Paper Planes : Chapter Three

It's the next day

I am devastated to know that Maki likes me and it was from him not Kokona...Kokona why did you have to smile like that!?! But main question here is...Why the fucking hell is a guy in love with me.

I looked into the mirror and pulled over a black hoodie. "I look manly, I am not gay" I looked at myself in the mirror confused. "AHHHH! I don't like Maki liking me!?! I am straight!!!" I yelled and sighed.

I dressed myself back into my uniform and headed over to school. 

Day passed by I looked at the slip still empty without an answer from my end. "What are you doing?" Yuma asked. I swiftly hid the paper and smiled at him awkwardly. "Oh!!~ I haven't had my breakfast cuz I was running late, let me eat before that headache walks in" I smiled awkwardly. 

"Yuma" I called and he looked at me with a full mouth asking me to continue with his eyes. "What would you do if I guy likes you, no! What would you feel like if you like a guy?" I asked him. He chocked on his noodles and glared at me. "What kind of stupid nonsense is that!?! How can a guy like guy...that's too western!" He said and stuffed himself angrily.

"That was too much reaction..." I looked at him confused as he chugged down the noodles and drank the broth only to choke on it. "Are you ok?" A tall dude walked in rubbing Yuma's chest letting him swallow slowly. "Eat slowly, Teacher is absent today" He said and smiled and walked away.

Wait! Did my thoughts just ship them...!?! No! Harua get a grip! You ARE STRAIGHT.

"It must be a prank" Yuma said and laughed awkwardly walking away from the desk. Right...it could be a prank. I walked over to Maki who was talking to Niki and pulled him out of the class to the rooftop.

"H-Harua" Maki looked at me confused. "You..." I bit my lip and ruffled my hair frustratedly. "do you really like me?" I asked him. He looked at me with wide eyes. "Let's talk about 'How I know' details later now tell me if it's real?" I asked him. He looked down and nodded.

I knocked him to the wall while punching the wall next to his face. "Are you sure you are not taking me for a loser?" I asked him. He looked to the side panicking. I placed my hand other side. "Don't try to escape from the question" I asked him trapping him in between. "I do, I like you!" He yelled closing his eyes trying not to look into my eyes. 

"Talk to me while looking me into the eye, how will I believe it's true if you don't?" I asked him. He looked me into my eyes and stood straight. To day he is a bit tall. He looked down into my eyes. His brown eyes were shinning under the sunlight.

"Look" He held my cheeks and lifted my eyes towards him. "Do I look like I am lying about my feelings towards you" He asked. I looked into his eyes which looked so sincere and true as ever. "B-But we never even spoke to each other how can you like me?" I panicked and removed his hands from my cheeks.

"I don't know, it just happened on White day, I saw you smile and fell for you, you have a pretty heart and a pretty smile." He said with happy eyes.

He fell in love with me on the day I started liking Kokona?

What coincidence is this?

I shouldn't tell him about Kokona, it'll only hurt his feelings.

I suddenly felt Maki hold my hand and place it on his chest. "This is the truth, even if you hate it. I wish...you like me back though that makes me sound selfish but you are free to reject me and go away, it's my feelings I can deal with them" He said. I felt his heart thumping like crazy from the clothes over it.

Is he for real?

I do wish the same for Kokona...

"Y-You are selfish, everyone wants that from their crush...it's just sincere feelings but...Maki, I don't think I can handle a huge change in my life in a day--"

"I haven't said this before, but I don't think I can move on from you, sorry for pressuring you and sorry for liking you, I know it's not common" He sighed looking down.

"I can't guarantee that I will like you in the future, but how about we get to know each other?" I asked him. I don't know why, I feel like I can't reject him, his feelings are way too sincere to be rejected in a second.

I feel bad.

I saw his eyes lit up as soon as I said that. "THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!" He yelled jumping around while holding my hand. I looked at him and smiled.

"How about...wait, I'll get a notebook and place it in the broadcast request box, Since I am the one in charge of it, I can take it out and write it back to you. It's not because I am embarrassed or something it's--"

"It would be weird if we start talking out of no where?" He asked and I nodded.

"But..." He walked closer and pulled my bangs up. "You should show your forehead, you look cool" He said and smiled.

Seriously...

Not the Kokona Move.

"W-We are getting late for the class" I panicked and ran out of the place.

Somehow, I don't want to hurt his feelings...He seems like a good person. I had hated him before because he was so popular and I thought he might be a jerky-jock like in those english movies but he is a softie...

Yuma POV 

"Oh shit" I sighed walking into the restroom...Why did Harua ask a question like that and why the hell did I reply like that!?! I sound so homophobic when I am trying my best to come out...I wasn't ready Harua, I am sorry that I hid this from you!!

"Liking someone isn't wrong" I heard a deep raspy voice and flinched. "Jo?" I looked at him. "Why do you think that someone would prank about something that's about sincere feelings" He asked looked at me angrily. Yeah right, I don't know why I said that earlier either Jo.

"I just thought of a possibility" Yes, let's be the jerk like I sounded earlier. "Tch! You are homophobic and you have a nerve to say that it's a prank. You are really bad. Liking someone is not wrong!" Jo glared and walked away.

"You don't have to tell me that...and I am not homophobic" I sighed looking into the mirror.

"It's just a new year of high school, I already made an enemy" I sighed and walked out.
