Chapter 11: The love of a couple

There were times Yuuji had really wondered if Shouko had loved him ever since they were kids. Tasing your lover to force him to go with a date with you isn't what one will do. That also applies to handcuffing him and forcing him to wear a dog costume. Of course, Shouko can be cute at times too. There were times that Yuuji wondered if he was too strict. There were times where he really wondered how he should spend the rest of his life with Shouko. There were also times when Yuuji really wanted to hug Shouko and comfort her but his ego didn't allow it. Unfortunately, there were also times when…

"There are times when I really wonder if you really like me as a man!" Yuuji shouted at Shouko. "Are you really sure you love me?" Yuuji demanded an answer.

"Y… Yuuji… you are embarrassing me…" Shouko flushed deep red and she touched both her cheeks in embarrassment.

"Answer the question!"

"Do I really have to do that?" Shouko gazed lovingly at Yuuji.

"Yes." Shouko's gaze did not break Yuuji's determination to get an answer from her.

"Well, of course I do." Shouko blushed. "I love you. I love you so much."

"All right…" Yuuji sighed. "Now Shouko, would you please release this person that you love so much. The ropes are really hurting him."

"Why? I love Yuuji so much that I would bind him close to me." Shouko made her point.

"So that's why I'm so tightly bounded!" Yuuji shouted. He was tied up and immobilized. "I really do think that you love me as an object or animal! Definitely not as a man!"

"Don't worry; we'll be even more tightly bounded when we are officially husband and wife." Shouko blushed.

"I'm not bounded enough? Are you a demon?" Yuuji yelled.

"Oh, you are so embarrassed…"

"LIKE HELL I AM!"

"Now I'm embarrassed."

"WHY ARE YOU?"

"Now, Yuuji… change." Shouko took out the costume she had specially tailored for Yuuji.

"Guh!" Yuuji gritted his teeth.

"Change…"

Grit! Blood started flowing from his gum.

"Are you sure about that, Shouko?" Yuuji decided to talk to Shouko to quench her burning desire. "Calm down and we'll discuss about this, all right?"

"Nope. I'm really calm. Yuuji should be the one calming down."

"How can I calm down when you pull that costume out?" Yuuji roared.

"… Yuuji, it's just a yukata…" Shouko spread the yukata out.

"That's not it!" Yuuji replied. "What I'm worried about is the set of make up beside it!"

"Yuuji…" Shouko started. "Do you want to wear the yukata?"

"No."

"… How about cross-dressing?"

"NO!"

"…Yuuji…"

"NO! Not in a billion chances!" Yuuji interrupted.

"Do you want to continue living?" Shouko threatened.

"Yes!" Yuuji hurriedly replied. "But I don't want to wear that yukata!"

"… Yuuji… So you wanted to see me change into the yukata..." Shouko blushed as she pulled the lower tip of her dress up.

"Please make me cross-dress instead!"

"…"

"WHY DO YOU LOOK SO SAD? JUST PASS ME THE DARN YUKATA AND I'LL CHANGE… WAIT! THERE IS NO NEED FOR YOUR HELP!"

"Darn it…" Yuuji had a terrible headache. So I'm in this position… What have I done? He was waiting for Kouta, who was performing to finish his song.

"Muttsulini… You have a very good disguise…"

Very soon, applause was heard and Yuuji knew that that was his call to prepare to get on stage.

"…" Yuuji put on his wig. He was going to be scarred a second time. This level of humiliation is too much!

Kouta appeared, looking down.

"Darn it, Muttsulini! You had it easy!" Yuuji said, trembling.

"Ah… Who are you?" Yuuji heard as he prepared to get onto the stage.

"I'm just someone that will assist you in the execution of Yoshii Akihisa after this." Yuuji replied.

The 2 of them looked at each other. Their pride as a man greatly reduced.

"… Good luck…" Kouta went off.

"I need it…" Yuuji went up to the stage.

"Hello, my name is Huan Shunli desu!" A girl with red hair exclaimed as she stepped up on stage.

Huan Shunli? Isn't that… Akihisa pondered about the name. She have a large frame… Hold on! Isn't that…?

"Hentai!" Akihisa's thoughts were interrupted by someone in the crowd. "Isn't that Sakamoto Yuuji?"

"Pervert!"

"Freak!"

"Hentai!"

The audience was jeering at Yuuji. They had immediately identified his identity. It was impossible to not notice him when he was the only one with a large physique.

"I'm going to puke…"

"I've lost every little respect for him…"

"No wonder both Yoshii and Sakamoto are always together. Sakamoto was always clinging onto him!"

Chatter chatter. Insults and more insults were heard. It's wrong! It's totally a wrong choice for Sakamoto to request this celebration! My reputation as a class representative… it is totally ruined… Shouko…

"What problems do you have?" An icy tone was heard.

The audience immediately turned quite.

Kirishima Shouko was standing and looking at the audience from the stage. She had stood up, walked to the stage and stood beside her beloved.

"Can't you all realize he is my husband?"

"Arrghhhhh! Kill!" The FFF inquisition started sharpening their torture equipment.

"Unforgivable!"

"Darn it, Shouko! Get off the stage!" Yuuji panicked.

"Sing… and I'll get off." Shouko looked into Yuuji eyes.

"Fine! Just stop those guys from attacking me!" Yuuji pleaded. Shouko was the only person he would plead.

"All right, sing well."

"Darn it, you guys! Shut up or I'll send all of you to the remedial class with Ironman!" Yuuji took off his wig and roared.

The music played as Shouko got off the stage. The FFF inquisition was quiet. They knew that Yuuji's score was enough to send them a one-way trip to hell.

