22 - The Argument

AN:// I'm sorry for not posting in several months! Sports and school took up way more time than I thought it would. I'll hopefully be able to finish the story soon. <3 

Enjoy~

It's been 2 weeks since I found out I only had 8 months left to live. I've spent my time at Summerfield, training, catching up with Jujutsu high work, and doing research. It's been awhile since I've actually seen everyone. I feel kinda bad. Actually I feel awful about it.

Tamura hasn't shown any obvious signs that he's a curse user. However he's been acting differently for the past two weeks. I keep blaming it on my exhaustion but I don't think it's actually that. We have been getting closer as friends. Which is good.

Since the day is filled with school or research. My training is at ungodly hours of the night. I have gotten better control of my cursed energy. There is not enough information about my blood ability to use it and not harm myself more. So I haven't improved on it.

My research on my past hasn't really gotten me anywhere. I'm going down the rabbit hole of anything and everything that might help me. Though as of right now there's nothing.

"Hey Aoi!" Tamura waved, running towards me.

"Hello Tamura." I smiled, lifting my head from my desk.

"You've seemed to be really tired lately. . . are you sleeping alright?" He asked.

"Yep! I just stopped drinking energy drinks so I think this is just a withdrawal symptom or something." I lied.

I hadn't stopped drinking energy drinks. In fact I drink about 5 a day. I don't really care if it's bad for me. I'm already dying. Might as well live a little. Not like I'd listen to people if they told me to stop.

"How about some milk tea! They just restocked the vending machines. We have about 5 minutes before class starts so if we hurry, we'll make it."

"Okay." I smiled.

We didn't make it.

"Ms. Aoi. Mr. Tamura. Why might you be late?" The teacher asked.

"Milk tea." I told them honestly. Waving the milk tea carton.

They sighed, "Just take a seat." The disappointment showing in their eyes.

I nodded and sat at my assigned seat.

Class continued as normal.

So did Club.

For the past two weeks I had become good friends with everyone in the club.

Whenever they needed help I gave it to them. If they ever needed a game or anime recommendation I'd do the same. Overall they all liked having me, and I liked being with them.

However, I had other thoughts in my head.

'I miss the first and second-years.'

'I should be hanging out with them'

'They're probably mad at me'

'I shouldn't get attached to anyone here'

'Will they hate me when I leave?'

'I wonder if I need a cover story when I leave.'

'I wonder how long I'll be here'

"Hey Ray," I opened his room's door.

"Hey n/n. You look exhausted." He told me.

There was a mirror by his door. I looked at myself. The bags under my eyes barely covered by the makeup I'd put on in the morning.
