(GS3) Field: Hoshiko High School

[Hope]

She pointed at Alexander, "You're Your Mom. By that I mean, I'm calling you Your Mom as a nickname!"

The papers on her desk were immediately stacked into a pile and placed into a folder which was then placed into her bag."Yeah, its pat of a project to improve the Umano community." She stood up from desk and decided that it would be nice to go grab a meal over at the cafeteria. Inviting Your Mom and Tsubaka over didn't seem like a bad idea.

"Wanna go get some food?" She asked, slowly walking to the door.

Somehow the crowd that was standing by was getting quite riled up, as if they were cheering for something to happen. She moved her head around a little to see what the fuss was about. It wasn't anything in the classroom. Among the crowd she spotted someone with hair, and so she immediately knew who it was now, no doubt about it. She blushed a little, remembering the night before. Even his scent was still on her right now. The whole situation was strange, but it excited her. They weren't actually dating- well they are but not in the orthodox normal kind of way-  they even have feelings for one another - its... complicated.

"Haruka-kun!" She enthusiastically called out and started waving.

The crowd went wild.

[AlwaysAwake]

"Oh." Was the sound a dumbfounded Alexander had made after both Tsubasas' pat and Hanas' reveal of his nickname. He was frozen, a shattering social defeat as all he could do was lay there for a moment. A cloud of sadness brewing around him as he forced his defeated form to trudge outside towards the cheering crowd, a glance given to the two lovers though only a sigh followed.

"Y-Your mom, huh." Mumbling out, sulking at the title he was given. Likely following the group silently for awhile.

[Jello]

It was loud. People were clamoring over him and the screams of heartbroken men and just as envious women filled the halls. On the other side of the spectrum, high schoolers who had the ship predetermined were giving a victorious hurrah!

Haruka could barely hear Hana coming out of the classroom, as well as Alex and Tsubasa. He waved back with a smile.

"Yahello, Hana!" He would've called out to the whole group, but he felt like giving the crowd what they wanted this time around. He approached her, taking one of her hands in his.

"Hey guys, glad to see you guys made it out safe with the Isabella Hope fan club around. What I miss?" Haruka directed his attention to the group as a whole, however he was maintaining eye contact with Hana.

Keeping up appearances and all.

[OverDrive]

It was official at this point in front of everyone, Hana and Haruka, though for Tsubasa something seemed off..This was mostly due to what Tsubasa remembered about Haruka a year back. Though it did clarify some of his thoughts regarding Yukino's recent behaviour, nevertheless he chose to just smile and go with it.

He nodded to Hana, accepting her offer, as he lead the seemingly broken Alex behind Hana. "..The fan club is strong it seems my friend,  it's good to see you as well man, I see that you're doing well for yourself." He said, replying to Haruka.

[Hope]

"Good Afternoon, Haruka-kun." She looked up at him with gleaming eyes.

With his hand interlocked with hers, she began to lead the group across the hall, whistles and cheers all around. While these high school students probably didn't talk to anyone important, word usually gets around fast. It was only a matter of time. Plus, if anyone spotted them leaving her house together this morning, that would be quite troublesome. But... enjoy the moment. She thought of just striking up casual conversation. They had a whole crew here after all, well, sort of. Your Mom looked somewhat defeated and it seemed as if he wouldn't be able to recover for a good bit of time.

"How's your guy's day so far? Oh, there's this event at the park I might want to invite you guys to once the date is set." Isabella asked and said as she walked through the halls.

[Jello]

Haruka still wasn't that great around groups. But that isn't what was causing Haruka to blush all of a sudden. Once he had a hold of Hana's hand, memories of the night before flashed through his head. The hands he been holding all night, amongst other things happening...

Needless to say it took longer to get dressed this morning than last time.

"I've been bombarded with questions about pretty much you. And us. Not much about me really, just you and me plus you. Something tells me your fanclub is having a fit, huh?"

Haruka turned the guys, specifically Tsubasa for a moment.

"I thought you said you were going to text me awhile ago? Just a reminder, I got no texts. So. We're gonna have to talk later." Haruka was throwing a little of his weight around for once, but only because standing next to Hana made Haruka really confident.

Not an excuse, just truth.

[OverDrive]

At least his confidence was improving, was the thought that came to Tsubasa's mind upon hearing Haruka's reply. He was right thought Tsubasa had mentioned that he wanted to speak to Haruka, but because of the events that took place at the hospital the day before he was unable to.

