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.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5q6GJKGVji
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhDK1XWh0R
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.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7M11g4ZpIj
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7noJcGq5ml
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwUmQClLXf
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVzJapXp9Q
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MrBPuZhxW
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJv2yhzUcV
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIalEJExr7u
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkFXwQDqPn
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIuJfbU55j
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmI7RKMoKBP
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpecdCPRiqi
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJmDzvBIpI
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhxu90BeIv
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHHk15rbInU
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.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRdHBoWHLI
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhq2u51rjW
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvEacKVy80
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01xt8IvJKB
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZWa8PI2Dc
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GgKItMHIt
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfUXKKTTfY9
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1INtg3XcGp
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."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nN2VZ9b5Z
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2BmH44yV5
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBt4ybm1TR
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdAtEabpDI
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnp6yhdYQfK
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa6NN9JUBzo
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPP8vIzSao
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3cVh0vsFS
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.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv49tJ7VFcK
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡciRoRb8Gam
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgSpqQXjgX
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3xsrOsu3U
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.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9U3wbFcUL
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcEw6O2SLR
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0joqvN9Rvf
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJzjxgADDk
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRz28x1qmi9
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX837Ghd0s9
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.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHCQdnlEyML
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP49srenSY
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZDg9S4zQBM
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD1Bfm4rkf
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjJczu4UKJ
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9H5lmlckKa
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpFrZ4sym9
154Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvc1Z04jEwW
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
