My Dear Nerd

Chapter 1

Yoshiko's Pov: 

I was what we know as the cute and popular girl in high school. I had everything I wanted, and did I mention I was rich? Life was amazing, or well it was. I had a boyfriend who I loved a lot. We were in a non-toxic relationship which I was obviously grateful for. I have this boy last period. He was a social outcast because he was a so called nerd. I'm jealous of him  in a way only because he took top spot in the class. It caused me to get second, but it's better than nothing right? Anyway, it's a lot better than my boyfriend, who ranked 15th in his class... Today I was sitting on the bleachers, watching him practice for football. When he finished he came up to me and gave me a hug. "Ewww... You stink!" I said jokingly. "Well you should go home, it's already kind of late for you." He said. I always wondered why he sent me home at 4:00 in the afternoon, but I didn't mind as he wouldn't be cheating on me. I nodded with a smile and continued my way home.

Today I decided to take the long route, which takes me under the bridge. As I was passing by I noticed the so called nerd standing and blocking his glasses from break as bullies were throwing baseballs at him. I ran over to them to stop them. "Hey stop!" I said, standing in front of the poor guy. "Move before we hit you too!" The main looking guys shouted. I sighed before taking three baseballs and throwing them really hard at his face. "How do you like when I do that huh? You don't like it right? Neither does he!" I said, pointing at the male behind me. "What do you get out of bullying him? Pleasure for your insecurities? Money for your broke ass who can't buy lunch with his own money?" I said to him with pure confidence. Sure I would get consequences later on, but I didn't care. 

I only cared for this poor guy's well being. Once the bullies ran off, after 20 minutes of pure roasting them, or well more of questioning what they would get out of this, I turned to the male. I sighed at the sight of him looking like he could cry at any moment. I knelt down in front of him and gently grabbed his chin. "May I see?" I asked with a soft and caring voice. He reluctantly nodded as I examined the wounds on his face. I sighed and pulled out the mini med kit I had in my bag and treated his wounds. I sat down next to him and stared at him. "What..?" He asked quietly. "Nothing." I said with a soft smile. "You're not here to make fun of me..?" He asked. My smile faded into a serious look. "For a so called nerd, you're pretty dumb." I said with a pout. "If I wanted to make fun of you I wouldn't have saved you." I said, pulling out a water bottle out of my bag. 

"Here drink this." I said, giving him a reassured smile. He hesitantly takes the water and drinks it. "Suguru Niragi right?" I asked. "What?" He said confused. "Your name. It's Suguru Niragi right?" I asked for confirmation and received a nod from him. I was about to give him my name but a friend called out to me. "Ah, sorry Niragi. I'll see you tomorrow hm?" I said with a smile and gave him a quick kiss on the cheek before running off to my friend. When I got home the first thing I did was shower. I didn't mind Niragi, he seemed like a nice guy. I kinda regret not giving him my name, or well he probably already knows it... Who knows. Nobody knows who's names he knows and what not because he doesn't speak much.  When I tried fall asleep that night, all I did was toss and turn in my bed. I ended up sleeping at 2:00 in the morning. 

Nobody's Pov:

Truth be told, it was hard for either two to sleep that night. Niragi was flustered but also confused at her actions. He didn't even have time to thank her for her actions before she ran off and left. He wanted to curse himself for being a coward. What he was unexpectent of was her hanging out with him during lunch for a bit and walking him home after school almost everyday. Their meeting took a turn in Niragi's life, but he didn't know that. Now what she was unexpectent of was the fact she was going to have a huge turn in her life as well, but it wasn't because of him. 

Niragi's Pov:

She just left me sitting there. I was in shock. Did a girl just kiss me..? The social outcast? The nerd? The bully victim..? She also said see you tomorrow. Does that mean I'll be talking to her more..? Or well her talking to me I should say. I find it hard to keep up a conversation, with a pretty person at 9that. I've had a crush on her since Sophomore year, it's Senior year now. I never had the courage to go up to her due to the fear of rejection, but now would I finally get my chance to talk to her? My mind raced with thoughts and questions until I took a shower. The cold water hitting my wounded face. Before getting in I had to take off the bandages she had put on. I finished my shower and I put new bandages on. 

When I tried to sleep, all I did was toss and turn. For some reason I couldn't stop thinking about what she did earlier? Or was it because my neighbors were being very loud again. Whatever it was, it didn't allow me to sleep until 3:00 in the morning.
