[Aiden's House]
Beep, beep, beep.
The sound of the alarm echoed through the room, making Saki stir under the covers. Still half-asleep, she felt Aiden's arm beneath her and tried to snuggle back in, using it as a pillow—but the annoying beeping wouldn't let her.
"Sorry," Aiden murmured, also awakened by the noise.
Saki felt him shift as he slowly sat up and reached over to turn off the alarm. As he did, he switched on the bedside lamp.
The soft light filled the room, and for a brief moment, their eyes met. It took Saki a second to get her bearings—to remember where she was… and what she had done the night before.
A deep blush rose to her cheeks, and she immediately pulled the blanket over herself.
What should she say? What should she do?
Those were the questions racing through her mind. She had no idea what to say, so she just blurted out the first thing that came to her.
"Good morning," she muttered, her voice low and nervous.
She heard a soft chuckle. Not mocking—gentle, even affectionate. Still, the embarrassment kept prickling in her chest… until she felt Aiden's arms wrap gently around her, pulling her back into him. Their bodies pressed together, skin to skin, sharing warmth.
"Good morning," he whispered back, and the sound of his voice calmed her.
Saki let out a small sigh.
"We're dating," she reminded herself. "I shouldn't feel embarrassed…"
Little by little, she relaxed and settled against him again, soaking in that comforting warmth. Several minutes passed, and just as she was about to drift back to sleep, Aiden's voice stopped her.
"I don't want to ruin the moment…" he murmured, his fingers brushing her cheek softly, "but we're going to be late…"
Late?
Saki blinked, not quite understanding what he meant. Then her eyes flew open.
"Crap! I still have class!" she exclaimed, abruptly sitting up.
She needed to get home and change into her uniform. Any shame about being naked in front of him was pushed aside. She leapt out of bed and started getting dressed quickly.
Just as she was about to leave the room, she stopped. She looked back at Aiden, her cheeks still slightly pink. Then she walked over to him, leaned down, and gave him a soft kiss on the lips.
"We'll talk later," she said with a small smile, turning around before he could reply.
She ran out of the room, still smiling and with her keychain in hand. She no longer carried just her house keys—now she had Aiden's too, which he had given her the night before.
Saki felt genuinely happy as she ran back home, with no regrets about what they had done.
There was only one thing she did regret: that it wasn't the weekend.
Because spending the morning together would've been perfect.
[Minami Middle School]
The classroom door burst open.
Saki, sweating and slightly out of breath, hurried inside.
"Just in time," she thought, relieved to see the class hadn't started yet.
Technically, she was late, but her rushed entrance went mostly unnoticed by her classmates.
That wasn't the case with her friends.
The moment they saw her, their reactions were immediate—and wildly different. Aiko gave her a wide grin and a thumbs-up in silent support. Yuna, on the other hand, blushed instantly, both hands flying to her mouth, her eyes wide with a mix of shock and embarrassment.
"What's with them…?" Saki wondered, confused, as she slipped into her seat.
She didn't have time to approach either of them before she felt something soft wrap gently around her neck. A scarf.
She looked up, surprised. It was Takae.
"Why…?" she managed to mumble, but didn't get the chance to finish.
Takae, her smile barely held back, held up a small hand mirror in front of Saki's face.
"If you're going to be naughty," she said with a teasing tone, "you should at least learn how to hide the evidence."
Saki's mouth fell open. In the reflection, clearly visible on her neck, was a small purple mark.
A hickey.
For a second, she froze. Then panic hit her like a wave. She grabbed the scarf and tried to cover the mark as best she could, her face flushing uncontrollably. Her heart pounded, and inside, all she could do was scream:
"No way!"
She looked to Takae, who was still smiling at her with a mischievous glint in her eye that she wasn't even trying to hide.
"You should cover those up better… Unless, of course, you're showing off," she added, placing a hand under her chin like she was giving it serious thought.
Saki shook her head rapidly, trying to defend herself, but she didn't stand a chance.
"Because if that's the case, I'll be very disappointed… and maybe a little jealous. You really shouldn't eat in front of the starving."
That comment was more than enough to make Saki go even redder. Redder than she'd been that morning waking up in Aiden's bed. The teasing gleam in Takae's eyes, her friends' reactions… it was all just too much.
