The Plan

《3rd Person》

It was early in the morning and school had yet to begin. The girl decided to head to the library. She wouldn't be lying if she said it wasn't her favorite place to visit. The vast selection of books simply astounded her. From spine chilling horror novels, to mythology, and so on. She found herself in the fiction section and was looking for a good book to read. There were so many good options she didn't know what to pick. So, she narrowed it down to three books. Peter Pan, Wizard of Oz, and the story of King Arthur. 

She loved to read, she had been to so many places around the world, even in space, and she never had to leave her room to do so. She was standing at a table with the three books laid upon it, debating on what to read when hands covered her eyes. "Well hello princess. ~ What has you in the library this morning hm?" She chuckled and removed his hands. "I'm trying to decide on what to read actually. Care to help?" She asked point that the selection she's made. "Hmm." The blonde said putting a finger on his lips, concentration taking over his features. "King Arthur." He said pointing at the last book. "May I inquire as to your reasoning Tatsu?" She asked as she picked up the book. He shrugged and helped her put up the remaining two books. 

"It's just a good read. It's got almost everything. Action, magic, romance, even horror." She hummed in response and sat down in an armchair. Tatsuki however picked her up and sat her in his lap. She turned bright red and looked at him in surprise. "Wh-what are you doing?" He smirked at her reaction finding it adorable, he wrapped his arms around her and placed his head on her shoulder. "What? I wanted to read too." She sighed but did nothing to stop his actions. Little did she know this only made his obsession grow deeper for her. She was like an intoxicating drug to him, and he felt himself going through severe withdrawals without her near him. He was totally in love with the h/l h/c haired girl. She was yet to realize just how obsessive not just he could be. For the others felt very much the same as the blonde. He smiled contentedly as he read the book with her.

Burying his face in the crook of her neck, taking up her scent and letting it flood his senses. She however was unaware of his intentions for her. She let herself become fully immersed in the book, her mind setting up the scenes as if she had a small movie going on in her head. She didn't even notice the others show up. It took a few minutes before she looked up and saw them all staring at her and Tatsuki. "Tch. Get off him already. Can't you see he's enjoying it far too much?" She looked behind her to only feel the male clutch onto her for tighter and saw an expression of pure bliss on the male's face. Ichigo was getting irritated at the sight, so he wrenched the girl from his grasp and pulled her close to him. 

The book fell to the floor with a small thud. "Now that was rude." Tatsuki puffed as he crossed his arms and began pouting in the chair. Upset due to the girl no longer being in his grasp. The others had dark looks in their eyes. Though she didn't see it due to being shoved into Ichigo's broad chest. "You mind?" She said pushing on him to let her go. He turned slightly pink and shoved her off of him making her fall on her butt next to the book. "Shit. I'm sorry Y/n. I-I didn't mean to." He said pulling her up and began inspecting her for any harm that he may have caused. She giggled and patted his head making him turn a darker shade of red. "She's fine Ichigo." Senri said picking up the book. 

"King Arthur huh? It's quite a good read. I've read it at least three times." He pushed put his glasses and examined the pages feeling some semblance of nostalgia take over him. He handed the book back to the girl with a small smile. "Three times huh? Quite a lot don't you think?" She asked reopening it to the page she left off and sat down on a beanbag. "Well, I had a lot of alone time as a kid, so I spent it in my parents' library." An image of a small red-haired boy sitting alone in a library surrounded by stacks of books flashed in his mind. "Mind if we join you Y/n?" Zen asked holding up a book of his own. She gave a soft smile and patted the chair next to her. The shy male took it eagerly and opened his book. 

"Seriously it's been the fifth time you've read that series. Can't you read something else?" Ichigo asked taking the book from him. "Give it back! It's my favorite book!" Zen said stomping his foot on the ground. Though he quickly shied away when he saw some onlookers shushing him. "It's just Harry Potter Zen. I see you with this book all the time." Ichigo said peering at the cover. It was the third book in the series. Zen's absolute favorite book. His mother had gifted it to him before she died. "Ichigo. Give that back to him right now. You have no business just taking stuff from people." Y/n said glaring at him. The long-haired male grumbled but tossed the book back, nonetheless.

"Thank you." He said clutching the book to his chest. She gave him a soft closed eye smile. "You are truly kind Y/n. You know that?" Senri said taking the seat on her right. "Well, it really depends on the person honestly." She said flipping a page in her book. "What do you mean?" The red head asked curiously. "Well...I know that you should treat everyone with kindness, and I always try to do so. But there are some people out there who just don't deserve it ya know? Some people are just mean and cruel, although they have their own reasons for doing so. It doesn't justify being mean to someone. People who give kindness should deserve the same but that's not how the world works I'm afraid. So, I try to be kind when I need to be and mean if the situation absolutely calls for it." She said softly. "But it usually doesn't though." 

The boys looked at her slightly shocked at her response. "So, your kind to everyone unless the situation calls for you to be mean to someone?" Senri said looking at the girl intensely. "Yes." She said somewhat coldly. The boys looked at one another with a puzzled look. She sighed and closed the book with a small snap but not before marking the page. She stood up and went to the librarian to check it out. "What's up with her?" Ichigo asked looking at the girl who now had a sour look on her face. Her face turned to one of upmost rage when an all too familiar white-haired boy approached her. She turned on her heal and flipped the boy the finger as she walked away. Not even giving him the chance to talk. He followed her but kept his distance. "What a loser." Ichigo said crossing his arms watching him leave after her. "Yes, but that doesn't mean he can't be useful. He knows an awful lot about her and could help with moving her in with us." Senri said getting up to follow him. The others followed in suit; it didn't take long to catch up to Travis who was still following the girl.

Senri approached him and before he put a hand on his shoulder. He turned around to face them. "I know what you're planning to do." Travis said crossing his arms. Senri chuckled but pulled him into an empty classroom the others following closely behind them. "And just what might that be?" The red head said with a smirk. "You're trying to take Y/n for yourselves. I won't let you." "Oh really? Well, I think you'll change your mind if we let you in on our little plan." The others looked at the red head slightly shocked at his words. "Dude no way he-" But Senri raised a hand and silenced the long-haired male. "You want her too. I know you do; you make it painfully clear when you follow her like a lost puppy." Travis looked away his cheeks turning ever so slightly pink. 

"We need your help in order to get her. And if you help us, we would be willing to share her with you." "And if I refuse?" Senri chuckled darkly. "I don't think you have a choice. Since you know what we're up to. Even if you did tell Y/n it's not like she'd believe you after what you did." Senri laughed as he continued. "I mean she won't hear a word you have to say now." Travis growled and clenched his fists. "Fine. What do you want?" He said angrily. Senri's laughter had turned into small chuckles as he pushed up his glasses. "You are going to tell us everything you know about her. Strengths, weaknesses, etcetera. We have most of it planned out, but we need more information on her."

Although Travis didn't want to help them. He couldn't ignore the advantages that came with it. So he agreed to it. Letting them know almost everything there was to know about the girl. Almost.

The boys had all finished talking and looked at the clock. "The bell should have rung by now. Its five minutes past." Senri said confused. The announcement chime rang throughout the school as the principal's voice came through the speakers. "Good morning students. School has been canceled today and for the rest of the week due to the current investigation that is being held. Early this morning the Police had discovered two more victims so due to the unfortunate circumstances, we will be taking immediate action and questioning all students before they leave today. That is all." The speakers cut off with a small click and the boys all looked at each other. The plan had to begin, and soon. They all left the classroom Travis separating from them heading in another direction. "So, it begins."
