#15: P.E Is The Devil Spawn...

There are only ever two types of people during P.E.

The athletic, and non-athletic. Not much guessing

is needed to know which category I fall under. But if

anyone guessed non-athletic, then they're a hundred

percent correct.

And that is why I was jogging at the back of the pack,

sweating in non-mentionable places and pushing my

legs to finish the last lap.

"Hurry up, slowpoke!" Megan shouts as she runs past

me, and I groaned.

While Megan didn't play any sports, the girl was

full of energy, and she had no qualms with running.

She loved it. Hell, she even got into several running

matches against some of the football players in our

P.E. clasS -- all of which she completely dominated.

"Saint!" Our P.E. teacher blew on his red whistle. "Stop

playing around! You finished your laps three rounds

ago!"

"But I can still run, Mr. G!" Megan called back since she

already passed him, then with a push of her legs, she

ran even faster.

"Your friend's quite the energizer bunny, huh?"A familiar voice says from right next to me.

I felt my heartbeat kick up a notch as I slowly turned

my head to look at my new running companion. Did I

mention Ryuu was also in my P.E. class? Well, he is, and he usually runs at the head of our little pack with his athletic friends and teammates. But now, not only was he jogging next to me, but he was also talking to me! And smiling!

I opened my mouth to reply, but all that came out was

a wheeze that, thankfully, he didn't hear, so I nodded

and focused back on the track before me. The last thing I needed was tripping and falling on my face in front of Ryuu Gavril.

He chuckled. "Not a fan of P.E.?"

I shook my head.

He chuckled again. "'Same."

That made me look back at him, the disbelief apparent

on my face, if his reaction was anything to go by.

"Hey, I might love football, but that doesn't mean I like

P.E. It's a pain in the ass." He explained.

I can't help but gawk a little. For a moment, Ryuu Gavril wasn't the school's Golden Boy. For a moment,

he was just a classmate jogging next to me. Then, the

moment was gone. His friends started calling for him

from the front, and he sent me an apologetic smile

before running off to catch up with them. As I watched

his back, Megan came jogging up to me, also watching

Ryuu's retreating form.

"What was that?" She asked.

I looked at her and shrugged. I honestly don't know.

When I arrived home that day, a text from Ryuu was

waiting for me.

Ryuu:

"Thank god it's Friday, huh?"

Me:

"I have a theory that P.E. is Satan's firstborn."

Ryuu:

"I can see the family resemblance."

I still didn't know what to think of the afternoon's

events.
