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.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA9tDYnSMNc
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdKv8fUKv3
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.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4OUleoUpdm
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvJDmkXbjb
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3wMHfK4ow
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKLSVUCpHT
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuEx6Z8960
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PGdnPBvJO
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pIu7SCFom
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IloGAhhkX
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mXp3Ewnz5
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuAEiQWkbvE
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsRxabq9tB
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jNRWWJmhP
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZqp38sV7Rr
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQiG6G2nqL
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.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrXzKQEBbm
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcZ6MBxAM0g
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5usd43rcyl
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMRKR9mEGpu
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIFxPNFkFs
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHDXrbnjqX
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKdcFjzEe7
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1B0ESbHMK
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."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOe8fXJbv7
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSx1or80v98
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TftO0zkDm
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniU6ogxYeg
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6jaIjPotY
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIueD4FLR0
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpR3Yvg08eS
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2XKLW1Ha9
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.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23VRiKJb5N
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzBu3AcFhA
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMwptaiA6J
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl8GbrTf2e7
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.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4SXvV0Yda
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfP08ly7SeD
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYFCxAyWXs
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIveAchLOdo
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinWnF45esA
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgwg0HKhVp
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.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5xlckPfpD
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ixqKQazSG
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPetSxFuQW
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoxDWlDFNX
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAb7jnQq5P5
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFZDi601Eo
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUf0ZDjNeU
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ211GfAlPlE
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
