  1. Part I (1/17/16):
  2. Oh wow, high school... really takes me back to how brash I used to be
  3.  
  4. >be a transfer student from a mainly human filled school to one with an even distribution of mamono and human students
  5. >parents thought I should be more [spoiler]CULTURALLY COMPETENT[/spoiler]
  6. >like I really care about that type of stuff anyways
  7. >the only thing that really kept me going was the endless supply of [spoiler]chinese[/spoiler] cartoons and comics that the internet provided
  8. >didn't even talk to anyone back in my old school so going to another school seems like a drag
  9.  
  10. >it's my first day at this school
  11. >hallways were about 3 times as wide as the hallways at my old school
  12. >probably to make up for the *cough cough* [spoiler]larger students[/spoiler] *cough cough*
  13. >as soon as I thought that a centaur tramples right past me, knocking me over to the side causing me to bump into something head first
  14. >the centaur looks back as she slows down and realizes what she's done
  15. >"ah, I'm s-...."
  16. >at that moment, her face shifted from apologetic to pure terror
  17. >she quickly galloped out of sight around the corner from vision
  18. >rubbing my head, I wonder what that was about
  19. >more importantly, it felt more like I hit a steel wall....
  20. >wait a second
  21. >I slowly turn to face the supposed wall I hit to face a body of crimson
  22. >"OI! Who do you think you're running into?"
  23. >I slowly lift my head to get a look at her face, noticing that she was slightly taller than me by a couple of inches
  24. >she had 2 short, protruding horns from her forehead that stuck out about 3 inches
  25. >above that she had short, brownish gray hair that made her look tomboyish
  26. >"OI! Are you listening to me!?"
  27. >she grabbed me by both my shoulders and shook me violently
  28. >feeling dizzy, I look into her amber eyes causing her to stop the shaking
  29. >"I-I-I'm Anon. I'm the new transfer student. Today is my first day here."
  30. >the oni smirks
  31. >"Eh~ Is that so..."
  32. >her smirk turns into a full blown toothy smile
  33. >"Welcome to our school [spoiler]:D[/spoiler]!"
  34. >I sigh in relief
  35. >this could've gotten a lot worse
  36. >"T-thank y-"
  37. >she waves her hand to cut me off
  38. >"Soo... where's you're admission fee?"
  39. >wat.jpg
  40. >"What do you me-"
  41. >she quickly extends her arm and squeezes my left shoulder, sending a sharp pain through my body that causes me to collapse on the ground
  42. >"AHH!"
  43. >I hold my shoulder with my right hand, hoping the pain with subside and suddenly noticing the hallways are empty
  44. >aw man, just my luck running into someone like this on my first day
  45. >she slowly kneels down to my body and whispers in my ear
  46. >"You see... I run this school around here. Make sure not to forget that~!"
  47. >the bell rings [spoiler]thank God, holy shit[/spoiler]
  48. >she gets up on her feet and turns away from me
  49. >"The name is Akki by the way. Make sure you bring me something to eat by 11 PM sharp today or else!"
  50. >she slowly walks off to go to her first period class with a snicker
  51. >while the pain in my arm is finally subsiding, the pain in my heart is approaching like a storm
  52. >tears streaming down my face, I hit the ground in frustration
  53.  
  54. Just wait Akki! I'll get you back for this!
  55.  
  56. Part II (1/18/16):
  57. >>130353
  58.  
  59. >I pick myself up and trudge along to my first period class
  60. >the halls are completely empty since classes have started by now
  61. >oh boy, I really didn't want to stick out at this school
  62. >cursing under my breath, I open the door to the geometry class
  63.  
  64. >as I entered the door, it seems like I was interrupting everyone's conversation because the room got silent the moment I walked in
  65. >"Ehem, who might you be?"
  66. >I turned to see an older man writing down the pythagorean theorem up on the board
  67. >he turned his head to face me
  68. >the first thing I noticed, was his bushy, grey mustache that oozed with manliness
  69. >"I'm the new transfer student, Anon."
  70. >he extended his hand and shook mine with firmness and a warm smile on his face
  71. >"Oh nice to meet you, Anon. I'll overlook your tardiness since it's your first day but make sure you show up on time next time."
  72. >my heart lightens to know that I'm not in trouble
  73. >"T-thank you, Mr..."
  74. >he extends his arm to point over to an empty seat in the last row
  75. >"Wright. You can take the seat there in the back"
  76. >as I head down the rows of desks, I hear whispers between the other students
  77. >"Hey look, so that's the new kid"
  78. >"Hmm~... Doesn't look anything special"
  79. >"Yeah, I saw him getting into some trouble earlier"
  80. >"I heard that he's already been claimed by Akki"
  81. >I sit down at my desk and put my hands over my head
  82. >there's no way, right?
  83. >to be claimed so quickly, by a bully like her?
  84. >a shiver shot up my spine as I could only hear the whispers coming from the other students' mouths
  85. >the voices trail along and cloud my mind, filling my head with dread
  86. >"Anon..?"
  87. >the sweet voice snapped me back into reality, a light in the darkness
  88. >the turn to see who called my name
  89. >it was none other than the centaur from this morning
  90. >I swear something inside me ignited, causing my blood to boil
  91. >"IT'S YOU!"
  92. >whoops, I said that too loudly
  93. >everyone in class looked back at me including Mr. Wright
  94. >"Anon, are you feeling alright? We're in the middle of class right now."
  95. >I feel the blood rush to my face
  96. >"Oh no, sorry. My bad."
  97. >the lesson then resumes as there is about 25 or so minutes left in class
  98. >I suddenly feel something thin poke me in the arm
  99. >it's a sheet of paper with something written on it
  100. >I look up to see the centaur girl smile meekly at me
  101. >I take the paper from her hands so Mr.Wright doesn't notice and started reading the message
  102.  
  103. >"I'm sorry about what happened earlier. I hope you can forgive me. Btw, my name is Lilly"
  104. >heh, I hastily start scribbling text to respond
  105. >"Whatever, it doesn't really matter anymore. What's done is done."
  106. >she gives me a pouty look
  107. >"I really mean it Anon. I may have run away back then, but I'll take full responsibility."
  108. >hmm
  109. >"Really, it's okay, but if you feel bad, tell me about Akki and I'll forgive you completely."
  110. >she's sighs in relief and happily jots down her next message
  111.  
  112. "Well, as you experienced earlier, she's extremely aggressive and she gets into fights very often with the other aggressive students and always ends up winning against every encounter; however, unlike the other oni that I've seen, she's pretty solitary and I think she isolates herself with her over the top behavior, so I don't think she has many, if any friends. Earlier though, I think this is the first time she's ever picked on a human male. She typically only goes after other girls who are strong."
  113.  
  114. >the bell rings as I read the last sentence of her note
  115. >I get out of my seat with backpack and note in hand with new found determination
  116. >"Thank you, Lilly. I'll talk to you later."
  117. >I walk out of the door to my other class while Lilly waves me goodbye
  118. >Gym next, huh?
  119. >the class is straight down the hall, and entering the door was that shade of crimson I recognized
  120. >shit, she's gonna be in my gym class?
  121. My body was [spoiler]not[/spoiler] ready for this!
  122.  
  123. Part III (1/19/16):
  124. >>130533
  125.  
  126. >when her body is completely inside the room and out of sight, I shiver in anticipation
  127. >I can feel back of my t shirt beginning to get drenched in sweat upon my back
  128. >my heart feels like it's going to beat out of my chest as start to shake
  129. >Oh man, what am I going to do?
  130. >I wait outside the entrance to the gym, looking through the slit in the door to scout the area
  131. >Akki is sitting over in the corner on a bench by herself while the other few students that were there talked amongst each other
  132. >not good
  133. >if I go in now, she'll notice me immediately
  134. >...
  135.  
  136. >I wait a couple of minutes for an opportunity and alas! My salvation is finally here!
  137. >it was a group of about 6 guys walking towards the gym door
  138. >"Aw shit dude, that game was sick last night!"
  139. >"I know right!?"
  140. >looks like they're talking about something; maybe they won't notice if I slip in behind them
  141. >they all opened the door and went in the gym 1 at a time while continuing their conversation
  142. >I finally entered in last noticing how huge the gym was even with it moderately filled with students already
  143. >must be to accommodate for the mamono, huh
  144. >I look to see if Akki has noticed me, but to my success, she doesn't seem to be paying attention [spoiler]MISSION COMPLETE[/spoiler]
  145. >I continue walking with the group of guys to the opposite corner of the gym and one of them noticed my presence
  146. >"Oh, what's up? Never seen you around before. You must be new."
  147. >oh shit, I looked around to see if anyone heard him cause the openness of the gym caused his voice to travel a little
  148. >seems, like everyone is too engaged in their own conversation
  149. >"Y-yeah, I'm new here. My name's Anon."
  150. >he extended his arm and we shook hands
  151. >"So, are you hiding from someone? You were pretty close to us there."
  152. >goddammit, just let me blend in with you guys without any trouble
  153. >"Y-yeah, sorry."
  154. >they all chuckled a little, making my heart jump cause the other students started to notice
  155. >I turned my back so they couldn't see my face
  156. >"Hey dude, don't sweat it. Since you're new, you can stick with us for a little bit, but whoever you're hiding from will notice eventually."
  157. >I looked at him with a shudder
  158. >"Why d-do you say that?"
  159. >he points his thumb at his nose
  160. >"Smell. Mamono can track the scent of their prey to hunt him down, especially in gym class because the sweat you produce will amplify your stench, making you irresistible."
  161. >wow, I never thought of that; I should be careful not to overdo it
  162. >wait a second
  163. >I feel my back and it's soaked as shit
  164. >I turn my head slowly back to the bench
  165. >Akki was staring me straight in the eyes with a huge smile on her face
  166. [spoiler]Fuck[/spoiler]
  167.  
  168. >I feel a large slap on my back, ow
  169. >"Good luck, Anon. She's a wild one"
  170. >all the guys burst out in laughter
  171. >what a bunch of assholes
  172. >Akki waved me over with an intense look in her eyes
  173. >my body moved towards her involuntarily probably due to the fear of disobeying
  174. >I plop my body on the bench right next to her, shivering
  175. >"Hey buddy! How was you're first period class? I missed you so much already!"
