'Ace's POV'

Man, This day had been very, what's the word, extravagant? Maybe, Bizarre? Perhaps, but not those words I might say about today to be honest. I mean, I had a normal conversation with my crush and it was kinda nice, and we talked about some things, and he basically befriended someone like me, I mean could this day get any better!

Then the third period bell rang, I groaned at the fact third period is up, I just hate Math with Professor Kuro, I hate that mothetfucker. So like any sensible person would do, I skip that class. Fuck Math, like who in the right mind likes math of all subjects? I headed to the staircase when I was met with a voice behind me, shrieking at me, "Hey! You're not following the dress code, again!!".

I turned around towards the voice, only to be met with none other than Emporio Ivankov, the student body secretary, and the so called 'Fashion Police' or whatever he calls himself again today. I heavily sighed as he walked towards my direction, "do you have any idea how many times you keep breaking the dress code?".

"Look here, Ivankov... the dress code literally stated that it's alright to wear a white t-shirt, as long as there is no print or pattern...", I respond grabbing my shirt, "...and as you can see, MY T-SHIRT   doesn't have prints nor patterns, so why bother disciplining me when it's in the dress code", I could hear it in my voice that I've gotten a bit agitated by this guy.

He whipped out his book which was a 'rule book' he called it, and flip through every page until he sees what he was looking for, "aha! It also states here that you get to vear a t-shirt only for 2-4 months in school, and it has been 6 months by now, so Ha!"

'Is he fucking serious right now? All this for a dress code valuation?', I thought to myself. I clicked my tongue and replied while trying to not sound a bit annoyed even tho I am, "Okay, okay... I'll accept my- HEY SOMEONE IS WEARING A CROP-TOP!!".

"Vhat?! Vhere!!", he shouted shooting his head at the other direction, clearly avoiding me right now.

'Now's my chance', I quickly bolted to the staircase, ignoring the faint voice of his in the distance. I just can't help but grinned at what I just did, I mean, it's like grabbing something like that from an old trick in the book. It was classic. I finally reached to the main floor and headed to the back of the school, but when I got there no one was there. I took out my phone and tried to call Marco or anyone, then I saw a text message from Marco saying that him and everyone else got into trouble and are in detention, while the rest are in their classes, 'Woof... sorry for them'. Well since that they're not here, might as well stay here until the next bell rings. I opened my phone and went through my social media's, since I got nothing better to do I might as well just go to my socials, and nothing seems too out of the ordinary, just other school gang's tagging me on another challenge, girls adding me, and some school announcements here and there.

It got a bit too boring, so I opened Tiktok and began scrolling the for you page. A few seconds had past and it got boring once again, like come on world give me something exciting today!

...

Of course nothing happens when you wish for it, I sighed and closed my phone, tucking it away, and drifting my attention to the sunny sky. This is mostly one of the best times to reminisce on old memories, joyful ones and painful ones. I try to think back about my conversation with Sabo earlier, I just really couldn't believe that me and him...

"Oh hello Ace".

"Jesus Christ!", I shouted from the sudden voice behind me. I kinda fell back to the concrete floor as I hissed in pain a bit. I shot my head to the source of the voice, only to meet one of my friends, Yamato. "Yamato for the love of God, can you stop with the fucking jumpscares, you're gonna give me a fucking heart attack at the rate!", I said while I rose myself up.

She just giggled at me and sat down cross from me, Yamato is a nice friend to be honest, sure she had a shitty dad while growing up in solitude for god knows how long, but as she got older so did her attitude towards her dad. Her rebellion against her dad was her new style, she dyed her original hair color to white with green fades on her ends, ever since elementary she has become my friend while I become her first friend. How do I know this, well she told me when I first meet her, she was partially crying when she told that story.

"So... what class did you skip?", I asked her, dusting myself off.

She immediately respond, "well there was Literature with Teacher Alvida, but it was too boring since most of the boys would just flirt with her, and the girls would try to persuade her to not do a lesson that they aren't interested in, I mean, bruh... I don't have the fucking time to hear flirty words coming from their disgusting mouths".

I cringed at the fact that students would try to flirt with a teacher, "bro... too weird for me, let's just change the subject", I respond to her as she nodded in agreement.

"So how's the love hunt?".

"Okay any subject but that...".

She rolled her eyes and scooted a bit closer to me, "bitch you better tell me right now, or I will try to grind you into paste...", she said intimidating.

I gulped and surrendered, "...fine, I guess it's going... alright, I mean I had a normal conversation with... him".

"Wait wait wait, back up!", she spoke stopping me to say anything else, "your crush is a he?! Why didn't ya tell me about that? Also did you tell anyone else about this?".

"Well I already told Marco about this, and the reason is that I couldn't find the best time to tell any of you guys, so you could say that I was kinda... afraid?".

Yamato placed her hand on my shoulder, and spoke "first off; that's bullshit, why would you be afraid to tell us about it, besides... in time, everyone will eventually figure it out...", she paused for a while then continued as she placed her other hand on my other shoulder, "second off;...", she then violently shook me back and forth, "DO YOU REALLY WANT THE OTHERS TO BE WORRIED ABOUT YOU IF YOU KEEP THIS BOTTLED UP!! YOU SHOULD JUST TRUST US MORE OFTEN, YOU HEAR ME YOU BASTARD!!!".

"Okay okay!! Just let me go, I'm feeling a bit woozy right now...", I spoke as I fought the urge to throw up. She eventually stops shaking me and lets me go, it took a while for me to regain my mind from earlier. "Yeah, you're right...", I respond adjusting myself a bit, "... I will make everyone worry about me if I don't tell them, and yes, I should trust you guys more, sorry about that".

She puffed her cheeks, kinda childish if you ask me, I didn't noticed at first that the fourth period bell rang. We both looked at each other and immediately dashed inside the building, she went on her own direction of her fourth period, while I ran to my classroom. I quickly changed my direction towards the stairs, I dashed passing floors quickly, as I almost reached the 4 floor when I saw someone running also towards the stairs, hitting them in the process as we both tumbled down the stairs, it left like time somehow slowed down for me, because as we both fell down, I was fast enough to cover their head with my arms as my head hit the wall behind us, my head kinda felt like it was leaking something, my vision slowly went black as my eyelids felt heavy. My eyes wanted to shut them, but I tried to get a little glimpse of the person I ran into, but all I could see was blonde hair and a faint voice as darkness was I could see.
