Erik Silva is a shy, timid high-schooler who had a troublesome life before entering first year of his high school. Due to his mother's passing when he was only three-years-old, his father always acted coldly towards him. He didn't have many friends growing up as he slowly became isolated in school. He was often bullied by boys and girls because his tenderness made him an easy target. In middle school, he was more so isolated than bullied; other than by a few girls. One of the girls was Sakura Akane, who was especially mean towards him, looked at him as if he was a weak person, unworthy of calling himself a man, and would make his life miserable with the help of her friends. Silva's daily middle school life consisted of being isolated with Sakura bullying him out of his daily seclusion.
Erik was hoping to turn a new page in life by changing his surroundings when he enrolled in Tashimami high school. Much to his surprise and shock, Sakura, along with one of her middle school friends, also enrolled in the school, to make matters worse, in his class, 1-B. At first, he pretended not to recognize her. As things were progressing, he began seeing a familiar path. He didn't want to allow himself to follow the same destiny as his middle school days. He got a part-time job at a restaurant and devoted himself to making new friends in school, or, a friend at least.
The dream was short lived. He created superficial acquaintances and Akane was soon back to 'work' which consisted of name calling, pressurizing, and locking him up in empty school classrooms. He didn't understand why she was so eager to torture him on a daily routine, with her friends helping her on rare occasions.
In one instance, when P.E. finished, Erik was told by the teacher to clean up the hall and had Sakura help him out. Sakura made him do everything, causing them to get locked in the storage room. He noticed her figure for the first time. Indeed, Sakura Akane was a gorgeous girl.
Weeks passed as Erik Silva's feelings for Sakura Akane slowly changed. He hated himself for fantasizing about the girl who made his life a living hell. He didn't understand why he found Sakura attractive. Not knowing how to deal with these new feelings he closed himself in a shell. As he increasingly shut himself in, Akane's bullying increased, seemingly because of it.
It was night and Erik Silva was in his bed pondering what he was feeling and how he could approach the situation, the moon shown through the glass pane, as Erik fell asleep.
Erik opened his eyes and to his surprise he was still in class, while the rest of the class was vacant beside one individual. Akane stood there viewing the scenery through the window. to then notice Erik awaken, she lodged the chair towards his desk. she then laid her knees on the chair approaching Erik. as an act of self-defense Erik raised his hand; to then be struck down by hers. Akane leans forward having her left hand latch on to Erik's shoulder. Erik stood there fazed at her beautiful figure. Akane tilts her head and dives straight toward Erik as their lips entwine.
One day, Sakura was returning early from her school club feeling sickly. She didn't pay attention and crossed the red light unnoticingly. She noticed a car driving directly towards her. She froze in place, closed her eyes, then felt a strong push across her body, throwing her off balance and causing temporary black out. Tire tracks were on the road, but it was too late. When Akane regained consciousness, she saw a young man lying on the road. Upon checking herself, other than a few scratches and bruises, no serious wounds were apparent. Getting back on her feet, she walked slowly to the young man's inert body lying on the ground, to find out who pushed her away from the car. It was Erik Silva.
Seven weeks passed. Erik was still wearing a cast on his right arm upon returning to school. Some minor injuries were still visible from the accident. The two hadn't seen each other since. When he entered the classroom, all conversation dropped. It was the first time ever he was noticed entering the room. Everyone was staring at him in silence, including Sakura. Behind him was their homeroom teacher, Prof. Sachi. The teacher smiled at him gently as she was welcoming him back to the class.
The next day, Erik ran into Akane while walking to school. Akane angrily said to him not to expect anything just because of what he did, notifying him that she just gave him some time off until he returns to normal. Erik wasn't expecting any kind of praise anyway, even though he was slightly hoping for some. Atmosphere in the class changed. People started noticing him more. He thought to himself how ironic it is, that the accident caused him to receive more attention. More days were passing as he removed final cast on his arm and his body rejuvenated. As he stood in class, for first time not bent, it was obvious he was rather well-built and somewhat taller than an average guy. He caught the eye of several girls.
