Denial and Betrayal - Fushimi Saruhiko x OC

Chapter 5

"The blimp!" I yelled, pointing up at the sky.

"It's farther away than predicted. And it's altitude is high..." Saruhiko said, looking up as well.

"Yata, what's the blimp's current location?" I asked.

"Um... somewhere here I think." He said, pointing somewhere on the map.

"How the 32 digits were divided into parts was not wrong, however, these digits arent the only hints provided..."
"They hid something intentionally, so that you had to decode it."

"ARE YOU SAYING THAT AYA MADE A MISTAKE!?"

"A code... maybe breaking down the prime numbers?" I suggested.
"But can an amateur figure out that much?"

"It's probably something simpler, something like a puzzle..." He mumbled.

"Reorganizing every line, if I change everything using this rule and plot them..." He said as he typed out something.

"Amazing! You did it Fushimi!" Yata exclaimed as a new line appeared on the map.

"No... one more set of coordinates has appeared, if I converse it with this rule then there is still something hidden."

"Th-This is...!?" Yata and I exclaimed in shock as the shape of a smily face appeared on the screen as Saruhiko finished inputting the rest of the coordinates.

"...They're making fun of us." Saruhiko cursed.
"The person who made this has a twisted personality."

"...You say that like your personality isn't twisted..." I snickered.

"...You're the one who likes annoying people and watching them in pain." He retorted.

"..."

"The blimp won't come, and from here it's too far away, we won't make it."

"What are you saying?"
"Let's go after the blimp!" Yata jumped up.
"I mean we can see it now right?"
"We can't just leave now!"
"We can still catch it!"

"The blimp is too far away." I pointed out.

"Nope, we'll make it."

"And what are you basing that on?" Saruhiko questioned.

"Of course, my intuition!"

"Hirasaka building, alright let's go there!" He looked at he map and ran off.

"Intuition huh..." I thought, smiling as I followed behind Yata, along with Aya and Saruhiko.

"Hurry, if we take the bike we can catch it..."

"With bike do you mean this..." I trailed off as I saw the group that surrounded the bike.

"Y-You guys...!"
"You're the delinquents!" Recalling the events that happened a few weeks ago.

"You still haven't given us the money Fushimi-kun." Said one of the third-years.

"Eighty thousand. We need it, no matter what."

"Don't have it."

"Then of course you'll go straight home and pick it up for us right?"

"We're in a real pinch here, we wanted to earn points through Jungle's mission, but seems like the blimp won't come here right?" The third-year sneered.

"It's impossible, no matter how you look at it, we like, won't make it." Aya stated.

"Now, or never..." Yata thought, targeting the guy by his bike and bumped the guy off before quickly jumping up on.

"Fushimi, Oogai, Hanayori, get on!" He yelled.

"That can't fit the three of us!" I exclaimed, spotting that the group of third-years brought a bike as well. Gathering up my strength, I quickly kicked the guy on the bike in the gut, grabbed the bike and jumped on with Saruhiko as the guy fell off.

"Yes! We made it!" I cheered as we pedaled towards the blimp.

"Fuck, WE'LL REMEMBER THIS!" The delinquents exploded behind us.

"The blimp will pass by real soon!" Aya yelled.
"We won't make it!"

"Let's take a shortcut!"
"Hold on properly!" He instructed as he rounded a corner, into an alleyway as I did the same.

"...Don't you think you look stupid?"

"Why? I don't think so." He answered.
"I like doing stuff with somebody else."
"Getting angry too, laughing about silly things too, because having friends is intersting, right?"

Even, though I might be a bit too pushy.
I didn't consider people's feelings and pushed towards what was "fun" to me.
I didn't realize I had been shunned behind my back.

Maybe I can't read a situation, maybe I had been laughed at behind my back...

I'm a bit scared as I search for Fushimi's reaction, he might be totally insensitive, but for me, Fushimi is somebody I want to be close to.

Why?
Because I don't want to be hated by anybody?
-It's not like that.

It's because I think it's amazing how smart Fushimi is.
Because I feel so excited my body trembles.
Because I want to see him laugh.
Because I want to do more interesting things together with him.
Because I want to laugh together with him.

Hanayori too!
She seems lonely except for Fushimi.
I want to see her laugh and cry with the 2 of us together.
I want all three of us to have fun together.

Maybe I'd be stupid if I was alone, but I'm not alone.

I'm going to catch the blimp with someone together.
We're riding out bikes with all our strength to flee from bad guys.

Isn't that, an exciting adventure?

"We arrived!"
"The stairs are in the back, hurry..."

"It's useless, we won't make it."

"What are you saying it's right in front of us-" A loud engine sound and bright lights cut him off as the blimp passed by us, and we all looked up at it.

"Ah, ah, looks like we couldn't make it after all, Misaki-kun had been wrong." Aya chided.

"Haaaa... Sorry, even though I thought we could make it."
"Sorry, Fushimi, Hanayori, I had gotten excited all by myself..."
"Fushimi?"

"If we... Had gotten on it."
"Would something had changed?" I heard him say as we turned to look at him staring up at where the blimp had been, and now it's a tiny light, fading as it travels further and further away.

"...Right, maybe it would have brought us, to a far away different world." I whispered.

"That blimp's destination is definitely there."
"A world, different from this tiny world."
"With an amazing power."
"A huge world, impossible to imagine."

"If such a world would really exist..."

"Well, we can go chasing it again!" Yata smiled.

"Let's go home." I say.

"Maybe we can go there one day!" I thought happily as I skipped down the streets with the others, chewing some gum and heading back to home.
