A/N: apologies for the delay on this one. the holidays really wore me out. happy new year!

thanks for reading. all feedback is appreciated.


The time was unknown to yan-chan.

She groaned as her eyes slowly opened. Everything was all blurry and fuzzy, but after giving her eyes a moment to adjust, she found out that she was in her bedroom. Her head was spinning and occasionally causing tiny aches of pain.

She had the most horrible nightmare. She confessed her love for senpai and then he rejected her! He took her heart and crushed it into the dirt! Then yan-chan destroyed her shrine to him, the shrine that took her months to create. Then after that… something else happened… something on the rooftop of the school. Jayson was there.

Everything else is just a blank.

Good thing it was just a bad dream though! It's not like senpai actually tore out yan-chan's heart and stomped it… he wouldn't do that, right? He… he didn't do that… right?

He… he did that, didn't he? So it wasn't just a dream. Yan-chan actually confessed to her senpai and he rejected her. She actually went into a heartbroken rage and destroyed her shrine, didn't she.

"well hello, sleeping beauty" Jayson stone said as he opened the door to her room and entered.

He looked… odd. He seemed to be more cautious then usual, more alert and focused. He also seemed rather intimidating. He looked at yan-chan as if she was an enemy, a threat to his safety… or his life.

"jayson? Why are you looking at me like that?" yan-chan asked as she held her blanket close to her, similar in the way a frightened child would.

Jayson had a rather vicious glare on his face, a glare that was freezing yan-chan down to the core. It made her feel uncomfortable, threatened, and a little fearful. He held the glare of a predator, and she must have been his prey.

"whats wrong with you? You look like you've seen the face of death" yan-chan said in concern for her best friend.

He sighed in relief as his expression brightened. That horrible glare disappeared "you don't remember? Perfect" he said as he sighed again.

"remember what? What happened? How did I get back in my room?"

"you kinda passed out" jayson explained. "you were angry, incredibly angry. After you said some… choice words, you screamed at the top of your lungs and passed out. I brought you home immediately"

her brows jolted in shock. "oh no. not again" she said in worry before covering her face with the palms of her hands.

"this has happened before?"

"when I was a little girl, I used to just… snap. I got violent and angry for no reason at all. Sometimes I hurt people and then I just… wake up" she explained. "but that hasn't happened in seven years"

"have you ever fainted after snapping?" jayson asked.

"sometimes, But only when I get really bad. I was ten years old the last time I snapped like that. I almost killed my father, and I don't even remember why" yan-chan said. she looked incredibly upset.

"hey… maybe you should just relax. Take it easy for a little while" jayson said, trying to calm her down.

"i almost hurt you, didn't I?" she asked as she now pressed thighs against her chest and hugged her legs, taking on the shape of a ball. Now she understood why jayson looked so prepared and cautious. Yan-chan must have snapped at him, and the worst part is that she can't even remember what she said or if she caused him pain or not. "what did I do to you, jayson? Tell me everything"

"promise you won't get mad?" he asked.

"i promise"

jayson then explained everything to her. Well, not everything. He left out the part where he confessed his love for her and replaced it with a lie about forcing him to kill senpai, trying to make it sound believable. He hated lying to her about this. He hated hiding his true feelings. But now is not the time to tell the truth and face consequences. Yan-chan is in a very, very delicate and fragile state. She needs jayson now more then ever, before she does something she regrets.

"and then you kinda… tried to kill me" he explained. Using the 'you wanted me to kill senpai' lie.

"and you didn't fight back? You were just going to let it happen?" yan-chan asked.

"i didn't want to hurt you" jayson answered honestly. He really felt that way. He couldn't live with himself while knowing that he had brought pain to his beloved, whether by accident or not. if jayson lays a hand on her, he fails as both a protector and a lover. Yan-chan doesn't deserve to be treated like katherine. Nobody deserves to be treated like katherine.

"I'm so sorry" yan-chan said as she stood up from her bed and pulled jayson into an apologetic hug "i can't believe I almost hurt you. My only friend, and I almost killed you. I'm so sorry" her grip around him tightened.

"it's okay. I forgive you" he gently patted her on the back. He got in a quick sniff of her hair. Still smells like lavender.

"how long have I been out?" she asked as she removed herself from jayson.

"for a whole day. Today is Friday, 3:05 PM" he said as he checked her alarm clock.

