On top of the roof in Seihei high,was the "popular" group eating lunch.Some students saw them going up to the roof but they didn't wanna follow them for various reasons
It has been a few days since they've been going to the roof during lunch,The students.No.The whole school has an unwritten rule that the roof is reserved for the popular group
"Soo.How does it feel to be popular Hiroto?" Sora playfully said
"Heh,it's not that different from before" Hiroto gave a sheepish smile as he scratches the back of his head
"!..Really?"
"Nothing's really changed,at first I got bombarded by questions.Then the number of people bothering me have gone down but I was definitely overshadowed by you guys"
"Aw man,I expected you to be a lot more popular than that,my bad it didn't work"
"Nah it's good,really.Dont apologize"
"Hey can someone help me?"
Hiroto and Sora turned our heads to see Kaito...holding a cup of instant noodles?
"Anyone have a fork or something?" Kaito says "I can't use chopsticks"
"Huh? Why's that?" Sora asked
"I don't know how to use chopsticks"
"...you for real? I thought you knew how to use them"
"Why did you bring a cup of instant noodles to school anyways?" Hiroto asked
"Huh? You can't bring a cup of noodles to school?!?"
Huh? Where the fuck did he get that from?! Hiroto thought
"O–kay chill out there" Is he the type to jump into conclusions? "In some schools you can't,but we're in the roof so you can't really get caught"
Kaito lets out a sigh of relief "phew,okay I was worried there for a second"
"Also let me clarify,I was asking why you brought a cup of noodles instead of a bento or something"
"Well I haven't had the chance to eat noodles for a while now so I'm craving for some"
Hearing that,though still confused,Hiroto gave him a spare fork I had in my pocket
"Woah! You had a fork in your pocket? That's a safety hazard!"
"Is it? It's only aimed at me though..?"
"Still,You could've hurt your hand,be more careful next time"
Kaito has a serious expression while he says that to Sora
"Uh–ye-yeah,sure..."
"Great,good thing you understand"
I still haven't gotten used to him being gentle and caring in contrast to his scary aura
"Oh–thanks for the fork by the way!"
"Yeah,no problem"
What a mood switch
Kaito went back to his noodles and poured out the hot water he had in it...God knows where he got it from
Sora pats Hiroto on the back
"Can't get used to a gentle giant huh?"
"You read my mind"
"Don't worry,you'll get used to it eventually"
"I hope so"
On the other side of the roof,there was the couple,doing couple things
"Mmm! Yummy! You always make the best food Yuna-Chan"
"I'm glad you like it Shiunji-kun.But you know what would make it even better~"
"Even better? Sure,what is it!" Shiunji's eyes sparkle in excitement
Yuna with her chopsticks,plucked a piece of karaage from her bento and waved it at Shiunji's face
"Say ahh~"
Shiunji was sure surprised,but played along anyway
"Aaaah"
She carefully puts the food in his mouth,making sure not to shove it in too hard
"Good boy~"
Caught off guard,he blushed.His face bright red "Hwa–" Shiunji started coughing heavily
"Oh,was my effort to gently feed you in vein.Maybe I should shove it harder next time"
"You really cough don't need to cough do that"
Hiroto and Sora was watching and listening in on their interaction while eating their lunch.Like someone watching a sit com on the tv while eating breakfast
Shit,he likes it like that huh
"Yes he does"
Hiroto looks at Sora what are you a mind reader?
Sora looks at them for a while and turns to Hiroto "Have you ever thought of having a girlfriend Hiroto?"
...? What a random question "um...uh,oh yeah.I have this childhood frien–"
"Oh no"
"Why the heck did you cut me off! And why oh no!?"
"Ahem nothing,continue"
"...well,anyways as I was saying.I have a childhood friend,I don't know where she is right now...but we did promise to eachother that we would meet again"
"And by the topic I'm guessing you like here?"
"Hell yeah I do,she is super my type.Im heating up just from thinking about her"
"Hmm.Yeah no–you're cooked"
"Ehh!? What do you mean by that?"
"It's a common trope in a romcom anime bro.The childhood friend always loses.I bet in the future,there's gonna be some popular model that transfers here,likes you but is a tsundere.Then,the childhood friend is gonna see you two getting all lovey dovey and form a big ass love triangle"
"Heh? That's more likely to happen to you than me!"
"The chances are low,but never a zero"
"W-well–what about you huh! Ever thought about getting a girlfriend?!!"
Upon hearing that,Sora looked down on the ground.The atmosphere having a more serious or sad vibe
Shit,did I fuck up!?
