Two days later
Few minutes before the party
Joseph's POV

We all wanted to meet up before we entered. So we all decided to meet up in the cafeteria since the teachers decided to do the party in the gym. I was getting my backpack from my locker when I saw Eruin. Eruin, as I thought he would, dressed up like Sans from Undertale. "Hey Joseph, nice costume," said Eruin. I looked like Jeff the Killer. "Eh, not really. Though yours looks really neat," I said. He smiled. "Well I'm gonna head to the gym now. Te veo en la fiesta," he said, giving a sans like grin and heading out with a, ketchup in his hand? Wow. He's really getting into character. Anyway, I got to the Cafeteria and saw everyone there in their costumes. Annaliz as Rin Tosaka, Alexia as Yuno, and Daniel as Mikoto.

"Wow, you guys look great," I said. "Yeah, especially Daniel," said Alexia. We all look at her. "Fuck. Did I say that out loud?" She said, blushing in embarrassment. Daniel smiled. "Don't worry beautiful, you look quite nice in that costume," he said, putting his hand on her hip, his other hand on her shoulder, and giving her a kiss on her cheek. She starts turning more red. "Um, let's get out of here before they get touchy," said Annaliz. "Good idea," I said.

We entered the gym and to our surprise, a large amount of people actually came. We didn't expect this many people. "Whoa. That's, a lot of people," I said. "You got that right. Anyway, if you'll excuse us, I need to show something to Alexia," said Daniel grabbing hold of Alexia and heading off. I look at Annaliz. "Looks like it's just the two of us," said Annaliz. "Yeah, seems like it," I said letting out a soft chuckle. "Hey Annaliz, would you like to dance?" I asked her. She smiled. "Sure," she said holding my hand and taking us to the dance floor.

The DJ had just started playing a slow dance, just to set the mood. I hold onto of her hand and then her hip, while she put one hand on my shoulder and smiled. We followed each other's footsteps. I haven't danced like this with her since middle school. Just as the song was about to finish, I made her twirl and then trapped her in my arms. After that we looked at each other's eyes and smiled. "Hey um, would you like a drink?" I asked her. "That would be nice," she said. I nodded and went to get some drinks. I got us some fruit punch, when Eruin came towards me. "Hey dude," said Eruin. "Hey man," I said. "Dude, they really went all out with the decorations," he said. "Yeah, I know right. It's pretty cool," I said. "Yeah- huh? Joseph, why is your watch lighting up?" Asked Eruin. I look at my watch, and he was right. It was lighting up, not to mention beeping. That's when I started hearing a familiar yet quite annoying voice. "Damn it. Hey Eruin, can you hold this?" I said giving him the drinks. "Thanks," I said running towards Annaliz.

I got over towards the voice and saw it was Mike, who was dressed as a zombie jock, putting his hands on Annaliz's shoulder and on her hips. I noticed his movement's were wobbly, as if he was learning to walk. And the faint red coloring of his cheeks under his face paint became more visible as I came closer. That's when a thought came to mind. Don't tell me he's drunk. But that didn't seem to matter at the moment. All that mattered to me was how Annaliz was reacting. And I could tell Anna wasn't enjoying it. I walk towards him, frowning. "Mike!" I yelled. He looks at me and grins. "Well hey there. We were just talking about you," he said. She had an annoyed yet uncomfortable expression on her face. "Let her go, or else," I said getting more and more angry. "Or else what?" He said. "Let go of me," said Annaliz trying to resist. "Oh no you don't. Your boyfriend here caught my interest. What are you gonna do twerp," he said, putting his hands way closer than I want them to be. Annaliz softly whimpered as she tried away. I make a fist and look down, and started twitching.

"Mike"

He looks at me. "You've finally done it. You've finally made me lose my patience. And as of now........" I said give a slight manic-like chuckle. "It's time for you to Go. To. Sleep.," I said, looking at him with malice.

He takes a step back and then frowns, feeling a sweat drop from his head

He takes a step back and then frowns, feeling a sweat drop from his head. "A- Alright then, let's see what you got asshole!" he said letting go of Annaliz and running at me. I just look at him blankly and waited. Just as he was about to punch me, I quickly dodged, turned towards his back and hit him in the back of the head with my elbow. He turned towards me and that's when I kicked him in the face. He falls to the floor, hard, and holds his head. "Get up. I thought you said you were interested," I said, grabbing the front of his shirt and raising his body without trying. I look at his cold, scared eyes and then look at everyone. I hesitated and looked at him again. I frown and threw him at the benches, making it bend a little. "I'm giving you another chance. And I suggest you take it," I said before taking a few steps and collapsing in one knee, and taking deep breaths. Annaliz came towards me and grabbed ahold of me.

"Wh-What happened?" I said. "You lost control again," she said. I look at her and sighed. "Again. Damn it," I said getting back up. Whenever I lose control of my emotions, especially the negative ones, I get aggressive, which ends up with me tapping into my dark matter. It can be dangerous not just to others but to myself. That's when Annaliz then hugs me. "I'm just glad you stopped when you did," she said. "Yeah, I guess I need to learn control myself. Speaking of which, where is Alexia and and Daniel?" I said. "I'm not sure. But I have a bad feeling. Come on, I think I know where they are," she said walking off. I look at Mike, then took off towards Annaliz.

We got to the janitor's closet. We started hearing noise and moving around the room. So we were guessing that that's them. I put my hand on the door knob and turned it. And  and lo and behold there they were, making out like it was the end of the world. Daniel was shirtless and covered with lipstick marks on his face and a love bite on his neck, while Alexia was on top of Daniel, without her shirt, revealing her bra. "Ehm," said Annaliz, trying to get their attention. I looked away as they look at us, with Alexia quickly covering herself. "Uhh, hey guys, didn't see you there," said Daniel, giving his jacket to Alexia. I face palm at his comment. "We've seriously gotta keep an eye on them from now on," I said. "Agreed."
