He just stood there, crying and crying, unable to stop the tears from falling now. He couldn't see the turmoil that was fighting within Satomi, as she stood there, unsure how to help him, unsure what to say. Even though he was like this, she didn't run away, no, she stayed. If he'd been a bit more aware of his surroundings at that moment, he would have been surprised she was still there, that she wasn't gone, like everyone else might have been. Through his tears, he could hear her speaking, or rather sort of hear her, since she was speaking so quietly it was almost as if she were mumbling. But he still got the gist of what she was saying, and he slowly, so very slowly, began to calm down, though the tears still fell from his eyes and down his cheeks.<br/><br/>Haru was shocked from his crying when he suddenly felt arms wrapping around him from behind, his eyes grow wide. "Huh?" He mutters, sniffling a bit, before realizing what was going on. Satomi...was giving him a hug? That...that was new. However it didn't last long, and she steps away from him, but now he was feeling a bit better, though now he looked more a mess than ever before. What she was saying, he heard...but it wasn't registering quite yet, due to the fact he was still shocked she had hugged him. Touched him, like he wasn't garbage that came out of the trashcan. And yet, she was saying she'd...help him train?<br/><br/>"I...I d-don't know if that would help...now." He replies, his voice sounding unsure. Iruka-sensei had already told him he'd be failing, so what was the use in trying still? And how was he supposed to help her? She was already so perfect, yeah, she was a bit shy, but she was smart, and good at everything she did, her grades were amazing, and she was pretty. So, why? Why was she asking for HIS help? It made no sense at all. "Do...you think Irukai-sensei would pass me still? I mean...he already told me...I failed." He frowns, saying it out loud made it feel that much more real, that much more permanent. "And...well, the final exams are in just a couple of weeks, or whenever Iruka-sensei contacts us...right?" He couldn't remember if what they'd done was the final exams or not, since he really hadn't been paying attention. Just thinking that made him feel a bit more hopeful, maybe there was some way he could actually graduate this time.<br/><br/>Looking up from the ground in front of the apartment, Hibiki sighs softly to himself, before turning around. This was just a pointless and meaningless waste of his time, he didn't even know why he bothered coming in the first place. That moron didn't need him, that was for sure. He grits his teeth in annoyance, even without him realizing it, Haru was STILL being a pain in the ass. He places a hand to his forehead, a headache starting to form now. Closing his eyes for a second or two, he takes a deep breath, trying to will the pounding sensation in his skull to die down and go away, but it kept getting worse instead. Great.<br/><br/>Opening his eyes now, he glances around, spotting a ledge where he knew he'd be able to see the top of the apartments, and into Haru's own apartment where the bedroom window was. He got a rather odd deal, since the place he was given was the attic area, but inside it was rather nice despite the location of where Haru was living. It had a weird upper/lower sort of thing, where a short set of steps led up to where his bedroom was, his bed right next to the opening where the stairs were. In the further back area of the bedroom was a sort of closed area with a second window, which had a small seat and was sort of like a balcony where the window opened up. This whole thing was like a mixture of two bedrooms, since there were two beds placed up there. Sometimes when they were kids, Haru and Hibiki would have sleepovers and the extra bed was dedicated to him, Hibiki. He shakes his head, now was not the time to reminisce about that sort of nonsense.<br/><br/>Jumping up on to the ledge of the other building, he was surprised to see that Haru was up on the roof, and he wasn't alone there either. Satomi from their class was there too, and from what he could see, she was trying to comfort Haru about something, since even from where he was perched, Hibiki could see the tears that were gently gliding down Haru's cheeks. Which made him feel a bit guilty, wondering what had caused the usually smiling and happy Haru to cry. Frowning, he narrows his eyes, deciding to just wait there where he was and see what happened.<br/><br/><div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px"><div class="quotetitle"><input class="button2 btnlite" onclick="if (this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display != '') { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = '';      this.innerText = ''; this.value = 'Hide'; } else { this.parentNode.parentNode.getElementsByTagName('div')[1].getElementsByTagName('div')[0].style.display = 'none'; this.innerText = ''; this.value = 'Show'; }" style="text-align:center;width:100px;margin:0px;padding:0px;" type="button" value="Show"/></div><div class="quotecontent"><div style="display: none;">Haru's apartment:<br/><a class="postlink" href="https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/be/a0/42/bea04236ea328ba9d3cd79b958c8533f.jpg">https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/be/a0/42/bea04236ea328ba9d3cd79b958c8533f.jpg</a> (Kitchen, sitting area.
