A rendezvous at such a secluded place... could she be possibly waiting for her boyfriend ? If that were the case , I could end up cornered on all sides. While I agonized over how to sneak away , kushida slowly put her bag down on the ground.

Miyamoto : Hey ayanokouji , why are you following kushida‐chan.

Ike : Yeah why , and does kikyou‐chan really have a boyfriend.

Shinohara : Why do you care even if she had one , huh.

Ike : No , I was just asking that's all.

Onodera : Were you stalking kushida‐san ?

All students started glaring at me especially kei.

Hirata : Calm down everyone , there must be a reason for it and I'm pretty sure he didn't had any bad intentions.

With that everyone became calm.

In this type of situation hirata sure is helpful.

Kushida : (OH SHIT , what should I do now ?)

And then ....

Ahh so annoying

Her voice was so low that it didn't sound at all like.

Everyone in the hall became silent

Onodera : Huh , what's wrong kushida‐san.

Koenji : Hahaha , as I thought everyone's idol has inferiority complex.

Okitani : What ?

Satou : Is that true kushida‐san ?

Kushida : (SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT !!!!!)

She's seriously annoying ! God , how irritating. It'd be better if she just died.

Ike : wait wait .... this can't be real.

Sakayanagi : Fufufu , just as I thought this girl has another face . A really ugly side fufu.

Ryueen : Kukuku , what will you do now kikyou , your true face is going to be revealed , kuku.

Ichika : This side of you is truly adorable bitch‐senpai , hahaha.

Nagumo : Really disgusting , haha.

Ah , she's the worst ! She's just the worst , the worst , the worst ! Horikita your so annoying ! your so damn annoying.

Sudou : Why the heck are cursing suzune.

Satou : Is that really your true nature kushida‐san.

Shinohara : I can't believe that kushida‐san is like this.

Onodera : Yeah I never thought she would be like this.

Ichinose : ( I'll have to be careful around her fro now onwards)

Kushida : ( FUCK FUCK !!!!)

I felt like I'd glimpsed another side of this gentle girl , the most popular person in our class. She probably didn't want anyone else to see this darker side. A voice in my head whisperd that it was dangerous to stay here.

Shinohara : Ayanokouji‐kun what were you doing there in the first place.

Kiyotaka : I followed her to apologize to her as she helped during the study group and because of me she got scolded by horikita.

Onodera : So you were not stalking her.

Kiyotaka : No.

However an odd question arose. Why had she worked with me if she felt such hatred towards horikita. Kushida should have understood horikita's personality and behavior perfectly well by now. She could have refused to help or just left the study group to horikita or otherwise washed her hands of involvement. Why force herself to the study group ? Did she want to get along with horikita ? or did she want to become closer to another participant ? None of it made sense. I couldn't explain her reasoning. No , she may have shown signs of this from the very beginning. I hadn't really thought about it before but considering the state she was in right now I had a hunch. Perhaps kushida and horikita were....

Horikita : (So he had already figured it out )

At any rate I need to get away from here. Kushida probably didn't want anyone else to hear her diatribe. Still hiding I quickly tried to leave.

Thump !

I'd kicked the door much louder than I'd anticipated. It'd been unexpectedly loud , really. Kushida tensed and stopped breathing. I'd instantly become her enemy. Turning kushida sees her sights on me. I'd been seen.

Random students : you got caught.

Hashimoto : Too bad king .

After a brief silence , kushida coldly asked , what are you doing here ?

"I got a little lost. Sorry. My bad , I'll be going now."

Haruka : You really are bad at lying kiyopon.

Horikita : Yeah , I gotta agree with her.

Hearing that Ryueen and sakayanagi started laughing.

Ryueen/Sakayanagi : Kukuku/fufufu

Ryueen/Sakayanagi : (Him bad at lying , yeah right )

Nobody had any idea why they were laughing

Kushida looked straight at me , clearly seeing through my obvious lie. I'd never seen such an intense gaze before.

All the idiots who saw kushida as an angel were now scared of her .

"Did you hear ?" she asked

Miyamoto : Of course he did.

"Would you believe me if I said I didn't." I replied.

"I see" kushida briskly walked down the stairs. She placed her left forearm against the base of my throat and pushed me up against the wall. Her tone of words , her actions , everything about her was completely unlike the kushida I knew. This new kushida wore a terrifying expression , one that I could compare to horikita's expression.

Horikita : You have some nerve to compare me with her.

Kiyotaka : It's all in the past . Just forget about it.

"If you tell anyone what you just heard then I won't forgive you." Her words were ice and I didn't think they were an idle threat.

"And if I did tell ?"

Okitani : Hey , why would you provoke her ?

"In that case I would tell everyone you raped me." She said

Almost everyone : WHAT !

Ichinose : That's very wrong . You shouldn't do something like that.

Hirata : Yeah that's right kushida‐san.

Hiyori : Yeah , it's wrong.

"That's okay. It wouldn't be false." Her words had heft and power , leaving me unable to reply. As she spoke kushida grabbed my right wrist and slowly opened my hand. She pushed my palm up against her soft breast.

Everyone in the room especially perverted boys started making noise.

YR : keep quiet.

Satou : How can you be like this kushida‐san.

Shinohara : Yeah , it's really disgusting.

Matsushita : I never thought she would be like this.

Ryueen : Kukuku , hey kikyou can you give as all a chance tooo , kukukuku.

