[h2][b][u]Warakuma High School - 20/7/2015 - Monday[/u][/b][/h2]  

Katsuro whirled around at the voice to see Rui, the fellow from the hospital who had helped him get out of that...er...place. Whatever it was. He couldnt remember if he knew Rui very well, so he had no idea what to say. The crowd around them had thinned, although he couldnt tell if that was because of his cold look or simply because they wanted to go home. Katsuro couldnt tell what he would have preferred. There were still quite a lot of people still crowding around the board.

He was about to open his mouth to mutter something at Rui, only for another figure to walk towards them. He couldn't remember who this was, although the name Ryan popped to mind. Good. Now he could talk to them without looking a fool, as long as he remembered their names.

Then again...he looked at the three, realizing what he had gotten himself into. How did he end up like this? All he wanted was to ask the girl something, but now he was surrounded by people about to talk to him? And why did the girl look so...uncomfortable? Was it something he did? Was it his...markings?

[color=8e35ef] "Um..." [/color] He opened his mouth, letting the sound out but quickly realizing he had nothing to follow it with. What on earth had just happened? Why were all these people here?

[color=8e35ef] "I-i mean..."[/color] he stuttered. He had managed to be cheerful while talking to Kotomi, all he needed to do was think about what a good job he could do with her help, but now, she wasn't going to help him. And these other people were here. Still. What did they want?!?

[color=8e35ef]"I-i mean, i suppose this one exam might not be important..." [/color]he stuttered again, saying any rubbish in his head to put this new person at ease. [color=8e35ef]  "I-i'm sorry if...i just wondered...why did you get so high and..."[/color] he let it trail off, scratching the side of his face as he often did when he didn't know what to do, only to regret it when a shot of pain ran over his face from the sensitive skin.

He needed to think of something fast. He had been standing there saying random crap for about thirty seconds. What the hell could satisfy them?
[color=8e35ef] "I'm sorry K...Kotomi, i didn't mean to make you n-nervous. So...um...are you all friends? Can i join you? What do you all do?"[/color]

He paused for a moment, realizing he had said the first thing to come to mind again.
[color=8e35ef][i]"Oh shit."[/i][/color]

[color=8e35ef] "I-i mean, unless i'm making you all nervous too! Plus, i dont know where to go...i-in the event your answer is yes..." [/color] He trailed off again.
