the brown-haired boy was intrigued from the moment he laid his eyes on you in the infamous lunch hall.

the way you held yourself so proudly. the fighting spirit which encapsulated you; drowning any care that you had on the opinions of your peers. he enjoyed the smallest of things about you; taking in each fragment of you and locking it somewhere safe inside of him to never be found.

the cold reality was, he could only bask in your presence from afar. your two worlds could never collide, danger would be imminent. it swallowed every segment of him internally however, becoming a person worth hated by you was the most effective way to ensure distance.

the very same distance, which he had worked so hard to keep, was shortening as the more athletic boy chased the girl down. he was transfixed on her ponytail swaying with each stride she took.

"y/n stop!"

flinching at the growl heard in the young man's voice, she came to a sudden halt.

"tell me that what I just saw was you guys just role-playing. you were just playing a game. it was all a sick, twisted game wasn't it?"

your voice was shaking, each syllable becoming harder to speak as your throat started to clam up. you hadn't been able to quite comprehend the sight and the objects which the school gym possessed. questions were flurrying in and out, nothing made sense.

despite barely knowing you personally, oikawa's heart ached with pain upon hearing the twinges of fear which were laced in your voice. you sounded so uncharacteristically small, the usual flame inside you diminishing.

tears were dripping off your face like a waterfall flowing freely. the metallic surface catching the little piles of crystallised tears which fell.

you were visibly trying so hard to pull yourself together, no doubt telling yourself that it's all a joke even though the both of you knew the obvious truth.

"i-"

"no. don't even tell me, i don't want to know."

the firmness was evident in your voice, you were a strong believer in blissful ignorance.

"listen, you weren't supposed to see that."

"you think I wanted to. guns. actual guns. that's illegal i hope you know"

"illegal guns aren't the worse we've done."

"you mean you've killed people?"

startled by the sudden and frankly quite morbid question that had been asked by you, oikawa was left speechless. his silence confirming your suspicions and unconsciously more fear crept its way into your body.

the question seemed to have slipped out, you did not even want to know the answer to the horrendous question despite being cursed with it. running away seemed the easiest way out of this, take a time machine and rewind so you could prevent yourself from ever seeing these things. that was unrealistic though and you knew you had to deal with the issue head-on.

dragging a calloused hand to his tousled hair, oikawa had an awkward face plastered on his pale-stricken face, replacing the usual cocky demeanour which he was infamous for.

"look i'll get straight to the point with you-"

every nerve in your body was overwhelming your senses, telling you to escape from this dangerous situation. almost as if it was foreshadowing the words which we were going to leave oikawa's lips next.

"because you saw the truth of our gang, normally that would mean we would kill you."

all colour drained from your body faster than a 100m dash. you stayed rooted to the stiff, wooden boards of the corridor. this was it, you were going to die. you had not even done half the things written on your bucket list, you did not tell your parents how much you loved them or even hikari for that matter. you refused to let your life be wasted like this but knowing the power advantage oikawa held, you did not want to take a chance by speaking up.

so you listened obediently.

"however since you're young and we attend the same school, we will spare you."

a sigh of relief escaped however you had a habit of celebrating too early as you noticed that oikawa still had more to say.

"on the one condition that you can not and i mean CAN NOT utter a word of this to a single soul. if you do we will not hesitate to take out you and your family, okay?"

you thought that that would be easy enough since you did not dare remember any of this anyways and would not dare be stupid enough to go against a gang let alone its leader.

"oh, and you will have to become our manager so that we can keep surveillance on you at all times~"

"sure, do whatever you want."

WAIT WHAT-

what did he just say? his was out of order, you were not becoming involved with gangs. it simply was not in line with your moral compass.

"see you after school then-"

"manager!"

the cheek in the gang leader's voice had returned and the air suddenly seemed lighter than it had been.

"n-no you got it wrong. i didn't mean to agree- i-"

your attempts at pleading were futile because when you looked up, you saw the boy was already halfway out the door. probably returning to the gym to do unholy things.

you shuddered at the thought of what the 'volleyball team' might be doing in there but then shuddered, even more, knowing that you were soon to be a part of their shenanigans.

standing in the corridor dumbfounded, the swarm of students began to swallow you as the bell rang; signifying that the period was over.

the weight of your own body became too much for your brain to handle and felt heavy to keep upright. you collapsed on the floor, head in hands at the dawning realisation as to what had just occurred.

what had you gotten yourself into?
