"Yuhi-san, don't laugh at me."

Yuhi chuckled. "I just find you cute when you cry." He patted her back. "Are you okay?"

Sumire deeply sighed. "I read some unsettling news on the net again. I know rumors are just rumors, but why don't people leave me alone?"

Rumors? Yuhi frowned. "I will get Hino to take care of it, don't worry about anything. Just focus on your comeback."

"Well, alright." She pulled some documents from her bag and started to read.

Yuhi silently watched her for a few minutes. "Is there anything else you want to talk to me about?"

"Anything else?" Sumire trailed off. "There is actually. If I want to kiss you, can I do it, or do I have to make the atmosphere, right?"

What is she talking about now? Since yesterday, it feels like she is messing with him more? But if she wants to kiss, then why would he complain? He likes kissing too. Yuhi wrapped his arms around her and pushed her down until she laid down on the roof.

For a moment, he only stared. There was something prettier about her today. "Did you put some makeup on?" Yuhi finally noticed. He thought there was something strange. Her lips looked more luscious than normal.

"Yes, do you like it?"

She does look prettier, but he prefers her natural look. Yuhi brought his lips to her ear and told her that. Sumire laughed softly, and he looked away. "Well, that's that- so--"

Yuhi pressed his thumbs across her lips. "Let's kiss."

For the next few minutes, they do nothing but kiss or rather make out heavily. Yuhi does not realize how passionate it got until he hears a beautiful sound through their lips. It seems like he won't be able to hold back eventually. Sumire is beautiful -- and she gets prettier as each day passes by.

He recalled that serious talk they had and sighed deeply. What was he thinking acting like a gentleman for? He already touched her twice, isn't it too late to say such fancy-sounding words? Still, Yuhi understood that he wouldn't be able to do it.

What Sumire needs right now is somebody who can heal her. Somebody who can help ease her mental scars and pain. He is no better than her and is emotionally weak at times.

A hum of approval escaped his lips when he felt her hands run through his chest. She eventually broke their lips apart. "Yuhi-san, what about class?"

"That was only the first bell." He kissed behind her ear.

"Mm, I don't think we are that far from the classroom, either."

Yuhi chuckled. It seems like he isn't the only one who wants to skip class. Yuhi kissed her forehead gently and held her hands. "A bit more? Tell me if it is too much."

Her gaze softened. "Alright."

..

"Hey, Sumire."

"Yes--" Yuhi swooped down and kissed her cheeks. "Yuhi.."

"If you do change your mind, tell me." He mumbled. "I know I said all that stuff to act cool, but I want to hold you. I am serious about that."

At that comment, a pained smile appeared on her face. "Right, mmm. I will make sure to tell you. We should go to class now. We are late, but I have a good excuse."

"Excuse?"

"Mm. Nakara-sensei gave me this pass. He said I could use it whenever we have leads on the investigation that require me to go out."

His sweat fell. "So, you're using him?"

Sumire laughed. "Well, he was the one who offered, and I don't want you to get in trouble, Yuhi-san."

"Hm, I see." Yuhi trailed off and thanked her by kissing her lips again. He does feel bad for Shin, but one less rival is good for him. The two of hem exited the stairwell and eventually arrived at the corridor.

He wonders what is going on in her head right now. "Ah--! There's a piano?"

Yuhi looked at the direction she pointed at and spotted a half-open room. It was one of the old storage rooms; indeed, he could see a piano at the corner. It was an old upright piano but a piano nonetheless. How odd, he hasn't seen that here before. But then again it is impossible to know about every room in the school.

"Want to continue skiving?"

Sumire laughed. "If your okay with that, Yuhi-san."

Yuhi nodded. It was a stupid question to ask, of course, he would be okay skipping. It is not like attending class will help him. Besides, he wants to spend a bit more time today. The two of them enter the room, and Yuhi closed the door.

He watched as Sumire walked over to the piano. "Can you use it?"

"Mm, it's old, but it is well maintained."

A well-maintained piano in the art building? Now that is strange. He should speak to the president about this later.

"Say Yuhi-san, do you think I am cruel?"

"Cruel?"

Sumire nodded. "Yes, cruel. You see, I cant forgive it when somebody deliberately harms me. I end up with twisted thoughts. I want to see those people break down. I want them to suffer just as much. But such thoughts are too cruel. Many things in this world happen unintentionally. Just because one person causes you pain, it does not mean everybody else will do the same. But I cant forgive can't."

Yuhi could sense the bitterness in her tone. After this, he should check out those new rumors on the net. No matter how strong she is, words can be a double-edged sword. It can harm and break somebody down. What did she read?

She lightly touched the piano keys, not playing. "I think humans are cruel creatures. No matter how kind a person is on the surface, there is a monster inside them in the end of the day. This monster will emerge when their normal world turns upside down. When the things they know are no longer the same. If society evolves and evolved humans with supernatural powers emerge, what will happen to the normal people? Will they accept this?" Sumire sighed. "It's obvious what will happen. A riot, a massacre, humanity as we know it will be on the verge of collapsing."
