Chapter 49 Ethan=landmine

The lunch break is also nearly over. I glanced out of the window at the slightly noisy scene outside and left the preparation room. As usual, I walked through the corridor and headed towards the stairs connecting the terrace on the middle second floor and the second floor. However, just as I was about to take a step, I suddenly stopped.

"..."

Right in front of me, a figure with its back towards me, looking up at the second floor without any defenses, was hiding in the shadow of the handrail. I looked at this figure that was completely unaware of what was behind it with some surprise. Out of curiosity, I pushed that back with my fingertip.

"Whoa! Ah!"

That familiar back figure recently, or rather, that yellow head, jumped up in surprise with a shout, which was extremely interesting.

"Aaron, what are you doing here?"

"... You scared me. It's Blake."

Aaron showed a blank expression for an instant. After recognizing me, he dropped his hands weakly and lay down on the ground. Seeing him like this, I tilted my head and heard his deep sigh.

"Oh, Groove Blake. Where on earth have you been?"

"... I said, cut it out already. Don't call me like that. I'm not a song and dance performer or anything. Moreover, I'm not called this name anymore."

I frowned as I looked at Aaron sitting on the stairs and narrowed my eyes. However, he smiled childishly, which made me relax.

"How good is Groove Blake. It feels very noble."

"..."

Aaron ignored my aversion and grinned from ear to ear.莫名地, I got angry at his overly innocent face and pinched his slackened corner of the mouth and pulled it longer.

"Oh dear, please don't do such things while smiling, Blake. Your face with a dark expression is so terrifying! Actually, you're a sadist, aren't you."

"A guy with such accurate intuition is really troublesome."

My hand was suddenly thrown off, and I couldn't help frowning. Aaron's face suddenly turned pale.

"Whoa, sorry, sorry. I didn't see anything and I don't know anything."

Looking at Aaron's back figure hurriedly climbing up the stairs, I suddenly understood the feeling of Paul always teasing him. His reaction was too exaggerated and looked very interesting.

"Oh, Blake, you're so two-faced. You're all clingy in front of Ethan."

However, Aaron's words made my temple throb suddenly. This guy clearly looks so innocent, but why is his nose so sharp? It's really a question.

"Don't you say you didn't see anything and don't know anything?"

My voice mixed with a sigh unexpectedly became flat and emotionless. Hearing this, Aaron's eyes widened and he froze.

"Eh? This is also a landmine!"

"No, sorry. I didn't mean to threaten you."

Seeing Aaron being so scared, I couldn't help sighing for overdoing it. I didn't expect that person might be a taboo for me.

"Well, I won't tell anyone. Because it's really obvious that you're very happy when you're with Ethan."

"Ah?"

Aaron completely didn't notice that I was stunned by his words and kept shaking his head. Then for some reason, he stretched out his hands to block me and sat on the stairs again.

"When I saw you guys a few days ago, I felt that you really like her. Blake is considerate to everyone, but there's always a bit of coldness, right? But when you're with Ethan, it's really as warm as being in the sunlight. The atmosphere... Ah, eh? Your face has turned red, Groove Blake."

Aaron, who suddenly looked up at me, started chuckling. At the same time, the corners of his mouth rose, and there was a mischievous look in his eyes looking at me. Seeing his expression like this, subconsciously, or rather unconsciously, I pushed Aaron down.

"Wait, really spare me! I didn't mean that. I won't be happy even if you step on me!"

"Aaron, be quiet."

I covered Aaron's mouth who was screaming loudly. For some reason, a scream came from behind.

"It's all because you're making so much noise that you've attracted people."

"It's wrong for Groove Blake you to kick a poor classmate with your feet. Besides, am I in a situation of chastity crisis now?"

I clicked my tongue at Aaron who was chuckling lightly, patted his light yellow head, and stepped over his lying body.

"You've been poisoned quite badly by girls recently."

"In order not to become prey, it's easier to disguise by coloring oneself."

Aaron said this while considering it a way of dealing with people. As he spoke, he stood up abruptly, patted the dust off his uniform and laughed.

"Well, but quite a few people have gathered... What are you avoiding?"

As I listened to Aaron's way of dealing with people, I remembered my initial question. I tilted my head and looked at Aaron who looked blank all of a sudden. His face turned pale instantly.

"After all, it's wrong for Blake you to avoid the committee work!"

"Ha? I'm not avoiding it. I wasn't assigned to do it originally."

I frowned as I looked at Aaron who suddenly started slowly backing away. He suddenly turned around and ran away like a fleeing hare.

"I don't want double sadism at all!"

Aaron shouted something incomprehensible loudly and pushed aside the crowd and ran off.

"... I don't understand what it means."

"Me neither."

I murmured to myself as I looked at Aaron's back figure. A very natural response came - I turned around and saw an arm reaching out from behind wrapping around my neck.

At the same time, I clearly heard a shrill yellow scream coming from beside my ear.

"Paul, it's so hot. Also, don't bully Aaron too much."

Paul hung his weight on me like a pendant, and my body swayed instantly. I pushed his face away, but he still stuck to me tightly and wouldn't leave.

"It's too boring and there's no other way. If you don't come, the teacher won't come either."

"What did you say."

I don't know when Ben called this guy a big cat, but it's not that cute. I couldn't help but wryly smile at the weight he was pressing over without any courtesy.

"Don't mind me."

I heard his muttering with a sigh.

"You're still the same as always, really."

Actually, Paul isn't without friends, but I've never seen him take the initiative to be with anyone.

"As long as I have you, it's enough."

"Eh?"

I suddenly turned around to look at the loosened arm. But Paul's words were drowned out by the ringing of the class bell and I didn't hear them clearly.

"What is enough?"

"You."

"You two, the bell has rung. Go back to the classroom."

A voice suddenly came from below the stairs interrupting Paul's words. Hearing this voice, we reacted immediately.

"Blake, Paul, it's time for class. Go back to the classroom."

"Teacher."

I tilted my head slightly and looked at the figure slowly walking towards this side, and my cheeks relaxed naturally. Even though we were together just a moment ago, just seeing his face made my mood lighten up.

"Hey, teacher did it on purpose just now, didn't he?"

"..."

I looked at Paul strangely who was frowning at him rarely. For some reason, he hurriedly pushed my back.

"Hurry up! Go back to class."

"All right, but I like the teacher."

"..."

Under Paul's pushing and his urging from behind, I tilted my head in confusion.

"It seems like some interesting flag has been set up."

"I only feel... it's a death flag."

Of course, their conversation wasn't heard, but after school I saw Aaron being chased by Paul again.

It seems that Aaron seems to be quite liked by Paul.
