Chapter Text
“Hellooooo~?” You pop your head into the classroom, throwing a quick glance around the room. “Ehhhh?! Where is she?” You exclaim loudly. Everyone in the room turns to look at you, and you immediately turn beet red, looking down and letting your H/C hair cover your shame and embarrassment filled face. You hear someone walk up to you, looking up you see your sister’s best friend, Aoi Akane, looking at you with sympathy. “Hey Y/N-Chan~!” She says brightly, obviously trying to make you feel better.
“H-hey Aoi-San,” you mutter weakly. She pats your arm lightly, “Were you looking for Nene-Chan?” At the mention of Nene, you remember your original reason for coming to her classroom.
“Oh yeah, I was, do you happen to know where she is?”
“No, not really, I’m so sorry Y/N-Chan,” you sigh in defeat, and turn to leave but you feel Aoi grab your wrist.
“A-aoi?!” She let’s go of your wrist, and you immediately grab at it to feel it. ‘Dang, that girl has a vice grip,’ you think ‘Probably from all that gardening, I wouldn’t want to mess with her even if Akane didn’t keep her under his watch...’ Upon thinking that thought, you feel a shiver go down your spine. Peering behind Aoi, you see her childhood friend, and the class rep, Akane Aoi. He’s staring at you with a murderous intent, ‘CRAP! He must have seen Aoi grab me, I’m toast.’
Coming back to reality, you focus on Aoi’s face.
“S-so what is it?” You manage to spit out.
“Well like I said, I don’t know exactly where Nene-Chan is, but I might have an idea.”
‘Oh geez I think I know where this is going,’ you internally sweatdrop.
“You know how Nene-Chan has been going on and on about how she has the worst luck with boys? Well I wanted to make her feel better so I told her about the 7th Mystery of our school, you do know it right?” Aoi looks at you expectantly.
“Oh you mean the one about Hanako-San in the Girl’s Bathroom right?”
“Yup~! That’s the one, well after I told her about it, she shot right out of the classroom, and I can only assume that she went to the third floor girl’s bathroom in the old building. She has been really desperate lately, I’m worried that I might have spurred something with that rumor.” she admits. She has such a cute sad face you can’t help but think ‘Oh no Aoiiiii, it’s not your fault! Don’t be sad.’ Shaking your head to purge such thoughts, you reply with the best straight face you can muster (which is really bad, sorry.)
“It’s ok Aoi, I’m sure she’ll be fine, but I’ll go see if I can find her, you can come with me if you are really worried about her!” Aoi just shakes her head, “I’m sorry I can’t, I have to take care of the plants, and since Nene is missing I’ll have to go ahead and do her part as well. But best of luck to finding Nene Y/N-Chan!” She turns around and joins Akane, who is looking at you with a smug face. Sighing, you spin your heels and run off to the Girl’s Bathroom on the third floor of the old building, hoping to make it before your lunch break is over.
