   "𝕆h! Hey Minomoto-Senpai!" There she goes again, always ignoring the guy right next to her to obsess over some other guy. "Hello Kou's friend, Yashiro right?" He matched her ubeat happy energy. "Oh yes... and the 7th school mystery."

   He turned his head to me, somehow even when he smiled he still seemed ominous. "...I've been just going around with her all day.." Hanako couldn't help but shiver at his gaze. Oh how he wished he was with the other Minomoto brother right now.

    "So you've been distracting her all today? Making her unable to focus on school work? Is this how you treat your assistants oh so honorable 7?" Must The older Minomoto twist everything Hanko does and says into some horrible act that is deserving of exorsism? "I just wanted to spend time with her, that's all." The amber-eyed ghost wrapped his slightly translucient arms around his pretty assistant.

  "I would have left if she really wanted too!" He sighed, slowly loosening his grasp on Nene. "He's right! I wanted Hanako-kun to stay!" She nodded to show her agreement, at the same time she grabbed onto his arms making him stay put. "Oh. Your decision then. But, I wouldn't get to close to a murderer you know." He walked away from the two of them frown apparent on his face. He'd have to be a bit more careful for awhile.

   "I thought you'd blindly go along with whatever he says." Hanako laughed. "Huh? No, I have my own mind, besides he's more of a celeb crush. Waay out of my leauge." She put her fingertips together before slowly moving them away from each other while saying 'way' to show just how supposedly inadequate she was. He honestly thought she was out of his league.

  "I would honestly like someone with a more normal face. More so I could keep him all to myself! Not saying handsome dudes aren't to die for though!" She wrapped her arms around herself as walked through the empty hall, ghost boy at her side. "So me?" He had to stuff that in there, just had to. "Oh you, shush it!" She shoved the black-haired ghost's face away from herself playfully. He couldn't help but giggle at her face, it was all red.

  Not long after they made it back to the classroom. Surprisingly the whole miniature adventure hadn't actually taken that long. Time with the person you like most can either feel like forever or a split second, no matter how long it is. How unusual.

   She pulled out the chair and plopped down in it before picking up her pencil and twirling it between her fingers. When they were gone at somepoint a worksheet was passed out in an attempt to quiet down the children who completed the test, it somwhat worked.

   Hanako sat his head down on her lap. What? They were in Nene's class, that ment she couldn't be to loud. So, why not make the most of it? He wouldn’t go overboard of course, that just would be kinda cruel. He was a man repenting, not a man who still actively sinned. She didn't quietly push him away or anything, so he was happy.

  This was nice. If she made it past her set death-date like Nene was convinced she would, he should get her to become a teacher. That way, even after she graduated they could still have fun together. He could already imagine it, him ratting out all the kids in her class. She would have the best behaving children ever. Nobody would get away with anything!

   "Hey, Yashiro, you should be a teacher. Then we could hang around together all the time even into your adulthood." He quietly told her, causing her to giggle a little. Before long a small piece of paper, torn out of a random notebook page made it's way down to him.

  "You mean if I live? Of course. Sounds splendid Hanako-kun."
 
   He always found it a little weird how open she was about her predetermined lifespan. Shouldn't she be at least a little more, you know freaked out? If she was, she was good at hiding it.

    He shrugged it off for the moment and focused in on the girl above him whose cheeks were all puffed out. "Pffft." Hanako couldn't help but laugh, she looked so silly. She let the air out and looked down at him all annoyed. "What were you even doing?" "Uhh! Trying to focus, no thanks to you!" Nene huffed out quietly.

   Next thing they knew the day was over.

  Lmao the story is set after picture perfect now instead of clock keepers, sorry!

  I actually have goldfish named after the toiletbound characters. I was an idiot and thought that Tsuchigomori was a good name for a fish last year. Way too long now that I think of it. The other two were named Hanako and Yashiro, Hanako died though lol. (how cannon of him)