  176. >I murmured trying not to piss myself
  177. >"I-it was good, I guess."
  178. >"That's nice to hear~. You ready to have some fun? Gym is my favorite class."
  179. >she slings her arm around my shoulder and pulls me near her tightly
  180. >I struggle to scoot away from her a little, which was a terrible idea
  181. >she pulled me in even closer and squeezed my arm with the force of 10 gorillas
  182. >"AHH"
  183. >my body locks in pain as I slowly slump over into Akki's body
  184. >her skin is soft and tender so I could ignore pain in my arm more easily
  185. >yet when I get a closer look, underneath the red surface is lean muscle that's not too bulky but you could tell that her body was well defined
  186. >she takes both her arms and wraps it around me, which surprised me since she was rough before
  187. >she tilts her head down and sinks her nose into my hair, tickling my scalp
  188. >"Anon, you smell pretty good."
  189. >she held me for a few seconds before she realized what she was doing
  190. >her eyes opened up wide with her face became an extremely dark shade of red
  191. >she hastily pushed me away, causing me to fall of the bench onto the wooden gym floor
  192.  
  193. >suddenly a loud whistle blew with a booming voice following after
  194. >"ALRIGHT! Everyone start up light jog inside the gym!"
  195. >Akki picks me up by my arm and gets me on my feet with a child-like grin
  196. >"Come on Anon, let's go!"
  197.  
  198. [spoiler]Oh boy, this is going to be a long class[/spoiler]  
  199.  
  200. Part IV (1/21/16):
  201. >>131044
  202.  
  203. >everyone in the gym started up a light jog
  204. >the humans and mamono with [spoiler]normal legs[/spoiler] ran on the outside edge while the other ones stuck closer to the center
  205. >probably to protect their tails/legs from getting in the way or being stepped on
  206. >I jogged along the walls of the gym to prevent being trampled by the other students who were more in shape than I was
  207. >however, Akki jogged right behind me the whole time regardless even though she could easily pass by me at any time
  208. >we've been jogging for about a minute and I'm already starting to get tired
  209. >I look back at Akki with a tired expression
  210. >"Akki, you can go on ahead if I'm slowing you down"
  211. >She smiles at me wryly
  212. >"Okay, if you say so"
  213. >phew, she's finally gonna leave me alo-....
  214. >FLOP FLOP FLOP
  215. >damn it, she's stepping on the back of my shoes!
  216. >I turn back around and she's trying to hold back her laughter
  217. >"pff~"
  218. >"Akki, please! Stop being such a- OH"
  219. >I launch forward, head first into the wooden gym floor detached from my shoes
  220. >"Whoops, ha ha"
  221. >the other students run past me while looking back and trying to hold back their laughter
  222. >man, not again; this girl only gives me trouble
  223. >"HEY YOU THERE! QUIT SLACKING OFF!"
  224. >oh, it's the gym teacher
  225. >"Anon, come on, we have to keep moving"
  226. >she extends her arm with a warm smile on her face
  227. >oh sweet, she must feel guilty now
  228. >I reach out to grab her hand
  229. >"Thanks Akki"
  230. >ZAP
  231. >"HNNG, ow"
  232. >I tried to yank my hand from hers, but her grip was crushing my hand and something was sending a shock through my body
  233. >she pulled me up with a whoosh and let go of my hand revealing a hand zapper
  234. >"Heh, got you good, didn't I Anon?~"
  235. >she snickers, then rotates me to the correct orientation
  236. >"Break time is over Anon. Now get moving!"
  237. >she kicks me in my back to get me going
  238. >"Don't need to tell me twice!"
  239. >I rub my back while picking up the pace to continue with the rest of the class
  240. >looking back I see a pleased look on Akki's face
  241.  
  242. >10 minutes later, the gym teacher gathers us toward the center of the gym
  243. >"Get with a partner and lets get stretching starting with our legs!"
  244. >get a partner? [spoiler]shit[/spoiler]
  245. >I look to find a human male and see one several feet from me
  246. >I start to wave and move towards him
  247. >"Hey! Want to buddy u-"
  248. >YANK
  249. >I suddenly get pulled by my left arm and fall on my back sliding to see my adversary above me with crossed arms
  250. >"Anon, what do you think you're doing?"
  251. >damn it, leave me alone for once
  252. >"N-nothing. Just... you know?"
  253. >she doesn't look pleased
  254. >"No, I don't know. Lets start, shall we?"
  255. >she sits down right in front of me and puts her feet inside the gap created by my legs
  256. >"Huh?"
  257. >she then spreads her legs slowly causing the gap in mine to grow bigger and bigger causing the tension to build
  258. >"HNNG"
  259. >Akki shakes her head with a sigh
  260. >"That's no good Anon. You gotta build up that flexibility. No wonder, you're so tense all the time... I can help you out that you know~"
  261. >wut
  262. >"W-what do you mean, 'help me out?'"
  263. >an evil grin suddenly stretches across her face
  264. >"LIKE THIS! HORA!"
  265. >her legs suddenly jolted apart causing mine to be perfectly horizontal
  266. >"AHH"
  267. >oh my god, the pain is unbearable
  268. >the tears start to build up in my eyes as my body shakes in reaction to pain
  269. >"AKKI, WHY!?"
  270. >she then reaches out and caress my cheek with her hand
  271. >her hand was very soft and warm making me completely ignore my pain
  272. >she looked straight into my eyes with a loving look on her face
  273. >"That's it Anon. Just look at me. We're going to get through this together."
  274. >I did just that for the remainder of the stretches and it went by like a breeze
  275. >what is it with this girl?
  276.  
  277. >a loud whistle blew signalling the end of our stretching
  278. >"Alright everyone! Come pick up your jersey and split up into two teams. Time for some Dodgeball!"
  279. >dodgeball, huh?
  280. >everyone was getting rallied up and the gym almost became it's own little stadium
  281. >with Akki supporting me, there's no way our team will lose
  282. >I pick up a blue jersey and put it over my torso and look around for Akki
  283. >wait, where'd she go?
  284. >I look at all the different faces that the blue team had but I couldn't find her, so I checked the other team, scanning their faces...
  285. >And there she was!
  286. >she waved to me without restraint and picked up a ball from the floor
  287. >[spoiler]welp, I guess my life was well lived. I regret nothing[/spoiler]
  288. >she then cupped her hands like a megaphone and shouted amongst all the voices in the gym
  289. >"I hope my feelings reaches you from way over here~!"
  290. >what?
  291. >I couldn't hear her; there were way too many people talking in the gym so I just shrugged it off
  292. >a loud whistle blow indicated the start of the match
  293. >I locked eyes with Akki cause she must be up to something
  294. >she then took the ball in her hand and kissed it...
  295. >what the hell is she doing? [spoiler]kek[/spoiler]
  296. >then a flicker in her eyes caused me to freeze in place
  297. >shit, she's aiming for me! I gotta pick up a ball or else!
  298. >I bent over to grab a ball, but the ball had left her hand already!
  299. >it spiraled through the air, slicing through the air silently closing in to my lowered head
  300. >the balls smacks me right on my cheek causing it to explode with a loud pop
  301. >I flew backwards and slid across the floor, spinning on my way to the wall
  302. >everyone paused their ball throwing to look at my mangled body
  303. >the gym then filled with laughter, which was quickly interrupted by the stern voice of the teacher
  304. >"AKKI! What did I tell you about limiting your strength?"
  305. >she scratched her head and shrugged
  306. >"My bad [spoiler]:P[/spoiler]"
  307. >I was out, but the game continued for another 15 minutes while I sat against the wall, trying to cool down my cheek with my cold hand
  308.  
  309. >suddenly the school bell rang, signaling the next period
  310. >I looked down at my watch; it was 10:45
  311. >I then looked back up and Akki was already in front of me
  312. >"Hey, don't forget the promise. 11 AM sharp" [spoiler]shit, I said PM in my earlier post. my bad guys[/spoiler]
  313. >oh crap, I completely forgot
  314. >"Y-yeah... I'll be right there. I got to go to the bathroom real quick though"
  315. >Akki then stuck her tongue out at me cutely
  316. >"Okay~! Don't keep me waiting too long! I'll be in the courtyard waiting for you then~!"
  317. >she then walks off out of the gym and fades into the crowd of students outside
  318. >I wait a couple of minutes in the gym for all the students to exit
  319. >...
  320. >Ha, she thinks she can order me around after all the stuff she did to me? Screw this!
  321. >I walked outside using the emergency exit sneakily with my bag over my shoulder, sighing in relief
  322. >I walk along the backside of the school, trying to find a place to eat my food in peace, but it seems like today just isn't my lucky day
  323. >in front of a dumpster are 2 orc girls smoking cigarettes
  324. >one of them locks eyes with me immediately
  325. >"Hey, you there! You didn't see shit!"
  326. >she walks up to me pulls the collar of my shirt menacingly to get a closer look at me
  327. >"Oh look! What do we have here? You must be the new kid that everyone's talking about! Akki's boytoy!"
  328. >oh crap
  329. >"You know, Akki has given us a lot of trouble in the past. Maybe it's time for us to pay her back for what she did to us"
  330. [spoiler]I guess this is it then? Already getting fucked up on my first day of school, great![/spoiler]

  332. Part V (1/24/16):
  333. >>132006
  334.  
  335. >the orc girl flicked away her cigarette and suddenly kneed me in the stomach, causing me a gasp and fall to my knees
  336. >"ACK"
  337. >I spit out on the ground, holding my stomach in pain
  338. >Jeez, what a kick
  339. >she grabs my hair and pulls my head up to look me in the eyes while her snout-like nose is inches from my face
  340. >"Hmm, down already? How pathetic."
  341. >she takes her other hand and smashes me in the nose with her fist
  342. >I jerk back making my head hit the pavement as my nose starts to drip with blood
  343. >"Wow, I can't believe someone like you was chosen by Akki."
