Three Second Is All It Takes

       Entering a new school and being given a second chance felt like it was dream, a dream that I could never seem to wake up from. Meeting new friends again felt refreshing like the first time I entered high school. I cursed the day I allowed myself to trust a scumbag like him, To let him get what he wanted, I curse myself for allowing myself to be taken advantage of by men like that old guy, and my father. I should have told my mom what my father did to me, how he..... damn it as angry as I am at him I still get more upset with her for not trusting me, for not believing me. I don't understand why this had to happen to me, maybe I should have made friends at middle school or maybe hang out with my mom more. Maybe I should....

" Hey you should be paying attention idiot, " said Izuki with a bothered look.

" Instead on focusing on me, maybe you should mind your own business," I said with a vicious whisper.

" Yoshida-san if you're done talking, I would like for all of us to focus on the lesson," said our teacher.

Izuki smirked towards me with a smuggle look on his face. That bastard is now mocking me, but in hindsight it's like he knew what I was thinking. I should prank him for what he did to me though. Class continued on, and even as I maintained focus I still felt disgusted with everything that had occurred til now. Despite his attitude, he did save me from the worse that could have come. He told me that Yamato sold me off as sex slave to pay off the debt, but I get a sinking feeling that there might be more to this. I can admit one thing, even though Yamato saw the video he did take me in. Then again he convinced me with lies and I stupidly did cocaine so I should have no say in what really happened. The last class of the day was over and I paired up with Naomi as she took me to her tech club. On our way their we were confronted by a group a boys, thinking on what had happened on my old school I began to panic, but Naomi grabbed my hand giving me some reassurance.

" Hey doesn't that girl look familiar," said the leader of the group.

" Yeah she's that chick that got raped by the boys in that video, I'm surprised she even have the money to be here," said the one of the boys.

The leader of the boys started to walk towards us Naomi quickly put me behind her, but no avail. he shoved her against the lockers as the other boys pinned her. He quickly pinned me on the locker as well as he began to touch my breast.

" Damn her rack feels really good, seeing that you're not busy maybe I loosen that little hole of yours and show you what a real c*ck can do," he said as he caressed his other hand between my thighs.

I began to panic and out of shire will I screamed at the top of my lungs, and as if on cue both Shin and Izuki attacked the leader in an instant. Both boys fought the leader and his crew like heroes in a shonen manga. Each kick, punch, dodge looked impressive, I was in awe by their calmness despite the numbers being stacked against them.  They both grabbed the leader of the group and pinned him to the lockers. Izuki looked at him furiously.

" If I catch you near any of these two girls, you'll be eating food through a straw," said Shin 

" H- Hey man we're just messing around with the new girl it's not like.... " before he could finish Izuki punched the locker.

"Through a straw and that goes for your lap dogs, now get," said Izuki as he let the boy go.

After the group left, both Shin and Izuki checked on us. To my surprise I realized this is the first time a boy ever really showed care for me. Naomi hugged me crying and apologizing for not trying hard enough and I just kept on telling her that everything was fine. Izuki looked at me with worried eyes, as I tried to thank him he went to Shin, nodded and proceed to leave.

" HEY COME BACK," I yelled as I ran after him. 

As I reached him, I turned him around and kissed his cheek. Despite wanting to prank him, despite wanting to know what his deal was, I kissed his cheek and left him standing there speechless. In those three seconds I could tell that he was really human and caring and that he wasn't all bad. For the first time in my life I felt that I can trust in people and the first person that I never really got to thank was right in front of me. As I returned back to Naomi and Shin, they couldn't help but ask the normal question like, do you like him? or she has fallen for her knight in shining armor, I told them that I was only grateful to that jerk for what he did today and that Shin did just as much to save us. We headed towards the robotics club and I was introduced to the group members. Reality hit when I met the richest tech experts in history starting with Kiki Honda, she is the Co Owner of 7.5 Industries, along side her is of course Jimin Suguhara the mixed Korean Japanese god and I can say now that there is no surprise as to why girls love him. The last person is Dachi Okina CEO of Lanstar robotics and the son of the famous Ena Okina well known as Amaterasu. 

" Thank you all for accepting me," I said as we left. Due to our little encounter, it was night time by the time we got to the club room. As we began to exit the school, Naomi called for her chauffeur, but of course Shin was already one step ahead and offered to take us. As we dropped of Naomi, Shin walked her to her doorstep, kissed her goodbye, and processed to directed the chauffeur to Izuki's house.

" I know Izuki seems to be like your typical asshole, but trust me he cares about  you more than he leads on, and I think that kiss of yours made him blush a little," said Shin as he chuckled. 

" OMG! I can't believe i did something so embarrassing I didn't even realize what I was doing in the heat of moment! I said as Shin began to laugh even more.

" Don't worry Naomi didn't see it, anyway can I ask a favor of you? " said Shin looking for confirmation. In response, I nodded.

" Whatever you do, try to not make things hard for Izuki he may not look like it, but he is still going through some hardships," as Shin said this, I nodded promising Shin I would do as he says.

As we finished our conversation, Shin accompanied me to the door and bid his farewell. Sophia greeted me at the door, served me dinner, and proceeded to run my bath. After eating and enjoying a hot bath, I decided to check up on Izuki, I knocked on his door but no answer. To my luck his door was unlocked and I let myself in. He room looked well organized for a boys room and neat. A large bookshelf filled with books, a king sized bed, and a expensive computer, a walk in closet and most of all the normal necessities. As I looked around, I noticed he had his headphones on and was on his computer reading a book. As I approached him, I remembered what he did to me in class I decided to prank him for what he did. As I prepared to scare him, I couldn't help but smell the fragrance of his black damped hair. I felt weak in the knees as I slowly covered his eyes with my left hand, put the back of his head against my chest as I caressed his hair between the fingers of my right hand. He smelled the fragrance of Sophia and said her name. I was taken aback, but what he said next surprised me. He said that he promises that he would protect me no matter the cost. As if on cue, Sophia approached us and responded

" I know you will."

Sophia quickly took my place and began to mess with him as I made my daring, but quiet escape.  As I entered my room, my heart couldn't stop beating, I jump on my bed covering my face with the pillow. I couldn't believe what I had just did, just being in this house for a few months and I fell in love with a guy, the guy that saved me.
