The Name: Monta

The Sentence: "You don't have an over-protective older brother, but you do have Mamori-san."

For a while now Sena had had this strange feeling that whenever he ever got too close with anyone, male or female, they would always seem to try and keep a distance from him after a while. They'd still be friends of course, but it seemed almost like they were afraid of him.

Of course that was completely weird, why would anyone be afraid of getting too close to him? Besides, all his friends on the American Football team were fine with being around him, so it probably wasn't Hiruma... Probably...

He'd decided to bring the topic up with Monta when they were walking to school together and Monta nodded along in understanding as Sena spoke, clearly he had noticed it too, or was really good at pretending to understand, either way it made Sena feel much better to get it all off of his chest.

"Say Sena, who exactly are these people anyways?" Sena closed his eyes in concentration and began listing off all their names. Had he bothered to keep his eyes open he would have noticed how Monta's face was slowly gaining a very shocked look.

"Sena, those were all people who had crushes on you." He said, wide eyed when Sena finally finished listing off the names. "What? No." "They were extremely open about it! I remember the girls used to make you bentos and then play Rock-Paper-Scissors so that they'd know who got to give you your lunch for the day." "... I never got a lunch from any girls..." "Exactly, someone persuaded them to not give it to you, someone is persuading people to stay away from you."

Sena paused and turned to Monta. "But if it were Hiruma-san I'm pretty sure the sound of gunshots would tip me off and it's not like I have an over-protective older brother or anything." Monta slung an arm around Sena's shoulder. "You may not have an over-protective older brother, but you do have Mamori-san. No offence to her or anything, but I'm pretty sure she'd be the one who's keeping your, uh, fans away from you." Sena looked at him curiously, one eyebrow raised.

"Why?" "Well, you two are practically siblings since you've known each other so long, and think about it. She's one of the few people who can stand up to Hiruma-san without fear and she has a lot of influence in the school because she'd on the discipline committee."

Sena slowly began walking forward, letting the information sink in. It actually made a great deal of sense for it to be Mamori.

"Monta." "Yeah?" "I think Mamori-neesan might be scarier than I ever thought she was." Monta patted him on the back. "Oh well, at least she keeps away all the people who want to sexually harass you. The girls were all nice about their crushes on you, but most of the guys just wanted to jump you."

"... What?"
