The class that Shuuichi and Rantarou shared was a lively one. There was always an event happening everyday to the point that one would get torn from being really annoyed or laughing. Shuuichi was walking in the halls, trying to make it in time for his class until he heard a sudden yell:
"GIVE ME BACK MY PINS YOU FILTHY CUM TOILET!"
As Shuuichi entered the class, he saw his classmate, Miu Iruma, holding her hand above her head. It was hard to see but he noticed three, small, white pins were hiding in the crevices of her fingers. "Fuckin' try me gremlin!" She exclaimed as she kept her fingers up in the air. Her bright blue eyes shined with mischief, as she watched Kokichi jump at her with his short stature in satisfaction. "I need those for my maniacal schemes!" Kokichi exclaimed but Miu let out a loud laugh. "What schemes?! Lock picking boys gym lockers to look at their waistband sizes?!" She said with a mocking tone. But Kokichi only sighed in frustration.
"Hey! I used those pins to help Amami-Chan give his probable boyfriend, Saihara-Chan, his hat back!" Kokichi said in a tone of defense.
Wait, what?
That was too much for Shuuichi to take in. Did Kokichi really go though his locker, let alone his gym locker? It made sense why Rantarou had his hat but still! He immediately hid his red hot face at Kokichi's bold statement. It didn't help that he was rather loud too, Shuuichi sometimes wondered how a large voice fit in such a small body. Nonetheless, the words echoed through his mind. It was especially embarrassing since he spent the last weekend watching a movie with Rantarou. If word of that got out, his classmates would not let him live! He wanted to run away so bad but if he did that, they'd probably notice that he heard them in the first place.
"You want me to try you, huh?" Kokichi replied and before everyone knew it. He jumped.
He started to climb Miu.
"Hey! the hell are you doing?! You know people will get the wrong idea with you climbing a hot busty girl like me!" Miu responded, trying to hide her shock with a smirk. She wasn't exactly wrong. She had a nice curvy figure with beautiful strawberry blonde hair.
But Kokichi didn't care, he clinged onto her clothes like a sloth on a tree. He was close to her breasts before he made a few more futile reaches at her hand. At the third try, he managed to pry open her fingers and take back the three white pins. He jumped off with a ear to ear smirk, not breaking eye contact from Miu. He put on the three pins in his hair with a prideful triumph. Another one of their classmates, Korekiyo Shinguji, clapped his hands.
"Kukuku.. well done, Ouma-san, how truly bold." He praised with a small laugh as he continued to lightly clap his bandaged hands together. Kokichi grinned as he absorbed the praise. On the other hand, Gonta Gokuhara, stared in baffled shock. "Wait Ouma climbed Iruma? But how?" He asked, unable to grasp the sight he just saw. "Nishishi! It was magic Gonta!" Kokichi replied, his pins now securely in place. Miu let out an irritated huff.
"That's my line, thief!" From the corner was the voice of Himiko Yumeno, who was a strong believer in magic and viewed herself as a mage. "Oh yeah? You can't stop meeee!" Kokichi exclaimed with a smirk. "Yeah I can! I'll shut you up with my muting spell!" Himiko exclaimed but Kokichi let out a laugh.
"Hey will you guys quiet down?" Shuuichi turned his head to see Rantarou at the doorway, clearly looking a little annoyed at the noise everyone else made. "Oh hi Amami-Chan!" Kokichi turned around to Rantarou in glee. Shuuichi took his face out of his hands and greeted Rantarou too. "Woow! Look! Saihara-Chan's face is as red as a tomato~! Was it because Amami-Chan walked in~?" Kokichi teased, taking a good look at Shuuichi's face, causing Shuuichi to tense up.
"No it's probably because he heard you earlier." Kiibo stated, rebutting Kokichi's former claim. "W-Wait What?" Shuuichi asked, trying not to prove Kiibo's point. "No offense Saihara-kun, but I noticed you right when you walked in, my system can easily detect you." Kiibo responded. Of course, there was no way to fool a robot. "Yeah I noticed Sherlock homo too!" Miu chimed in, further proving Kiibo's point. But did she really have to call him that? "Atua can sense anyone's presence." Angie Yonaga said with a serene tone, closing her eyes and clasping her hands together. Now this was just getting ridiculous.
"Guys leave him alone, I wasn't here for the claim but whatever it is, just let it go!" Rantarou suddenly said, the annoyance was creeping up in his voice. "Y'know how you weren't here for the claim, do you want to hear what it was?" Kokichi looked at Rantarou with a mischievous grin. "I'd rather not." Rantarou plainly responded. He knew it'd be embarrassing, especially from the look on Shuuichi's face.
