113 Aghh!! 1

(Akira's POV)

Hikaru didn't come to the school the next day. I went to the teacher's office to turn his sick letter. His condition didn't get any better this morning. He didn't talk and just eating his breakfast quietly and went to the study room.

He chose to work than going to school. Big sis noticed his odd behavior so she let be for now. Hikaru nodded thankfully for her understanding. I looked at Hikaru with undescribed feeling. 'I'm his brother, I wish I can help him somehow. I hope he will open his heart to me.' That was what I wished this morning.

I went inside the classroom and heading toward Yukino and others. As they started talking. I accidentally heard the girls in my class gossiping not so far behind me.

"Did you hear? Another girl went missing!" All of them were murmuring 'scary' or 'oh no'. The girl with long hair continued, "Guess what, how many times this happens in our school? It's the second time! Last month, it was Kira from class 2-5, and last week was our kouhai[1] Rena from class 1-6!

"Did their parents reported to the police?" A girl with short hair asked curiously.

"Un! They are still searching for them, it turns out not only from our school. The others too! Didn't you see the news this morning? From Sakura High School, three girls and Tsuki High School, two girls!"

"So, it's related!"

They gasped and couldn't help to feel afraid inside. I frowned when I heard that. What has really happened in their neighboorhood lately? They gossiped more as I trying to get back focusing on Yukino's story once more.

He got chased by cats this morning! Yes, it wasn't a dog. It turned out he mistook catnip alcohol as a perfume. He cursed his sister for messing around with the bottle in their house! I chuckled and told him he was just unlucky today.

The bell school rang and the students took their original seat once again. Our homeroom teacher came into the class and gave a short announcement. He said, "Alright, stop talking and don't comment first. Listen to what I have to say. For girls, the school warned you to never leave the school ground alone without someone accompanying. They advised you all to go home right away with your driver or together with your friends. Don't wander outside alone until the situation redeem. Is that clear?"

"Yes, Sensei!" The girls answered. He continued, "No exception for boys too, is that clear?"

The boys were whooping. "Eh~? Sensei! Why us too?" Yukino asked.

"I said, no exception. This is our school policy, it's for your safety after all. That's it. Now open your book on page 180. Kudo-kun, read the sentence and answer it."

"Y-Yes!" I was startled from my name being called. I stood up right away and answered the question.

...

After class, I excuse myself from Yukino and the others. I was holding my stomach when the class starting. It was painful and my face turned to red. But I covered it with my usual normal face, so nobody noticed. I went to the school toilet and relieved myself there.

I had planned to go to the school health unit now, I didn't know why my stomach was hurting. Was this because of the milk I drank? Or was this because of Hikari's homemade breakfast this morning? Yes, that was definitely it!

I should never let her try something she never did before. In the first place, why did she suddenly had an initiative to make a bento for her brothers today? I sighed from my sister's behavior became weirder each day.

"Excuse me." I went inside the health room and noticed there was no one here. 'Sensei probably still in her break.' I thought. So, I searched the medicine for my stomachache. When I found the medicine suddenly I heard a grunted from someone.

"?!" 'Who is it?' I asked inwardly.

I heard a panting sound from behind the bed curtain. I began to panic. 'What? What? What? Are there a couple shamelessly have s*x in their school?! You must be kidding. The school is not over yet!'

Awkwardly, I tried to leave the room, yet shortly I heard a faint voice. "It's hot...help..." I halted my two legs. This voice sounded familiar. I frowned and went to the curtain side. I opened it and looked at the boy laying on the bed.

His face was red and he was drenched by perspiration. Jun?

When did he come to school? Wasn't he supposed to have his filming going on?

I reached my hand held his forehead. It was hot! I asked him, "Jun, are you okay? You have a fever. Did you drink a medicine?"

He nodded his head and he grabbed my right arm. Hmm?

I heard him saying misleading words, "It's hot help me." Deg! Hm? What was that? Did his heart just skipped a beat?! To Jun?! To a male?! To a freaking male?!

No, no, no, no, that was impossible.

I looked at his red face again and his moistened eyes. Why did he look cute? No! What? Agh!!!!

What's wrong with me?!

This was all started from that summer camp a month ago. I didn't know why I felt weird whenever I saw him. When I saved him from the drowning in water, I still remember the process I helped him. How I looked at his pale face and his soft lips touching mine. How he held my hand along the way. How- Aghhh!!!! No! No! No!

No way! Forget about it Akira! He's a man! He's a national boyfriend! You are a man!

Coughing, I adjusted my eyeglasses and heard him saying once more, "Hot...help me," He tugged my uniform and I was startled.

I looked down again and seriously answered him. "Do you want a wet towel? Wait for me as I help you." Before I left I heard him groaning. He tried to open his buttons but he couldn't do it.

I shook my head from the sight. 'What's with this weird view?' I approached him and helped him unbuttoning for a second. He moaned when I accidentally touch his chest. I blinked my eyes a few times.

I drew my hand and felt something weird like a lump in his chest. I felt I touched something forbidden. I was curious. Did Jun was wounded when filming? How bad could the workplace be? I frowned and ordered him, "I will change your bandage for a moment. Get up a little I will take it off."

He moaned, "Wa-Wait..." I didn't hear his muttered and quickly change his chest bandage. I grabbed the new clean clothes and realized something wasn't right.

I looked at his chest wondering what was wrong with it. Why it was twitching and growing larger? Unconsciously, I reached my hands to touch it. I fondled it and he let out a moaned.

But this time it was strange. I felt something tickling inside. I didn't know what it was. He slapped my hand who kept fondling his chest. I didn't know why I still did that. He reached his hand to cover his chest and glaring at me with his blurry eyes.

My hand was still in mid-air. I took a step back and bump to the iron pole curtain. It hurts! But My focus was still in his body. I was dumbfounded from it. I gasped and my eyeglasses were crook.

I shouted, "You are a girl?!"
