Chapter 8

Chiba has just woken up and already regretted it. Standing over him was his lovely friends: Mimura, Suguya, Itona, and Okajima.

Chiba throws an arm over his eyes "What are you guys doing here?"

Itona sits in Chiba's desk chair and yawns "I don't know. They dragged me out of bed and brought me here."

Mimura shrugs "Chiba you've been weird for the last few days. I know we're usually assholes but we're still worried for you bro?"

Chiba rolls onto his side and covers his head with the blanket "I'm fine. And you're always assholes."

Okajima pokes him "Oi… get up. Stop moping:"

Chiba "Let me sleep… this has to be a nightmare…"

Sugaya sighs and grabs his blanket taking it "Get up. We gotta talk."

Itona looks over 'I just wanted to work on my bots in peace…'

Chiba yawns fixing his bangs to cover his eyes as he sits up "I'm not even awake yet… what time is it…?"

Itona "9am."

Okajima "…Couldn't you have left your bangs…"

Chiba "No. There we talked. Now get out."

Sugaya flicks his forehead "Chiba this's important."

He throws himself back tired "Fine whatever. What do you want."

Mimura "You and Hayami are close friends right?"

Chiba nods "Yeah why?" He noticeably blushing "She's not here too right?!"

The other boys laugh

Sugaya "Chill it's just us."

Chiba sighs relieved "Then what is it?"

Itona pays close attention to Chiba's bloodlust 'Whenever Hayami is mentioned his bloodlust wavers'

Sugaya smirks 'Let's hope he doesn't kill us all for this…' "Do you like her?"

Chiba flinches turning away in an attempt to hide his blush "She's a good friend…"

Okajima sighs "Fine. If you don't like her then I guess there's no problem if I ask her out."

Chiba's bloodlust spikes sending a death glare "Do you even like her like her? Or are you just trying to piss me off."

Okajima smirks despite being afraid when he feels Chiba's death glare "Who knows. I mean she's really pretty and the whole tsundere thing is adorable. But…" he sighs and smiles slightly "She's more for you than me…"

Suguya sweat drops 'Woo...those are the right words to say'

Itona laughs to himself 'He sounds like he just spoke with her and told her to go after Chiba'

Mimura tries to joke off the tension "Anyone else think he is lying? Cause same."

Okajima snorts "And you wonder why we call you Mememura"

Mimura rolls his eyes "Just saying?"

Itona "Chiba why are you staying silent."

Chiba rubs his eyes "I'm tired and I want to go back to sleep"

Suguya pulls him up "No, get up. We have to find Itona a girl."

Itona eyes open in shock "Wait what? I was not aware of this. And I don't need a girl!"

Okajima puts an arm around him "Yes you do. Just picture it."

Mimura shakes his head "Honestly if the snipers wasn't a ship, I would ship ItoHaya and ChibaSuga"

Itona "Please no? Hayami scares me. Plus Chiba gets weird when Hayami's mentioned in a romantic sense."

Chiba "Wha?! Not true!"

Sugaya puts an arm around Chiba's waist "I could do worse."

Chiba "Watch the hands or loss the hands."

Sugaya smirks "I know you're trying to sound threatening, but it's really not working, sweetie."

Chiba's vain pops as his annoyance grows "Back. Off."

Itona 'How is his bloodlust actually normal?!'

Sugaya 'How long until he kills me?'

Mimura "You're making it really hard for me to ship Chibahaya…"

Sugaya kisses Chiba's cheek making him noticeably blush.

Chiba's bloodlust wavers and he pushes him away "Go away. Can't I just go back to sleep?"

Okajima "Can you two not be gay for 5 minutes."

Itona rolls his eyes 'So Chiba's bloodlust hardly wavers when Sugaya does well… that? But when Hayami's mentioned he's ready to kill…'

Mimura perks up "Do you think the girls have a favorite gay ship?"

Chiba shrugs "Ugh can you one of guys hand me some clothes from my closet. Nevermind, Sugaya or Itona can you hand me something"

Both Itona and Sugaya went to his closet. Not having much to choose from got him a black tee, black long sleeve button up shirt, with black pants, and black boots.

Sugaya sweat drops "All you have is black. You literally have no color."

Chiba grabs the clothes "Color hurts my eyes."

Okajima snorts "Yeah right, you are just emo."

Chiba shrugs "Black goes with everything."

Mimura "Emo."

Sugaya "Chiba face it."

Itona "You're very emo."

Chiba rolls his eyes starting to change "Shut up."

Sugaya "Stripper."

Chiba "Where's my money then."

Okajima "Gay."

Mimura "Almost ship it."

Chiba sighs and finishes changing "Wait… How the hell did you guys in here? My window was locked?"

Sugaya "We came through the door?"

Itona "We aren't savages."

Mimura "Itona. You're not allowed to say that."

