If you chose Kukai….
I looked between the four guys who waited patiently for my answer. Kukai would be the best choice, I felt most comfortable with him and he was a really nice guy. I handed over my belongings to my driver and told him I'd call him when I was ready to go.
"Souma-kun, could you be my tour guide today?"
"You chose Kukai!" Ikuto exclaimed in disbelief.
"I was sure she would choose me." Nagihiko said in disappointment.
"Now, now." Tadase lightly smiled and patted his shoulder.
"Well, shall we go then, Hinamori?"
"Yeah!"
He offered me his arm and I linked mine up with his.
"Awh, look they're a couple!" Ikuto claimed.
"They're so cute." Nagihiko added smirking.
"They do look good together." Tadase commented.
Choice A: Hold Kukai's arm more closely to tease them.
Choice B: Tell them to shut up.
Choice C: Take your arm away from Kukai.
Choice A Outcome:
It surprised me how amused I was by their comments. I didn't even blush! So instead, to satisfy them, I held Kukai's arm more closely and rested my head on his shoulder. I could hear Ikuto, Tadase, and Nagihiko gasp in the background but then whistle in response. Kukai stiffened at my sudden actions and walked uneasily. I immediately loosened my grip on him.
"I'm sorry," I apologized. "I just wanted to tease them."
"It's ok," His cheeks were slightly pink. "It was just sudden."
"Hasn't a girl ever done that to you before?"
"Well, yeah. But relatives. Not.."
"Friends?"
"Er..right."
"Well, I'm sorry to make you feel uncomfortable."
"N-No. It's fine." He stopped me from detaching my arm from his.
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah, Yeah." He mumbled.
"Ok, then.."
Choice B Outcome:
Feeling a little annoyed and noticing Kukai's reactions I yelled, "SHUT UP."
"Oooo, we made Mrs. Souma mad." Ikuto taunted.
"Cut it out." Tadase advised nicely.
"Yeah, before she comes over here." Nagihiko said harshly.
"Oh what would a pipsqueak like her do?"
"Ikuto!" The two said in a horrified tone.
"What?"
Kukai detached himself from me and walked up behind Ikuto.
"Er..Ikuto..?" Nagihiko said, his voice faltering.
"What?" I could tell Ikuto was getting annoyed.
Kukai promptly slapped the back of his head.
"What the hell?" Ikuto yelled.
"You shouldn't pick on Hinamori." Kukai said sternly.
"What are you?" Ikuto pouted. "Her boyfriend or something?"
WHACK.
"Ok, ok. I'll shut up." Ikuto groaned.
"Good." Kukai said, clearly happy he won the discussion.
"You guys are such kids." Nagihiko complained.
"Can't you play nice for once, Neko-baka." Tadase scolded.
"But they're too much fun to mess around with."
Choice C Outcome:
Automatically, their comments made me self conscious and highly embarrassed. So within three seconds, I detached my arm from Kukai's and put some distance between the two of us. I could hear Ikuto's satisfied laughter.
"Awh look, we made her embarrassed!" Ikuto chuckled.
"She's that type of girl, eh?" Nagihiko sounded as if he was studying me.
"You guys are so meddlesome."
"Like you wouldn't meddle if it meant Amu changing her mind and choosing you."
"I wouldn't do that!" Tadase retorted back to Ikuto.
"Let's not start a fight again." Nagihiko acted as referee.
"I wouldn't call it a 'fight'." Ikuto replied plainly.
"And why not?" Tadase exclaimed.
"You can't punch or kick well and you always protect that pretty little face of yours."
"I can fight you just fine!" Tadase fumed.
"I think we should go." Kukai whispered to me.
"But it's getting interesting." I whined.
"Trust me, you do not want to be here when Miss Sanjo gets pissed at them." Kukai grinned and ruffled my hair.
He took my hand and led me toward the entrance of the school.
Contiution of story:
The school was masterfully designed so that the school didn't look boring, but fun and intimidating. The front where we entered was all glass and the sunlight came through color stained windows making the lobby look like a rainbow. I followed Kukai into the lobby like a lost puppy and listened inattentively to all he had to say about the building. Apparently the locker room where I could change my shoes was near the very entrance behind a worn out wooden door. He told me how that door was constantly opening and closing, so be careful when you proceed in or out. I took extensive mental notes on all he had to say on the main office who which had some very strict policies.
"Don't ever try to bend the rules." He said gravely.
"Why? Are the students watched that closely?"
"Yes." He didn't know I was joking.
I gulped, "Oh."
That's when he started to laugh, "I'm just joking, Hinamori. Well, sort of. The teachers aren't your regular teachers. They're highly interactive with they're students; each and every one of them. So I wouldn't try texting in class or passing notes."
My expression lightened up, "Oh, ok. I guess that makes sense."
"Good girl." He commented jokingly. "Did you get your schedule yet?"