"oh no!" yan-chan shouted. "i missed graduation and I skipped the final exam! My chances of getting into collage are ruined!"

"it's not that bad. You could just take summer classes, right?" jayson asked.

"mother and father are going to kill me! i can't believe I just threw away my education! Argh! Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" she shouted again as she banged her head into the wall.

"easy! Don't give yourself head trauma!" jayson shouted while preventing her head from meeting the wall again. Maybe after she passed out, a few screws in her brain loosened.

Yan-chan groaned in irritation as she fell back into her bed. She then scoffed at her own stupidity.

How could she just miss two of the most important days of the school year like that! She was supposed to be valedictorian too! You know, the person who's supposed to give the motivational speech and everything! The most important part of graduation!

What's going to happen when her parents find out? Ooh, that are going to be angry, mother especially. Maybe that will give them the incentive to come home and stop ignoring their only child.

"i can see that you need to be alone. I'll be downstairs if you need me" jayson said as he walked towards yan-chan's door. God, this was such an uncomfortable situation and jayson knew that his presence was only making it worst.

"thank you" yan-chan said before he almost made it to the door.

"for what?" jayson asked.

"for taking care of me and for being there when I need you. You're my best friend, jayson" she said as she laid on her mattress and gazed at the eggshell white ceiling above her.

"you're my best friend too" he replied.

"I remember calling you a dog" yan-chan said in a calm tone. "I'm sorry for insulting you like that. A dog is a mindless animal. You are not a mindless animal, jayson. And if anyone says otherwise, crush them. make them scream and whimper in pain" she sounded angry. But that anger wasn't geared towards jayson, it was geared towards herself. Yan-chan was angry at herself for all the idiotic and foolish things she had done yesterday.

Confessing to her senpai while thinking he'd just agree. Destroying her shrine that took months to reach perfection. Turning on her one and only friend, threatening to kill him while he smiles at her.

Not to mention the fact that her hands still smelt like bleach due to the mad cleaning frenzy she went on. That was supposed to be yan-chan's way of taking her mind off senpai, since she never thinks about him when doing her chores. But that obviously didn't work for the first time, so she did her chores again, and again, and then again for seven hours straight. Her arms still ached from all the scrubbing.

Ohh well, at least mother and father will have a clean house to come back too.

Speaking of which, when were they coming home? What exactly were they doing? Was this some kind of business trip or personal vacation? And why America of all places?

Sure, yan-chan's parents have taken business trips before. And yes, yan-chan has been left alone for most of those trips. But they never left the freaking country! Most trips were to places like Tokyo, Hiroshima or Nagasaki. Places yan-chan had been to before and knew her parents would be safe at.

But when did they decide that going to a foreign country was a good idea? Especially when mother doesn't even know how to speak English!

Yan-chan sighed. What is she going to do now? Senpai has rejected her and she has been locked into the friend zone. Now he'll never love her!

Like it or not, yan-chan is going to have to go back to her old ways. She's going to have to hide in bushes and trees while stalking senpai instead of walking next to him while talking and getting to know him.

She'll never hear his complements toward her ever again. She'll never get the chance to stare directly into his big, dreamy eyes. She'll never again feel the pleasure of hearing him say her name or hold her hand.

now she is forced to hide her love in the shadows, watch over him like a guardian angel while he goes on with his life, blissfully unaware of her existence.

She can't go back to that! She doesn't want to go back to that! She doesn't like being the clingy and possessive stalker! she likes being the clingy and possessive future girlfriend! But that will never happen now. Now everything goes back to normal.

Yan-chan doesn't want everything to go back to normal! She loved the changes and improvements in her relationship with senpai. So what now? is she supposed to just forget about that all and continue being the creepy stalker?

You know what. Maybe she shouldn't think about that just yet. Maybe she should take jayson's advice and just relax and take a break for the day. Maybe now is the time to… stop thinking about senpai.

"BLASPHEMER!" her mind shouted at her. "HOW DARE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING ONE SECOND WITHOUT BASKING IN THE DIVINE GLORY THAT IS SENPAI!"

Her mind was correct. It was blaspheme to even grasp the concept of going a whole day without thinking about senpai. But sadly, that's what she needs right now. She needs time to think and clear her head. She needs to let off some steam and just… live.