Okajima "Yeah first day in our class what do you do? Break down the back wall."

Itona shrugs "That was the tentacles and Shiro's fault."

The other boys sigh and follow Chiba out of his room downstairs

Chiba sighs when he gets downstairs and sees his siblings "Okay!! Which one of you brats let these idiots in?!"

Rukia continues reading her book "Watch it Ryuu. I still the power to ground you."

Chiba rolls his eyes "Can you? That'd be great. Say I'm not allowed to leave and that no one from school is allowed over."

Rukia scoffs "You wish."

His vain pops annoyed "Why you…"

Sugaya "Well see ya!"

Mimura "We're stealing your brother!!"

Okajima "We'll return him later!!"

Tadashi "Keep him! He's annoying!!"

Itona "Exactly. That's why we'll give him back."

Chiba "I really hope I'm adopted……"

Tadashi "Hope you are!"

Sugaya "Plot twist you're both adopted! Bye!"

The guys rush out.

Chiba "Seriously though. Which one of those shits let you in…"

Okajima smirks "Why should we tell you?"

Chiba "Maybe because I asked how did you get into my home?"

Mimura "But where is the fun in that?"

Itona "I'm surprised they don't hear Sugaya humming 'Pure Imagination' with his eyes closed"

Sugaya humming not paying attention cause his eyes are closed "Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination take a look and you'll see into your~" trips over a face planted to the ground "-Oof"

Okajima stops walking and starts laughing "I wish I had a camera"

Chiba looks at Sugaya while laughing "Are you okay"

Mimura stares at him "I'm disappointed in myself...Why weren't we humming or singing it?"

Itona "That is what you are worried about?"

Mimura "You're not?"

Sugaya rubs the red mark on his forehead "You guys are the worst…"

Chiba "You all broke into my house and came into my room while I was sleeping? How long were you even there?"

Sugaya gets up finally and smirks teasingly "Eh don't worry about that part. You were adorable."

A very faint blush spreads on Chiba's half hidden face "Were you just watching me sleep?! How long were you in there?!"

Mimura "Details aren't important."

Chiba hangs his head "I feel extremely violated……"

Sugaya shrugs "You act like I haven't broken into your room before."

Chiba "You really needa stop doing that. At least stop breaking in when I'm asleep."

Mimura "Ship it. Anyway any ideas on a girl for Itona?"

Itona "I don't need a girl."

Okajima "Shush yes you do."

Mimura nods "Trust us! We know exactly what to do to ensure you get a girlfriend!"

Chiba "Don't trust them. None of them have dating experience."

Sugaya "Hey!"

Okajima "And you do?"

Chiba "No but-"

Mimura "Pause. Sugaya don't count."

Chiba glares at him "We never dated."

Itona snorts "Could've fooled me."

Okajima smirks at Sugaya "You're awfully quiet?~"

Sugaya looks at him "I'm only gay for 5 people. The top 3 are too handsome for their own good. The last 2 are the 2 I known the longest."

Itona "Valid."

Before any of them could say anything else a girl came up to them.

Sugaya raises an eyebrow "Do anyone of us know you?"

Girl "Yes" points to Chiba

Chiba rubs the back of his neck "Sorry but I don't remember you"

Girl "My name is Kanada and I was the girl who always watched you play guitar"

Itona "Wait…"

A shocked Mimura "You play guitar?"

Okajima "Someone like you caught someone like her interest?"

Chiba rolls his eyes at his friends "Oh yeah I remember you now. What did you need?"

Kanada blushes "Well...I was wondering...if you wanted to...go on a date with me?"

The boys go silent for a moment

Chiba heats up "Wh-What…?"

Kanada looks at him determined "I like you! Will you go on a date with me!"

Chiba shifts uncomfortably feeling his friends watching and holding their laughs.

Chiba "I- you do realize I'm in E-3 now?" 'That's a major turn off right?'

She nods "I know. I don't care about that. I've liked you since I first heard you play. So… will you?"

He rubs his neck "I well um…" he looks at Sugaya 'Help!!!!'

Sugaya smirks "You know? We were all heading to the cafe. Wanna join?"

Kanada smiles "Sure!"

Chiba sends a glare in Sugaya's direction 'YOU'RE DEAD TO ME!!!!!'

Okajima "So Kanada? How exactly do you know Chiba?"

Kanada "We has class together last year. Sugaya was there too."

Chiba "Kanada was also in the music club with me…"

She nods "You were also so awesome on guitar! It hasn't been the same since you left…"

Chiba blushes softly "I don't play guitar anymore."

Kanada looks shocked "Ehh?! But you loved it! Why'd you stop!"

Chiba shrugs "Broke a few strings and never got around to replacing them."

Mimura "Might as well pick some up while we're out."

Chiba sighs deciding to stay quiet.

