Chapter 20: Chapter 20 - Ice Cream

We all ran until the bell rang, once we heard that bell, we all dropped.

"Looks like that's it for today's class! No one finished?"

"Come on, back in my day we could do 100 laps easily!"

We're not in your day, are we you fucking ant-minded fuck.

I was practically gasping for air. I wasn't the only one though, we practically all were.

I laid there for like 20 minutes before Rio came up to me.

"Leo! Are you alright!?"

"No... I'm fucking dying."

"I couldn't find you at lunch, so I went looking for you, what happened?"

"That fucking gorilla made us run 10 miles..."

"Here, I'll help you up."

He extended his hand, I took his hand and got up on my feet. Looking behind me I could see that a lot of the class were still collapsed as well.

"Haah... I'll shower first than let's eat."

I was sweaty as hell.

Luckily, I was able to walk normally. I was better off than some of the others.

After I showered, I put on a clean uniform and went with Rio to the cafeteria. It was as full as always. We grabbed our food and then we sat with Taku and Ayaka again.

"Hey, sorry, we're sitting here again."

"I still don't own the table."

"Haha."

It wasn't as quiet as before, it seemed like the four of us had gotten to the small talk section of friendship.

"Wonderful weather today..."

"It is."

"Yeah."

"Mhm."

We all finished eating around the same time

"Are you going to practice again today, Taku?"

"Yeah. What about you, Leo?"

"Yeah, I figured out a sword style for me finally."

"Nice."

"Yeah."

"What are you gonna do Rio?"

"Hmm, I was gonna hang out with Kazu."

"Alright, have fun."

"I will, thank you."

"Are you doing anything sis?"

"Magic."

"Goodluck."

We all wished each other luck and went our ways.

Me and Taku walked to the gym together.

"What style did you decide to use?"

"It's called Lout Swordsmanship."

"Lout?"

"Yeah, I hear it's pretty uncommon."

"Is it good?"

"I think."

"Goodluck with that."

"Thanks."

We entered the gym and Ian, and Ms. Brent were already there.

"Hey Ian."

"..Hello."

"You're late Leo."

"Sorry, Mr. Lincoln tried to kill me."

"Oh. Never mind, sorry for being harsh."

It seemed like even the teachers knew about his training hell.

Taku and Ian decided to train together

Ms. Brent threw a wooden sword at me

"Alright, let's start."

It was time for another hellish training session.

---

"Your too slow."

She hit my hand with her sword.

"Faster."

She hit my hand again.

"You extended your arm too much."

And again.

"Kick there, don't slash."

And again...

An hour later

"Alright, I have to go do paperwork, keep practicing alone or with a friend."

She left.

Both of my hands were as red as a chilli pepper.

Ian and Taku were still practicing with each other, so I practiced alone for the next few hours.

"Alright, I'm done for today. Are you two going to keep practicing?"

"Yeah."

"..Yeah."

"Okay, good luck. I'll see you guys tomorrow."

"Bye."

"..Bye"

I left the gym and went to the track. There was still light out, so it wasn't too late.

I ran a few laps before I ran out of breath.

"Fuck... This is hard..."

"But..."

It's pretty fun... I never imagined life could be this fun before.

I went back to the dorm and took a shower before relaxing in the lounge.

"Oh, Leo! You've finished training?"

It was Rio.

"Yeah."

"Do you want to go get some ice cream then?"

"Huh?"

"Do you want to get ice cream?"

"Oh, sure."

We were allowed to leave campus whenever we wanted after school, but we did have a curfew.

"Is anyone else coming?"

"You can invite people if you'd like."

"If we see someone, I know on the way there I'll invite them."

"Okay!"

I didn't notice it before, but Rio's hair has gotten way longer. He even looks a little feminine now.

We left the dorm and ran into Ayaka and Ally, what a weird combination.

"Hey."

"Hi?"

"Do you two want to get some ice cream with us?"

"What?"

"Do you two want to get some ice cream with us?"

"I heard you the first time stupid!"

"Is that a no?"

Ayaka looked at Ally

"We'll go."

Ally talked

"Eh!? You're deciding without me?"

Ally looked at Ayaka

"Yeah."

"Alright, let's go."

The four of us started to leave again before we ran into Kathryn, the princess.

"Hey Kathryn."

"Hey Leo."

"Do you wanna get some ice cream with us?"

"Sure!"

The five of us got permission to leave the campus and started headed towards an ice cream parlor.

"How's your classes going Leo?"

"Miserable."

"Is that so?"

"Yeah."

"My teacher made us run until we collapsed."

"Oh... That doesn't sound good."

"It's not, I almost died."

"What about you Rio?"

"There good! My teachers and classmates are all really nice."

"That's good."

"I don't think I know your friends here Leo?"

"We're not friends!"

"That's Ayaka, and that's Ally."

I pointed at them.

"Don't introduce us like that!"

"Is that not your names?"

"They are! But!"

"Haha, it's nice to meet you, Ayaka, Ally, my name is Kathryn Vandersun."

"Eh?"

"EH!?"

"THE PRINCESS?!"

Ayaka had a funny reaction.

"G-g-greetings to"

"We're in school, remember? Class doesn't matter there."

"M-my apologies."

"What are you nervous?"

"You shut up!"

We all continued to have a conversation until we reached the ice cream parlor. It felt nice. It felt like I had school friends.

Wait. Are they school friends? I am in school? Fuck, I don't know.

"Welcome! What can I get for you all today?"

"Vanilla for me please!" Rio asked first

"You like vanilla Rio?"

"I don't know! I've never had ice cream before."

"Oh, me neither."

"You've never had ice cream before Leo, Rio?" Kathryn asked

"Nope."

"What!? You've never had ice cream before!?"

Ayaka always had the funniest reactions

"Then I'll get chocolate." I said

"Mint for me." Kathryn said

"Double fudge chocolate, chocolate chip for me!" Ayaka yelled

"You really like chocolate huh?"

"I do! And!?"

"Nothing."

"I'll have from this to this." Ally pointed at one side of the glass to the other side of the glass, she had ordered every flavor of ice cream...

"What!? Will you be able to eat that much Ally?!"

"Yes."

"Someone's a glutton."

"Wow that's a lot isn't it, Leo?"

"Yeah."

Kathryn was nice enough to pay for all of us.

We were all sitting at a table outside eating our ice cream.

"Hey Leo, you should sing us a song!" Kathryn said

"There's no way he can sing."

"Ehh? Ayaka, you haven't heard him sing yet?"

"No?"

"What about you Ally?"

Ally shook her head.

"Ehh!? Leo! You have to sing!"

"Yeah! It'd be nice to hear you sing Leo!" Rio said while poking my arm

"Alright."

I decided to sing a short song from my world, and the look on Ayaka's face was priceless. Ally just looked bland as usual.

"W-What!? What was that!?"

"He's pretty good, isn't he?"

"Good?! I don't think I've ever heard better- I mean... He's alright."

"Ehh? You should just admit it. What did you think Ally?"

"Good." She gave a thumbs up

After her shock calmed down, I started talking to Rio.

"How's the vanilla?"

"It tastes kind of bland, how's chocolate?"

"It's great, here try some."

He took a bite of my ice cream.

"Wow! That taste good!"

"Yeah."

"Have some of my vanilla!"

"Sure"

I bit his ice cream.

"You guys share ice cream?"

"What's wrong with it?"

"Nothing..."
