Loveit? (Pregame Oumasai) (Danganronpa)

I'm Creeping into your Flesh

🌿Alright, new story! Updating every Thursday. It isn't gonna be a long one but I'm putting in a lot of effort for this one. If you recognize the song in the title, I promise this isn't just a copy of the story in the song. I added original ideas in here. If you haven't heard the song yet, please don't look it up yet. Though I added original ideas, there are still a few parts from it that I'd like to be a surprise here. Anyways, some of you wanted cannibal Shuichi back. Here he is. But different. I won't delete this one because it's gonna be more than just romanticizing cannibalism like that old one.🌿

...

Shuichi Saihara wasn't considered a normal student to most of his classmates. Sure, his grades were high, and he never missed a day, nor acted out in class. There was just something about him that creeped people out. Maybe it was the way he stared at people, analyzing them and adjusting his personality accordingly. Perhaps it was the way he was friends with Kaito, a loudmouth bully who spreads a few lies about him occasionally. Some might even think it's the way he seems to get a masochistic joy out of being bullied, smiling as people kicked him in the stomach.

Currently, that's where he was. A blonde girl stood above him, sinking her foot deeper in his stomach. His smile pissed her off more into stomping harder. However, no matter how hard she hit or kicked him, that look of pleasure in his eyes didn't faulter, eventually leading to her stopping. All she wanted was for him to look at her in fear as she made her demands. But it became clear that wasn't happening, leading her to huff as she took a few steps back.

"Genuinely, what is wrong with you," Kaede asked. "Would you stop looking at me like that already? This isn't a fucking joke. I don't like how you've been hanging around my sister lately. She doesn't need to get caught up in whatever disgusting shit you do."

Shuichi coughed a bit before replying, "She can make her own choices. If she wants to stop being friends with me, I won't stop her."

Kaede moved her hands in the motion of threatening to strangle him, the only thing stopping her being that she couldn't stand looking at his deranged eyes any longer. Taking a deep breath, she turned away to have a chat with her sister instead. Once gone, Shuichi's smile dropped, mumbling in anger as he pushed himself up against the wall. Truthfully, nothing about this encounter had been enjoyable. The only reason he reacts this way is because it usually scares bullies into avoiding him. It usually doesn't take long enough for him to get genuine injuries that require the school nurse, though Kaede was more persistent than others, landing her as a name on his list. Taking a few more deep breaths, he tried steadying himself into standing, determined to not ruin his perfect attendance. Stumbling forward, he made his way to class.

Students watched him in fear as he made his way down the halls. Despite him being the one wounded, their expressions were as if he just committed a murder. These things usually didn't bother him anymore, but today he was especially pissed off. All of this for a girl he wasn't even sure he'd call a friend. More like someone determined to prove everyone wrong by befriending the weird kid. She claimed she genuinely had an interest in him, but he wouldn't believe that for a second. Refusing to look anyone in the face, he made his way into his classroom and practically fell onto his seat, relief going through his body. However, it didn't last long, as Kaito pulled up his seat next to him and patted him on the back.

"I'm assuming Kaede took my warning to heart," he asked, smirking.

Shuichi rolled his eyes, not surprised Kaito was the reason for this morning's beating. The only thing keeping Kaito off of the list was their past relations. Childhood friends eventually turned to enemies. Well, kind of. Neither could call each other a friend out loud, but they also wouldn't say enemies. There was a weird middle thing there that Shuichi didn't bother to question. Part of him wanted to believe there was still the old Kaito in there. That one day he'd come back, and they could pretend this phase never happened. Until then, he'd put up with the abuse. It isn't like it would make a difference anyways. Kaito would most likely continue this whether they were friends or not. This was more for Shuichi's peace of mind.