"Not that I know of."
"Tsukasa-san didn't give you it yet?"
"Nope." I shrugged my shoulders. "..or at least not that I know of."
"Well, I hope we have some classes together!" His smile was always so bright, it was so comforting.
"Anything else about the lobby I should know?" I asked inventively.
"This lobby is the only place where the bathroom is shared. So be warned." Kukai's voice sounded worried.
"Shared?" I led that sink in. "You mean both boy and girl..?"
"Yeah, so be prepared to see stuff if you ever use it."
"I see." I wasn't afraid to see what a boy had, but it was still embarrassing to think I might walk in on them if I ever have to use that bathroom.
"Right. And over here," He pointed to a corner of the room where it was shielded from site of the main office. "Is where a lot of couples come to make out."
"Thanks for the heads up." I said eying up the corner.
"That room there in that corner is where a bunch of guys have come out of the closet.."
"Well, you know being in an all boys school can cause that."
"No hate here." He smiled.
"Shall we keep going?" I asked.
"Sure." He smiled and pulled my hand allow through the double doors near the office.
That's when I noticed we were still holding hands. It isn't the first time I've held hands with a guy, but it was still nerve racking when you become aware of it. Kukai's hand was warm and covered my small one easily. He had a steady pull on me and had a good muscle line for his frame. He was your typical cute boy, maybe even hot if matured just a little more. But who was I to say he wasn't mature enough already? Lost in my thoughts, I barely listened to what he had to say about the classrooms here. Kukai looked so happy to show all his knowledge of the school and he brought me into his favorite classroom.
"This classroom is almost always empty, so feel free to come here." He looked lovingly at the room.
"Why is almost nobody ever here?"
"This is where the extra school supplies is held as well as where detention is held. So the teachers don't even bother coming in here during school hours."
"Not even for lunch detention?"
"Heck no. They only have after school. Skip detention of any kind and you earn yourself a two day suspension."
"Isn't that a little harsh?"
"Not at all. The school is pretty lax about their detentions."
"What do you mean?"
"As long as you check in they don't care anymore. The teacher who supervises the sessions doesn't notice at all if you sneak out ten minutes later." He winked at me. "That's the suggested leave time. Don't be the last to leave or the second to last. Leave early on or else you may be caught."
"I see, thanks." I replied gratefully. "This is really helpful."
"Anything to help you out, newbie."
"Shut up!" I giggled.
We heard the door start to slide open and Kukai started to silently panic. He pulled me to the farthest corner of the room and rushed us behind the bookcase in between the books and storage closet. He pulled me to the ground between his legs and hugged me close to him, compressing the space we took and the visibility others could have. My face got flushed and we could hear someone looking for something.
"I swear I heard someone talking in here." A male voice said a bit confused.
He soon gave up and left the room, closing the door again. Kukai waited five minutes before releasing me.
"This room is sorta off limits during school hours."
"I kinda guessed." I laughed lightly at his embarrassed expression.
"But almost no one ever checks so just as long as you stay quiet no one will think you're here."
He pondered over something for a second.
"Also, try to be in the desks near this area in case a teacher comes in here."
"I will."
"I don't think there's nothing else I have to say about this building." He then started to stutter. 'S-So, shall we g-go?"
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing." He then released his arms from being around me and tried to scoot his body away from me, but only succeeded in bumping his head against the bookcase.
I stood up immediately and bent over to check his head, "Are you ok?"
"Y-yeah." Kukai's face was beet red.
This time I ruffled his hair and smiled down at him, "You're so cute."
"That's the last thing a guy wants to be described as."
"Let's go on?" I offered him my hand.
"Yeah." He took it and slowly led me out of the room.
"So where to next?"
"Hmm.."
We walked out of the main building and stood at the very middle between two to six buildings. This middle area was arranged to look like a garden and the walk way was fashioned out of red bricks. Th biggest of the buildings was one with blinking lights that dictated that it was a mall.
"There's a mall?"
"Yeah." He says. "But first let me give you a general overview of these buildings."
"He looked to see if I was listening.
The first building he pointed to was red bricked.
"The building right here next to main building on your left is the literature major building for the serious courses focusing on that."
He pointed to the next building, it was blue bricked.
"That's the math major building, good tutors there."
The building next to that was green.
"This is the technology major building. Lots of cool stuff is made there for the students to use."
"That sounds like so much fun!"
"It is." He smirked.
The next building was purple bricked and had class at the entry way.
"This is the music major building. This building is always loud, but good for free concerts."
"Do you go there often?"
"Yeah, my best friend studies there."
"You must be a good friend."
"To put up with his ass, you better believe it!"
"Who's your best friend?"
"Tsukiyomi Ikuto."
"HIM?"
"He may appear to be smug, but he's a good guy."
"I guess.." I sighed. "But he acts like a jerk."
"At first, let him get to know you. In no time he'll be a good friend to you."
