Author's Note: I would like to thank everyone who has been giving me support on this Fanfic, it helps me so much and it makes me want to put out more chapters for you guys. I will try to puut out chapters when I can, but I do have school and if you're in high school, you'd know it can be hard to balance everything. Once again, thank you for the support, and there will be more to come :)
Yoshiki stared at Ayumi as they walked into the hallway. Ayumi had a nervous look on her face and it made Yoshiki hectic on what she wanted to talk to him for. They had exited the cafeteria, and they were all alone. Suddenly, Ayumi stopped and said, "Look, I'm sorry Kishinuma." She seemed a little down that she was apologizing, usually for him it was the other way around. "I went a little to hard on you and I'm sorry."
"Wait," Yoshiki started, holding up his open hand. "So yesterday, you decide to flip out at me when you could have not caused the whole situation by just saying no, then, you smash a bottle over my head, knock me out, and flip out at me again? And now you expect me simply forgive you? Ayumi Shinozaki, you may do good in school, but the way your mind thinks just doesn't make sense to me." After he said this, Ayumi gasped in shock. Yoshiki never stood up to her like this.
"I - I," Ayumi stuttered. She couldn't find words in her mouth to say. She just stood there trying to think of what to say.
Realizing that she was speechless, Yoshiki decided to continue with his rant. "Speechless, are we?" He asked in a serious tone of voice. "Try having a taste of your own medicine. How does it feel, to spill your heart out to someone, and then have them just shit on you? That's how I felt Ayumi. But ten times worse, because no matter how hard i tried, you'd still despise me, push me away. You did this to me twice, and then you smashed a glass bottle over my head. I just can't take it anymore, I'm tired of you pushing me around and thinking nothing of it. I don't know why I keep coming back to it." By now, Ayumi had tears in her eyes. She never knew how he felt, and now she was coming to realization of what she was doing to him. "For the past two years," he said. "I've dealt with you being head over heels for my best friend. And I'd been waiting that long for that to happen. It hurt more than it looked." Ayumi was still speechless. How could she be so blind, and try to come up with an apology. All she had was empty words.
"I'm s-so sorry, Yoshiki," she said in tears. She reached out to hug him and was stopped by him.
"No." He said coldly. Ayumi didn't understand why he denied her. Didn't he still like her?
"But-" she started, but was cut off once again.
"NO!" Yoshiki shouted above her voice. She felt like a fire that had just been smothered. "I know what you want. You just like a game of chase. Well I quit, I'm done chasing you around. You say you'll hug me now, but tomorrow, we'll be back to the same old routine." Yoshiki was completely right. He wasn't the smartest in school, but he knew what game Ayumi was playing. "And I'm done," He muttered as he walked away back towards the cafeteria. Ayumi still couldn't get over it. She was still trying to process it all.
She decided to just go to her locker and head to class, she had lost her appetite after what had just happened. With that, she walked away from the scene in tears.
Yoshiki headed into the cafeteria, his head in his hands. "What did I just do," he asked himself. He pushed her away, and he felt bad although he knew what he did was the right approached his friends table and sat down beside them silently.
"Hey Yoshiki," Morishige greeted him. "Where's Shinozaki?" After he asked him, all of his friends were all staring at him. They were all kind of curious.
"I'm not sure, I kinda walked away from her," He replied blankly. There were a few ways they could have taken this, but he seemed like he was not very sure of himself, as in questioning his actions. The group decided to just leave it at that, and continued eating their lunch until they had to part ways and go to class.
At the bell, Yoshiki and Satoshi found themselves walking to class together, silently, until Satoshi broke the ice. "What happened with Shinozaki?" He asked looking up at his friend. Yoshiki was staring at his own feet when the question was asked, but soon looked back at Mochida.
"She tried apologizing to me, and I finally stood up to her. I gave her a taste of her own medicine." He didn't want to give him anymore details than that, and went back to staring at his feet. Satoshi didn't expect him to actually stand up to Ayumi. Although she deserved it,s he was the only one that he wouldn't stand up to.
On Yoshiki's side though, it hurt him to do that to her. He couldn't stand seeing her like that, but he had to give her a feel of the day in the life of Yoshiki. She didn't understand how he felt when she did that, and maybe he had a better chance with her now. But another thing Yoshiki was considering was maybe moving on from Ayumi. It was a hard decision for him due to the fact that he had two years invested in her, but it'd open him up to the world, let him see some of the other fish that the ocean had to offer. In a way, maybe it would be good for him to move on, but one thing he knew for sure was that he had a big decision to make - Should he try to get Ayumi, or move on?
Another Author's note: I'm going to be honest with you guys, I'm not quite sure what Yoshiki is going to do here. What do you think he should do? Stay or go? Hopefully I can get the next chapter up in the next few days and you can find out what happens! Once again, thank you for supporting this Fanfic, and leave a review in the meantime. Don't forget to follow and favorite if you haven't already (only if you want to), and I'll see you next time! Bye :)
