Exam Studies
-One Month Ago-
-Yuki-
We were supposed to study. Well, just me at least. I was going to
do this alone. I told Asuka not to bother me. I turned off my phone
and set up my desk. I was going to sit down and get it done.
Despite my careful planning, I couldn't focus. I leaned back in my
chair and groaned. I cursed myself under my breath. Why was this so
hard?
I lifted my head when I heard a knock on my door. Hm? Was Asuka
back already? She would've said so.
“Who is it?” I asked.
“It's me,” Shizuma said. My heart jumped in my chest. I jumped and
ran over to the door. I threw it open. There he was. I felt myself
choke a little.
“Yo,” he said.
“W-W-W-What are you doing here?” I asked.
“I'm here to help you study,” he said. I gave him a blank look.
“What?” I asked.
“For your exams,” he said. “You do have exams, right?”
“Yes…” I said. Shizuma folded his arms across his chest.
“Do you want my help or not?” he asked. I stood looking like an
idiot for a moment.
“Sure…” I said. He had no emotion on his face as he teleported into
my room. I looked around the hallway before I closed the door.
At first, we said nothing. If I couldn't focus before, it was even
worse. Shizuma narrowed his eyes at me.
“What are you stuck on?” he asked. My red turned face as I looked
down at my notebook.
“This one,” I said, pointing below me. Shizuma moved my finger and
looked at what I was pointing at.
“That one, huh?” he asked. I nodded.
“What are you stuck on?” he asked.
“I don't know,” I mumbled. Shizuma lifted my face to his. I felt so
small in his gaze.
“What is wrong here?” he asked. “Talk to me.” I could feel my eyes
starting to tear up.
“Why are you doing this to me?” I asked. Shizuma gave me a strange
look.
“What do you mean?” he asked. I found myself struggling to speak.
Why? Why does he do this to me?
“We go back and forth,” I said. “You disappear on me for days at a
time and you won't tell me what's really going on?” My lower lip
trembled.
“What do you want from me?” I asked. I could feel a single tear
rolling down my cheek. Shizuma said nothing as he let go of my
cheeks.
“What are you having trouble with the problem?” he asked. I pouted
as I eyed him.
I couldn't focus on the questions Shizuma was asking me. Why
wouldn't he answer me? I felt like I wanted to scream. What was
with this guy? I tightly clenched my pen. I clenched my teeth to
keep from screaming.
“Are you listening to me?” Shizuma asked. I looked up at him
gritted my teeth.
“No,” I said.
“Why did you ignore my question?” I asked. For the first time
today, I saw a little hint of emotion on his beautiful face.
“You wouldn't understand,” he said. I wouldn't understand? I
wouldn't understand?! My face felt hot as I screamed in my head. I
just had to say or doing something.
“Kiss me.”
“What did you say?” Shizuma asked. I leaned in and kissed him on
the lips before I knew it. He didn't try to push me off. Nor did I
stop. I looked into his eyes when I pulled away. We didn't speak. I
turned back to my notebook and picked up my pen. Shizuma cleared
his throat.
“Do you need me to go over the problem?” he asked. I looked down
and cleared my throat.
“Yeah,” I said with red cheeks. He went over the English phrase in
my notes again. We didn't talk about our relationship or the kiss
and I couldn't focus again. There went my plans for studying.
Looking back, somehow that didn't really matter anymore.