  344. >she slowly walks over to my body and crouches then waves her friend over, who was still smoking and leaning against the wall
  345. >"You see... Akki has really given us a beating in the past, but we still acknowledge that she's still too strong for us to take on so..."
  346. >she slowly caresses my torso with her hands, which sent a jolt of uneasiness through my body
  347. >"Since you're here, we may have a chance at revenge after all."
  348. >she moves her hand down towards the front of my shorts with a smug look on her face
  349. >I slap her hand away swiftly and scoot my body backwards while holding my nose as the blood began to profusely spill
  350. >I finally hit the wall with my back and try to stand back up, but a swift kick to my shin caused me to slump down in pain
  351. >she then took her leg and continuously kicked me in my stomach, which each blow feeling my I'm getting slammed with a reinforced steel pipe
  352. >"You stupid asshole. How dare you try to resist me? Know your place!"
  353. >she then takes the cigarette from her friend's fingers
  354. >"I'll forgive you for now if you stick out your hand"
  355. >I put my hands behind my back in resistance but instantly regretted my decision
  356. >"Still resisting, huh? You got a lot of fight in ya, I'll give you that, but there's a time and place for everything"
  357. >she hits me in the throat causing me gag, which she uses the opportunity to swiftly grab the tongue from my mouth
  358. >"You could've prevented this"
  359. >she takes the still lit cigarette and presses the burning tip directly on my tongue
  360. >the ash broke off from the cigarette, which I accidentally swallowed from inhaling due to the pain
  361. >coughing violently as my throat is coated in ash, my eyes start to water up
  362. >why? why is this happening to me? who is Akki really? what did I do to deserve this? what are they planning on doing to me?  
  363. >why am I so powerless?
  364. > I feel so ashamed
  365. >"Aw, you're not putting up a fight anymore? I was just beginning to have fun... Oh well. Time for the best part!"
  366. >she slips her fingers into my pants and shifts them down my legs revealing my boxers
  367. >I don't even try to resist anymore at this point; she's too strong and there's nothing I can do
  368. >she then takes her hand and reaches inside my boxers and grabbed my man-sausage with the grip of an ape
  369. >so this is how I lose my virginity, huh?
  370.  
  371. >"HEY YOU THERE! What's going on over there!?"
  372. >I hear a loud, but familiar voice
  373. >I squint in the distance to see who it was.... and ah!
  374. >It's Mr. Wright sprinting over here
  375. >"Oh shit! We got to go! I can't afford another suspension, so let's get outta here!"
  376. >she removes her hand from my crotch and flees from the scene and looking back with one last glance
  377. >"Don't think this is over yet! We'll continue this later~"
  378. >as they left my vision, Mr. Wright finally reaches me with an exasperated look on his face
  379. >"Hey Anon. Are you alright? Do you know the names of those orcs?"
  380. >I begin to pull my pants up in embarrassment
  381. >"Y-yeah *cough* I'm fine. I have no idea who they are though."
  382. >I use the wall to prop myself up one more time as my knees shake from the blows to my stomach and shin start to take its toll on me
  383. >"By the way, what are you doing out here?"
  384. >he offers a hand to assist me in getting up
  385. >"I left my lunch in the car. Lucky I forgot my lunch out here today too ha!"
  386. >he gives a hearty laugh, but becomes serious again
  387. >"Are you sure you're alright Anon? I could look into the case and help give those girls the disciplinary action necessary."
  388. >"Sorry Mr. Wright. This is something I have to deal with on my own. I'm too weak, and I'm sure a situation like this will come up again."
  389. >he gives me a look of concern but eventually understands
  390. >"I see. You can talk to me about it anytime. Don't feel ashamed or anything about asking for help with anything."
  391. >Mr. Wright walks off to the parking lot and we exchange our goodbyes
  392. >I look down at my watch and see that it's 11:05
  393. >maybe if I head back in, I can tell Akki-
  394. >a wave of guilt hits me
  395. >I can't tell her what happened today; she'll definitely be upset about this
  396. >besides, I need the strength to deal with my own issues
  397. >I head back inside the gym door that I came out of
  398. >There aren't any students in here, so I can here eat in peace, and if someone messes with me, there should be cameras to identify them
  399. >I take out the ham and cheese sandwich I made for lunch and unwrap it from its ziploc bag
  400. >I lean down to take a bite, but I begin to choke up with tears streaming down my cheeks
  401. >I hold my arms around my legs and shake as the built up emotions get the better of me
  402. >SLAM
  403. >the entrance to the gym door opened wide as a recognizable red figure stood in the doorway
  404.  
  405. >"Anon! Where the hell were you?"
  406. >please
  407. >she started storming towards me; each footstep echoing in the gym and sent waves of grief in my mind
  408. >"I thought you used the bathroom! I was waiting for you in the courtyard."
  409. >please stop
  410. >"Anon, what's wrong? Why aren't you answering me?"
  411. >she finally reached where I was and her angry face turned into a solemn one
  412. >"Wait a minute. What happened to you? Are you alright? You don't look so good."
  413. >I turned my head away from her in shame and offer my food to her
  414. >"You're hungry right? Here, have my sandwich. I'm not really hungry today."
  415. >I handed over my lunch to her, but she didn't take it
  416. >"No, it's okay Anon. I'm more concerned about you. Did something happen while I was gone?"
  417. >she suddenly grabbed me and sniffed me intently
  418. >"Hmm, tobacco? I didn't smell that on you earlier, and I didn't think you were a smoker..."
  419. >in frustration, I pushed her away, but realized what I was doing
  420. > "Sorry, I didn't mean-. No, I just want to be left alone."
  421. >her face started to scrunch up and she started to shake
  422. >"Anon? Why won't you tell me anything?"
  423. >she looked as if she were going to cry, which surprised me cause she's usually thick headed and demanding so this is a surprising change
  424. >it feels wrong man
  425. >"I'm sorry Akki. I'm gonna go home. I don't feel so good."
  426. >Akki gently smiles at me
  427. >"Okay Anon, I understand, but if you're going to leave, let me give you my number."
  428. >She takes out the phone from her pocket to insure she gets my number as well
  429. >we exchange numbers and I turn to head out the emergency exit once again but her voice stopped me briefly
  430. >"Anon, you can talk to me if you need anything. I'll always be here for you, don't forget that!"
  431. >I close the door behind me leaving the gym and the vibration in my pockets startles me
  432. >I take a look and read that Akki has sent me a message
  433. >"I love you, Anon"
  434. >the text hits me with a pain in my chest
  435. >why? she's too good for someone like me!
  436. >I hit the wall causing the skin on my fist to break
  437.  
  438. >I walk away from the school and wander down the street aimlessly and reflect on the events that took place
  439. >if anything is obvious, it's that I'm too weak
  440. >I want to become stronger...No, I NEED to become stronger
  441. >I'm sick of being laughed at and treated like a powerless rag doll
  442. >continuing down a road, I notice the sound booming strikes
  443. >what is that?
  444. >I find the source is coming from a ragged building with boarded windows
  445. >I take a peek inside, and its filled with beefy men equipped with red boxing gloves
  446. >one guy is in there punching the bags, another is jumping rope, some weight lifting
  447. >I looked in awe
  448. >"Man, I wish I could become strong too..."
  449. >cough cough
  450. >I look over and I see a smaller, older man next to me with a cheeky grin on his face
  451. >"Hmm, what do we have here? Want to try it out!?"
  452. >He nudged me with his walking stick to provoke me
  453. >"Heh, heh. I know you want to try! I can see the determination in your eyes!"
  454. >he took out a business card from coat pocket and handed it to me
  455. >"If you're too busy today, you can come back later. Just call the number and we can get you all set up!"
  456. >he stuck his thumb out at me in reassurance
  457. >"M-maybe. I'll think about it. I do have to get going though. See you old man!"
  458. >I quickly run off and avoid anymore conversation
  459. >whew that was a close one; I'm not in the mood for this anyways
  460.  
  461. >I head home and plunk myself in my bed and looked up at my ceiling
  462. >man what an shitty day! I'm just going to do what I do best, nothing
  463. >as the images of today fly through my head, I feel the uneasiness build up in my chest
  464. >I stayed home for the rest of the day skipping the rest of my classes and Akki sending me an occasional text asking if I was okay
  465. >"Boxing, huh?"
  466.

  470.  
  471. >BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
  472. >my alarm goes off loudly signaling the start of another day
  473. >I eat a quick breakfast and head out to go to school
  474. >hopefully the teachers won't be too mad at me for skipping the second half of classes yesterday
  475. >while I walk, I think about the events that took place yesterday and decided that it's a new day, so things should hopefully go differently
  476. >however, I couldn't shake off the uneasiness of being assaulted by the orcs
  477. >I make my way to the front gates of the school and sighed
  478. >breathe in, breathe out; everything is going to be alright
  479. >as I step forward to make my way to the door, I felt a sudden tug on my arm and was pulled to the side with a great force
  480. >I was then embraced tightly between two arms and was pressed up against a soft body
  481. >"Good morning, Anon! You walked right by me without even noticing me... Oh well! I got your attention now!"
  482. >the voice was filled with joy causing me to be filled with a wave of relief
  483. >I slowly look up at her smiling, red face with her short hair falling over her 2 horns that protruded from her head
  484. >"Good morning Akki."
  485. >she released me and backed up jollily with her hands behind her back
  486. >"I know I sent you a couple of texts, but are you doing alright, Anon?"
  487. >wow, she's still worried about me
  488. >"Yeah, I'm alright now... thanks to you."
  489. >she hit me on the shoulder playfully, or at least attempted to make it seem that way but it sure hurt
  490. >"Oh~ You're just saying that! Don't tease me, Anon! I haven't even done anything!"
  491. >she is right though; she hasn't done anything since all she did was talk to me...
  492. >"I'm telling the truth though. When you're around, I feel more at ease for some reason. Come on, let's head inside"
  493. >I start heading inside the door while Akki stood outside briefly before catching up with me with her hands trying to cover her face
  494. >"I-I'll see you in gym class, dork~!"
