    Summary

    “What I mean by all this is that I have a proposition.”, she looks him straight in the eye, not allowing her voice to tremble. “Since neither of us has experienced it yet - Akihiko, would you kiss me?”
    xxx
    Realizing that every Dark Hour could be her last, Mitsuru wants to know how kissing feels and Akihiko is happy to help. This does not mean that there is anything more between them - she sees him as a partner at best, and he would never date such a troublesome girl.
    Right?

    Summary

    It's hard to be upset about anything when he has a girl in his room, and not just any girl but ohmygodChidori. About half the time that's what her name sounds like in his head.

    Summary

    The way Junpei Iori made Chidori feel was sickening, disgusting, and twisted inside her like creepy vines. Everything was so violent and it hurt, so terribly, to know that this was a feeling she would be forced to get used to if he came back around.

    God, did she want him too come back around.

    Summary

    Junpei sat as awkwardly as ever on the bench next to Chidori, kicking his feet against the pavement and trying to resist the urge to look over her shoulder at what she was drawing in her sketchbook.

    Summary

    Sighing, Chidori drops her gaze and flips to a blank page in her sketchbook. She scoots towards the edge of her hospital bed, hooking socked feet over the side and gesturing for Junpei to come closer. When he does as instructed, Chidori presses her pencil into his hand and folds his fingers over it. Her fingertips are slightly chilly, and smaller than Junpei’s—not that he’s focusing on them for long, what with the pencil and all.

    “Whuh,” Junpei says, articulate. He blinks, then looks up at Chidori. “Aww, c’mon, Chidori, you don’t have to teach me.”

    “I don’t have to do anything,” Chidori responds, bluntly. “You’re wrong. I’m not a professional. And even if I was, it still wouldn’t be a problem if you wanted to learn how to draw. Everybody starts somewhere.”

    It’s the sort of advice a teacher would probably give him, except it does sort of mean more coming from Chidori. Still, Junpei is apprehensive, and some—or all—of this must show on his face, because Chidori’s cheeks puff out slightly and she looks away.

    “...You don’t have to colour inside the lines,” Chidori says.

    ---

    Chidori teaches Junpei how to draw.
