♡Nothing I Bake Is As Sweet As You♡ (Ayano x Amai)

8. A war with no winners (Part 1)

A/N: There are two parts of this. Also, TRIGGER WARNING for blood, slurs, and violence. Other than that, enjoy :D!

Ayano woke up to the sound of her alarm. She groaned and felt a pair of arms wrapped around her. She smiled and kissed the small girl's head. "Amai. We have to wake up." Ayano whispered. Amai groaned and turned to face the wall. Ayano chuckled a bit. "C'mon sleepy head. My mom should be home right now. You get to meet her~" She offered. Amai then sat up and rubbed her eyes. "Okay, you drive a hard bargain missy." Amai giggled, poking Ayano's cheek.

"Mom!" Ayano called out. "Down here making breakfast sweetie." Her mom sang. Amai looked at Ayano and smiled. The two then walked downstairs to sit at the dining room table, where Ayato already was. "Oh, who is this cutie?" Ryoba Aishi asked. Ayano rolled her eyes. "She's my girlfriend ma." She said, as Amai waved. Ms. Aishi squealed as she walked over to her (someday) daughter in law. " Awww, such a cute face for my cute daughter. What's your name dear?" She asked, pinching the small girl's cheek. "Amai Odayaka ma'am." She giggled.

"Okay mom, that's enough!" Ayano gritted, trying to get her mom off of Amai. "Stop embarrassing me." Ms. Aishi laughed as she put food on the plates. "You can't be any more embarrassing Ayano." Ayato mocked, rolling his eyes. Ayano stared daggers at him, as Amai laughed. She then kissed the tall girl on her cheek. "I love you so much Ayano!" Amai grinned. Ayano then scooped her up into a hug. "I love you too." She mumbled in her girlfriend's chest.

After breakfast, the three got dropped off by Ryoba. "Have a nice day dearies~" She hummed, as she drove away. Ayato decided to wait for Budo, while Ayano and Amai held hands and walked into the school. Everyone was whispering, which bothered Ayano, but she tried to ignore it like Amai. Soon, Ayano felt a tap on her shoulder and she turned around to see Mai Waifu with her phone in hand. "They're staring because of this. The whole video spread like wildfire last night." On her phone it was a picture of Amai and Ayano confessing their love for each other.

"Aww look! The gay girls are finally here!" Musume pointed as she giggled, everyone in her group soon followed shortly. Amai was in shock from everything, not knowing what was happening. She hid behind Ayano, frowning. The taller girl looked back at her and gave a reassuring smile. "Go to your club, I'll handle this." She whispered, to which Amai nodded and hurried off. Musume clicked her tongue as she watched. "Well, you sure do know how to pick them, don't you?" She asked, much to Ayano's distaste.

"Listen Ronshaku, I couldn't care less what you said about me, but don't you ever, ever speak to Amai like that, okay?" She spat, trying to keep her rage to a minimum. Between her and Ayato, she was always the more calm twin. But apparently her patience was being tested. Hana giggled before putting her hands up in defense jokingly. "Watch out girls, Miss Aishi's getting upset with us." Kashiko soon walked up to Ayano and smirked. "Luckily for us, we know you're just a big softie inside, all bark and no bite." She got closer to her face and whispered. "The video proves it."

Ayano pushed her away before balling her fist up. "Get your plastic ass away from me. All of you." She pointed, to which Kashiko giggled. "It was just a joke, jeez. What would your precious Amai think of this behavior?" She asked, making everyone surround them in the front of the school. Jeez, where was the staff when you needed them? Hana rolled her eyes before speaking. "Oh please!" She said, dragging her words. "Everyone should automatically know that her and her creepy ass brother that their family is fucked up!" She chuckled.

At this point Ayano had enough. She spotted her friends in the crowd of people and decided to leave the conversation entirely. As she walked away, she heard Hoshiko laugh. "There she goes, walking to her weird ass friends. You leaving this conversation won't dismiss the fact that you're a disgusting freak. You and your faggot homeschooled airheaded soft bitch of a girlfriend."

With that comment, everyone went silent, including the bullies. Musume looked at Hoshiko with wide eyes and mouth agape. "Woah girl..." She whispered. Ayano slowly turned around, her eyes turning dark. "I'm sorry...what did you call her?" She asked, walking towards the green clad. Kokoro stepped in between them, nervous. "Look, Ayano...let's not do things we won't regret..." She muttered, turning towards Hoshiko. "We'll just leave and forget about all of this-"

Ayano simply pushed the girl to the side before grabbing the crude bully by her collar, making her let out a squeak in surprise. "Take back what you said." Her voice void of any emotion. Hoshiko simply laughed before rolling his eyes. "You don't scare me. Just because your mom killed people doesn't mean you're hot shit."

Everyone gasped as she fell to the ground, holding her jaw as Ayano watched. She looked down at the blood on her hands before smiling and laughing like a psychopath. Everyone started to back off away from her, even the bullies ran away, leaving Hoshiko alone on the ground. "Oh...you fucked up now..." She chuckled, pulling out a pocket knife from her pocket before struggling to get up. Ayano then pulled out a knife from her skirt, continuing to laugh.

All of Ayano's friends looked at each other, knowing that trying to stop her was hopeless. She noticed her friends' hesitancy and pointed her knife at them, still grinning. "I suggest you get out of here before it gets bloody. Oh and maybe don't tell Amai about this little incident, hm?" She said menacingly, to which Horuda and Hazu quickly paced away. Kuu looked at her before shaking her head. "This is suicide." She said before walking off, leaving the two girls alone to fight violently.

---------------

Amai heard all of her club members chat about what happened outside with Ayano. Her stomach grew tight as she worried for her girlfriend. She closed her eyes and tried to focus on her breathing while she was cutting up apples, which was indeed a mistake because she soon cut her finger accidentally. Shoku, who was the cooking club president at the time, noticed this and came to her aid. "Oh my, Amai! Are you alright?" He asked, holding her hand.

Amai blinked and noticed her bloody finger before she shook her head and smiled at him. "I'm alright. Just...worried..." She muttered, taking her hand back and rinsing it under the sink while Shoku watched, frowning. "Is it about the video?" He asked, which made Amai groan. Saki noticed and patted her back while glaring at the club president. "Maybe she doesn't want to talk about it, Shoku. That was a private moment for her and Ayano." She pointed out, pulling out a band-aid and placing it on Amai.

The kitchen then went silent, everyone doing their own thing after Saki's comment. Amai looked out the window for a moment, seeing the teachers and students run out to the front of the school. "What the...?" She muttered, before Kokoro ran into the cooking club, panting. "Amai!" She yelled, grabbing the girl. "W-what's going on?" She asked, a bit scared at her exclamation.

 "No time to explain, you're coming with me. And Saki." She pointed to the blue haired girl, also grabbing her. She dragged the two out, much to Saki's surprise. "W-why me! What's happening?" She asked. "Kokona told me to get you. We have to hurry." She explained with haste, running all the way up to the top of the roof with the two. Amai was out of breath, but Kokoro was determined to get the two girls to safety.

When they reached the top, Kokoro closed the door and pulled the baker to a corner where the big clock was. She noticed all of Ayano's friends were up there. "W-what happened?" Amai panted, frowning. Saki ran up to Kokona and hugged her, awaiting for an answer. Osana was the first to speak up, sighing. "Ayano went rogue."

A/N: Edited this chapter heavily. Wanted to take a different route in this story. Chapter 9 is next for me to edit.