  495. >she runs off flustered, bumping into a couple of students on her way to her first class
  496. >you know, she's not as bad as I made her out to be when I first bumped into her
  497. >I went inside the geometry class where I was greeted with a friendly smile by Mr. Wright
  498. >Lily, the centaur, waved at me with a warm look
  499. >"Good morning, Anon"
  500. >hmm, maybe today will be a better day
  501.  
  502. >class was boring and long as expect but ended faster than I imagined
  503. >the bell rang and everyone got up to go to their next class as I stretched from my grogginess
  504. >time for gym, I guess
  505. >I grabbed my bag and got up out of my seat to leave, but a delicate hand pulled on the back of my shirt
  506. >"Um Anon"
  507. >I looked back and saw Lily's delicate face looking as if she's bothered by something
  508. >"Hey Lily, what's up?"
  509. >she twiddled her thumbs a little and looked away sheepishly
  510. >"You haven't really talked to me this period. Are you upset still?"
  511. >heh, she's still thinking about that?
  512. >"Nah, not at all Lily. I told you that I forgave you when you told me about Akki, so don't worry about it."
  513. >she looked back at me innocently
  514. >"Oh okay. I was hoping to be your friend, but I wasn't sure if you were still mad or not..."
  515. >oh I see
  516. >"Hey, don't sweat it. In my book, we're already friends. I gotta go though or else Akki will get upset. See you later!"
  517.  
  518. >I left the room with bag in hand waving back at Lily, but as I left the door, I immediately hit something causing me to close my eyes and flinch
  519. >oh boy, Akki must've been waiting for me again!
  520. >"HEY! Who do you think you are!? Oh... it's you~"
  521. >that voice
  522. >it's unsettling and fills me with terror
  523. >I slowly open my eyes to see a green, tusked figure; my tormentor from yesterday but it doesn't seem like her friend is with her right now
  524. >"Hmm, want to go for round 2?"
  525. >she pulls me in close and drags me away from the door quickly and takes me over against a row of lockers
  526. >"You little shit! You got off lucky last time. Today you won't be as lucky!"
  527. >she pushes me up against the lockers with her arm pushing me against the locker while she leans in to whisper in my ear
  528. >"Why don't we get to business right now?"
  529. >she swiftly punches me in the stomach causing me to spit
  530. >I slump over on her shoulder and see the passerby quickly hurry away to avoid getting involved
  531. >assholes... every single one of them
  532. >she then pushes me off of her and swings her arm to hook me in the jaw making to fall over sideways onto the ground
  533. >man, I thought things would be different today too
  534. >she then kicks me repeatedly in the stomach like yesterday
  535.  
  536. >suddenly she stopped the barrage and looked down the hallway
  537. >"Pick yourself up and get that pathetic look off of yer face. We'll continue this during lunch like yesterday. Don't be late or you're dead!"
  538. >I pull myself up against the lockers and realized that a certain oni came running down the halls towards us
  539. >"Hey Anon, I came to pick you up so we can go to gym class together... Wait a sec. Hilda, is that you?"
  540. >Hilda? So that's her name, huh?
  541. >"Yeah Akki. I was just here introducing myself to your boyfriend here. I know we've had our differences in the past, but hopefully we can get past that and move on to better things."
  542. >this cunt, I can't believe her
  543. >"B-boyfriend? We aren't like that... yet."
  544. >Akki gets flustered and grabs my hand
  545. >"W-well anyways, we have to get going. Class is about to start in a couple of minutes. Come on, Anon!"
  546. >she takes me by the hand and leads me away from Hilda and I look back at her to see an evil grin upon her face
  547. >"Don't forget what we talked about, Anon."
  548. >jeez, I just can't get a break from all this
  549. >we make our way towards the gym door and Akki looks at me with giddiness
  550. >"You ready, Anon?"
  551. >"Yeah... whatever, lets do this"
  552.  
  553. Part VII (1/30/16):
  554. >>135890
  555.  
  556. >we made our way into the gym that was decently filled with the other students having their own conversations
  557. >Akki took me to sit on the same benches as yesterday; I guess this is "her" bench
  558. >"Ah, it's nice to be with you again. First period was really long and boring."
  559. >she faced me and grinned widely, taking the weight off of my heart
  560. >"By the way Anon... I didn't know you were friends with Hilda. She's a violent one, ha ha!"
  561. >I could feel myself tense up as the I begin to sweat especially in my hand which was still being held by Akki
  562. >"O-oh, is that right? I d-didn't know that."
  563. >Akki sees right through me as I stutter and look away from her
  564. >her grip on my hand becomes tighter as if she were slowly trying to crush my hand into a fine powder
  565. >"Anon! What's your relationship with her? How did you two meet?"
  566. >oh no, she's starting to catch on; I can't let her know the truth or she'd definitely would be upset
  567. >"I ran into her on my way to this class yesterday, and she wanted to meet me since she heard about 'us'"
  568. >as I spit out that half-assed lie, I feel a wave of regret, but Akki eases her grip on my hand and smiles at me
  569. >"Oh I see. That's good then. Hopefully we can all get along this year since she apologized. Who knows~"
  570. >oh man, I hope I don't have to see that orc anymore that would suck
  571. >actually, I think it's about time that I stop taking shit from her; I'm not going to have her walk over me all year
  572. >[spoiler]equal rights, equal fights after all[/spoiler]
  573. >I start to shake in anticipation as I become more and more motivated
  574. >"Akki, you know what? I'm going to take this gym class seriously after all!"
  575. >she looked surprised but nods nevertheless
  576. >"That's great, Anon... Did something change? It seems like you weren't the type of person to like gym."
  577. >a loud whistle blow interrupted our little conversation to signal the short jog
  578. >she's completely right; I don't necessarily enjoy gym, but I need to build myself up if I ever want a chance against Hilda
  579.  
  580. >I jog right next to Akki, pushing myself to continue jogging no matter how much my throat burns
  581. >sweat coats my whole body in a magnificent sheen and my shirt is notably soaked near my armpits and back
  582. >I struggle as my legs began to feel like lead as each step I stretch out to take feels as if it could shatter the wooden floor
  583. >I look over at Akki to see her in fine condition since this is probably child's play to her
  584. >she looks over and pats my sweaty back with a quick smack that sent a slight pain down my spine
  585. >"Keep it up Anon! You're doing great!"
  586. >I feel myself become filled with more and more energy as her words help propel my legs forward until the teacher blows the whistle to start the stretching
  587. >I gasp for air as I sit down to stretch out my legs
  588. >as I reach for my toes, my hamstrings send a tingle up my leg showing how out of shape I am
  589. >finishing the hamstring stretch, Akki puts her legs between mine again
  590. >"Are you ready, Anon?"
  591. >I'm ready for anything
  592. >"Let's do this shit!"
  593. >she slowly widens her legs, pushing mine apart making the tension in my groin hurt more and more
  594. >I look up at her sweet face to take my mind away from the pain
  595. >she sticks out her tongue and reaches her arm out to pinch my cheek
  596. >"Heh heh. Anon, you're really handsome~"
  597. >we did the rest of our stretches like a breeze
  598. >the whistle blew again signaling the recreation time; looks like it's basketball this time
  599. >meh, not much of a fan but whatever
  600. >Akki and I decided to be on the same team this time and we threw some balls around
  601. >[spoiler]nothing interesting really happened for the rest of class[/spoiler]
  602.  
  603. >the ball rang as I was gulping down water from the fountain in the gym for 30 seconds but was yanked from my shirt collar, pulling me away from the fountain
  604. >"Jeez, can't you wait?"
  605. >Akki dips her head down to take a drink too
  606. >whatever, I guess I've been hogging the water
  607. >Akki rises up and stretches her arms up
  608. >"Anon, that sure was a fun period today. I enjoyed it a lot. Lets go get something to eat."
  609. >wait a second
  610. >"S-sorry Akki, I ca-"
  611. >she suddenly grabs my hand tightly and begins taking to towards the gym entrance
  612. >"You can, right? Let's. Eat. Together."
  613. >her grip becomes tighter like a scolding parent at a grocery store
  614. >she must still be worried about what happened yesterday
  615. >"Okay, okay. I get it. Loosen the grip, will ya?"
  616. >her grip did not loosen at all as we head out of the gym to the cafeteria
  617. >she ordered got a slice of pizza and I ordered one as well even though I made my own lunch [spoiler]shit[/spoiler]
  618. >I was then dragged to the courtyard and we both sat under a tree, cooling us in the shade
  619. >she begins to eat without a word; she just ate and looked at me occasionally and I did the same
  620. >there was nothing really to talk about, but it felt nice just to be next to her
  621. >it crossed my mind that Hilda must be pissed, but I was instantly relieved when I saw Akki's calm expression
  622. >I should be fine as long as I'm with Akki, right?

  626.  
  627. >lunch is coming to an end as Akki and I finish eating
  628. >I lay back and look up into the sky to get one last breather before I'm faced with the cruelties of life once again
  629. >"Man, I wish this moment could last forever..."
  630. >whoops, did I say that out loud?
  631. >I look over to my red companion to see her face light up and a smile plastered across her face
  632. >"D-do you really feel that way, Anon?"
  633. >she leaned in closer, inches away from my face
  634. >I feel the blood rush towards my face as I'm in a somewhat vulnerable position
  635. >"I... uh"
  636. >my mind goes blank as I feel her warm breath gently tickles my lips
  637. >"I've been thinking all gym class about what Hilda said... and-"
  638. >she swallows and looks away timidly then looks back at me
  639. >"I'd like to know what you think about it"
  640. >oh god, this is happening all so fast; it's only my second day and things are moving at this pace
  641. >she then slowly leans back down onto me and quickly pecks my lips
  642. >I move my arms out from my side and try to create a little space between us so I can talk
  643. >"I, uh. Uhh. I'll think about it!"
  644. >I quickly stood up and made a bee line towards the door that goes inside the school interior but stopped at the door
  645. >Akki's gave me flustered expression that was mixed with a touch of despondence  
  646. >aw man
  647. >I waved at her and shouted with cupped hands
  648. >"AKKI, I'LL TALK TO YOU LATER OKAY?"
