Shizuko's Pov
I'd just changed my shoes and was on my way to the classroom to attend first class. My mind still swirled about yesterday. I wondered if showing my scars like that had been a mistake? Not to mention what I'd told him. I was fairly certain he wouldn't report it to the police. At least he shouldn't if I were to believe what he'd told me, that he needed something that'd lock my father up immideately. The scars wasn't enough to do that, since there was no proof that he was the one who made them. Would Akashi loose interest now that he'd gotten to see the scars? Even though it wasn't enough for an arrest, it was definetly enough to confirm his suspiscouns. It was what he'd wanted all along wasn't it? My heart clenched slightly, I'd always been so focused on getting rid of him that I hadn't really noticed how much I appreciated having him around. The idea of not having him around made me uneasy for some reason. I could never admit that to him though, it'd still be the best if he kept his distance. I could endure the solitude, like I always had.
Just as I rounded a corner, intent on heading up the stairs, towards the classroom I almost walked straight into Sorano, one of the top girls in the redhead's fanclub. I cursed mentally as soon as I saw her. She was one of the few girls who had the guts to run her mouth at me. As soon as she spotted me a nasty glare appeared in her eyes. The four other girls also turned to face me as they noticed my precense.
"You-" I rolled my eyes at her dark tone and started to make my way past them and towards the stairs.
"I need to get to class" I grumbled sourly, fully intent on not wasting any time on them, Sorano stepped infront of me before I managed to put them behind me and I sighed. Here we go...
"There's rumors that you and Akashi-sama were seen exiting one of the conference rooms yesterday after lunch. What were you up to?" The jealously in her tone made me want to barf. I groaned in irritation while my shoulders sagged as I realized I wasn't going to be able to get away before the bell rang.
"Nothing interesting, though it's none of your buisness" Sorano didn't look convinced at all as she used a hand to push her hair off her shoulder.
"Don't lie you thieving bitch" I raised an eyebrow and stared at her in a passive manner. And what exactly is it that I've stolen? I'd lost count of how many times I'd had argument's like this with this crowd.
"If you don't believe me, why don't you ask Akashi?" She suddenly became flustered at the question, though her glare intensified. Watching her try to talk to him would certainly be entertaining, she barely even dared to look at him.
"As if I'd ever ask him such a disrespectful question! And how dare you speak of him so informally?!" I pursed my lips and took a deep breath to pace myself, I really didn't have the patience for this kind of bullshit early in the morning.
"Then why are you asking me if it's so disrespectful?" She scoffed and placed a hand on her hip, sending me a scornful look.
"Because you're nothing but a lowly rat. I really don't get why he bothers with you. You're so rude and unraffined... Tsk... And those scars, it disgusts me to look at you" I stared at her impatiently as she tried to tick me off.
"Again, you should ask him. Since he's the one who refuses to leave me alone. Now, if you'll excuse me" I began to step around her again, but she cut me off. She really wants to get on my bad side doesn't she?
"Don't you dare walk off when I'm speaking to you! The rest of us are sick of watching you hog all his attention! You're not deserving of him" This was so stupid I didn't even know how to handle it, I wasn't in the diplomatic mood.
"Not my fault you can't get his attention. It's not exactly strange when you can't even bring yourself to look at him" She gritted her teeth as I provoked her, then shook her head, a cunning smirk making it's way to her face.
