Admit it

Chapter 11: Windows

Souji POV

A month has passed since the first day I met Hajime-Kun, honestly I can't tell whether he likes me anymore than he did that day I knocked him over because of the ice; that was the last week of November now it's the last week of term in December, we have one day left and he's still making me study.

"Hajime." I said, slamming my book down in the library, "It's the last day of school for the holidays, let's take a break for a few weeks!" I said hopelessly. His pencil stopped scrawling across his page, his sharp blue eyes snapped to my green ones, "Okita-San. You are only beginning to scratch the surface of your year groups work. We will not stop until you are at the same level as all your classmates."

Turning over a blank page, he began writing out equation after equation for physics and maths. "I have a head ache." I got up, walking towards the window and opening it fully to let some fresh air into the stale old library. After a minute of leaning out the window, I noticed a boy advancing on a brown haired girl below. Probably some couples fight, I thought carelessly.

"Help!"

The girls screamed seemed to send an electric shot through Saito's body; he kept from his seat, shoving me from the window and staring down in horror, "Chizuru!" He yelled, taking off out of the library and down the stairs. Oh yeah I remember her. I thought back to the time I nearly killed Saito for Harada giving me detention. Well any friend of Saito's is a friend of mine right?

Taking a few steps back, I burst into a run and launched myself out the second floor window; flipping round, I landed in a crouched pose behind the black haired boy threatening Chizuru.
"Bro I can see you're desperate but this is just sad. " I smirked at the kid who glared at me.

"This is none of your business idiot." The boy sneered and made a grab for Chizuru who screamed.

Snatching his wrist quickly, I squeezed it until he couldn't move his fingers, "You just made it my business." I said chuckling. "O-Okita-San!" Chizuru sighed in relief. "Sup Chizuru-chan." I winked at her and the boy yelped as I flexed my fingers.

"OK! OK! I'm sorry! I'm sorry Chizuru! I just wanted you to notice me!" The boy whimpered and ripped to his knees. Suddenly, the front doors of the school burst open, Saito and Heisuke sprinting towards us, shouting frantically, "Chizuru! Are you- Okita?" Heisuke stopped dead beside Saito.

"Took you long enough Hajime-Kun." I smirked to Saito who blushed slightly. "How'd you get down here so fast?" He questioned me and Chizuru jumped in.
"Hey jumped out that window!"

"Please let go of my wrist!"

We all turned out heads to the kid I was still holding, Heisuke inflated his skinny chest stepping up to the boy, "What the hell do you think you're doing jackass?! Picking on a girl!" He grabbed him by the collar. "Heisuke-Kun." I cautioned him. He looked at me confused but let the kid go.

Laying my hands on his shoulders, I smoothed the creases, smirking at him, "You're not gonna near Chizuru again now are you?" I asked calmly and he nodded his head, "No sir!" I raised an eyebrow, "So you are?" I said and he struggled desperately, shaking his head furiously, "N-no sir! I promise I won't! I'm sorry Chizuru! I'm really really sorry!" The kids eyes welled with tears, so I let go letting my arms fall to my sides.

"Bye now."

The kid ran like lightening towards the school gates, Heisuke howled with laughter, Chizuru breathed a sigh of relief and Saito glared at me. Rolling my eyes I grabbed his arm, dragging him back towards the school door. "What now? I helped your friend, you should be proud." I grinned and he hit me round the head.

"Baka! You jumped out a window?! Are you crazy?! You could have died Souji!" He yelled at me. "I've had enough of your shouting at me!" I yelled back.

"I'm trying my best! I'm doing everything I can without changing who I am Hajime! Being reckless is what I do! But I knew what I was doing, I've trained for flips and jumping off high places! I know how to land I don't just leap out of a fucking building if I know I'd fucking die! I'm not an idiot!"

Without realising, I'd pushed him against the wall and was shouting in his face, "I.....I...Im sorry....." I backed up, Jesus Christ I always do this! My fucking anger just blinds me and I don't even realise what I'm doing until I'm done...Damn it Souji stop being an idiot!

He lightly placed a hand on my shoulder, "I know you're trying, in fact I know you're tying exceptionally hard with your studies and behaviour." He dropped his hand, "It just worried me, you taking that huge risk." He turned his head, his cheeks slightly pink.
"I just don't want you to get hurt."

"So you do care." I said and he blinked at me, "Good to know, if you don't want me to get hurt." I leaned into him, "Then don't pull away." I kissed him and he didn't pull away. Opening one eye I saw his were closed, taking this as an okay, I lifted his arms around my neck.

His fingers went into my hair, and he responded slightly. My heart was beating out of my chest, he's kissing me back!

Saito POV.

I'm kissing him back! This is so wrong but why doesn't it feel it?

His lips curled into a smirk, my face heated up and I was determined to not let him see me blush again. Trying to calm my heart- was impossible; but trying to clam my face wasn't too difficult. His tongue poked at my lips and I pulled away, squeezing my eyes shut and turning my head to the side.

"We should go back to those equations." He said nonchalantly, turning towards the stair case but I didn't miss the smile on his face.

How the hell am I supposed to focus on final velocity - initial velocity over time taken, now?

Hajime is such an adorable little nerd! I freaking love these two! AHHH it's so cute! KYA! I love love love love love this book!
