Hello, everyone! It's me again. Gosh, it has been FOREVER since I last made any fics. But, as per request (and me deciding it was time this old thing had a sequel) by Minami Shimada (thanks girl, had you not talked to me, this thing would probably have never been published.

So, uhm, since I'm only just recovering from a writer's block, I have absolutely no idea, nor any guarantee, that this will be any good. Heck, I don't even remember the main plot for this, but you know. I'll just wing it, like I always do.

Anyways, I hope you all enjoy this.

The students of Fumizuki Academy have always been a wild bunch, all lively and joking and full of fun. But most people would agree that of this set of weird, unique people, the wildest of them all is the idiot class of the second years, Class 2-F.

This morning wasn't any different, not really. In one corner of the classroom, their class president, Sakamoto Yuuji, was busy trying to get rid of a certain girl from class 2-A, Kirishima Shouko. They have what one would call a "complicated" relationship.

Today Shouko was, for the umpteenth time, trying to get Yuuji to sign some absurd marriage contract, even though she knew fully well that they were leaps and bounds too young to actually get hitched.

"…Yuuji." She went, trying to get the tall man's attention.

"What, Shouko?" Yuuji asked, impatient. How could she be bothering him at this hour?

"…Let's go watch a movie tomorrow."

"No," was the immediate reply.

"…If you don't then…" she withdrew a tazer from who knows where. The marriage contract soon followed; her other hand clutching it. "…then we'll get married."

"Okay, okay fine! I'll pick you up at 10." Yuuji surrendered, powerless by the smaller woman's blackmailing.

In another corner, Kinoshita Hideyoshi and Tsuchiya Kouta, better known as Muttsurini, were having an animated conversation about…something, nobody really knew what. Probably something about Hideyoshi not being a girl, or some perverted thing again.

Himeji Mizuki was by one corner, by the window, reading a history textbook. She was probably the only one in Class F who actually cared about her grades. Every once in a while, she looked up, said hi to her classmates, and looked in a certain idiot's direction.

Said certain idiot was, for some reason, being interrogated by the FFF Inquisition.

"What's going on?" some classmates asked. It wasn't unusual that Yoshii Akihisa would be interrogated – well, interrogated wasn't really the proper term – by the FFF, it was just odd that they were doing so at such an ungodly hour, so early in the day.

"Yoshii Akihisa! You are deemed guilty by the FFF Inquisition! Punishment?" the FFF leader, Sugawa Ryō, yelled, while the other members of the Inquisition held Akihisa captive.

"G-guilty of what?! What did I do now?!" Akihisa answered, struggling with the ropes they used to tie him down. "I'm innocent! I didn't do anything!"

Akihisa's pleas were pointless as the boys debated on the perfect punishment.

"What did Akihisa-kun do, Sugawa?" Himeji, curious, asked, turning her face away from her book to address the chaos that was the Inquisition.

"Himeji-san help me! I didn't do anything I swear!" Akihisa pled, as his captors were getting closer on deciding what form of punishment he'd have to take for a crime he didn't even know he did.

"Well, Himeji-san, if you must know, sources saw Yoshii alone with a girl at the rooftop last week! We think it was a love confession! We even heard that he wrote this girl a love letter! He must be punished!" Sugawa answered.

"Eh? Akihisa-kun confessed to someone? Who?" Himeji asked, putting the book down, looking right at Akihisa.

"W-what? I did not confess to anyone! That's wrong, it's not true Himeji-san!" Akihisa yelled.

"Then why did you see you with –" a member of the FFF goes, only to be interrupted by someone entering the classroom.

"Ohayou, Minami-chan." Himeji piped up, greeting her friend, possibly the only other female student in class F, well, not counting Hideyoshi.

Looking up, Minami smiled – or at least tried to – at her friend. "Ohayou, Mizuki."

"What's wrong, Minami?" Himeji asked, not noticing the commotion of the FFF dying down, and Akihisa trying to avoid looking at the redhead.

"Huh? Oh, it's nothing, nothing! Just…sleepy, that's all!" Said redhead replied, obviously avoiding meeting a certain idiot's eyes.

Shimada Minami sat by a corner, away from everyone, even from her best friend, whom she always sat with in class. People found it odd but nobody had the courage to ask her what was going on.

