Chapter 3- Hate Or Like?

7:30 Am in Kouta Tsuchiya's House.

"Ughhh, what time is it?,he said while rubbing his eyes, Oh crap! I'm going to be late!"

Kouta soon got dressed and headed toward Fumizuki Academy at 7:49 with only 11 more minutes left till school starts.

"Awww man! I'm never going to reach school in time!"

Suddenly Kouta turned around to see a green haired girl riding a bike.

"Heyyyyy! Muttsulini! You tired? Wanna ride on my bike?" She said.

"Ummmm…" Kouta didn't know what to say. "Is she here to tease me again? He thought. But he desperately needed a ride since he was so tired and exhausted from running.

Kouta thought it over… "Uhhhh… Sure!"

"Ok! Here, you drive while I sit on the front." Smiling her cat-like grin.

"Ok." He said "Then I could pedal more faster." He thought.

So Kouta drove himself and Aiko to school with just 2 minutes to spare.

"Thanks Aiko."

"You're totally welcome!"

At Class F, he arrived just in time.

At break, Akihisa asked why he was almost late.

"Sorry, I overslept again! Luckily I saw Aiko riding her bike and she asked me to ride with her and I said yes. But' I was the one that drove her since I can pedal more faster."

"WHAT? Are you serious? Aiko Kudou asked you?" Akihisa exclaimed.

"Why? What's wrong with me?" Kouta asked.

"I don't see any blood stains, so you didn't nose bleed when a girl asked you to ride a bike with her? Especially Aiko Kudou.

"I never noticed that, I never noticed that I didn't nosebleed. But why?" Kouta felt something strange, like a feeling.

"I think Kouta likes someone!" Akihisa said cheering gleefully.

"Nonsense! No one could ever like me I check girls out. I even almost peeked at the girls bathroom! I'm a perv! No girl could like me! And on top of that, I nose bleed real easy."

"But you didn't bleed when Aiko Asked you to ride with her! So you like her!"

Yujii overheard their conversation and, "Who likes who?

"Yujii!, I think Kouta likes Aiko!" Akihisa put an arm around Kouta.

Yujii glared at him all serious. "Have you finally admit it?"

"What? No! No girl could ever like me! Not even Aiko I don't like her she doesn't likes me. Are we clear?" Kouta shouted.

"Sureeeeee, whatever you say." Said Yujii being sarcastic.

What they didn't know is that Aiko and Shouko had been standing by the door of Class F the whole time the guys were were having their conversation. Aiko teared up and ran away back to Class A, Shouko coming after her.

"He doesn't like me." Aiko said as she tries to hold her tears.

"It's okay Aiko. Yujii doesn't even tell his love for me he keeps on denying it even when I said I love him. Said Shouko trying to calm her down. Try saying you like him maybe he was just lying or he wanted to keep it to himself."

"You think so?" Aiko said wiping her eyes.

"Yes. Don't worry about this too much."

"Ok." Then they headed into Class A.

At Class F, the guys were still talking about whether Kouta likes Aiko.

"So why didn't you nosebleed?" Asked Yujii.

"I don't know! All I was paying attention to is that I'm running late to school. I just wanted to get here on time so I caught a ride with Aiko."

Akihisa smiled, "Hehe, you my friend are one lovesick puppy."

"Grrrrr! You don't get anymore photos!" Kouta screamed.

"What! I'm sorry! You don't like Aiko! There!" Akihisa begged.

"Too late."

"NOOOOOOOOO! Where am I going to find Hideyoshi Pictures now?"

"I heard that." Hideyoshi suddenly said.

"What are we guys talking about?" He said.

"Ummmmm..-" Kouta's sentence was cut short by Yujii

"We were talking about someone Muttsulini likes."

"Oh are you talking about Aiko? Cause I think you make a great couple!" Hideyoshi said.

Kouta's eyes turned into rage."Stop it!"

"Have you ever evenhad a girlfriend before?" Akihisa asked.

Kouta's eyes turned away , "No, I guess I'm too busy taking pictures of girls instead of asking them out."

"Maybe that's why you can't admit your love for Aiko. Your afraid and you never had experience before. We'll help you." Yujii said.

"Humph! I don't need help!"

"You kinda do. Muttsulini."

"Shut up Yujii. You're the one that needs help! Why don't you just admit that you love Shouko!" Kouta argued.

"Grrrrrrr! This and that are different! I don't like a girl that's always trying to tazer me!"

Akihisa laughed, Yujii everyone can see you like her. Just yesterday you blushed when she gave you a flying kiss. Eveyone saw that. Right, Hideyoshi?"

Hideyoshi smiled, "It's actually true! Everyone in Class F saw it! And I think you wanted to kiss her back!

"Looks like I'm not the only one that's having trouble with love!" Kouta butted in.

"Prepare to DIE. ALL of you!" Yujii threatened.

After school, Kouta was getting ready to go home until…

"Hey Muttsulini!" Aiko Kudou gleamed.

Kouta's eyes shot up. "Hey Aiko.

"Whats with the face? You looked like you've seen a ghost."

"Nothing. You scared me. That's all."

"So wanna ride on my bike again?"

"Uhhh.. No thanks. I feel like walking."

"Ok I'll walk with you."

"Ummmm.." "What should I say?" Kouta thought.

"Sure I guess."

"Ok! Wait for me let me just get my bike."

As Aiko rolled her bike while walking with Kouta she thought maybe this might be her chance to confess to him.

"Umm Muttsulini.. Uhhhh.." Aiko said getting tongue-tied.

"What is it?" kouta asked.

"I have something to say to you. Ummmm…" " How should I say this? Aiko thought.

"Well I've always li-.. li- IVEALWAYSLIKEDYOU"

"I'm sorry. I didn't get that last part."

"IVEALWAYSLIKEDYOU!" Aiko again said it fast for Kouta to not understand.

"What? Speak slower."

"I LIKE YOU! I'VE ALWAYS LIKED YOU!" Aiko said looking straight into Kouta's eyes

"What?" Kouta said in shock.

What will happen next? Does Kouta feel the same or not?