Third semester began. Sakura waited for Erik on the school grounds after the bell rang and began her usual procedure. He wasn't opposing her, but she felt a cold rush through her spine. The atmosphere was different as well. He was looking straight into her eyes and threw her off guard, as if he was looking into her soul. Continuing, she asked him the reason why he saved her trying to conceal her nervousness by asking in a nonchalant way, although he could sense it behind her voice. He was mute. She asked him again, in increased anger and volume. He was still mute. She repeated even louder. Followed by a small break, he firmly said: "Because I like you." She was completely distraught by it. Staring at him not knowing what to do, she yelled at him and hit him in the left arm. Silva twitched a bit, since she hit the same spot where the accident occurred, as there is a small scar now. "Don't be such a weakling!" As she yelled, she had a concerned look on her face, implying she wasn't planning to hit his injury.
"I'm fine, really."
"You won't be after I'm done with you."
"I'm fine with that, also. I don't need anyone else noticing me. I don't mind being bullied by you. The disturbance you were causing me can't even compare to the feeling of worthlessness and solitude I was going through each day of my life. Although I can't lie, what you were doing to me did hurt, but at least you were the only one acknowledging my existence. The moments I spent with you ordering me around made me feel alive."
A single tear drop came rolling down from her right eye as she took several steps away from him. She exclaimed, "Get away from me... y-you... you idiot! You're a weirdo!" The next day when their eyes met Sakura was so surprised that she suddenly fell from the top set of stairs and hurdled on top of him. Realizing the position that she was in, she quickly got to her senses. "Are you alright?" Erik asked her, offering his hand. However, she slapped his hand away as she yelled out, "Don't touch me!"
As several days went by, things began to change as both Erik and Sakura continually ran into each other. Nevertheless, Erik would continue to observe Sakura throughout the day. As Sakura entered the classroom, as Sakura put on makeup, or even as Sakura mingled with her friends. One day Sakura finally noticed his gaze. Once she noticed him looking at her, it immediately made her uneasy. As Erik was walking away from classroom back to the shoe lockers he encountered Sakura upset, ordering him not to look at her, but he refused. She suddenly became angry as she tried to slap him, but he stopped her hand and gave her his first kiss. She completely turned red and was immobilized subsequently. "I can't stop looking at you because I love you," He said to her.
As days passed, Sakura became more aware of Erik. She would even blush at the sight of him. It was her first kiss too, yet she wasn't aware of her feelings yet. She ordered him to meet her at rooftop at once.and told him, "How dare you steal my first kiss! What are you going to do about this situation Erik? You better take responsibility for it!" And so he replied with, "Then, please go out on a date with me, then I'll take responsibility for loving you." Her face went red as she unassuringly muttered back, "Are you kidding me? Who would want to go out with you?!" Erik replied, "I'll take you somewhere fun, and if you don't like it, you can hit me as much as you want when we're finished." She replied with an bitter grin, "Well, since you made such a tempting offer I suppose I'll have to accept your offer. I'll make sure to hit you as many times as I want if you mess up my day! So, you better be ready for pain!"
As their "date" grew closer, the excitement of both Erik and Sakura was apparent, although she was hiding it well. When the day finally arrived, Sakura tried really hard not to enjoy it, giving off her usual cold attitude. First they had lunch, then he took her to an arcade house. Movies were next, and then they went for a walk in the park. Unavoidably, after a while, the mood set in and she became relaxed as if she became a different person. He then grabbed her hand. After an initial startle, she allowed it saying, "I'm only allowing it since this is a date, don't think I like you, because I don't!" At the end of day Erik asked her whether she enjoyed the date. She childishly replied: "Hmpf, who could enjoy something like this!" Erik smirked as he leaned over her shoulder and whispered, "You're right, I forgot to kiss you." He then gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek as he whispered, "Now you have my second kiss, just like my first." Sakura paused for a while as her face became red. She then muttered, "You call that a kiss? This is a kiss!" Sakura playfully put her arms around Erik's neck as she reached up for a kiss. Erik's eyes went wide as he slowly closed them accepting the situation with a smile as he put his hands on her hips. They both walked out towards the sunset as the birds chirped in harmony.
