The Lonely Demon Who Found Friends (Boy X Boy)

Chapter 08

"Hey you!" called out Chebito.

Akito turned his attention at the tall boy before him.

"What?" he replied in a prideful tone.

"Are you and Hanamoto-san... really going out?" asked Chebito reluctantly.

"Ha?! What the hell... pfft.." Akito started laughing instantaneously along with the rest of the crowd.

Chebito stared at them oblivious as to why they were laughing at such a serious question. Just then, a girl from the crowd spoke up.

"You... don't you know Akito-senpai at all? He's this school's idol!"

"We're only supposed to admire him, he's our precious senpai!" said another girl.

"Also nicknamed as Mr. Perfect, it'll be taboo if anyone was going out with him!" said another.

Chebito stared at the girls in disbelief. He couldn't comprehend what he was hearing.

Girls... I'll never understand them...! Thought Chebito still dumbstruck from what he just heard.

"Just what exactly... do you girls see in this shortass?" said Chebito hastily.

He realized that his statement had had a huge impact for the entire crowd along with all the passers-by were frozen still, eyes and jaws wide open in shock.

"What... did you just call me?" stuttered Akito.

The word "shortass" seemed to have had a lot of impact, especially on Akito himself.

"Huh? I just called you what you are, shortass" said Chebito, feeling his anger overflowing.

"Heh, well two can play at that! You sorry excuse for a palm tree!" countered Akito.

"What did you say pip squeak?!"

"What was that you oversized giraffe?!"

The two grabbed each other by the collars of their uniforms, ready for a fight. Just as they were getting heated up they were pulled apart by non other than Gakuto.

"Alright that's enough you two!" he said pushing the two in opposite directions.

"Huh? Who are you four-eyes?" asked Akito, his annoyance spilling from his tone.

Gakuto twitched an eye when he heard the term "four-eyes", but managed to control his anger.

"I'm the class representative of class 1-B, Gakuto Murakami" he replied in exasperation.

"Ah! You're the guy that acts like Tobi-kun's mother!" exclaimed Chebito as he recognized Gakuto from their last encounter.

"Shut up!" yelled Gakuto in irritation.

"'Tobi-kun'?" repeated Akito.

"I've heard that name somewhere... wait... Tobi... Kaneko?" he asked.

"Yeah! That's right! What's it to you?" said Chebito.

"Isn't he... that rumored 'demon boy'?" asked Akito doubtfully.

"Yeah, what about Tobi-kun? Don't you dare badmouth him!" warned Chebito.

"Woah! you seem to be on good terms with him" said Akito cynically.

"That's right! He's my best friend so you better stay away from him!" claimed Chebito.

This struck the whole crowd, including Tobi himself who was watching this whole scenario.

This IDIOT! Thought Tobi as he gritted his teeth in agitation. He needed to get Chebito out of there that instant and give him a good, hard lecture. Just then Gakuto, grabbed hold of Chebito's arm and dragged him towards Tobi.
