[Jonah's POV]

After lunch, the day went about the same. I was grabbing my stuff from my locker when I was slammed into it. When I looked, I saw Riser, Valdi, and Issei.

Jonah: "What do you want?"

Riser: "Stay away from Yubelluna."

Jonah: "Why are you finally jealous of someone?"

This caused Issei and Valdi to hold me against my locker, allowing Riser to punch me in the gut.

Riser: "Stay away or so help me. I'll make you regret coming here."

As they walked off, the school nurse left her office when she saw me slump to the ground.

???: "Are you alright?"

Jonah: "I'm alright. Don't worry."

???: "Well, if you need something please come see me. The name's Rossweisse."

Jonah: "Okay, I promise."

I headed to the entrance when I heard a familiar voice.

Yubelluna: "Hey Jonah, what took you so long."

Jonah: "The nurse needed help, so I helped her."

Yubelluna: "Well, that's nice of you to help. Anyways ready to head out."

Jonah: "Actually, I have to head home. Sorry, maybe next time."

Yubelluna: "Alright, let me know."

[Yubelluna's POV]

I was at the shake shop when someone came over to me.

Raynare: "Hey Bomb Queen. What's up."

Yubelluna: "Hey Raynare. I'm fine, but Jonah blew me off."

Raynare: "What do you mean?"

Yubelluna: "He and I were going to hang out after school, but he said no last minute."

Raynare: "That's weird."

Yubelluna: "And it sucks cause I was going to confess to him."

Raynare: "What did you say?"

Yubelluna: "That it sucks."

Raynare: "No, after that."

Yubelluna: "That I was going to confess to him."

Raynare: "Bingo."

Yubelluna: "Crap please dont tell Riser."

Raynare: "I won't. Trust me, he, Valdi, and Issei are the same when they get mad. Also, I don't think you should wait."

Yubelluna: "Okay, I'll do it tomorrow."

Raynare: "Confess to him or dump Riser."

Yubelluna: "Both I'll dumb Riser then rush over to confess to Jonah."

Raynare: "You'll need this then. It's Jonah's address. I managed to get Sona to hand it over."

Yubelluna: "Thank you, but why?"

Raynare: "So you can get as far away from him and tell Jonah the truth and maybe have some fun with all those hormones."

Yubelluna: "Thanks. I don't know how to thank you."

Raynare: "No worries. Jonah is my friend, and I want to see my friend happy."

Yubelluna: "Thank you, so why are you here."

Raynare: "Oh, I'm meeting with Kiba and Tsubaki."

Yubelluna: "So your finally getting back out there after Issei."

Raynare: "Yeah, anyway, wish me luck."

Yubelluna: "Good luck."

[Timeskip]

I was doing homework when I got a call from Riser.

Yubelluna: "Hey, Riser."

Riser: "Hello, my Queen. What are you doing?"

Yubelluna: "Homework, why what about you?"

Riser: "I'm helping Ravel with hers."

Yubelluna: "So if you don't have any plans, would you like to go out tomorrow night."

Riser: "Of course I would. Now about why I called. You aren't cheating on me, are you?"

Yubelluna: "No, why?"

Riser: "Cause I saw how that new kid was all over you."

Yubelluna: "One, he's my childhood best friend, and two, I was showing him around for the day."

Riser: "Well, then you won't mind not hanging out with him for the next few days."

Yubelluna: "Why? Why do you care who I hang out with?"

Riser: "I don't, but I also think you can survive not hanging out with him unless you want something to happen to him, something a lot worse than a punch to the gut."

Yubelluna: "You did what."

Riser: "He needed to learn his place."

Yubelluna: "You know I was going to do this to you tomorrow, but I think nows the time. You and I were done. I'm breaking up with you."

Riser: "Do that, and your friend will receive worse beatings than before, or he could find himself the reason behind a fire and be charged with arson."

I knew he was like this. His father was arrested for arson, and apparently, he taught Riser how to get away with it or blame it on someone else.

Yubelluna: "Alright, fine. I won't."

Riser: "Good girl and not a word to anyone."

Yubelluna: "Alright."

I felt horrible, but I knew what Jonah could go through, and I knew I couldn't protect him. I looked over at my desk and saw a childhood photo of Jonah and me. I grabbed it and held it close to me before falling asleep crying.