The time was 3:15 PM.

Jayson Stone sighed as he threw himself on yan-chan's couch and clicked a button on a remote, causing the flat screen television to come to life.

He was beyond relived to know that yan-chan had forgotten about their little encounter on the school rooftop. Now he has a second chance, a chance to show his sister that he doesn't need to go with plan B. still… jayson was concerned. If yan-chan forgot, that means she can remember and if she remembers, then jayson will either die by the hands of his beloved or he will be forced to go with plan B.

the reason he didn't do that on the rooftop is because plan B requires the use of a… special object that may or may not be entirely legal to carry around.

Jayson didn't have the special object on him during yan-chan's assault, but he's come prepared this time. The syringe is strapped firmly against his thigh, hidden inside his jeans. If things get out of hand…

jayson's train of thought was destroyed upon hearing a knock on the front door. Why do people always interrupt him when he's rethinking his plans?

Jayson looked through the peep hole of the door to see… oh god, it's him. Out of all places for this worm to be, why does he choose to come here? Hasn't he done enough damage already?

"what do you want?" jayson asked coldly after opening the door to reveal senpai. The pathetic worm was wearing a simple white collared shirt with regular denim jeans while his grey sweater was unzipped and hanging from his left shoulder. Senpai lacks in personality when it comes to clothing. If the school didn't enforce uniforms, senpai would defiantly become a laughing stock due to his bland choices of clothing.

Jayson knows what you're thinking. Speak for yourself, hypocrite! You wear the same thing, only in black and red!

Wrong! Jayson wears tee-shirts! Big difference! Besides, red says a lot about jayson. It's usually the color often associated with danger. and that's exactly what jayson is, a danger.

"hey, jayson. What are you doing here?"

"i asked you first" jayson's tone still carried cruelty in it. And by all accounts, it was well deserved to be thrown at senpai. Squirming little bastard, breaking the heart of yan-chan like that. it was a crime that jayson could never forgive.

"i was just walking around and I thought I'd check up on ayana-chan. is she…"

"she's fine" jayson cut senpai off. "she doesn't want to be bothered. Go home" he shut the door.

"look man" senpai said in slight anger as he used his foot to block the door, preventing it from closing. "i know you've got it out for me, but that doesn't give you a reason to bring ayana-chan in the middle of this. I just wanna talk to her"

"she's asleep" jayson's tone sounded more aggressive.

"you're lying" senpai matched that tone in aggression. "i know what I did was wrong. I should have considered her feelings. I was being too hard on her. Just let me apologize and get back on good terms with her" senpai tried to push the door open.

"you need to just leave her alone" jayson pushed in the opposite direction.

"and you need to stay out of situations that don't concern you!" senpai shouted. That had set jayson off.

He opened the door fully and forced his fist into the worm's face, causing senpai to fall onto the wooden floor of the porch, due to the unexpected force of jayson's violent action.

"you… you punched me!" senpai shouted in reaction to the pain.

"go… away" jayson said as his eyes went blank.

Senpai got up and walked away. His left cheek now bearing a black and blue bruise.

Damn, hitting that worm felt amazing. Jayson had always wanted to do that to the wimp. He was almost tempted to run out of the house and bang senpai's face into the pavement.

"i saw that" jayson turned as he heard the female voice behind him. Oh shit…

yan-chan stood at the bottom of the stairway, which was right behind the front door. She wasn't glaring in hatred and she certainly didn't look offended or even angry. She just looked… sad.

Jayson had no words. "i… um… before you go all crazy on me, I was just…"

"don't let it happen again" she said before walking into the kitchen.

He couldn't believe it. He had purposely hurt senpai while yan-chan watched, and she just let it slide? She just let jayson go unpunished? No yelling about how much of a god senpai was? No sudden outburst of rage? No cry of vengeance? just saying 'don't do it again' and throwing the matter out of the window?

The yan-chan he knows would have never let this go, even after all the things she and jayson have been through, there was one rule that must always be followed, nobody hurts senpai.

But jayson just did that. He even left a mark on the worm. So… does that mean she's over him? Has she moved on? Does she care anymore?

She soon returned to the living room while carrying a bag of chips in her hand. She sat comfortably on her couch, legs crossed. She then used the remote to change the television to her favorite channel.

"um. About what just happened" jayson said.

