Love Me, Saihara.

Chapter 2

.^ Kokichi's POV ^.
"Hey, Ouma!" Shit.
I turned around, forced to speak to the person I really didn't wanna see.
Shuichi Saihara.
"Saihara-Chan~!! Heyyyy!" I faked happiness, choking back tears.
"H-Hey..Ouma.." The taller boy panted, his face flushed, he had obviously been running. "Shumaiiii.." I crossed my arms, pretending to pout. "Uh..Y-Yeah, Ouma...?" "How far did you run?" He had stopped panting at this point, just standing, thinking.
Oh, geez...Why does he look so.? cute..? Jeez, Saihara...Marry-
"W-Well..I saw you walking out of the store...And I as I was walking into that store over there, " He pointed to a store at least a block away. "And I ran..So..Not very far..i'm probably just out of shape." He chuckled softly. "Aww...You ran all that way just to talk to little 'ol me?" I smirked at him. I really don't appreciate you talking to me, Shuichi. I REALLY didn't wanna talk to anybody. "-eah..I've been worried about you, Kokichi.."
This snapped me out of my thoughts...He was worried about me..? "Worried? Worried for what reason?" I tilted my head slightly, looking at him. "Mhm...You..haven't been coming to school, or anything like that..A-And..You don't answer your phone, and no one knew where you were..-" He stopped talking all of a sudden. "K-Kokichi..!" He gave me a worried look, why? "Hmm~?" I looked down, noticing a small amount of blood on my chin. "Oh..shit." I wiped the blood from my chin and mouth on my sleeve, wiping the blood from my finger on my pants. "Whoopsie! Bad habit of minnee..!" I hadn't realized it, but...I had been biting down on my finger. Apparently, I had bit down on it hard enough that it bled. "..Whatttt..?" I gave Shuichi an annoyed look..Exposing how I truly felt about this conversation. Annoyed. "N-Nothing..Sorry.." He pulled his hat down, covering his golden eyes. "...Ouma..Why haven't you been coming to school..? You haven't showed up in a few weeks.." Ah, right..Forgot about that..
As I thought up an excuse, I bit down on my fingernail, trying to think..What do I tell him? I can't tell him my real excuse. That'd be too..awkward. I can't tell him that I like him..
"-i..?"
I don't even know his sexuality. And plus, he's probably already dating Kaede..
"-Ichi..?"
What do I tell him? Ah- fuck!
"-Kichi..?" C'mon, Kokichi! Think, think, think, think-
"Kokichi!"
I snapped out of my thoughts, still not having a good excuse for Shuichi.
"A-Are you alright..?" He had a tinge of concern in his voice.
"Hmm~? Oh, yeah! I'm perfectly fine~!" I slid my hands behind my head, and as if on cue, I felt my throat clog with flower petals. Oh no, not now!!!
"A-Alright...You still haven't answered my question from earlier, though.."
Jeez. He must really want an answer, huh?
"Oh yeahhh. I just..Didn't wanna go~!" I smiled at Shuichi, hopeful he would believe the lie I had just thought of.
"But..t-thats- Your education is an important thing, Ouma." He gave me a stern look. He looked kinda scary, weird.
"My education is a boring thing, Shumaaiii.." I stuck my tongue out slightly at the thought of school.
He chuckled softly, "Alright..Well...I hope you'll be back to school on Monday. Have a nice rest of your day, Kokichi." And with that, he started walking away.
"Bye, Saihara-Chan~!! I'll miss yooouuuuu~!!"
And as soon as he walked away, I coughed. Petals coming out, blood staining the sidewalk where they landed. Is this considered littering? Probably. Whatevs. I quickly walked away from the 'crime scene' making my way back to the house.
