Day 4 of enjoying the school week with Hanako

"Y-/N-chaaaaannnnnn~"

'Oh dear.'

Y/N quickly hid the box of freshly baked donuts in her lunchbag, hastily putting a smile on her face.

She should've known Hanako would visit her first thing in the morning.

"Where have you been?" He groaned; he sounded almost childish. The ghost boy floated towards the girl, embracing her from behind.

"L-let go!" Y/N gently tried to swat him away.

"Too close?" He lazily peered down at her. "Too bad. I like it that way."

Y/N gave him her famous I-will-hit-you-if-you-don't-stop looks.

Hanako got the hint. He begrudgingly pulled away, knowing how painful her uppercuts were.

"Seriously, though." Hanako pouted. "It's boring being all alone! The Mokke wouldn't stop pestering me-"

"Geez, Hanako-san!" Y/N shook her head, laughing. "It's only been a day!"

"Felt like an eternity." He shrugged. Y/N blushed.

"A-Anyway, uhm..."

"So where have you been?" Hanako cut in, suddenly looking more serious. "Not to your mom again, have you?"

Y/N shuffled her feet.

"Actually, th-that's what I did..."

Hanako's eyes went as wide as full moons. He planted his hands on her shoulders.

"Why?"

"I wanted to get revenge, remember?"

Hanako sighed, his eyes half-slits in worry.

"What if you were hurt?"

"I wouldn't let her do that again." Y/N boldly raised her chin.

Hanako forced down a wide smile. He was proud to see how much confidence Y/N seemed to have these past few days.

"Well, if that's the case-"

His tight grip on her shoulders were making Y/N a little flustered.

"I was drawing!" Y/N hastily came up with another topic, hoping Hanako would pull away. Fortunately, he did.

"Oooooh! A drawing?" He marvelled, clasping his hands. "What is it?"

Y/N didn't expect to be interrogated so soon. She blushed, not willing to reveal her answer.

"W-well, I...."

She unfolded the paper she had drawn on from her pocket. The more she looked at Hanako, the more she was convinced she shouldn't reveal it.

Hanako frowned; rather than intimidating, Y/N found it made him look weirdly cute.

"Y/N-chan, I thought we were friends! Now you're keeping secrets~?"

"N-No!" She blurted indignantly. "I-It's just th-that-"

"Give me a hint at what you drew, at least!"

Y/N sighed, ruffling her hair. She awkwardly coughed.

"Well... when I draw, I draw things that inspire me and motivate me. Say for example a pretty flower."

Hanako looked unsatisfied by this answer.

"Really?"

"What?" Y/N harrumphed. "I gave you a hint-"

"Heya, Y/N-chan!"

Y/N jumped in surprise. Panic turned to relief instantly when she saw....

"Kou." Y/N smiled weakly. "Wh-what're you doing here so early in the morning?"

"What are you doing here so early in the morning?" He laughed.

"Oh, I-I was just-" Y/N turned to point at Hanako.

The place where he would've been was now thin air. Y/N's eyes went wide.

'Why did he leave?!'

"Hey, that's a nice drawing!" Kou piped up out of the blue.

Y/N's face heated up as she whirled around, whipping the paper from view. Kou blinked.

"What's the matter?"

"N-nothing..."

"Don't be ashamed!" Kou patted her shoulder goodnaturedly. "It's a really nice drawing of Yugo!"

Y/N looked at her feet to hide her furious blushing. Kou smiled in amusement.

"Why draw the transferee, though? Out of all things?"

"I've practically memorized his face," Y/N shyly confessed. "He's with me most of the time."

Kou furrowed his brows. Y/N felt a little nervous as his usually lively blue eyes darkned.

"All the time?"

"I-I mean, he was my first boy friend, so!" Y/N blurted. She wasn't exactly lying.

"Boyfriend?" Kou gasped.

"Boy friend!" Y/N corrected, blushing furiously as she put emphasis on the space.

Kou sighed in relief, running a hand through his hair. The worried look on his face didn't go away, though.

"Has he harmed ya? In any way?"

Y/N blinked. Why was he so worried?

"Look," Y/N folded her hands, looking at the floor. "Why would he harm me? In fact, he's doing quite the opposite!"

Kou looked incredulous.

"He is?"

"Y-Yeah!" Y/N spluttered, eyes shining as she recalled the ghost boy. "He's a bit of a pervert, but-"

"Heya, you two!"

Kou and Y/N looked up at the new voice.

There stood Yashiro, a wide grin on her face.

"Did you spend the night with Han- Yugo again, Y/N?" She teased. "You two are getting awfully close!"

"I DID NOT!" Y/N snapped.

Kou looked back and forth between the two friends.

"Well, you lot!" He grinned cheerily; he acted like he never had that serious talk about Hanako. "I see you have some girl talk! Fill me in about it later at lunch, alright?"

He waved in a friendly manner, then walked away. Y/N took notice of how his brother, Teru, was already there.

As if he had been waiting for him to come.

"Earth to Y/N-chan?" Yashiro waved a hand in front of her face. "You're spacing out again!"