  649. >her brief sadness was interrupted by my words, and she gave me a toothy grin and waved back shyly
  650. >I headed towards my next class with every step creating a feeling of elation in my chest
  651. >holy shit, what just happened? It all happened too fast
  652. >I pinched myself to check if I was still alive, and to my surprise I was!
  653. [spoiler]I went to the rest of classes I skipped from yesterday, but I didn't miss much so I was fine. They were boring and uninteresting since I didn't know anyone in any of the classes, but I was constantly reminded of the warmth of Akki's kiss race up my spine from time to time[/spoiler]
  654.  
  655. >the bell rang ending my second day of classes
  656. >you know what? It wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be.
  657. >I walk out of the main entrance to head home, but I find Hilda waiting on a bench, scanning the passerby's
  658. >oh shit, I completely forgot; she must be pissed
  659. >I walk near a group of people, trying to conceal my presence, but to no avail
  660. >she looks me in the eyes with a ferocity of a demon out for blood
  661. >"HEY YOU PUNK! DON'T THINK YOU'LL GET OFF SO EASY!"
  662. >she jumped up from the bench she was sitting on and started sprinting towards me
  663. >crap crap crap
  664. >I started to run too, pushing my way through the other students
  665. >I turned around to see that she was struggling her way through the students and I took my opportunity to escape down the streets that I explored yesterday
  666. >Hilda broke through the crowd of students and came straight for me at a higher speed
  667. >there's no way I can outrun her; it was only a matter of time before she'll catch up
  668. >I took a quick detour through some guy's property and hopped the fence and treaded through his nicely cut grass in his backyard and made a sharp turn to jump the fence to get back to the front of his house on the other side
  669. >my sudden movements threw off Hilda because as I reentered the front of the house, she was just now hopping the fence to get to the backyard
  670. >I took the opportunity to hastily make my way down the street before she figured out what happened
  671. >pop pop pop
  672. >what's that noise? Sounds like it's coming from a building...
  673. >I look over to see the boxing gym from yesterday is right beside me
  674. >I then turned to see Hilda just now hopping the fence in confusion
  675. >oh boy, better hide
  676. >I enter inside of the boxing gym and hug the wall to wait until Hilda passes by
  677. >she sprints down the street, not noticing that she passed the window I was next to
  678. >ha, that's what you get, bitch!
  679. >wiping the sweat off my face, I turn to see 7 or so men staring at me
  680. >how am I going to explain this one?
  681. >"Hi, uh. I'm Anon. I'm not here to hide from anyone of anything, ha ha! I'm here to join!"
  682. >as I spit out my lie, I see the old man from yesterday make his way out of his office to confront me
  683. >"Oh hey there. It's you again. So you were interested after all?"
  684. >uh oh, my lie is coming full circle
  685. >"N-no, I just-."
  686. >he threw a pair of red mitts at me and I quickly snatched them out of the air
  687. >"Yeah yeah. Here, let me show you how to properly punch."

  693. >"Now boy, let me show you. Close your fist and have your thumb overlap your index and middle finger like this."
  694. >the old man grabbed my hand and moved my thumb in the position he was looking for
  695. >"Hah, yes. Very good! Now let's see you take a swing at one of the bags."
  696. >he pushes me over to one of the many punching bags that are hanging from a chain attached to a pole overhead
  697. >"Now give it a good hit, boy! Show me what you got!"
  698. >I clench my fist tighter and pull my arm back in preparation
  699. >this is for all the shit you put me through Hilda!
  700. >stepping forward, I throw my whole weight at the bag before me along with my fist, sending the bag forward with my body staggering forward due to lack to balance
  701. >the bag then swings back and knocks me on my back
  702. >the old man gives a hearty laugh and offers a hand to assist me back on my feet
  703. >"It's been a while, but let me show you how it's done."
  704. >he puts up a standard, textbook fighting pose
  705. >"A punch is a lot more than just using your arm, sonny."
  706. >he takes in a deep breath
  707. >his foot shifts forward quickly with his waist twisting in unison as his arm extends out towards the bag
  708. >POW
  709. >a nice, meaty sounds echoes throughout the gym
  710. >he then looks at me and smiles
  711. >"See what I mean? Not only does your arm extend outwards, but you have to pay attention to your legs and waist to bring more impact to your punch while allowing you to throw another one. Now let's see you try that again."
  712. >ah, I see; he explanation was simple, yet his demonstration stuck with me
  713. >I replicated his form and went through the motions step-by-step
  714. >I step forward, twist my hips, and extend my arm with a properly closed fist
  715. >POW
  716. >ahh, feels satisfying
  717. >I look over at the old man and see a spark in his eyes and a jolly expression across his face
  718. >"You're a natural, kid. You picked up on it so fast. Here, let me show you some more punches."
  719.  
  720. >we spend a good hour or so throwing punches at a bag in various different ways
  721. >jabs, hooks, uppercuts, and various other punches were taught to me, and I absorbed them all
  722. >sure they lacked power due to my out of shape body, but I could easily emulate the style
  723. >speaking of which, my arms were feeling extremely heavy and I was getting more and more tired as he showed me new techniques
  724. >despite that, the pain was secondary to my feelings of pure glee
  725. >"So what do you say... emm. What did you say your name was again, boy?"
  726. >"My name is Anon, old man. You know, boxing is a lot more fun than I thought it was going to be."
  727. >he slaps me on my back suddenly causing it to sting
  728. >"Oho, I knew I saw something within you. Let's get you all set up in the gym. My name isn't old man though, it's Mr. Smith. There's usually a teacher here that can walk you through everything, but he shows up on the weekends."
  729. >we go into his office and fill out all the paperwork necessary
  730. >looks like I'll be coming here Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays
  731. >hmm, I've never felt this much hype before; I usually don't have anything going on, so this should be a great change to my life
  732. >I leave the gym to see that the sun is setting over the horizon
  733. >the redness of the sky reminds me of Akki
  734. >I wonder how she feels about boxing...
  735. >I walk back to my house with her in mind and take in a nice breath of fresh air
  736. >when I arrive home, I shower and lay in my bed, feeling content in the change of pace
  737. >I grab my phone that was placed on the table next to my bed and turn it on, only to feel a wave of uneasiness
  738. >15 New Messages From Akki
  739. >oh shit, I wasn't paying attention
  740. >Akki: Hey Anon! Want to walk home together~
  741. >Akki: Are you mad at me because of what happened at lunch
  742. >Akki: Where are you Anon? I can't find you anywhere.
  743. >Akki: Anon, are you okay? Is someone messing with you again?
  744. >Akki: Please text me back, Anon. I'm worried about you.
  745. >it just keeps going on and on
  746. >I quickly respond back
  747. >Anon: Yeah, I'm doing fine. I got a little sidetracked and didn't see your messages, sorry. I'm not mad at you or anything, ha ha. I'm about to go to bed right now though.
  748. >there, that should be fine; I put down my phone on the table, but then it vibrated as soon as it left my hands so I picked it back up in a hurry
  749. >Akki: Can I come over?
  750.  
  751. Part X (2/7/16):
  752. >>139034
  753.  
  754. >oh crap, this is the first time a girl ever wanted to come over
  755. >Anon: Sure you can I guess. I live on 123 Easy Street. I've got the house with the rose bushes in the front, you can't miss it. I'll leave the door unlocked for you.
  756. >Akki: 123 Easy Street... we live on the same street!?
  757. >huh, that's weird; all the times I've been here, I've never seen Akki around in this neighborhood
  758. >I shrug and head up the stairs to reach the door, but before I got there...
  759. >DING DONG
  760. >whoa, that was quick
  761. >"Hold on, I'll be right there."
  762. >I twist the lock and creak open the door with a deep breath and there she was
  763. >she was dressed in long, purple pajama bottoms and a simple t-shirt with a billiard ball with a 9 on it, but instead of yellow, it was light blue
  764. >wait a second... 9 ball? There's no way she's a fan right... it's probably just a weird coincidence and she probably just likes pool or something
  765. >"Hey Aaaaanon, my eyes are up here you know?"
  766. >her slurred words broke my concentration as I realized I was staring at her chest this whole time
  767. >"Oh, ha ha! My bad! Come on in, Akki."
  768. >I open the door for her and she walked in and took a look around with a child-like curiosity
  769. >"So Akki, did you want to talk or something?"
  770. >she finishes surveying the house as I close the door behind me
  771. >"No. Not rrrrreally. Show me around will ya?"
  772. >dang it, I thought she needed something; it'll be too rude to kick her out since she just got here, but I really wanted to play some games before I went to bed
  773. >"Yeah sure."
  774. >I went through the kitchen, bathroom, and family room with her and we arrived at the stairs to head to the basement
  775. >"A-actually on second thought, I haven't cleaned up at all so we ca-"
  776. >she pushes me out on the way with a slump and makes her way down the stairs
  777. >"Whaaat are you worried about, Anon? You showed mmme everything else. Might as well show me your room too."
  778. >jeez, she's extremely pushy, isn't she? Also, she's slurring a lot for some reason. I wonder why
  779. >I head down after her to see her exuberant expression as she shuffles through my shelf stacked with various PlayStation games
  780. >"Anon! I didn't know you had so many games."
  781. >come on now, be careful with those; it took a couple of years to build myself up my library
  782. >she takes Katamari Damacy off the shelf and hands me the disk from within its case
  783. >"Oh Anon, I love this game! I want to play Aaanon, come on!"
  784. >I take the disk and insert it into the PS2, handing the controller to Akki as she plops down on the couch across from the flat screen TV
  785. >eh, I guess if she just wanted to play games I guess that's fine
  786. >I begin to head towards me room, but my hand was suddenly gripped and pulled back towards the couch
  787. >"Wwwait Anon, where are you going? I'm just about to get started!"
  788.  
  789. >she yanks me with the force that lifts me off and ground, and slamming me into my couch head first
  790. >"Ow"
  791. >I attempt to rearrange my positioning on the couch, but caught myself off balance and ended up leaning into her body
  792. >"Aw, c'mere you~"
  793. >she pulls me in closer, wrapping her right arm around my body while still holding onto the controller
  794. >wait a second... that stench; she must've been drinking! No wonder she's slurring so much.
