Fate Is Crazy, Just Like Love

Chapter 14. "M"

After a few forced rounds of karaoke and  sipping of our beverages, Gurin and I parted from the group. " That was fun wasn't it?" She said stretching. I tossed my head to the side. " it was something to do I suppose, " I replied. She smiled. " aw just admit you had fun, yan-chan! " She added while nudging my shoulder. " Whatever floats your boat," I replied. She  clasped her hands. " Awe you're implying that you had a good time~ I'm touched," she said enthusiastically. I rolled my eyes.

She then took the time to describe in great detail about the cafe, the staff, her favorite videogame, other shops, basically anything that came to mind she began to express her opinions on them more and more. I silently nodded along. Not like I had anything to really add anyway. Her words blur the passing minutes.

" Okay but now I am even more serious than before! Do you think Amai looked at Taro weird? " She asked. I turned my head  to her. " What do you mean?" I asked. She gripped the sides of her arms. "I don't know. Like, she took one look at him and this light just flashed over her eyes?? And she like stalked him with her eyes while he was leaving??? " she asked very worried. I paused and thought about it. " she seemed fine to me, why?" I replied. She looked away frowning. "I kinda find it odd how-WWAH!" She began before running into the school's gate. "Ow," she lightly moaned.

I stopped and looked up to face the looming walls of the school. It gave off a unwelcoming spirit in the fading light. " So how do you-well we get in?" I asked. Gurin recomposed herself. " Nothing to fear yan-chan! " She cheered. She walked over to a wall covered in brush. Well nearly brush, as she then tapped a fake part of shrubbery and a blue screen appeared. She typed the school's access code and tapped the top side to turn it off. The gates slowly rolled out of our path, bellowing in harsh tones. Gurin turned to me. " Come on let's go! " she stated and happily prance inside.

I stared at the looming dark bars in front of me. Gurin turned around a few meters away from me. " Don't be afraid! It's three hundred percent safe here!" She called to me. Scared? I'm not scared. I just forgot to walk with her. " I'm coming, " I reply back to her and began to walk up to the school building.

" Okay! So: I'm gonna go bust inside the computer lab and grab gema's laptop. He really needs to stop leaving it in there, so clumsy! And after that I'm gonna go up to the roof and write a couple emails to Yandere dev! " she started to explain. She turned to me abruptly and began walking backwards, " It's kinda a habit of mine since we don't have WiFi at home for longer than an hour when I get home! So I guess we meet up there, after you find your female necessities!" I gave her a confused glare.  " How did you complete your paper if you don't have access to the internet for long?" I asked. She flipped her green hair, " I am the most  fastest typeset in the third year! " She boasted. I raised an eyebrow. " I guess that explains why it looked rushed," I remarked. She pouted. " Awe come on! I made corrections! Not everybody is perfECT-" she started to explain as she walked back into the locked doors.

" I see your point," I tried to joke. Gurin rubbed the back of her head. "Glad I could reason with you yan-chan, " she replied in a joking fashion and a closed eyes smile. I look behind her hair at the glass doors to the locker room. " How do we get past this part? " I asked. She stood up straight. " There's a key in a rock near a tree around here somewhere... I just gotta remember which tree," she explained. I sighed with an annoyed tone.

" This school has several trees. How are you-" She threw her arms up. " I know! It makes zero sense-o!!! It's designed to be physically impossible so only the staff and Megami know where it is! " she shook her head with a displeased look. But then she glanced over to me with a small smirk smearing over her face." But I never said we are  going in through the front. " She began to walk away from the door. " This way! follow me!" She said motioning to her while running. I grunted a followed suite.
