Day 24

Usagi :

Did I just get a date?

I thought, my face heated immensely. I shook my head.

No, I can't think about it too much. He just wants to prove a point, or wants to be right or something like that.

I continued walking still looking over the text. I wonder if he's mad that I sent something like that... Now that I think about it it's the equivalent of saying he's boring! Oh no!!

I slammed my hands on my face thinking of how stupid it was to do something like that.

"Idiot.. Idiot.. Idiot.." I muttered continuously. "What are you doing?" A calm but fierce voice said behind me. I jumped in fright and looked behind me,"a-Akashi!" I spun to look at him. "I asked you a question. What were you just doing." He leaned down towards my face closer. "N-nothing!" A smirk formed on his lips. "I see then. It must be nothing after all." He turned to leave but said one last thing before he continued to walk."don't be late" then he left.

"W-what was that.." I could hear my heart ramming itself over and over against my chest.

A ding reached my ears and I took at my cellphone.

Kotaro: hi Yama-chan! Could you stay a bit after school and help with the art club? Thank you, much appreciated!

What!? No way! I had something to do after school.. Akashi would kill me if I was late. But I can't just ditch the art club.. I'll just have to make it really quick. .

"Thanks for helping out Yama-San!" Rika smiled as she put away the rest of the things."no problem, rika-chan! I have to go now, see you tomorrow!" I waved goodbye. I then quickly ran to the front gate wondering if Akashi was still waiting. I looked down at my phone to see I was 30 minutes late! no way he'd still be waiting.

I looked around to see no one around. I sighed and sat down. Of course he isn't here.. What did I expect-

"You're late. Why." I looked up to see Akashi staring down at me. "W-what.." I softly said as I looked up at him. He stared down at me with a calm but angry expression.

"Don't make me repeat myself." He stated. My eyes widened. "U-um.. Art club." He's calm face stayed stone."I see.." He put a hand to his mouth in thought. "Fine, I will forgive you this once." He took out a hand to help me up. I stared at it with red cheeks and took it. He's hand was hard and wrapped tightly around mine."you better not be late again." He said as he pulled me up and let go of me. I found myself missing his hand.

"Let's go." He said as he walked without me,"where?.." I questioned, following behind him. "Here." He pushed a piece of paper to my face. I took it softly and stared down at it. "The festival?" I asked looked up at him again. "You didn't think I called you out here for no reason did you?" He smirked with a glint in his eyes crossing his arms.

"I'm going to show you that I am always right."
