Kiyo started following Kei and the class C group 'I don't like this' Kiyo thought to himself 'Wait where did they go?' Kiyo lost sight of the group for a while before turning a corner to here something
'Is that.... Crying?' Kiyo heard crying and when he turned the corner he saw Kei being bullied by the girls from class C "Aww, Is she crying? No way! You've been bullied before haven't you?" One of the girls said
Kiyo walked out from the spot that he was watching from confronting the group "What's going on here?" He asked in his regular monotone voice, Kei looked at Kiyo for a moment before turning away "We were just hanging out with Karuizawa'' one of the group members said "Oh well if thats the case you wouldn't mind if I called a teacher down here would you?" Kiyo asked the group
With that question the class C girls knew it was time to leave, but before they left they seemed to have whispered something to Kei. After The girls left the hallway and were out of sight Kiyo walked up to Kei who was wiping tears away
"Hey" Kiyo said with his regular voice, but before the conversation could go on any longer Kei got up and ran away from the hallway 'Well I guess im not getting an explanation' Kiyo thought to himself as he watched Kei leave his sight
After that whole ordeal Kiyo knew exactly what he was going to do, sleep. After a good afternoon's rest Kiyo got up to use the bathroom, but he stumbled upon two people talking "Come on Hirata, do something" It was Kei and Hirata 'They seem to be talking about what happened earlier' Kiyo analyzed
"I can't do anything Karuizawa, you know that I always try to stay neutral. I can ask them to stop or report it to a teacher but I can't do anything else" Hirata stated "And you're supposed to be a man?" Kei said leaving the area were they were talking angry
"Well that was something" Kiyo said walking out of his hiding spot "Huh?! A-ayanokouji-kun what are you doing here?" Hirata asked in a nervous tone "It's fine Hirata, I already know you guys aren't dating" Kiyo stated "I see, well I guess I couldn't hide it forever" Hirata said with a sigh. After that exchange Hirata filled Kiyo in on what had happened and why they had faked a relationship
"Thanks Ayanokouji-kun" Hirata said "For what, I haven't done anything" Kiyo questioned "Ah, It's just that it was good to get that off of my chest, I don't like keeping secrets" Hirata said answering Kiyos question "Well I'll leave it there by Ayanokouji-kun" Hirata said as he left
'Well there's that half of the story, now it's time to get the other half' Kiyo thought to himself looking for answers. Kiyo went the way Kei did looking around and even tried looking for her in her room, but everywhere he looked she wasn't there, so Kiyo came to a conclusion
*Sigh*
'Looks like she's in trouble again' Kiyo thought as he started searching faster. I took a while but eventually Kiyo had found her at the lower floors of the ship and, as expected, the bullies were there too. Being as lazy as he is, especially after all the searching he did, took out his phone and started recording the bullying and a few minutes after he arrived they had left
'Only minor injuries and no visible bruising, looks like these people are professionals' Kiyo analyzed. After his analysis Kiyo walked down the stairs and walked towards Kei "You look rough" Kiyo said catching Kei's attention "W-what are you doing here?" Kei asked in a rough and depressed voice "Nothing I just went looking for you, seems like they got to you again" Kiyo stated
"I don't want to talk about it" Kei said "come on, get up" Kiyo said holding out his hand to Kei, she accepted the hand, but as soon as she got up Kiyo lifted her shirt "That's a pretty bad scar" Kiyo said but before he could do anything else, he caught Kei's hand preventing him from getting slapped "H-how did you know about t-that?!" Kei asked Kiyo
Well he didn't really know if anything was there at all, it was just a guess "When you were being bullied you always kept a hand on your shirt, I thought you must've kept it there for a reason" Kiyo stated "Well, now that I know this, Is there anything else your hiding?" Kiyo added
Kei shook her head "What are you gonna do now that you know this?" Kei asked in an anxious tone "I don't know, I could tell everyone" At this sentence Kei tensed up "Or...... I could help you" Kiyo said finishing the sentence, and with it Kei saw a little hope for herself for the first time
"And why would you do that?" Kei asked Kiyo being a little hesitant "Well" Kiyo stared at Kei's legs "Y-you can't be serious right?" Kei started regretting her question 'B-but if he can help me it would make things easier' Kei thought to herself as she started to move her skirt up "Woah woah, chill out. Close your legs, I meant free lap pillow" Kiyo stated
With that Kei started furiously blushing turning red entirely "O-oh" Kei couldn't utter any other word 'God, what did she think I wanted?' Kiyo thought to himself "Well, you don't have to worry about those class C girls anymore" Kiyo said as he pulled out his phone and showed the video that he had taken earlier
"If they try anything again show them this video and they should stop, and if they don't then show this video to a teacher" Kiyo told Kei what to do incase she gets bullied again "Hey Ayanokouji-kun, thanks" Kei said "No problem, also I got a question" Kiyo responded "what is it? Kei asked
"Your the VIP aren't you?" Kiyo asked Kei
(Sorry about the delay, exams suck. I only have two more and I'm finished with exams, so I should go back to the regular schedule and maybe even start a new book ;) until then sorry for the delays)
