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.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RnhDTAzlW

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.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz2Iv2Mqld
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UyaCg3qkl
"Jun!" Aiko exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with an intensity that made Jun uncomfortable. "I've been waiting for you."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ65cNBe8tQ
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMW8zr5U6r
"Uh, hi, Aiko," Jun said, trying to back away. "What's up?"198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZpgqLkZmb
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdAhx9nLpN
"I have something for you," Aiko said, holding out a small box wrapped in red velvet. "It's a gift."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R8I4epbWB
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfWd0tM5nue
Jun hesitated. He didn't like the way Aiko was looking at him, but he didn't want to be rude.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmiuOCx8gkw
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPRkXPdnZU
"Thanks," he said, taking the box.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTZ7C8GJLU
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZzF3s5ivf
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "I made it myself. Just for you."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkXSsMa1O2
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9cvUEK5Jr
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.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnt15gyjcn1
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYM6cepg2X
"What is this?" Jun asked, his voice trembling slightly.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQNLZoR9n9
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypPM51nnqR
"It's my special chocolate," Aiko said, her voice dropping to a whisper. "I put a little something extra in it."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EanGNfQEz
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCnxgkTgZc
Jun looked at her, his eyes wide with suspicion. "What do you mean, 'a little something extra'?"198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJR8zAOmaO
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak5L9v7zec
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."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3f120jndQs
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWwcYXHK1T
Jun recoiled in horror. "What?!" he screamed, dropping the box of chocolate. "Are you crazy?!"198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLJdPgbjNEq
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEZqRpsIqt
Aiko's smile widened. "I'm only crazy about you, Jun."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowxANd5Va2
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWY4rPiRq0L
Jun turned and ran, his heart pounding in his chest. He couldn't believe what he had just seen. Aiko was seriously disturbed.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIgr7YSJrh
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIBJlsu96I
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.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqPIV8uflx
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVSb4DyhvpX
"Jun, what's wrong?" Hana asked, her voice filled with concern. She had been watching him from across the room.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaOj9GwfyL
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA50dQSAjf
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.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv53LiISIgq
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBdq4LaLlQ
"It's nothing," he mumbled, trying to brush it off.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhwYHmjCfR
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYM870Al3bu
Hana didn't believe him. "You're shaking," she said, reaching out to touch his arm. "Tell me what's wrong."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWr90s6YxMC
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBIFe4gR9C
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.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUofGemdoG
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdU5FCxd2i
Hana's eyes widened in horror. "That's... that's insane!" she exclaimed. "You need to stay away from that girl."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJEoPwX4IZw
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpGuS6yowa
Jun nodded, his face pale. He had never felt so creeped out in his life.198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMf8aZ0uzwq
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRupHiavGz7
"I'm going to talk to Yuki about this," Hana said, her voice firm. "She needs to know what's going on."198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVVc6Tq8oj
198Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6GUt6ewhu
Jun was grateful for Hana's support. He knew he couldn't handle this alone.
