"Good afternoon,Neige."

He turned his head to look over to them.He sat on the grass,his back against the well.The oh so familiar wishing well.With oh so many memories.

"Good afternoon to you too [Y/N]-san"

The tone of his voice didn't seem as bright as it usually was.In fact,it seemed quite forced.Almost as if the little bits of cheerfulness in it was faked.

"Something wrong?"

Even his eyes seemed to darken when they asked him that.His left eye slightly twitched before he made a bright happy expression to mask the previous one.

"Oh?its nothing [Y/N]-san!nothing to worry about."

Although the first part of that phrase sounded like his normal self,bright and joyful,the last part definitely did not match.It seemed like his voice tune changed when he mumbled the last sentence.

But they didn't respond,they only starred at him.A bead of sweat rolled down his neck.He seemed nervous,but it also looked like he was hiding it through a smiling mask.

He surely was acting...odd.It was a bit abnormal for him to act nervous.Specially around his well trusted friends.

"Uhm..How about you sit down with me..?"

His invite sounded more like a question.It sounded as if he himself didn't know what he was saying.Nor did he understand what he was trying to.

Either way,he seemed more relived when they averted their gaze and started walking to the well.Crouching down,then sitting on the ground a few meters away from the internet sensation.

Instead of being met by wind and silence when they sat down,they were greeted by Neige's voice,starting small talk.His words laced in honey,while his head was turned to the side to look over at them,a bright smile on his face.

Normally,[Y/N] would be happy and enjoyed just by the mere sight of it.Usually their meetings were filled to the brim with silence but now Neige seemed a bit more talkative.There were also no animals near Neige at all.Not even a single bird or small mammal.It was confusing.

Although they wanted to feel atleast a little bit of joy.But they couldn't help but feel as if there was an eerie aura coming from Neige.It felt more than strange.Peculiar.It wasn't the comfortable kind of strange,it was more uncanny and it made [Y/N] a bit uncomfortable.

[Y/N] shifted around their seat.Something is making them uncomfortable.Someone.But they don't know what.Just by looking into their eyes,you can tell there's a look of discomfort in them.

Their movements didn't go unnoticed by Neige.Who stopped talking and blankly stared with the 'are you okay?' face.[Y/N] also paused and looked back at him when they realized he stopped speaking.

Starring at eachother,waiting for the other to speak,debating with themselves inside their head if they should be the one to speak up first.

Their facial expression was calm,while the look in their eyes said otherwise.One was confused and nervous.While the other seemed as if it was supposed to come out as comforting and confused,looked more like it was hiding something.Something that should be known.

It looked like an intense starring competition.Whoever fails and blinks first looses.Becomes the loser.Becomes the one who failed.

[Y/N] straightened their position,their eyes slightly widening.Neige's stare was starting to look like a sharp glare now.He blinked his eyes and sat up straight as well.The innocent adorable look back in his eyes.

"[Y/N]?is something wrong?"

Their expression showed obvious confusion mixed with discomfort.Their eyes wandered around before coming back onto the boy that was now right infront of them.

Swallowing the lump that formed in their throat,they opened their mouth to speak only to find their voice stuck in their throat.They closed their mouth again,their cheeks being tinted a light shade of pink from sheer embarrassment.

With an eyebrow slightly raised and a small smile resting on his face,Neige looked more than an innocent child who knew nothing about the cruel world when he knew more than what [Y/N] ever needed to.

"Oh- uhm..nice weather we're having here..?"

They finally managed to say a sentence.Even though the sentence didn't make much sense because the weather could be seen changing drastically in the distance of the other directions.They looked around,their eyes wandering to different directions which were...filled with trees and bushes.

A giggle escaping his soft lips,the sweet sound causing [Y/N] to look back at him directly in the eye.They could feel a bead of sweat rolling down their nape.Why has the weather have to be so cruel?why must it always be...so hot..whenever their at the well..?

"Are you okay?.."

Biting down on their bottom lip,the other waiting for their answer in anticipation.A look of worry plastered onto his handsome face.

"ah- of course..its just..really hot.."

They smiled with their eyes closed,using one of their fans to make a fan like movement.He looked down onto their uniforms jacket.The school jacket.

"Take off your jacket."

"What?"

"I said,take off your jacket.You're already wearing stacks of clothes,that's why you feel so hot."

[Y/N] nodded,sliding the clothing garment off their shoulders and down their arms.Pulling on at the other end when the sleeves got stuck by their wrist.Once they fully removed it,they put it aside,right next to them so they won't forget it.

They sighed in relief when Neige was right,they didnt feel as hot.It was still a little hot but not as hot ad before they took it off.They looked down to see their phone on the floor.They picked it up and realized how long they've been gone.

Eyes widening like saucers,they hurriedly stood up.Their frantic movements catching Neige's attention.He looked up at them with a confused look.

"Where are you going?"

[Y/N] turned their head to look back down at him with a saddened expression.

"I have to go...or else people might start looking for me.See ya."

They picked up their uniform jacket,tying it around their waist and putting their phone in their pocket.Stretching out their arm and waving Neige goodbye.

"Goodbye!See you...soon"

Once he made sure [Y/N] had gone far away enough,he stood up himself.Turning around to face the wishing well.Placing his hands on the sides of the circular opening.

He looked down inside to find it completely spotless and clean.

"Hm.They did a great job."

A familiar blue sparrow landed down on his shoulder,taking a peak down the well too.Almost slipping down and falling into the wishing well when Neige's hand catched it before it could even fall off,pushing it a little back onto his shoulder blade.

Fixing his composition and starting to walk away from the area.He couldn't help but imagine voices in his head.The sounds of screams of terror.Their horrified faces.their pleading was engraved in his head.Forever.It tainted his sanity and purity.