Itona "Chiba I didn't know you played?"

Mimura "Me either?"

Okajima "Why didn't you ever say anything?"

Chiba sinks a little.

Sugaya notices and pats Chiba's shoulder "You boys know how he is? Doesn't like to brag about it."

Kanada pouts "Chiba!! You were easily the best guitarist in the club! You should be proud of that!"

Chiba pulls out his phone "That's all in the past. I already said. I gave up on playing when I dropped to the End Class. Kanada you do realize what will happen if you're seen with E-3 students?"

She shrugs "I don't care about the system. I knew you and Sugaya prior and I know you aren't bad people."

Sugaya "The other three though?"

Mimura "Right we haven't really been introduced? I'm Mimura. This's Okajima and that ones Itona."

Kanada smiles sweetly "Nice to meet you all."

Chiba sends a text to the group chat "help me!!!!"

Sugaya: Chill I'm starting to remember her! She's really cool and sweetChiba: You guys better not ditch me at the cafe alone with herItona: Why cause you actually like herChiba: I don't even remember much about herOkajima: She knows youMimura: And likes you for some reasonChiba: I don't understand whySugaya: Second year you was cool in the music clubSugaya: Really the only time you were cool but stillMimura: Ship it

Chiba pockets his phone looking at the sidewalk in front of them as they continue walking.

"Sugaya! Chiba!"

The two boys turn around seeing the two class devils and Hayami held hostage

Okajima "Are we invisible…"

Mimura "Be glad we aren't the targets right now."

Itona nods "it's never a good thing when they appear."

Kanada flinches "Is- is that…"

Karma "Eh? Did one of these idiots finally get a girlfriend?"

Itona "She's with Chiba."

Hayami looks at her partner confused "I didn't know you had a girlfriend?"

Chiba sighs "Hayami…"

Rio goes over to the girl "Hi! I'm Nakamura! The others girls Hayami and the boy is Karma."

Kanada smiles shyly "Kanada. I used to be in Chiba and Sugaya's class."

Mimura winks "Chiba's new girlfriend."

Karma smirks putting an arm around his emo classmate "Really?"

Kanada blushes "Well he hasn't actually agreed…"

Itona, wanting to see how this goes, "Why don't you three join us? We're all heading to the cafe."

Hayami smirks looking at Chiba noticing his blush "Sure."

Rio "Sounds great."

Chiba 'Well at least I won't be suffering alone… but now the devils AND Hayami will be there… I just wanted to sleep in today…'

They all go to a cafe and sit together against the wall.

Chiba made sure to sit across from Kanada and beside Sugaya.

Chiba 'I wanna go home…'

Kanada 'So much for a romantic one on one date with Chiba…'

Rio "Kanada-chan? You're from the main campus right?"

Kanada nods "Yup. C class. All of you are classmates now right?"

Rio nods "Yeah. E as in End."

Kanada "If you don't mind me asking… what's it like?"

They all look at each other then at Chiba

Chiba bites his lip "It's not as bad as everyone thinks. The buildings old, rundown, and no ac or heated but… sensei actually sees us…"

She tilts her head "Sees you? What's that mean?"

Sugaya subtle scoots closer to Chiba "He means our sensei's actually help us. They want us to succeed."

The others nod agreeing about that.

Kanada "Sounds like an upgrade actually…? I remember when that boy… Takebayashi… got back out of E-3 he said he wanted to transfer back in."

Chiba smiles softly, "Well… you don't know what you have till it's gone…"

Kanada blushes at his words misinterpreting it.

Rio to Hayami "You sure you're okay with your boyfriend flirting with others?"

Hayami kicks her under the table "He isn't my boyfriend."

Sugaya smirks "You referring to when we dated~?"

Chiba scoffs 'Saved sorta…' "I'm still stuck with you aren't I?"

Kanada "Eh?"

E-3 "What."

Itona 'So ChibaSuga is real in a way?'

Sugaya laughs giving his classmates the look "Yeah Chiba hates bringing it up."

Chiba rest his chin in his hand "Duh. You're the absolute worst."

Sugaya brushes his other hand casually "You know you love me."

Chiba links their fingers casually under the table where Kanada can see

Chiba "I'd sell you Hazama for 100 yen."

Sugaya scoffs "I'm worth at least 200 excuse you!"

Hayami smirks "Ship it."

Chiba 'Please be joking…' "Whatever Hayami."

Kanada smiles "Well you two boys are as close as ever?"

Itona "Kanada-san? Have these two always been like this?"

She nods "As long as I've known them anyway, why?"

Itona "Just curious."

ChibaSuga 'Wait does he actually ship it????'

Karma smirks "Kanada? You've known those two since last year right?"

Rio "How'd you meet them again?"

Kanada "Ah well? We had class together and Chiba and I were in the music club together. He was the best guitarist in the club it was awesome!"