And the worst part?
Takae was clearly enjoying every second of it.
Thankfully, the door opened again and the teacher walked into the classroom, putting an end to the moment.
"We're definitely finishing this conversation during break," Takae whispered with a light giggle before returning to her seat.
Saki, meanwhile, just wished the earth would swallow her whole.
[…]
A few hours later.
Saki was sitting with her three friends, all of them clearly dying to know exactly what had happened. But it didn't take her long to realize that Aiko was by far the most excited of the group.
"Spill it already!" she shouted, pointing an accusing finger at her. "And don't you dare skip the juicy parts!"
Saki let out a little laugh. Aiko's exaggerated attitude didn't bother her—if anything, it helped ease the tension she'd been feeling.
"Hey!" Aiko yelped, rubbing her arm after getting a light smack from Takae.
"Enough," Takae said firmly, pulling Aiko away from Saki. "Don't pressure her."
"'Don't pressure her'? Speak for yourself!" Aiko replied with a scowl. "I definitely want to pressure her until she tells me every single detail! Right, Yuna?"
"Don't drag Yuna into your depraved fantasies. You don't want to hear about it, do you, Yuna?"
There was a brief silence. All three girls turned to Yuna, waiting for her answer. But she looked away, her cheeks tinged pink.
"I'd… like to know what happened," she finally whispered, shyly.
"Ha! Two against one! Spill!" Aiko cried out, flashing a mischievous grin and pointing straight at Saki.
Takae just sighed, crossing her arms.
"Well, I guess there's no escaping this," Saki thought, resigned.
She had no intention of sharing anything too intimate, but a summarized version should be fine… right?
"Yesterday I went over to Aiden's place…"
"Hell yeah, Saki taking the initiative! How progressive!" Aiko cheered, clapping as if it were some great feat.
"Shut up," Takae muttered, jabbing her sharply in the ribs.
"That's not what happened," Saki rushed to explain, waving her hands. "I just went to bring him some homemade food. While I was there, he showed me around his house…"
"And then he took you to his room and you two did the 'Chiic chiic'?" Aiko started swaying from side to side, mimicking the sound of a creaking bed.
Saki buried her face in her hands, her cheeks blazing red.
"Shut the hell up!" Takae snapped, elbowing Aiko again. "That's definitely not how it happened."
Saki slowly lowered her hands, even more embarrassed now.
"W-well… i-it was kind of… like that…"
"Told you so!" Aiko laughed, pointing triumphantly at Takae.
"B-but not exactly like that," Saki tried to clarify, struggling to gather her thoughts. "He showed me his house, we watched a movie… and… well, one thing led to another…"
Her voice trailed off into a whisper.
Aiko opened her mouth to say something else, but instead, she went quiet for a second. Then she smiled.
"I'm happy for you, Saki," she said with a sincerity no one saw coming.
Takae raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised. "I'm impressed, Aiko. You're taking this better than I expected."
"Ha! I'll always be happy for my best friend!" Aiko declared proudly—though a moment later she spun around dramatically, clenched her fist, and bit down on it hard as a single tear rolled down her cheek.
"Why was I born…?" she muttered in anguish.
Saki couldn't help but laugh. Aiko's theatrics were always unpredictable, but right now, they felt genuinely endearing.
Amid the chaos, something popped into her mind.
"Oh! This happened too," she said, opening her bag and pulling out a keychain.
Her friends leaned in with curiosity, examining the keychain without fully understanding what they were looking at. It was Yuna who spoke first.
"You got new keys?"
Saki nodded, grinning from ear to ear.
"Yep! But not just any keys… they're to Aiden's house! He gave them to me so I can go over whenever I want."
For a moment, the three girls went completely silent.
Then Aiko lunged at her, visibly excited.
"Can I make some copies…?!"
"What?!"
Saki blinked, not sure whether to laugh or be horrified. Luckily, Takae handled it for her, shoving Aiko aside with an irritated snort.
"Ignore her. We are really happy for you, Saki."
Saki clutched the keychain to her chest for a second. Not just for what it symbolized, but for what she had now: loyal friends—even if they were a bit weird—who always had her back.
And that, she thought, was love too.
Just a different kind.
[Time Skip]
[Aiden's House]
Some time had passed.
