A little fun stroll around the royal sword academy campus,that was all it was.All it seemed it was,to be exact.

[Y/N] was calming walking along the far back parts of the school.The sound of waves was near,yet faint.Although it was clear enough to hear the wave velocity,currently calm.It calmed them too,the squawking of the seagulls that passed by brought them an odd sense of comfort.

But they can't help but recoil whenever they felt a momentary stinging in the side of their head,they tried ignoring the growing feeling in their stomach that made them want to throw up.They clutched their stomach,most likely about to throw up.

The peace was broken by the faint running coming closer and closer,breaking the harmony of nature and raising their guard back up.Distracting them from the sick feeling.Slowly starting to speed up their pace,they walked around to see if whoever was running was trying to find them.Their suspicion was only confirmed when the mysterious person started walking in zigzags and making random turns like they were.

Starting to get tired,they hid behind a tree near the tall white walls.Currently outside the walls sorrounding royal sword academy,they were trying their best to steady and silence their breaths.They soon heard the footsteps coming closer and closer until the person running came to a halt near the tree where [Y/N] had their back against.

Praying to whatever God or Goddess they believed it,they just hoped it wasn't one of those strict teachers coming to scold them and drag them to the headmasters office.

The voice they heard just made them even more miserable.It was the voice of Neige LeBlanche himself,concern and panic being quite obvious in his tone as he tried to whisper,his words coming out louder than intended.

"Oh dear seven..where had they ran off to..?they can't possibly get far with their current state.."

As if on cue,they suddenly felt the stinging in their head get stronger.Grasping onto their head with both hands,they dug their nails deep into their skull.It gave them a different type of stinging but one they much preferred to the stinging they felt earlier.They removed one hand from their head to cover their mouth,trying to mumble any whimpering.Almost convince they would press hard enough for marks to be left,or even worst.Blood would ooze out.

Even if the pain they felt was unbearable,they still tried and tried not to make any sort of noise or movement that would give away their hiding place.

They failed.

Lifting the hand off their mouth,a raspy broken gasp escaped their dried dehydrated lips,loud enough to alert Neige.As he was heard running towards their direction,[Y/N]'s body fell to the floor.Ending up on an all fours position,dark colored liquid with small chunks flowed out their mouth.Their eyes widening at the sight,they tried to close their mouth.Just for more to be puked out.

They felt a hand on their shoulder,a hand accompanied with the sickly familiar warmth.It made them want to throw up even more knowing who it was yet still having to look up at him,seeing how his eyes matched yours with how wide they were.Shock and concern shinning through both of their pupils.

"G-get away from me..-"

"Oh my gosh [Y/N] are you okay?!"

Does it look like I'm okay?Was the only thought they had apart from wanting to get as far from him as possible.

"We should head back inside,yeah?I'll escort you to the nurses office--"

"please don't touch me."

It almost seemed as if they weren't talking at all,seeing how Neige ignored every word they spoke and went against their pleads.Lightly grabbing their forearm and throwing it over their back,his free hand holding onto their wrist.His hold was gentle.Yet  not  weak. Since  [Y/N] couldn't seem to get out of it.

Struggling to get out of the boys hold,their breathing got heavy and they started to panic.They shaked their body in all sorts of unexplainable motions.Getting even more alerted when he tightens his grip.

Is he mad?Does he know I left willingly?Their vision was getting a bit blurry,they failed to notice with all the thoughts swarming their head at the moment.Also failing to notice how he was slowly dragging their body along with him back to the school.

As soon as they had noticed,they were already close to the  entrance back into the main campus.They almost jumped from the sudden change of view.

Wait...how..did we get here..?how are we already here already??huh...

They were starting to get convinced that they were going crazy.They swore to the great seven that they only zoned out for a second.Was Neige really just that quick?

"[Y/N]?"

Oh dear God.What the living hell is happening to them?they must just be really bad at keeping in track of time huh..Keeping in track of time,Yuu's really good at that right?maybe they can ask them.

"[Y/N]...?"

Wait no.How could they have forgotten?Their at royal sword academy Yuu is way too far for them to help.Besides,Yuu's probably too busy at the moment to spare them a single thought.

"[Y/N],Are you okay??"

Wait,how did their mind go to Yuu again..?how did they remember Yuu out of all things in a situation like this one??

"hello?[Y/N] please respond..!"

They really must be going crazy,huh?

"[Y/N],I'm sorry but this may be a little louder than intended..."

Their mind instantly went blank.It was as if they blue screened and their memory was wiped out.What were they thinking about again?

"[Y/N]!!"

Neiges screaming pulled them out of their thoughts.Completely forgetting about everything on their mind a second ago.

They flinched,instantly moving away since Neige's hold lightened.He followed in suit,copying their pace as he went forward.

"Stay away from me."

"what?"
