, the next part was to get close to him, seemingly luck and fate were on their side. For he won the raffle. He was entering the same school as her. And know, the actual hard part was finding him through the school. Yet she finally managed that. And that brought a big smile to her face.

"Eh?! What makes you think you can steal my little macarena?!"

Shou hugged Naegi tightly, showing her reluctance at releasing him. Yet Kirumi Tojo smile didn't falter.

"Oh, I am not stealing him, is just Kazukira is looking for him. He needs to fill a few papers for the school. I thought I could take him there…. Unless you want to fill the paperwork too?"

This made the other girl groan before releasing Naegi, kissing his cheek and winking at him.

"Stay safe cutie, I will look for you later!"

She left laughing while walking somewhere else. Where? Kirumi didn't care. She had her price. She walked and bowed in front of Naegi.

"Makoto Naegi. Is a pleasure to finally see you, I was hoping for this day."

She smiled so brightly that Naegi wasn't sure what he did to earn to see such a smile. The girl looked so pleased, so happy that Naegi didn't know what he did to make her smile.

"Oh, I apologize. I was so into my own happiness I forgot my task."

She got from her pocket in the long skirt she wore a handkerchief and seemingly cleaned his cheek, the spot where he had been kissed by Shou.

"My name is Kirumi Tojo. I am your maid from this moment until the end of our life's."

She kept her happy face, Naegi was confused. But he seemingly remembered the chats he had.

"Wait… you are, the girl who chatted with me? The maid? You were a real maid?"

She nodded, her smile never faltering while looking at him.

"Indeed. I did tell you about my daily routine. And you gave me advice on how to live my life, noticing how like a maid I was failing to see my own worth…"

She approached him and hugged him. Naegi felt embarrassed at how she was taller than him and she seemed to lean over him.

"A…ah… Kirumi… you don't need to serve me. We are friends, I mean, we became friends through chatting…"

He tried to make sense of the situation he was finding himself in. He had gotten out of a tight hug to find himself trapped in a softer one.

"Oh, Naegi…. I don't mind. To serve others is a maid's duty. Your happiness is the reason I serve…"

She simply sighed relaxing while keeping close to Naegi, yet she felt him breaking apart of her. Her face showing the sadness at the loss of the contact.

"Naegi?"

Naegi got red in the face, just by the way she mentioned his name. It was so soft, and Naegi found himself really feeling embarrassed at the girl act.

"I…I know you are a maid, I remember our chats… but what about your own happiness? I think you should focus on your own happiness…. Not only mine… you don't need to serve me."

She looked at him, her eyes carrying a sadness in them that was really making Naegi feel guilty.

"Naegi… I am a maid. I am expected to offer my services to my master…"

Naegi was confused at the sadness in her voice and her eyes. Not long ago she was beaming with happiness….

"Kirumi… I… I don't want to be your master."

This broke the heart of the maid. Yet she didn't cry only because she noticed Naegi was still speaking. She took notice of how the red-faced boy seemingly breathed, composing himself for what he was going to say.

"I… I want to be your friend. I… have always dreamed, of the idea of being friends with all the people I chatted with… and you are here. You don't need to be my maid. And I don't need to be your master. We can be friends. There is no need for us to be different from the other."

Naegi hoped that she was okay. That she didn't feel bad at his words…

His answer came in the form of being in a tight hug, with the tall girl leaning over him.

"K-Kirumi?!"

She breathed in before speaking. Naegi feeling her breathing.

"Friends get to hug each other… and friends get to spend time with each other… I don't mind serving you…"

Naegi sighed but returned the hug to her.

"You are not going to stop are you?"

This time she was the one to break the hug and smiled at Naegi.

"I am your maid. But I will be your friend too…"

She offered her arm to him.

"Well then, I was not lying saying Kazukira was looking for you, shall I escort you… master?"

Naegi sighed.

"You can call me Naegi… no need to call me master."

She smiled when Naegi accepted her arm, they walked linked together. As friends, yet what Naegi didn't manage to hear, where her words as they walked.

"Of course….. Master Naegi."

Cut!

Ah I missed this so much! I hope you all enjoyed the chapter! More coming soon! Happy to see ya all in this 2019.
