SARAH'S POV:~
Location~Rooftop
That purple haired boy was in front of me. His age is sixteen, same as mine, but his brain is on a different level. His atmosphere is always so eerie, or maybe only I think so
"Mind telling me why you called me here?"- I asked Luca
After class, he signalled me to come to the rooftop, since I was thinking about the thing he said to Leon, I thought It would be good to hear what he wants to say.
"Just wanted to give you some advice, can I?"- Luca exclaimed with a faint smile as always
"Sorry but I'm not interested in taking any advice from someone like you!"
"Oh really, even if it's about... Leon? Oh come on, I know you like him. Want me to help you get closer to him?"
"W-Whanna you af- I mean, what are you after?"
"Means I was right"- he said with a grin
It's the first time I want to punch a classmate.
It's not like I can actually punch him, leon will antagonise me if I punch him.
"Whatcha thinking?"
"Why would you of all people, help me?"
"I'm also your fan, you know. So I want you to be happy"
"Will you just stop lying please?"
"If you really wanna hear, then alright. Leon has given up on life. If the situation will be as It is, then it won't be long when he'll commit suicide!"
"And how do you know that?"
"I've been his friend for more than five years, and I've never seen him this upset"
He thinks Leon is going to commit suicide just because of this. but he's right, I've never seen leon like this, he always used to study or do something in his mobile in the classroom
Let's see what he wants to say first
"Ok I'll trust you. But I have one last question, will you answer this honestly?"
"Shouldn't that depend on your question"
sly bastard
"why did you befriend him? I mean, there's nothing in common between you two, you both are polar opposite"
"How do I say it? He's amazing. He just never gives up, if he starts something, he does it to the very end. He's bold, unscared of anything"- he exclaimed joyfully, as if he admires Leon
Really? If this sly bastard, who always looks down on others regards him that high, then maybe there is really something special about him.
"But what does this have to do with you?"- I asked him
"An actress who is always in the light would never be able to understand. Still, let's put it simply- I want to make him my business partner"
"It's really complicated for me"- I said while motioning my hands that I'm having difficulty to understand.
Still
"I know your dad is a famous businessman and in the near future you'll take his place, but isn't it too fast to start planning for this far in the future right now?"
"The business world is way too different and shadier than your world. We don't have the genetic cream like you do. The only way of success for us is predicting and planning about the future. There are also many things, but they're of least concern for you, queen"- he explained
Now I've started to understand it a little. He wants Leon to be happy so that Leon won't suicide. But, how could I do it? Leon is not even interested in me.
"Let me tell you a secret, we've even pulled some secret manuers. It still give me chills when I think how we infil- leave it. Do you remember last year's soccer game? The opposite team was very strong, which is why I forced Leon to play for our team. Our team nearly lost, everyone lost hope but he alone pulled a bold resistance, and, just like a miracle, we won"- Luca told me
He was going to say something else, and changed the topic. was it about infiltrating somewhere?
"Okay then tell me, how are you going to help me befriend Leon?"- I asked him what his so called noble plan was
"I don't think I need to help you. Just tell him that you want to become his friend"
What the hell
"What if he refused?"
"He won't, he know how famous you are. If he refused, He will have to face the anger of the students of whole grade, if not school. He would not want to indulge in this trouble. The key is~you have to ask him in front of everyone"- he smiled merrily
If only he had put that much effort into his studies.
THE CURRENT SITUATION:~
LEON'S POV:~
"Would you like to go home together?"
When I turned around, I found that it was sarah, full name~Tokino Sarah. Those beautiful red eyes that could devour anyone by just one look. Well, people themselves would want to be devoured by them. Those eyes, with silver eyelashes, were looking directly at me.
One of her hand was playing with her long, elegent white hairs. She is waiting for a reply. And her face? As if I'd look at it. It's too dangerous for a dull boy like me. At worse, I might even end up falling for her. everyone's gazes are fixated on me, at least that's what it seems to me.
Oh shit, I forgot. You are supposed to respond in a conversation.
It's really unexpected, what should I say. someone of that Caliber wants to go home with me. But why?
seems like a trap
"Oh Sarah, I would love to. but you see, I always go home with Luca, I'm really sorry"
"Okay but, where is he?"
When I looked over the class, I found that I was in the worst situation, he has already left.
What a bad coincidence, now I have no choice.
"looks like he has already gone. okay wait"- I asked her to wait
I swiftly put my notebook and pencil in my bag.
We started walking together, I was keeping distance in mind
"Hey, why are you walking so far away from me?"
"I thought since you're a famous actress, it would be better to maintain at least this much distance"- I exclaimed
"Of course I'm an actress, but not in a school. so feel free to treat me the same way you treat your normal friends. if you have, that is"
Did she just made fun of me
After taking a quick peek, I found that no one is around us, not enough to hear what I'm going to say, otherwise it would be embarrassing for me
Then I said that
"Hey Sarah, as far as I know, you go home in your car. And that would be really unpleasant if-"
"Don't worry, our houses are in the same direction. I will drop you wherever you want. if you want, I will drop you to your house too."- she said while while smiling
She didn't even let me complete my sentence.
But, why is she behaving like we're very close friends. Let's leave it for now, I have many things to do today, so I don't wanna waste time in these types of things.
Most importantly, I have to think about how I should die.
