Chapter Text
Once again school has been going on as usual nothing note worthy, May is still pestering me but he's not making direct advances at me. In fact when we are in school he keeps things on the low-key, he's been treating me as any another student would to their teacher. I've seen him go out with his friends more and he even seems to smile more, I've seen him lay his head on Rei and been super close to Rei, maybe there was something blossoming between them, something romantic, maybe he was over me. Is what I would like to say, yes he wasn't that lovey dovey with me in school, but that's in school outside school....someway somehow May coerced me to give him my phone number.
"hey sensei, i've been having some trouble with math, can I have your number so you know...I can ask for studies," man I cant belive i fell for the blatant lie. obviously he only wanted my number to get closer to me.
May has been texting me everyday, even more than my ex-wife asking me to return back her cat (that cat likes me more than he has her), may always texts me about his day, ranting and even just blabbering about god knows what. Don't get me wrong I'm happy my student trusts me, but some of the things he tells me are just unnecessary, he keeps sending me selfies and I feel obligated to send him one back. I don't even know why I do this, I have no reason to do this, sure I gave May a cigarette but I'm pretty sure I would get into more trouble for sending selfies to a student, going on a date with him, getting close and touchy with him, honestly may has nothing that could possibly make me indebted to him, and yet I can't brush him off.
I was in the teachers lounge with a few of my colleagues when they started talking, "you know, kids these days are always throwing parties, always doing drugs and drinking and coming back to school all sluggish. It's so difficult trying to teach students like this! We are supposed to be one of the top schools in the country, and yet our students are going out doing god knows what". I looked over at miya, we have gotten closer these days, we sit next to each other in the staff room and our classes are near each other, plus we have a similar schedule, honestly he’s the closest one to a friend I have in this school. I watched as Miya spoke up, "well they are still teenagers, as long as they aren't hurt they should still have fun!". Miya is always a voice of reason! "Our job as teachers is to make sure that no one gets hurt, if a student doesn't get hurt in the party we should step in!", I thought about that for a while, if May was in these parties I'd definitely step in for him, no I wouldn't want him attend these parties in the first place.
It was later at night at around 9pm and I was laying on bed using my phone getting ready to sleep when I got a text message from May.
>May: "sensei are you awake?" Ah there he goes again texting me whenever he feels like
>Tenshi: "May, we talked about this, you can't text me late at night"
>May: "oh whatever, what are you doing?"
>Tenshi: "I'm getting ready to sleep, you?"
>May: "I'm going to a party."
Ah there it is, the very thing I was hoping wouldn't happen, but as long as he doesn't get hurt I shouldn't stop him from enjoying my teen years. As I was thinking what to say next May sent me a picture, it was his outfit, we was wearing a black off shoulder top with some jeans and a shiny studded belt.
>Tenshi: "it looks good on you."
>May: "doesn't it! Well I'll get going now!"
>Tenshi: ah...make sure you stay safe, ok? If you are in trouble text me"
>May: "alrighty, text you later, bye bye!"
>Tenshi: "bye bye"
I turned off my phone and closed my eyes thinking everything was going to be ok, I eam why was I worrying? May is a strong boy! He'll be fine! I just know it.
I kept telling myself that May will be ok but I just can't help but worry, I ended up staying up late all night instead of going to sleep, I was worried, I didn't know what would happen to him it was now 12.34am, I thought I was over reacting until I kept getting text messages from May, crap was he in trouble??
>May: "mhhh senseiiiiii"
>Tenshi: "May? What's wrong? Everything okay?"
>May: "senseeiiii I missyou" his words are slushy and messed up..
>Tenshi: "May, do you need me to come over?"
>May: "hmmm whyyyy, heheheh sensieiii I loveee uouuejej" his words are getting incomprehensible by the second, I was getting worried
>Tenshi: "May, where are you?"
>May "ermmm someone's houseee ...I think!
