A chance

There's a figure with dark blue hair and green eyes, Hikaru is currently inside the infirmary. Not many people have a healing magic like him so he get assigned to help taking care of the infirmary and the patients.

Because there's nothing to do, Hikaru take out his favourite book and start reading. He remember that he and Akira will always talk about the book whenever they have free time. He sigh, he can't do anything now.

"Hey Hikaru. Where's Akira? I thought you guys will hang out together after school?"

"We didn't now"

Even Erma, the school nurse notice that Akira didn't show up a lot lately. Just like what she said, they will always hang out here after school.

Then, the door got kicked open which surprises both presence inside the room. At the door, Makoto is panting heavily while holding a figure, bridal style. Erma rush to Makoto's side to look at the figure then she gasped.

"Akira!"

Makoto put Akira on the bed gently while Erma get the bandages. Hearing the name, Hikaru rush to them. He look at Akira's conditions and he looks really bad. His head is bleeding and his body full of bruises.

"What happened to him?"

"I found him got beaten up by a bunch of bullies"

Hikaru look at Akira for a while then Makoto.

"You can go now, Makoto. We will take care of the rest"

Makoto look at Akira then nod. He go to the door and take a glance at Akira before he left. Hikaru look at Makoto leaving figure then look at Akira.Erma then come back with the bandages. She notice that Hikaru didn't do anything then she yelled.

"Hikaru what are you doing! He's bleeding!"

Hikaru come back to his senses when Erma yelled at him. He took out his hand and use his healing magic. Because Akira's injuries is really bad, he only heal the critical parts of his body and bandage the minor injuries.

After an hour, Akira become stable and now sleeping. Hikaru sit next to his bed and look at Akira's sleeping figure. After what it feels like hours, Hikaru sigh to himself. Then he heard a groan, he snapped his head up and look at Akira. Akira open his eyes slowly and look around then he saw Hikaru.

"How you feel?"-Hikaru

"Okay, i guess"-Akira

"What happened to you?"-Hikaru

He didn't know why he ask but he want the answer directly from Akira. Akira didn't answer and just keep quiet.

"Can i go back?"-Akira

Hikaru only sigh to himself. 'Knowing Akira, of course he won't say it because he didn't want to bother anyone' Hikaru thought to himself.

" You can go back tomorrow, you need to rest. Don't worry, tomorrow is Saturday "

"Its okay, I didn't want to-"

"This is the infirmary, the place to rest. Now you need to rest, Akira"

Akira hesitate but then he nod. Akira close his eyes and he off to the dreamland. Hikaru sigh again. He took his bag and leave the infirmary. He didn't worry about Akira since Erma is there to take care of him.

"Just what are you hiding?"

•••

In a hot and sunny day, a blond teenager with blue like ocean eyes, walking through the dorm's corridor. He's your typical prince charming with approachable yet a noble aura, Edward.

He's from the school library to finish his class project. With him got reincarnated  he finished it in two hours. The project actually need to send a month later but Edward want to finish it earlier because just like Makoto, he is busy.

Unlike Ken, Daichi and Makoto, Edward can easily interact with people because of his gentle self that make other people comfortable whenever they're with him and caused them to stick around Edward.

But only one person will avoid him. Yes, it's Akira. After that day he and the others told Akira to stay away from them, day by day, his presence started to get unnoticeable. Nobody will notice him, even if he's in the same room with them. Only a few will realize.

Edward also one of the people that didn't feel his presence which confused him. Edward is powerful, so are others, especially Makoto so they will certainly notice him but they didn't.

Edward will keep an eye on Akira but he  will either always lost Akira or got called by the teacher. Weeks passed but he keep losing Akira until he gave up.

Edward didn't know how long he has been walking but when he look around, he noticed that he's far away from his room. He turn around to go back but then he saw a room that's slightly open.

He don't know what gotten into him but he's walking to the door. When he's in front of the room, he hesitated to open it. He look around and realize that nobody is around even though its Saturday. Edward take a deep breath and push the door slowly.

"Here goes nothing"

He mumble to himself. He finally inside the room. He turn on the light and inside the room is an average dorm room. He sigh gladly and turn around to go out but something shiny blind his eyes. He look at the source and saw a light coming from inside the cupboard. He open the cupboard and saw a beautiful emerald pendant.

Edward take out his hand to grab it. The moment he touch it, a memories flash into him. He hold his head and groaned because of the pain. He saw a memories, a memories that certainly did not belong to him.

He observe the whole information while try his hard to endure the pain. After what it feels like hours, the pain stop. Edward put his palm to covered his left eye. Adrenaline rush inside him.

"Edward?"

Edward turn his head around and saw Akira at the door, shock is visible on his face.

"What are you doing here?"

Edward ask Akira. Akira look at him weirdly which confused Edward.

"Urm... This is my room"

Edward froze. He enter the room but didn't even check whose room he entered. Every room have a number and name attach to its right so it's easy to know whose room belong to.

"I just urmm... I saw your door slightly open and I urhh...."

Edward didn't known what to do. He ruffle his hair nervously. Akira continue to look at him confusely until he saw what's Edward holding.

"You! Where did you get this!"

Akira rush to Edward and snatched the pendant away. Akira glare at Edward furiously, telling him to explain.

Edward froze and didn't known what to do. This is the first time he see Akira angry. This is also the first time he got very close to Akira. He observe Akira. His beautiful emerald eyes is shining beautifully, his flawless and pale skin, his cute button nose and those kissable lips. Edward didn't realize before but he realized that Akira actually looks beautiful.

"Beautiful..."

Edward didn't notice that he mumble those words but Akira heard him which make him blush.

"Y- you..!"

Akira can't help but blush. Why he said that? He ask himself. Edward come back to his senses and saw Akira's blushing face. He look so cute, he thought and he laugh.

Akira get really mad and shout at him to shut up and stop laughing. After a few minutes, Edward finally stop laughing. He can't help it because of Akira's cute expression.

Then he remembered about the pendant that realize that Akira gets really mad when he found it. He decided to ask Akira. He don't know why he didn't notice it before but Akira is covered by bandage. How he notice? He saw Akira's arm is covered by bandage.

"What happened to you?"

This time, it's Akira turn to froze. He didn't thought that Edward will notice his bandage.

"I-I fell at the stairs"

Edward didn't believe him at first but he saw Akira is hesitate so he let it passed.

"Ok then"

Akira sigh in relief. But the next thing Edward say make him froze again.

"What about the pendant? You look angry when i hold it. Is it important to you?"

Akira bite his lips. He nodded his head slowly. He could feel his tears is threatened to fall but he hold it.

"It is. This is a gift from my late mother. She gave it to me when i was 10"

Edward saw the sadness in Akira's eyes and decided to not ask him any further. He thought that he should leave him alone.

"Okay then. I should go now. Sorry for intruding your room"

With that, Edward left and close the door. He walk to his room and sit on his bed, thinking about what just happened. He couldn't help but sigh.

He then remember what happened when he touch the pendant. Are those Akira's memories. He decided that he should gather everyone tomorrow and tell them about this.
