Bus

-Izume’s perspective-

I get on the bus to go home, I hate the bus simply because you have to WAIT FOR IT and when someone is getting on it stops and that means time is lost. It’s not like I can walk home because it’s going to rain soon and I didn’t bring an umbrella. ‘Why did uncle Yagi have that teachers meeting if I went home with him I wouldn't have to deal with this packed bus grrrr.’ “um I'm sorry you’re Jinx right?” I'm used to fans so I put on the best genuine smile I can muster and look at her. “Yes, hi are you a fan?” the girl starts to freak out, then covers her mouth. “I am… OMG why am I so slow, please take my seat!” I wave my hand to dismiss the offer. “I couldn't, your support is enough but thank you so much for the offer.” She looks kind of disappointed and then perks up. “I know! If it makes you feel better let's trade your autograph for my seat, that is if you don't mind?” I smile at how genuinely adorable she is. “Of course you can have my autograph but are you sure you want to give up your seat?” she nods her head frantically and we switch spots, once I’m sitting she pulls my special edition keychain from her bag for me to sign. ‘Awww it's really flattering that she carries that around~’ “Thank you so much, oh this is my stop bye and thank you again!” I wave bye to the girl with a smile on my face. ‘That makes this bus ride not seem so bad now, and I can just go through social media until my stop.’ I look down at my phone scrolling though completely ignoring everything else around me and we go over a particularly big bump, suddenly I’m being pinned to my seat by someone. When I see who is above me I’m shocked “K-Ken?!”

I'm so frustrated right now ‘I can't believe I lost to that damn nerd Finral. If I had been more patient and not used up my flames for one big attack and instead spread them out for multiple small attacks I could have come out the victor of that training.’ I'm so mad I end up walking further than I had planned to, now I have to take a different bus home. I get on and there's no seats left; I'll be dead before I touch one of these filthy polls, I would rather fall. After about half an hour the bus is almost at my stop, I’ve made it so far with only a little stumble here and there until the bus hits a bump and I fall forward. ‘Better then getting an STD from a poll.’ I caught myself on the back of one of the bus seats, the position is a little awkward but it’s nothing I can’t brush off. “K-Ken?!” I look down at the girl who said my name and realize it’s that pop star that got to train alone with Banshee today.

-Izume’s perspective-

Ken gives me a look of annoyance and scoffs before standing and getting off the bus. I still have a few more stops to go but after what happened I’m just lucky Ken isn’t a pervert. I get off the bus and even though I’ll be late home I take my time walking.