Ryueen said that while looking at kushida and kushida just glared at him.

Ike : Say ayanokouji how was the sensation ? Were they soft ?

Kiyotaka : Ask them.

Ike looked at the direction I pointed to him. He saw Shinohara , kushida and some other girls glaring at him.

Kei : ( What .... Kiyotaka touched her breast . Huh , that bitch how dare she. she made him touch her breast. But still .. he touched it .Haaa kiyotaka I'll let you off the hook for this time since you didn't do it own your.)

Kei was glaring daggers at me. Scary.

Nagumo (mocking tone) : You are a lucky guy ayanokouji.

Other boys : Well he sure is.

Kiyotaka gives a heavy sigh.

Ichika : She really is a bitch.

Mashima‐sensei : You first year apologize to your senpai.

Ichika : Sorry kushida-senpaii.

Kushida : It's OK ( ahh fuck that bitch . I'll definitely kill her.)

Haruka : Hey , kiyopon is she still blackmailing or threatening you with that ?

Kiyotaka : No , don't worry. It's all settled now.

Ryueen : ( That monster already took care of that during the paper shuffle exam.)

Kei : ( So that's why he told me to do that at that time.)

Kushida stepped away from me. Even though this was the first time I had felt a girl's breast I found I couldn't find the sensation.

"Hey kushida which is the real you ?"

"That's none of your business."

"I see. Well I was wondering something. If you hate horikita then you don't need to involve yourself with her , right."

Satou : Yeah that's right.

I knew she probably wouldn't like that question , but I was curious about her motivation.

"Is it bad to want everyone to like you ? Do you know how difficult it is to accomplish that ? You can't know , can you ?" She asked " Well I don't have that many friends , so i guess not."

Ever since the first day of school kushida had made an effort to exchange contact information with , invite out and of course , talk with the pessimistic horikita. One could easily imagine how and time consuming that would be.

"At least on the surface , I wanted to appear to get along with horikita." " But the stress of that just kept building huh" "Yeah that's what I want out of life , though. That way my existence has meaning." She answered without hesitation. Kushida had a singular way of thinking. Her own internal rules demanded she get close to horikita.

Random 1st year : It's a good thing we got to know about her early.

All 1st years : "Yes"

Nagumo : So this is why you asked my help to expel horikita and ayanokouji.

Everyone in class 2D : What expel ?

Hirata : Is it true kushida‐san ?

Kushida : Yeah that's right , so what.

Ichinose : You shouldn't do that.

Hirata : Yes , that's right . You shouldn't expel your own classmates.

"Let me tell you something while I have the chance. I absolutely despise gloomy , ordinary guys like you."

Airi : Kiyotaka‐kun is not a gloomy person.

Ichinose : Yeah ayanokouji-kun is a smart person.

Hiyori : Yeah that's right , he's a really good person.

Haruka : That's right. Compared to other boys kiyop is very mature and smart.

Kei : ( How dare she call my Kiyotaka gloomy.)

Kei was looking at kushida with an angry face.

The fantasy of a cute kushida that I'd carried upon until now had been shattered , but I wasn't actually that shocked. Most people possessed both a public face and a private inner self after all. However I felt like kushida was both telling the truth and lying right now.

"I'm just speculating , but did you and horikita know each other before this year ? Maybe you both attended the same school in the past." The instant I said it kushida shrugged in response.

Ike : Huh , is that true.

Horikita : Well from this point onwards it is not necessary to keep secrets so , yes kushida‐san and i have met in past and as ayanokouji‐kun said we both attended the same middle school.

Everyone in class 2D were suprised after hearing it.

"What the ... I don't know what you mean. Did horikita‐san say something about me ?" She snapped

"No , I had the impression that this was the first time you'd met. But something seemed strange."

"Strange ?"

Shinohara : What do you mean by that ?

Miyamoto : Yeah , what's strange ?

Kiyotaka : Just watch the video.

I recalled the first time kushida has spoken to me.

"You learned my name only when I first introduced myself , right."

"So what ?" kushida responded flatly.

Shinohara : Isn't that obvious. Why are you asking such stupid questions.

Some random girl : That's right.

"Well where did you learn horikita's name ? Back then , she hadn't introduced herself to anyone yet. The only person who knew was sudou , but I doubt you'd met him by then.

Ryueen : kukuku , (As expected from a monster)

Sakayanagi : fufu (As expected of ayanokouji‐kun)

Matsushita : (He really is observant . These videos might be more useful than I thought.)

Mashima‐sensei : ( This observation is not of a high school student.)

Kanzaki : You really are observant ayanokouji.

Katsuragi : Yeah , to think you process this quickly.

Kiyotaka : This is simple deduction anybody can do that.

Kanzaki : I doubt that.

In other words kushida wouldn't have the chance to learn horikita's name.

"You got close to me so you can spy on her right ?"

"Just shut up , hearing you talk irritates me ayanokouji‐kun. I only want to know one thing. Do you swear you'll never tell anyone what you learn here today ?"

"I swear. Even if I did , it's not like anyone would believe me , right ?"

The entire class loved and trusted kushida. The difference between us was like night and day.

Hirata : I would have believed you Kiyotaka‐kun.

Kiyotaka : Thanks Yousuke, but I didn't want to take any chances.

Now everyone was looking at kushida with disgust. And some boys were still in shock seeing there dream girl like this. While some people were laughing (you know who)

YR : Well let's watch the next video.
