…Ok, class is right in front of me and I am holding Miura's juice box. Go in there, pass her seat, quickly drop the juice on her table, then go back to my seat. I already know what could, will, happen if I get caught but I am confident enough that my years of blending into the background to avoid unwanted attention will carry me through this.
… Granted I would be more confident if my Hachiman skills were working as they should…
Damn, should have asked why it isn't working at that damn developer.
…No use crying about it. The bell rang just now while I'm standing beside the wall, so this should be the most perfect time to do it since everybody would be more focused on going back to their own seats.
Well, in theory that is… My jobs taught me that no matter how much you carefully plan and prepare for every problem that might arise… It won't be enough, hell it might even make it worse.
…May those poor unlucky bastards burn in hell.
"…Enough with the backstory…" I quietly hiss out, really fucking tired of whatever being forcing me to remember as a backstory, again, while beating the memories back into the prison before more of them break out.
I shake my head then slowly open the door to peek inside. Hmm, less people still standing than I would have liked but good enough, so I normally open the door and walk in.
Good, Miura is over at Hayama's place and the path to her seat is clear yet there are enough people acting as a wall for me. No one is looking at me and it's just a straight path then place i –
"Hikio!" I flinch at the loud call -fuck that jinx!- then slowly glance back to see her looking straight at me while frowning. She notices my glance and makes her way over to me.
…Look, I know that you're used to the spotlight but I would really appreciate it if you don't call me out when other people are around! See what your words caused?! Everybody is looking right at us, no at me! With their judgmental eyes as if asking why are you calling me, a disgusting waste of air! Fucking stop that! You don't have the right to judge me!
I DID IT TO SURVIVE! STOP LOOKING AT ME! YOU –
"Hikki!"
A familiar yet unfamiliar softness engulfs my hands, prompting me to flinch and see Ko – no Yuigahama right in front of me. I look down and see her holding my hands.
I try to break free from her hold but I can't, making me frantically look around to help me, yet all I see are the shocked gazes looking right at me.
But I can still see the judgmental looks.
"Hikki! Like calm down!" I vaguely hear her words, amidst the other voices in my head, but I can't understand - I just need to get away from here! That's it! Anywhere but here! YOU CAN'T JUDGE ME FOR DOING WHAT I DID!
"Oi Hikio, get a grip on yourself!" Something touches my shoulder then grip it, almost locking me in place, prompting me to struggle even harder to get out.
"The hell you doing, Hikigaya?!"
A sharp stinging sensation suddenly spreads through my left cheek, along with me looking at the wall now.
"Oi, back in your right mind?" I blink, clearly hearing a voice different from them, and slowly turn my head to see Kawasaki glaring at me, "Or you need another slap to wake you up?"
I slowly take a glance at my left and see that the floating judging eyeballs like they were gods have been replaced with people… Some of them flinching and looking away from… Me.
…Shit… I really fucked up. Why – how… Did I lose control of myself…? For damn sake I should be used to the stares! There should be nothing that –
…System.
"Ok, you need to go calm yourself down, Hikigaya."
"Yeah! Like you're totally not in the right mind, Hikki!"
"…Like they said, Hikio. You're just going to blow up again here."
SHU – FUCK! SHIT!
I take a deep breath then turn around to get out of this room, briefly spotting Hayama looking at me with a shocked face, though I can see that calculating glint in your eyes, you fake bastard.
If I stay in here even longer then I might just, no, I will lose control again. Hell right now I can't stand to look at the Heroines since it just reminds me of the system!
This fucking system that ruined my peaceful life! Actually why couldn't the system be like those op isekai's?! I would have been fine for murdering everybody but Komachi! Or a system that doesn't manipulate me to fit its event!
Fu –
I feel something colliding with me just as I turn the corner of the hallway, almost knocking me to the ground but I quickly stabilize myself.
"Ow…" I blink as I hear a high pitch tone then I see a –
…Fuck you system. Wait wasn't she inside the classroom?! How the fuck did she appear in front of me?! There's a limit to how much you can manipulate you know!
Just why is Totsuka in front of me?!
"E-eh? Hikigaya-kun? Why are you out here? Class is about to start! Come on!" Wait… Why are you wearing the boys uniform? Don't tell me that the system allows – wait no, the system put you as a Heroine, so you should be a girl…
"Um, Hikigaya-kun?" Ok, stop it with that fake deep voice. It must be killing you to act like that. Really, just go out as a girl since your face and height looks girlish.
"U-um…" Wait, you wearing the boys uniform does give you the look of prince charming… If you dye your hair black then it would be dark prince charming…
"Uuum… I… I'll go first…" I snap out of my thoughts, some of them were things that should be buried deep in my head, then see her slowly running away while trying to make it not obvious.
…Should I stop her? Or should I just keep watching her act. It's quite… Something watching her trying to run away while trying to not make it obvious.
…Ok, ok, Hachiman, enough looking at her like a creep. I should just go cool off a bit more… Though Totsuka actually got rid most of my negativity…?
…Ok, new plan: Conquer Saika Totsuka first.
*WEOWEOWEO*

...Welp, going to be honest and say that I don't like how this chapter went down... Haaaah, can't even bring myself to rewrite it since irl been way too exhausting - from one of my mother cat running away from home to get mated, me having to prepare everything for uni again all of a sudden and stressing about how, condition worsening a bit more, family fucking me even more because of lack of money... Yeah, I'm just going to take a break from writing. I don't know how long... But *shrug*. Anyway on to the comments!
