DoD in Highschool (English)

Chapter 7- Tuesday

Yuki and Hiko had headed back to their classroom for the two following German lessons. Their classroom was a nice one on the 5th and last floor with trees and flowers painted on the walls. However, it was nasty to walk the approximately ten thousand stairs up to there. A little bit out of breath, Yuki sat down on her seat in the third row on the window-side. Hiko followed her. "Hey, Yuki." Mei Yamara, the girl sitting behind Hiko in the last row, waved at her. "I still think it's funny we have "Asano" and "Amano" in our class, sitting right next to each other." Arubaro Asano, who was sitting in front of Yuki, turned around. "Hey, that's not my fault! It's just coincidence!" Fuyumi Obata, the girl sitting next to Mei and the leader of the Dance Club, looked up. "Why do you feel offended right away, little one?" Yuki smiled. "Ha! Finally, I got rid of being called "little"!", "Yeah, maybe, but you're still tinier than me." Mei commented calmly, putting her pen on the table. "But I am taller than Aru!", "These few centimeters!" Arubaro protested. "Ten, to be exact." Yuuso Amano, the guy next to him, corrected. "Ouch, that nearly hurt!" Aru said and Yuuso shrugged with his shoulders. "You're welcome." Aki, the tallest guy from the class came to them from the front row. "What are you arguing about?", "Aru complains about his height." Mei informed him with an innocent face. "Ah. Just as always.", "SHUT UP, YOU SKYLANDER'S GIANT!!!!" Aru yelled at Aki. Aki, Mei and Yuuso nearly died from laughing. "Why are you blaming Aki in the first place?" Hiko asked Aru as uninvolved as possible. "Wasn't Fuyumi the one who started?", "PSSSSST, HIKO!!!" Fuyumi hissed. "The funny thing is...", Yuki placed her German folder on the table while she was speaking, "...Aru is even tinier than Fuyumi and that's something truly rare.", "SHUT UP!!!" Fuyumi and Arubaro yelled synchronous. Tsuki Takuya, Aki's neighbor, came to join them now too. "What are you yelling about?", "Nothing important." Fuyumi grumbled. "Poor Fuyu-chan." Yuki grinned evilly as she raised her hand and leaned back to pat her. "You got three seconds to take your hand away or else I'll break your wrist!!!" Fuyumi threatened. Hiko turned around and joined in with patting while she was quietly giggling. "I fucking hate you!!" Fuyumi growled. "Let's all pat Fuyu-chan!" Mei proposed. "GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!!!" Fuyumi stood up and ran away to the other end of the classroom. Everyone started laughing. "Teasing Fuyumi is so easy." Mei said. Yuuso nodded. "Yeah. But we need to find another victim next time or it's going to be boring.", "Any ideas?", "Hmm..." Yuuso looked at Aru. He noticed it and narrowed his eyes. "Forget it right away, idiot!" he hissed. Yuuso grinned. "Hah... sorry, but how did you come to the idea I am aiming at you just because I look at you? I maybe didn't even think of taking you next. Maybe, I'm thinking of taking Takeo and I am just looking at you for no reason.", "Yeah, right, Yuuso. Is there any reason I do not believe you that?" Aru replied. "I don't know. I am no mind reader." Yuuso folded his arms in amusement. Yuki opened her bag again and took out the manga she had taken with her. "The lesson starts in five minutes. I'm gonna make use of that time." She started reading, however, she didn't come all too far. Yuuso suddenly tore the manga out of her hand. "What 'cha readin'?", "Hey! Give it back!!!" Yuki yelled. Yuuso looked at the pages and then turned around. "Fairy Tail, huh? Hey, Aki! Wanna read a Fairy Tail manga?" Aki turned around to him. "Did someone just say Fairy Tail?", "Yeah, I did, you big moron." Yuuso answered. Aki suddenly stood in front of him and snatched the manga out of his hands. "Huh... this is Avatar Arc, right? You're reading it because the anime isn't that far yet, I guess?", "Yeah. And now, hand it over again.", "Huh..." Aki started reading the manga. "HEY!! ARE YOU DEAF OR SOMETHING? I JUST ORDERED YOU TO DO SOMETHING, BONE HEAD!!!", "Hm?" Aki looked up. "What did you say?", "I said: 'GIVE. THE. MANGA. BACK. IMMEDIATELY.'!!" Yuki repeated herself, close to losing her patience. "Okay, try to reach it." Aki held the book into the air. "I'M GONNA KILL YOU!!!" Yuki jumped up from her chair and wanted to go off to Aki with raised fists, but Hiko held her back by wrapping her arms around Yuki's. "Calm down, silly. Aki is just arguing you.", "Wow, bright spark, I didn't have that idea yet! Do you think I'm stupid or something?! I just don't understand any fun if it's about my precious Fairy Tail stuff!" Hiko sighed. "He will give it back to you anyway, so stop it already." She let go of her and looked at Aki. "Aki, give the manga back. You can surely borrow it from Yuki someday, just don't forget to ask her before you do." Aki closed the manga. "... Okay, Hiko." He held the manga out to her. Hiko took it and put it down in front of Yuki. "There you go." Yuki grumbled something. "Thanks."

