Fukase couldn't believe it, he stared down at his phone trying to hold back tears, until he eventually reached a distance where he could run the remainder of the way home. He quickly closed his front door, and this time in tears he read through the message he'd been sent again, it was a message from who he assumed was a bot, but in the first place he only accepted the friend request from it because his closest friend, Oliver, had also got the friend request and seemed scared once he got the message, but Fukase couldn't help but cry after reading what it had said, majority of it was about the bot and how any personal information wouldn't be shared, but the worst part about it was the end of the message, it showed a picture of another close friend saying bad stuff about him, like "Fukase is the strangest person you'll ever meet" "I wish Fukase would understand I don't want to be friends with him but he's just too clingy" " even if Fukase finds this it's fine I can just play it off easily because 'I'm his best friend' and that" "Fukase lacks the basic knowledge to know what's happening", the words repeated in Fukase's head endlessly until he seen a message from Oliver "hey any reply from the bot?" Fukase felt slightly relieved he could have someone to talk to about it, but his stomach started to feel sick from the feeling of betrayal of a close friend.
Fukase felt as if his hands were shaking to much to type so the only thing he could think of doing was ringing Oliver, it didn't take long for Oliver to reply "hey Fukase! How've you been?" "I've been better" Fukase was still upset about the messages and it didn't take Oliver long to realise it judging Fukase's tone of voice "oh no what happened?" Fukase was about to start explaining but instead the thought of it only brought him to tears again. "Oh sorry I shouldn't have aske-" "n-no it's ok I'll just send a picture" Fukase's couldn't help but trip over his words, he was crying after all, and it was all that could be heard over the call. Oliver read through the messages the redhead had been sent "no- that has to be fake, Flower wouldn't say these things" "yeah I thought so too..." sobbing could be heard from Fukase's side of the call when he was finished speaking. There was a good moment of silence apart from the noise of typing from Oliver's side of the call and the muffled crying from Fukase's "Fukase if you want I can get Piko to see it's fake? Haha, he's really good with computers" Fukase quickly agreed knowing this could possibly be his last hope in saving that friendship, and also knowing that the person who made the bot might've just been heartless enough to make it ruin friendships. "Yeah sure, the person who made the bot might've been some heartless bitch who ruins friendships" "yeah hopefully, cause honestly it's strange for Flower to act like that" Oliver was trying his best to reassure Fukase that it's most likely fake, and it seemed to have calmed him down because the crying from the other side of the call had seemed to have stopped.
At this stage if you were to walk past Fukase's room all you'd be able to hear is loud yelling or laughing, it was as if the incident never happened, but in reality Fukase was just trying his best not to think about it and enjoy talking to Oliver. "Wha- do you really need to go? The call was so close to being 7 hours" Fukase couldn't help but feel disappointed that his friend had to leave now of all times "yes Fukase i need to go, it's 10 o'clock and there's still school tomorrow" Oliver didn't want to leave the call either but unlike Fukase he actually had a normal sleeping schedule, and without further complaining Oliver said goodnight and hung up. Fukase felt disappointed his friend hung up on him so suddenly but then just decided to use the remainder of his battery to play some games. About halve an hour had passed before Fukase got bored and decided to try and sleep himself. Yelling could no longer be heard from Fukase's room but instead all that could be heard is sobbing again, the messages from earlier had crept back into his mind and it didn't seem like they were leaving anytime soon. This was going to be a long night for him.
"God I couldn't get a wink of sleep last night" morning had arrived and Fukase felt horrible, as tired as he got last night, the thoughts of what Flower was saying about him wouldn't leave his mind and only brought him to tears multiple times, but at least he was too tired now to think of anything at all now. Fukase felt like he was ten times his weight from the lack of sleep but managed to drag himself up either way and got ready for school. The closer Fukase got to school the more he dreaded his day, he agreed with Oliver to act normal until they find out if it's fake or not but it might be a bit difficult for Fukase considering the message is all that's on his mind when he has enough energy to think about anything in general. Once Fukase was inside he was greeted by Oliver "hey Fukase! Oh god you look terrible, did you sleep at all?!" "Nope not at all, not with what happened yesterday" Fukase felt his mood worsen again at the thought of it but he knew he needed to try act normal. "It'll be ok Fuka, I'm sure it was fake" Oliver then brought Fukase into a hug while doing his best to comfort him, but he soon had to let go of him because he noticed the redhead was about to fall asleep, and that wouldn't be ideal for Oliver considering he's not the strongest person and won't he won't be able to hold him if he fell asleep right there and then.
"Yo Fukase! Oliver!" Fukase didn't even wanna look at who was speaking, he recognised the voice too well. "Hey flower!" Oliver however seemed to be acting like nothing happened. "Fukase, you ok? You look like you haven't slept for weeks" it was lucky today Fukase was too tired to reply to Flower, otherwise he might've just snapped and got mad at Flower for saying such things about him behind his back. "Yeah I don't think he slept at all last night" Oliver started petting Fukase's hair once they both sat down. The redhead found this quite calming, maybe a little too calming because eventually he fell asleep on his desk the moment class started. To Fukase's surprise he hadn't been woken up during class, and class was almost finished "good morning Fukase" Fukase only waved at flower in response still being half asleep. The rest of class wasn't too awkward considering Oliver was also right beside him, but Fukase knew the next class would be extremely awkward because it would only be him and Flower.
