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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGe9niC7jvI
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCW9GfFdC4
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cecWC7xyh
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKQjiEsLL1
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuzr7gVAqC
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe8AXLCBqmu
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KrCFVHSbm
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibFqI5F8ND
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwg7aQcu9mS
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbn3FcMg65
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0uUjvNUuJ
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiEAJeusiJ
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYKr2T4Bodc
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmZflN9oJB
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEuQjW4w8Q
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkJAfTGa8J
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡamSULJovxD
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVcvDf5Bim
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXswBzqdG12
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2QI0ImmIn
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbruCaRKMVM
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs8EitbhJQ
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX2WrYG4co
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NpyKI8VL7
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."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFVtL8Eh5J
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLphxvIiB8t
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYk3A2B6uf
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv05TGdM4a5
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDrh6dC3hix
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNxb8Qg302
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoJxq7TZ3ni
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7NsrmAzus
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8zOr0qc39
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1ubbOpydO
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwkbFauIHT
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qV3X9wU2z
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS35z3YJTrI
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemWz6spj5f
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlX8zQz2q9d
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ4Wt5c9YvW
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO2HKpVawRU
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zgPSzk3V8
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.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7BVzsBKSz
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqv8vkgwwa
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJ7p89qgzN
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iKRLnpnur
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvRpEbATTQX
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpJ2Wtzk3SE
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb7Ow9udZxQ
214Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6LjD9Oi4T
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
