- -The Beginning-

You and Monika continue to stare at each other. Green emerald eyes into [E/C]. The staring contest was taking its toll, so you decide to break the silence while ignoring the whispering your fellow peers were making.

"Uh... Sorry for bumping into you, Monika" you say while offering a hand to Monika.

"O-oh. It's nothing! Don't worry about it!" She says flustered but still smiling brightly while grabbing your hand. You have seen this kind of face before. It looked as if she was forcing herself to smile rather than doing it out of habit. Before you could ask if something was wrong Monika's "friends" appeared.

"Oh my God! Are you ok?!" One of them starts asking. Monika continues to reassure them that everything was fine while you began leaving. Once you were about to turn, you turned back to see Monika with an expression that you still couldn't figure out.

Maybe it was just your imagination.

Once lunch ended you begin to walk back to class. Two more classes and the school day was finished. You smile at the thought of this. You were hoping for this moment until you remembered that you had to have a discussion with Ms. [T/N] and thus your smile disappeared. While walking you couldn't help but think about Monika. She seemed different than her usual self and with all your internal strength, you couldn't forget the face she made.

The face of emptiness.

You tried thinking about the possibilities of what could have happened but gave up shortly after. You continued to walk towards your class with your thoughts until you couldn't help but hear some of your peers whispering to each other while giving quick glances towards your direction. Now, you have kept a low profile in school, so your existence wouldn't be noticed so the possibility of them talking about you was close to non-existent. Slightly confused, you shook it off.

You get to your seat while feeling uncomfortable with the stares everyone is currently giving you, but you try to brush them off. Once the teacher came, class had started, and everyone's attention drifted else where.

*RING*

*ugh... I must have slept through the entire lesson. Thank god I wasn't caught...* You thought to yourself. You begin to pack your things and try to head out until someone stopped your way.

From all the people that could ruin your day any further it had to be him.

It was John.

"Can I talk to you outside the class, [Y/N]?" John asks smiling.

You sighed. You never enjoyed Johns presence. He was the popular, decent mark, and athletic guy with blonde hair and an average build but those reasons weren't why you disliked him. You disliked him due to the fake personality he gives.

"Sure. I have to talk to Ms. [T/N] afterwards anyways" Both of you walk out of the classroom with your bags.

"What did you do to her?" He asked with steel like eyes piercing you.

"I'm sorry?" You asked.

"Don't act like an idiot, [Y/N]. You're currently the talk of the school. People saw how you purposely knocked into Monika."

And then it struck you. People must have gossiped about your interaction with Monika. You need to defuse the situation as quickly as possible.

"Your misunderstanding the situation, John. I was casually walking somewhere while looking elsewhere and I collided with her. Nothing was done on purpose." You say without missing a beat. John looks at you, trying to analyze something but later gives up.

"Whatever. Next time watch where you're going" he says while shoving you to the side. You sighed. You did not expect an interaction with Monika to arise these many conflicts, but she was popular and mostly liked in the school, so you could assume why.

You make your way towards the office to meet Ms. [T/N]. While getting there you decide to mentally prepare yourself for the yelling that will eventually happen. *Hopefully she won't punch me this time* you thought.

You eventually made it to the Devils chamb- you mean the office and knocked waiting for an answer.

"Come in" a voice that sounds like Ms. [T/N] says. You go in to see a slightly irritated teacher.

"You're late, [Y/N]" She says while preparing her punch.

"W-wait Sensei! It's not my fault. I was held back due to personal reasons! I swear!" You quickly reply.

After that outburst, [T/N] showed a soft and kind expression. "Everything alright? You getting into any social arguments is impossible" She says while giving a quick jab towards you.

"Everything is fine, Sensei. Now, what did you need me for?" You quickly change the topic. You weren't the best with opening yourself. You didn't trust anyone and never bothered to show any of your problems.

"Ah right. I have been reviewing your status and as much as your grades are doing good, you will need to join at least one club to pass" She says while inspecting a piece of paper. You had secretly hoped that you could have gotten away with that one requirement but as it turns out that was not possible.

You sighed in disappointment. [T/N] notices this and says, "Don't worry! I have the perfect club in mind for you" proudly puffing her chest after your sentence.

You had a bad feeling about this.

She takes you to the third floor of the building to a room that you haven't seen in a while, but you couldn't put your finger to it.

[T/N] opens the door and you see her.

Green emerald eyes to [E/C]. You knew who this was.

"Monika?"

"[Y/N]?!"