  795. >meh, I guess oni's are known for their love of sake so I'm not really surprised, but at the same time, we're still in high school...
  796. >oh well, she does what she wants I guess
  797. >she then rests her cheek down on my head and sighs
  798. >"It's nice to be next to you, Anon. I ffffeel at ease when I'm with you. I'm sure you heard that I used to fight a lot, but now it seems like there's no need to anymore, ya know?
  799. >I rest into her warm body and watch her roll up household object in the game
  800. >man, what a comfy game
  801. >I feel myself starting to drift off a little and I start to notice she's starting to miss more and more objects overtime
  802. >her body slowly shifts her weight on me as she begins to nod off
  803. >"W-wait, Akki! You should probably go home. You're getting pretty sleepy, and I am too. We got school tomorrow after all."
  804. >she puts a finger on my lips to silence me
  805. >"It's okay, Anon. It doesn't matter. I live like 5 houses down anyways."
  806. >she then takes a blanket that was placed next to the arm of the couch and wraps both of us underneath the fabric and smiles at me
  807. >"Here, warm enough for you?"
  808. >I nodded silently and leaned into her body as she struggles to play the game
  809. >I guess I'll close my eyes a little bit
  810. >...
  811. >!
  812. >uh-oh, I turn my head to look at a nearby clock to see that it is 2:13 AM
  813. >crap, how long have I been asleep, I should go back to my r-
  814. >I attempt to move my body, but I am held down tightly by a certain red oni
  815. >both of her arms embrace me like a giant teddy bear as her leg crosses intersects mine as I am pushed up against the couch horizontally with her body being on the outer side
  816. >her face, only a few inches from mine, is soft, and delicate and she breathes in and out as she continues to sleep regardless
  817. >I try to slip out of her grip by moving slowly downwards, but her interjected leg keeps me from continuing
  818. >"mmf"
  819. >the grip tightens around my body as Akki sinks deeper into sleep
  820. >guess there's no fighting it, eh?
  821. >I sink deeper into her warm body and embrace the comfort she provides
  822. >I lean forward and plant a kiss on her cheek
  823. >slowly, but surely, I drifted off to sleep again
  824.  
  825. Part XI (2/9/15):
  826. >>139766
  827.  
  828. >"Anon, get up you fool!"
  829. >huh?
  830. >"Anon! Come on, we're gonna be late!"
  831. >...what?
  832. >I slowly open my eyes to see Akki shaking me violently
  833. >"Whoa, what's going on..? Oh yeah that's right."
  834. >jeez, I still can't believe she stayed over last night; at least I got to get comfy
  835. >I look over at the clock in the room and holy shit! It's 20 minutes past the time my alarm is usually set!
  836. >oh shit, gotta get moving
  837. >I stand up from the couch, but I start to shake and my bones start popping from the weird positioning on the couch
  838. >I take some steps towards my room and notice my whole body hurts all over
  839. >my legs are shaking violently with each step and my arms feel heavy and sluggish
  840. >I reach out to open the door and shocks are sent through my arm from extending it
  841. >wow, I must have overdid it yesterday, huh
  842. >I quickly throw on some jeans and a t-shirt and look over to see Akki coming inside the room, realizing that I didn't shut the door
  843. >"W-what are you doing?"
  844. >she scratches her head with her bedridden hair
  845. >"My house is in the opposite direction of the school, and I'll be too late if I go back now, so I'm gonna need some clothes to wear today..."
  846. >[spoiler]wat.jpg[/spoiler]
  847. >"W-whatever. Just get something out of my closet-"
  848. >she starts digging through my dirty laundry basket placed at the foot of my bed and pulled out a pair of grey sweat pants
  849. >"Okay, this'll do just fine~. I'll just wear my Cirino shirt since I already have it on."
  850. >she starts taking off her pajama bottoms and throwing it in my dirty laundry basket, revealing her black panties temporarily
  851. >"Jeez Akki. You could at least go in the living room to change you know?"
  852. >she snickers mischievously as she pulls up my sweat pants
  853. >"What are you so afraid of Anon..? Afraid of a little skin, huh?"
  854. >oh man, it's morning and I'm already starting to sweat
  855. >"Agh, whatever. I gotta brush my teeth and take a piss really quick and we can leave."
  856. >I make my way upstairs with my backpack over my shoulders and made sure to close the door behind me this time
  857. >phew, finally a little privacy... or so I thought
  858.  
  859. >as I flush my piss down the toilet, I make my way to the sink to start brushing my teeth, but the knocks on the door startled me
  860. >"Hey Anon. I gotta take a piss too you know. Come on, hurry up!"
  861. >jeez, I just got in here; I started to brush more quickly but the door opened up behind me
  862. >fuck me, I left it unlocked
  863. >she came barging in and took and sat on the toilet seat and started to pull the sweat pants down
  864. >"Akki please-"
  865. >the sounds of the liquid leaving her sent a shiver down my spine as I turn the other direction to finish brushing
  866. >when she finished I spit out the grime from my mouth and gargled and all that good stuff, but Akki suddenly grabbed the toothbrush from my hand and started applying toothpaste to it
  867. >"Wait, what are you doing?"
  868. >"What does it look like I'm doing? I'm about to brush my teeth. I left my toothbrush at home so yours will have to do for now."
  869. >come on man, at least wash it off first-
  870. >she insert my brush into her mouth and starts brushing as if it was her own making me gag slightly
  871. >"Girl... Akki, I've never met anyone like you jeez. Come on, we gotta go."
  872. >she finishes her brushing with a spit down the sink and a quick glance at me to view my reaction
  873. >"Heh, it's almost like we're married, huh Anon?"
  874. >"Y-yeah, w-whatever Akki"
  875. >I rush out of the front door to avoid anymore of my objects to get "contaminated" by her
  876. >she soon came after and followed closely behind me as we start running towards the school
  877.  
  878. >we finally arrive at the school 5 minutes before class starts
  879. >my legs start wobbling around and my lungs feeling like they are about to implode from the constant sprinting
  880. >"Hah, hah, hah... we made it"
  881. >the last bit of students are scurrying to make it inside and I look over to Akki who put her fist out at me
  882. >I reciprocated and our fist bump was complete
  883. >today is going to be a good day; I can feel it!
  884. >"Alright Anon, my class is a little further down than were yours is. I'll come pick you up so we can walk to gym together again"
  885. >she quickly grabs me by the shoulders and pulls me into for a quick peck on the lips
  886. >"I had fun last night! We should do it again soon. See you later!"
  887. >she ran off down the halls to her class and I begin to approach mine
  888. >I entered the room and although all the seats were filled, I was still here on time
  889. >I make my way to my seat and sigh in relief
  890. >time for day 3
  891.  
  892. Part XII (2/12/16):
  893. >>140840
  894.  
  895. >I slouched in my chair and pull out my notebook out of my bag in preparation for class
  896. >the bell rang, starting the first period class
  897. >all that chaos in the morning turned out alright I guess
  898. >"...Good morning, Anon."
  899. >huh, who was that?
  900. >I look over to see Lily looking at me with her blue eyes as if she needed something
  901. >"Oh hey, Lily. What's going on?"
  902. >I've been pretty distracted lately so I forgot about Lily completely even though she's the one that got me into this mess
  903. >"Nothing really, Anon. So... how's it going with Akki? "
  904. >whoa, that question came out of nowhere
  905. >"Uh, it's been good, I think."
  906. >I go back to my notebook and start writing the notes that Mr. Wright was putting on the board
  907. >5 minutes passed, and I feel a tug on my shirt and a whisper
  908. >"So Anon, what do you think of her?"
  909. >she's still on that?
  910. >"She uh... She's alright. Being around her is nice I guess."
  911. >I got back to my notes, but she tugs once again but more firmly
  912. >"So uhh Anon, have you uh... done it yet or..?
  913. >my patience is running out
  914. >"WHAT DO YOU WANT? JEEZ!"
  915. >...
  916. >the whole class looks back at me, as well as Mr. Wright who stops writing and raises an eyebrow at me
  917. >"Anon, come see me after class."
  918. >fuck
  919. >Lily looked at me with solemn eyes and her fuzzy ears drooped down
  920. >"I'm so sorry, Anon. I didn't mean to. It seems like every time we talk you always get into some sort of trouble."
  921. >yeah, no shit
  922. >"Why do you want to hear so much about me and Akki?"
  923. >she shifts around a bit showing that she her discomfort
  924. >"Well... I'm a little concerned. She is an oni after all. A demon. I think you should be more careful."
  925. >something about her statement threw me off a little
  926. >"A demon..? I know she's a little pushy but still..."
  927. >she gave me a sharp look that seemed to cut through into my soul
  928. >"You don't seem to understand, Anon. I've seen some indescribable things that would change your outlook of her. You are better off without her."
  929. >what?
  930. >where is this coming from? I don't understand at all; why would she say something like that?
  931. >"Why Lily? I don't understand."
  932. >"If you continue to be with her, you will see soon enough."
  933. >the bell rings, cutting our conversation short with questions swirling around in my head
  934. >Lily gets up and leaves the room as I made my way to Mr. Wright to receive my stern lecture
  935.  
  936. >I wait next to Mr. Wright at the front of the room as the last bit of students sneered as they left the room to give us a bit of privacy
  937. >he finishes erasing his notes on the board as he begins to talk
  938. >"You know why I called you here, right?"
  939. >I stand up straight and give him my full attention to hopefully lessen the punishment
  940. >"Yes sir."
  941. >he looks back at me with a warm smile as his bushy, grey mustache slightly perking up along the corners of his mouth
  942. >"Make sure it doesn't happen again. By the way, make sure to get some proper gloves and shoes for Saturday"
  943. >what's he on about?
  944. >"Gloves and shoes? What do you mean? There isn't any school on Saturday... is there?
  945. >he gives a hearty laugh and pats my shoulder
  946. >"You'll know soon enough. I'll see you later, Anon. I wouldn't want you to be late to your next class, ha ha."
  947. >"See you later, Mr. Wright!"
