Just You and Me~(Komahina)

Chapter 2~New Classmate...

My name is Nagito Komaeda. I've always been alone...I didn't have anything...family or friends..I had nothing but my inner thoughts. I never interacted with anybody or tried to be social...it scared me. I was always afraid to talk to others out of fear, because I thought they would hate me. When I see others chatting and having fun, it makes me wan't to join in. Sadly, it would be a bad idea...I just know I'll ruin everything and be hated. I was picked on a lot when I was little and usually would always come home crying myself to sleep...I never understood why I was picked on, maybe it's because of how I look or maybe the way I am...It got worse in middle school when everyone would refuse to socialize or talk to me. I ended up becoming invisible...like I didn't exist. Even in class the students would pretend I wasn't there, which made me depressed...

Even now...in high school l'm still invisible to everyone...well except some bully's that see me sometimes. No one ever tried to save me...or come to my rescue...no one really cared about me. I've heard of this one student who's known for defending others against bullies, but that student never defended me...It was probably because they don't know I exist...or it could be because the bullies always bully me where no one would see. Usually its always in an empty classroom or somewhere behind the school. They never tried to beat me up in public, which was weird, but it has always been that way for me...I don't know why they only do this to me...it's most likely because they know I'm weak and won't try to defy them. The only escape I have from them and everyone else...is this little room I found under the first floor stairs here at the school. No one knew this place existed, so it was the only way I could escape from everyone in this school...no one would see me or acknowledge my existence, though they never did anyways...no one even cared about me anyways so why not just stay invisible...

Eventually, there ended up being one person that actually talked to me. This person was named Chiaki, she ended up stumbling upon my room when she was trying to find a quiet place to play her games. I was afraid to talk to her, thinking she would be like everyone else and ignore me, but she didn't...she actually talked to me. She wasn't like anyone else at this school...she was kind, sweet, and actually enjoyed my presence. She became my only friend at this school, sometimes we would even play games together. I opened up some with her and told her everything I went through, which really upset her. She wants to help me so bad, but I keep her from doing so...I'm fine with just one person knowing I exist.

I sometimes wonder...what it would be like to have more friends...to be noticed and loved by everyone, but I know that would never happen to me...unless I somehow got lucky.

Nagito's POV:

I was sitting on one of the beanbag chairs in my little hidden room, doodling in my small sketch book. I sometimes stay the night here when I don't feel like being at home...my house is pretty big, but it's lonely when it's just one person living there...that's why I sometimes prefer staying in this room. Nobody ever comes by it anyways, not even janitors...so staying here is no problem. It's not too small or too big, it's a comfortable size for me and it can fit 3 or 4 people. If anyone else actually wanted to spend their free time with me like Chiaki, I brought some beanbag chairs from home along with some different kinds of games so Chiaki and I could play together. Thinking about her I stopped doodling. Chiaki...we've gotten close since I first met her, she's like...my new family. I don't know what I'd do if anything bad happened to her...I don't want to be alone again...I was snapped out of my thoughts when I heard a knock on the door. It wasn't just any knock, it was a knock code that Chiaki and I made up. We decided to make one incase anyone else stumbled upon the room...I got up and opened the door, greeted with a familiar sweet smile from the girl wearing a cute cat hoodie.

"G-Good morning Chiaki..~" I say, smiling a little

"Good morning~ Are you ready?" She asks calmly

My smile quickly disappeared, "I-I...no I'm not...I'm scared..." I look down some. How could I forget...I'm transferring into Chiakis class today...

Chiaki sighs and walks up to me, taking my hands, "It'll be alright Nagito...I'll be right by you...~ I won't let anything bad happen."

I look up at her, tearing up a little, "W-What if...everybody starts to hate you...b-because your my friend...? I-I don't want others to hate you..."

