After everything thats happened, when did life get so dull? I thought, ignoring the substatute teacher as she talked about some random thing that didnt involve us. So, none of us liked her as she would go on about her previous days on being a modle, even though we proved her wrong and it was reviled that she worked at a construction sight.
"Sounds like a great idea." I over heard Ibuki whispering to Hanamura, gaining my attention as it was a conversation between Ibuki, Hanamura, Saionji, Mahiru and Kazuichi, confusing me on what they were talking about.
"We'll help any way we can." Mahiru whispered, nodding at them.
"I'll take care of the food." Hanamura said, with Ibuki's stomach rumbling.
"I'll handle the decorations." Saionji said, moving her hair around..
"I'll fill in everyone else about our plan, no one will miss out!" Kazuichi said, grinning at them.
'What could they be planning? Well, I'll eventually find out from Kazuichi.' I thought, laying my head down on the desk and passing out.
Later
Chiaki and I sat on the same bench, playing one of the few games that she would play with Hinata. We did this as there was no way for us to find him, even when I knew he was still somewhere on campus.
"Everything all right, Chiaki?" I asked, knowing something was going through her head.
"I was just thinking of Hinata, he's been gone for far too long." Chiaki said while turning her game off.
"Do you believe that he's truly gone?" I asked, wanting to know her answer.
"No, I don't." Chiaki replied with a frown as I turned off the game as well and placed it to the side.
"I know you cared for him, but what were you're feelings towards him?" I asked, with her looking me in the eyes.
"He was probably my best friend, and I would give anything to have him back." She said, making me smile as I hugged her, with her returning the hug.
"I know, and you're not the only one because I would even go as far as to give my life for him to be back." I said, with her pushing me away.
"Don't say that, because then I would lose you!" Chiaki yelled, shocking me at her tone of voice.
"Sorry, but its true." I said, looking away. "Hinata is still out there, I just know it." I said, standing up. "I'm going back to my room, I'll see you later." I said, walking away from her. "As long as it would make you happy, I'll bring him back." I muttered to my self as I narrowed my eyes.
Later
Walking into my room, I made my way over to the game system. I hadn't touched it ever since Hinata went missing, because it was his turn on it. Hearing a knock at the door, I turned back around and made my way over to it. "Who is it?" I asked as I placed my back against the door.
"Kazuichi, I was told to go around and tell everyone that were having a class meeting tomorrow." Kazuichi said, with me nodding.
"Alright, I'll be there." I said, closing my eyes as I heard him waking away to tell the others. "Great." I said, sliding down the door and facing the empty room. "Everything is resting on you, Yukizome." I said, hoping that she would find Hinata and bring this school down for everything that was going on.
The next day
Walking into the classroom, I noticed that it was decorated in a fall theme, confusing me on what was going on. "Shit, he's early!" Saionji said, with me looking at her and Mahiru. Mahiru was putting up decorations with Saionji, both looking at me with wide eyes.
"The hell?" I asked, looking around the classroom. "I thought we had a class meeting?" I asked, where I was then pushed forward, nearly knocking me off my feet. Looking back, I saw Nidai standing there with everyone else.
"Happy Thanksgiving!" He said, confusing me.
"The hell's Thanksgiving?" I asked, standing up straight to face them.
"Its an American Holiday, we know that you didn't do much Celebrating because of what happened to your parents, so we thought that we would give you a taste of each season!" Sonia said, looking at the guys as they placed the desks together like a big long table. "I hope it wasn't a waste of time?" She asked, with me watching the girls putting food onto the table, with me scratching my head.
"No...I'm just confused on what's going on." I said, looking back at her. "Do you know what we're suppose to do?" I asked, with her nodding.
"I read up on it so that we could do it correctly." She said, with me nodding. "The story behind it is pretty dark, want me to tell you-"
"Nope, you can tell Tanaka about that, I just want to know what were suppose to do." I said, closing the door before it could open.
"Well, because its a holiday from your country, you will be the one to cut the Turkey, but before that, we each tell everyone one thing that were thankful for! She explained, with me nodding. Also, You will be at the head of the table. She said, with me looking at said table that was now covered in a cloth.
"Who thought of this?" I asked, looking back at her.
"Ibuki did, she wanted something to do and she thought of doing this." She said, making me smile.
"Did she now." I said, looking over at said girl as she tried to sneak some food away, only to get caught by Mahiru. "Wonder what brought this on?" I asked, with her shrugging.
"We're all set!" Kuzuryu said, looking at us. "You ready?" He asked, looking at me.
"Sure...Why not." I said, walking over to the far side where the Turkey was. Looking at the others, they all took a seat, some looking over at me, and the others looking at the food, mainly Akane. "So, I guess this is where I talk." I said, picking up the knife. "Still, why is it that I'm the one cutting the Turkey, when it is all of our first Thanksgiving." I said, looking from the knife to them. "Why don't we all cut it as one?" I asked, with them looking at the other. "Because I'm thankful for everyone in this room, and would like for all of us to do this." I said, with Nidai standing up, gaining my attention.
"We understand where you're coming from, and I will join you." He said, walking over and stood next to me. One by one, they all stood up and walked over to me, each of them placing a hand on my hand, right where the handle of the knife was.
"Together!" We said, cutting the Turkey, with all of us cheering as we did.