In the second break, Satan went to the cafeteria to buy some cookies when Keiko crossed his way. "Hey, Raiden!" he shouted. "Wanna join in to a football game?" Satan kept quiet. "Hey! Black-haired lazy bonehead! I asked you whether-" Satan interrupted him harshly. "You don't need to repeat yourself. I ignored you just fine the first time." With these words, he disappeared into the cafeteria before he went to the tree trunk at the fence where Yuki, Hiko and Lucy were waiting for him. "You look pissed." Hiko said. "Yeah, just encountered Keiko on my way to the cafeteria." Satan bit in his cookie. "And he's already getting on my nerves.", "Oh." Hiko nodded. Lucy leaned against the fence with his eyes closed. "We're having Psychology next lesson." he explained. "I don't know what that subject's like but I think it's gonna be interesting. "You have Psychology as a regular subject?" Yuki asked. Lucy nodded. "Yeah.", "No fair! I wanna have it too!" she complained. "You will. Arata told me that it becomes a regular subject in Highschool, together with Informatics. For that, you lose either Art or Music, you can choose one option of both, and one lesson of French.", "That sounds awesome." Yuki said. "Eh... Kaito? Don't look to the school garden." Satan suddenly whispered to him. "Why?" Lucifer raised his head and his look fell on the fence that separated the school garden from the rest of the school yard. The school garden was a big area with high grass, hundreds of flowers and cherry trees and a spring. Only highschoolers were allowed to enter. And at that fence, he discovered Kagami Misaki, the girl with the purple-dyed hair. She was staring at the devil with a dreamy look. "... Is anything wrong with her? She looks like she's day dreaming." Lucifer commented. "Yeah, I guess she is day dreaming about a guy with messy black hair and scars in his face." Satan joked. Lucifer threw a destructive glare in his direction. "Shut up, Raiden." Then, he again looked at Kagami. When she noticed it, she blushed and waved at him. "Uhm... Hey, Kaito!", "Hi." Lucifer greeted back. "You need something?", "What? No, I'm fine... hihihi." She turned around and went to the girls group at the spring. Lucifer looked back at her with a 'what the hell is wrong with her'-expression on his face. Now, he even had stalkers? Talk about a bother. "Did you hear that giggling?" Satan asked. "Yeah. I am not deaf, y'know." Lucifer answered. "That one sounded suspicious." Satan meant. Yuki nodded. "Suuuus! I vote purple!", "Suspicious?" Lucifer loosed up his arms. "Why?", "Jeez, man, never seen a teenage girl having a crush?" Satan asked. "I can't remember. No." Lucy coldly responded. "Never read a book about it?", "I hate romance." Lucy said. Satan rolled with his eyes. "Are you freaking kidding me...", "You can't avoid romance in a book nowadays." Hiko reminded him. "I know. Let me rephrase my sentence from before: I hate trashy romance.", "Does that mean you think Kagami is trashy?" Satan asked. "I don't wanna know and I don't wanna find out." Lucifer replied. Satan looked back toward the school garden and his expression became a little grimmer. "Just keep your paws off my brother," he grumbled into his non-existent beard.
"What?" Lucifer lifted his chin.
"N-nothing! Nothing... All good..." He put on a carefree smile.
