Cul's POV (Cul's time to shine)
I got out of the house with my driver following me. As I entered the car, I saw a sky blue towel. I blushed as I thought of Hasune's boyfriend. I have no idea why but the pass few days, he just appears in my mind. ""You should be more careful, you're a lady not a man. It'd be a shame if someone as pretty as you got hurt, wouldn't it," he says.
Every time I think of him my face warms up and my heart starts beating really fast. "Ma'am, we have arrived," my driver said. "Thank you, Gonzo-san," I said as I left the car. I started walking, still wondering to why I've been acting so strange lately. M-maybe I have a heart disease?!
I bumped into someone, causing my bag and things to fall. I was so pissed, I look up and screamed, "What the fuck is wrong with you?! Can't you see that I was walking?!" To my shock, it was Hasune's boyfriend. "I'm sorry, I didn't see you," he said, smiling. I started blushing again as he reached his hand over to me. I slapped his hand away and stood up. "You're Cul, right?" he asked. "How did you know? Your goody-two shoes girlfriend told you?" I said.
"I'll be honest to you, I'm not Hasune's boyfriend," he said. Happiness came all over me and I stopped myself from smiling. "Why'd you tell me that for?"I said. "Because…you don't really look like a bad person. In fact, you seem like one of those damsels in distressed," he says. "You're wrong, I'm a warrior not a damsel," I said glaring daggers at him. I stomped away angrily, as I entered the class. I saw a blonde haired girl sitting next to Hasune-san. Who's she?
I sat down in my seat and sighed. "Cul, where the fuck were you?" Neru asked. I was about to reply when she interrupted me, "Anyway that isn't important. The problem is that her boyfriend transferred here and we couldn't get anywhere near her!". "Neru, not everything is about Hasune-san. I'm not in the mood to talk about this," I replied. Neru stomped away in a bratty like matter with Haku following behind.

I bumped into Mikuo again and he invited me to eat lunch at the school garden. I agreed since Neru's being bitchy for not getting her way. "Mikuo, Hatsune Mikuo," he said smiling. "Why do you always smile?"I asked. "Why are you always grumpy? I've never seen you smile," he replied. "I chose to be grumpy, deal with it," I said. He gave a soft laugh, "I love your enthusiasm". "Why were you absent?" he added.
I almost choked on my food, my face heating up once more. "It doesn't matter! Why are you even so nice to me?!" I shouted. "Why? Maybe because you have a sad story of your own that's why you bully Hasune-san," he said. I was shocked; I stood up and faced him, "What do you know? You're filled with sunshine and happiness,"
"Hasune-san is really lonely and sad. I don't know why you bully her but just so you know, she doesn't enjoy being bullied. She's still a human after all," he said. I was speechless and I just left him there. I went to the rooftop and breathed in the fresh air. I was about to leave when I heard soft sobs. I turn to the left and saw Hasune crying there. Normally I would've just left but Mikuo's words haunted me.
I felt guilt and only now I wonder why had I bullied her? What had she done to me?
I sat beside her and she looked up at me. Her eyes filled with fright as she try and move away. "I hate you," I said. Startled, she looks at me in the eyes. "I hated you because you seem so happy and all the guys like you. You were cute and pretty while I was born looking… scary," I said. It was quiet for a while so I started talking again.
"My parents were always going around the world for business matters and all those shit. When they do stay at home, it seemed like I don't exist. They don't ask how I am, how well is my studies or if I am even still alive! I was so lonely and upset. I never had a hug, a kiss, or an "I love you". One day, I hit someone and it made me feel better… I wanted someone to suffer like I did," I said. The bell rang and she stood up and walked away slowly.
"I'm sorry," I said.
She turned back and looked at me. The unexpected happens and she hugs me tightly. "Cul, you've never ever had a hug before, right? So here's one especially for you," she says. Tears fell from my eyes as I hugged her back. Warm. I felt warmth and secure with the hug. "So, this is how a hug feels like," I said. Something starts dripping out of my eyes. And as Miku pulled away, I touched my face. I was crying….
I couldn't make Cul evil forever. There is no Miku x Mikuo moments in this chapter but don't worry it'll have one soon enough ^^ I'm planning to make a new story called "Love Bite".