Chiba blushes feeling eyes on him "She's over exaggerating."

Kanada pouts "Chiba you were able to play any song they gave you? And you'd play it perfectly after reading over it only once or twice."

Chiba's gaze sharpens "You're over exaggerating."

Sugaya senses his bloodlust and smirks "No need to be so shy about it~ We'll keep it a secret~ we all know how amazing this group is with secrets."

Chiba pouts and glances at the devils who give him an honest look for once.

Chiba "I haven't even touched my guitar since second year."

Kanada "Maybe… Maybe we could play together sometime? Ya know after you fix it?"

Chiba blushes noticeably grabs his drinking hiding his blush "Ah um maybe…"

Kanada smiles happily with a slight blush.

Mimura "Say Kanada? What kind of stuff do you like?"

Kanada thinks "Music. All kinds. I really like the outdoors. You guys are lucky to be able to walk through the mountain whenever. It's off limits for us."

The two continue talking and Chiba relaxes a little

Okajima looks at Hayami 'This might be my only chance to talk to her without Chiba trying to murder me?'

Okajima "So Hayami, wonderful weather we're having."

Hayami glares at him "That was corny, never say that again. What do you want?"

Okajima "I just wanted to talk to you while Chiba chats with his girlfriend."

Hayami bloodlust rises a little "Why?"

Okajima "Because...I like you."

Hayami looks annoyed "Yeah, I know?"

Okajima looks conflicted "Whaa..how..did?!"

Hayami shrugs "I mean it's kinda obvious. Plus you tried hitting on me first and second year."

Okajima smiles "So does that mean…?"

Hayami glares at him "No, go away"

Okajima sulks "Worth a shot…"

Kanada "Chiba?"

Chiba glances back to her "Yeah?"

She bites her lip nervously "If you didn't drop to E-3… would you have stuck with guitar?"

Chiba lowers his coffee "Honestly? I can't even imagine not being in E-3 anymore…" he smiles softly "It's a whole other world there."

Kanada smirks "Maybe I'll drop to E-3 too then?"

That catches everyone off guard

Chiba shakes his head "Kanada. You were one of the top students in the class. You're smart, caring, naive, innocent… Someone like you doesn't belong in the end class."

Kanada blushes knowing he's really looking at her "I'm not like that…"

Chiba sighs "I remember you Kanada. You wouldn't be able to survive that kill or be killed world."

'Good way of phrasing assassination…'

Kanada pouts "I could survive that! I'm not innocent as you think!"

Sugaya pinches Chiba's hand 'Chiba she really loves you'

Chiba 'She doesn't really even know me'

Chiba glances at his classmates who feel his hidden gaze.

Mimura sighs 'Fine I'll help…' "Earlier Chiba was trying to be nice… E-3 isn't what he said."

Okajima nods 'I just want to tease him' "It's a hell hole. Sometimes our teacher really sees us but most of the time he's not even there."

Itona "I don't even go to class half the time."

Karma "Also ditching."

Rio "Everyone there is dead and delinquents."

Hayami "Once you fall in there you can't escape."

Kanada nods "You guys don't seem like that?"

Karma smirks showing his sadistic devil side 'This is starting to get testy' "Oh really? I'm Akabane Karma the school devil. Do you really think my class isn't full of violent delinquents? Even Chiba-kun has his moments~"

Kanada frowns "Well I suppose you guys are but it's only natural right?"

Chiba grits his teeth "What the fuck's that supposed to mean."

All have their bloodlust rise a bit.

Kanada shrugs "Well? All the misfits and thugs have to go somewhere. But Chiba-kun's not like that! You're grades were high enough! You could come back to the main campus!"

Chiba shakes his head "No way to hell am I going back. Why would I."

She looks at him like he's crazy. At this point neither of the two are paying attention to the other E-3 students

Kanada "Why would you stay there? If you come back you'll be fixed."

He tightens his grip on Sugaya's hand not realizing it "'Fixed'? 'If I come back I'll be fixed'? Kanada you don't know me."

She crosses her arms "Yes I do! You're Chiba Ryunosuke! The guitar genius! You're smart but dropped to E-3 because time management! You're caring but don't like showing it! And you're-"

Chiba cuts her off with bloodlust in his voice "A thug. A broken misfit. A violent delinquent. A dead man."

Kanada flinches at his tone "You're not like that!"

"Oh but my people are?"

"They aren't your people Chiba!"

The rest from E-3 are starting to get nervous

Itona 'He's starting to lose it…'

Hayami 'Chiba calm down!!'

Mimura 'Oh no…'

Okajima 'Bloodlust worse than when I flirt with Hayami!!'

Rio 'She's gonna die…'

Karma 'Chiba needs to be neutralized. Now!!'

Sugaya 'This's bad!! This's REALLY bad!!!! Think!!! Kill him now!! I can't hurt him what else is there?!??'

