RIDE | kurenai shu

Shu's never been so glad to hear the shrill ring of the bell as he packs up and goes outside. He's drained like a battery from training Spriggan and from Valt's incessant pestering, mind squeezed out like a lemon at the lessons. Heading over to the parking rack, he's so glad he's brought his bike out, wheeling it out of the school pavement, walking was surely to tire him out more than biking would he supposes. 

"SHU!" a loud feminine voice calls out, Shu is snapped out from his tired haze and quickly gets on his bike, expecting yet also hoping it wasn't one of those crazy fangirls of his. More bonus points to him bringing his bike as he could escape them faster. He doesn't even bother to put his helmet on. 

But as he turns his head, the beating of his heart considerably slows and he feels thankful but irked to find out the owner of the voice was none other than (F/N) (L/N). Now (F/N) was a good friend of his but her energy matched that of Valt. She was annoying in ways that provoked Shu to move to another country the moment he even catches a glimpse of her. 

"Yes?" He place his helmet on, clasping the chin strap all the while responding to her, mustering the most worn out tone for the girl to notice how he wasn't in the mood to run his mouth. Alas she does not and asks "Hey! Can I ride on your bike?"

Gods no. Please no. 

"No" he bluntly says to which she responds the refusal with a pout "What! You didn't even think about it" "I didn't have to" Really he didn't, he had absolutely no time to give (F/N) a ride nor entertain her any longer. And there she went, her face contorting into one of the most annoyed faces this world's ever seen. It's not Shu's fault, he just wants to go home. "Come on please!" To his surprise, she grabs his arm and shakes it, managing to almost make his bike clatter to the ground if he didn't react quickly enough and steadied the handle with his other arm, grip as if that was his lifeline

"No, can't you just walk?" He says, still in that reserved demeanor of his "I'm too lazy and too tired to do so" He gives her a deadpanned and unimpressed gaze, sighing and is about to walk away when (F/N) latches on his torso with both arms "Oh come on! Shu please!" She whines 

The action catches the boy off guard, too soon, he thinks, too soon "(F/N), hey, cut that off, I have homework to do" "You say that as if it's going to take you a long time to do. Aren't you THE Kurenai Shu whose mind is like no other? Full marks in every subject" He rolls his eyes "Flattery doesn't work on me nor would it give you a ride" He walks past her once her arms are off of him, though there's a part of him that misses it slightly. Slightly. (F/N) goes after him until they are near each other again "How about wit?" He raises an eyebrow "You can do that?" She slaps his arm "Intimidation then?" Petty isn't Shu's qualities, he is anything but, yet he looks at her and lifts his hair to show his scar and her eyes are narrowed and mouth agape "What? What does that even mean?" 

"Surely scars are meant to intimidate someone won't it? Despite the fact I've got them from a beybattle from someone who is a year younger than me" "Which is my point, just as flattery or wit won't work on you, intimidation won't work on me!" "You know what will though?" She smiles and nods for him to continue "Leaving me alone" She cries out "You're literally so mean Shu! How does Valt tolerate you?" "Valt doesn't tolerate me, I tolerate Valt" She clutches her heart "You're literally so unfiltered, my god, who raised you?" "No one, that's why" 

She frowns, stopping "That's not really a brag you know?" "I know but just a little explanation why I am the way I am, now please, if you don't mind I'm going home, I have dinner to prepare" "SHU!" She's so damn persistent he thinks. He groans "Don't you know what no means?" "Shu please! I'll do anything!" "No thanks" He resumes walking once more, in utter ignorance yet regret has already planted itself among Shu. Hearing the groan made it vanish as she had now raised the white flag.