Saki couldn't stop thinking about it. Even though it had only been a year since she started at Minami, it felt like time had slipped through her fingers. Compared to the years before—long, repetitive, heavy—this one had flown by.
"Time flies when you're enjoying it…" she thought, a soft smile curling her lips.
And she was, without a doubt, enjoying it.
In the mornings she studied, spent time with her friends—genuine, loud, loyal girls who made her laugh, with whom she shared secrets and dumb jokes. And in the afternoons… she got to go home.
To her home.
To him.
To her boyfriend. Aiden.
They could go on a date, cook together, cuddle on the couch while watching a show… or just talk.
And of course…
"Ahh~"
A trembling moan slipped from Saki's lips, her body shuddering on top of Aiden's.
Her hands were pressed to his chest, fingers clutching him tightly, her nails lightly digging into his skin. She could feel the head of his cock slowly spreading her pussy lips apart, pushing deeper and deeper inside her inch by inch, making her gasp in soft, broken breaths she could barely hold back.
…They could also fuck.
"Mmh… yeah…" she whispered, her breath hot against his mouth. "Just like that…"
The way he slid into her—slow but firm, brushing against every sensitive spot—made her arch her back in response. Her body reacted with hunger, getting wetter, craving more.
"Ever since that first time… we haven't stopped."
Saki smiled to herself, even as her hips began to move again, rhythmic, instinctive, riding him easily. The pleasure built inside her with every bounce, her moans mingling with the wet sounds of her pussy swallowing his cock again and again.
Most of the time, she was the one to initiate it.
"And why shouldn't I?" she thought, amused, biting her lip. "He's my boyfriend. I get to enjoy him, kiss him, love him… feel him as much as I want."
Aiden's hands intertwined with hers—warm, strong—sharing skin, sharing breath. They looked at each other. For a moment, everything paused. It was just the two of them. Breathing together. Living each other.
And that only fueled Saki's desire more.
She began bouncing harder, fucking him faster.
"Ah… ah… ahhh…"
Each movement made Aiden's cock slam into the deepest part of her, drawing out those sweet, choked moans from her lips.
Then, he let go of her hands.
"Ah…" Saki whimpered in surprise, just as Aiden's hands slid down her waist and grabbed her ass firmly. He lifted her slightly and with one smooth motion, flipped her onto the bed.
She landed on her stomach, thighs trembling, breath shaky.
She felt him again his cock pressing back against the sensitive, slick lips of her pussy.
"D-don't stop…" she begged, her voice hoarse, pleading.
And Aiden didn't disappoint.
He thrust into her with a hard, brutal, deep stroke.
"Ah—Aah…!"
Saki clutched the sheets tight, moans spilling out uncontrollably. Every thrust shook her body, every impact made her legs tremble.
The room was filled with the wet sound of her pussy getting fucked, the slap of skin against skin, ragged gasps and frantic breathing.
She could feel the way her insides clung to him, every fold of her cunt wrapping around his cock like it never wanted to let him go.
He pushed with even more hunger, a devilish pace that left no mercy.
And she, drowning in broken thoughts and a wave of pleasure that just kept building, could only think one thing: She had never felt less alone in her life.
And never so alive as she did now.
Aiden's lips crashed onto hers in a fierce, desperate kiss.
She answered him with equal intensity, their tongues tangling, fighting for dominance, sharing the heat that burned between their bodies.
As they kissed, Aiden gripped her ass tightly, lifting her just enough to hit the perfect angle to keep fucking her without restraint.
His thrusts became faster. Rougher.
"MMMHHMM!!!"
Saki moaned into his mouth as Aiden buried his cock inside her with a roughness that made her vibrate with pleasure. The tip slammed into her deepest spots, brushing sensitive walls that sent jolts of ecstasy through her.
Her fingers left the sheets and tangled in the back of his neck, holding onto him as they kissed harder—lust and overflowing love pouring between their mouths.
"The way he wants me…" she thought, her whole body burning. "That dominant way he takes me… the way he fucks me like he needs me… that's what drives me insane."
He broke the kiss for just a second. Saki met his eyes, bit her lip provocatively, then wrapped her legs around his waist, pulling him in tighter.