Baka to Koshitsu to Kodoku Meshi (Idiots and private room and lonely rice)

Performed by Milktub

Arrangement by Kyoichi Miyazaki

I'm eating egg over rice,

Here all by myself,

In the bathroom this early afternoon.

Loneliness is my meal's spice.

Yuuji had selected this song in a hurry. This song actually allows him to express his inner feelings. Especially the feelings he had hidden during elementary school. The days he had with Shouko. He was initially alone, always having himself as a companion and leading a pretty normal lifestyle. It all when Shouko approached him when he was having his lunch, egg over rice…

An accident occurs,

I sense a disturbing smell.

The guy next to me was eating a ready-made curry.

Seriously?

Akihisa understood these lyrics pretty well. He was the guy eating the ready-made curry. With his passion, he had always helped others when they are in need. Of course, even Yuuji when he is in trouble. It was because of an accident that started a strong friendship between them. Disturbing smell… Am I always this disgusting to Yuuji?

Just hold on for a second!

It is bad manners

To eat curry in the bathroom!

That's an excuse. Shouko had already seen through Yuuji. She appeared in Yuuji's life then. At that point of time, Yuuji ignored her and she had to use extreme lines to get his attention. It's as though she was the one eating curry and Yuuji wanted her gone by using the line "It is bad manners" as an excuse.

I want to protect my loneliness

Because I have nothing else.

I've lost everything and now I'm even losing this private space.

….

That was the feeling Yuuji had when he was in elementary school. Losing everything as he was way too smart. He can't even properly make friends with his classmates. His intelligence had hurt many people around and thus no one wanted to be his friend. It's was then when he became lonely. He was determined to have an isolated world for himself. Unfortunately for him, Shouko caused him to lose the private space he had built for himself.

I gathered my courage and hit the wall

And looked into the stall beside mine,

Only to find my other self that was sitting there.

I was hiding from myself; my true personality and feelings. Yuuji knew it. He wanted friends to laugh with, to fight with and to play with. He could do that. He found that side of himself when he entered Fumizuki Academy.

I'm eating egg over rice,

Until a few minutes ago.

It is soggy now.

I have to eat fast.

It was true that it's been long since elementary school. Yuuji's feelings had disappeared. The love he once had faintly lingered in him. However, that wasn't true for Shouko. She had to capture Yuuji's heart and quickly capture it.

For some reason, I would love

People who are lonely.

It's impossible to agree with me now but I understand.

Maybe that's why I approached Yuuji. Shouko continued staring at Yuuji. Maybe I needed a little love right then. As for why Yuuji decided to choose this song… he refused to tell me the reason.

A unique smell sticks onto my nose.

Why would

I calm down tremendously?

That certain idiot… Seeing him makes me calm down. Both irritating and refreshing at the same time. Just what kind of power does he possess?

I love this loneliness.

As it love me.

I can't tell this bitter secret to my friends or anyone.

Maybe that's his reason. Sakamoto-kun always seems quiet. Though he always says that his future will be ruined if he married Shouko, he didn't really mention why. Aiko had a sudden thought. There must be a reason. The reason may be his bitter secret. Either that or he really love being alone.

Even though the heart is strong,

The body was crying.

My face had tears that spilled like egg-white

Just then in a swift action. Shouko immediately step onto the stage, holding on to her own microphone. Her lips separated and a clear beautiful voice was heard.

I want to protect this loneliness

Because there's nothing else left.

I've lost everything including this space.

Both Yuuji and the audience were shocked. Why would Kirishima step up at such a time? Just then, FFF had to leak out an even stronger killing intent.

In reality, in this room,

I've raised a devil.

Disaster charged us to the end of this world.

Before he knew it, Akihisa was singing too, "La la la la". He must support his friend, since he was the one that suggested this contest. As the atmosphere built up, Shouko sang out the last part of the song with Yuuji.

Eating rice in a private room.

I shouted in the center of the toilet,

"I will not betray myself!"

The music continued on and Yuuji bowed. It wasn't for thanking the audience; it was to have the FFF inquisition bestow a lighter punishment for him.

"Yuuji, that was very good…" Shouko commented as she blushed.

"Sakamoto-kun, I guess you will not betray yourself after singing this song, am I right?"Aiko teased.

Yuuji nodded his head.

"Yuuji… you are a hopeless pervert…" Akihisa commented. "But I like the song. You are on par with Tsuchiya-san, I'll have a hard time choosing the better singer between the both of you!"

"All right! Thank you, Sakamoto-kun!" Mizuki thanked. Since his identity was exposed, there was no need to use the name Huan Shunli anymore. "Next up…"

"It's my turn." Yuuko softly whispered. "It's finally my turn…" She repeated. "I… am… so… dead." She stepped up the steps to her battle field.

"Our much awaited contestant, Kinoshita…" Mizuki started as the next contestant went up.

"Hideyoshi!" The crowd shouted, burning with enthusiasm.

"…Yuuko!" Himeji continued, ignoring the audiences' expectations.

Unexpectedly, the crowd cheered just as loud. The cheers went even louder when they saw Yuuko in her cute costume. With that Yuuko started getting nervous.

"He…hello…" Yuuko shyly greeted. She was in no position to shout at the F class idiots…

"Someone…save me…" Yuuko quietly cried out in a voice that can't be heard as the crowd continued cheering. Her sense of rhythm was going to fail her.

All right! I've gotten this chapter out! It's going to be Yuuko's turn! Is she going to sing despite her weakness? You will know in the next chapters of 'The Ultimate Idiot'! Please do drop in a review! Till next chapter, see you! Let's wait for it!
