The Ballroom

First topic message reminder :

The Ballroom.

Daemon sighed,"It was just a metaphor...don't get your panties in a twist now. I don't want to get into any trouble." he said placing his hands in front of him. "Jeesh, calm down. Your scaring Hiri and Riko."

Riko was scared and watched and listened to Ichirou.She shook in fear,hiding with Hiri behind Daemon

"Well, what are you going to do about it Ichi-kun?" He looked at the others and shifted. "You did make the personal choice to hang out with me, I didn't continue to bother you forever."

Hiri had been in a situation somewhat like this before, but sadly it wasn't at a safer place such as school.
She stood frozen as she had flashbacks of a day, that she got mugged by a knifed man, that left a scar on her upper arm.

She realized that doing nothing won't help and tryed to think of something she could do to calm them down.

"Oh, youdon't want trouble? Then stay out of it."
Ichirou returned his attention to Akira, raising an eyebrow.
"Not forever but just about 99.9%. And tell me, who's curiosity was jabbing at me the entire time? Besides that, I may have told you a few topics."

He rubbed his chin piecing what he said together. He smirked and turned to Ichirou. "I say maybe two years, but I understand everything clearly now. Perhaps we are not friends, however, to me we always are." He said with a more morbid tone. He laughed dryly and looked at Ichirou. "I give you the choice to hang out with me or not, however, it seems like you have no choice but to hang out with me. How delightful."

Riko looked up to Ichirou."It's not Akira-san's fault.he's your friend"

Hiri has no idea what they're talking about, but just agree's with Akira and Riko.

"Exactly, you are quite intelligent enough to understand, Akira. Precautions, as I call them."
Ichirou continued to face Akira while speaking to Riko.
"Don't speak as if you know everything about our past."

"I may not know everything but i know a little.You can't just blame him for what happened." She said to him.

Hiri steps beside Daemon, because he seems the less threatening at the moment and she still has no clue about what's happening..

"Precautions..." He smiled to himself and nodded. "Fair enough for me." He shrugged and stood up straight. "Riko-san, Hiri-san, it's fine. I have to say, I do share some blame into this. Although, I just can't help it sometimes."

"Honestly, if you think this is all about your simple confession, then you're incorrect. And I'm not blaming him, he knows very well what I'm speaking of, not quite denying it either."
Ichirou turned his head to both the girls, his eyes a deathly gaze.

Hiri trys to give a death stare back to Ichirou, but she doesn't look very scary.

He nodded understanding completely. "It's alright guys, I will take some blame." He swayed his hand and looked at Ichirou.

"That will be all then."
Ichirou turned and left the Ballroom.

"Umm... What just happened?" Hiri asked, still clueless as to what happened.

Riko shrugged."I don't know..."

"Oh nothing Hiri-san. The usual, it happens a lot." He said fanning out his hat.

"Okay then, he seems scary... Was he your friend?" Hiri looked at Akira with a confused expression on her face.

He rubbed his chin and nodded. "That's right! he's my friend." He said. "Yeah, he's pretty scary, but interesting which is why I like him."

"He does seem... Interesting... I'm sure he would be nice to get to know" I said in a hopefull tone.

"Oh yeah, definitely." He said, with little doubt and enthusiasm to his last statement. "Let's just say he gets even more interesting the more you get to know him."

"Could you introduce me to him properly sometime? I mean, I would'nt count the incounter a moment ago an introducion." She said and laughed.

Riko recovered from her shock and shook her head,sighing lightly.
