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.215Please respect copyright.PENANAlL5hPMgU8Z
215Please respect copyright.PENANAfAx3E35SVl
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.215Please respect copyright.PENANA3dTI8XPn55
215Please respect copyright.PENANAWJX68Mm7Pt
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."215Please respect copyright.PENANAQzmYuE2GrF
215Please respect copyright.PENANA2olJsWBxKg
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"215Please respect copyright.PENANARJOv3n96ys
215Please respect copyright.PENANAPgsK3uy2yV
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."215Please respect copyright.PENANAyXTOX0pcpM
215Please respect copyright.PENANADyHbgZwPSl
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.215Please respect copyright.PENANAw0UdQYK02G
215Please respect copyright.PENANASMHS0KHXTP
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.215Please respect copyright.PENANAEqo7rq0HXl
215Please respect copyright.PENANAt3F7x6fX9f
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."215Please respect copyright.PENANALFKjjhLUab
215Please respect copyright.PENANA4xO95x64SR
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.215Please respect copyright.PENANAWretYDEvfs
215Please respect copyright.PENANAYDNKWJJPFf
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.215Please respect copyright.PENANAhmAOr5Ywc3
215Please respect copyright.PENANAfS5ekc1Elo
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."215Please respect copyright.PENANART9YKQLYIV
215Please respect copyright.PENANAWD8lY5ycLq
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"215Please respect copyright.PENANAIfdXwGgG3z
215Please respect copyright.PENANAcSUxnB1l3P
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."215Please respect copyright.PENANAp6SW21CNie
215Please respect copyright.PENANAnRUOYmX98p
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"215Please respect copyright.PENANAeGCPTuTMnA
215Please respect copyright.PENANAA6hqL0Vx0r
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."215Please respect copyright.PENANALglX0zAdIA
215Please respect copyright.PENANAuoxgrX2quL
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.215Please respect copyright.PENANA60ARcekQTl
215Please respect copyright.PENANA83oXEKTSFb
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.215Please respect copyright.PENANATgZ8RkQpt7
215Please respect copyright.PENANA5D9X1MztHu
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.215Please respect copyright.PENANAJSXGaQyh8M
215Please respect copyright.PENANAofVHGIwoUd
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.215Please respect copyright.PENANAQCVAg5m4I2
215Please respect copyright.PENANAjfhfCLLKAR
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.215Please respect copyright.PENANAd8RvoM1bAw
215Please respect copyright.PENANACQpRrts7qy
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."215Please respect copyright.PENANAW93zdRj2Kn
215Please respect copyright.PENANAgzNUfQH6mW
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.215Please respect copyright.PENANAzaDlCWO91b
215Please respect copyright.PENANAXdCOUmQxHo
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."215Please respect copyright.PENANAuQXPTKeB9K
215Please respect copyright.PENANARBk9f2Qc5O
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.215Please respect copyright.PENANA9p741aGkdA
215Please respect copyright.PENANAYg9apJnG0e
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."215Please respect copyright.PENANArxl1qjd48o
215Please respect copyright.PENANANwMSe2tkxm
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
