There was one thing Gigi knew, she couldn't get caught in Kamasaka territory. Not by the other students who knew her and could probably snitch to Kōhei somehow or by the second in command, Gandhi who very much disliked Reiji. Getting caught in Kamasaka territory would definitely be much worse than getting caught by Kōhei while she was with Fujio or Todoroki. So Gigi tried not to hang out with Reiji around other Kama Kou boys— but she didn't explicitly tell him that she didn't want to be caught because she doubts he'll even help her. But it was a bit hard hiding from other Kama Kou students considering Reiji's position in the school and how fast rumours spread and you'd be surprised how much teenage boys love to gossip even though they claim not to. Reiji told her about the current rumour circling around the school: "Himuro-san has a really pretty girlfriend!" Gigi couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"awe but Himuro-san's girlfriend already has a boyfriend" she told him and brought the bottle up to her lips

Reiji smiled mischievously. "but what if Himuro-san wants his girlfriend to break up with her boyfriend" on cue Gigi began to choke, spitting out the drink and spilling more than half of the bottle in the process

Reiji began to laugh hysterically at her pain while she hit her own chest as she coughed. "what does that even mean?" she said between coughs

He only shrugged with a cat-like grin on his face. "I don't know"

"Then why'd you say it?" she said and frowned seeing barely a sip left in the bottle

"'cause it sounded like it'd get a reaction out of you" Reiji shoved his hands into his pockets as he watched Gigi throw the now empty bottle into the trash and wipe her mouth with her sleeve

"very funny..." she said sarcastically with a roll of her eyes

Reiji smiled, his heart beating faster in his chest at the familiar action. "does a straw have one or two holes?" she asked out of the blue and Reiji looked at her weird

"What?"

"Me, Todoroki, Tsuji and Shibaman were arguing about it last night over text. Me and Todoroki say one but those two idiots say two, how many do you—"

There the both of them began arguing as well since Reiji agreed with Tsuji and Shibaman. However, the both of them didn't hear the incoming voices until too late, or before it was too late, Reiji dragging Gigi by her jacket into a nearby alleyway, pressing her against a wall and leaning over her. "what the fuck—" he put a finger over her lips, shutting her up immediately 

"shhh~" he hushed, right hand resting next to her head, blocking the view of her face from onlookers at the entrance of the alleyway "don't wanna get caught now do you?"

Gigi gulped, her left hand gripping his jacket while the other lay limply by her side as he removed his finger from her lips, the skin that he touched felt like it had been set on fire. Reiji tilted his head down while her head tilted up to look at his eyes. He pressed himself against her, hiding her as best as he could as footsteps got closer and he heard someone mutter his name from a distance. Gigi's throat felt dry.