Y/N blinked. She apologetically grinned at her best friend.

"S-sorry, it's just..."

"Ohhh nooooooo!" Yashiro striked a dramatic pose. "Can't choose between Kou and Hanako?!"

"Not that!" Y/N rolled her eyes, looking away to hide her blush. "It's just... Kou's been awfully worried. Almost like he's prodding me for answers."

This made daikon legs look a little worried.

"Answers?"

"He's suspicious." Y/N looked down at her feet. "He's suspicious about Hanako's identity."

Yashiro bit her lip, gently holding Y/N's hand.

"That's a pressing matter, but.. it's alright! We'll think of a cover-up story!"

Y/N smiled faintly, but her conversation with Kou still rang in her head:

"Has he harmed ya? In any way?"

Why did he ask?

When she thought about it, he was quite good with his knife skills. He could knock out Tobero and Futama without breaking a sweat.

She gulped.

Had Hanako killed someone before?

~ Later at Recess...

"Who's that guy?" Sabiro frowned at the confused crowd surrounding a blonde boy.

Y/N looked up. She was taken aback by who it was.

"Kou Minamoto." She replied.

"I WILL EXORCISE YOU!" He proclaimed pompously, blue eyes flashing with determination. "WATCH OUT, SPIRITS!"

Y/N and Sabiro were both weirded out.

"What's he doing?" He frowned.

"I haven't the faintest idea." Y/N trailed off, even more perplexed.

~

Later at Lunch...

"Heya, Y/N!"

"Hello, Hanako!"

"So why did my wisp say you wanted to see me? What's up?"

Y/N smiled shyly. She had set up a simple but comfortable picnic spot on the school rooftop.

"W-Well, you see..." She slowly pulled out the box. She opened it, revealing the batch of donuts she had cooked up the night before.

Y/N nearly laughed at the expression on Hanako's face. Like a child waking up to a pile of Christmas gifts.

"Don't tell me."

"Yes they are."

"Y/N."

She was grinning so widely it hurt. Seeing Hanako's expression of pure happiness really tugged at her heart.

"Do you like it?" She weakly asked.

"I LOVE IT!" He exclaimed, pulling her into a very tight hug. Y/N blushed furiously.

"I love you!"

"What?!"

"What?" Hanako turned red in the face as well.

"Uh, did you hear that...?"

"Wh-what did you-?"

"Nothing."

Hanako pulled away from the hug, hastily looking away. He began to scarf down a donut.

An awkward silence. Y/N cleared her throat, pretending that totally never happened.

"So, uh..." Y/N spoke.

"So how was-" Hanako said at the same time.

Both teens blushed in embarrassment.

"Wh-what were you going to say?"

"No, you first!"

"I insist-"

Y/N picked up a donut, also nibbling it. She stubbornly stayed quiet. Hanako let out a snort of amusement.

"Fine, then! I wanted to ask how your revenge went."

Y/N's eyes lit up. She pulled out the tests of A she had scored the night before.

"Just before I cooked your donuts, I slipped one of these under her pillow!" Y/N grinned evilly. "I can't wait to see the look on her face!"

Hanako rested his head on one hand, a small smile on his face.

"'That all?"

"Yes!" Y/N curled her hands into fists, grinning widely. "She said I'd never get above C, huh?! Well look at me now! I surpassed all her thoughts! Achieved the impossible! Frick you, mom!"

'Cute' was not enough to describe how adorable Hanako found her.

The ghost boy laughed, clapping in applause.

"Well, then! You certainly blew her away!"

"Of course!" Y/N looked at him brightly. "I totally kicked her ass!"

"Y/N!" Hanako gasped, scandalized.

"Yeah?"

"Did you just curse?"

"What's wrong?" Y/N frowned. "Kou says that!"

Hanako grew tense at the name.

'Kou.'

"Hanako-kun?" Y/N's proud stance faltered. "Wh-what's the matter?"

"Oh, it's nothing, really!" He waved dismissively. "It's just... I've been suspecting something about him. He can see me. He's growing suspicious of me."

Y/N's heart fell.

"Y-You noticed too?"

"Of course." Hanako sighed. He clasped her hands tightly.

"So that's why I have a favor to ask."

Y/N looked up at him intently.

"What is it?"

"My alias. Yugo." He started slowly. "I think I made it too obvious. You see, my real name is-"

Suddenly, Hanako's eyes grew wide.

"Y/N! STEP BACK!"

"NANI-?!"

Hanako dropped his donut, colliding with her as he tackled her down from their picnic spot.

"Aw, man! I missed!" A familiar voice whined.

Y/N's eyes widened in horror. Hanako slowly pulled away from her, gently forcing her behind a pillar.

"Hide there."

"Hanako-kun!"

"Your arm is injured! I can't involve you in this!"

"Kou!" Y/N gasped. "Why is he here?!"

"I don't think he saw you." His eyes were wide. "He's obviously come for me."

"Come to what?!"

Hanako's eyes darkened.

"To exorcise."
