Angel Beats

Masaru shared with Katsumi he didnt have a book.




"Ermm... chicken mayo.... and just water please" Haru replied softly.

Katsumi kept it in the middle for him




Hinata smiled 'ill be right back' he moved to go to the shop for her

Masaru read along as the teacher spoke out the story.




Haru looked around the room... she had been placed in a private room she noted... she closed her eyes she was scared... she didnt know what would happen to her now.

Katsumi traced the lines with her eyes


Hinata was rushing around getting her what she wanted

Masaru went to turn the page brushing his fingers against hers by accident.




Haru looked at her hands she was still shaking.

Katsumi blushed letting go of the page 'a-ah ... s-sorry' she whispered




Hinata soon returned 'i got everything you asked for' he smiled, it had been harder than one would think

Masaru smiled, "Its no problem" he whispered.




Haru smiled slightly, "Thank you" it was clear she was frightened.

Katsumi bit her lip, she was embarrassed by how much she liked him



Hinata passed her the food 'ill get you anything you want, any time'

Masaru kept reading.




Haru looked at him, "Why are you being so nice to me..." she whispered.

Katsumi kept up with the reading, but she kept glancing at him sometimes



'because i like you' Hinata sighed sitting down

Masaru turned the page again deliberately touching her hand gently.



Haru winced slightly, "I...." she shook her head, "I cant" she whispered.

Katsumi blushed looking down but she didnt move



'im not asking you to do anything at all' Hinata smiled 'dont worry, just let me look after you eh?'

Masaru smiled at her the bell went for break.



Haru was shaking slightly, "I dont think.... i dont think i can let you" she whispered, "Its hard..."

Katsumi sat in her chair, waiting, she was always the last to leave



'i promise i wont do anything you wont like, i promise... just let me stay near you at least' Hinata whispered

Masaru had his things packed away.




Haru gripped at the covers, "Just while im in here.... for now" she whispered.

Katsumi was just waiting for everyone else to leave... but of course they probably wanted to pester Masaru



'am i upsetting you?' Hinata asked looking down

Masaru gave the others a look clearly telling them he was not approachable and they all left.



"You... have to understand, its really hard for me just now" Haru whispered, "What happened..." she started to shake it truly was cruel.

one girl still came up to him 'ummm hi, im a friend of Katsumis, wanna switch seats with me next lesson so i can sit beside her?' it was the girl who sat next to Kiyoto, obviously Kiyoto had made her, so that she could get Masaru to sit next to her


Katsumi just looked down at her book



'i know, im not asking you to touch me, im not asking you to do anything at all... ill do whatever you want me to' Hinata smiled trying to be reassuring

Masaru shook his head, "No thank you"



Haru looked down, "Please... just give me some time... i would like your company" she whispered.

'ehhh? but Katsumis my friend' the girl protested



Hinata smiled 'thanks, thank you for even considering it'

"I said no" Masaru snapped.



Haru brought her knees up hugging them slightly as she looked at the door.... she was frightened but felt a bit more at ease with Hinata.

'why?' the girl asked putting her hands on her hips 'your new here'


Hinata smiled 'hey dont worry yeah? ill be your guard' he laughed

"Leave me alone" Masaru stated.



Haru nodded slightly, it hurt to move a lot as the pain killers had worn off.

the girl sighed and walked off to tell Kiyoto




Hinata smiled 'i think that nurse is coming to visit you today'

Masaru smiled at Katsumi, "Would you like anything to eat?"



Haru smiled slightly, "She was kind to me.... just like you... for no reason"
