90. Relief

"Len!" Rin suddenly bashes through the door of her friend's room.

The boy jumps so fast that his glasses nearly fall off his face. Adjusting them, Len blinks at the girl in surprise. "W-what?" Her face is bright red, and she looks like she's about to kill him. Which, usually, doesn't mean anything good.

"How dare you not tell me about this?! I'm your best friend for God's sake! I should be the first to know!" Rin spouts, her teeth grinding together loudly.

"What? Rin, what are you talking about?" The boy inquires, closing the book in his lap.

"You! Dating!" Rin huffs. "Why didn't I know that you were dating Mizki?"

Len is silent for a total of two seconds. "I'm not dating Mizki!" He says in protest, his face heating up. "I don't date, Rin, you know that."

"Huh?" Rin blinks in confusion. "But apparently Mizki's going around saying you two are going out."

Len facepalms. "I actually rejected her," He admits sheepishly. "So maybe it's a revenge thing? Don't believe her," He advises.

Rin is quiet. "So…" She fidgets. "You aren't dating anyone, then?"

"Nope."

Len is bewildered at the relief on her face. "Um. Good." She says, before backing out of his room slowly. "Then, pretend this never happened. Alright? Alright." She walks away quickly.

Len has just reopened his book when she reappears, her mouth in a thin, terrifying smile that sends chills down his spine.

"...I better not find out you're lying, or I'll hunt you down." She intones in a creepy voice, her eyes glowing with malicious intent. "I'm your best friend, and there's no way some dirty girl is gonna touch you on my watch, Lenny. Hehehe... "

The blonde has never been so relieved to watch his friend walk away from him.