"..Heh..you got me there." he said, his hand on the back of his head.

"..I had a little...situation at the hospital so I was very occupied, besides we can't talk now anyway, I would not want to steal you from Hana right now." he said, lowering his hand and smiling.

[AlwaysAwake]

Alexander remained the broken man that he had been reduced to by the horrible nickname, tears might have streamed down his face if his pride wasn't so shattered that crying as a visual effect lost its touch and only despair was left. Though, as time passed he began to perk up ever so slightly, coming to as his usual self was piecing together bit by bit.

Though as such, something finally began to seem odd in front of him, blinking blankly before voicing something that seemed to bother him for a bit. "Wait, Haruka. Didn't you used to date someone else? Uh.... Yuki something? She threw swords and had a real life Ezel carry her and all. I mean I'd like her number and all unless it's uh, too early." Stating the facts as he knew them with a curious yet honest expression. A sense of zetsubou was still hidden somewhere though, the nickname having scarred him.

[Jello]

Haruka stopped dead in his tracks. A cold wind blew, but that air only became fuel for the fire. He turned to Alex with a wry grin.

"Don't even think about it." He winked to Alex. Sera even had a bit to say but sort of just let Haruka say his piece. It was brief. But even Overlord was a bit scared of Haruka at the moment. It was rare he ever went dark on people but asking about his actual girlfriend like she was just free to do with?

You're downright insane if you think Haruka will let you get away with it.

[OverDrive]

The moment Alex's honesty kicked in was the moment that Haruka finally became serious, it was truly a sight to see, but it was definitely something to take note of. He would have felt the same way if someone referred to his Neu in a similar way, and he probably would have acted in a similar way.

Noticing the situation he stands between the two, his eyes piercing Haruka's in his gaze, "..Take it easy man, no harm done." he said, in a somewhat serious tone, as he began to turn to Alex.

"Honesty is a good trait, but be more aware of the boundary that you might cross because of it." he said, hoping that Alex would be careful of what he says the next time.

"..That was close." he thought.

[Cece Lockhart]

This was the first time Noel ever stepped into an actual school. All her knowledge from her private tutors couldn't help her here and she was barely at the front gate! Overwhelmed by the school looks, Noel stood there frozen not knowing what to do or to go. According to public school standards, she should be a third year.

This is crazy! This is how a public school looks?! It's huge! Almost like a maze! Where do I even start for my classes?

Noel looked more and more lost trying to figure out where her class was. Rosalia also mentioned the cardfight club but at this rate, she won't even find that.

"Ahhhh!! This sucks!!!"

[Hope]

Isabella didn't say anything in the meanwhile, she just increased her grip on Haruka-kun's hand just to tell him that she was there. The choice was his like she said, so she didn't mind if he walked out on her now. She silently started to continued walk on, hopefully bringing Haruka-kun with her as well. Hana just held onto her smile and waved at everyone who she passed by. Turning back over to Tsubaka, she asked.

"So hows Neu-chan doing?"

[AlwaysAwake]

Alexander blinked, a bit confused at the situation that had unfolded. "Hah, right. I see." He said as a bead of cold sweat dripped down his face that moment, not expecting that icy murderous reply. Nodding to Tsubasa soon after as he followed the group.

"R-right, my bad. Uh, sorry, Haru." Trying to apologize for the mishap, he wouldn't want to hinder the friendship he was just cultivating, though soon after he'd also snap on the conversation of the moment. "Oh, Neu as in like the one you carried out of that weird space place? The American champion right?"

Darren was barely able to find the school building when he woke up for class this morning. When he arrived inside, it was even worse. He didn't understand much of what was happening around him and he had little to no time to take in his surroundings. It was made worse by the fact that he wasn't the most studious person you would ever meet.

He was now in the hallway, his hand to the nearby wall as he finally took a moment to look around. I saw this coming, but its still harder than I though, he thought to himself. He tried to look around for some kind of clock for the time but they were all within the classrooms and he didn't want to step into one without needing to. The last thing he needed was another teacher saying things he had trouble keeping up with. The mention of a Cardfight Club was in his mind as well, and he had taken a Biology class earlier so he SHOULD know where it was. Should being the key term.

[Skyzlimitz]

The weekend was over and it was time to work. Sky walked into the school made his way to the janitors closet and pulled out a mop/bucket. "Time to work." Sky would mop the floors and perform his other janitorial duties today until it was time for the Cardfight club to meet.