"i said don't let it happen again" she dismissed. Normally she'd be beyond enraged over any violent assults on her senpai but she made an acceptation and left a warning for her loyal friend. he would do well to follow that warning if he wanted to remain close to her without finding a knife in his back.

"you okay?" jayson asked as he joined her on the couch.

"i just wanna be left alone. Today is officially known as no-senpai-day"

jayson was beyond shocked at her words. "Ayana Satsujin-koibito. You are the worst yandere ever" he joked.

She scoffed at him. "i just want to relax for a little while. Clear my head, you know?" she said as she offered to share her bag of chips with her dear friend.

"fine" he said. "you wanna netflix and chill?" he asked with a suggestive grin.

"what? What's a netflix?" she asked back, clueless.

"Nothing" he dismissed as a chuckle escaped him. "how about you and me go hang out for awhile? Wanna go to the mall?" he offered.

"why? I just want to be left alone today, remember? You don't have to stay with me if you don't want to. I don't need a babysitter"

"oh, really? Well to bad! Because I am not leaving your side!" jayson said as he took a more comfortable position. "order some pizza, babe. We're not leaving this couch"

"did you just call me babe?" yan-chan asked while glaring. He just smiled and directed his attention toward the television. He seemed to act more flirtatious and forward then usual. Why was he doing this though? Was he just messing around or was this something more? Does jayson… have feelings for yan-chan?

Nah. There's no way that can be right. They're friends. Jayson is like the brother yan-chan always wanted. That was the truth. She always did like the idea of having a sibling, even if she would never get along with her older/younger brother/sister, at least she wouldn't be alone all the time.

But back on topic. No-senpai-day starts now. She knows what you're thinking. "Blasphemer! How dare you have a no-senpai-day! You're supposed to be yandere-chan not kuudere-chan!

If you actually did say this then hold your horses and go easy on her. She's been through a lot. It's not like yan-chan was giving up on loving senpai. She's just taking a small break, getting a little R&R. She can work on regaining his love tomorrow. Today is all about her.


The time was 1:30 AM. Eastern standard time. Location: New York City, America.

"hehe… I had so much fun"

"i know. Now, why don't you lay down and relax for a bit. Give yourself a good long nap" Taro Satsujin-koibito said as he guided his wife toward the bed in their hotel room.

"aww, but I don't wanna sleep. Come and play with me, darling" she sang as she swayed side to side before losing balance and falling into the large double bed.

Taro rolled his eyes at his wife's actions as he unbuttoned his coat. Yes, Seiko is heavily intoxicated and yes, taro is at fault for this. He didn't mean to get his wife drunk off her ass, He just wanted her to get a little tipsy and serve that as an excuse for leaving that god awful bar.

In truth, he liked her better when she had a little alcohol in her system. She's more playful and less threatening. It's better to be cuddled to death rather then stabbed, not that seiko would ever dream of hurting him.

He sighed as he fell into the hotel room's queen sized bed. His wife cuddled up next to him and nuzzled herself into his neck.

"taro… I love you." she said, her breath reeking of alcohol.

"yeah, I know" he replied as he wrapped his right arm around her waist and held her closer. That's all she says. Every day, every night, I love you. Those three words that are the most passionate things you could ever say to somebody, and he saw nothing in them. He saw them as blank, hollow, empty and meaningless.

Granted, any man should appreciate the ability to hear their wife pronounce her love, but when you hear those very same words over and over again, it gets repetitive.

Taro sighed again as he surfed the channels that the hotel provided, nothing good was on though. As he kept clicking and clicking on the remote, he couldn't stop thinking about his daughter.

Poor girl. He knew his daughter detested being alone and the lack of contact with her parents was probably making that worst. Taro wished she could have been here with them. She would have loved it. This place is so bright and flashy, so alive and energetic. It's very different from the quite and calm neighborhood back home. You know, now that taro thought about it, this place was a lot like tokyo.

Ayana. Was it wrong for taro to feel bad for her? He knows what she does. He knows that she takes away the lives of innocent people, all for some boy. She spills blood almost every other day. She's very violent and high strung.

Taro lifted up the left sleeve of his shirt, revealing the large scar on his upper left arm, the scar that his daughter had given him on her tenth birthday. Taro never held this against her, however. It was an accident and he knew and forgave his daughter for this.