  948. >I left the class feeling a wave of relief, knowing that I wasn't didn't have to face a detention or something
  949. >I look around to see if Akki was here yet, but I guess she's running a little late
  950. >suddenly I was tugged by the loop on the top of my backpack and landed flat on my back with my eyes closed
  951. >slowly opening my eyes, revealed a wretched tusk figure; my tormentor from these past 3 days
  952. >"How's it going, Anon? I was very lonely during lunch yesterday. Hope you can make that up to me during lunch today~"
  953. >she picked up my already sore body and put me on my feet while grabbing the collar of my shirt, leaning in to whisper into my ear
  954. >"You think you can just ignore me? You must think I'm some sort of pushover, huh?"
  955. >she quickly punches me in the stomach to knock the air out of me, but then pulls my head back up and locks eyes with me
  956. >"You think Akki is always going to be around to protect your sorry ass?"
  957. >she knees me in my side
  958. >"You might as well just give in. You belong to me now!"
  959. >ha ha, you have to be kidding; I'm not anyone's bitch!
  960. >I contract my neck muscles and sent a wad on spit to her cheek in retaliation
  961. >the fury that built within her slowly showed in her facial expression as she pulls back to throw a punch at my face
  962. >I flinch momentarily to await the impact of her fist, but it never came
  963. >"Hey, what's going on here?"
  964. >that voice... this situation; the timing couldn't possible be any worse
  965. >I hastily spoke up to come up with some sort of excuse before things were to get ugly
  966. >"We're just... uh, messing around. You know, uh. Horseplay? Yeah, horseplay. Just students being students, ha ha."
  967. >Hilda lets go of me and wipes the spit off her cheek with her shirt and walks off in the opposite direction
  968. >"This isn't over"
  969. >she finally makes her way out of our vision and two red arms came to a hug me from behind
  970. >"Anon~ What do you mean, horseplay? You can't do that with anyone, but me!"
  971. >I look back at Akki's concerned face and take my hand and pinch her cheek
  972. >"Owowo, Anon jeez~ You can't do that with other girls, Anon."
  973. >at least she's oblivious to the bullying; I'm safe for the time being
  974. >"You're too worried Akki. Come on, let's go to class."
  975. >she links her arms with mine with a smile as we make our way to gym class
  976. >Hilda is my problem and my problem alone; if I can't overcome this alone then I cannot call myself a man
  977.  
  978. Part XIII (2/14/16):
  979. >>142062
  980.  
  981. >we make our way to gym and sit down on "her" seat
  982. >we talked a little to kill some time, but there wasn't much to talk about since we've been around each other for a while
  983. >sometimes it was just a look and a smile
  984. >I guess when it comes down to it, it's good that we can share moments like these too
  985. >the teacher blew the whistle, starting the jogging session
  986. >although my body was sore, I feel like I'm getting more used to the exercise since my stamina has been building
  987. >we sit down to stretch and it went through easily, as well as relieving a little bit of the pain from this morning
  988. >push ups, sit ups, and planks were a little more easy as well
  989. >slowly but surely, I was becoming stronger
  990. >finally recreational time came, and for today it was soccer
  991. >lots of running to build up my stamina and leg muscles
  992. >as soon as I knew it, gym was over and it was time for lunch
  993. >Akki and I finished drinking water from the fountain and she gave me smug look
  994. >"W-what are you looking at, Akki?"
  995. >"Heh~ seems like you're getting a used to the exercise. I hope you aren't thinking of leaving me for someone else or anything~"
  996. >she gives a laugh and grabs my sweaty hand with hers and moves it to her face to have it caress her cheek
  997. >"You are mine after all."
  998. >I quickly pull my hand out from her grasp in embarrassment and slide it in my pocket
  999. >"Y-yeah, lets uh get something to eat."
  1000. >I'm not sure I'll ever get used to this much affection; my heart can't take all this love so I'm not really sure how to handle it
  1001. >Akki then comes up and bear hugs me from behind, making it seem as though she's going to snap my spine
  1002. >"Anon, you know I love you right?"
  1003. >"Yeah, of course I do so loosen the grip will ya?"
  1004. >she grabs on tighter instead
  1005. >"Are you sure?"
  1006. >what's with her? Is she still worried about this morning?
  1007. >"I'm absolutely sure. Akki don't worry so much. Come on, let's go to lunch before the line gets long."
  1008. >I grab her hand for once causing her to loosen her grip and lead her out of the gym
  1009. >I looked back at her to see the embarrassed look on her face that was partially covered by her other hand
  1010. >"A-anon"
  1011. >we made our way to the lunch line without another word and got our food and made our way to the courtyard
  1012. >eating in silence for about 10 minutes, we both suddenly look at each other and started laughing
  1013. >we ARE like a couple, huh?
  1014. >I scratch my head and start clearing my throat as I can feel it drying up
  1015. >"Y-you know, Akki? I uh..."
  1016. >Akki perked up at my sudden words and gave me her full attention with a soft smile
  1017. >"I uh... I think I want to go out with you, maybe..."
  1018. >oh boy, I said it
  1019. >my heart beating rapidly as I feel a bit lightheaded, but as I look at Akki, I am shoved into the grass without even realizing
  1020. >she climbs on top of me slowly with her leg placed between mine and her hand on my shoulder to prevent me from getting up
  1021. >"A-anon, are you serious? I'm not dreaming am I?"
  1022. >I take my free hand and finger through her short hair while caressing her cheek
  1023. >"Yeah, I'm serious. At first I thought that you would torment me, but somehow, being with you alleviates all my worries. I've really come to lik-"
  1024. >she cut me off with a kiss that pushed my head straight in the grass causing me to suffocate
  1025. >the kiss seemed to last for hours until she finally raised her head from my face as I gasp for air and leaned back down to continue
  1026. >the softness of her lips entranced me as the lack of oxygen combined with the her touch caused me to enter a trance filled with bliss
  1027. >she finally pulled away when she realized that I was turning blue and giggled
  1028. >"Sorry, about that A-anon. I couldn't control myself. I guess we're official now."
  1029. >yep

  1033.  
  1034. >it was the end of lunch and Akki and I finally got up from our spots in the grass
  1035. >she looks at me with a quiet giggle
  1036. >"Want to walk home together?"
  1037. >"Sure, that would be nice"
  1038. >I waved to her as she went to her next class with a slight skip in her step
  1039. >doing the same, I found the rest of the day to be boring, but I waited in anticipation for school to end
  1040. >Akki met me out side of the front entrance of the school with both hands behind her back and a toothy grin once she saw me
  1041. >I looked around to see if Hilda was here, but oddly enough after our quarrel from this morning, she was nowhere to be found
  1042. >I was getting a little paranoid; maybe she was up to something?
  1043. >the warmth of Akki's body that embraced me suddenly snapped me out of my train of thought
  1044. >that's right... even if she was here, she wouldn't be able to do anything because of Akki's presence
  1045. >"Jeez~ Anon, are you even listening to me?"
  1046. >what?
  1047. >"Huh, did you say something? Sorry, I wasn't paying attention, ha ha."
  1048. >she started to pout as her eyes began to water slightly
  1049. >"Anon, are you hiding something from me? It seems like you aren't opening up to me."
  1050. >I waved her comment off
  1051. >"No, don't worry. I was just thinking that it was a long day today. Come on, let's go home."
  1052. >I take her hand and lead her away from the school until she picked up her pace and walked along beside me with a gentle grip on my hand
  1053. >it was a peaceful walk that consisted of talking about the other classes we had until she brought up the games that she liked to play
  1054. >"Anon, I know that Katamari Damacy is really fun, but next time I come over, we should play something together where we both can play."
  1055. >"Like what? I've got a bunch that we can play. It's up to you since I've played most of them at least a little bit."
  1056. >she ponders for a little bit
  1057. >"Hmm... well, want to go play something when we get to your house?"
  1058. >"Sorry Akki, not today. I've got something I have to do today."
  1059. >that's right! Today is Wednesday, so it'll be my first proper day to go train at the boxing gym
  1060. >Akki looked disappointed, but she soon came to understand
  1061. >"Oh that's too bad. What were you going to do today?"
  1062. >hmm, I'm not sure if I can tell her about the boxing since it'll lead to more questions and eventually narrow down to Hilda
  1063. >"I uh... Got plans with friends."
  1064. >she looked genuinely shocked at my response
  1065. >"But Anon, I didn't know you had any friends..."
  1066. >ouch... well I guess that's true but to have it reinforced stings a little
  1067. >"Y-yeah, I made some in my other boring classes."
  1068. >"Oh, I see. Well, good for you Anon! I'm happy for you!"
  1069. >she took the bait easily, but I don't feel so good about it
  1070. >I feel like I've been lying too her too much, but I figure that it's better than having her flip out if she were to know the truth
  1071. >"Hopefully, you'll introduce them to me sometime!"
  1072. >"Y-yeah, one day."
  1073. >we finally made it to my house
  1074. >pulling my keys out of my pocket, I look at Akki's face to see her cheerful smile beaming at me
  1075. >she attempts to lightly punch me in the shoulder, but it hurts anyways
  1076. >"I hope you have fun, Anon! I hope you enjoy yourself. Tell me how it goes later, okay?"
  1077. >she brings me in for a quick but tight hug followed by a smooch and waves me goodbye as she walks down the street to her house
  1078.  
  1079. >I open my door and make my way to my room to get changed
  1080. >I put on some blue shorts and a grey t-shirt and took out some old tennis shoes that seemed a little worn down
  1081. >"Better than nothing, I guess."
  1082. >I make my way to the window and scouted the area to see if Akki wasn't around as a precaution and headed out once I saw that everything was clear
  1083. >but then I wondered, is this really okay?
  1084. >it feels wrong to do this behind her back, but I don't really have a choice now, do I?
  1085. >if I didn't do this, I would always be fearful of Hilda and get pushed around for the rest of high school
  1086. >my doubts faded, but the weight of my lies still felt heavy
  1087. >I finally made my way to the boxing gym and looked around for Mr. Smith
  1088. >he wasn't in the main area, so I checked his office and saw him filling out some paperwork
  1089. >"Uh hey, Mr. Smith. It's me, Anon. I'm here to start my training."