"I want all of you…" she begged through panting breaths. "Harder… fuck me harder…"
His hands left her waist and grabbed her breasts, rough and greedy—squeezing, pinching, playing with them as he kept pounding his cock deep into her. Each thrust made her body bounce against the mattress, her moans choked by the heat, the sweat, the frenzy.
Her nails raked down Aiden's back. Her legs gripped him, holding him in place. Her pussy devoured him desperately, clenching around him, pulling him deeper like it never wanted to let him go.
"Ah… ah… ah!" Saki cried out, breathless, feeling her climax build with violent force inside her.
"I'm… I'm gonna come…"
Her voice was a plea, a desperate moan, and it only pushed Aiden further. He growled, gripped her hips, and started fucking her with savage force deeper, harder, filling every inch of her pussy with reckless abandon.
"Ah! AH! YES!" Saki screamed, fully open, completely overwhelmed as the orgasm crashed through her like a furious wave.
She felt her insides clench around Aiden's cock with uncontrollable spasms, each pulse of pleasure shooting down her spine like lightning.
Aiden didn't last much longer. He thrust one last time, deep, shaking against her as his cock throbbed and released a thick, hot load inside her. One stream… then another… and another still.
Her pussy, still convulsing from the climax, overflowed with the mixture of his cum and her juices, leaking out and dripping straight onto the sheets.
"Ahhh…" Saki exhaled, her voice wrecked, legs trembling, mind blank.
The orgasm felt like it lasted forever. And when the trembling finally stopped, they remained there, just like that bodies still joined, still panting, sharing the same heat, the same heartbeat. Aiden held her close, still inside her, and their lips met in a soft, deep, loving kiss.
Saki closed her eyes. She felt completely full. Complete.
And most of all… happy.
Several minutes passed before Aiden finally pulled his cock out of Saki's pussy.
"Ah~"
A soft moan slipped from her lips the moment he did. As soon as he withdrew, a thick mixture of both their fluids began to ooze out, dripping slowly down her thighs and soaking the sheets below.
Aiden couldn't help but lean in and plant small kisses on Saki's cheeks, his hand trailing gently down her side.
"Who's a naughty girl?" he whispered playfully, nuzzling her nose with his.
Saki let out a soft laugh, tired but satisfied, relishing every second of his closeness.
They spent a few more minutes like that slow caresses, comfortable silence before finally lying down side by side, sharing body heat, sticky with sweat, their breathing gradually slowing.
While they lay there, Saki turned her face slightly to look at him. A spark glimmered in her eyes.
"I'm going to Megurigaoka," she said, unable to hide the smile on her face, waiting for his reaction.
And Aiden's response was exactly what she'd hoped for: a wide, genuine smile, followed by a strong hug that pulled her tight against his chest.
"Does that mean we're gonna spend even more time together?"
"Yes!" Saki answered with excitement, pressing her forehead gently against his. Studying at the same high school was going to be amazing. Being able to see him every day, sharing classes, lunches, walks after school… it all sounded perfect.
"And not just me," she added, even more animated. "Takae, Aiko, and Yuna are coming too."
Aiden raised an eyebrow, amused.
"Well, looks like I'll finally get to know them for real."
Saki blushed slightly. It was true that her friends and Aiden hadn't had many chances to spend time together. Their schedules always clashed, and although they had met here and there, it never felt like enough. But that was about to change.
At high school, they would all be together. More time, more shared moments, more laughter.
They were going to be a group. And she just knew they'd get along.
Life was smiling at her.
She was surrounded by people she loved, and who loved her in return. She felt desired, supported, understood.
And as Aiden's fingers slowly trailed along her bare back, Saki closed her eyes and smiled.
She was living fully.
And that, she thought, was beautiful.
[Megurigaoka Private High School ]
The sun was shining brightly that morning, and a light breeze played with Saki's uniform as she walked toward Megurigaoka. It was her first day at high school, and although a little flutter of nerves tickled her stomach, a smile naturally curved her lips.
As she reached the main gates, the first thing she saw was her group of friends waiting at the entrance, laughing and chatting with excitement.
Aiko was the first to move. She grabbed Saki's hand without warning.
"We have to hurry!" she exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.