She's a horrible person, but she's not a horrible person. She behaves like any normal girl. Polite, respectful, caring. she was a good daughter. She's just… what's the word, oh yeah! Bat-shit insane to the point of hearing voices in her head and talking to her reflection!

But in all fairness. She was still taro's daughter. The flower that bloomed from his seed. And even though she has done incredibly horrible things, taro still loved her like any parent should love their child, even if they are a murderer.

There is still is hope for ayana, however. She can be controlled, unlike her mother. She's willing to listen to reason and she can see the errors of her ways. She just needs guidance and support from those she cares about.

One day, maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow. But one day, she'll become a normal and upstanding young woman. A woman taro can look upon with pride and say "that's my daughter!" but for now, she's a murdering sadistic sociopath. That will change soon. Taro knows her goal, once she realizes that her senpai isn't that big of a deal, she'll move on. And if she doesn't, then ayana and this senpai's marriage will become a carbon copy of taro and seiko's. But in all honesty, that's not so bad. Taro lives a good life. It's really not as bad as it looks. A nice quiet home in the countryside of japan. A loving wife. A beautiful and intelligent child. It's more then taro ever thought he would get. He just had to learn to take the good with the bad.

"seiko, are you awake?" he asked his wife who must have been trapped in a deeply intoxicated form of slumber, due to her not responding to her husband.

He gently pushed her off of his chest and exited the bed. He grabbed his coat off the floor and walked toward the door. Before he made it, however. He stopped at the closet and opened it. Inside said closet was a battered and bruised old man, tied and bound with rope. He had a piece of duct tape around his mouth preventing speech.

This old man was in his late fifties. He was an old journalist who had personally investigated disappearances of high school students back when Taro and Seiko were teenagers. This was the reason for coming all the way to America. To hunt down and eliminate this poor old man.

Seiko sure can hold a grudge.

Taro removed the duct tape from the journalist's mouth.

"please! You have to help me! She's going to kill me!" he begged.

"i know. I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do" taro said to the captive.

"she obsessed over you. You're her husband. She'll listen to you! Please, you have the power to save my life!"

"no… I don't" Taro said as he walked out of the hotel room.

"NO, PLEASE! DON'T LEAVE ME ALONE WITH HER!"

Taro tried his hardest to ignore the cries of help from the journalist as he walked into the lobby.

"hello sir, are you enjoying your room?" the woman who maned the front desk asked.

"yes, it's really pleasant" he said in English.

"good, if you need anything, do not hesitate to ask" she nodded.

Taro then walked outside the hotel. He shivered as a cold gust of wind ran past. It was pitch black out here. Back in japan, it was most likely sunny and bright.

Taro pulled out his phone and made a call.

"hello? Daddy?" he heard his daughter on the other line.

"hello, ayana. It's me. I'm just calling to see if you're okay" he said.

"yeah, I'm fine" she said as her tone grew somber.

"is something wrong? You sound sad" taro asked.

"I'm fine, really. I just miss you and mother"

"we miss you too, we'll be home soon, I promise. We love you, ayana"

"i love you too" she hung up.

"who were you talking to, taro?" he heard his wife say in an intimidating yet sultry tone.

"n-nobody! I was just getting some fresh air!"

"are you sure? Were you talking to my sister again? Or did you come down here just to chat up that whore at the front desk?" she asked in a playful tone.

"what? No, I-"

"i don't even care. Come on! Back to bed with you!" she giggled as she pulled her husband back into the hotel.


The time was 3:56 PM. Japanese time. Location: Buraza town, Japan.

Yan-chan smiled warmly as she looked at her phone, happy that at least one of her parents took the time to acknowledge the fact that they have a daughter. She still wondered why only her father called though. Usually it's mother who is more concerned over yan-chan. Father just seems to… keep his distance.

But that was understandable after what yan-chan had done to him seven years ago. She still felt guilty about that. It ate her up inside. The worst part was that she couldn't even remember why she did such a horrible thing to her beloved father. Honestly, she didn't want to remember. If she did, then she might attack him again. And when mother gets a hold of her…

"you little brat! What?! Just because you're ten means you can assault your father!?"

"no… I'm sorry! Please forgive me, mommy!"

"SHUT UP! YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE WHORE!"

