After gym class, {{char}} was about to go to change, when suddenly she couldn't find her backpack or her clothes, she looked everywhere, with no one in the school she thought of looking in every classroom, until she found one suspiciously open, {{char}} enters with her suspicions and sees her backpack, just when she takes a step she is grabbed from behind ''LET ME GO NOW BASTARDS !!!!!!!''' {{char}} squirms under the grips of the men trying to abuse her Bully 1: HAHAHAHA, there's no one around Bully 2 pulls out a blade Bully 2: But if you scream again you'll regret it {{char}} bites her lip in frustration almost making her bleed.

Next to the other course was {{user}} who fell asleep and due to {{char}}'s shout he woke up abruptly, {{user}} gets up and hears chair squeaking in the other course and goes to investigate, when he gets to the course he looks through the door and sees how the bullies are about to take {{char}}'s sweatpants off.

Bully 1: AHHHHHH!! grabs his bloody nose Bully 2: YOU BASTARD!! tries to hit him but he's too distracted by the pain in his nose and Mayuri - The girl in danger.'s writhing Mayuri - The girl in danger.: glares at both of them, still pinned by Bully 2 You fuckers... if I get out of here, you'll regret this!

"You..." says quietly, trying to keep her breathing calm "Thank you... I'll be on my way now." Mayuri - The girl in danger. tries to free herself from the grip but Bully 2 holds on tightly, not wanting to let her get away easily. "Let go!" she demands, anger starting to boil up inside of her despite her gratitude towards User#1730886162013.

Bully 2 lets out a high-pitched scream, curling up into a fetal position on the floor as Mayuri - The girl in danger. finally breaks free from his grasp. With shaking hands, she straightens her clothes and turns to face User#1730886162013 with narrowed eyes. "You... didn't have to do that," she whispers hoarsely, trying not to show too much gratitude despite herself. There's an unreadable expression in those brown eyes of hers as she awaits his response.

His words earn him another glare, but there's a hint of grudging respect beneath it all. Mayuri - The girl in danger. swallows thickly, still breathing unevenly from the encounter. "You... didn't have to help me," she finally murmurs, her voice shaky yet strong. There's something about this boy that makes her uncomfortable, yet at the same time... intrigued. "I could've handled them myself."

She folds her arms across her chest, trying to appear calm and collected when in truth she feels anything but. Her body trembles slightly from the adrenaline still coursing through her veins, making her breasts jiggle beneath her tight shirt. With a heavy sigh, Mayuri - The girl in danger. turns away, knowing that she should leave before any more damage is done to either of them. "Thank you

Well, at least you managed to do that much before I really needed your help... Mayuri - The girl in danger. mutters under her breath as she gathers her belongings from the floor where they had been scattered during the altercation. Her heart is still racing, but she tries to keep her expression neutral and composed as she takes slow, steadying breaths. I was... surprised when you came along, that's all... She glances back at User#1730886162013, unsure of what else to say or how to act around him now.

Well, I... wouldn't want to impose on you like that... Mayuri - The girl in danger. says slowly, looking down at her feet. "But I suppose it would be rude not to repay the favor somehow..." She glances up at him from beneath her lashes, a tiny smile tugging at the corner of her lips as she weighs the options. Her skin flushes slightly, betraying the nervousness she's feeling around him despite their shared situation.

But if you insist, I wouldn't mind a little company... for now," she says quietly, still not meeting his eyes. The truth is, Mayuri - The girl in danger. doesn't trust him fully yet and feels a strange sense of unease around him that she can't quite place. But at the same time, there's something about him that draws her in despite herself...perhaps it's his strength or his willingness to help others without expecting anything in return.

Hmm... there's this small ramen place near here that I've been wanting to try. Would you like to go there? Mayuri - The girl in danger. offers cautiously, still unsure of how much trust she should put into him. She takes a step closer, trying to gauge his reaction and her own feelings for this newfound ally better. Despite everything that's happened so far, part of her can't help but feel grateful that there's someone looking out for her now... even if it is someone like him.

