This will take place during the killing school trip.

Hiyoko

"Hey! Barf face! Can you tell Mahiru to hurry up? She's taking forever!"

You

"B-Barf face? Why barf face? Couldn't you ask me to do that more sufficiently?"

Hiyoko

"Lemme think... Uh... Nope! Now go get Mahiru, thanks!"

You

At least she said thanks...

You walked to Mahiru's cottage to inform her that Hiyoko has requested her presence. Mahiru appeared exhausted and stated that she wasn't feeling well. You were concerned about Hiyoko's reaction.

You

"Well, Mahiru's saying that she's not feeling well, so she's going to stay inside of her cottage for today."

Hiyoko

"Agh! Seriously?!"

You

"What the hell?! Don't get mad at me! It's not my fault that she isn't feeling well!"

Hiyoko

"Who knows... Maybe you could've poisoned her food."

You

"I would never! You guys don't even allow me to eat at your table, so how could I have done that?!"

Fuyuhiko

"Stop fighting, both of you. You guys are so fucking immature."

Hiyoko

"Hmph!"

Hiyoko and you both walked away. For the rest of the day, you both went your separate ways.

The following morning, you all met in the restaurant.

Your face was red, and you were staring at a certain someone. Hiyoko noticed.

Hiyoko

"Hey, rotten tomato! Why are you so red this morning?"

No response.

Hiyoko

"Hellooo?! Answer me!"

You

"O-Oh... Huh? What is it, Hiyoko?"

Hiyoko

"I said, why is your face so red today?!"

You

Jeez... No need to shout. "My face is red?!"

Hiyoko

"Yeah, you dumb ass!"

You kept staring at that one person, and Hiyoko was finally able to tell who you were staring at just by looking at your eyes.

She gasped.

Hiyoko

"Why're you staring at them?!"

You

"Wh-What?! Shh!"

You covered her mouth with your hand as she tried to say everything she wanted about you staring at that person.

You

"Don't say anything, Hiyoko! I'll buy you gummy bears!"

Hiyoko

"Hm... Fair enough. But why were you staring at them?"

Your cheeks went pink.

Hiyoko

"Oh, I see... You like them."

You were expecting her to say it in a surprising and excited tone, but she said it in a saddening tone.

You

"Why do you sound sad? I thought you were gonna say something like: "You like them! I'm going to tell everyone! Haha!"

You made fun of her voice.

Hiyoko

Is this what Y/N feels like?... "Why do you like them?"

You

"Well... I don't wanna say."

Something was wrong because Hiyoko hasn't spoken to you in days and hasn't called you a derogatory name. You seemed perplexed.

During your free time, you decided to talk to Hiyoko.

*Knock knock knock!*

Hiyoko

"Eh? Oh... It's you."

You

"Are you alright, Hiyoko?

Hiyoko

"Yes, I'm fine. Why do you ask?"

You

"Well, you haven't called me barf face at all this week. I figured something might be upsetting you."

Hiyoko

"It took you long enough!"

You

"So something is bothering you?"

Hiyoko

"Yes! I was waiting for you to ask me what's the matter, but you weren't saying anything!"

You

"M-My bad... So, what's the problem?"

Hiyoko was deafeningly quiet.

You

"..."

Hiyoko

"..."

You

"H-Hiyoko? Are you gonna say anything?"

Hiyoko's cheeks were flushed.

You

"Oh! Are you catching a fever?!"

You approached her and placed your hand on her brow, causing her to flush even more.

She smacked your hand, backed away, and then collapsed.

You

"Hiyoko!"

You aided her in her ascent.

As you pulled her upward, she held your hand.

You

"Hiyoko, what the hell's going on?"

Hiyoko

"Ehh... What were we talking about again?"

You

"You've been ignoring me for the past week and I thought something was going on. So, what's the problem?"

Hiyoko didn't have enough time to concoct a lie, so she just told it like it was.

Hiyoko

"I like you!"

You

"You... You what?"

Hiyoko

"You're such a deaf pig! I-I'm not saying it again!"

You

"No, no... I heard you the first time."

Hiyoko

"Ah!"

Hiyoko's face then became red again.

You

"Oh... Now I see why your face is like that."

Hiyoko

"My face is like what?!"

You

"It's all red."

Hiyoko

"It is?!"

She couldn't get the redness out of her face no matter how hard she tried.

You

"Why didn't you tell me?"

Hiyoko

"Are you stupid?! If someone likes someone, then they would be too scared to tell them because they know that they'd just get rejected!"

You

"Hiyoko... Is that how you feel?"

She exclaimed, realizing she had been describing her feelings.

She looked downward.

Hiyoko

"Yeah, I guess so..."

She mumbled, you could barely hear anything. But you heard enough.

Hiyoko

"I was only calling you barf face and stuff cause..."

You

"..."

Hiyoko

"Cause...!"

You

"???"

Hiyoko

"B-Because that's my way of flirting! I try to hide my feelings by calling you names!"

You

That's... That's a rather weird way of flirting.

Hiyoko

"Don't say it's weird! I can't help it!"

You

Woah... Almost like she read my mind.

Hiyoko

"I was... I was ignoring you because I was jealous. A-And when I get jealous, it shows and I didn't wanna show it."

You

"But what were you jealous of?"

Hiyoko locked her gaze on you, then on someone else.

You

"Oh! You were jealous because I liked them?"

Hiyoko

"Well of course! When someone finds out the person they like is a different person, of course, they're going to get jealous, idiot!"

She protruded her tongue at you.

You

"Well, you don't have to be jealous anymore, Hiyoko."

Hiyoko

"Huh?"

You

"Cause, I like you too."

You smiled brightly and warmly at her, reddening her face once more.