Chiba scoffs "These are my people. We may be broken misfits but we have each other."

Kanada "You don't need them! You can have me! I love you! So why! Why do you stay there!"

Chiba's bloodlust fills his intense eyes "No matter what you say I won't leave E-3."

Kanada "Why?!"

Chiba "Everyone and everything I love is there."

Kanada "But what about me!!"

Chiba's bloodlust surrounds him to the point his classmates flinch a little.

Chiba "What about you."

Sugaya 'This's my only option… I'm sorry Chiba…'

Before Chiba can respond Sugaya grabs his shirt kissing him.

Chiba goes red as his bloodlust fades.

Itona 'So they are together??'

Karma and Rio take pictures.

Hayami blushes 'Kiss of death…'

Mimura 'Not a bad move Sugaya?'

Okajima 'Sugaya's gonna die later…'

Sugaya pulls away after doing 20 hits and puts an arm around him turning to Kanada

Sugaya "My boyfriend tried to be nice, but you crossed the line."

Kanada "B-boyfriend?!?! If you had a boyfriend why did you agree?!?!"

Chiba tilts his head "I figured you knew? We've been dating since last year."

She stands up "Disgusting homos!!"

Kanada storms out.

Chiba sighs relieved then sends a death glare at Sugaya while blushing intensely "Sugaya…"

Sugaya sweats letting go and scooting away a little "On the bright side it worked?"

Chiba stabs him "Give me warning if you're gonna do something like that!"

Okajima 'That's all he says?!'

Itona "So are you two dating or not?"

Both "Not!!!"

Sugaya crosses his arms "That was the best way to neutralize him."

Chiba nods "I'm still gonna actually kill you for that though."

Mimura "Chiba if Sugaya didn't stop you right then you were ready to murder her."

He thinks "Murder is a strong word. And I wouldn't here. There's to many witnesses."

Karma smirks "Shoulda used my prank bag."

Rio looks through her pictures "Not bad. Didn't know you two swung that way?"

Chiba glares "It's not like that!"

Sugaya laughs lightly "I was just trying to prevent a murder?"

Hayami smirks raising an eyebrow "I don't think I've ever seen your bloodlust that high? Or you blush that much?"

Chiba throws a balled up napkin at her "Don't rub it in."

She laughs slightly "That's amusing."

He pouts looking away "I wanna go home…"

Mimura "…Did you still want to pick up guitar strings?"

Chiba's bloodlust returns "I will hang you with them."

Mimura shivers holding his hands up "Scary!"

Sugaya looks at Rinka and vice versa "He's not that scary. Plus if I wouldn't have kissed him, Hayami would have and I saved him embarrassment."

Karma smirks with his devil ears and tail showing "Both of you should've kissed him."

Rio smirks too "Yeah, matter of fact do it right now."

Chiba blushes "How is that even possible?"

Okajima "Each of them kiss your cheek or the corner of your mouth"

Chiba covers his face "I wanna go home…"

Karma "So you play the guitar? Rio, are you thinking what I'm thinking?"

Rio nods "Yeah, back to the cosplay store?"

Karma smirks "Back to the cosplay store."

Karma and Rio gets up and walks out of the cafe.

Sugaya "Do I have the right to be scared?"

Everyone at the table nods. A little after Rinka gets a text.

Rio: Do your mom know you are in a poly relationship?Rio: Would your mom let you have your boyfriend and his boyfriend over?Hayami: I'm not dating anyone!

Mimura looks over at Hayami "Why is your face so red?"

Okajima smirks "Oooh, Chiba you better watch out someone might be stealing your girlfriend."

Chiba blushes as his bloodlust wavers at that very thought "She's not my girlfriend"

Itona smirks "Because you're dating Sugaya?"

Sugaya and Chiba blushes "It's not like that."

Hayami attempts to regain her composure "You both are tsunderes."

Chiba looks at her "You're the last person allowed to say that 'Tsundere Sniper'."

She pouts "Whatever adult game protagonist."

Itona "Why do I feel Okajima gave both of you those code names."

Okajima shrugs "I will neither confirm nor deny that. Mostly because I fear for my life either way."

Chiba sighs and put his head down "Please end my suffering…"

Mimura "You know you love us~"

Itona "More specifically Sugaya and Hayami."

All three blush "It's not like that!"

Okajima "Wait… Sugaya, Hayami, and Kanada… Chiba does have dating experience!"

Chiba chokes lifting his head "Okajima!! It's not like that with any of them!!"

Mimura "Mmm… You did kinda just have a date with Kanada? Sugaya and Hayami is pretty self explanatory."

Chiba "That wasn't a date. That was me losing the last of my sanity."

Hayami smirks "It was amusing though?"

Sugaya sighs rubbing his hand "Aside from Chiba trying to break my hand."

