In front of the school cafeteria, two figures stood outside the doors of the cafeteria room. One was Shito Mahinu, he was still dressed in his school uniform. There was no need for him to change since they still had another class later. The other student was Tenka Vermillion, she was directly beside him, holding his hand tightly to make sure he didn't wander off anywhere.
Shito still didn't know his way around the school, so Tenka was going to be the one to show him around the school. To her, it would have been better if she were the one to do it since she owes him a lot for what she did to him on their first day. Even though they had just become roommates, Tenka thought that she could become great friends with him.
"We are here!"
But when she said that Shito just stared at her devoid of any emotion, he was just dragged by her to the cafeteria without his consent. He wasn't in the mood to eat food since he really had no need to eat because mages could survive with food by using the mana in the air to give them nutrients.
"...You are quite strong… But did you have to drag me along with you? I have legs so I can walk perfectly fine."
Tenka just noticed how forceful she was when she was in a hurry to get him to the cafeteria, dragging him before she even asked for his permission. But what could she do now? She had already started dragging him with her.
I just I should ask if he wants to eat with me… but what if he says no, then I'm going to be embarrassed.
With those thoughts, she mustered up all the courage she had inside of her, just to ask him a single question. She could tell by the way he showed his emotions that he wasn't really interested in anyone in the school or caring for any of the students.
"...Would you like to eat lunch with me!?"
"I guess… it wouldn't hurt that much if I did eat with you."
Even though there was no need for him to eat with her, he decided that it would be for the best because none of the other students would bother him if he was close to her. He was in school without any family background whatsoever. While his sister may be the strongest mage. The others would only know her by 'Sara', her first name, they do not know her family's last name. Only one person knows they have any connections together and that is Tenka, the princess of the Vermillion family.
Tenka smiled widely, she was happy that he decided to eat lunch with her, there were so many other people he could choose from, but he chose her.
…I noticed he doesn't have a lot of emotions… that's going to be my new goal, my new goal is to make him show me his emotions.
With that, a new goal was set for her, the start of an adventure to see some of the emotions that Shito had bottled up inside of himself.
Lunch was about to start, so Tenka grabbed Shito's hand and held it tightly, enough so that she could not lose her grip, but she made sure not to squeeze too tight because she didn't want to hurt his hand.
"...Eh, why are you grabbing my hand?" Shito asked, confused by the girls' actions. The only person who ever held his hand was his sister when they were little, so he wondered why a person that he didn't know for too long would want to hold his hand, they were a little too old to be holding each other's hand.
Before he said something she was not embarrassed by holding his hand, but that changed after he said something, her face was as red as a tomato, and Shito did not notice because he was too busy looking at the people that were inside the cafeteria, where people were walking all around trying to get their food and find seats to sit down in.
"We should go get our lunch now," Tenka said, blushing from embarrassment, but that did not change the fact that she was not letting go of his hand, the hand of the boy, Shito was warm, and she liked that feeling. Enough so that she was not going to let him go.
The two students walked into the cafeteria room, with their hands locked, holding each other tightly so they wouldn't get separated.
All the students stared at them while they were walking in, each student wondered why they were holding hands. There were no other students holding hands in the school and if they did, they were dating.
"Do you think those two are dating!?" A random male student asked, looking at them as they were walking to get their food. There was no other question he could ask since that was what everyone was wondering.
A male student that was sitting beside him opened his mouth, "That could be the case, I mean look at him he is easily the most good-looking boy in this school." He said looking at the Shito as he walked with the Vermillion princess.
Tenka looked around the room, noticing that there were rumors circulating about them 'dating,' but she did not really mind. Shito was a boy who was stronger than her, and that was more than enough for her to classify him as a suitable husband to her. There was also the fact that he didn't take advantage of people, or he did not have any need for her family's power since his sister was one of the strongest mages in the world.
Walking to the front of the cafeteria room, both students came to a sudden stop. Tenka looked at Shito and pointed toward the back of the cafeteria, where there were two open seats. That was the place she decided they were going to sit and eat their lunch together.
"Could you go back there for me, that is the seat we are going to be sitting at today."
Shito nodded his head, walking away from the Vermillion princess to go take the seats that were in the back of the cafeteria room. He knew that she was going to get the food for them, so that was the least he could do. Whatever she picked was whatever he was going to because he was not a fussy eater.
He sat in the two open seats, waiting for her to hurry and get their food. Shito wasn't in a rush to eat, he just didn't want to be sitting alone in a place where he did not know the people that were sitting around him.
In front of him stood a woman with a beautiful voluptuous figure, her long wavy crimson red hair, and sky-blue eyes that shined like sapphire. Her breasts are excessively big. The woman was known as the vermillion princess.
…Beautiful! Shito could not think of any other way to describe the woman that was standing before him. Her beauty to him stood out like no others in the school, her beauty was something that one would only see in a fairy tale, with a body that would make any person feel lust be it man or woman. She was simply a person who could capture a person's heart.
"I'm back now… so let us eat our lunch together," Tenka said, handing him the plate of food that was in her right hand. She sat in the empty seat that was beside him, their bodies were close enough so they could feel the heat of each other's bodies.
"...Ok."
Not another word was spoken between the two when they were sitting beside each other, there was no way that either of them could start a conversation with one another. One was the princess of a big family, a girl who was kept inside her house and never even met with a man, with the only expectation of her family. The other was a person who had no interest in people at all, the only person he talked to was his older sister.
Was there anything that could be said between the two? The answer was simple, if they wanted to talk to each other then somebody would have to break the silence. A single word is enough to get a conversation going even if you have not talked to a person.
Tenka looked at Shito, she knew that he wasn't going to go out of his way to start any kind of conversation, so she resolved herself to be the one to do it. The silence between them was a little too awkward.
Well… I don't know what to say to him, he isn't a person that likes communicating with other people! Tenka thought while looking at Shito as he was eating his food. Wow… everything he does looks elegant, the way he eats is like someone of royalty! With a beautiful face, anything is possible, and his hair messy-looking hair, which goes past his shoulder, all the way down his back!
"You know, you are really a beautiful-looking boy," Tenka said, regretting every single word that came out of her mouth. While everything she said was the truth, she unconsciously said it aloud.
"H-Huh...? Thanks... You look beautiful too, Tenka"
Tenka's face turned completely red from the compliment he just gave her, and she could not even eat her food beside him, and she got up from the table, and walked away from him.
"Let's go. Class is about to start again."
Shito got up and walked behind her, there was not much to be said between the two of them.
*Ring! * The school bell rang, ending their lunch break for the day. With that, their break for lunch had ended and the start of the classes were about to resume.