She was, as always, the most eager one in the group. She couldn't wait to explore every inch of the high school. And who could blame her? Megurigaoka's facilities were next-level: state-of-the-art labs, soundproof music rooms, sports fields, eco-friendly greenhouses, solar panels, and self-sustaining water systems…
It was more than a high school it was practically a small, autonomous city.
Together, they explored as much as they could, wide-eyed and giddy like kids on the first day of school. But time flew. There was still so much left to discover, and classes were about to begin.
"We'll keep exploring during the break," Takae said calmly as they headed toward their assigned classroom.
Once inside, they took their seats. Saki could still feel that spark of excitement in her chest, as if this marked the beginning of something important.
And she wasn't wrong.
Only a few minutes remained before class started when the door swung open suddenly. A girl walked in with timid steps. She was small, nervous-looking, wearing a peculiar hat with cat ears stitched to the top. Her backpack, adorned with little white wings on the sides, gave her an even more curious vibe.
Saki couldn't help but think the girl was… cute. Weird, yes but charming in her own way.
Whispers quickly filled the classroom. Low voices, half-hidden giggles, curious or critical glances. The girl seemed to shrink into herself as she walked to her seat, visibly uncomfortable.
A knot formed in Saki's chest. That uneasiness… that feeling of not belonging. She had felt it before too.
"What can I do?" she thought, biting her lip.
That's when she noticed Takae, sitting just behind her, looking at her with calm eyes and holding out a sheet of paper.
Saki blinked, confused for a moment… until she remembered.
Takae had done the same for her. On her first day. A small act that had changed everything.
Saki smiled warmly. She took the paper and, without hesitation, began folding it carefully. With quick, nimble fingers, she crafted a small paper airplane simple, but made with care. Without making a sound, she gently tossed it toward the girl's desk. The plane floated gracefully through the air and landed right in front of her.
The girl stared at it, surprised. Then she looked up. Saki gave her a smile and motioned for her to open it.
With slightly trembling hands, the girl unfolded the plane and read what was inside.
A pencil sketch.
It was her little cat-ear hat, winged backpack and all smiling. The girl looked up again, eyes wide… but Saki was already standing in front of her.
"Hi," she said, her voice soft and warm. "I'm Yuki Takeya. Thanks for the drawing."
Her voice was gentle, but full of emotion. She smiled sincerely.
"I hope we can be friends."
"I hope so too," Saki replied, delighted by the light that had appeared in her expression.
Maybe she didn't know what the future held, but right then, she knew something good had just begun.

Author's Note:
I wrote this in one afternoon, using drafts from my past self. Even though I'm still not fully convinced about the style… oh well! Let's get to the explanations!
First of all, sorry for not uploading anything. The main reason has been a lack of time. I think another factor was that I just wasn't liking what I was writing.
Second, am I uploading chapters again? Mhmm… I think so. My other fanfic has been going downhill, and when that happens, I prefer to cut down on posts until I can better decide what I want to publish. So I'll be using part of that time to focus on this project. I still have about five more worlds to write, at least, and I also want to finish the Miraculous one.
To those of you still around, sending hugs and kisses! I hope you enjoyed the chapter, even if it felt a bit rushed—I had to wrap up this world to move on to the next. I already have several drafts for those other worlds.
Just a reminder: this story is a mix of fanfic ideas I've had or want to develop. This space works like a testing ground.
[Long explanation—you can skip it if you want]
I didn't really like how this world turned out. I thought it would come out better than it did. Mainly, I think the plot is too hard to understand because I was too ambiguous… at least I can admit that now.
To clarify: this world is a mix between Henshin Emergence and Gakkou Gurashi! (yes, that old zombie anime). Are there zombies? Or will there be? I'm not sure. I might continue this world… or maybe not… probably not.
As for the characters: Aiko Nakahara and Yuna Himuro are original characters of mine, but they're inspired by similar characters from the anime. [Image].
Takae Yuzumura does exist with that name hopefully someone caught the reference… oh well.
Tsumugi Katsuragi, the guy from the track club mentioned in the story, is also a character from that anime (he ends up becoming a zombie). And the dog I mentioned, the one with the old lady, also exists in the manga. His name is Taromaru.
Are you wondering if the zombies will show up soon? Nope. That would happen in their third year, and in this story they're just starting out, so that would be like two years from now.
Anyway, I hope you all have a lovely day.
Kisses and hugs!