Chiba shrugs "That's more your fault than mine. You're the one who held my hand to begin with."

Sugaya's vein pops "I was hoping Kanada would notice and leave before you lost control of your bloodlust. I think we all know what happens when that you do?"

They all nod remembering him cutting off Korosensei's arm without looking.

Chiba laughs lightly "I'm usually pretty good at controlling it?"

Itona "Not when Hayami's involved."

Okajima "Or when Sugaya is involved"

Mimura "And when someone insults E-3"

Chiba forgetting both Hayami and Sugaya are there "Valid."

Sugaya and Hayami share a glance confused

Hayami "Wait what?"

Sugaya "I'm confused?"

Chiba then remembers both their presence and heats up "Don't- don't take it the wrong way!"

Sugaya smirks poking his cheek "You love us~"

Chiba pulls his phone out "I will literally sell you to Hazama-san right now. Don't try me."

Sugaya leans towards him "So I'm yours right now~? And I'll try you later when we're alone~"

Chiba blushes pushing him away and attempts to ignore his smirking friends "I hate all of you…"

Mimura raises an eyebrow "Not your boyfriend and girlfriend though?"

Chiba "It's not like that with either of them!"

Okajima "Wait… if all three of them are together that's… a poly relationship right?"

Itona "I'm surprised you know that?"

Okajima shrugs "Straight but don't hate. I know the basics for that stuff."

Mimura "You only know it cause you were going insane trying to figure out if Chiba was with Sugaya or Hayami."

Chiba "Why does everyone think I'm dating one of them…"

Hayami "You and Sugaya always act like a couple."

Sugaya "And you two spend a lot of time alone together out of school to 'practice'."

Chiba rolls his hidden eyes "One. Sugaya's just a clingy idiot. Two. Stop with the air quotes. Three. Hayami and I practice shooting so you can depend on us for the final shot."

Sugaya crosses his arms "Don't act like you hate it? I've seen that stupid smile~"

Chiba freezes "Sugaya you really aren't helping." He smirks "I'm starting to think you're actually in love with me~?"

This time it's Sugaya that blushes "You wish!"

Hayami smirks "Gay."

Sugaya fingers guns "No."

Chiba "It's not that…"

Mimura "Bi poly?"

Okajima "I feel like Sugaya and Chiba are both bi poly. Hayami… probably straight poly but I can see her with a girl."

Itona "You mean gender bend Chiba maybe. It's pretty obvious she has a crush on him."

Hayami goes red "Huh?!"

Mimura shrugs "Everyone knows there's something with you three."

Chiba sighs "Nothing's going on between us." 'Hayami… wouldn't like someone like me…and if I did swing that way...Sugaya wouldn't date me...I'm not fit for either of them...'

Hayami nods in agreement "Yeah." 'Chiba is into Sugaya ...plus he is way out of my league'

Sugaya nods as well 'He likes Hayami...he only see me as a friend'

Itona "Well, I guess I'll go now. I need to pick up some parts for the bot. See you guys tomorrow."

Okajima waves "Bye! See ya."

Mimura runs up to Itona before he can make it to the door "Hey Itona, do you think you can get Karma and Rio to tell you what they are going to do with those three"

Itona sighs and shrugs "Not sure, they usually like to keep these as surprises. But I can see what I can do"

Mimura nods "Valid. Okay, bye."

Mimura returns to the four left.

Okajima "Is there actually anything between you three?"

Chiba sighs "Not what you're thinking."

Okajima and Mimura look at them skeptically

Hayami "Chiba and I are just friends and sniping partners. Sugaya and I don't even talk much?"

Sugaya nods agreeing "Chiba and I go way back. And if it wasn't for Chiba I'd probably not talk to Hayami in general. She's scary!"

Chiba looks lost "Hayami isn't that scary? She's really nice as long as you don't piss her off."

Hayami blushes faintly "Eh…?"

Chiba shrugs "Plus it's kinda cute when you get angry."

As soon as the words left his mouth all freeze.

Hayami fights back a blush "See how cute it is when I kill you."

He smirks smugly "As if you can kill me?"

Hayami "Is that a challenge?"

Chiba nods "That's a challenge."

Okajima "Chiba you're gonna die."

Mimura "The real question is which way will she kill him."

Sugaya "Probably kiss of death."

Both snipers blushes and throw ball napkins at them "Shut up!"

The three laugh at their friend

Okajima stands up "I gotta get going. We came to find Itona a girl but he dipped."

Hayami smirks "Wait… You were trying to find Itona a girl? How did the whole 'Chiba has a date with his stalker' thing happen??"

Okajima "I'll let these guys explain that. Later."

He leaves.

Hayami "……Can someone explain what exactly happened with Kanada?"

Chiba hands his head "Preferably not…"

Mimura snickers "This morning we broke into Chiba's house and kidnapped him then ran into Kanada and she confessed."