"There was this one girl–"
Or maybe not
"I...loved her...but I was rejected before I even confessed"
I messed up?! Fuck,this is going downhill
"It was a good thing I had a good friend at that time.Or I would've gotten depressed"
Stop with the ups and downs already!!
"Oh! Uh...sorry if I piled up some drama on you"
"Th-thats okay! I...shouldn't have asked in the first place"
In the end.They both laughed it off,they went back to eating lunch,making some small talk.And as they finished eating
BEEP
Hearing sound from his phone,Sora grabbed his phone from his pocket and opened it
Hiroto thought Wonder what that is
Sora looked at his line to check the message...and he suddenly goes limp and hits his head on his phone
Kaito rushed over to them,seeing Sora now on the floor "Gah! What's the problem Sora-san?!"
That was fast–where did you come from?
"N-nothing,it's just...uh" Sora sighs "I'm just disappointed at myself"
"And why's that!?"
Sora takes a deep breath "you see I have this friend that I told I was gonna teach them something but I don't even know how to teach it mysel–"
"OKAY,slow the hell down!"
"Yeah bro,start from the top and take it slow"
This conversation attracted the eye of Shiunji and Yuna,seeming excited about the gossip
"U-uhm...well.."
***
Shiunji hits Sora in the head
"How the hell did you forget something like that!"
"Yowch!" Sora puts his hand on the spot Shiunji hit him "I was stressing all right! I watched some anime to clear my head and then I forgot about it"
"...I see" Kaito says
As he also hits Sora in the head
"How the hell did you forget something like that!"
"Nakamura-San!" Hiroto says "Not you too!"
Shiunji says "Haah,anyways–what are you gonna do about it?"
"I-i don't know.There isn't enough time for me to learn what I'm gonna teach"
"What exactly are you gonna teach?"
"That's private information!"
You gatekeeping bastard
"Okay then–when are you gonna teach her?"
"Today after school"
"...eh?"
"Sorry if I'm mistaken Sora-kun.But aren't you a fast learner? Like really fast?" Yuna says
"Ah,that's a story for another day.All you have to know is that on the topic I'm teaching is something I can't perfect in a short time"
Hiroto whispered to Kaito "Nakamura-San what are they talking about?"
"Oh yeah,you don't know.See in our first year in high school,Sora was barely surviving in English class.So Sora's teacher told Sora that he would need to improve his English if he wanted a chance at getting into a school at Tokyo,and he took that to heart,it took him one day to improve his english by a lot"
Eh? So in first year and below he was barely passing English,and he learnt it in a day? That's crazy
"It's not only at English too,even in other stuff learns really fast.So you can imagine that we are surprised when he says he can't learn something"
Sora...you are one really interesting guy
[Meanwhile Sora and Shiunji]
"Aughhhh! What do I dooo! You gotta help me!!"
"...Okay"
"Gasps,really!?"
"Yeah...I'll help you" Shiunji hits Sora in the head again "START BY TAKING DEEP BREATH'S BRO! YOU'RE REEEALLY STRESSING ME OUT!!"
Sora hits Shiunji back
"STOP HITTING ME,AND WHY THE HECK ARE YOU THE ONE GETTING STRESSED OUT!!"
Yuna comes between them and hits both of their heads with veins popping out of her head.She looks like she's forcing a smile.Kinda creepy
"Will both of you please stop screaming"
"...owkay" x2
***
"Okay I've calmed down.Now can you help me Shiunji?"
"Hold up,I'm trying to think of something"
"No need" Yuna says "I've already thought of something you could do Sora-kun"
"Hm?" x2
"It's very simple really"
... Famous last words?
"Just teach her what you know about it"
Nevermind
"Don't overcomplicate things.You're great at a lot of stuff,so teaching her what you know about it instead of taking the time to learn other things is way easier and overall better"
"...?"
"...sighs,do whatever you want.Go with the flow"
"I see,you got it"
Shiunji hits Sora on the head...again "Dumbass"
"STOP HITTING ME ON MY FUCKING HEAD!!" Sora throws a left hook hitting Shiunji right on the face
"...alright I deserved that"
The sound of the bell ringing echoed through the entire school,signaling the end of lunch
"Ah,lunch ended"
"Let's get going now"
"Kaitoo! Hirotoo!"
"Uhh, you guys go on first"
"Eh? Okay then"
Sora,Shiunji and Yuna go down the stairs while Kaito and Hiroto stayed to discuss something
And as the three walked to a section where they would part ways
"This is my turn,see ya guys"
"Bye bye Sora-Kun"
"...Sora"
"...! Hm?"
"...Good luck"
Sora makes a big smile "Thanks!"
Thanks for the kind words.Those just made my day
