Nagisa P.O.V
("It's been a couple of days since Sayuri had joined us, and it seems like she's gotten along with everyone pretty well, mainly the girls of course and strangely, she managed to get along with Karma, but she only tolerates him which is better than nothing. However, she's annoyed that I'm always the one who volunteers to set up the classroom every morning and because of this, she decided to tag along.") I thought while I climbed up the mountain trail with Sayuri and I could tell she isn't a morning person. "I don't see why you would choose to do this every morning Nagi-chan, when nobody appreciates you doing it." Sayuri complained, and I could tell she's concerned about me, because she feels like it's cruel that nobody chooses to help me and that I shouldn't be responsible for setting up the classroom.
"Because I simply don't mind doing it Sayuri, but I can see where your coming from as it does get kinda lonely being in the classroom with nobody to talk to. But, at least I now have you with me, and in my opinion, that's even better than having someone else helping me setting up the classroom." I replied back to her with a smile as I continued my way up the mountain. However, I didn't realise my comment made Sayuri embarrassed until she threw her bag at the back of my head, causing me to fall to the ground. "DON'T SAY STUPID CRAP LIKE THAT!" Sayuri shrieked after she'd thrown her bag at the back of my head, and when I turned around to face her, I noticed her cheeks were a deep red.
Sayuri P.O.V
After hearing what Nagisa had said, I ended up throwing my bag at him as hard as I could, for saying something so embarrassing. "Sorry Sayu-san... I didn't mean to embarrass you like that, but it's the truth. I'd rather have you with me, as I know you would try to force the others to do this instead. But either way, your here now, choosing to help me instead and I'm grateful for that and I hope you continue to help me out." Nagisa apologised while also showing his gratitude along with the cute smile of his. "Well... I can't simply let you do this all by yourself, not when you've been doing this since before the moon got destroyed. So I'll gladly come along and help you out as it's my responsibility as your big sister to look after you." I replied back to him with a smile, and I'm really glad that he said that, as it's even making feel warm inside. "Thank you Sayu-san, I promise I'll make it up to you later." Nagisa replied along with a small laugh and I walked up to him and I grabbed his hand to help him up. "If your offering to make it up to me, then how about you treat me later with some desert like a slice of strawberry cake?" I suggested I've always loved eating strawberry cake, ever since I was little. "I should of figured that you would asked for strawberry cake. After all, it was your favourite dessert back when we were younger. So sure, I'll treat you with your favourite dessert then." Nagisa replied back to me along with that cute smile of his and I just hugged him. "Alright then, now it's time to get to work!" I told him and we made our way to the classroom.
Later
After finishing up setting up the classroom, I decided to sit at Kayano's desk for obvious reasons, but also so that I could talk to Nagisa about stuff that's personal. "Damn I'm beat... seriously though, I don't understand how your not tired from doing this all the time." I complained as we had to brush up the entire classroom, whether it was clean or not. Making sure everyone's desk and chairs are perfectly lined. But most of all, making sure nothing else is out of place. "I'm sorry for making you do all of this with me Sayu-san, but you just kept refusing to let me do this alone. So, I'm sorry that I seemed a little bossy..." Nagisa apologised while giving me a nervous laugh, but when I saw him itch his cheek, I smirked and decided to tease him by poking his cheek instead. "Like as if you could boss me around Nagi-chan and like I already mentioned, I can't simply let you do this all by yourself, not even if you payed me." I told him while smiling smugly to him as I continued to poke his cheek.
"Well I guess that's true. You were always so stubborn back when we were younger." Nagisa told me which caused me to pout. "Oi, who do you think your calling stubborn?" I asked as I continued to pout and I pressed my finger against his cheek hard. But this seems to cause him to laugh. "But it's the truth though, you were always so stubborn back when we were younger, to the point you'd even refuse to listen to what anyone had to say. But most of all, you'd always dragged me into your schemes, whether I wanted to or not, as you would simply drag me to come with you, even if I refused." Nagisa explained while he was still laughing from what I had said earlier. But after heating his explanation, I started to giggle as that totally sounds like something I would do. "I guess you got a point there Nagi-chan. But you got to admit, you sure loved being a part of my schemes, even the ones we got into trouble for." I replied while giggling, as I remember Nagisa always use to come up to me and ask could he help me, even if they'll get him into trouble, he still wanted to help.
