Closeted Straight - KNY High School AU

~ Chapter 28 ~

Y/N carefully sneaked in the classroom, warily looking around before taking a seat next to Kyujuro.

„Hey, class rep. You look frightened. Is everything alright?" He asked, concerned.

„Let us just say, I am the refuge today. I might need protection from assassination attempt at any moment..." She mumbled, ducking swiftly as she noticed furious Shinobu, storming in the classroom. „Just as I thought. I am fucked. Hide me! Do you think I will fit under the desk?"

„Eh? Are not you friends with the midget? I heard she invited you to the gathering of nerds and other losers." Daki asked from the desk behind them.

„You are just bitter because you were left out." Y/N rolled her eyes.

„Pfft, I would be offended, if I were invited to that shitfest."

Everyone stopped talking when teacher spoke. Y/N relaxed a little. Shinobu would not be able to assault her during the lesson. She needed to be careful between the lessons and during breaks, though.

Y/N decided to skip lunch. She did not feel like facing Shinobu's wrath and getting possible food poisoning, besides, she wanted to check her locker just in case Daki found replacement for that freshman. Y/N doubted that girl would return, she seemed far too frightened after confrontation.

„What are you doing here?!" She asked strictly, glaring at Enmu.

„I could ask the same. Are not you hungry?"

„This is my locker."

„My locker is nearby too."

„It is not anywhere close to mine. What is that in your hand? You were sent by Daki, were not you?"

„Are you accusing me of being sent by Daki, to pick a lock and steal your things, because of my past? That is hurtful, but I should have expected it, I guess, after I told you about my reputation. I merely noticed this paper on the floor and seeing that it had your name on it, I assumed it must have been fallen out of your locker, so I decided to return it, before someone would step on it or something."

„I should have known, I could not trust you."

„I was not here to steal anything! Give me a minute to explain, before you will report it..."

„I never said I am going to report you for stealing, did I?" Y/N rolled her eyes. Ridiculous. Just how dumb did Y/N look to this little motherfucker? Apparently, he had no idea, Y/N realized that Daki made him write haikus for luring her, so he assumed she was blaming him for stealing her love letter.

„You are not?"

„Look, I am not mad at you or anything. I know that you were forced."

„I was not stealing anything, Y/N! I... uh..." Enmu stared at the floor, „Maybe this will piss you off even more but... I was not trying to steal the letter, I... I was the one who wrote it in the first place..."

„I knew it."

„You did?!"

„Of course. I had doubts whole time... Daki clearly would not come up with this on her own."

„What are you talking about?"

„Playing dumb? Did not you just admit writing the letter?"

„I did."

„Yet you are denying that it was Daki's idea... My, you must be terrified of her."

„What does this have to do with her?!"
