Taming the Savage Nosebleed (1/4)

[anonymous]

Kanji and Rise were both in the same class at Yasogami High, but the two of them barely ever talked to each other. Ever since Rise had joined the investigation team, it had been quite clear that Soji was her favorite member, to the point of flat out ignoring everyone else. As for Kanji, it wasn't that he didn't like Rise; it was that she, like every girl, made him strangely uncomfortable every time she got too close. On top of that, she was a freaking idol, manufactured to be the type of girl that would give even regular guys nosebleeds. As a result, he tried his best to just avoid contact, for both their sakes.

So when Rise approached him one October day after class, Kanji just stared at her, mouth agape. The things that she actually said didn't help matters any. "Hey, Kanji-kun, wanna come over to my place today?"

Stare.

"Kanji-kun?"

Stare.

"Hellooooo? Earth to Kanji-kun!"

Stare.

"If you're gonna stare at me, could you at least close your mouth? You're gonna start drooling and that's one of my pet peeves. Creepy stalker fans who drool."

At long last, Kanji blinked and shook his head in a vague attempt to clear out the weird fuzzy feeling. "Uh, what?"

Rise sighed heavily and put her hands on her hips. "You. Me. My house. Yes?"

Was this some kind of date or something? Being a complete amateur at this whole hanging-out-with-girls thing, Kanji was seriously confused. "Uh. I guess?"

"Great!" Rise chirped, figuring that was as good of a reply as she was going to get. But that was the whole point of her brilliant idea, right? She led the way out of the classroom, Kanji following her with that weird dazed expression on his face. "I told the others that we're studying for exams together. Pretty smooth, right?"

All at once, Kanji snapped back to his senses. "Hang on a sec, Rise-chan. What the heck's this about? If we ain't studying, then what are we..."

"Why, I'm glad you asked, Kanji-kun!" Rise answered, spinning around to smile at him while continuing to walk backwards down the hall. "I'm gonna help you with that problem you have, once and for all!"

Again Kanji was dumbfounded. Problem? Yeah, okay, he had a lot of those; he was definitely the first one to admit that. So what the heck was she blabbering about? What problem was she going to try and fix?

They didn't talk too much on the way back to Rise's place. Rise was as bubbly as usual, humming one of her own songs to herself and practically skipping down the sidewalk. Meanwhile, Kanji was lost in thought, trying to figure out what exactly Rise was up to. What the hell problem did she mean? His problem with being mistaken for some kind of punk biker kid and getting picked up by the cops? His problem with thinking he might be gay (even though he totally wasn't, not that it mattered, but man Yosuke should shut his trap about it)? His problem with thinking it was pretty fun to sew cute bunnies and shit?

Once the two of them were alone together in Rise's room, Kanji knew he'd made a big mistake. She led him over to sit on her bed, practically pushing him down on the bright pink bedspread, then she skipped over to her desk and picked up a box of tissues. "Hopefully we won't need more than these," she said, walking back over to the bed and setting the tissue box beside him.

"Wh- what the hell's this for?!" Kanji stammered, eyes wide. Then his face grew hot and he looked away. There was only one thing he could think of to do with tissues, and he sure as hell wasn't about to do it with Rise in the room.

Rise clucked her tongue, hands on her hips again. "For your nosebleeds, silly. But don't worry! Rise Kujikawa is gonna cure you of that once and for all!" She had a triumphant look on her face, but after she finished talking it melted into something entirely different, something between a smile and a smirk.
