Dumb Romance [DISCONTINUED]

Part II

          A tall figure loom over the resting female on the bed. His knuckles is turning white due to him clenching his fists so hard. A pair of his ebony eyes barely show emotion in them as he just stare at the female sleeping soundly under the white sheet. Not far from them is the unconscious nurse—no, not because she was knocked out unwillingly, the nurse is having her sweet slumber on her working desk. Something that she shouldn't have done but it isn't that shocking as she is known to be a laid back person.

Toshio inch closer to the bed when, “What are you doing?” A rather loud and strict voice startles everyone in the infirmary. The nurse wake up immediately and blink at the two new students in the room.

“Are you feeling sick too? That bed is occupied you know?” The nurse yawn, stretching her back. She is referring to Toshio who is now glancing at Mamoru. Mamoru had his brows furrowed once his eyes landed on the male feet away from him.

Without saying a word, Toshio turns away, his back facing Y/N and walk his way out. Mamoru raise a brow in confusion when the male student just walk away without putting up a fight.

‘I guess he isn't that rebellious like the others told me’ Mamoru thought to himself. He glance back at the female who previously was resting on the bed. A worried expression quickly replaced the confused one when he sees Y/N's pale face (not like the skin colour but the colour from reader's face just drained due to fear).

“He... he was about to kill me..” Y/N deadpan at the doorway. She couldn't even realize that Mamoru was walking towards her and literally in front of her.

“No, he wasn't.” Mamoru assures and give Y/N a small smile. “I scared him away, don't you see?” He laughs lightly. His laugh catch Y/N off guard and she finally glance up at him.

“What are doing here?” Y/N smiles at him, a little thankful for his appearance.

“Ms. Ueda told me to check you up since it's almost lunch break. She also said something that the nurse likes to laze off during this moment and worried you'll miss out lunch..” Mamoru explained. Y/N nod her head in understatement.

“But why you out of all people?” Y/N asking again while wearing back her indoor shoes she had previously removed.

“Ms. Ueda told me that no one is willing to do so and the rest suggested me to check up on you.” Mamoru explained, yet again.

‘Wow, speaking of bullying the new student aren't we?’ Y/N thought sarcastically. She sighs and stand up from the bed.

“Thank you for taking care of me.” Y/N bows at the nurse before walking away. Mamoru shuffles uncomfortably seeing Y/N walk past him just like that.

“Wait!” He calls out and follow the girl out the infirmary, closing the door behind them.

Meanwhile, the nurse sit in her chair slouching, her eyes staring absentmindedly on the floor seemingly deep in thought. The silent air surrounding her.

“Do I always laze off?”

“Hey, you can't just leave like that!” Mamoru whine, unsatisfied. “At least, let's go to the cafeteria and have lunch together?”

Y/N sighs, not in frustration but more to disappoinment, of herself. “Look, I'm doing you a favour okay? You should have listen to everyone when they told you to stay away from me.. Who knows if you get beaten up after school.. But if you did, don't blame it on me, blame it on yourself.” Y/N waves her hand weakly as an attempt to shoo the student away.

‘To be honest, I think it is me who will get beaten up after school. Wonder what Toshio had in his mind. I just hope he would just beat me and leave without having another filthy plan.’ Y/N thought. Goosebumps crawling on her skin at the thought.

“I can protect myself and I am sure I can protect you either. Just stick with me and I will guard you until we graduate.” Mamoru assures, suddenly taking the maiden's hands into his. Smiling confidently at the girl.

“Yeah... Okay, thanks.” Y/N smiles awkwardly and pull her hand from his. She began walking away with Mamoru following her like a dog. He seems happy to help a friend. And silently Y/N also feels happy to not feel lonely anymore.

(time skip)

Her right leg furiously tapping the floor as her eyes wildly dart at the clock hanging on the wall, as if she want to sprint away quickly. Y/N couldn't focus on her class, especially after she discovered something in her drawer a while ago.

‘Meet me at the back after the school is over.

-Toshio’ the letter said. Y/N almost pissed herself when she saw the written name.

‘Please let this be a cruel joke some asshole pull on me.’ Y/N prays even though she knows very well that no one mess up with Toshio's preys. It was considered a warning to everyone when Toshio beat up a student just for helping out that fateful day.

‘Should I sprint once the school bell ring? Will he able to know? But if I didn't meet him after school, how will he react tomorrow? Then, I shouldn't go to school tomorrow. What if he goes to find me? What about that?’ Y/N cries internally, fearing for her counted days.

The anxiety showed by Y/N didn't go unnoticed by Mamoru. Heck, everyone notice how scared Y/N is. Mamoru is disappointed on how everyone is reacting towards Y/N's situation. Why didn't they stand up for justice? Especially for Y/N, their classmate who they have known for years?? Well, not really. They only know her name but not her story.

‘Will I go home in bruises? How will I explain to my manager if I showed up with bruises on the workplace. Oh God! Please help me this time!! Just shorten my life, I just want to live until I graduate!!’ Y/N whimpers silently, she bury her head into her arms. This barely go unnoticed by the teacher teaching in front.

A/N: Ugh,,, the future chapters gone missing! As for today, I only got to post one chapter at the moment but I planned on posting two on one day... ಥ‿ಥ