  1090. >slowly looking up, he gave me a stern look that threw me off
  1091. >"Oh it's you, boy. Hmm, well to begin, get started jumping rope. Don't stop until I finish looking through the paperwork, got that?
  1092. >I took a look and saw that the stack of pages was stacked about a foot above his desk; doesn't look like too much
  1093. >"Yes sir! Seems simple enough."
  1094. >he gets back to his signing without another word as I make my way back to the main area
  1095. >I take a jump rope that was placed in the corner of the gym and unraveled in and started going at it
  1096. >huh, this isn't too bad
  1097. >it's just jump rope, so this shouldn't be much of a problem right
  1098. >...
  1099. >10 minutes pass and my legs are killing me
  1100. >the rotations of my wrist are causing my arms to become slightly numb yet painful
  1101. >how much longer is this going to last?
  1102. >I keep going regardless of the pain, closing my eyes to think about something more pleasant
  1103. >Akki... yes
  1104. >her sweet smile and soft touch propels me to continue
  1105. >...
  1106. >ahh, the burn; it's been about 20 minutes now and I'm shaking now
  1107. >I eventually just stopped because I wasn't sure my body could handle anymore
  1108. >I take my shirt and pull it rapidly to get some air onto my torso that's soaked in my sweat as I gasp for air
  1109. >I finally take a look at the office to see, Mr. Smith standing in the doorway
  1110. >"Not bad, Anon. 20 minutes for a first timer. I'm pretty impressed you kept up for so long. Take a short break, you earned it."
  1111. >he looks down at my shoes,at my hands, then back up at my face
  1112. >"Before we continue, I'm gonna need you to buy some new shoes and also some wraps and gloves for practice cause you might injure yourself."
  1113. >gloves and shoes? Where have I heard that before?
  1114. >he continues with a slight cough
  1115. >"Well, I recommend that you go to Mick's Sporting Goods to get your equipment since my grand daughter works there and if you tell her that you know me, you might get a discount, I don't know ha ha."
  1116. >what a nice old man
  1117. >"Thanks, I'll keep that in mind."
  1118. >he then get's me to do various stretches and takes me to lift some weights before we get to the actual punching
  1119. >eventually, it was late in the evening so I finally left the boxing gym feeling a sense of accomplishment
  1120.  
  1121. Part XV (2/18/16):
  1122. >>143749
  1123.  
  1124. >it was going to get pretty dark out, but I decided that I was going to stop by Mick's Sporting Goods before heading home
  1125. >the store was located in a shopping plaza that was several of miles from my house, so I decided to take the bus there since I didn't have a car yet
  1126. >I waited on one of the benches and sent a text to Akki telling her how my training when
  1127. >Anon: I just got out of the boxing gym, and I'm on my way to pick up some equipment
  1128. >...wait a second, I can't send this
  1129. >I deleted the message and rewrote it as my chest sank
  1130. >Anon: I had a great time with my friends. We played some games and stuff, but we went out to the store to buy something for one of them so I'm coming home a little late."
  1131. >hmm, sounds convincing enough... and SEND
  1132. >I slid the phone in my pocket, but instantly vibrated in my pants
  1133. >heh, she sure does respond fast
  1134. >Akki: I'm glad you had fun, Anon! Don't come home too late now, we still have school tomorrow! Text me when you get back. Love you!"
  1135. >if it wasn't for the lie, I'd feel really good right now; oh well, gotta do what I gotta do
  1136. >the bus pulls up and I hop on, paying my fare and taking a seat in the back and put my earbuds in and listened to some tunes
  1137. >it wasn't long before I made it to my stop and left the bus to walk to the store
  1138. >the sun has completely disappeared from my view and the lights in the parking lot started coming on when I walked past the 5 or so parked cars
  1139. >I made my way inside the store and scanned the place to find the boxing area since I don't want to waste to much time
  1140. >there weren't that many people in the store either since it's a bit late, so I felt a little pressure to hurry up cause I'm sure they might be closing soon
  1141. >I finally found the boxing stuff; it was somewhere near the back of the store next to the shoes
  1142. >very convenient for me cause I easily picked up a pair a standard red boxing gloves along with some tape, put it in my hand basket, and make my way to the tennis shoes
  1143. >I scanned the shelf to find what I wanted but I felt a tap on my shoulder
  1144. >"Can I help you find anything today..? Wait a second. Anon, is that you?"
  1145. >the voice startled me because it was the last voice that I wanted to hear, especially at this time of the day
  1146. >I turned to see Hilda right besides me, which made me jump and knock a couple of the shoe boxes off the shelf
  1147. >"Heh, well I'm about as shocked as you are. Luckily for you, I can't do anything to do or I'll get fired ha ha."
  1148. >she leaned down to pick up the boxes that I dropped
  1149. >"W-wait, I can get them since I knocked them over..."
  1150. >I stooped down to help, but she pushed me away with a glare that got me to stand back up
  1151. >"Don't worry about it Anon. This is my job after all. What are you in here for anyway? I didn't know that you were the sporty type."
  1152. >I quickly put the basket behind my back to hide its contents
  1153. >"Y-you know... just getting some tennis shoes."
  1154. >she gave me a smug grin and looked around to make sure if any one else was watching, and unluckily, there wasn't
  1155. >she twisted my arm and jolted it behind my back and took the basket in one swift motion
  1156. >"Boxing gloves and tape..? Why would you buy this, hmm~?"
  1157. >quick Anon, think, think!
  1158. >"Uh, it's for my friend who likes that sort of stuff a lot."
  1159. >she didn't quite catch the bait as I thought she would but she seemed interested anyways
  1160. >"So Anon, tell me about this friend of yours."
  1161. >"H-he's a muscle head type of guy who goes to the gym a lot. He... he doesn't go to our school though but I've known him for a while."
  1162. >she shoved the basket back into my hands with a strong force that caught me off guard
  1163. >"Yeah whatever Anon. Like I believe any of your make believe friends. You got some gloves cause you recently started boxing, right? My grandpa told me all about you."
  1164. >grandpa?
  1165.  
  1166. >the slow realization kicked in... Akki is Mr. Smith's granddaughter? What luck is this?
  1167. >"You look surprised, Anon. I'd be too if I was in your situation. Why'd you start anyways? To get a workout or maybe... to beat me up?"
  1168. >she turns around with a giggle as the blood rushes to my face in embarrassment
  1169. >"How simpleminded, ha ha! I've also heard something peculiar today too~ You would never guess."
  1170. >I don't even want to hear anymore at this point; I feel like I've been broken down enough
  1171. >"I saw Akki in the hall earlier today, and guess what she told me?"
  1172. >oh god no
  1173. >"She told me that you two started dating! How rich!"
  1174. >I guess it was only time until she found out, but it still feels me with uneasiness with what she might do
  1175. >"Anon, I've been doing some thinking... and I want to give you an offer."
  1176. >she looked around to see if anyone was watching, but nope
  1177. >she took her light green arm and slowly but surely pushed me against the shelf and got close enough to my face that I could feel her breath
  1178. >"How about you leave Akki and date me instead?"
  1179. >excuse me?
  1180. >"What better way to get back at her than to steal the guy she loves from her? You're a pretty decent looking guy so I'm not afraid of being around you or anything like that."
  1181. >what the hell is going on? This is happening too suddenly
  1182. >"And don't worry. I won't beat on you anymore when we're together. We could start over, it's up to you."
  1183. >I looked at her face to confirm her words, and they seem to be genuine; however, I could also feel the anger welling up within me like a kettle boiling water
  1184. >I slapped her hand away in frustration and pushed her away promptly to regain control of the situation
  1185. >"Hilda, you must be out of your mind! You really think I'd do something like that! Fuck off with your bullshit!"
  1186. >my voice echoed throughout the store since it was quiet, which probably caused all the employees to hear
  1187. >Hilda took a couple of steps away from me and sighed deeply
  1188. >"Tsk tsk, Anon. At least I gave you options, but I guess we gotta do this the hard way then since you got a couple of screws loose."
  1189. >she pulled a box of sneakers off the shelf that was surprisingly my size and handed it to me
  1190. >"Here go sit over on that bench and try these on. They should be comfortable."
  1191. >I did exactly as she said and the shoes were a perfect fit; fits snugly around my feet with a little breathing room and it was a basic grey color so I can wear it without standing out much
  1192. >"Fit alright, Anon?"
  1193. >I nodded at her, which caused her to grin in a sweet matter that threw me through a loop
  1194. >it was my first time seeing an expression on her face that didn't evoke fear; if anything, it was sort of cute in a way
  1195. >now that I notice, although she's an orc, she isn't really ugly like you'd think an orc would be
  1196. >her light green skin was fair and her jet black hair covered her whole head and came down to mid neck level with a defined straightness
  1197. >I realized that I was staring at her and started to feel a bit confused because I never looked at her like this before since she'd usually torment me at school, but now it's more peaceful
  1198. >"Hilda, why are you so violent? I think if you were a little more kind, dare I'd say, but I think you'd be really cute."
  1199. >she was stunned by my comment and looked away sheepishly
  1200. >"Anon... you're pretty bold for someone with a girlfriend."
  1201. >oh shit, what am I doing; why am I getting wrapped up in her pace when I already have Akki
  1202. >"Y-yeah, you're right. Well I really like these shoes so I think I'm gonna buy them. Mr. Smith said you could give me a discount... so um-"
  1203. >she pinched the bridge of her nose and waved me to follow her to the front of the store
  1204. >she rung me up and got like 20% off of everything, which was nice
  1205. >I was about to leave the store but her voice stopped me dead in my tracks
  1206. >"Don't forget what we talked about, Anon. You better be prepared for tomorrow!"
  1207. >she cracks her knuckles and I walk out, which send a shiver up my spine as I left
  1208. >as I waited for the bus to take me back home, Hilda's words looped in my head, which gave me an unsettling feeling I couldn't shake off
  1209. >man, what type of situation is this
  1210. >the bus arrived and I got home at like 9 PM, so I quickly showered then slid under the covers and stared up at the ceiling and thought of the events that occurred tonight
  1211. >I finally passed out asleep, but forgot one thing
  1212. >I didn't text Akki when I got back