Chiba "Frankly this is all Sugaya's fault."

Sugaya looks offended "And how is it my fault?"

Chiba "I don't know but it is."

Hayami and Mimura laugh

Mimura "You're right Chiba. It is Sugaya's fault."

Sugaya "Excuse you???? It was Okajima and your idea to find Itona a girl?"

Mimura "Yeah but you're the one who remembered where Chiba lives. Probably cause of how often you go over to bang."

Both boys blush completely "It's not like that!!!"

Hayami chokes on her laugh "Ship it!"

Chiba crosses his arms annoyed "Sugaya and I go way back. He's been over a few times but we're just friends." 'Do we really act that gay?'

Sugaya nods "Completely platonic." 'He's out of my league…'

Hayami "Sure."

Mimura "Wait a sec… You two go way back… Sugaya you said you're only gay for 5 guys. Three who are too handsome for their own good which are completely obvious. And the other two you've known forever? Is one Chiba?"

Sugaya tenses "It's not like that!!!"

Chiba raises an eyebrow "Come to think of it…"

Sugaya puts his head down hiding his red face "Chiba you are absolutely not helping right now."

Chiba laughs and shrugs "I'm kidding. You've known me forever. Plus knowing everything you do, why would you like me. You know what I'm like."

Sugaya sighs 'That's why' "Yeah you're an idiot. Like that time you-"

Chiba slaps his head "Sugaya I already lost like 99% of my self respect and dignity. Don't finish that."

Sugaya smiles keeping his head down "Fine fine?"

Mimura "I'm convinced you two are dating…"

Hayami nods "Definitely…"

Both are taken aback and look away from each other

Sugaya "For the millionth time; it's not like that."

Chiba nods "We aren't dating. And Mimura before you say it, no I'm dating Hayami either. And lastly no. I'm not going to let you try to set me up."

Mimura pouts "You're no fun…"

He rolls his hidden eyes "Okay? And????"

Mimura sulks "Why are you like this…… I don't understand what either of those two see in you…… You're a pain……"

Chiba crosses his arms "Will you stop shipping me with friends…"

Mimura "Mmmmm…… No. I don't think I will."

Chiba sighs "I honestly don't know what I was expecting…"

Sugaya "I don't understand how you and Hayami aren't dating though…"

Hayami blushes "I don't understand why you think we would be." 'He likes you after all…'

Chiba "Can I go back to sleep now…"

Sugaya "Really Chiba…"

Chiba shrugs "You woke me up to early. Plus I was up late studying…"

Sugaya "Why were you studying on a weekend…"

Chiba sighs "Itona's been bugging me about that new bot. The trajectory has been giving him a hard time and asked me to look into it." He yawns and stretches "Ended up getting carried away and stayed up till like 2am."

Hayami raises an eyebrow "You usually stay up that late though?"

Chiba "But if I do I'm usually able to sleep in. But no. Someone had to break into my room and drag me out."

Sugaya crosses his arms "It's not the first time and won't be the last. Don't forget? We know where you live."

Chiba shivers "I'm switching rooms… I'm definitely switching r- Wait a second… How did…"

Mimura "Sugaya."

Hayami raises an eyebrow "Interesting~"

Chiba "Sugaya. Choose your next words carefully."

Sugaya forces a smile "Ah ha… So any idea on who we should set Itona up with?"

Mimura "Well, who are all the single girls in the classroom."

Hayami sweat drops "All of us girls are single"

Mimura "Isn't Kataoka with Isogai?"

Sugaya "And Nakamura with Karma?"

Hayami sighs "No, you just ship them"

Chiba "Wait the devils aren't together?"

Hayami deadpans "No…"

Mimura "Well either way Kataoka and Nakamura are out. Hayami's dating Chiba and Sugaya so she's out too."

The other three just sigh

Mimura "Has Itona even shown interest in any girl?"

Sugaya "Mmmm…… He gets along with Ritsu and Hazama pretty good? He and Hayami have that mutually scare each other thing."

Hayami "First impressions matter. He broke into the classroom, literally. After tentacles were removed all of you boys built a robot for peeping. I'm still disappointed in you…"

Chiba "I took no part in that."

Mimura "Stop trying to sound innocent."

Sugaya thinks back "Actually… all Chiba did was handle weapons? And that's cause he didn't have a choice?"

Chiba nods "Exactly. Plus, all the girls in our class are scary when mad."

The boys are in agreement and Hayami shrugs

Mimura "But seriously. A girl for Itona…"

Sugaya sighs "I genuinely don't think I've seen him show interest in a girl. I mean even Chiba has shown interest in Hayami!"

Chiba "I'm ignoring that comment. But maybe Itona is gay?"

Sugaya looks up "While we're on this subject… Mimura had a question about that."