Chiaki smiles, "Even if they do start to hate me, I know a couple of people who would never feel that way towards me, so I'll be okay~"

I wipe my eyes, "O-Okay..." I say, feeling unsure. I start to think to myself some. She's mentioned a couple times about these two guys she's known for a long time...maybe I'll meet them, but they'll probably hate me...I shouldn't get my hopes up...

She lets go of my hands and walks back over to the door, "Let's go, we need to meet up with Ms. Yukizome before class." She says looking over her shoulder.

I slowly followed her, "R-Right..." I say, looking back down. She told me it would be a good idea for me to meet my new teacher before class...hopefully this teacher likes me more then the other did...

Chiaki noticed my nervousness and smiled, "After class we can eat lunch in here if you want...~"

I look up again, smiling some, "Y-Yes!!" I blush a bit when I realize I sounded too excited, making me  look away, "I-I mean...y-yea I would...I'm sorry..." I say, sounding embarrassed. I liked having lunch with her since having lunch in the cafeteria made me uncomfortable...I would get cold stares from everyone and it just made me not want to eat...

She giggles and ruffles my hair, "Don't be sorry, there's no reason for you to be~" She says as she opens the door. We looked around to make sure no one was nearby before we walked out, making sure the door was closed behind us. We walked up to a small office, where a woman with a bluish teal dress and white apron was waiting for us...she looks nice.

"Hello Ms. Yukizome, I brought Nagito~" she says as she casually walks in. I slowly followed her, feeling my nerves come back.

Chisa looked over at me, smiling warmly, "It's nice to meet you Mr. Komaeda, I'm excited to have you be a part of my class~" she says as she stands up, holding out her hand. I was surprised, she was kind like Chiaki. I shakily take her hand and shake it.

She notices how nervous I am, sighing a bit,"It'll be okay, I'll make sure you enjoy my class and don't feel left out~" she says with a reassuring smile as she puts her other hand on top of the one she was shaking, "I care about all of my students...even you~ I won't let anyone treat you bad~" I look at her in shock. She...she cares about me...? Chisa smiles and lets go of my hand, "Let's go ahead and head to class, I want you to meet everyone!"

"A-Alright..." I say as we walk out of her office and towards her classroom. I was still in shock...Does she actually care about me...? Am I not someone who deserves hatred...? I was snapped out of my thoughts once we got to the classroom. I felt my heart start to beat faster...I wanted to run away, but seeing Chiaki's and Ms. Yukizome's comforting smiles made me feel a bit better.

"You'll be okay Nagito, Ms. Yukizome said I can sit by you so you won't feel alone~" Chiaki says, trying to calm me down. I was surprised and looked at Ms. Yukizome with a thankful smile. "We will go ahead and walk inside, I'll let you know when to come into the classroom~" Chisa says with a smile. I nodded at her and watched as they both walked in, leaving me in the hall.

I could see her talking to the rest of the class, she sounded really excited to talk about me...I pulled up my hood and looked down, starting to feel uneasy. They're all gonna hate me...all of them will...I just know it. When I glance up, I notice Ms. Yukizome motioning me inside. I take a deep breath and walk in...keeping my eyes glued to the floor. I didn't want to look at anybody...once I got to her, she leaned in and wispered into my ear, "Take off your hood Mr. Komaeda...It will be okay, no need to worry...~" She says with a calming smile. I looked up at her and nodded, turning towards the class. I'm so scared...I wish Chiaki was next to me...I hesitantly take off my hood. Everyone looked at me surprised, some didn't look happy to see me, while others were confused why I was here. I recognized everyone in the classroom...well...almost everyone. There was one boy who had tannish skin with spiky brown hair that showed a noticeable ahoge. He was staring at me...he looked just as shocked and confused as I was...how come I've never seen him until now? I guess we've never crossed paths till today...I wonder who he is? Maybe Chiaki knows, she knows a lot of people here, but...maybe she doesn't know him like me...I sigh a bit. I guess...I should try and get to know my new classmate...maybe...we could be friends...? No...that probably won't happen...he will hate me like everyone else...
