Caught You | Ayano x Budo

》ＡＣＴ ＥＬＥＶＥＮ《

-START-

  "Hey Aishi, I need to talk to you." It was after class and students flooded the hallways with chatter. Budo raced up to Ayano before she could get away.
Aishi? Ayano raised an eyebrow, he's still calling me that. Glancing the class, there were people staring at them. "Alright, Masuta-kun." Ayano didn't wince, instead she wore a normal smile.
Together they crampled inside the empty art classroom, Budo unfolded his arms. "A-...." 
"STOP." Ayano didn't shout, but the statement was as powerful as a shout. "Stop calling me Aishi."
"I wasn't going to call you that, Ayano."
Hearing her name by Budo, it was as if she was hearing her own name for the first time, she turned back so Budo wouldn't see her slightly blushing cheeks. "You know trying to make me happy wouldn't make me forget what you did."
"Yes, I am sorry for blacking you out..."
"It's not that! It's..." Ayano clutched her skirt in her fists, creating wrinkles. "You were covering for her, weren't you."
"Ayano, listen to me." Budo stepped up to her and smoothed her hands from her back, his breath was in her ears. "I can't let you go around and kill people,it's going to get you into great trouble."
"I don't care..."
"But I care."
".......Budo, this isn't some caring caring thing we are talking about here. It's much more serious." Ayano took a step away, her ears burning red. "I have to do this for my sake and..."
"For Taro?"
"No...It's...For you..." Ayano hesitated, and finished her sentence.  

  Budo's eyes widened,but Ayano never noticed. She ran away as soon as she said that,her hair fluttering with the wind created by the momentum of her speed. She ran and ran all the way out to the courtyard,students staring at her with looks of surprise and curiosity. 
She stopped in her tracks,bending down and putting her hands on her knees in exasperation. She looked up,and seeing no one,she walked towards the fountain. 
Grabbing a hand cup full of water,she splashed her face to quickly wake herself up. Feeling much better,she turned around once again and sat down. 
"Hey..are you alright?" A curious,shy voice rung in Ayano's ears. 
She looked up slowly. Her eyes widened slightly,seeing the person she had feelings for. A drop of sweat dribbled down her face as she saw him closer.
Taro Yamada. Her Senpai.
