☆ I need the ring ☆

18 - phoenix

You woke up with a heavy heart, worried of what might happen if you see Masa again. You already had to deal with the fact that you only have one ring on your hand left.

Tomorrow I'll have nothing. I have to be careful.

You get up and start to get ready, ignoring the fact that Saiki is already in the living room. You were too occupied with thinking that you hadn't noticed that, Saiki has already tried to get your attention 5 times.

Saiki pokes your hand "Hana....?"

You snap out of your thoughts and answer with a Hm.

You saw a bit of worry in his eyes and tried to pretend you're fine. Saiki saw through your act. You stand up and take your bag, ready to leave. You started to open the door but you were stopped by a hug. It was very surprising indeed.

"Uh- Saiki what are you doing? you mutter quietly. Yet he doesn't answer, just stands back and acts like nothing happened.

You both walk to school, now your face is wearing a big smile. You again look at nature, which has become a daily routine.

Saiki was staring at you, happy to see that you have calmed down as well. He didn't know why he felt happy, but he did.

At school, by the lockers Nendo, Kaido, Aren, Teruhashi and Chiyo asked Saiki to hang out at the beach with them. You were about to disappear to the bathroom, accepting that you were forgotten.

Before you could leave, Aren turned to you "Oh and of course Hana, you want to join us too?"

You gave a small nod

Why not, I haven't been to the beach in a long time.

The classes started and you saw Masa glaring at you. You felt as if his eyes burned a hole in your face.

You tried to read his mind, but it was too filled with thoughts that you tried to ignore him. The one thing you hear mostly from him was

"Liar"

-

Lunch, finally.

You ate with all your friends, including Masa now. Again you felt someone staring at you. Well, now it was two people.

Saiki and Masa. The thing was, you knew why Masa was staring, but you never knew why Saiki was.

You couldn't help but turn you head towards Saiki, who now turned to look away.

The room was full of chattering, so you could talk to him normally "What are you staring at?"

He didn't answer. You felt extremely irritated, all of your stress catching up now. Usually you would smile and nod, but you did neither.

You gave him a glare and stood up, leaving earlier than others.

I might act like a kid, but who cares right? I am a kid and an idiot in their eyes anyways.

Everyone started quietly as you left, Masa now following you "Hana! Wait for your friend!"

You started walking faster.

A few minutes later, you were by the school gate, Masa still following like a lost puppy.

You decided that you could just walk home, but your brother was standing before you.

"Oh fuck you" you sighed as you were now in a trapped between two people you didn't want to see.

Daichi said "Oh I see you met your old friend!"
