Doraemon [ But it's 18+]

● Prince and his Princess

It was 8:00 am, and the class was a mess already.
Gian was completing his homework in a rush as Suniyo dictated answers to him. Shizuka was busy doing her usual morning makeup while gossiping continued in the background.

Amid all the chaos Nobita and Akira were busy discussing their yesterday's assignment. Something Nobita never did before. He only used to check his answers while the teacher dictated them.

"Is it 370?"

"Hold on I think we did something wrong in subtraction"

The class went silent the moment the door slid. Mrs. Yuri entered as the class stood up to greet her.
However, everyone was quick to notice her mood wasn't very well today.

"Good morning teacher"

"Sit," she said in a cold tone.

Students took their seats while terror gripped each one of them. There was pin-drop silence. No one dared to move a muscle. Fooling around while Mrs. Yuri was in a bad mood was simply suicidal.

The teacher sighed as she pulled out a white paper from her pocket.

"It says that our class is in the last position when it comes to extracurricular activities, due to which the entire grade can be affected"

She crushed the paper and threw it into the nearby dustbin.

"Nonsense! When will the children have time to study? These textbooks are going to decide their future, not these idiotic plays"

Not something that was taught before high school but sadly she wasn't wrong either.

"Well, we can't risk our grades so I need volunteers for the play"

"For what role mam?" Gian asked curiously.

"We are going to depict a proposal scene where a prince falls in love with a common girl knowing that his family and society will never approve of it"

"I will be the prince!" Gian exclaimed. If there was anything one could learn from Gian, it was confidence.

"Please Gian" Suniyo stood up while he fixed his hair. "If anyone who can perform this role realistically is me, after all, I am the richest among you all"

"Who would even want to marry a man whose face looks like a pointed beak"

Gian taunted Suniyo while the laughter and cheers followed.

"Silence!" The teacher slammed her book on the table. Her eyes then landed on Dekisugi who was sitting beside Ida.

"Dekisugi?"

"Yes mam" Dekisugi stood up on his seat.

"Can you suggest someone for the role of prince?"

Dekisugi thought for a moment, then a smirk formed on his face.

"Ida"

"Ida? Why?"

"He has a good command of the literature and has been the lead speaker in most of the concerts and assemblies, I think he will do justice to his role"

Every single word Dekisugi spoke was not a lie, Ida was a great speaker, and his expressions and confidence always made the speeches less boring. But now as the reasonable answer was given, he didn't forget to add icing on the top.

"And he is handsome too"

The teacher took a good look at Ida. Well, he was. Dekisugi didn't lie on this one too, it's just that he would never personally comment on others openly.
He did that to seek someone's attention.

Dekisugi glanced at Nobita, who didn't look much phased, nothing new. He was always unbothered. But Akira didn't look much happy. A smile formed on Dekisugi's face, *"Ida would scream from happiness"* He thought.

"Perfect! Ida, you will play the role of the prince"

Dekisugi took his seat and excitedly patted Ida.

"He might like you"

"Shut up!" They giggled.

"Nobita?"

"Yes mam" Nobita stood in his seat.

"Princess"

Nobita was lost but didn't lose his composure. He looked around to find the most accurate answer. He wouldn't have to do that if he was asked 5 years ago, there was only one princess for him.

"Nobita! What are you even thinking about? It's Shizuka!" Gian said knowing he somewhere opened the old wounds.

"Nari" Nobita answered while looking towards Mrs Yuri.

"Why?"

"She is smart, has been in many plays before thus has the experience, moreover she does have a great stage presence and is a master at expressing raw emotions, she was awarded the best performance tag back in 8th std"

"I didn't know that! That's it then, Nari will play the princess"

"Also Gian.." Everyone saw it coming. There's no way Nobita didn't notice what Gian was trying to do.

"It's about resonating with the character, a kind, beautiful simple girl, who loves the prince but doesn't know how to express it as she is aware that his family and society will reject her, not someone who thinks doing drugs and having sex with random strangers is lifetime achievement"

The entire class gasped. Who expected that Nobita Nobi would insult Shizuka so brutally, and that too in front of the class teacher!

"The fuck Nobita!!" Shizuka screamed in horror.

"Mind your language Shizuka!" The teacher said in anguish.

"Mam didn't you hear what he said-"

"Well it's true, isn't it?"

"Wha-what?" Her eyes were moist. It may take its time, but karma does hit back.

"Don't pretend like you're innocent, everyone knows about your character, honestly I am surprised how you still manage to get a decent score"

"You can't talk to me like that!" She yelled.

"Yes I can, now sit down, don't embarrass yourself"

"Fuck you!!" She yelled while a tear rolled down her cheek. She picked up her bag and walked out of the class while angrily sliding the door shut.

"Let her be, I feel bad for her poor parents, God knows how many times they have requested me to keep a check on her"

[LAST PERIOD]

"What about Nobita?" Ida whispered.

"What about him?"

"How did he react?"

"He didn't, he never does"

"Maybe he is trying to hide it?"

"He is not gay, Shizuka was his very first crush, who broke his heart, which ironically motivated him to be a much better version of himself, he will become successful, then marry a girl and will live a decent life"

"Damn, didn't know you were that hopeless"

*chuckles* "Just let me be"

"Nobita and Dekisugi" Ms. Yuri called out the names.

"Yes mam" they both responded while simultaneously standing up.

"Come here"

They both made their way to the teacher.

"I need you both to write the dialogues of the prince and the common girl, do it together, individually, I don't care, I just want the scripts on time so that the actors can practice, the performance has to be done next week"

"Yes mam" they both replied together.

"You both may leave now"

Dekisugi was on his way back to his seat just when Nobita grabbed his hand and whispered to him,

"Meet me at the library after the school is over"
