6 CH 5 - In Rei's Mind

----------------------------------[Rei POV]----------------------------------

I'm walking home right now. I need some time to think. I just got held back 1 year by a teacher named Koichi Shido. That day my heart hurts getting to know that I'll repeat another year. I need comfort at that time yet Takashi just said 'That's just a year Rei. It's okay.' Okay my ass! You don't know my pain! a year!? Just a year!? Fuck that! I need comfort from you but you just said a year!? I get angry but I control myself. You're really dense. A stupid one at top of that. I just walk home crestfallen. I cry at my house for hours and my hatred for Shido increases as the distance between me and Takashi too.

First day of school again. I just ignore Takashi while we walk to school. I don't think I can get to the next grade year. I know the reason why Shido falls my grade. I hear dad talking to phone as he spoke the name Ichirou Shido. Then everything connects. Dad is an investigator so I quickly learn that he is investigating Ichirou Shido, father of Koichi Shido. I can just sigh heavily as I look at the school with many different feelings. I feel sad, angry and hatred at Shido. As we get close, a black car arrived. I think some rich come here to study and start to ignore it but I freeze as I saw the most handsome face I've ever seen in my life that can trample any male in this world. Tall and handsome. Mysterious vibes keeps floating around him. I just stare blankly as he walks to gym. I wake up as Takashi calls me. Then we go to gym too as the opening ceremony will start.

As the boring opening finish, we go directly to our classroom. I can't stop thinking about that handsome guy I saw earlier. As I keep imagining him, I look at the door to see him walk in. I got excited. Who would knew that the handsome boy I saw earlier would be my classmate. Perhaps being held back a year is not that bad. I need to talk to him later.

Our homeroom teacher arrives and comes to the middle of the room to introduce herself. I know her, she is Kyoko Hayashi. A beautiful woman that my male classmates lusts, Shido too. She is my English teacher last year too. Now that I think about it, I saw her walking with that handsome guy earlier. I froze as I think they have a relationship. Well, let's not jump to conclusion you know they could just be a friend.

We began introducing ourselves and the handsome guy also introduce himself. So he is Dell Creed I need to start memorizing his name. I was shocked when someone said his name is similar to the owner of Creed Tech, the 100 billion dollar company. I look at him as I stare at the most perfect human. The class commence and it got boring for me as I know the topics in different subjects.

I want to talk to him but Takashi came and invites me to walk home. I got annoyed but I go with him. I can introduce myself to him tomorrow.

Next day. I saw and I can't help but think 'He's really handsome.' I keep staring at him for a whole day and he notices it. He turns at me and winks while smiling. I blush as I see that playful smile of his and turns my head in my right side.

When I catch a glimpse of him, I see him talking to Saya. Saya is my friend too. We know each other as Takashi and Saya are childhood friends too. I saw her blush and shouts in her tsundere mode. I know that mode. She uses it when she gets played. She is smart but weak to teasing words. I want to introduce myself right know but damn, Takashi stop inviting me! I can go home on my own! I had no choice but to leave the school. The year is long and I can talk to him anytime. We start to go home as Takashi has the one who's house is closer to school, I walk on my home alone.

While thinking of that handsome guy named Dell, I saw Shido and his gangs walks in front of me.

"What are you doing here Shido? As far as I know, the way to your house is on the other side. " I ask as I always saw him walking on the other side of school but I got afraid when they circled me.

"My, My, What a venomous tongue you have Rei Miyamoto. " Shido spoke playfully.

"Get out of my way!" I get angry as I start to walk away but he caught my arm and squeeze it hard.

"Awww!" I tried shaking it off but he grip my arm so hard that it started to bruise.

I was gonna kick him in his private region but someone pulls my hand away from Shido.

"What do you think you're doing, teacher Shido?"A tall muscular boy ask as I look at him and froze as I know him. Of course my handsome classmate, Dell!

"This is personal problems, student Creed. You don't need to interfere with us" Shido said as he looks at Dell with contempt.

"There's no personal problems here teacher Shido. Look at Rei's arm, it's starting to bruise." Dell said as he pointed his fingers in my arm. I feel warmth as he protects me from Shido.

"Tch! This isn't over. Come on, Let's go!" Shido said angrily as they walk away from us.

I just stared at Shido as I feel myself safe in Dell's arms.

I start to awake as I see Dell's hand waving in front of me.

"Ah Ah! I'm okay! I'm okay!" I got surprise and blush when he asks me if I'm fine.

I want to walk home right now and jump to bed as my heart starts to burst out of my chest.

He insist to treat my bruised arm so I just nodded. We go to a pharmacy to buy bandages. We go to the park as he bandaged my arm. I feel happy but got sad when he ask what happened.

I explained while crying as he comforts me. This is the comfort that I need, not that 'It's just a year.' from Takashi-t. I start to have feelings for him as I thank him while blushing.

He just smile at me as my heart palpitate I shouted 'B-Byee!' stuttered as I run away to my home.

When I arrived at my home, my mom greets me but I just run straight to my bedroom and lie while shaking and shrieking in my pillow.

This is the one of the best days of my life.
