A Brother's Sacrifice

Every student went either to their homes or to their clubs. But a certain group of students were heading towards the storeroom. This group consisted of me, Kinoshita, Aki and Miyake.

Everybody was curious but nobody dared to ask us. All they know about is that Miyake is in big trouble because some of them knew about the incidents between Aki and Miyake.

Miyake was kind of worried but she tried to steel herself for what's to come. She probably knew that she was in a terrible situation.

Aki was leading Miyake to make it look like to the others, that she is the one who is obstructing the love between Miyake herself and Ryusaki.

Pretty much everyone knew about those two due to their lovey-dovey moments together, during and after the shoe locker incident. Most students were rooting for them secretly because of Aki's behaviour towards Miyake.

But now, it seems that Miyake is getting an execution and nobody can help her from the executioner's, I mean Aki's clutches.

Signs of helplessness and pity started to show on everyone's face. Some helpless people started to show hatred towards Aki. But, that's exactly what I wanted. Not only me but Aki also must be feared.

The reason was just a stupid one in my opinion. It was so that I wouldn't be left out being the only bad guy here. I know that it is unreasonable to do that but, I want Aki to know how does it feel to be hated by everyone.

It actually benefits me in some way. Aki would know about my situation better and would feel more empathy towards me, meaning that the probability that she would help me from difficult times would increase.

Anyway, me and Kinoshita were behind Miyake so as to not let her run away, but there was no need to do that. I think that after Aki has done those actions towards her, she wouldn't probably think about escaping.

....

The area around the storeroom was isolated, just like we predicted. The only time there will be some people is when their club activities are over.

*Bam*

That was the sound of Miyake being thrown towards the wall of the storeroom. Miyake was holding one of her shoulders and let out an agonised scream. That shoulder of hers must've been hurt pretty badly since Aki threw her like a small rock with enough force.

"You're pretty light Miyake. Have you been eating well?"

Aki was acting her role and it started really well.

"...What d-do you want...Fujimoto. Can't you...leave us alone? What have I done to you?"

Her frail voice was directed to Aki. Before, she would only beg me to stop bullying her. But now, she sees Aki more in the spotlight than me.

Aki slammed her palm against the wall near Miyake which caused her to really be shocked.

"Don't answer my question with another question!"

"...I-I'm...sorry..."

"Good. At least you have manners."

Aki retracted her hand from the wall, meaning that she forgave her this time. But I believe that there will be no next time.

"Ignore my first question and tell me, aren't you acting kind of high and arrogantly when you are hiding behind Ryusaki's back?"

"Y-You are really misunderstanding something here Fujimoto. I wouldn't do such a thing!"

*Slaps*

Miyake's cheek went red instantly when Aki slapped Miyake. This slap was the hardest one yet since it made such a loud and nice sound. But didn't Hitomi said that if she hits her, she will be in big trouble? Have I gone too far by telling her that I will handle it anyway?

Miyake was on the verge of crying, but Aki grabbed her cheeks with one hand which covered her mouth.

"Don't cry. Your face will be ruined again."

Miyake tried to hold her tears. At that brief moment, Aki heard a chuckle. It was undoubtedly me doing the chuckling. Aki questioned me.

"The hell you started laughing all of a sudden. Did you hit your head?"

I directed that same question towards Aki.

"Did YOU, hit your head?"

"...What do you mean?"

"You should've let her cry, that way her face will be ruined."

"I know. It's just so that Ryusaki doesn't know about this. If he knows that we've been messing with his girlfriend, then he'll inform the teachers and we will be in trouble."

"Hmmm. I guess you're right."

We were discussing but an unusual thing was noticed by me. Even in such an absurd situation, Miyake was slightly blushing.

'Why?'

Aki observed my face, which changed a bit. Turning her head to look at where I was staring, she understood why I was so confused. Aki seemed to be in the same state as me.

Ignoring that weird expression on her face, we proceeded as planned. My partner leaned near her head and sniffed her hair.

"Your hair smells good."

Aki c.a.r.e.s.sed her hair and fiddled it with both her hands.

"And really smooth."

She took another sniff at her silky hairs before grabbing it and pulled it to make Miyake feel really uncomfortable.

"Kyaa...i-it hurts...aaahhh..."

"I wish I could have those hairs."

I interrupted her again and said,

"Then go bald and do a hair transplant."

"Could you please shut your stinky mouth. I'm having a romantic moment with those hairs."

"A date with hairs? Weird." I muttered. I didn't know that Aki had such a weird fetish.

Aki continued to play with Miyake's hair. She took the end of the hairs and turned it around her finger. Little by little the hair around her finger became bigger.

Miyake's head was leaning towards the finger where her hair is being fiddled with. Her face showed discomfort and it was being shown more clearly as time goes.

At the corner of my eye, behind a tree, I saw a figure who was furiously looking at Aki. I told her to stay hidden well but she wouldn't listen to me, won't she?

I signalled her to get behind the tree more but she completely ignored me and continued to send some hateful glares at Aki. I decided to be alert of her and Aki so that she won't interfere with the success of the plan.

Aki continued to be the bully and the conclusion of our plan is steadily nearing to its end. Hitomi was starting to lose her patience and it looks like she's about to step in.

To be frank with you, I'm also kind of impatient. If that guy doesn't arrive, then bad consequences will fall upon us.

'Come on, where the hell are you!?'

After a few moments of my pessimistic thoughts, someone could be heard running. There were dry leaves lying around on the ground, that's why we heard someone coming as the leaves were making noises when stepped on.

At last, someone came to Miyake's rescue. Miyake's radiant smile was starting to appear in her face because the person that she wanted to see the most.

"What the hell are you doing to her, you f.u.c.kers!?!?"

Me, Aki and Hitomi were looking at that knight who was rescuing a damsel in distress.

In front of us was Ryusaki, breathing quite roughly and he was as angry as ever with us.

'Took you long enough, Ryusaki.'
