"Inside the Mind of the (Idiot) Mastermind!" (Ayanokoji x Horikita)

(Main AU Ch 2) Ayanokoji is easy to bribe by food

Ayanokoji POV

Few days have passed by. I have started to talk a bit more with Ike, Yamauchi and Sudo.

Once again, I'm being dragged by them.

"Why am I always the one who is being dragged around? Do they think I don't have legs? Or do they think my legs got cut off?"

"Ayanokoji, you traitor!" Ike and Yamauchi scream in my ear at the same time.

"What?" I reply, I was quite perplexed by their sudden accusation. 
"What did I do this time?"

"How is she like?"

"How is who like?"

"YOUR GIRLFRIEND!" 

"Should I be flattered that they think my unsocial ass is capable of  getting a girlfriend?"

"I don't have a girlfriend.."

"LIAR! You've got eyes for Horikita, right?!"

"I think I would get slapped, beaten up and humiliated if I ever even suggested that to Horikita. I think it would be better if I don't. Or wait.. Should I? Maybe I should. Would she really beat me up? I could do that for research purposes... Definitely not cause I want to get humiliated by her."  

"No."

"But you act all lovey-dovey in class!" Ike exclaims.

"Flashbacks to the time she put thumbtacks on my chair, stabbed me with a compass and threatened to bestow punishments upon me. Yes. Lovey-dovey. Definitely. She's very into me. Is this how women in society are? Or maybe Horikita is just crazy.."

"How did you conclude that? We barely talk." I reply

The two don't reply to my question. Instead, they start yapping about Kushida again. These two scare me with their 'Kushida fantasies' sometimes. Truly degenerate behaviour. 

"If I ever thought about stuff like this and Horikita found out I would probably be tortured for the rest of my life.."

I hear that Ike and Yamauchi have left the topic of Kushida in their conversation and have instead moved onto the points they have left. They both each had 5000 points left at most.

This month has been like luxury for most students, they all have been mindlessly spending all their points without thinking of any possible consequences.

Chaos. 

Nobody in class received any points at the starting of the following month.

("Not going to have any more luxury now, huh? I suspected this would happen. There are 40 students in each class, and 4 classes per year. That would mean 160 students in year 1 and 480 students in total. That would've totaled up to 480,000,000 yen that the school had to pay per month... Anyways, what flavour of yogurt should I buy today?")

"How does this guy always go from big calculations to the most random and stupid topics?" Horikita thinks to herself.

A lot of irresponsible people who had spent all of their points were now pretty much asking others to lend them some points. On the other hand, Horikita comes up to me during lunch break.

"Are you free? I was wondering if you could join me for lunch." she asks.

Huh?

("Is this a trick?" )

There it was. She bought me the most expensive item on the cafeteria menu.

I blankly stare at her, still suspicious of why she would buy food for me.