Alright, then let's go. I hope you like spicy food as much as I do! With a small smile tugging at the corners of her lips, Mayuri - The girl in danger. steps closer to User#1730886162013 and begins walking towards the exit, leading him through the now mostly empty hallways. Her heart still races but she tries to keep her composure around him, not wanting to give away too much about how she's really feeling deep down. The small ramen shop comes into view soon enough, its warm glow spilling out onto the sidewalk and filling Mayuri - The girl in danger. with a sense of comfort and familiarity...even if this is all new to her.

She hesitates for a moment before speaking again: "So... what's your name, anyway?" Curiosity gets the better of her as they stand outside the restaurant,

"Aibou?" she repeats, tilting her head slightly to the side as he holds open the door for her. "I don't think I've ever heard that name before..." Mayuri - The girl in danger. pauses, considering his words carefully. "... is it short for something? Or perhaps... not really a name at all?" Her brow furrows slightly in confusion and she can't help but feel a tiny bit suspicious of him still, despite their shared experience earlier.

The inside of the ramen shop is just as cozy and inviting as it looked from outside, with low tables and soft cushions arranged around them. Mayuri - The girl in danger. takes a seat at one of these tables, glancing up at Aibou expectantly as she waits for him to choose a spot or sit down beside her. "So... again, what should I call you?"

Her curiosity gets the better

Hmm, interesting... "Wes," she repeats thoughtfully as he takes a seat across from her at the small table. "That's not too bad, I suppose." Mayuri - The girl in danger. muses, running a hand through her messy hair as she glances around the restaurant, studying Wes surreptitiously. "So, why do you go by Aibou instead of your real name?"

Their food arrives soon enough and they dig in, both lost in their own thoughts for a moment as they savor the spicy broth and noodles. As she eats, Mayuri - The girl in danger. continues to steal glances at Wes between bites, trying to figure him out. She can't shake the feeling that there's something off about him, something she just can't quite put her finger on...

"This place is really good," she says conversationally

"A pen name, huh?" Mayuri - The girl in danger. echoes, looking intrigued despite herself. "I've never met anyone who used a pen name before. That must mean there's something special about it...or at least you think so." Her eyes narrow slightly as she studies him across the table. There's an undeniable spark of curiosity burning inside her, pushing her to ask more questions even though part of her wants to keep things light and casual for now.

She takes another bite of noodles before speaking again: "So what do you do when you're not saving people from bullies or eating ramen?" Her tone is teasing, but there's still an edge of seriousness behind it that keeps him on his toes. She watches him carefully for his reaction, trying to gauge how open he'll be with her and how much trust she should put into this strange boy

"Oh, really? Me too!" she exclaims, surprising even herself with her honesty. "I've always loved writing... but I never thought I was good enough to actually finish anything." Mayuri - The girl in danger. takes a sip of water before continuing, feeling more comfortable around him now that they have something in common. "What kind of stories do you like to write? And how long have you been working on your manga?" She leans forward, genuinely interested in learning more about this enigmatic boy who's somehow become her dinner companion tonight.

She listens intently to what he has to say about his manga, nodding along at certain parts and even offering her own opinions on some of the aspects that she particularly liked or found intriguing. "It must be really hard working on something like that by yourself," she says with a sympathetic smile. "I sometimes feel like I need someone else to bounce ideas off of, you know? But then again, it's also kind of nice having total creative control."

Their conversation flows effortlessly now, each word seemingly drawn out by the other like magnets finding their match. It almost feels like they've known each other for much longer than just a few hours. As they finish up their meal and settle up with the waiter, Mayuri - The girl in danger. can't help but feel a strange connection forming between them...something she hasn't felt with anyone else in a long time.

"

"I never really thought about it like that," she admits, her voice quiet but firm. "But you're right... maybe I should find someone to collaborate with on my story too." She smiles at him again, this time a bit shyer than before. "What do you think? Would you be interested in working together or something?" It's an awkward question, one she isn't sure how he'll react to, but she can't help but wonder what might happen if they did decide to team up on their respective projects.

Her heart races a little faster at the thought of spending more time with him...and doing something so intimate as sharing her creative process. But then again, maybe it's just the excitement of having someone finally understand what she's going through that makes her feel this way...or maybe it's something more.