"I won't deny that I liked being apart of your schemes, but that's only because you were my only friend back then, and that I wanted to hangout with you. But I didn't like when we used to get into trouble for them though, and I remember you always used to say that you'd forced me to help you, in attempt to get me out of trouble. It worked at first, but they finally caught on that you were just trying to get me out of trouble, so they punished us both for them." Nagisa replied, which he admitted that he did indeed enjoying being a part of my schemes and that he'd explained his reason why he joined me in the first place. "Hehe, I'm flattered to hear you say that Nagi-chan, I really am. But do you remember all the times you used to cling onto me whenever you got scared? Whether it was my arm or hugging me tightly from behind, you'd always used to rely on me whenever you got scared. I replied to him along with a cheerful smile to which caused a faint blush to appear on his cheeks, but laughed nervously hinting that he remembers.
"Yeah... I remember. I remember that I'd always use to rely on you whenever I got scared or that I needed you to help guide me pass a praying mantis as I was pretty scared of them at the time. Now that I think about it, I kinda did rely on you a heck at lot back then, didn't I?" Nagisa replied back to me along with a embarrassing laugh, but it's true that he actually did rely on me hundred percent of time. "You sure did Nagi-chan, and it was pretty cute too for how you cuddled me for protection." I replied along with a giggle and I saw his blush brighten a little. "Just... Just promise me that you won't tell none of the others about that, as it's pretty embarrassing." Nagisa pleaded as he's embarrassed about how I found him hugging me for protection cute. "Don't worry Nagi-chan, I wouldn't dare tell any of them about your past phobia and how you reacted to it, as that's something I wouldn't share about you." I replied in response to his plea to which I promised him that I wouldn't and it caused him to give me a cute smile.
Third P.O.V
After Sayuri had promised Nagisa that she wouldn't tell any of the others about his past phobia of a certain insect known as mantises. This caused Nagisa to smile at her, as he loves how kind Sayuri really is to those she deeply cares about. "Thank you Sayuri-san, it really means a lot to hear you say that." Nagisa thanked Sayuri with a smile, as he loves how kind Sayuri truly is to him, even though she can go a bit far in her teasing whenever she teases him. "Don't mention it, but anyway. What do you think of Kanzaki-san, and before you ask, No, I'm not teasing you. I just want to hear your opinion about her, that's all." Sayuri asked Nagisa while also assuring him that she isn't trying to tease him about it. "Can I ask what's the reason why you want to know about my opinion of Kanzaki-san?" Nagisa asked Sayuri as he found it quite strange for why she's asking him such a question, when's not trying to tease him or anything.
"I can't really go into the details Nagi-chan, but all I can say is that Yukiko is interested on getting to know you more." Sayuri explained which caused Nagisa to blush upon hearing that Kanzaki wants to get to know him more. "I can tell by the look of your face that your aren't lying about this. So... why do you think Kanzaki-san would want to get to know me more, when there's nothing interesting about me?" Nagisa asked Sayuri as he's embarrassed that Kanzaki wants to get to know more, but he's also curious on learning why would she want to get to know him more. "This is just a hunch, but I think it's because of me. The reason why I think that is because I think she's been seeing a different side of you ever since we'd reunited and that she seen how you treat me, plus the affection that I give you. But I doubt it's jealously, as if that were the case, it'll be Kayano-san instead. But considering that it's Yukiko, I think she seen how different you are compared to the rest of the other guys or maybe just guys in general, in which case, she likely trust you a hell a lot." Sayuri explained a possibility to Nagisa for why would Kanzaki would want to get to know him more, but she also doubts that Kanzaki has romantic feelings for him.
"I guess... I guess that makes sense. After all, Kanzaki-san doesn't strike me as the jealous type and it's like you said. She's been seeing a different side of me, so maybe she seen how much confidence I gained now that your here." Nagisa replied in response to Sayuri's hunch about Kanzaki. "Exactly! So don't worry about it too much okay? As I doubt Yukiko would suddenly start giving you affection, as that would be pretty bold of her to do so and that it'll tell everyone that she's jealous of me. However, I can seriously guarantee that Kayano-san would certainly start getting bold if that does happen. But again, I doubt Yukiko is anything to worry about as she likely just wants to get to know you more and nothing more." Sayuri explained even further with a smile, which caused Nagisa to sigh, but he still blushed over the thought of Yukiko giving him affection.
"Thank you Sayuri, thank you for everything you've done for me as I really do owe you. So, how about I treat you later by cooking up a meal for you to repay everything you've done for me." Nagisa thanked Sayuri for everything she'd done for him and suggested that he'll treat her to a meal instead, causing her to blush brightly.
