POT of FLOWERS

Act. 02

Yukino Kira never pays attention in class yet he always tops the scoreboard. That was until Akabane Hakaru entered his world. Since then, Yukino Kira is falling in second place at being the top excellent student in their year. He doesn't give a care though and thinks it was a lucky break to divert the teachers' attention elsewhere.

Yukino Kira leans to his right where Subaru Daiki was and whispers, "Oi, oi, we have a quiz today? Why wasn't the great me informed?"

Subaru Daiki whispers back, "You idiot! Where were you when the fearsome Hachigawa-sensei announced it yesterday?"

Yukino Kira pouts and didn't said a word after that. He took the test but slept at the middle of it. For the rest of the morning, Yukino Kira did nothing but sleep and drooling over delicious appetizers in his dream.

Subaru Daiki, "Yukino, wake up! We're moving classrooms."

Yukino Kira wrinkles his eyes open with a huge yawn, "What? Is the quiz over?"

Subaru Daiki places a hand on his hip, "You idiot, you slept all the way to the end."

Yukino Kira puffs his cheeks and turns his attention at Akabane Hakaru who is currently preparing his art materials for the next class. Yukino Kira, "How did you go, Hakaru-chan? A perfect score?"

Akabane Hakaru glances at him and exited the classroom although Yukino Kira heard a low "Hmph" from him.

Yukino Kira, "How unfriendly. Who annoyed him this time?"

Subaru Daiki, "Who else besides you? And from the looks of it, he doesn't want to see you ever again."

Yukino Kira grins, "All the more for me to stick annoyingly close to him."

Subaru Daiki sighs, "When will you ever stop? If his entire family ever finds out about this, nobody's going to bury your corpse."

Yukino Kira, "You've already buried my corpse so many times, what's wrong with once more? Besides, who cares about what happens after death? Seize the day before then!"

Subaru Daiki, "With your positivity, I can't keep up with you. Come on, if you keep dawdling there, we're definitely going to be late."

Yukino Kira slowly rises to his feet and stretches his arms up in the air, "Yes, sir. Hitler, sir."

Subaru Daiki, "Who's Hitler?"

Yukino Kira, "No one."

The two left the classroom and quietly treads the path towards the art room located at the third floor of the building. The very first thing Yukino Kira did after entering the spacious room was search for Akabane Hakaru who fails to meet his gaze. Yukino Kira deliberately puffs his cheeks like a child in disappointment.

A beautiful woman with short brown hair claps her fragile hands in attention. All of them turns to her and she smiles. Fumiya Kyoko, "Okay! For today's activity, I'll have you go into pairs and draw each other. You have exactly 45 minutes. Any questions?"

Yukino Kira raises his hand, "Hai~! Hai~! Over here~!"

Fumiya Kyoko turns to him, "What is it, Yukino-kun?"

Yukino Kira, "Is it true that you and Hachi---mmph!?"

Subaru Daiki quickly covers his mouth before he can finish his sentence. Yukino Kira flails around like a fish fresh out of the sea. Shrugging the commotion, everyone starts finding for their partners.

Subaru Daiki removes his hands with a glare, "You really are an idiot! What's the point of you asking about other people's relationship?"

Yukino Kira, "She did suggest to ask, right? It's not like I'm in the wrong here being seen walking out in the inn this morning."