"NO! NOT THAT! PLEASE DON'T HURT ME AGAIN, MOMMY! I'M SORRY!"

she shivered as she recalled her… cruel punishment.

"you okay, beautiful?" jayson asked from his seat on the couch.

"yeah, I'm just… thinking"

"a hundred yen for our thoughts" he said.

"I'm just so foolish. I actually thought I could just tell senpai how I felt and he'd just go with it. I never even thought of a plan B" she admitted. "what about you, jayson? What if you never get your true love? Do you have a plan B?"

"yup" he said.

"you gonna tell me what it is?"

"nope" he said as he relaxed deeper into the couch while looking over to yan-chan. She didn't really look like she was enjoying her no-senpai-day. In fact, she looked rather somber and grim. Almost as if some unbearable ache was eating away at her. It was most likely the worm's fault. Jayson wished yan-chan would just take the fool captive already and… wait…

"that's it!" he shouted in his moment of brilliance.

"what's it?" yan-chan asked.

"you…ohh, don't you worry, beautiful. I am going to fix this. I'm gonna make your pain vanish" he said as he pulled her into the tightest and most heartfelt hug possible. She hugged back, enjoying the closeness and warmth of his body. It felt… soothing. It was like this simple gesture of friendship was ripping away any and all feelings of discomfort. She didn't know why, but she was somewhat saddened when he pulled away. She almost wanted to pull him back and threaten him not to leave.

"wait! I don't understand! What are you fixing?!" yan-chan asked as she followed him out the door.

"everything! Just trust me, beautiful!" he shouted as he ran off into the distance, leaving yan-chan's line of sight.

"jayson… I trust you… with my life" she said softly.


The time was 10:49 PM.

"do we really have to leave tomorrow morning?" Imouto asked as senpai finished packing the last box of his items into the moving van.

"yes, imouto. We have to get to tokyo early so we can get settled in our new home" senpai said as he shut the door on the large van with all of his families possessions neatly packed.

"but I don't wanna leave! I like it here!" imouto whined, causing her onii-sama to roll his eyes.

"if you like it here so much, then you'll love it in tokyo" he said.

"but what about all my friends?"

"you can make new friends and we still have tons of family members that are waiting to see how much you've grown. I think we have some cousins who are your age" senpai said as he tousled his little sister's hair. "i know moving is hard. But trust me, everything will be okay" he hugged her.

"okay, onii-sama" imouto said while returning the gentle embrace. "is something wrong, onii-sama? You look sad" she observed.

"i… hurt someone yesterday, and I feel awful for what I did to her. I feel even worst because I can't apologize. But… lets not focus on that. You need to get ready for bed, we have a big day tomorrow" senpai said as he brought imouto back inside their house and made sure she went straight to her room to gain the restful sleep she'd need for their big move.

"hey imouto?" he called his sister's name as she walked upstairs.

"yes, onii-sama?" she answered.

"don't ever fall in love. You're just gonna break someone's heart or someone is going to break yours" he warned. His sister looked at him with confusion in her eyes before continuing her walk upstairs.

senpai then sighed as he sat on the couch, which was the only thing left in the living room. Everything else was packed away in boxes, either waiting for the family at their new house or packed away in the large moving van outside

The living room was completely bare, empty. Ready for a new family to move in and call this place home. Senpai wished good fortune to whoever would live in this old place. It brought him so much joy and happiness in his three years here. He hoped this house was capable of making its new owner feel the same.

Senpai also wished he got the chance to apologize to ayana and say goodbye before he left. He still felt like shit after cruelly breaking her heart. He also wanted to forgive jayson for the punch he gave to senpai. In truth, he needed it. It gave him somewhat of a wake up call.

Senpai's train of thought crashed as he heard the ring tone of his phone.

"hello?" he answered.

"i need to talk to you. It's important" jayson was on the other line. He sounded worried.

"is everything okay?" senpai asked.

"just come to the school rooftop, I'll explain everything. You will finally know the truth" he hung up.

Senpai looked at his phone in confusion. Truth? What truth? What could jayson possibly know that would require an explanation? And why tell senpai now? one thing was for sure, though. whatever this was about, ayana obviously plays a big part in it. What? Does she only have three days left to live? Is she infected with some kind of magical disease that can only be cured by true loves kiss?

Okay, enough sarcasm. Senpai was seriously concerned even if he doesn't sound like it. Maybe this is his last chance to say goodbye to her.