>Tenshi: "May, tell me whose house it is. Now"
>May: "ermmm some kid named yuki matsu smh? I don't remember"
>May: "ohhh some guys cameover I'll gonowbyebye senseiiiiiiu"
>Tenshi "may? May? Where did you go"
>Tenshi: "May please answer"
>Tenshi: "MAY I swear to god answer?"
>Tenshi; "I'm coming over to get you"
I started to worry even more on where May could have possibly gone, I decided to leave the house then and there to go pick him up, I opened my files and I found the address of the kid hosting the party, I immediately got into my car and drove there without a second thought, I wasn't about to let my student get hurt.
I finally reached there after a few minutes and I exited my car and walked closer to the party as I heard some shouting from not so far away "GET YOUR FILTHY FUCKING HANDS OFF HIM," I turned around in shock, there I saw Rei Sakuma holding what seems to be an unconscious May and a bunch of other school mates attempting to grab May and hitting Rei. The closer I got the more scars and injuries I saw on Rei, including a black eye.
Immediately rushed over, "hey, what's going on over here!" Upon seeing me the 5 boys scrambled away only leaving an unconscious May and an injured Rei. As I went and scooped up May into my hands carrying him bridal style I smelt alcohol on him, was he drinking? I'll make sure to give him a lecture on it when he's conscious "what happened here?" Rei looked at me and spoke up "May-san was drinking and those guys over there drugged his drink and then well...attempted to rape him", what the actual fuck, I listened as Rei kept talking "I saw what happened so obviously before anything more can happen i grabbed May, but they started getting violent with me, I managed to drag May out the party but God knows what would have happened if you hadn't arrived, thank you Tenshi-sensei", wow a lot happened thank God I followed my instincts "well whatever, do you know where May lives?" I asked rei and he simply shook his head "well, can I take him to your place?" "Yea sure that's fine by me, sensei"
I placed may in the backseat as he slept peacefully and I sat at the driver's seat with Rei sitting next to me in the passengers seat and I watched as Rei added his address in the GPS and we were off. Eventually we reached Reis place, a small but cozy apartment, it was an awkward ride since Rei didn't talk much but the focus right now is May. I carried May and took him into Reis room and laid him on Reis bed "where are your parents?", I asked "oh I live alone", that surprised me a bit, he's still in highschool "oh? Why, if you don't mind me asking of course", "nothing bad of course, they just wanted me to live nearer to school", as that made sense but that had me thinking, there is no one to supervise him what if he harms May? "are you sure I can trust you with May?" I asked Rei "why? You think I'll rape him? Geez if I wanted to rape him I would have joined the other guys not save his life and get this injured", right, that is a fair point, speaking of his injuries they are quite bad..."hey Rei do you have a first aid kit?", "yea why?", "can I borrow it?".
Rei was a bit confused at first and gave it to me, then I sat Rei down and treated this wounds, "this might sting a bit", Rei was a bit surprised but he nodded and just sat quietly as I treated his wounds "you know you may have a bad reputation but your actually good kid, thank you for taking care of May", Rei was silent before speaking up "I'm mostly doing all this cause I'm curious about him", what did he mean by that? I waited for Rei to continue"I mean he's super mysterious, I thought by getting closer to him I could know more about him, I guess it started of when I saw you and him on the roof together and you groped his chest, at first I thought you guys were romantically involved, now I realize it was simply one-sided for May", ah shit I didn't think I'd hear about that again "you saw us on the roof?", "yea but don't worry, my lips are sealed", oh thank God "thank you", "it's whatever", I let out a soft chuckle
After I finished patching him up I got up "well I'll go now", "yes, bye tenshi-sensei", I looked at him with a genuine smile "make sure to take care of May, and also treat your wounds", Rei smiled at me back "will do, sensei", with that I left the apartment. I closed the doors and looked back at it praying for Mays safety and I guess in extension...Reis as well as I made my way back to the car and went home.