"If you say so."
The building next to the music major building was entirely made of steel and had a telescope sticking out of it.
"This is the agronomy building."
The next building was made of brick and metal. There was a dome top that was entirely made of glass.
"This is where the school's athletes work out and also where regular students can work out."
"Are there any national competitors here?"
"…"
"Kukai?"
His expression was so grim.
"No, but there are a few hopefuls."
"Oh well I'd like to meet them one day."
"Why?" He looked taken aback.
"I'm not sure, but I always wanted to play with a national competitor."
"Are you any good at sports?"
"I'm decent."
"Well, if any of my buddies make it, I'll schedule you a game."
"That'd be awesome!"
"Anyway, next to that is science building, then law, and the mall."
"What's in the mall?"
"The cafeteria, food mall, grocery, clothes shops, school supplies store, and a book store."
"Store brands or school funded stores?"
"Store brand."
"THIS PLACE IS AWESOME!"
"So what do you want to do now?"
"Huh?"
"That's all I have to show you.."
That's when my stomach chose to growl loudly.
"Hungry, are we?"
Choice A: "Just a bit." I smile weakly at him.
Choice B: "N-No, I'm fine." I smile confidently at him.
Choice C: "I am but it's ok." I wait for him to reply.
Choice A outcome:
I look down at the ground in defeat and look back up at him.
"Just a bit." I smile weakly at him.
No use in hiding it now.
"Let's grab some lunch then, shall we?"
"Thanks, but i have no money on me…"
"I'll pay then." He acted unfazed by my comment.
"B-But.."
"It's no problem, Hinamori."
"I'll pay you back." I pouted.
"I don't need payment." He saw my determined look and sighed. "I''ll just consider this a favor and I'll for one in the future."
"Alright. It's a deal!"
"Good, now shall we head inside?"
We stood at the entrance of the mall.
Choice B outcome:
I felt embarrassed that my stomach growled so loudly and tried to ignore my stomach's cry for food.
"N-No, I'm fine." I smile confidently at him.
"Are you sure?" He asked curiously. "I've never heard a stomach growl so loudly."
"Thanks." I said sarcastically.
"I didn't mean it like that!"
"Just for that, you're buying me lunch." I say dutifully.
"But I thought you said..'
"Walk forward." I ordered and we proceeded into the mall.
"Yes, ma'am." He responded immediately and followed me inside without hesitation.
Choice C Outcome:
"I am but it's ok." I waited for him to reply, but instead we both had an awkward silence.
That silence was then interrupted by his own stomach growling like crazy. He blushed and then looked down at me. The instant our eyes met we broke into a laughing fit.
"Are you sure you're not hungry?"
"Erm…"
"Because I sure am hungry.."
"Well.."
"I could really go for something sweet like chocolate teriyaki or maybe a steak bento box.."
"FINE FINE!" I yelled feeling my stomach growl again.
"I win!" He cheered.
"But you pay, ok?"
"Why?"
"Because I don't have any money." I say sheepishly.
"Then, I'll buy you anything you want."
"Really?"
"Do I look like I'm lying?"
"Nope." I smiled at him.
"Then, I'll consider this a favor." He smirked and stood closer to me. "And I do intend to collect on that."
"R-right."
"So now that's done with, let's get some lunch?"
"Alright!"
Continuation:
When we went inside, I was instantly stunned. The inside of the building was actually four to five stories tall and the inside was insanely colorful. You could smell the food coming from the top floor. The first floor was full of attractions and a fountain was stationed in the middle. It was beautiful and had color tinted water flowing through it. The attractions included a fortune telling booth, a stage for music, food samples from the top floor. A computer lab and a lounge area. Kukai showed me a clear glass elevator and we took it up to the top floor. I looked outside the glass like a child looking at a toy for the first time.
"Now you're being the cute one."
"Huh?"
"Is the mall really that cool?"
"Yes!"
"Well, once you have time, i'll go around with you." Kukai offered with his trademark smile.
"Really?" I reacted gleefully.
"No problem!" He gave me the thumbs up and i instantly tackle hugged him.
That's when Kukai fell over. The elevator had stopped and his back was to the door so when I tackle hugged him he lost balance and fell through the open doors.
"I told you that they couldn't keep their hands off each other!" I hear Ikuto say.
I looked up and saw Ikuto, Tadase, and Nagihiko looking down at us. That's also when I realized Kukai was underneath me. We tried to get up at the same time and bumped heads. Which also meant we bumped faces, which ended up in an accidental kiss.
"Wow." tadase said.
"That was eventful." Nagihiko noted.
"Quite a show." Ikuto chuckled.
Finally I got up and walked away in a daze. My hunger was totally gone as I touched my lips. That was surprising. I took the escalator all the way down to the ground floor and called my driver to pick me up. The rest of the day passed by in a haze. That was a cool tour though..
