This is my second fic, still MaeIso. Just know this is for matured people only~ don't like don't read~ ^^ enjoy my sweeties~

Isogai's POV

It has been at least a week since Maehara has stopped going to school.. I was starting to worry. I tried asking everyone else but all they said was a shrug and a few snickers here and there, especially from Karma and Rio.. I know those looks they give. It means they're going to pull another one of their ever-so-amazing pranks. But nevertheless, I'll just go there later after class.. I even made a bit of extra tonkatsu in my bento today in case he was here.

The hours passed quickly, I still don't know what would make Hiroto suddenly skip out on school. Was it something I did or said? My feet just moved on their own like a GPS tracker while I was deep in thought, I was walking towards his house. I knocked gently at first.

No response.

Hmm.. weird. I just tried again, a bit louder and calling out his name.

"Hiroto? You in there?"

Still no response. I groaned inwardly and took out a spare key he gave me back then and went in anyway.

It was quiet.. eerily quiet. There were also a few scratch marks on the wallpaper. The moment I saw them, the worst case scenario already came to my mind. Could he have been kidnapped?! Or someone broke in here? I went upstairs towards him room and gripped the doorknob which, surprisingly, wasn't locked. I peeked in slowly, looking around. Everything was a mess. Things were thrown around, every piece of paper or cloth was either crumpled or ripped. Who could've done this?

Maehara isn't the type to be violent. My eyes landed on the still messed up bed. There was a lump covered in a blanket. I instinctively reached out for it, it moved a bit, I felt fear wash over me but I gathered up more courage.

"M.. Maehara? What's going on here? Are you okay?"

I heard a low growl under the blanket and it shifted.

"Go away Yuuma.."

Huh? I was shocked at the rather menacing tone.

"Did I do something? If I did then I'm sorry for whatever it is.."

"No.. just.. go away. You didn't do anything.. I just can't see you right now."

I felt tears well up in the corners of my eyes and I went closer, slightly patting his back from the blankets, I tried to pull it off as well but he wouldn't budge.

"Why?! Can't you at least tell me?!"

"I'm doing this for your own sake Yuuma."

Unable to hold in my anger, I held the fabric and tossed it off him. I heard him growl again. He was curled into a ball and looked like he was in pain. I quickly hugged him and shook him lightly.

"What's wrong? Do you hurt anywhere?"

I asked worriedly, I saw there were... rather strange ears on the top of his head, the same color as his hair, and there was a tail as well. He was.. like a cat. He was shaking lightly as well.

"Hiroto.. look at me.."

I cupped his cheeks and made him look at me. He opened his eyes and growled ferally at me.

"Yuuma. This is the last chance. Go away now."

"I refuse to leave you like this! You look like you're hurting real bad too!"

In a glimpse, he pounced on me, pinning me down his bed. I gasped and looked at him, he was like an animal staring down its prey. His hands gripping both my hands and pinning them above my head.
