-Erika's Pov-

I once heard from a reliable source...

That...

We all can't help who we fall in love with...

I seen people be with that certain someone they like...others in relationships filled with lies.

I can't help but wonder...

Does love really exist?

If it does...Then why is so cruel...

Especially when...the significant person you like...gets snagged by someone else...

And when that happens... doesn't that make you angry...?

That's how I felt...when I saw Mei take him away from me...

Kuro Mirai...

The so called loner of Yongedu High.

His only friend was the popular yet perverted boy, Shouta Yamazaki.

People always did wonder why does Yamazaki-kun hang around someone like that...?

Some thought he was just paying him...

Others thought he was using him.

He begin to earned the title Jigoku Otokonoko...

Hell Boy or Demon Boy...?

Which didn't make any sense...?

Why does people think he's a demon...

To be honest...I secretly kind of felt sorry for him.

He was so...mysterious?

Tall...Dark...Handsome...

I surprised someone like him ended up as loner.

He's...well in a way...kind of cool.

I wanted to talk to him...

I wanted to get to know him?

I wanted to be his...

Is this...what they call love...?

It feels amazing...

However...I kept my secrets at Bay because I didn't want Maki to find out...

She maybe my best friend but one of her victims were Kuro...

She teases him with those horrible words.

I wish she stop. But she was the Alpha of the school and I was the Beta.

I couldn't just tell her to stop. So I kept my emotions in tact until the time was right...I even join her in the little fuel.

Kuro...

Kuro...

Kuro...

I decided today will be the day I finally decided to talk to him and tell him how I really feel...

However...That girl...

Took it all away from me.

-Flashback-

In the hallways of Yongedu High, Erika was fidgeting a little.

Erika: Shit...I don't know what to say. Just 'hey Kuro, I'm sorry for bullying you for the past two years because I couldn't stand up to Maki? So can we hang out now?'....Yeah. That'll sound stupid.

???: Ugh..I'm telling you I don't want to go along with your dumb idea.

Erika jolted at the voice of Kuro walking down the hallway with Shouta, who had a pout on his face.

Shouta: Oh! Come on! Kuro! Please! You're supposed to be my wingman! I thought we were bros!!!

Kuro rolled his eyes.

Kuro: The answer is still no. The reason why you want to go to cafe is too see a bunch of girls in maid outfits.

Shouta:.....Oh man...Please Kuro... You're my only hope...If you help me this one time...I'll buy you yakisoba for the rest of the week...

Kuro did not look impressed...he looked a little irritable.

Kuro:.......Go get mauled by pack of wolverines.

Shouta went quiet until he broke into a run laughing like a maniac!

Shouta: HAVE IT YOUR WAY!!! I can get a girl all by myself~! Just you wait! I'll graduate from being a virgin soon! FYI, you're a total jerk and you have stupid hair!

Kuro:...You need to work better on your comebacks.

Erika: (What the hell was all that about...?)

She'll never understand Yamazaki-kun...Oh well...At least he keeps things lively here...

Erika: Now my chance...

Erika walked over to Kuro and was about to get his attention. But was soon interrupted by someone else.

Mei: H-Hi...Kuro.

Kuro: Oh hey Mei.

Mei: Would you like it...If sit next to each other for lunch...

Kuro: Sure...Since Shouta off being a pervert again. I'm a little lonely too at lunch.

Mei puts on a smile.

Mei: Okay~!

Mei clutched onto his arm and the two walked off...leaving Erika alone...

Erika:.....(Why that little whore...)

And that's when she told Maki about Mei being clingy to Kuro.

Then the rumors broke out and Mei's life of torment begin...
-----------------------------------------------------------

Kuro:.....So that's what this is all about...

He found Erika sitting alone in the darkness...

He didn't know...Erika liked him...

Kuro: So that's why you bullied Mei... because of me...

Erika: I know you'll be upset if I told you the truth...To be honest, I wanted to stop...I never meant for things to go this far...If Mei would never just poke her nose into other people's business, she would've gotten out of what we put her through.

Kuro: Erika...

Erika: I...like you Kuro...I like you a lot...

Erika walked over to him and gave him a hug.

Erika: Please...stay with me...

Kuro:....

No.

Erika: Eh?

Kuro: Do you really believe after all you done to Mei...You think I would accept your feelings?

Are you stupid? What kind of confession is this?

It makes me sick.

He grabbed Erika by her face which frightened her. His strength leveled her up in air. She tried to get out of his trip but was rendered useless.

Kuro: As much as I'm flattered with your feelings for me. But...your words are your own faults. All I see in front of me is a bully who would go through such links to hurt those when things don't go her way...and here you go again blaming Mei...

Have you learned nothing?

Erika felt fear grew inside as Kuro stared her down with those red eyes.

Those red eyes...Will never leave her...

Kuro: Erika...

Erika: Y-Yes...?

Kuro: Don't ever pry into my life again....

Erika: ?!

Kuro: There's just something about you that's driving me MAD...

I loathe people like you who look down on others because they can't get what they want. 

Your feelings DON'T matter to me.

Erika:.....

Erika wanted to cry hearing all that...it hurt...it really did...but...it doesn't even matter anyone...

She deserves it...

His dark eyes shown again...

Kuro: Maybe you all could make amends with Mei and start over again...

Then he started laughing bitterly. The red eyes returned!

Kuro:  Who am I kidding?! Let's not get overzealous here! Because you all have always been huge pieces of shit to her.

If I could kill you all, I would! Because it's too fucking LATE!

Erika: Y-You're heartless....

Kuro:....Heartless...? You want me to apologise for that?

Erika:........

Maybe this is Mei's punishment for her...Bring Kuro here...then taking him away again...

Now she knows...

Kuro will never be hers...

After all...

His dark heart belongs to someone else.

Kuro: Be thankful I got other matters to deal with. For now...Reflect on your actions aganist Mei...because of you and everyone else...she still suffering. That's why I will never like a girl like you...Wonder why...? Because...

YOU PISSED ME OFF.

Erika:....Okay...

The guilt was shown on her face...She didn't had to heart to face Mei...or anyone ever again...

Especially with the looks Kuro gave her that made Erika felt like a fly about to be squished by one of his shoe.

She was truly...pathetic...

Kuro: Good...

I LET YOU GO.
