Chapter 3: Loneliness

I hope you all enjoy and please REVIEW!

You're still wary of Tezuka's feelings and unsure about your own. How were you supposed to tell whether a man like him was in love with you? You sighed as you looked out your classroom window. "You, get up and stand outside!" The teacher yelled at you.

"Pardon?" You say confused.

"Get out of my classroom you are not here to just ignore my lesson."
You could feel the foul words ready to erupt from your throat but you push them down. "Yes sir." You say through your clenched teeth.

You walk out of the classroom with everyone snickering at you. If this day couldn't get any worst. You waited outside of the classroom hearing your teacher's booming voice. "What are you doing here?"

You look up to see Tezuka with a hallway pass. "I got kicked out of my class for looking out the window." You tell him.

Tezuka blinks his eyes. "What?" He said confused.

You sigh. "I got kicked out of the classroom because I was staring out the window."
Tezuka started laughing at your misfortune. It was so out of character and it confused you. The teacher slammed the door open and glared at both you and Tezuka. "You think you can have that behavior here? Take your things and leave I don't want you to come back into class today."
Your jaw drops and you glare at your boyfriend. You sigh and head inside just to get your things. "That's what you get for being stupid." One of the girls who sit beside you whispers.

"Excuse me?" You say sternly, "Say that again."
"I told you get your things and get out now didn't I?" The teacher yelled, "You're being a disruption to the students who want to learn."

You glare at the girl and leave. The girls giggled at your misfortune. Tezuka was waiting outside of the classroom with a bit of a guilty look on his face. You sigh and smile. "You don't have to blame yourself for me getting kicked out of class the teacher was just pms-ing that's all." You joked.

Tezuka had his neutral look on his face. "It's hot." He said.

You fan yourself. "Yeah, I'm going to buy myself a drink, do you want something?"
He shakes his head. "I need to get back to class."
"Oh…alright then." You say a bit disappointed.

Tezuka nods his head once more and walks away back to his class. You sigh as you walk through the hallways listening to the sound of students and teachers speaking. You make your way down the stairs and find the vending machine. You buy yourself a juice and drink it in one go. "Ah!" You say refreshed, "That was delicious!"
You looked around to find no one saying anything to you. You fell lonely all of a sudden. You look around the corridor to find no one. You sigh and put on your out door shoes and go for a little stroll. You walk across the dirt path looking through several windows with the underclassmen were in. One looks at you and then turns away another makes a funny face and makes you laugh.

The bell rings and then students explode from their classrooms and run to the cafeteria to get their first choice on food. You walk passed the on coming crowd to the stairwell. Up two flights and reach the last door. You twist the knob and it opens. You feel the fresh breeze and were a bit shocked to see your kohai Echizen Ryoma there. "What are you doing here Echizen-Kun?" You ask.

He looks at you and then turns back to look up at the blue sky. "Looking at the sky." He says.

You nod you head and sit down with your back leaned against the wired fence. "It's beautiful isn't it?" You asked.

You don't get a reply. You laugh at yourself. Echizen was a lot like Tezuka in some ways. "What's so funny Sempai?" Echizen said curious.
You look at his to find him looking at your curiously. "You're a lot like Tezuka." You say.

He looks a bit angry and turns his head to face the heavens once more. You look up at the sky as well admiring the passing clouds. The door to the roof clicked open and you looked to see Tezuka emerging from them. "Hello." You greeted him.

He nods his head in a polite manner and hands you a brownie. "You like those right?" He asked.

You look at it and then smile. "I do, but what is it for?" You asked.

"For getting you kicked out of your class."
You frowned. "I told you already that-"
"I know." Tezuka said interrupting you, "Just eat it."

You sigh but are grateful anyways that he was even thinking about you. "Thank you." You say as you unwrapped the brownie.

He nods his head. "Do you want some Echizen-Kun?" You offer.

He shakes his head. You look at Tezuka but you already know that Tezuka isn't one for sweets. You take a bite of the delicious treat and savored the taste in your mouth. "They're delicious!" You say happily.

Tezuka nods his head and sits beside you. Soon you feel his head resting on your shoulder. You turn to see that he is indeed sleeping. You blush a bit nervous since this was his first time falling asleep on you. You turn to where Echizen is but find that he wasn't there anymore. You sigh but smile seeing his unguarded expression.

With Tezuka beside you even if he didn't say anything, you enjoyed his company. If everyone else had left you…you wouldn't feel so lonely with him beside you. Because you've fallen in love with him.