The morning bell rang and everyone scrambled back to their seats.

As the class went on, Himeji noticed something different about the class's atmosphere. She couldn't pinpoint what it exactly was, but she felt an uneasiness from the class, and she was looking for the possible reasons why. In one corner, she noticed that Minami sat away from the entire gang, pointedly far away, and she refused to look at anyone. She looked at her other friends, hoping for some sign as to why her only female friend was acting like this.

The rest of the class acted seemingly normal, some listening – or trying to listen – to the teacher in front, some pretending to listen, and some just sleeping in the middle of class.

There was, however, one other person acting oddly, as Himeji observed.

Every now and then, Akihisa would look at Minami's direction, with an expression of – what was that? Guilt? Sadness? She couldn't quite place what his look meant.

And whenever Akihisa looked in Minami's direction, said girl turned further away, obviously trying to avoid the boy's glances.

Himeji took a mental note to ask someone about this later.

~~~=w=~~~

Class droned on and Himeji struggled to listen to the teacher. She was too focused on the weird tension between Akihisa and Minami. What had happened between the two of them?

Suddenly, like a flash of lightning, a thought occurred to her.

Hadn't Sugawa and the others said something about Akihisa confessing to a girl the other day? They never said who the girl was but…

Was it possible?

Was Minami the girl he confessed to the other day?

She felt depressed for approximately a second until she realized it made no sense.

She knew Minami liked Akihisa as much as she did. Why, then, would there be this awkward tension between the two of them if he had confessed? Minami would have surely accepted his confession and they would have started going out, if he really did confess. There would have been a different atmosphere between them, not this weird one she felt right now.

Guiltily, she felt relieved that Akihisa hadn't confessed to Minami. She felt bad for feeling happy over it, when her best friend was in the far end of the classroom, obviously going through something horrible.

She went back to thinking. What if something else had happened between the two of them?

She turned to the people in question.

She would never know by mere guesses and jumping to her own conclusions.

~~~=w=~~~

The lunch bell rang and everyone huddled together, getting ready to eat lunch together.

Well, all except Minami.

"Oi, Shimada, hurry up so we can have lunch!" Yuuji called over to the still silent girl, who had not moved from her corner of the classroom.

She looked up, and for a split second Himeji noticed – what? Anger? Hurt? – in the girl's sharp green eyes. It faded before she could study it further, replacing whatever alien emotion that was with a cool dullness. She answered, "You guys have lunch; I'm not hungry. Excuse me."

She stood up and left the room, leaving the bento box her sister had most likely prepared for her.

Himeji's eyes followed Minami's slender figure leaving the room, and returned to see questioning looks on all but one person's face.

That person, as we all know, was Akihisa.

"What's the matter with Shimada-san?" Hideyoshi piped up, the question directed at the entire group.

Himeji noticed Akihisa looking away, trying to ignore the question.

Apparently someone else noticed it, or maybe everyone did, but only one person had the guts to point it out.

"Oi, Akihisa, what happened to Shimada?" Yuuji asked, unfazed and direct, looking at him.

Akihisa looked up, briefly, and then looked down. In a resigned tone, almost down to a whisper, he answered, unenthusiastically. "I didn't do anything."

Everyone felt that Akihisa clearly did not want to talk about it, but they all knew now that something definitely happened.

Himeji dared to ask the question she'd had in her head since earlier.

"Akihisa-kun…was…the girl that Sugawa-san referred to earlier…was it Minami-chan?"

Everyone turned to face Himeji, who was now steely-eyed, waiting for Akihisa's answer.

Akihisa took a deep breath, and everyone shifted their eyes from the pink-haired girl to him.

"Yes."

Well, there you have it! Chapter One! Ugh it's probably not that good. If you haven't read the prequel, *gasps* what do you think happened between Minami and Akihisa back then? And how will the others react to what happened? Tune in next time to find out! (Gahd I suck at cliff-hangers and narrations.) Well, if you want to, you can read the prequel to understand this more, it's entitled Decision.

For those who have read the prequel, *gasps again* what will happen next? What will Akihisa do about the two girls in his life? Tune in next time to find out!

And please, don't forget to leave a review~ And expect an update by tomorrow!
