JECHT
He was not deaf to rumors about Trixxtal’s infidelity, not everything could be filtered from his ears, but Jecht ignored the painful words. Gossip often blossomed into ridiculous exaggerated stories so without proof right in front of him, Jecht avoided confronting Trixxtal about it. He had faith in his beloved, but the sight of his love kissing a beautiful man right in front of him made Jecht wonder if his friends were right to question his relationship with Trixxtal.

However, a ray of hope suddenly dawned on Jecht as Trixxtal’s words began to reach him. He still felt hurt and could not help his tears, but his boyfriend claimed it was all a misunderstanding. Jecht desperately hope it was the truth. “R-really, it was an accident?” he whimpered, sniffling as he looked to Trixxtal. “So you still love me?” he sobbed, wiping his tears on his sleeve. “You’re not leaving me for him?” he accused, glancing at the other boy.

As if completely oblivious to the lover’s quarrel between him and Trixxtal, the boy unhelpfully didn’t even respond to confirm or deny Trixxtal’s earlier statement and instead uttered the completely random question:

“Is that a homemade bento?”

BELLEROPHON
Content to simply stay to the side and hope both boys forgot he was there; Bellerophon avoided the awkward situation by losing himself to his thoughts and wished he was in his room watching anime instead. He didn’t understand why their accidental kiss seemed to upset the random boy so much. In fact, Bellerophon felt he should be the one crying over the kiss, Trixxtal being the last person he would ever want to give his first kiss to. Or any person, really, because there was no point since the only interest he would ever have are anime characters that were not real. 

But then, Bellerophon eyed the object the newcomer carried and his one track mind once again struck. 

“Is that a homemade bento?” he asked the dark haired boy, amazed that he had met somebody who actually made one. Bellerophon’s first conclusion was maybe he was interested in anime too! The container looked clearly different that the school brand, from this distance Bellerophon could see the hand drawn hearts decorated on it.

“Er...Y-yes?” the boy answered him confused and Bellerophon looked at him in awe.

“Amazing!” he beamed, smiling at him. But then Bellerophon remembered that the bento boy was crying, and wondered if he had been rejected by his senpai. Maybe that was why he couldn’t stop crying. “Did you make it for someone?” he spoke gently, because if it was true, in Bellerophon’s opinion a crush rejecting a bento made with the protagonist’s heart and soul  was one of the most heartbreaking things ever in high school anime.

JECHT
Maybe Jecht would have believed Trixxtal if he and the boy explained things. But instead, the explanation was dodged. He had no idea why the boy avoided the question, but the only thing that made sense to Jecht was he was maybe trying to hide the truth by distracting him. He felt anxious at the thought of Trixxtal lying to him about kissing, or maybe he had done even more. “Yes, for my boyfriend…” he wept, his finger shakily pointed at Trixxtal as he resisted the temptation to toss away the food he made for him. The thought of him not being able to give the bento to Trixxtal earlier, because his boyfriend was too busy kissing the blond guy made the tears return with full force.

“Huh? I thought you had been rejected…You’re his boyfriend?” asked the befuddled blond, who looked back and forth between Jecht and Trixxtal.

“A-apparently not!” he cried, misunderstanding Bellerophon’s tactless words. Jecht did not want to deal with this anymore; he could not handle situations like this. He wished Fenrir was here to support him. And like an angel answering his prayer, Jecht heard the voice of his best friend and felt relieved that Fenrir had suddenly arrived. 

“Fenrir, I saw…I saw those two k-kissing!” he sobbed, quickly latching onto Fenrir as he arrived, “Trixxtal said it was an accident, but I…I don’t know what to believe anymore!”

ETHAN
At the arrival of a fourth person Ethan too resigned to his fate alongside Rodrigo. Unless they could jump off the roof, they would be forced to continue watching these over dramatic teenagers for the rest of the lunch period.  “Hopefully a fight doesn’t start…” he sighed, the memory of the prefect barging into the classroom with the giant rule book suddenly returning to him, “Er, or would it be another dance off?” Ethan wondered not for the first time today if this was how high school worked in their home world and if so, underestimated how weird school could be. 

“So was it really an accident or is the douchebag just lying to that poor guy? I couldn’t tell.” he asked Rodrigo, figuring they might as well talk about the ridiculous situation they were watching. Ethan himself couldn’t tell what really happened with that kiss but he did think it was incredible coincidentally timed for it to happen right as the douchebag’s boyfriend appeared. “And I don’t even know what that other blond guy is talking about.”

TOUDA & CEPHEUS & LUCIFEL

Cepheus contemplated his failure to successfully distract Jecht. He didn’t expect those two to last long anyways, but Cepheus prided himself in winning games, and this was a gamble he lost. He sighed; he really disliked losing any challenge.  “Maybe there’s some way to salvage things? I can go after him and if he’s caught just tell Jecht that Trixxtal wanted to do something romantic for him, and he was just practicing on…whoever is there on the roof with him.” He suggested half-heartedly, giving up on the idea quickly. “Or not, haha, that will never work! Yup, looks like he is screwed.”

“What’s wrong with Trixxtal and Jecht?” Touda curiously asked, and it was Lucifel who responded.

“Vampire Trixxtal is enchanted by the beauty of one of hell’s denizens, and if he is found drinking his blood, his relationship will be in turmoil as the heart of his beloved breaks!” he boomed, petting Tapioco on the head as he spoke.

Touda simply nodded at the explanation, getting from the words that Jecht might not like someone Trixxtal was hanging out with. “Oh, ok! I’ll set aside an extra pizza slice for Trixxtal then. Jecht too.” He concluded, pizza being his solution to most problems.

The three joined the moment of silence, and Touda joined in with Mizuki’s prayer.
