The next day at school, Jun was trying to avoid Yuki as much as possible. He was still mortified by the previous day's events and couldn't bring himself to face her.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7zmBEeB7h

As he was walking through the hallway, he bumped into Aiko, a girl he'd only ever seen in passing. She was known for her eccentric style and her slightly unsettling obsession with Jun.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1wEyBnyir
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzo8L7WxXZ
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMQImDnYin
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN46ZSIyrA8
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJHXuOCtsf
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1hFpTCGTy
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZcqcSaQXi
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGnN9wAUja
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpTJynhkJP
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAOjjAYmXq
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7RnTXtwP5
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8fNRWOdEc
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQFAzhfCB1
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2xbFYcG8s
Jun opened the box. Inside, he found a small, heart-shaped box of chocolate. But something about the chocolate looked... off. It had a strange, almost metallic sheen to it.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78cXE0n6wz
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXtHPeaPVY
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQIfEaEGBK
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIhgChfvti
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMbR57IEeR
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSkSmwOX0X
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFKHs9QZnq
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8MeqYX26L
Aiko leaned in close to Jun, her breath hot on his cheek. "I put a little bit of my blood in it," she whispered. "I wanted to give you a piece of my heart."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7ODwBvVZK
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOUIFLP3Js
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YnmMixLb1
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiIj4z65ge
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oZP1tGUUC
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxeVtoEr68
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvqJjss72Z
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlf3kTgGYS
He ran all the way to the library, where he could finally catch his breath. He was still shaking, his mind reeling from the encounter.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkRGSRNMSm
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKt3tH4inZ
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWDnAugsBI
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmuqc7TBjF2
Jun didn't know what to say. He couldn't tell her about Aiko's blood-infused chocolate. It was just too weird, too embarrassing.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIO7f3xxhP7
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡox1d6s6Y2H
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ71zJbvBm7G
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4L09xvsW8
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQetBxRE8Q
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBXuWFoePd
Jun sighed. He knew he couldn't keep it from her any longer. He told her about Aiko's chocolate, about the metallic sheen, about the blood.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBQWLxnC5d
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzFXKR7kND
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjshIw6riQs
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFFJN94Cg8
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoZTiM9yEi
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFrsxEWZo4
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBHXzgWFaM
123Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9rx05TBASe
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
