Devil

"What do you mean 'devil is back',? I never thought there will be a day when you would use such language, Mashiro-san." Kairi asked.

"She means Hinamori Is Back!," Tadase answered in Rima's Defense. Then there was a deadly silence for a moment...which Yaya decided to broke off.

"So, Am-Hinamori is back...in town?? And you called her devil!? Haha.. Nice...but I would rather call it 'HAIB'~ Cute ,No? Teehee..," Yaya said with Laugh, although it didn't reach her eyes. Her eyes were polar opposite to what she was saying.. On outside, she was trying hard to act cheerful and optimistic which of course everyone realized, it was obvious that she was wanted to cry. In Grief. She was happy after all that Amu was back but it didn't change the fact that she was not their friend anymore, she left them for whatever reason they are not aware of.

"Can't you just say this normally? And by normal, I mean without using your... sense." Kairi complained.

"You are joking right? I mean this whole hinamori thing...," Kukai asks if this is a stupid joke as he spells word with so much vemon. He was one of those people who started to despise Amu after her betrayal. She was the last person he thought would leave him in dust. They were that close. And at the moment he was fuming at the thought of her arrival.

While kairi, On other hand was completely calm and reserved. He didn't let any stupid emotion dominate his face. He wore a completely neutral persona. Unlike his appearance from outside, insides of his were boiling with anger. He felt like he would kill anyone at the moment who come to annoy him, intentionally or not.

"Kukai...," Nagi murmurs, glancing at him. It was so unlike him, it was polar opposite of what he reacted minutes before.

Nagihko's POV
After the first period, rest of the classes went what felt like a WHOLE freaking year. Normally I never curses, but today, all I was doing was cursing the pink haired girl. Her returning, itself was a mistake but her smirking at our distress didn't make things any better.

Just as the last bell rang signalling the school is finally over, Tadase, rima and I rushed out of the class as we saw amu approaching us. We rushed to the royal garden. I was the last one to enter there as I was stopped in midst when I felt some pair of eyes boring my back. I turned and looked around to find the source.
But found nothing so I resumed my sprint to royal garden.

I entered and closed the door behind my back. I saw yaya and Kukai arguing and kairi, ever so calmly, drinking what seemed like his favorite herbal tea. Soon they noticed our presence and approached us hurriedly, (except kairi who walking yet calmly) asking what was the matter.

"Woah, look at you all covered in sweat. That's not a very pleasant view to watch. Were you guys on marathon or something? And you didn't even invited me~ ," kukai whined about how he was not invited. Kairi shook his head at kukai, disapprovingly.

"Hotori-San, what is the matter? You three look like your were running frantically away from someone," Kairi said, looking at us from head to toe. "So, care to explain us?," That's right, kairi. We definitely were running away from Ex-Joker. How does that sound? Funny, right? I mentally answered his question. Of course, no one heard it.

"Actually... That...well..today..that she came and...all happened so fast that...we..," tadase tried to voice his words but failed miserably. He was on verge of breakdown. Kairi noticed this and calmed the king down. After all he is or was jack.

"Calm down, king. Fujisaki-san," he motioned me answer the very question he asked earlier. But unfortunately I was in same condition as tadase. So...I answered him with "Ask Rima-chan." I noticed rima's eyes widening and then glaring hard at me. I simply looked away from her gaze.