Senpai took his jacket from the coat rack and ran out of his house into the dark streets.

He was always amazed at how fast night falls around here. It's usually pitch black by eight o'clock. It was so dark that senpai needed to use the flashlight application on his phone in order to see where he was going.

He soon arrived at the front gate of the school. Locked.

"hey, the school gate is locked" senpai sent a text to jayson.

"so hop the fucking fence, you sissy!" he responded in a rude way. That kinda reminded him of how Osana would respond. He missed her.

Senpai wasn't a climber. These small little toothpicks he calls arms were not meant for this. He could barely climb the rope at gym class! What made jayson think senpai could just hop over a seven foot gate!

He tried his best though. He put his foot in the gate and used his arms to pull his body weight up before he lost his balance and fell on the ground. He groaned in pain as his back fell on the concrete of the sidewalk. Okay. try again, senpai. You can do this. He tried once more, succeeding this time. He now stood at the top of the fence and jumped down.

Once he landed on the other side, he walked toward the entrance to the school. Locked, figures.

Senpai would have to climb up the fire escape.


Jayson stone sighed as he looked over the school's courtyard from the rooftop.

He couldn't believe he was about to do this. This was beyond dangerous and was incredibly risky. But that's the thing, jayson has always played it safe and stuck to the plan. Now look where it's gotten him. He's trapped in the friend zone, unable to escape. Putting himself close to his beloved has caused her to see him as a sibling.

Jayson wants a lover, not another sister.

But back on point. Jayson had learned that you cannot always follow planed routes if you wish to achieve your goal. Sometimes you need to throw caution to the wind and go with your gut. The risk is great, but if this goes as expected, the reward will be greater.

"okay… I'm here" senpai said as he faced jayson's back while deeply inhaling and exhaling, out of breath due to his long climb. "now what is it you wanna talk about?" he asked.

"she did it" jayson said in a deadpanned tone. He sounded a bit like yan-chan when she talks like that.

"who did what?" senpai asked, still out of breath.

"it's her fault. She's the reason they're all gone"

"stop being cryptic with me, man!" senpai shouted. "just tell me what's so important!"

"Ayana killed them all!" jayson shouted back.

"wh-what? Ayana-chan killed somebody?" senpai asked in shock.

"she didn't kill somebody. She killed everybody" jayson turned to senpai, grinning evilly.

"wha-"

"every girl you've ever talked to, all dead by her hand. Killed out of nothing but jealousy for any whore who tried to steal away her darling senpai" jayson continued grinning. Senpai looked horrified. "ohh, come on. Don't tell me you believed her whole sweet and innocent act. Because that's exactly what it was… an act. A guise, a way to hide what she truly is. You don't know ayana-chan the way I know her. You see an average teenage girl, I see a sadistic sociopath who disregards the worth of life"

"no… no, you're lying!" senpai shouted in anger. "i refuse to believe ayana-chan killed anyone!"

"then that proves how dim-witted and narrow minded you are" jayson insulted. "you may be asking why she killed anybody. What could her reason be for committing the ultimate crime? Well the answer was simple. She killed because she loves you. She killed because she wanted to please you"

"what?! B-but I never asked her to kill anyone!"

"of course you didn't, why would you? She's killed others because she saw them as threats to her love for you. She wanted to make sure that she was the only girl who owned your heart. Come on… you know what she is" jayson smirked.

"a yandere" senpai was chilled to the bone.

"that's right. Now you get it! Good for you! Clap… clap… clap" jayson said sarcastically as he clapped slowly. "you're her obsession. She thinks about you day and night. She has fantasies about you. To her, you're the reincarnation of Jesus Christ. To me, you're just a worm, a small little worm for me to squash beneath my boot"

"why are you telling me this now? You could have warned me!"

"i could have, but I choose not to. Besides, why would I betray my beloved like that?" jayson asked, revealing his inner nature with that one question. "oh yes! I am yandere for her! I've gladly killed for her and who wouldn't? she's just so… fucking hot! Sometimes I just wanna pin her to the wall and force myself on her without giving a damn about her consent. But I won't do that, because I'm not like your cousin, jaku. And yes, I did kill him. I broke every bone in his body before I began mashing my fist into his face. And while he was crying like a little bitch, I stomped my foot in his neck until he choked and died! Then I hid his body behind that shitty ramen restaurant!" jayson laughed.

