When we arrive, we see tons of students surrounding the front door of the school, naturally, Issei and I head over to see what’s happening. What we saw, really shocked us. But what we saw was hilarious at the same time. There was a boy on the floor being pinned down by a girl.

The thing is, I recognize both of them. The boy being pinned down was Shinji Matou, I met him in Middle School and we were good friends until he started hating me one day.

The girl who was pinning him down was Rin Tohsaka. I haven’t talked to her much——— I don’t think she even knows me. There’s no doubt that most would call her the

”

Prettiest Girl in Homurahara.

”

” Emiya, we should head to class. We don’t want to be late, do we? ”

”

I guess you’re right.

”

Issei and I see Fuji-nee and another other teacher talking about something. I decide to not ask Fuji-nee about what she and the teachers were talking about when we get home. So, me and Issei just continue walking to our class.

After all my classes are over, I sit at my desk and contemplate whether I should go fix broken equipment which will help Issei, or if I should just go to work. I finally choose that I should help Issei so he won’t be upset with me like Sakura is.

And, I really don’t need the money from work, as Fuji-nee’s grandfather is covering for my living expenses and the like. I mean, I only got the job so I wouldn’t be a freeloader.

”

I’m here to help with the repairs, Issei.

”

” That’s great. ”

” So, do you have anything planned for me to do? ”

” Not anything major. But the heater I bought last month for this room stopped working for no reason. You can fix that if you would like to. ”

” I don’t really have anything to do if I just left and went back home, so I guess I’ll fix that. ”

Issei sits down on the floor next to the heater and wipes some of the dust off of it. I grab a screwdriver from my toolbox. Not looking in front of me, I trip on a different screwdriver that was laying on the floor and fall down.

————When I opened my eyes I saw that we w

ere in a very ” intimate ” and ” questionable ” position. Issei was lying completely on his back, his legs were spread out, and his eyes were closed. I was on top of him and our faces were close enough we could kiss any second. He opens his eyes and it takes him about a minute to assess the situation.

” EMI——ya… ”

He screams at first, but that scream slowly drifts away, as we both start gazing into the other’s eye.

”

…

”

” … ”

Neither of us have anything to say. We just continue to stare into each other’s eyes. The room gets filled with silence and I feel my mouth getting closer to his mouth every second.

”

————

”

Someone opens the door and interrupts what we were doing.

It was a teacher.

His name was Souichirou Kuzuki. He’s Rin Tohsaka’s homeroom teacher. He and Issei were practically like brothers, so I just start imagining about all the crap I’m going to be going through soon.

”

Issei, I need to talk to you for a second.

”

He had the same stern face and cold voice, despite the scene he just walked in on. Most people would at least be a little shocked should they see this, but he just remained the same.

”

R–right!

”

Issei pushes me off of him and walks out of the room. Kuzuki closes the door. Trying to keep myself busy from what was going to happen to us, I continue to try fixing the heater. I go and grab my screwdriver, which flew away from my hand earlier.

”

——Emiya.

”

Right before I can grab the screwdriver, Issei opens the door to the room, much to my shock.

”

———

”

”

Kuzuki has told me that I’ll have to go home and help with some specific things. And, you don’t need to worry, I told Kuzuki that the position we were in was an accident. But, he said that he wouldn’t care if I fell in love with someone of the same sex.

”

. . .

” ——N–not that I would! ”

”

Am I allowed to stay here until I’m finished fixing this heater?

”

”

You’re allowed to stay here until 8 PM.

”

With that, Issei takes his leave. He and I agree to never talk about what happened earlier, ever again.

After fixing the heater I fell asleep. When I wake up, I see that it’s nighttime. I get up and decide to go home. When I go outside, I hear faint metal hitting metal sounds. Suspicious, I keep on walking closer to the sounds. I’m eventually lead to the schoolyard.

There I saw a man in blue with a giant red lance fighting another man in red, with two daggers. This was definitely no facade, sparks fly as one’s weapon hits the others and their aggressive presence.

—–—And then…… They both turn their attention to me.

I immediately start running as fast as I can. I enter the school and I hear footsteps. One of them was definitely chasing me. I stop running, as I couldn’t breathe. I don’t hear anyone following, so I sigh a breath of relief because I’m safe now.

” I don’t have anything against you, but I’m going to have to kill you. Sorry. ”

I see the man in blue in front of me, my brain can’t process how he got there——Casually, he lifts up his lance and stabs me in the heart.
