Cafeteria was filled with students and chatter was filling the hall. The students were doing different things. Some were talking about lessons and some were talking about their club activities and some were talking about games, animes and dramas they enjoy. It was lively.
Yona and others headed toward the tables that were separated for them as they are in S class, after taking their food. Surprisingly Lei and Ryouta was getting along really well and all along the way Ryouta couldn't stop thanking yona for saving him from almost being eaten by those bunch of thirsty girls.
When they go there all the tables were taken while Shin was sitting alone in a six man table. Of course yona went and sat there without even asking Shin for permission. Others followed Yona's example as they sat around the table. Shin was confused, Yes. But he didn't seem to mind.
"Umm.." Shin mumbled as if asking what is going on.
"Well, Shin.. was it?" Lei spoke up while putting some fried chicken on satsuki's plate. " You play any sports?"
" Yes." Shin answered. " I play Basketball"
"Whoa great" Satsuki shouted while munching on the fried chicken Lei put on her plate "Lei-chan here does basketball too."
"Yeah. I still didn't go to hand out my application for the Basketball club" Lei mumbled. " wanna go together"
"Well. Me neither." Shin got in to the conversation. "Tell me when you are going"
Then lei nodded as ryouta spoke up.
"hey You guys" ryouta interrupted. "Mind me tagging along. I also play Basketball"
That caught Yona's attention who was silently listening to the talk while slowly eating her food..
" You are joining the Basketball club too" yona asked
" yeah. I played Basketball since I am a kid. So I am gonna join." Ryouta answered as giving off a cute smile. " by the way, Which club are you planning to join, Yona?"
"Umm.." Yona thought for a while " I have never thought about it.. I have never been in a club before but I might as well join something"
"Why not join the literary club" Shin recommended.
"Oh. I don't enjoy reading much" yona answered. Well she regained her memory as Melinoe. After all Melinoe is a playful child rather than a scholar. However she wasn't bad at studying. She could remember anything without putting in much effort.
"Then what about Badminton club" a unknown voice came from behind as Yona looked behind. It was a 2nd year student from the elite class. He had quite long blue bangs and a handsome face.
"Sorry to eavesdrop on you, little kids.. I am Eddie from the Badminton club" the guy introduced himself. "We don't have much players and it would be great if you can join us."
"Oh. Badminton?" Yona thought for a while. " I would love to. But is it okay since I don't have any experience on the sport"
"It is okay as long as goddess like you joins the club" Eddie said while giving off a creepy smile which somehow made Ryouta stand up.
" Sorry Lei," ryouta spoke up looking at lei " you can go to hand out the club applications with shin. I am also joining the Badminton club"
He didn't know why but He felt the need to interfere.
" Then Eddie- senpai" ryouta called out giving him the cold shoulder which made satsuki give off a very creepy smirk "why don't you let me join your club too."
"Very well, you can come to the badminton club room after school." Eddie who was delighted to have two angels in the club spoke up. His only need for them was so he can use them to gain more and more club members. But Eddie didn't know at the time that this was the turning point of the badminton club itself.
...
After the lunch Yona and others went back to the classroom together. Everyone was looking at them as they were something very different. The top 5 of the elite class were all together. Everyone could tell just by looking at them that they are on a different level.
Then the literature class began as Their class teacher, Mr. Edward entered the class.
"My dear fishes," the man started "did you miss me. Don"t worry. I am here now. Either way form a five man group. Have a assignment first day of the class. Aren't I nice.."
Everyone started to move around there desks without responding to the crazy man. As for yona she always was alone and she was left alone in these kind of grouping things. So she just sat there lost in thought when a desk clashing to her desk made her come back to the reality once more.
And another desk clashed against hers then another and another. Satsuki, lei, ryouta and shin were sitting around Yona.
"This is gonna be fun" satsuki chuckled.
" Yeah.. this is great." Ryouta smirked.
"Well, we should do our best.." Shin said while opening the textbook.
"Well.. what is the assignment, anyway" Lei questioned.
As they were chatting Yona joined the conversation even though she was slightly confused. She felt so happy..
"Alright fishes." Mr. Edward spoke up. " I am going to give you a brief introduction of the lesson and you have to figure out the rest. And after that make a presentation with those groups you formed and bring them to me. The group gets the highest marks will win the contest."
Students started whispering and some already gave up seeing Yona's group. After all the team she formed is a legendary team..
...
Mr Edward finished his lesson as everyone started working on their assignment. 3 days were given to complete the assignment. Yona and others planned to meet after school to finish up the assignment.
And just like that school hours slowly came to an end as Yona and Ryouta made their way to the badminton club.