Mimura snaps his fingers "Oh yeah, Hayami do you girls have a favorite gay ship?"

Hayami "Uh… hold on a second…"

Sugaya "That means yes…"

Hayami pulls out her phone and started texting in the girls group chat.

Hayami: Alert! The boys are onto us.Kurahashi: How? What happened?Hayami: They either know or think we have favorite gay shipsNakamura: DON'T give them an answer for thatYada: Change the subjectFuwa: Just ask if they have a favorite lesbian shipHayami: I really don't want the answer to that…Kayano: They'll be too embarrassed to answer it's fine!

Hayami sighs "Will you three stop smirking before I shoot it off."

Sugaya "Scary!"

Chiba "So I take it you girls do have a favorite gay ship?"

Hayami crosses her arms "Do you boys have a favorite lesbian ship."

Mimura "I mean…"

Sugaya covers his mouth and Chiba facepalms.

Hayami "Seriously…? You guys do…"

Sugaya laughs forcefully "Like the guys in general…?? Cause we took no part in that."

Mimura nods with his mouth still covered.

Hayami looks at Chiba knowing she can see through his lies

Chiba "Hey don't look at me? I took no part of that…"

Hayami "Bullshit. Answer the question."

Chiba smirks "Why? You didn't? So why should we?"

Hayami flinches "Well that's…"

Sugaya moves his hand "He's right?"

Mimura nods "Yeah?"

Hayami looks back her phone "Pervs."

Mimura "Still waiting for an answer."

Hayami "Not until I get an answer"

Mimura stares at Hayami "I asked first"

Hayami glares back "Well I asked second"

Sugaya to Chiba "How is this so intense?"

Chiba to Sugaya "I have no idea."

Mimura "But I asked first"

Hayami "So? Being second is better than being first"

Mimura scoffs "Yeah right? How so?"

Hayami "Being second shows you still have more to prove."

Sugaya nods "She got you there."

Chiba shrugs "Believe me. You can't win against her when she gets like this… "

Hayami smirks victorious

Mimura sighs "Fine, well you are shipped with 3 people Kurahashi, Fuwa, and Nakamura"

Hayami looks at Chiba and Sugaya "Is that true?"

Sugaya nods as Chiba looks away.

Mimura "Nakamura is shipped with every girl in the class. Kayano is shipped with Okano and Okuda, Yada and Hara are shipped as well as Kataoka and Yada."

Hayami nods "Nice to know"

Hayami gets up and starts walking away.

Sugaya "Hey! You didn't answer our question."

Hayami "Sorry got to fly, see you later"

Mimura "But you are walking"

Chiba and Sugaya facepalm as Hayami leaves the cafe.

Chiba "Why do I feel like I'm in the most danger right now…"

Sugaya "Hayami's gonna straight up murder you. The rest of the girls are definitely gonna kill of us."

Chiba sighs "Way to go Mimura… You know Hayami's immediately gonna tell Nakamura."

Mimura pales "I'm so dead…"

Chiba "……blame it on Okajima?"

Sugaya nods "Sounds like a plan."

Mimura "Yup."

Sugaya "Should we warm the guys…"

Chiba "Probably…"

Mimura looks up from his phone "Do you guys actually think Hayami's gonna kill us?"

Chiba nods "Yeah… I'll try talking her out of it but don't get high hopes."

Sugaya "I still wonder who their favorite gay ship is… or who they ship with who…"

Chiba shrugs "Who knows… girls are a mystery…"

Mimura sighs "Either way… we're screwed."

Sugaya "We're only screwed if Chiba can't talk his girlfriend out of telling them."

Chiba "She's not my girlfriend, and don't get your hopes up. Hayami probably wants to get back at me for our last bet."

Mimura "Oh no… What'd you do?"

Chiba bites his lip "Let's just say it was a dick move and she's probably still pissed."

Sugaya smirks "Does it have anything to do with that song from the other day?"

A soft blush dusts his cheeks "Anyway. She's probably still mad at me for that."

Meanwhile with Hayami

Hayami was walking home and had just took out her phone.

Hayami: The guys told me their lesbian ships'Okano: Wha!?Kataoka: I didn't expect them to actually tell youKayano: This is interestingNakamura: Meet at my house to tell us?Hayami: SureKurahashi: You didn't tell our ships' did you?Hayami: NopeOkuda: WhewYada: Are we going to use this against them?Fuwa: Or are we going to beat them to a pulp?Nakamura: Either way this is great newsOkuda: We will get back at themOkano: Ha, can't waitKayano: Wait which one actually told youNakamura: Probably one of her boyfriendsHara: Aren't you dating Chiba and SugayaHayami: No but I'm convinced those two areHayami: But it was Mimura who told me the shipsHayami: Sugaya confirmed it and Chiba didn't deny itOkano: I'm gonna kill them
