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.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDhpHBjWO4

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.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qaAUJrzdB
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oJjdmhCmw
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wqqr8tImh
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DpvETjgzb
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFTS9uIK37d
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiq8Yacsat
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezYeBNeIda
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8S3X10iYK
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSlfKZaiYq
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt75jbPs5S
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zOMdylegG
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ijbQDehag
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhZOR8YLjx
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80hviVrJyV
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.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhot4iQ1Dw
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3OaRdnLxp
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tIXXp2EFQ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyCh9ncr5TD
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVrtpCMCfQ
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmjwJSfjKeT
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBXoFhNfqHC
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHbBqhaVgU
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."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwt4MaFOBI
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ75llLh87no
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tI9fZWN2m
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbyIEPvg9A
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvx8XLx0Dho
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn8rimHxPL
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PikR6kFEj
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJchJOf0MUJ
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.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEZCFaT66r
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjsJjkURL2
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwE3raTMeVw
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcMThev2Yr
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.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefu0nJmkn0
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxA4IZ4npyA
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOJybOfpcU
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYaBPsqiIBR
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1hnnufVxx
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5kQ7loi3sp
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.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH9B3DBglE
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqhTRS8u0QF
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXHBdc1HlA
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yDX3L4uiP
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzchuaQ5mG
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6BslC0hJJ
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO0z3NWk5g
277Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5QIWGn6zF
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