"you… you're insane! You're a goddamned psychopath!" senpai shouted in terror.

"don't judge me! You were the one who was being stalked for two years straight without knowing. Everyone else knew though. I knew, your mother knew, your sister knew, the entire school knew!"

"who did she kill?" senpai asked. "no! Never mind! I don't wanna know!"

"she killed a lot of people. all of them, you knew. Most of them, female" jayson smiled.

"so what now? Are you gonna kill me? Am I your next victim?"

"no senpai. I can't kill you, no matter how hard I want to. Let me tell you a story" jayson said as he stepped closer to senpai. "two years ago, I was about to jump of this roof and kill myself. The reason? Not important. When I met ayana, something in my heart set off and I knew that she and I were destined to be together. But there's just one problem… you. My beloved doesn't care about me. All she cares about is you. Every day, every night. Senpai this! Senpai that! Senpai ate this for breakfast! Senpai went here today! But did she ever give a shit about me? NO!" he shouted violently.

Senpai just stood there, motionless. It was impossible. There was no way this was happening! This is all a bad dream! Senpai is on the couch, sleeping! This is just a nightmare!

"long story short, doesn't love me. But she loves you. did you know she had a shrine to you? Who does that? Even I never built an ayana shrine. Well… maybe I hung a few pictures on the wall, but I got rid of them as soon as she started coming into my room" jayson said. "you know, I had the chance to tell her my true feelings multiple times. I could have told her two weeks ago, a could have told her a month ago. But every time I tried, you interrupted. The best was when you snatched her away from me while I was two inches away from kissing her! Anyways, I've realized that no matter how hard I try, I'll never earn a place in her heart. But if I can't earn a place, I can buy one"

"buy one?" senpai asked.

"yes, I can pay for my place inside her heart by using you. You are the highest, most valued item in her sick little world"

"you're gonna sell me!?"

"I AM GOING TO HAND DELIVER YOU TO HER, PERSONALLY! AND MAYBE THEN SHE'LL LOVE ME!" he yelled at the top of his lungs.

"YOU'RE CRAZY! GET AWAY FROM ME! YOU DISGUSTING FREAK!" senpai shouted as he tried to run.

Jayson caught him by the collar on his jacket and punched senpai as hard as possible on the left side of his skull, knocking him unconscious.

Well… that was that. Now jayson just has to find a way to move the worm through the village without raising suspicion.

"ouch… my head"

"oohh, it looks like darling senpai can take a punch!" jayson laughed before he pinned senpai to the ground and pulled the syringe out of his pants.

Senpai quivered in fear. "what is that?!"

"ohh. what's wrong, senpai? You scared of a little needle? Makes sense. I've never seen you accept the booster shots the nurse gives out and you never participate in any of the blood drives. You shouldn't be afraid of a little needle though, you should be afraid of what's in the needle. This? It's a powerful mix of horse tranquilizer and LSD! Designed to keep you knocked out and high off your ass for weeks!" jayson shouted as he held the syringe close to senpai's neck. "i was originally going to use this on our lovely little yan-chan, in case she got violent with me. I called it my plan B. if I couldn't have her as my lover, then I'd make her my slave! It wouldn't have been easy though. The training would have been difficult. Ayana-chan is a tough girl. But I figured, after a few months of mental torture, her mind would break and she'd submit and become my loyal little pet and you'd become my punching bag"

senpai just kept shaking. This wasn't a dream. This was real.

"it would have required a lot of work though. I'd have to make sure she'd never escape, prevent anybody from filing a missing person report on her and then I'd have to massacre her entire family to make sure she'd have no home to run back to. And I'm not talking about just killing her parents, I'm talking about making sure she had nobody. I'd have to kill her grandparents, distant cousins, uncles and aunts. Basically, I would have committed genocide on the entire Satsujin-koibito bloodline. And all for just one woman" jayson said.

"you're dedicated, I'll give you that" senpai said. "I've never heard of someone going to such lengths for the person they love. That would actually be rather heartwarming if YOU WEREN'T FUCKING INSANE!"

"I know, right? But I digress. It's time for you to relax, senpai. Relax and..." jayson smiled as he injected the contents of the syringe into senpai's neck. "enjoy the ride..."