"It basically was that you two probably fucked!" Miu suddenly yelled with a huge grin on her face. "N-nooo that's even worse..!" Shuuichi groaned when he hid his face again. Kokichi looked confused but he went with it. "Ah, who knew you two already performed the lovely ritual of intimacy." Korekiyo held himself and trembled as he said it. "Ah! the beauty of humanity..!" He suddenly said, holding out his arms, like he was embracing some sort of large, mighty being in the sky. "No! Stop that! T-that's not it at all!" Rantarou exclaimed, trying to shut everyone up. "Ew! Stop talking about degenerate males doing degenerate things!" The bold voice and speech pattern could only belong to Tenko Chabashira. "Now now, Atua doesn't approve of this, that kind of information should stay in private spaces." Angie suddenly looked grim and her sweet looking face almost looked intimidating.
"Oh my god. I said that me and Saihara are. Not. Like. That! We're not even in a relationship!" Rantarou exclaimed, losing his calm composure. "Y-Yeah we're just friends..!" Shuuichi tried to add some input since he didn't want Rantarou to go alone in the battlefield.
"Suuure that's what they all say, than you find them fucking in the bathroom!" Miu exclaimed, spitting out the words like gum, it was surprising how she could yell such indecent things like it was nothing. "Atua doesn't approve of public sodomy." Angie continued, her voice strict and she was waving her finger. This kept getting worse.
"Ughh I'm getting a headache.." Himiko said in her dreary voice as she kept hearing the constant arguments. This did it for Tenko, considering that she held Himiko really close to her heart.
"Shut up! Your disgusting conversations is giving poor Himiko a headache!" She exclaimed while she held the petite redhead close to her. Everyone immediately quieted down, even Miu shook in complete submission. Kokichi than boldly let out a little laugh. "Y'know Iruma-Chan is telling a big ol' lie! I said 'probable boyfriends' but she twisted my words and now everyone kept treating it like they had sex. It's actually pretty funny!" Kokichi said to himself. "So you're telling me this is all your fault?!" Rantarou said to Kokichi in a accusing tone. "Yeah, kinda, maybe." Kokichi replied. It wasn't entirely his fault but the blame was still partially on him. "I said enough!" Tenko yelled again, resting her case.
That was only the start of it, as the next classes went, more ensued.
Shuuichi was working alone since he did not have this class with Rantarou. He was simply working through the worksheet with no problem at all then he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around the saw the face of Tsumugi Shirogane. Shuuichi tried not to gulp, she was the second most eccentric one in their grade, Korekiyo being first of course. Her blue eyes sparkled through her glasses with an innocent light. "Hey Saihara-kun, is it true that you and Amami-kun are in a relationship?" She asked with a pretty big smile. "N-no! O-of course not!" Shuuichi replied, trying not to blush. Of course she'd say this, Tsumugi caught up with gossip fairly easy, especially if it's relationship based. "Really? Are you sure about that? Not even an ounce of romantic feelings?" Her voice now sounded disappointed. "Aw I even started to draw a little bit of fanart.." she sighed to herself and Shuuichi tensed up.
She what?!
This is not real! He didn't even want to ask her about it! He just prayed internally that she'd just leave him alone but no, she kept going. "But you're so perfect together! You're the cute submissive one and Amami-kun is the more handsome and dominant one! It works so well!" She then kept rambling about 'semes' and 'ukes', it was extremely uncomfortable.
"Shirogane-san, please calm yourself, you are causing a disruption." Said a mature and polite voice.
Shuuichi could feel the wave of relief when Kirumi Toujo had spoken up. Of course, her gentle and mature voice is able to calm anyone down and diffuse any out-of-hand situations. "I do not mean to be rude but I ask you to please quiet down, Saihara-san needs some space." She said again, speaking ever so formally. "Yes of course! Ehe, sorry Saihara-kun I got a little out of control." Tsumugi finished her sentence with a nervous laugh. Shuuichi turned over to Kirumi. "T-thank you so much, Toujo-san.." he said to her and she let out a soft and formal smile. "You're very welcome. It's my duty as a maid to maintain peace and soothe others." She replied. After a while, Shuuichi could feel at ease until class ended and he was able to run like hell.
Tsumugi really was the absolute worst when it came to relationship rumors, even worse than Miu! He sworn he was going to die if Kirumi hadn't stopped her.
When Shuuichi and Rantarou met up by the school exit, they contemplated on whenever or not they should walk home together. They usually wouldn't be concerned about walking home together but lately with how everyone has been acting, it's becoming a concern. "Saihara, do you still want to walk together?" Rantarou asked as Shuuichi looked away. With everyone's embarrassing words, he had a hard time looking at Rantarou. He didn't like being alone but he didn't want to be embarrassed either. But really,
He didn't like being alone.
"Yeah, let's walk together.."
