I played with Aki-chan's hair while we're sitting on the back of the car. We're currently on our way to Group A Site. I checked on the bus tailing us with the other Group A students on board.
Knowing who our instructor, I have a bad feeling about this group.I can only sigh.

"Not feeling well?" Aki-chan asked me.

"Nah. I'm just feeling uneasy." I mumbled letting go of his hair.

"That's new. You're always so confident." He flicked my forehead.

"Ouch." I pouted. "It's not that, it's just our group. I can sense something is about to happen."

"You shouldn't be worrying yourself. Remember, you're Akashi Kurumi. You can do anything." He ruffled my head.

"Yeah yeah. Whatever Aki-chan. Thanks for going with me by the way." I didn't bother to fix my hair anymore. I'm still chagrined about what happened a while ago. I brought out my phone and texted Isshicchi.

"Aki-chan. Why is your hair so soft?" I mumbled while typing. He just chuckled in response.

*******
To: Isshicchi

We're going to start soon. I miss you Isshicchi. :)

I clicked send and put it in my bag. I rested my head against Aki-chan's shoulder and closed my eyes for a bit.

"I'm just glad you're here with me."

"Me too, Kuro-chan. Me too."
**************

After Peter dropped us off, we went inside and found our venue still empty. I excused myself for a bit to change in my chef uniform leaving him in the room. I strolled through the hallway looking for the female comfort room nad finally found it.
I took the nearest cubicle and changed.
I already hear footsteps signaling that they are already here. When I was done, I went to check myself in the mirror. I put my hair in to a ponytail and smoothen the creases in my skirt. I noted myself to change my skirt to a pants which is more convenient.
I walked outside and went straight to our room. I noticed Aki-chan isn't here, maybe he also went to change. Suddenly, a white-haired girl just glomped me, due to my skirt, I staggered backwards. I expected to fall on the floor when a firm and warm hands grabbed my waist from the back.
"Be careful." The person said.

"Wahh. Kurumi! We're on the same group!" The girl exclaimed happily as she removed herself from me while the hands on my waist remained there.

"Alice! I almost fell!" I scold the girl flicking her forehead.

"Oww. But Ryo was there to catch you, you know what I mean." She wiggle her eyebrows." But still! I'm glad you're here!" She said cheerfully.

"Uhm yeah, me too, Alice." I sweatdropped as the arm around me tightened. I pat Ryo's hand. "I'm glad you're here too, Ryo."

"I'll leave you guys alone for a sec. I'll talk to you after the class, Kurumi." Alice said while she winked at me strutting towards her station. Geez, this girl. I see the other students staring at us.

Slowly, Ryo removed his arms, I turned around to face him. His black hair is still messy as ever, you expect it to be rough but surprisingly, it's soft. What is up with boys having softer hair than girls?
I was about tiptoe to touch his hair when he lowered his head, I chuckled as I ruffled his hair.
"So soft, Ryo."

A small smiled danced around his lips.
He put his hands around me once again and hugged me, burying his head on my neck, I hugged him back and chuckled at his gesture. He may look tough and all but he's still act like a little kid sometimes.

I think I just felt a shiver on my spine. Ryo removed himself from me and kissed my forehead. Then suddenly, I felt a presence behind me, I turned around and saw Aki-chan glaring at the black-haired guy earning us whispers and stares from the other people on the room.
Ryo's brows furrowed and glared back at Aki-chan.
I facepalmed myself as I shake my head, this is only one of the reasons I don't want to be in this group.

"Guys chill." I said to them while I signaled Alice to help me. She seems to be enjoying the view in front of me.

"Ryo, come on." She chirped dragging away Ryo from the other male.

"Come on Aki-chan. We're partners for today." I also dragged him to our station just beside Alice and Ryo's.

"I think I know what you mean, Kuro-chan." He said while frowning at Ryo.

Don't get me wrong, they're my childhood friends. Of course I care about them.

I snapped out of my thoughts when the door opened revealing a salmon-haired guy.
He noticed the two males glaring at each other then to me and scowled.

I groaned. Could this day gets any worst?
